Greed: All For What?



-The Demon's Dilemma.

The demons of the high heaven realm were having a party in the Tyrant Realm. They had everything they needed to have a party. They had a joyful matter to celebrate, food and drinks to celebrate with, and a large, prime peace of meat to bed all day long.

What could stop them from celebrating? Nothing apparently. They have been partying for years now. It has been about 50 years since they began partying. One can imagine just how big this party is. But whatever one imagines will fall short because this is a grand party that the demons have no intention of stopping for the next thousand years.

The demons of Tyrant Realm, on the other hand, are not so cheerful. At least not the demon gods. For the demon kings and the rest, the era of conquest wasn't going to turn out well for them, regardless of the outcome. They would lose out completely. The demon gods, however, will have a chance to become world enders.

Only one of them will gain this chance, and that demon god will be the one with the highest contribution towards the loss of the realm. So what the demon gods should do is clear. They ought to sabotage the Tyrant Realm, and there is a good opportunity to do so. They can join the party going on in the realm and make a lot of contributions to the destruction of the realm.

They will enjoy themselves at the party while working towards becoming world enders. It is killing two birds with one stone. It is a hobby that pays. So the demon gods of the Tyrant Realm were partying too. But then a certain god began stealing the abyss.

It is not something anyone could have imagined or expected to happen. There are just too many absurdities in the matter. First of all, a god dared to enter the abyss. Secondly, the god began to steal an abyssal plane. Thirdly, the god has stolen 31 abyssal planes.

The fourth and most absurd and infuriating part of this entire thing is that this god is still in the abyss, stealing the abyssal planes. If they don't know any better, they would think the god actually plans to steal the whole abyss.

Unfortunately, they have to assume the worst because this god has shown no signs of stopping the theft. It is as infuriating as it is impressive.

If this matter didn't concern them, the demon gods would be impressed. However, it does concern them. It is practically linked to their livelihood.

This matter is of great importance to them because if there is no abyss by the time the Tyrant Realm loses the era of conquest, then it will not be destroyed. If the abyss is not destroyed, then its energy will not surge into the demon god with the highest contribution. If that doesn't happen, then no demon god will become a world ender.

So the theft of the abyss means the loss of their chance to become world enders. This understanding came late to them. It is not their fault, actually. After all, this has never happened before. Even the powerful Tyrants failed to take over a single abyssal plane.

Actually, they didn't consider it at all until 10 abyssal planes had gone. It was then that a demon god asked, "Wait a minute. If there is no abyss, can we still become world enders?"

That was the thought provoking question that made them argue and come to the realization that not only is the god stealing the abyss, it is also stealing their future. As if that isn't enough reason to go and stop the god, there is also the fact that killing and absorbing the god means becoming a world ender.

So this god alone represents two different opportunities to become world enders. It is too much motivation for them to stop the god. It made the demon gods rally their numbers again to stop the god. Unfortunately, there was a slight problem.

A demon god asked about the giant black elephant in the realm. "What about that demon god of Chaos protecting the god?"

It is not as if they haven't tried to kill the god before. They have certainly tried, and many times at that. But they have failed every time, all because of the powerful demon god protecting the god.

This was far before they knew the importance of the abyss. But now that the abyss has become more important and it has become necessary to get rid of the god. Unfortunately, the problem that stopped them before, when they didn't care about the theft of some abyssal planes and only wanted to eat a god, hasn't disappeared.

In fact, that problem has only gotten bigger, just like the importance of stopping the god. This demon god is so powerful that they are calling him a demon eater, the fiend god, or the giant demon reaper.

That's how big Aeternus has gotten from all the eating. Even demon gods, who can cover a whole plane with their bodies, think he is a giant. He normally assumes the size of 100 kilometers to appear harmless. But they know better. They have seen his hand stretch for thousands of kilometers to grab a fleeing demon god.

The demon gods clamoured among each other.

"We can't even fight the god at all, much less stop him, and it is all because of the demon god."

"If we don't beat him, then we can forget stopping or having the god of life."

"But what can we do? We are not even a match for the demon gods from the High Heaven Realm, much less this enigma."

None of them could answer that question, so they were silent.

This is not the first time they have had this meeting. In the past, there have been a lot of suggestions, particularly from LIES and GREED, on how to defeat the fiend demon god. They have tried a lot of those suggestions, and they have all ended in failure.
