Why did he suddenly come to the underworld?
At this moment, Søren was also a little confused because he still remembered what happened at the last moment. At that time, he had already suppressed the power of the Dread Lord. After all, a dead god couldn't cause too much trouble. At the last moment, the Dread Lord was doomed to fail, so he directly attacked Søren, trying to use Søren's connection with absorbing the divinity of Fear to occupy his mind.
How could he possibly succeed in this!?
Søren's will was as strong as steel. He directly transformed into his divine form and smashed the spirit of the Dread Lord.
As an ancient Great Divine Power, the essence of the Dread Lord's soul was preserved on the Throne of Fear inside the Divine Kingdom of Fear after his death. In other words, as long as the Throne of Fear was not destroyed, his spirit and soul could be constantly repaired. Even if the divine will was suppressed and killed by Søren, it would only make him weak, but it couldn't really kill the Dread Lord.
To put it simply, the Dread Lord was now like a Lich, and now the [Throne of Fear] was his phylactery.
"Something's wrong."
After Søren defeated the spiritual entity of the Dread Lord's first attack, he set the teleportation beacon at Mordor City before the space shattered and was ready to directly return to his physical body.
Under normal circumstances, it was almost impossible for a god to have an accident when using the divinity of [Plane Teleportation] to teleport.
Therefore, Søren's appearance in the underworld was most likely due to a 'man-made' reason.
And the person who could interfere with his teleportation and set it in the underworld must have a much higher divinity than Søren. There were not many such existences in the whole multiverse.
As for the one who had something to do with the underworld, it seemed that there was only one!
— — "The ancient god of death, Jergal!"
As soon as Søren thought of this, he heard a calm and indifferent voice saying slowly, "The new Shadow God, the one outside of fate, welcome to the underworld."
"I was just wondering when you would think of me!"
The god of death, Jergal.
Even though Søren had yet to see him, his voice was enough to prove his identity. Jergal's last words also proved his identity. This was because some abnormally powerful gods had the ability to sense. For their divine names, not to mention speaking them out loud, just hearing them in one's mind would produce a divine sense. As soon as Søren thought of Jergal, the God of Death, he was able to sense the presence of a divine being. This kind of divine power was beyond Søren's understanding of divine beings.
The fog in front of him gradually dispersed.
A pair of Death's Servants in tattered gray cloaks appeared in front of Søren. In front of them was a Boat of the River Styx, with Necromancers holding books and pens on both sides. They were all natives of the Underworld.
The Grim Reaper rarely received souls personally.
To the deities who held the divine title of [Death], their duty was to maintain the order of death in the Multiverse and the movement of souls. On the other hand, the Death that mortals would sometimes unwittingly see was actually an attendant chosen from their believers. Just like the 'otherworldly Oracles' that Søren prepared to help him manage the Kingdom of God, the Death's Servants were a different kind of Oracles. These existences similar to petitioners would not be trapped in the underworld. They were endowed with a little Divinity of Death and could travel between many planes.
"Lord of Shadows. Please come with me. "
A hoarse voice was heard. The Necromancer with a withered face made an inviting gesture to Søren and slowly said, "My Lord, Jergal, wants to see you."
No one knew how long this Necromancer had existed. His soul was full of the smell of decay.
The ancient Grim Reaper, Jergal, liked to record death. Many of his followers started recording all kinds of deaths in the Thorium Era. The Necromancer in front of him was probably above level 35. Although his name was not spread in the multiverse, Søren could sense that this Necromancer was not much weaker than some famous Liches left behind from the Nesser Era.
This was the foundation of time.
As the oldest Grim Reaper in the multiverse, Jergal probably had many servants like this under his command.
"Yes."
Søren was not afraid at all. Instead, he was a little curious and directly followed the Necromancer to the Boat of the Styx.
Jergal was not a god that needed to be afraid.
This was because to a certain extent, he was a god that disliked the affairs of the other gods. Even when the God of Murder went crazy, Jergal only had a slight trace of mockery. He did not have the slightest intention of interfering. Even before the rise of the three Death Gods, Jergal was already tired of his priesthood. He gave away almost all of his core priesthoods, only keeping a part related to the death records. In the following years, most of Jergal's tasks were to help the [King of the Dead] familiarize himself with his priesthood.
After giving up his priesthood, Jergal had been living like this.
In a way that was close to being a hermit, he first assisted the King of Bones, Mirko, then the King of the Dead, Klemvaux. Other than helping them maintain the law of death, Jergal did not interfere with the affairs of the other gods.
Currently, Jergal was a [Minor Divine Power].
There was almost no religion in the mortal world. Only the oldest writings recorded a little bit of it. In the Eastern Kingdom, there was a small inscription that recorded such a short passage.
"The ancient Grim Reaper, Jergal, was tired of fulfilling his duties. When he was almost forgotten by the world, he gave most of his priesthoods to the God of Tyranny, Bane, the God of Murder, Baal, and the King of Bones, Mirko."
"After the death of these gods, he continued to serve the God of Murder, Cyric, and the King of the Dead, Klemvaux. He was only loyal to the position of [King of the Dead], so if the incumbent could not fulfill his duties properly, he would secretly overthrow him. Jergal barely maintained his cooperation with the former Grim Reaper, Klemvaux, and was quite harmonious with the current Grim Reaper, and still had a contemptuous attitude towards Cyric. "
In the Eastern Kingdom, there was an abandoned ruin, and there was such a short passage recorded in it.
…
Why did the Grim Reaper, Jergal, want to see him?
The first thing that came to Søren's mind was' someone outside of fate '. Gloria also said that he was outside of the river of fate. According to the divination of the Northern Witches, people outside of fate were full of infinite variables. The most representative of them were Cyric and Klemvaux, who had inherited the priesthood of death respectively.
Although Jergal was powerful, Søren was not afraid.
The source of his power came from Jergal, the Grim Reaper, and this existence almost no longer interfered with the affairs of mortals and gods.
