Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects!

Chapter 68.1: Hurry and Take My Brother to a Party With the Wives of Others (1)

[Justice]

That was the name of the supreme existence in the Nether Realm.

In reality…

It would be a grave mistake to confuse the seemingly positive divinity of Justice with Order.

To begin with, there was no such thing as good and evil in this world.

The Nether Realm controlled by the evil gods and the upper world's God Realm ruled by Order were not opposites by nature.

The Order gods were not something that had existed since ancient times as well.

This was a young race of gods that were created by the Crystal Goddess, Order, thousands of years ago.

Before Order was born…

The Nether Realm was the only kingdom of gods.

The gods of the Nether Realm were born from the chaotic emotions of the mortal world and grew continuously using them as nutrients.

If one were to classify the emotions of all living beings, in a certain sense, Justice would be the most dangerous.

While it seemed honorable on the surface, it was often laced with many blood debts that were difficult to resolve.

All living beings believed in their personal righteousness and destroyed everything else without reservations. From the slightest disputes to the cruelest battlefields, all strife in the mortal world seemed to possess the figure of justice lingering in the air.

When one understood that there was no absolute right or wrong in the world, the word justice would suddenly seem strange.

The motley crowd sang the glorious songs of justice and scattered destruction and atrocities everywhere.

Therefore, justice had another title…

The God of Strife.

The inferior nature of mortals made it impossible for the world to produce a 'good god' under normal circumstances.

The moment a flawless god was stained by the will of all living beings, they were destined to be evil gods that were plagued by evil.

Only existences with special divinities such as Order could break free from the corrosion of the evil thoughts of mortals and the gravity of the Nether Realm to ascend to the firmaments.

Disregarding Order…

Among the gods born from the emotions of all living beings, Justice was undoubtedly among the strongest.

With the advantage of her divinity and personal strength, Justice became the new generation's master of the Nether Realm.

And now, in order to break free from the shackle that has been binding her ever since she was crowned, this Nether Realm Empress…

Had descended into the mortal world.

When the last fiend was bombarded to sludge by the cannons of the dwarves...

The Blood Empress finally opened her eyes from her embryo.

Naturally, the being that had just descended into the mortal world was not the actual body of the Blood Empress.

This was a projection of the evil god that was born after devouring the death and hatred of all the fiends.

However, this mere projection was not something that any mortal creature could defend against.

As the final bit of nutrients was drained from the corpse of the Abyssal Sacred Vow, turning into ashes and floating away...

"Living beings of the mortal world! Hello, hello! How are you guys doing?!"

The Blood Empress swept her gaze across the army of the dwarf kings with disdain and revealed an arrogant smile.

Instantly, the battle turned into a massacre.

What happened next was not the spectacular scene of the Evil God Empress riding alone against a thousand people, waving her sword and releasing magic to solo the dwarf army.

That was because these low-level mortals were not even worthy of the Empress drawing her sword.

She merely chided softly.

"Clear the place!"

Under the absolute authority of the evil god, the weak dwarf army was controlled by the Empress's divinity and their blood boiled!

Bang!

A dwarf exploded from the inside and scorching blood ignited his body like gunpowder.

Thereafter…

Dazzling blood splattered and spread through the entire battlefield.

The dwarves looked at the beautiful figure of the Blood Empress in shock.

Thereafter, their eyes bulged and their bloodlines expanded until their bodies exploded.

The elite army of the dwarf dynasty exploded and died from a mere decree of the evil god!

Instantly…

There was only flesh and blood left on the spot.

With a single thought, the Blood Empress bestowed the bloodiest destruction upon the 10,000-strong dwarf army.

The Heavenly God Fleet in the skies was also filled with a tragic blood stench.

The crew of the warship were all slaughtered.

The self-regulated AI that remained followed through with the final orders of its pilots, firing wildly at the Blood Empress.

The rumbling cannon fire was like a storm, forming a dazzling ribbon of light between the heavens and earth.

The Blood Empress was enveloped by the apocalyptic firepower.

However, she merely sighed.

"Is this era so boring? The things that pose a slight threat to me are either the relics of the ancient gods or antiques from the previous era. Can't you guys… be more creative?"

The next moment.

The Empress waved her sword.

A blood-colored light appeared on the Heavenly God warship that was a thousand miles away, splitting its body.

Thereafter, the blood light shone brighter and let out a tragic buzz. After a moment of convergence, the high-energy sword beam exploded! The entire warship was destroyed in flames!

Without the pilots and the commanding warship, the remaining warships were like a group of headless flies, scurrying around before collapsing on their own.

Just like that…

The Heavenly God Fleet of the dwarves was annihilated along with their army.

The Heavenly God Fleet of the dwarf kings was destroyed instantly.

In exchange for this tragic destruction, the Blood Empress merely sighed in displeasure.

Boring…

On the other side.

A few minutes after Hela sent the message, the two strongest demigods finally replied.

[Histia: The signal is bad.]

[Edaline: I'll be there soon]

The next moment.

Space was shattered by some terrifying power!

A demigod woman who was completely covered in platinum armor walked out of the shattered space and arrived beside Hela.

Edaline Haines.

Although she was also an ultimate demigod with an Order bloodline of more than 90%, the princess, Edaline, looked petite and slender compared to Histia.

At the same time, because the purity of her bloodline was slightly inferior to Histia, some features on her face still resembled her biological mother.

Disregarding appearances…

Edaline's aura was completely different from Histia as well.

She was different from the stern and gentle daughter of the goddess who was born with innate leadership.

Edaline's aura was more ferocious.

It was the same as what she knew about herself.

She was merely a killing machine that existed to carry out the edict of the goddess.

Not only was she wearing full armor, there were also layers of powerful spells protecting her. They circulated around her 24/7 so that she could enter battle at any moment.

She had been through countless battles and her killing intent was torrential.

Edaline looked at the battlefield in the distance. "The projection of an evil god is indeed not an enemy that can be dealt with using ordinary methods."

Hela asked with concern, "Where's Histia? After all, our opponent is an evil god. I think it's safer for the two of you to attack together."

Edaline said indifferently, "Histia can't come for the time being. That fella is in the outer world right now."

Hela said, "The outer world? Aren't the seniors in charge of the battlefield there?"

"That's right, but those aunties have been in some trouble recently."

Edaline replied casually, "Don't worry about me. I'm not inexperienced in dealing with gods. Don't worry, leave it to me."

Hela asked, "You don't need help?"

Edaline said, "No, I can focus better if I'm alone. By the way..."

Edaline glanced into the distance.

She caught sight of the prince of the Empire, His Highness Rayne Haines, burying a demigod in the ground and conducting a ritual she could not understand.

Instantly, Edaline's voice was filled with surprise.

Edaline said, "What's that trash doing here instead of having a party with the wives of others in the capital?"

Hela: "Ah, you mean His Highness Rayne? I accompanied His Highness here."

After a moment of silence, Edaline said in displeasure, "Hela… haven't I told you before? It's pitiful enough that this guy is disabled by nature. Don't joke with him like this."

"I-It's not a joke!"

Hela looked uneasy. "Edaline, His Highness came to Gold Village for a serious matter. Actually, he has changed a lot recently… he has become… very powerful…"

Towards the end, Hela blushed and squirmed involuntarily.

Her knees bent inward as her body started going limp.

"…"

Edaline stared at Hela with a complicated expression for a few seconds.

She had a feeling that there was a story behind it.

Forget it…

Time to ignore that idiot for now.
