*Boom*
An explosion occurred in the middle of a rainstorm in the Atlantic Ocean. Several shockwaves clashed in the air as the two people exchanged moves intending to defeat each other.
“Hmph!” Xero unleashed his finishing blow on his opponent with his divine-class dark magic.
*Swoosh*
Eleven black spears shot out like guided missiles and pierced his opponent from various directions.
“With this, you cannot put up another fight. Your power is sealed.” Xero kicked the muscular deity down onto a small island. He impaled his opponent with his divine spear.
“Hehe, it was a great fight. What are you going to do next? Kill , hmm?” The muscular deity grinned. He was defeated, but he was still calm and serene.
“Why should I? Heaven’s law will take the trouble to punish you in due course.” Xero forcibly took the king piece from the deity, then shackled his catch with a rope of darkness.
“Hou~ We shall fight again, little devil. At that ti, I will beat you to a pulp. Just so you know, I haven’t given my all. This isn’t my final form yet.” The muscular deity put his contingency plan and trump card back in his mind. He lost in a fantastic yet fair battle and had no reason to launch his ultimate final move.
“You are a loser here no matter what excuse you have. Go to prison and wait for your judgnt day to arrive. Because of this stupid ga, my plans to join the party in the Heaven Realm have been delayed.” Xero snorted and kicked the muscular deity into the prison in his Limbo Realm.
“Well, that’s the third king piece. You’re pretty good in that armor of darkness. That way, I won’t have to look at your annoying face.” A little water orb flew out of her hiding place around Xero’s neck.
“I still have two more chess pieces to keep track of the other two deities.” Xero put the king piece into his dark pouch and then took out the other chess pieces.
“Hmm…” The water spirit took a talisman from inside her body.
“I advise us to return. The sun has set over Japan, and our hours of operation are over. Let’s call this a day, and we can continue our hunt tomorrow.” The water spirit suggests the opposite of the little devil’s intentions.
“It’s only three king pieces. I’m not satisfied yet. I’ll hunt two more before returning.” Xero rejected the suggestion.
“We’ve been asked to return. Our missions are estimated to be completed in less than five days. Three tis six is eighteen. We can finish it in three or four days. Therefore, I’m not going with you. I will also tell your transgressions and misdeeds to Elysia and her master. Let’s see if you are still stubborn or not. Hmph!” The water spirit snorted and turned around. She would use that teleportation talisman to return to Japan, with or without the little devil.
“Tch, fine. I presu you are a girl. Won are so annoying.” Xero deactivated his divine armor.
At that very mont, Elysia spoke to Xero’s mind via telepathy. ‘Ah, finally able to connect without interruption. Is it because the distance is too far, and you are wearing your divine armor? Anyway, please imdiately return to our temporary base in Japan using the teleport talisman. We have an important eting after dinner. Sothing unexpected happens.’
‘Fine.’ Xero rubbed his head and sighed.
With that being said, Xero imdiately returned to their temporary base in Japan with the water spirit.
When he arrived there, the delicious aroma of dinner imdiately assaulted his sense of sll. He looked around, and everyone was present.
“Hehe, how was your hunt today? Was it satisfactory?” Nell chuckled like she was mocking soone.
“Not too bad. I had a pretty great battle over the Ocean of Atlantis.” Xero raised his palm. He felt pretty light after blowing off so steam. He then put his catch on the table, three king pieces, and two pawns.
“Three, huh… So, we’ve almost eliminated half of the participants in just one day.” Nell tapped her chin.
“Almost half? What do you an by that?” Xero frowned.
“Yep, that’s it. We’re almost half done. Look at this. This is the result of my hunting operation, and this is–” Nell flew over to the table and took out chess pieces from each pouch.
“…” Xero had just felt satisfied, but now he was annoyed. The one who got the most prey was Rhea’s team. It was still tolerable.
However, the thing that was difficult for Xero to accept was that Nell’s team managed to hunt down six king pieces and beco the second-best team! And Nell was the weakest Goddess here!
“The deities you t were so weak or what? It’s hard to believe.” Xero folded his arms and sat on the sofa while grumbling.
“Well, we haven’t dealt with the true powerful deities yet. You might be too busy toying with your opponents and torturing them. Or, you’ve t one of the powerful deities in question. However, Aria has t one that might be the powerful demon, the Demon. God.” Lifa laughed lightly while waving her hand in front of her face.
“How about having dinner first and relaxing for a bit? After that, we’ll have an important eting to discuss the plan.” Elena told everyone to have dinner because everything was ready at the dinner table.
“Yeah, I’m coming!” Nell raised her hand and flew to the dining table. Everyone then joined in the hearty dinner.
After dinner, the crucial eting was not held imdiately. Instead, everyone sat in the living room talking about sothing light about their encounter on their mission that day.
“Ely… I’m sleepy. Let go back to your shadow.” Ai rubbed her eyes as she approached Elysia on the sofa.
“Mm, sure. Thanks for the hard work. Hm, how about Cherub?” Elysia stood up and held Ai’s hand.
“Cherub? He’s lazy, greedy, and not very useful on missions yet. He’s there, sleeping on Gio’s back.” Ai pointed at a small black dragon on the brown tortoise’s back.
“Please don’t say that. He’s still recovering, right?” Elysia glanced at the two little ones in the corner of the room. They looked comfortable sleeping near warm light and warm devices.
“Ah, yes… He ate so demons this afternoon too.” Ai nodded slightly.
“Demons?” Elysia was stunned.
“Mm, good night. I won’t be participating in the eting, but I leave everything to you.” Ai nodded slightly and pinched Elysia’s cheek. She then entered Elysia’s shadow right away.
“Yeah, demons. They were summoned into this world by the powerful evil deities, the demonic beings. I told you, right? The strongest one is the Devil God.” Sora jumped up and down on the table. She is also having a small eting with her fellow nature spirits.
“I see…” Elysia sat back down on the sofa. A white cat and a seven-tailed fox imdiately jumped into her lap again for their fluffy ti routine.
Vanessa and Yuuki purred because they felt comfortable and warm being there. Not to ntion, the heavenly touch that their master gave really made them addicted. A quality ti like this was a peak of inner satisfaction.
“Nee, master. Is it true that humans in this world treat cats like pests? So feral species have also beco extinct like tigers.” Vanessa looked up and asked with a sad look.
“Hm, I believe it’s not like that. May I know where you got that conclusion, Vann?” Elysia was a bit taken aback, but she couldn’t confirm the facts either.
“Wendy said that. And the situation in Australia isn’t so great for cats either.” Vanessa folded her ears.
Elysia glanced at the wind spirit briefly, then took out her smartphone. “Let’s see… As far as I know, so tiger species did beco extinct decades ago, like the Bali Tiger, for example. However, the causes are varied. For cats being treated like pests in Australia… Wait a minute.” Elysia froze for a mont when she saw the news regarding it.
That was true, and the plan to eradicate two million cats has been implented in the last few years.
“Cats ca to Australia because of foreign traders. They are apex predators and breed quickly. In a survey seven years ago, the feral cat population beca too much on the continent, and that’s why that tragedy happened. Overpopulation has been bad, ever since the beginning of ti.” Elysia heaved a subtle sigh.
“Right? Will humans here also have a such natural selection? Earth is overpopulated by humans.” Vanessa asked with deep aning.
“I believe there is such a thing, and everyone will get retribution for all their deeds. The good shall go to heaven, and the bad shall fall to hell. That is the rule in this world. Maybe the good cats and tigers have paradise in heaven now, Vann. Heaven Realm is an enormous place with seven layers of worlds.” Elysia explained a little and smiled gently at Vanessa.
“Oh~” It was such pleasant news for Vanessa. As it turned out, the situation wasn’t too bad. The good cats and tigers were probably in heaven by now.
“Hey, so people in that country these days eat almost anything, even cats. Did you know that?”
“Yes, I know that. They actually eat anything for reasons I can’t understand. Foxes, turtles, lizards, insects, and even sothing disturbing… I am horrified by a human species like them. “
“Should we give disaster to remind them?”
“I wouldn’t be surprised if they went into cannibalism like the tragedy in the dark ages.”
The nature spirits opened a disturbing discussion. Vanessa, Yuuki, and almost everyone else stared in dissatisfaction at the nature spirits.
“Couldn’t you have discussed sothing pleasant, important, or useful?” Rhea took a large jar and put all the nature spirits in it.
“Uh, what?” One of the nature spirits stared in wonder.
“Here, this is for you to pass the ti.” Rhea put a little transparent crystal ball into the jar.
“What’s this?” Sora tapped the crystal ball, but she was suddenly sucked into it. The crystal ball soon turned green. “Wow, is this a neutral elental crystal? This is mine!”
“Wait, what? Things like that still exist in this world? Let try to get in there!”
“I heard a treasure like this can store our elental power reserves.”
“Yes, double the backup power.”
“However, the crystal is only one!”
“Wha, wait. It’s mine because I was the first to get it!”
The nature spirits soon scrambled for possession of that neutral elental crystal. The color change then illuminated the room like a disco light.
“Here, I’m giving you so. Be good spirits and listen to .” Rhea put so small crystal balls into the jar, enough for all nature spirits to play with.
“Yes, ma’am!” The nature spirits cheered happily.
“…” Elysia just smiled at Rhea.
