This is no different from Gnathe's surprise. He can somewhat understand the resonance of the hourglass being a creation from the master of time, after all, he didn't personally make the hourglass. However, this Phantasmal Void Blade is indeed something he crafted with his own hands, truly a creation of his own plaything.
It's like having two children, one biological and one adopted. It's acceptable for the adopted one to run away, but it's outrageous if the biological one does the same!
" This little girl's talent is quite strong!" Gnathe's expression behind the mask changed for a moment, with his evaluation of Sakuya in his mind escalating rapidly, the more he looked at Sakuya, the more he liked her.
"This is a Phantasmal Void Blade projection, little one, if you like it, just take it!" Just a Phantasmal Void Blade projection, Gnathe couldn't care less.
"Well, thank you, senior!" Although Bexia didn't know how powerful this Phantasmal Void Blade projection was, it seemed like Sakuya quite liked it, so Bexia thanked Gnathe on her behalf first.
"What's your name, little one?" Gnathe asked.
"I'm Bexia..." But as soon as Bexia finished speaking, he realized he had spoken out of turn, because Gnathe wasn't asking him, but Sakuya, who was holding the Phantasmal Void Blade.
"...Yes! My name is Sakuya!" Sakuya immediately responded after regaining her senses.
"Gnathe nodded."
"Clap—!" Gnathe clapped his hands, and suddenly blocks of rules materialized out of thin air, stacking up into tables and chairs in front of Bexia and the others. With Bexia's spatial power, he naturally felt Gnathe's handiwork. This was true void creation.
Of course, it wasn't about creating items out of thin air, but using the power of space to create objects. As long as the power didn't exceed Gnathe's, those creations would look identical to real products to others. Moreover, unlike natural items, his creations were all of void attribute, each item would be highly sought after by spatial power practitioners.
"Clap—!" Gnathe clapped his hands again, and this time, instead of void creations, transparent fruits and liquids appeared, containing the power of time and space. These were extremely rare treasures of the time and space type, any of which would cause a commotion if taken out.
To Bexia and the others, Gnathe's hospitality seemed generous, but to Gnathe, it was just useless stuff. If it weren't for his lack of collections and had to find things from this time-space crack, he would feel like flaunting his status by treating them with these items.
Gnathe's hospitality was greatly beneficial to Bexia and the others, but to him, it was just ordinary, not worth his trouble since they were just juniors, not worth his elaborate arrangements.
"Sakuya, right! Come over and let me see!" Gnathe suddenly said.
"I..." Sakuya hesitated, looking towards Bexia.
"If you want to go, go ahead!" Bexia encouraged her with a look. Although he wasn't sure how powerful Gnathe was, being a master god, how weak could he be? Besides, can an ordinary person address the title of master of time and space?
Most importantly, Bexia saw Sakuya's talent, a rare dual talent in time and space. Such talent was extremely rare, but equally rare were those who could teach such talent, and Gnathe was one of the top existences in this aspect.
Considering everything for Sakuya, Bexia thought it would be good for her to get closer to Gnathe!
"You can inquire about Ophelia's news, this senior will surely know..." Bexia also whispered to Sakuya.
"Yeah! Sakuya fights!" Sakuya nodded immediately after hearing Bexia's words, feeling guilty about her weakness regarding Ophelia's matter.
Sakuya shyly approached Gnathe, looking at the empty cup in front of him. As a young maid, Sakuya naturally reached out to fill it for Gnathe, which instantly improved his mood.
There were too many people who flattered Gnathe, to the point where he could just mention his name, and countless people would seek his favor, even if they had to kneel before the master creator god, he wouldn't spare them a glance if he didn't like them.
But now, he was looking at Sakuya, feeling that everything she did was to his liking, and involuntarily, a smile appeared under his mask.
"Little one, would you like to be my disciple? How about I give you both the hourglass and the Phantasmal Void Blade?" Gnathe said lightly, reaching out to pat Sakuya's head.
"I..." Sakuya glanced instinctively at Bexia, blushing slightly.
Gnathe couldn't tell Sakuya's thoughts yet. Seeing this, he smirked. If Sakuya was just a student seeking help, he wouldn't say much, but if she wanted to be his disciple, he would have to take it seriously. And he didn't think Sakuya could slip away from his grasp, how could a little kid escape his manipulation? After all, he had lived through more terrifying moments than all present put together.
"Do you like him?" Gnathe asked with a smile, how could he, with his astuteness, not see through Sakuya's thoughts?
"I..." Sakuya was still very shy. Although Gnathe had hit the nail on the head, she didn't want to admit it, especially since they were so close, being overheard would be embarrassing!
