The burning white dog looked pitifully at Mike, hoping he would say a few kind words on its behalf.
Of course, it knew the true identity of the child standing before it. If the child really wanted to eat it... could it even pull itself out intact? The white dog began to ponder this grim question. Mike cleared his throat, patted the child on the head, and gently persuaded,
"This isn't food."
"Oh..." The child wiped away so drool, clearly disappointed.
The white dog, relieved to have narrowly escaped death, collapsed to the ground, its legs giving out.
"Do a favor and get rid of this fire," Mike said simply.
The flas on Shadow Three's body ca from the Supre Abyssal Sun. In other words, they were part of the Supre Demon God's power. And really, who better to absorb such flas than the child?
Mike, when it ca to coaxing children, might just be the best among the Supre Beings. The child extended a finger and gave a small flick. The flas on the white dog's body rolled and gathered into a fireball, which hovered at the child's fingertip.
"Great. Now you've got a ball to play with when you're bored," Mike said.
Sure, this fireball could obliterate a powerful Nine-Star Lord with a single hit, but in the child's hands, it was just a toy.
After chatting with the child for a bit, Mike pulled out a pile of books, including so children's literacy materials.
The white dog: ...
Was Thor really raising the Supre Demon God as a child?
It was worth noting that this kid possessed terrifying power.
"Thanks for helping out earlier," Mike said.
Walking through the River of Ti ca at a cost, and the child had paid that price for him. Mike felt he should at least show so gratitude.
After so casual conversation, Mike said his goodbyes, promising to visit the child again in the future.
Once he left the dream space, Mike returned to the Second Abyss and glanced at the Second Demon God, who was still lying on the ground.
Ignoring him, Mike turned to Shadow Three and said seriously,
"Shadow Three, my third bro wants this guy to take a trip to the mortal realm, but he's refusing to go."
Shadow Three nodded, indicating he understood.
He stepped forward, pulled out his spiked club, and smashed it into the Second Demon God's face.
BAM-
BAM-
Just two hits, and the Second Demon God was left barely alive, unable to utter a coherent word.
Shadow Three scratched his head, then turned to Mike and asked,
"You said to send the Second Demon God, but you didn't specify which one, right?"
The Second Demon God: ???
Mike chuckled. "The original is best, but I won't insist."
With that, Mike turned and walked away.
Behind him, the Second Demon God's voice rang out in reluctant surrender,
"I'll go!"
BAM-
Shadow Three swung his spiked club again, killing the Second Demon God on the spot.
The resurrected Second Demon God, now furious, cursed,
"I already said I'd go! Why did you still kill ?!"
Shadow Three, unfazed, replied,
"Do I need a reason to kill you?"
The Second Demon God: ...
Shadow Three's logic was so sound, he couldn't even argue.
After leaving the Second Abyss, Mike headed to the Fifth Abyss.
Of course, he didn't find the Fifth Demon God there. Instead, he ran into Michael.
Michael looked like he was on the verge of tears.
"Boss, where am I supposed to find my Leader? He's been acting crazy lately. Even if I do find him, he might not even understand what I'm saying!"
"That's not my problem," Mike said firmly.
"Anyway, I've said my piece. When the ti cos, the Demon God must show up. If not, they'll face the consequences."
Hearing such a bold declaration, Michael felt a mix of emotions.
Mike then visited the remaining abysses, delivering the sa ssage to each Demon God.
Whether they listened or not... Mike didn't care.
If the Demon Gods didn't show up, Mike could easily deal with them himself.
Soon, Mike had notified all the Demon Gods.
As for when and where they were supposed to show up, he didn't say a word. Neither did
Apollo.
When Mike returned to Earth, the Forest of Truth was already devoid of Apollo's presence.
Based on his experience, Mike guessed Apollo had likely returned to Florida.
Mike decided to stop by his own house in Florida first.
"What the hell happened here?!"
Mike stood in silence, staring at the scene before him.
His house looked like it had been robbed-or maybe not.
It was spotless. So spotless, in fact, that most of his belongings were gone.
Before Mike could get angry, he saw Joseph and the others carrying in new furniture.
Joseph was carrying a sofa, and lying on the sofa was Shadow Two.
Mike rolled his eyes. "Where's my original sofa?"
Shadow Two quickly jumped off the sofa, raising his hand.
"I know! I know!"
Mike's gaze encouraged him to continue.
At the sa ti, Mike's hand rested on the Thunderclap Hamr, ready to strike at any
mont.
Shadow Two proudly announced,
"I ate it!"
BOOM-
The aftermath of Mike and Shadow Two's clash sent Joseph flying.
Joseph: ...
In the Forest of Truth, the place where the Abyss and Earth connected, things were usually
quiet.
But today, there were visitors.
The four Guardian Shadows responsible for guarding the Forest of Truth were the first to
sense the disturbance. When they rushed to the scene, they found themselves blocked by an invisible barrier, unable to proceed.
Violet tried several tis to break through but failed. She couldn't even see what was
happening inside.
Within the barrier, five Demon Gods stood silently, saying little.
Except for the Archdemon, the other Demon Gods had co in their true forms.
As for the Archdemon, his true body remained lying quietly elsewhere; only an avatar had
co.
Opposite the Demon Gods stood a middle-aged man with a blurred face and a faint smile. He
silently observed the five Demon Gods.
The Fifth Demon God looked at him with dissatisfaction and said,
"Aren't you supposed to be dead?"
Morpheus's fragnted soul smiled helplessly but said nothing.
The Fifth Demon God rubbed his temples and grumbled,
"Humanity isn't in the desperate state it was back then. One more of you doesn't make a
difference, and one less of you doesn't matter either."
The other Demon Gods, however, wore strange expressions.
They had always thought the Fifth Demon God and Morpheus had a terrible relationship-so
bad that Morpheus's death had driven the Fifth Demon God insane.
But now, seeing the two et, there was no expected conflict. Instead, it felt more like a
reunion of old friends.
The other Demon Gods, of course, weren't as reckless as the Fifth Demon God.
In Morpheus's presence, they maintained a respectful and humble deanor.
They knew full well that this was human territory.
Coming to the Forest of Truth in their true forms was already an act of submission, placing
their lives in the hands of their hosts like lambs to the slaughter.
Of course, the Fifth Demon God was an exception-he had co to court death.
Morpheus looked at the five Demon Gods and smiled faintly.
"Apollo is waiting for you in Florida."
He pointed them in the right direction.
The Demon Gods didn't linger and imdiately set off for Florida.
The Fifth Demon God, however, turned back and asked Morpheus's fragnted soul a
question.
"Back then, if I had gone all out to stop you from going to the Supre Abyss, would things
have turned out differently?"
"No," Morpheus replied without hesitation.
The Fifth Demon God frowned. "Why not?"
Morpheus hesitated for a mont, then said sowhat sheepishly,
"Because you couldn't have stopped ."
The Fifth Demon God: ...
"Either way," the Fifth Demon God said stubbornly,
"You're dead, and I'm still alive."
With that, he turned and left, disappearing into the horizon as a streak of light.
In Florida, five Demon Gods appeared on the streets.
Aside from the Fifth Demon God, who wore a luxurious robe and a crown, the others looked
relatively normal.
"I'm hungry," the Fifth Demon God suddenly said, walking toward a nearby food stand.
"Two burgers."
When he moved, the other Demon Gods naturally followed.
Archdemon, Second Demon God, Eighth Demon God, Ninth Demon God.
In terms of strength, all four were beneath the Fifth Demon God.
Most importantly, the Fifth Demon God had one massive advantage: he truly didn't fear
death.
The others didn't share his reckless spirit, so they had no choice but to fall in line.
Even the Archdemon seed to have co to terms with so things recently, showing increasing respect for the Fifth Demon God.
The Fifth Demon God bought two burgers but didn't leave imdiately. Holding a burger in each hand, he turned to the four Demon Gods behind him and asked
seriously,
"Which one of you has money?"
