I am the Pope in the Western Fantasy World

After everyone left, the exhausted Phil Gray planned to rest for a while. After all, even the most powerful God-favored One has not yet gotten rid of his dependence on sleep.

As soon as his body touched the soft bed, he fell into a deep sleep.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but in a state of half-sleep and half-wakefulness, he seemed to feel something curled up beside him, and he couldn't help but wrap the quilt tighter.

The thing trembled slightly and rhythmically, and made a slight breathing sound.

Phil Gray woke up instantly, and when he reached into the quilt to feel around, he unexpectedly touched a ball of furry warmth.

He sat up in surprise and pulled back the quilt, only to see a black cat curled up beside his legs. It was the dark night that should have been a million miles away from him!

How did this cat get here?

Phil Gray couldn't help but pick it up and stroke its shiny, smooth fur.

Could this little guy be the legendary Son of the Night?

Hei Ye found that he was awake, raised his eyelids, and said in a resentful voice: "You heartless guy, you didn't even take me with you when you left, and now you are sleeping so soundly here, it's too much!"

The cat's voice was a bit vicissitudes and hoarse, like a weathered middle-aged man, which almost made Phil Gray lose his balance.

Should he be surprised that the cat could talk, or should he be surprised that such a cute cat could speak in an uncle's voice?

"Ahem, we couldn't defeat Elder Memphis at that time, so we had to let you follow him. We didn't forget you and were planning to find time to pick you up, but we didn't expect you to come here by yourself." Phil Gray put Hei Ye on the bed and watched the cat stand up and stretch.

"Hmph, if I weren't an ordinary cat, I would have died there with that old man." Heiye snorted and lay down lazily again.

"Excuse me, are you the Son of Night? The Lord God who controls the power of night?"

Phil Gray asked bluntly.

"No problem. You just found out now? I thought you knew it when you named it." Hei Ye licked his paw. "Looking at it this way, you are really lucky. You named it just right."

Who knew it would be such a coincidence? Phil Gray never thought that the cat he casually named Night would actually be the Child of Night.

He now had to believe in the power of fate.

"You just said that you and Elder Memphis almost died there? Where was it?"

"The three people hiding in the turtle shell and secretly doing trouble are from the gods. Speaking of which, that old guy is really reckless. He rushed over when he saw his granddaughter and even dared to challenge the gods. Although they are three guys who are not presentable, they are still gods. If I hadn't rescued them in time, more than half of Chenxi's people would have died there." The night said disdainfully, its four legs together, head held high and chest puffed out, looking like the most powerful cat.

"So the darkness just now was you using the power of God to save them?"

"Hmm, what else? Fortunately, I absorbed that part of the fragments of the Kingdom of God and accumulated some strength, otherwise I would have lost my life again."

"Thank you for saving them." Phil Gray couldn't help but touch its head, but then he realized whether his action offended the gods.

But when he saw the Night purring comfortably, he sighed in his heart, why was the Son of Night not a cute little boy as in the legend, but instead a middle-aged uncle who kept saying "Laozi"?

Or maybe his voice just sounds a little older?

In fact, the image is still a little boy?

But since he was a cat now, he swallowed his doubts.

"No need for you to thank me. When I return to the Kingdom of God, I will personally find the Prophet of the Day to get a thank-you gift." Hei Ye squinted his eyes, still looking like he was enjoying it.

"What happened to the three gods? Have they freed themselves from their possession of humans?" Phil Gray asked the question he was most concerned about.

"No, my power is very limited. It's not easy to save those people, not to mention it's not that easy to get the gods to remove the possession. If I'm not careful, these three humans will die." Heiye glanced at him and said in a deep tone.

"Then do you know why no other gods came down to earth to stop them? I heard that many believers of many religions prayed devoutly for the gods to come down."

"The powerful main god might be busy and may not be able to spare a hand. Even if the less powerful gods come down to earth, they are no match for them. Those three guys are quite difficult to deal with.

“Besides, they didn’t take the initiative to do anything that would bring the human world to the brink of destruction. And because of the possession that restricted some of their strength, most gods just turned a blind eye. With so many believers, they wouldn’t care too much if a few of them died, as long as the human world still exists.” A humane sneer appeared in the dark pupils of the night.

"Also, do you know...about the Gods of the Abyss?" Phil Gray asked.

The Son of Night was murdered by his servant, the Goddess of Dreams, and fell about a thousand years ago. I don't know if they appeared at that time.

"I know, Dreams are in collusion with them, otherwise how could I fall into that bitch's hands." Speaking of the Dream Goddess, Hei Ye seemed particularly angry.

"By the way, how did you survive? Why did you turn into a cat?" Phil Gray asked curiously.

"I'm a cat, so what can I do? Don't you know that cats have nine lives? Or are you prejudiced against cats? You seemed very happy to touch me just now, put your hand up!"

Heiye rolled his eyes, and Phil Gray continued to serve the cat with his hands in a daze.

"The gods of the secret abyss appeared so early?"

"It should have been even earlier. If it weren't for... oh, anyway, they secretly infiltrated this time and wanted to disintegrate the gods of Weir from within. Many gods became their lackeys, such as the three subordinate gods. They were never liked by other gods in Weir, so they secretly defected to the gods of the secret abyss."

"Earlier than when?" Phil Gray heard the unfinished words.

"This is not something you should worry about. It's not good to know too much." Heiye squinted his eyes, looking mysterious.

"Okay, then do you know how to gain power besides becoming a favored one of the gods?"

"What? You also want to kill a god and seize power?" Hei Ye looked at him in disbelief.

"Oh, of course not." Phil Gray told the cat about the God of Destiny's plan to create an omnipotent god to fight against the gods of the Abyss, causing the cat's eyes to widen.

"That guy will actually fall into the hands of another god one day? That's so funny! If only I were there, I would really like to see him in such a miserable state!" Hei Ye laughed.

It seems that these two gods have some conflicts? But they are not enemies, otherwise this cat would not be so friendly to its believer - himself.

"But I have to say, His idea makes sense. As for the way to gain power, the fragments of the Kingdom of Darkness had a certain effect on you, right?"

"Yes."

"That's right, because you already have my divine power in you."

"When? Was it that tuft of cat hair?"

Phil Gray looked toward the night in surprise.
