Chapter 739 Speak Of The Devil
"I know that some of you might consider our decision reckless, but I assure you that we considered everything. I, Ziru, and Koren discussed this for a long time and decided that any more waiting would only reduce our chances of winning and increase our war casualties."
Ziru and Koren were the names of the Infinite Space-Time Supernova Eye and the Eternal Death and Destruction Supernova Eye. Everybody could see the determination in their faces, and clearly, they were ready to march into war.
"Our Prima Universe finds itself in a unique position. The Eldritch Universe is no longer a threat. It is only a matter of time before we achieve complete dominance over the Prima-Eldritch Universe Final Battlefield." Ziru spoke solemnly and gave the word to the Eternal Death and Destruction Supernova Eye.
"Some might have accepted the Heavenly Race's presence in the past since they were a necessary evil, but that is no longer the case. Once they are gone, our universe will grow stronger, as their corrosive nature will vanish."
Koren's words made the powerhouses glance at the members of the Dark Tower Alliance and Immortal Alliance. Before, those two powers had turned a blind eye toward the Heavenly Race since they needed them to fight the Eldritch Race, but things had changed.
Nevertheless, Bahamut, Noir, Ivar, and Kato knew things were not so simple. A war was coming, one that involved the entire Prima Universe and whose outcome would influence all of those not only did they lack details since the information Venganza gave Issac was intentionally shallow, but they were also not allowed to divulge it.
"Might I ask a few questions, Lord Apex?" Kato stood up from his throne and gave a short bow toward Apex before speaking.
The Rank 9 Archangel knew that hard questions would happen with the presence of the Dark Tower Alliance and Immortal Alliance. Still, he wasn't worried.
"There was no need to call me Lord, and you can ask your questions."
"Very well. Apex, you should be aware that our Primarchs suffered significant wounds during the battle in the Styx River. While their condition is better than that of Lilet, Jormungandr, and Eligos, they are still recovering. They are unlikely to participate in a war in the enemy's homeworld and risk worsening their conditions." Kato's remarks aimed at a crucial point of the battle strategy.
Even if Lilet was wounded, she was still a Primarch, and inside the Heavenly Creator World, she would have the chance to tap into the world's origin to increase her strength. Without the help of the Dark Tower Alliance and Immortal Alliance, how could the Heavenly Slayer Alliance expect to handle the Heavenly Primarch?
"Even if it happened millions of years ago, I once called the Heavenly Creator World my home and knew it very well. It took me a long time, but I managed to find a way to hide from the World Consciousness and make it impossible for Lilet and the others to tap into the world's origin."
Apex's words surprised everyone, and it seemed he had prepared for a very long time.
"As for our lack of battle power in case the Primarchs decide not to help us, that is also not a problem. I am willing to pay the ultimate price during this war so that the Heavenly Race will never harm someone else again."
If before they were surprised, now Apex filled them with awe. The Archangel was ready to burn his soul and vitality to win this war. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
"A man willing to die for the cause he believes is genuinely worthy of respect and admiration. However, it is not just your life on the line here. The Heavenly Slayer Alliance has the power to take on the Heavenly Creator World, but there is a life form whose power equals a Principal World who might have a say on this war." Kato paused to ensure everybody felt the weight of his words before carrying on.
"I am talking about the Champion of Justice and Order. If he were to interfere, only the World Tree could stop him, and unfortunately, Lord En is in deep seclusion, treating his wounds. So if he were to see you attack his homeworld, who knows how he would react."
Apex, Ziru, and Koren could not help but frown as they heard Kato mentioning the Champion of Justice and Order. That man was indeed the biggest wild card in this entire war, and sadly they had no way to gather any information about him.
"What you say is true. The Champion of Justice and Order is indeed mighty. Still, he was also a Hero of Cataclysm, fighting side by side with all the races of the Prima Universe against the Eldritch Universe. There is no way someone like him would protect a xenophobic and evil race like the Heavenly Race. He will definitely side with us, the Fallen Race."
Apex's voice carried a great conviction, and there was also great pride as he spoke about the Champion of Justice and Order. How could he not feel proud of such a mighty and legendary warrior of his race?
"That was billions of years ago. Who knows what happened with the Champion of Justice and Order's mind during this time. I am sure I don't have to remind you of the evil aura he unleashed fighting the Eldritch Universe King." Kato's eyes narrowed as he felt hostility coming from Apex, and he immediately performed a slight bow.
"Please don't misconstrue my words and worries. The Champion of Justice and Order is a hero to all the Prima Universe. After all, without him, we might have fallen to the Eldritch Race during the Cataclysmic War. And I do support you in the sense that the Heavenly Race is cancer, but we can let the entire body die during the extirpation."
Apex frowned, but in the end, he no longer targeted Kato and let his aura calm down.
Kato nodded toward the Archangel before turning toward Ivar, causing some surprise in this one.
"I have heard that you and the Neo-Demon Ancestor had many interactions in the past. Is there a way to contact him and ask for more information about the Champion of Justice and Order?"
Ivar's eyes narrowed as he heard that and saw that he became the center of attention, with even Apex and the two Rank 9 Supernovas focusing on him.
"The Neo-Demon Realm is isolated right now, and the one calling the shots is Venganza. That man is not someone who we can just talk to. He even ignores our teachers." Ivar had just finished his sentence when his eyes widened as he saw a thread emerge from his body.
He knew the nature of those threads because they appeared during the Divine Extermination War, and there was only one man that could control them.
The Magus was not the only one who could see the thread, and things only grew more shocking as it began to swallow strange energy from the people present.
It took them a moment, but they detected the energy as negative emotions, particularly those originating from their desire to obtain revenge.
"Speak of the devil, and he shall appear," Ivar uttered that mortal proverb as the karmic thread transformed into a portal after having devoured enough negative emotions.
