The battle of the Hades caused all the factions to reshuffle. However, the true impact of this battle was something that mortals didn't know about for a very long time.
The great majority of mortals could only learn about the changes in the Holy Church, the various countries, and the various species' territories.
However, some things were impossible to hide. In fact, they had already been recorded in history. For example, the greatest known battle result was the death of the Lord of Putrefaction.
"This is the first confirmed death of a Main God in the past thousand years. This is a tremendous victory for the Order Faction, and proof of the Holy Light's glory upon us."
The Holy Church's propaganda was as shameless as ever. But at the very least, they learned their lesson from last time and didn't credit the God of Holy Light with the victory. Otherwise, the Hades Faction would have also publicized the grand occasion of the God of Holy Light's incarnation appearing alongside a Demon Main God on the battlefield.
The death of a Main God level Demon Main God was probably the greatest battle result of this Holy War. If one only looked at the results on paper, it could even be said to be the greatest victory in the past thousand years.
But, what mortals didn't know was that the number of Main Gods who participated in this battle of the Hades actually reached the double digits. The Lord of Putrefaction was only the most unlucky of them all. Or perhaps it should be said that he was the greediest.
Due to his greed, Ladvioka was probably the Main God who had invested the most into the invaders. Although he indeed posed a tremendous threat to the Hades Faction, he doubtlessly received the strongest counterattack. It was only natural that he died. After all, Roland had already predicted that a Main God would come, so he naturally had prepared a trump card that would be sufficient to deal with a Main God.
"… Although Ladvioka was killed off, it was nothing more than a shot to the head. He also used up a lot of my trump cards. The other Main Gods are far more sly. They only work for us but don't do anything. The ones who secretly work with us are all sly old bastards. It can be said that Ladvioka is the only one who's truly moved. If all of them fight to the death like Ladvioka did, it's doubtful who will win in the end. "
When I thought of this, I couldn't help but laugh. The nature of the Chaos Faction had long since determined that even though they were powerful, they would still put themselves first. Fighting together against a common enemy without any regard for personal gains and losses was completely inconsistent with their nature. This assumption was impossible from the very start.
If I had to make such an assumption, I might as well assume that the Chaos Faction wholeheartedly participated in the Holy War. Considering the tremendous difference in power levels between the Order Faction and the Chaos Faction, the Order Faction had long since lost any hope of survival.
"Wait, it might not be completely impossible …"
The very nature of the Chaos Abyss determined that it was impossible for the Demon Lords to form an allied army that trusted each other. However, this didn't mean that they couldn't become the most dangerous invaders under the pressure of a single will.
There was still order in the Chaos Abyss. It was the physical manifestation of the law of the jungle — the law of the jungle and the law of the jungle.
Although this was quite primitive and unreasonable, it was indeed effective. And when a Chaos Main God was being beaten to the point where he couldn't even breathe properly, it was impossible for a Chaos Main God to have much moral integrity. Those who needed to submit would submit, and those who needed to submit would submit.
Previously, with Cynthia's restrictions, the Chaos Main Gods' internal conflicts were limited in scale. Although this reduced internal conflicts, it also limited the possibility of a Chaos Main God being born. The laughable situation of only having a crown prince without an emperor was actually viewed by everyone as normal … This was quite obvious that there was an emperor emeritus who didn't want an emperor to inherit the throne.
But now, Emperor Emeritus Cynthia was no longer here …
It was easy to predict that the demons would definitely beat each other's guts and brains out. Then, when the demons were certain that they would all die together if they continued fighting, the final victor would be decided.
In order to track down the demons, one or more of the demons with the strongest muscles would take over. The eternally chaotic demon armies would finally have a true Chaos Main God leading them this time.
But even so, I didn't seem to be able to do anything apart from raising the danger level of the Chaos Abyss even higher.
Even the devils wouldn't want to go to the Chaos Abyss. Even the purest angels would naturally become corrupted if they stayed in the Chaos Abyss for too long. Apart from the idiotic demons who only thought about eating and killing, as well as the insane evil cultists and war maniacs, nobody would like the Chaos Abyss.
"It'd be great if I could insert a spy into the Chaos Abyss. Perhaps I could toss Renée, who has a demon bloodline, down there …"
Although I was scheming in my head, I wouldn't show it to my face. Of course, I was only saying it casually. After all, although the Chaos Abyss was a great place to train people, it was far too unlikely for them to return alive. As the Queen of the Mist Kingdom, she was quite important in the mortal plane. And if I really tossed her down there, I would have to worry that she would learn from a certain person.
Actually, Eliza would have been a good choice. But, apart from the fact that I was currently avoiding her, if she really went down there, the Main Gods of the Hades would happily tear her apart.
After the Battle of the Hades, although I had evil intentions in opening the door to Mountain Paradise, the Main Gods of the Chaos Abyss had still successfully returned. And after I personally intercepted Cavendish, the Flame Sea Marchioness' position in the Chaos Abyss had already been exposed.
An existence like her was connected to the Fire Sea Plane to begin with. It would be impossible for her to hide in the Chaos Abyss. Allowing her to go down there would truly be the equivalent of murder.
[Actually, I know someone who can not only survive there, but they can also live quite well there. If that's the case, not only will they be able to affect the situation in the Chaos Abyss, they might even be able to make the Main Gods of the Chaos Abyss suffer.]
"Who?"
I was rather astonished. Why didn't I know that I had such a capable subordinate? She was actually able to live freely in the Chaos Abyss.
[Roland Mist.]
"Heh heh, you're making me suffer again …"
However, I swallowed my sneer of disdain. But, when I thought about it, I realized that Roland was right. My current power level wasn't very high (using the Main Gods of the Chaos Abyss as a standard), and existences of my level were quite common in the Chaos Abyss. As long as I didn't attract the attention of the Main Gods, I would at least be able to protect myself.
[Also, the Chaos Abyss is the best place for you to "create your sword." Consider this for the sake of your future …]
Not only did my System's persuasion fail to convince me, it even made me suspicious. This was already the second time in the past few days that she had tried to tempt me to go to the Chaos Abyss. This really didn't seem like the usual Goddess of Chaos who would always be indifferent to everything else and coldly watch the show.
Previously, if she wanted to make me suffer, she would only do it once. It would be fine if I didn't fall for her trap, but this was the first time she had ever clung to me like this … She would always follow the principle of taking the bait willingly. Could this be the Creator Goddess's way of being reserved?
"The reason? I need the truest reason. "
[… If Cynthia truly died, then the dimensional barrier should have been largely shattered, but it's still intact. Also, I can sense Cynthia's soul waves in the lower planes …]
Alright, I didn't need to say anything else. It was indeed a foolish idea to have Cavendish drag Cynthia's soul away from the Chaos Abyss. Something must have happened afterwards. When considering the circumstances back then, I didn't stop Cavendish from using my trump card.
"Um, it's not that I want to interrupt your conversation, but haven't you forgotten something …"
The silly cat actually looked at me rather hesitantly, as if she was embarrassed to say something.
"You mean the ones who asked for help? The wood spirits' Aerial Knight has already gone. What can I do if they can't make it in time? I even met a Main God of the Chaos Abyss. This type of luck … I'll just do my best and leave it to fate. "
However, Harloys shook her head as she stared at my lower body … Fine then, I had long since lost all feeling in my lower body. However, Harloys, who was even more beautiful than a flower, was still tightening her vines around me.
Although it was rather strange for Harloys to seriously talk about national affairs while being tied up, she completely ignored my attempts to convince Amelia to let go. She was currently smiling far too brilliantly, so brilliantly that I didn't even dare to turn around to look at her.
A strange sensation spread from my back to my entire body. It felt like pain, but it also felt like something else. The vines had already reached into my skin, and the feeling of my nerve endings being controlled was rather strange.
"Wait a moment, I'm not joking around. I'm not happy at all being tied up. Men shouldn't be the ones being forced into their bodies. Can you not be like this?"
Harloys pressed her face against my ear, and her tongue licked my ear. Her youthful and sweet voice was filled with poisonous malice.
"If I say you are, then you are. Even if you aren't, you'll still become … a man in the future? Actually, that's not a problem. Princess Peach is quite cute as well. "
I felt the vines digging even deeper under my skin. Part of them reached into my brain, while the other part reached into my lower body. It seemed that the vines were intending to modify my body … I had never doubted Amelia's authority in the field of biological modification. I felt an unprecedented danger looming right before me. Perhaps it was only when people were forced into a corner that they would become quick-witted. I looked all around me as a "life-saving straw" appeared in my mind.
"Amelia, actually, I already have someone I like. Yep, I ran away from Eliza because I wanted to be together with her. Although I'm grateful for your love and assistance, I've always only been able to carry the weight of one person on my shoulders. That's why I'm sorry … "
I did my best to squeeze out a sincere smile as I glared at the third person present — the silly cat who was yawning and watching the fun.
"Hmph, you're still smiling? You'll be unlucky eventually. "
Ever since Amelia appeared, Harloys had actually been watching the fun and adding fuel to the fire. She was actually being heartless, so she was blaming me for being unjust.
"Yep, that's her. The person I like is Harloys. I previously eloped with her."
While I was grinding my teeth and trying to drag the silly cat down with me, the silly cat actually smiled and transformed into a loli, adult female, and Gold Elf with a perfect body. She suddenly wore a light gold wedding dress, and before I could react, she blushed and moved closer to me.
Her red face was right in front of me, and her red lips were about to be imprinted on me. In the end, Harloys tilted her head, and her red lips brushed past the corner of my mouth.
But before I could mourn the fact that I had saved my first kiss for several hundred years, only to be eaten by a cat, an even more astonishing piece of information appeared.
"Yep, he's right. We've already pledged ourselves to each other. Little Amelia, I'm sorry, but you're too late. He's already mine. Um, could you please let go of my man? This is a public place, after all. It'll be very unsightly if you try to grab me. "
For once, Harloys became serious. That ancient golden-haired Gold Elf Princess was incredibly dignified, but the words she said made me doubt my ears.
"What?"
Harloys' reply caused my jaw to drop in fright. However, Amelia seemed to have expected this, and her smile became even brighter.
Judging from the countless vines that suddenly spread out and instantly covered the entire castle walls, it was no exaggeration to say that the brighter one's smile, the more one would want to kill someone.
"As expected of a thieving cat. From the very start, you've always been the most dangerous."
