Lilith didn't ask any questions when Roy was talking. She just listened quietly.
After Roy finished speaking, she was silent for a long time before suddenly asking, "Didn't you just say that Void power not only corrupts titan souls but also the so-called gods? Is that so?"
"Yes!" Roy was stunned for a moment before nodding.
"Then it seems that Your Majesty Samael's worry is right!" Lilith propped herself up. "It's not just him. Even Heaven has noticed it …"
"Huh? What do you mean? "Lilith's words were incoherent, and Roy did not understand for a moment.
Lilith got off the bed and walked back and forth around her bedroom. "The main world of this world is Earth, but I can say with certainty that this planet has not given birth to the Titan Star Soul. But as you can see, degeneration … or rather, the power of the Void has also eroded this world. In many alternate spaces, there have been scenes of the Black Stone being devoured. Since the power of the Void can't corrupt the Titan Star Soul here, it might corrupt those gods …"
A thought occurred to Roy. "You mean, the Charred Council?"
"Yes, the Charred Council!" Lilith nodded approvingly. "You're indeed very smart. I'm talking about the Charred Council!"
"You should have been summoned here from the Abyss during the End War, so you might not know the origin of the Charred Council!" Lilith continued. "In fact, after discovering this world, angels and demons have been fighting each other for it because this world is very suitable to develop into a new Heaven territory or Abyss territory. At that time, the Charred Council hadn't appeared yet. This endless war lasted for a long time, about millions of years. In this war, countless angels and demons died in this world.
"Gradually, a group of angels and demons began to get tired of this life of war because many of them had never been able to return to Heaven or the Abyss and had been staying in this world to fight non-stop. This kind of life was driving even angels and demons crazy! Therefore, they joined forces in private and established the Charred Council. They claimed that the Charred Council had obtained the oracle of the Creator and used it to formulate laws, hoping to end the endless war between angels and demons … At that time, the Charred Council only elected two councilors, and angels and demons each occupied one seat. Moreover, the councilors were two very powerful angels and demons. They even had power not inferior to demon kings. "
"You also know that it's very difficult to reach a consensus on many issues if there are multiple seats in a council. Therefore, when the Charred Council was first established, not only did it not have any deterrent effect on angels and demons, but it also often fell into confusion … Therefore, at that time, no one in Heaven and Hell paid attention to the orders of the Charred Council and completely treated it as fools and clowns."
"However, the turning point appeared when humans were born in the main world!" Lilith fell into her memories and pondered. "I don't know if the Charred Council really obtained the oracle of the Creator, but ever since they accepted the most intelligent and powerful human as a member of the council and made the council seats three, the power of the Charred Council rapidly began to grow! The combat strength of their army soared, and they began to fight evenly with angels and demons, making the angels and demons have no choice but to face this force seriously. At the same time, they also tried their best to protect humans, who were still in a fragile position, and declared that humans were also an important part of the balance of the world.
"Out of curiosity, I also began to study humans!" Lilith said. "I have to say that humans are indeed a very magical species. It was precisely because of this research that I discovered that humans could actually fuse the bloodlines of angels and demons at the same time, and the nephilim were born at that time …
"But then something unexpected happened. I found that the nephilim I created was actually a failure. They were tyrannical, bloodthirsty, and cruel. Perhaps this was because the angel and demon bloodlines in their bloodlines could not reach a balance, and they were more inclined toward demons! The nephilim population was not large, and they only reproduced for two generations before they were recruited by the Charred Council! This is the origin of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. You've probably heard of it. "
Roy and Julia nodded but didn't say anything to interrupt Lilith.
"After obtaining the loyalty of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, the Charred Council became even more unstoppable. At this time, the Charred Council had already begun to claim to be the spokesperson and manager of the Creator in this world, wielding god-like power. They began to forcefully interfere with the war between angels and demons and forced us to stop fighting. All those who opposed them were buried under the iron hooves of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
"The truce agreement was finally reached. Although both the angels and demons were unwilling, considering that the war had indeed lasted too long, they finally reached a truce agreement!" Lilith said, "This is the origin of the seven seals that have been circulated among the various ancient races."
Roy nodded. He finally understood the entire history of the Charred Council.
Lilith concluded. "This truce lasted for thousands of years, giving humans a chance to recuperate and develop into what it is today. Similarly, as time passes, the status of the Charred Council will become higher and higher. It's possible to say that they are the gods of this world!"
Seeing that Lilith's speech had come to an end, Roy finally found an opportunity to interject and ask, "So you think that while Void power is eroding this world, it's also hatching these so-called gods of the Charred Council?"
Lilith nodded. "Yes, no one knows more about hatching than demons. It's nothing more than continuously magnifying the darkness in the hearts of intelligent beings and pushing them to a dangerous extreme. In fact, many demons can do this. The difference is that demons might not be as powerful as the Void Lords and Void Lords you mentioned, and they can't bestow this power to the corrupted. The Charred Council has always been in a high and mighty position for thousands of years. They give and take to all races, and no one can resist their will. Perhaps it's precisely because of this inflated mentality that in recent years, we've found that the Charred Council's methods have become more and more extreme. Although they say that they're maintaining balance, most of the time, it's more like they're maintaining their ruling position … Therefore, we have reason to suspect that they've also been corrupted …"
"With all due respect, Your Excellency Lilith, why are you telling us this?" Roy asked thoughtfully.
"I heard from Death that you and Fury made a deal in exchange for the secrets of the nephilim. Is that so?" Lilith looked straight at Roy.
Sure enough, Roy's previous guess came true. Fury had indeed told Death about him and the contents of the deal. And after Death came to the Black Stone and met Lilith, perhaps he was investigating the true situation of the power of 'Corruption', so he told Lilith everything …
Of course, it was also possible that Lilith had gotten it out of Death. But no matter what, neither Fury nor Death of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse had the obligation to keep secrets for an Abyss demon like him. Even because this matter involved the secret of the birth of the nephilim, they were worried that he, a demon, would have some crooked ideas. Telling this matter to Lilith, the creator of the nephilim, might even arouse her anger …
Although it might not be good to say this, Roy felt that they were naturally happy to see demons and demons bite each other …
Roy figured out the hidden intentions of the Horsemen of the Apocalypse after thinking about it for a while. But judging from Lilith's tone and attitude, she did not seem to care much about his pursuit of the secrets of the nephilim … Well, it was also possible that Lilith had also sensed Death's true intentions, so she did not fall for it at all. This was definitely a good thing for Roy!
Therefore, Roy did not say anything, but his expression was equivalent to tacitly agreeing.
Lilith said, "Little guy, you don't have to be so nervous. Although I'm the creator of the nephilim, to me, the nephilim are nothing more than the failed product of an experiment. It's not worth me making a fuss about it. You want to know the secrets of the nephilim because you're seeking a ladder to promote to demon lord. I can tell you how to create the nephilim, but correspondingly, what do you plan to repay me with?"
Hearing this, Roy's mind raced.
Power? Power? Money? Souls? Lilith probably did not lack these things. She was a demon king, and Roy was only a high-rank demon. No matter how he looked at it, these things did not seem like something that Roy could give.
Therefore, Roy probed, "Your Excellency Lilith, perhaps the only thing I can give is my allegiance …"
In fact, Roy had a secret thought in his heart. He felt that there was still one more thing he could give, and that was his body. He believed that a succubus like Lilith was the same as those succubi in the Abyss, feeling very hungry/thirsty. Perhaps he could … sleep with her?
It had to be said that Lilith's charm was too powerful. Even though she was restraining herself now, Roy could not help but have this thought.
But then he suddenly thought that Lilith was Samael's partner in this world. If Roy really slept with her, wouldn't he be giving Samael a greasy hat? F * ck, this is courting death. If Samael finds out, will he tear me apart?!
At this thought, Roy quickly restrained this unrealistic thought …
Fortunately, he kept his head down, and Lilith did not see his eyes and expression. Facing Roy's tentative question, Lilith unexpectedly shook her head. "I don't need your allegiance, but you might be able to help me do something!"
"What is it?" Roy asked.
"When the Charred Council secretly recruited the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, not only did they kill all their compatriots, but they also stole something from me!" Lilith's expression flickered. Lilith's expression flickered. "It's a Red Sea Egg, a key item for creating the nephilim. After losing this Red Sea Egg, even I can't continue creating the nephilim. Apart from the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, there is no third generation of the nephilim. What I want you to do is to find a way to snatch the Red Sea Egg from the Charred Council and bring it back to me. Then, I will fulfill the agreement and tell you how to fuse the bloodlines and souls of angels and demons!"
"The Red Sea Egg isn't in the Charred Council, right?" Roy asked in astonishment. "You want me to go to the Charred Council Space?"
"That's what you have to think about!" Lilith waved her hand at Roy. "I'm only giving you a chance on account of the Void power you brought, but I have countless high-rank demons under me. If you can't grasp this opportunity, then it's your problem. Now, you can leave!"
Seeing Lilith wave her hand to chase them away, Roy and Julia did not dare to say anything else and could only leave Lilith's palace.
After they left, Lilith's face revealed a thought-provoking smile …
