“With Gaia and Zeus in this situation, it seems a bit unlikely to get along well with a grandchild, right?”

“…” Qin Muye felt this thing just didn’t cut it.

“???” Qin Muye, with a face full of confusion, wondered why this was impossible. You, a non-scientific Lamp God, create something scientific, so why can’t you manage this? Isn’t that a bit unscientific?

“Sorry, Master, I refuse to fulfill this wish.” The Lamp God’s aura flickered uncertainly, nearly collapsing, but then the failsafe left by the Hecate Goddess took effect, allowing the Lamp God to quickly return to normal.

“Sorry, Master, this wish cannot be fulfilled for the time being,” the Lamp God said.

“Don’t make wishes that would cause me to collapse, the Witchcraft Goddess of the night isn’t here right now, and if I were to collapse, you might not be able to find someone to repair me.”

“The Earth Mother Goddess is here, we should discuss your affairs,” Hades said with a solemn expression, putting away his smile.

“When the time comes, we can try connecting the Lamp God to the reserve magic power of the Magic Pool. That would be interesting.”

“Don’t worry, helping me make a tuning fork is very simple.”

“Forget it, from your situation, magic is a complex field of knowledge and doesn’t suit me,” Hades said.

“Fine, enjoy yourself. What brings you to me all of a sudden?” Qin Muye asked.

“The good news is this thing can buff attributes, but the bad news is it isn’t very durable.”

“In that case, why don’t you…”

“Cough, may I make a wish?” asked Qin Muye.

“No problem, I…” Qin Muye had just begun to speak when the Lamp God interrupted again.

“No problem, I’ll make sure it’s a reasonable request. Give me the knowledge related to the Perpetual Motion Machine,” said Qin Muye without hesitation.

“Magic power? Is that what you just learned from the Hecate Goddess?” Hades walked in and casually asked.

“Then can you create things out of thin air?” Qin Muye finally reacted and asked.

“Can… I suppose.” If it was before, the Lamp God would have confidently said no problem, but now he couldn’t, who knew what Qin Muye might ask him to create.

“Oh no, do you want to learn? I can teach you,” Qin Muye didn’t mind being overheard. He knew Hades and Persephone were aware of the situation in his domain and had offered a lot of help.

“Let’s not trouble you further, just increase my intelligence,” Qin Muye said with some resignation; it seemed nothing was working with this Lamp God.

“Typhon is dead, you know that, right?” Hades said.

“The great King of the Gods is enjoying himself every day, so what’s wrong with me enjoying myself a bit too?” Hades retorted stubbornly.

“I didn’t expect you’d actually be able to find the Earth Mother Goddess, but are you sure she’ll cooperate with us?” Qin Muye was a bit puzzled.

“I understand what you mean,” Qin Muye suddenly realized. Did Gaia attack Mount Olympus because she was unhappy with Zeus taking the throne from her son Cronus?

“I’ve been quite busy recently and don’t have much free time,” Hades refused.

“Learning is endless, you’re idle every day and not working, it’s better to learn more, so you don’t get deceived someday,” said Qin Muye leisurely.

“Or maybe, you can explain to me Schrödinger’s cat—the concept of…” Qin Muye began to outline the theory, thinking it wouldn’t be bad to solve it as well.

“Kind of useless, huh? Seems like you can’t solve academic issues,” Qin Muye felt the Lamp God was truly lacking.

“Master, I’m afraid I need to go back into the Divine Lamp to rest for a while,” the Lamp God said with a pained expression, looking utterly drained.

“Respected master, could you make your wishes one at a time, please?” asked the Lamp God.

“Respected master… how about we switch to something else?” the Lamp God struggled to find words, knowing he couldn’t create the requested item. Maybe sending it to the Fire God Hephaestus could work, but surely he himself couldn’t manage it.

[…]

[Lamp God…]

[The Lamp God has fulfilled your wish, your Power Attribute…]

[The Lamp God has fulfilled your wish, your Knowledge Attribute has permanently increased by 30 points]

But now, since Persephone had become addicted to melodramas, she was counting on Qin Muye, and he didn’t feel right about intervening.

The Lamp God’s complexion changed upon hearing this. Was his uselessness the issue here? Were these things even normal wishes?

The Lamp God, feeling as if he had received a royal pardon, dove straight back into the Divine Lamp.

The Lamp God was also scared, Qin Muye was the wildest person he’d ever seen.

The Lamp God opened his mouth, “I can’t do it, Master.”

He could study it later when he had some free time; it wasn’t a big deal.

At first glance, the Lamp God really couldn’t tell, but soon he realized he couldn’t create it at all.

Then the Lamp God’s figure seemed a bit dim, looking as if he’d overspent his kidney energy.

And creating things out of thin air sounded nice, but Qin Muye doubted it was possible. If it were, then it wouldn’t be the Lamp God anymore; it would be a BUG.

What can you do?

Hades’ face darkened. If it weren’t for the fact that the other party was of his own bloodline, he would have shown Qin Muye what the might of the Netherworld King was.

Fine, this family’s generations were already a mess, but their relationships were even more chaotic.

Upon returning to the Netherworld King Palace, Qin Muye took out the Divine Lamp and rubbed it, and the Lamp God appeared once more.

It’s that villainous face that looks somewhat dark and sinister after being serious, not upright at all.

In this situation, in a few hundred years, there might just be a Wage-Working Netherworld King on stage.

Seeing this sentence, Qin Muye’s eyes lit up, “Come on, repeat that wish you just made.”

Qin Muye nodded, “You do seem quite busy, busy watching dramas and playing games. To be honest, you don’t really resemble a Netherworld King.”

Qin Muye suspected it was because his own rank was too low, which was why the Lamp God couldn’t do it.

Qin Muye suspected he might also become sinister and fierce… oh no, wait, that’s a description for being handsome. He should be gloomy, after all, he’s ordinary-looking and on the villain’s side; he couldn’t possibly be glamorized.

Qin Muye waved his hand, “Off you go, get some good rest. I’ve got lots of wishes here that need your help to fulfill.”

Qin Muye realized it was his lack of rank, and then he discovered that the Lamp God seemed to be able to increase other attributes, right…

As Qin Muye spoke, he drew a tuning fork on the blueprint. It looked fine at a glance, but a closer look revealed a significant problem.

And then there was no more after that. Zeus’s life was not yet over; he struck Typhon to ashes with lightning, and with the brave Hercules helping, the rebellion was swiftly quelled. No one dared to challenge Zeus’s rule after that.

The cracks on his body had disappeared. Hecate must have healed him, but the Lamp God’s look at Qin Muye… was a bit off.

The Divine Lamp, granting wishes isn’t something he could do. He could perfectly serve as a wish-granting RBQ for their territories, granting every Spirit Monster a turn to enhance an attribute. Perhaps a little less, but a mosquito’s leg is still flesh.

Numerous reminders kept popping up, his various attributes skyrocketing, and they were the permanent kind.

The two of them couldn’t possibly follow Qin Muye to guard his domain; they’d spend most of their time in the Netherworld. Therefore, they brought him a lot of Treasures, and Persephone, the former goddess of seeds and grains, brought him an abundance of miraculous crop seeds. Food was definitely not a worry, and they could be used for attack, defense, and so on.

He pondered for a bit and decided to lower the difficulty.

On one end, it appeared to have three cylindrical bases, yet at the other end, it inexplicably only had two rectangular corners.

The Titan Divine Race didn’t practice any Cultivation Techniques or Realms. They relied more on their strong physiques and inherent Divine Authority, which means they were naturally powerful.

In fairy tales, anything can happen.

One doesn’t visit a temple for no reason; the other party wouldn’t have the time to spare to find him. Although it was just two steps away, he would only look for Qin Muye if there were really a matter.

Because this shape was quite contradictory, being both trident-shaped and U-shaped, it created a special sense of visual confusion.

A Perpetual Motion Machine, ah, or rather, Knowledge. With this Knowledge, he would have infinite Magic Power. The Magic Source, this Divine Artifact, is nothing in comparison; it can’t last forever.

This move was quite Underworld-like, and then Qin Muye also recalled something. Gaia, from the perspective of bloodline, was his grandmother? And the direct type at that.

It was a “shared line” spatial contradiction figure.

Of course, he knew about it. Back when Typhon brought chaos to the divine beings on Mount Olympus, when he made a mess and even cut the tendons of Zeus’s hands and feet.

Normal people wish for wealth, beauty, and power, among other things, but his request almost chilled him to the bone. It was truly peculiar.

All he could say was that he had latched onto a powerful thigh; resources were not something to worry about anymore.

It could only be used as a status-increasing moving BUFF for now.

Zeus was Gaia’s grandson, who fought for his uncle’s position, but grandmother was unhappy, so she birthed an uncle to fight her grandson.
