In rare cases like Earth, even if they managed to win the planetary war, it needed countless sacrifices.
"Haaah…."
There was no protection for weaker worlds.
Soone strong could co, and end everything.
"What a shitty system."
Neo clicked his tongue. He finally looked around.
"Are we moving now?" Yaleth asked.
"Yeah, it's ti I end this Holy War once and for all."
"All of the Outer Gods that have co are peak Stage-3, and since they are Outer Gods, they are stronger than normal peak Stage-3 Gods by a large margin.
"Are you sure you want to fight them?"
Instead of answering Yaleth, Neo used Pseudo-Gap to exit the Sky Barrier.
He appeared outside Earth.
The entire solar system was filled with Eldritch entities, ships larger than planets made from living flesh, hordes of monsters that would cause soone ntal pain just from looking at them.
Below Neo was Earth.
It was many tis larger than pre-apocalypse Earth.
From here, Blood Sea seed to have replaced oceans and seas of Earth. The distance between continents looked normal.
But only those who lived on worlds ravaged by Blood Sea would know that Blood Sea twisted space around it, and it connected all worlds connected by Blood Sea.
Suddenly, countless powerful auras exploded.
The Void Entities screeched and roared, seeing that soone had co out of the planet Earth.
They dashed towards Neo.
In response, Neo simply snapped his fingers.
Red lightning exploded out from him. All Void Entities between Venus and Mars were killed.
The rest of the Void Entities who were running towards Neo stopped, frozen in shock.
He hadn't taken even an instant to kill countless Void Entities.
Even though that wasn't even 1% of their army, it was still a surprise that soone so strong ca out from a weak planet like Earth.
Neo stabbed his sword into the Sky Barrier and sat down.
His cold eyes stared at the Void Entities.
"Tell your Gods to co here, and et . Or else, I will be coming to their planets to give them a visit."
Neo had already sensed that no Outer God was present within the solar system.
They seed to have left after stationing their army inside the solar system.

POV Outer God Velgrath, the Weaver of Void-Silk
In the endless Looming Spire, Velgrath delicately pulled threads of nothingness from the swirling Void.
Each strand he weaved ford a seed of a galaxy, creating a spiral of stars entwined with invisible laws and unknowable anings.
His many arms moved with slow, patient rhythm. His face was a blank shell without a mouth, and without eyes.
Suddenly, a rip in space shimred behind him.
He did not turn.
A voice erged like chiming crystal over obsidian water.
"…My Lord Velgrath."
The angel, draped in robes that flickered between reality and imaginary, knelt.
"Forgive the interruption. But… soone has erged from Earth."
Velgrath's weaving halted. The silence that followed scread across the Looming Spire.
The angel continued, "He says he wishes to et the Outer Gods. Or he will destroy our planet."
Velgrath slowly turned, and for the first ti in ten million years, one of his eye-sockets cracked open.

POV Outer God Myzrul, the Shepherd of Stars
Myzrul floated above a newborn sun.
His massive antlered form radiated songs of light across star nurseries.
Each of his six wings carried constellations across the sky like a celestial shepherd herding fire.
He humd a lullaby in unknown frequencies, soothing the storms of collapsing gas giants.
Suddenly, one of his halos dimd.
A presence ford behind him, and a woman made of stardust and bones, knelt upon a cot fragnt.
"My Lord Myzrul… I bring urgent tidings."
The stars near her flickered in response to the words.
"Soone from Earth has crossed the Sky Barrier. He says he wants to et the Outer Gods. Or… he will destroy our planet."
The stars stopped singing.
Myzrul tilted his horned head upward, and the sun behind him pulsed red for the first ti in its brief existence.
…
POV Outer God Vaedrex, the Maw of Silence
Deep beneath a world of eternal oceans, Vaedrex slept.
Its body was a hollow chasm the size of a continent, ringed with spiraling teeth and cloaked in abyssal tendrils. It did not dream. It had never needed to.
Until now.
The black sea trembled as a bubble of air ford within its endless pressure.
From it stepped an angel with pale fins and eyes like pearl.
"Vaedrex," she spoke. "A human demigod wielding a True Soul Weapon has co out of the Earth. He demands an audience with the Outer Gods."
The sea stilled.
"He has warned us that if we do not heed his call, he will wage a war against our planet."
The abyss twitched. The Maw of Silence slowly widened, revealing a second row of teeth behind the first.
…
POV Outer God Lurial, the Clockwork Bloom
In the center of a planet-sized lotus of bronze and crystal, Lurial sat upon a throne of turning gears.
Each petal of her chanical flower opened and closed in perfect synchronicity, generating waves of ti distortion that rippled across countless dinsions.
She plucked a petal from her own form and set it into the heart of a dying civilization, gifting them another century of survival.
Then, she paused.
One of her angels—a being half-clock, half-ghost—descended the spiral of ti and knelt beside her.
"My Lady Lurial," the angel said, gears ticking with urgency, "Soone from Earth has erged."
Lurial's chanical crown adjusted itself by two degrees.
"We cannot ascertain his strength, but he has sohow overco his gene limit, and he has given us a warning: He threatens to destroy our world unless the Outer Gods invading his planet et him once."
The bloom froze.
Waging a war on a God's planet was no different from stepping on a dog's tail.
Once a threat like that was spoken, the Gods would do anything in order to destroy the threat.
