Ch.157 Happenings of the World (1)

    Eridel’s all-seeing gaze rolled over the multiple eye-catching events occurring all over the World.

    The Blood Fiends were about to invade the East Continent where they would eventually stumble upon either the Burning Nines or the Yoloria Empire, the Empire established by Empress Gloria, the High Human Queen- now Empress, who had 9 mixed Kings/Queens under her direct command.

    Moving along, it appeared that interesting things were taking place in the sea. Powerful figures were emerging like it was nothing and the average power of the sea dwellers were only continuing to rise. Alas, this was at the cost of lives upon lives upon lives. At this point, it wasn’t rare to suddenly see a large section of the sea become red with blood as a result of a terrible carnage. However, it wasn’t like they were ALL senselessly killing. Having gained more and more intelligence along with their increasing accomplishments in cultivation, they had learnt how to maximise their gains. Powerful Sea Beasts and Monsters had learnt how to take control of those weaker than them and have them diligently work for them. These creatures became the Kings and Emperors of the Sea. The only reason it took them so much longer than the creatures above the Sea was because of the fact that they were so used to killing and killing and killing that it had become instinctive. There was no pity and there was no mercy, in fact, there wasn’t even anything interesting to do in the Sea other than killing. For them to gain control of their instincts and use their indomitable auras to force others into doing the same, was much more impressive than the Beast and Monster Lords above the Seas. And going by the current course of events, it looked like multiple Emperors were about to enter an all-out war which would give birth to the first Kaiser of the Sea, something much more powerful than a Continental Kaiser.

    Over in the South Continent, the Demon god of Envy, Honourable Brother, was planning something so heinous that Eridel couldn’t help but ‘frown’ with his non-existent face. But thinking about the crazy thing that he had implemented into his World before he knew of its quite possibly life-ending costs, he felt like those very costs weren’t so ugly anymore. Because with that, he knew that even if the Honourable Brothers plans actually began to come into fruition, he would be able to put it all to an end without having to directly kill him. Still, he would rather that the world, yes world, deal with it themselves.

    Other than that, because of the demon gods hyper focus on his plans and lack of care for what the rest of the continent were doing. The Devils and Fae of the Forest of Bloody Origin had begun to not only recuperate peacefully, but also claim the entire territory of the now fleeing Blood Fiends. This was another thing that made him ‘frown’, after all, the Devils were really and truly quite evil. If it wasn’t because of the Paragon Devil, who, thanks to the 7th aspect of his inherited Divine Demon Physique [Free from Fate] was free from his innately evil desires, and the 5th aspect of the Divine Demon Physique [Divine Ruler], which made any and all people who considered him their leader adopt his own way of thinking and morals, Eridel really might have had to give the same treatment that he was reserving for the Honourable Brother and other future demon gods.
