Ascent of Hero on the Dragon Throne

"That's exactly why I don't want to be this Godly Genius. That kind of life doesn't interest me in the slightest. I would be unhappy," Rocky stated. He harbored strong feelings about being a god.

"But there are many types of gods that each have different responsibilities in the worlds. For example, the Holy Lord that is in charge of time records things that he observes but he can never interfere. We are not like him. We are in charge of the world's balance, and we can interfere and adjust things in the world as we see fit. Our only downfall is that our power is too strong and we can't directly interfere with the mortal world. That's why we need to select some Godly Geniuses and grant them divine power.

He must improve his strength, and he must improve other aspects too. If I remember correctly, the former Godly Genius focused on martial cultivation and that was it. As a result, he perished soon after he went to the battlefield. I think it's better to teach Odin my medical skills first. Then, he can at least save his own life. Isn't that ideal?" Esteban chimed in.

"You have a point. But he can't fall behind in his martial cultivation. That is most important." Gilbert thought Esteban's words were reasonable, but he wanted his way no matter what.

"Don't worry, sir. I will supervise him. We are leaving now." Once again, Esteban winked at Rocky.
