Chapter 899 - Vol V Chapter 259



In this world, where gods truly existed, “faith” was extremely important to the humans. Dying for their faith was not uncommon. Rather, it was actually a common sight.

Furthermore, death was not the end. For those who died for their faith, they would be received by the gods into their respective God Kingdom after death. They would then be able to enjoy a long period of luxury. For those who escaped at key moments and betrayed their faith, they would only be able to enter the underworld after they died and would constantly face much danger.

Death was definitely painful, but if “death” was not one’s final destination but rather the marker of a new stage of life, it became less scary. For the disciples, especially the serious and resolute, dying for their gods and dying for their faith was completely acceptable.

The interesting thing was that amongst those who had died for their faith, there was a significant number of evil people. It was not that they did not fear death but more that they believed that if they still could not receive redemption from their gods after death, it was a sign that they belonged to the underworld and required punishment for their sins.

As compared to death, entering the underworld was a much scarier prospect.

Under Sui Xiong, there were many devoted disciples as well. One day, if he were to face powerful enemies and engage in intense battle, these disciples would step up bravely and risk their lives gladly even if it were just a minuscule effort towards helping Sui Xiong gain victory.

As per Sui Xiong’s suggestion, it was thus impossible that the disciples would not participate if a god of wars occurred.

Sui Xiong knew himself that he was just being too soft-hearted towards the people, and he sighed and shook his head.

“It seems as though I can’t be of much help anymore.”

“No, that’s not true. Void Mask, you could at least stop the slaughter that would take place in the war.”

Sui Xiong’s eyes lit up, and he nodded furiously.

He had never really cared about which race won this battle in the first place. He was only concerned about the fact that many innocent people would die for no reason. If he could prevent all the slaughter, he would at least be able to face himself.

Following that, Sui Xiong had another round of intensive discussions with the gods and came up with plans and guidelines for the issue of preventing slaughter. This was especially so on the topic of how to do so, and they eventually reached a somewhat unanimous agreement on the issue.

According to the agreement, if slaughter happened or was about to happen in war, any of the gods could step up to stop it. As for the situation where a third party tried to prevent the gods from stopping slaughter, everyone would view this third party as a common enemy. If this third party refused to comply with the gods’ will even with warnings, Sui Xiong would directly find this third party and deal with them personally.

If there was the need, the gods could directly enter the war as well, even if it would affect the result of the war.

After the discussion, the gods went their own ways, and Sui Xiong thought about the discussion on his own. He smiled as he thought about the final agreement among the gods.

He raised his head and saw that Javier was still sitting in the meeting room. He was entertaining himself, clearly waiting for something.

“Do you have something to say to me?” Sui Xiong could guess who Javier was waiting for, and he spoke up curiously. “Or perhaps... “he” wants to talk to me?”

Javier nodded. “As expected, I don’t need to beat around the bush with clever people like you. So... are you interested in talking to “him”?”

Sui Xiong thought for a long time before shaking his head.

“Before this war ends, I do not wish to communicate with either side.”

Javier smiled and poured Sui Xiong a glass of wine. “I guessed that you might say that; “he” did too.”

Sui Xiong received the wineglass from Javier but did not immediately take a sip. Instead, he swirled the wine slowly while shaking his head and speaking with a pained tone.

“Why must this battle occur at all costs? With the current level of conflict between the humans and Orcs, surely it is not serious enough to warrant an all-out battle?”

“There are reasons for this, of course,” Javier mulled it over for a while before speaking. “It’s just that... these reasons have to be kept secret for now.”

“I hate this sort of secret the most!” Sui Xiong gulped down all the wine at one shot in anger. “These fellows are always acting suspiciously and trying to cover up their shady actions, acting in a condescending way of, “I’m doing something important, but I can’t tell you what it is”! In the end, when things are revealed, it always turns out that things are never as intense as they claim.”

“I can assure you that that is not the case this time,” Javier replied solemnly. “Although I cannot elaborate further, I can promise that this matter is of utmost importance.”

Sui Xiong glanced at Javier for a long time and furrowed his brow but eventually nodded in acknowledgment.

“Since you are my friend, I trust you on this.”

Javier smiled. “Don’t worry, I won’t betray your trust!”

With that, his clone slowly faded till it disappeared completely.

Meanwhile, in the God Kingdom of the human gods, his actual body sighed and shook his head.

“I’m not surprised that he is unwilling to meet me,” the God of Light said peacefully. “If it were me, I would also not want to meet a dangerous figure who instigated this war.”

“Actually, for some things, being able to meet and discuss it could be better,” Javier said. “I think Auscar is someone who can keep a secret.”

“I agree that he could keep a secret. However, the idea of a secret is that it is not revealed easily.” The God of Light shook his head. “If even I am unable to keep a secret well, how can I expect others to do the same?”

Javier was silent.

This matter was indeed serious as the God of Light had wanted to use this war to allow the human race to become the master race of the Main Plane, allowing him to enter the realm of Divine Powers. This was a huge risk to take. If he did not keep this secret properly, once it slipped out, there would be 800 to 1000 gods who would step up to oppose this endeavor.

If that happened, it would not just be the Orc God System but all other gods in this world of other races.

One pair of fists cannot defeat 4 four opponents in one shot. No matter how powerful the God of Light was, if he faced the opposition of 1000 gods and the attacks of many races, he would not be able to win.

It was thus imperative that this secret was kept well. It had to remain a secret and could not be leaked until the God of Light had taken tangible steps in his plan, or at least made some move towards his goal.

Javier had come across this secret due to a coincidence, and the God of Light had thus held on to his body. Unless the plan was successful, Javier could not leave.

If the plan succeeded and the God of Light became a Divine Power, the secret would then not matter anymore, and Javier would be free to go.

If the plan failed, the God of Light would definitely have to die, and the human race would be doomed. In that case, the secret would no longer matter as well.

In both cases, the outcome was generally the same regarding the secret.

Watching the God of Light turn to leave, Javier fell silent again.

Personally, as part of the humans, Javier of course wished for the human race to become stronger. Although he had left and had his own system, this did not mean that he wished for the humans to get hurt.

However, thinking logically, he was worried.

The God of Light was an extremely emotionless and stubborn figure. If he became a Divine Power, it would not necessarily be a good thing for this world.
