Reincarnated With A Glitched System: Why Is My MP Not Running Out?

Chapter 881 The Evil Gods' Hunger

-----

Within the desolate, dark skies of the Demon Continent, the wills of many Evil Gods gathered, talking about what had just happened. A large piece of Lolth having disappeared was something most Gods easily felt, especially when everything happened just in the surface, and it wasn't a battle inside a Divine Realm.

"Lolth, just what happened to her?! Where is she right now?!"

"Her whereabouts are unknown, but she lost a good chunk of her soul and powers, she's going to be very weak now…"

"Who… did this?! Could it be a God from High Heaven? Or… maybe the Archdemons of our former world?"

"None of those…"

A voice everyone recognized, coming from the most infamous Evil God in the world resonated within the many God Wills speaking with one another.

All their presences quickly reached him, his presence was the strongest of them all, so powerful he rivaled the Chief Gods despite having been a Servant God before.

"God of Dungeons… You know who it was?"

"Of course I know." The presence said in a rather cynical tone. "Stop pretending to not know either, just because it was a mortal who did it doesn't mean you can just ignore the facts."

"But that's just not possible! Those mortals were made to serve us!"

"They're our slaves, beings we made inside of tubes and laboratories, how come… how is it possible that one could do such a thing?!"

"That's… it gotta be another reason! That mortal, whoever it is…!"

"I know who she is." The presence laughed. "After all, we got quite the history together. I've been trying to kill her since she was a toddler, and time and time again, I failed. Her powers just aren't of this world. She's… just like that other guy, a Reincarnated Soul from another world, gifted with a System."

"A-A System…!"

"Those legendary divine artifacts that the Gods of Transmigration can craft?!"

"A-Are you sure of this information, God of Dungeons?!"

"You may choose to believe me or not." Laughed the God of Dungeons. "God of Darkness, you've got quite the history with her, is it not?"

"T-Tch… That was merely… just a nibble! I didn't get attacked at all!" 

The other Evil Gods quickly started mocking him… 

"That nibble she did to you might had been what gave her that taste for god's souls. Wherever Lolth is now, she's very weakened. She just broke her alliance with me too, so you're all free to find her and eat her if you want to. She's quite the cockroach though, so she will not go down easily… Goodbye for now."

The God of Dungeons' Will quickly disappeared, as the other Evil Gods smiled maliciously within their Divine Realms. Unlike the Gods in the High Heavens, alliances here were always temporary, and their goals were selfish and not shared. They predated one another if the opportunity arose.

And there was no way they'll let Lolth, so weakened as of now, get to recover easily while exposing herself like she did now… To eat another god was one of the few easy ways to grow stronger, but it was a monumental task, as god were powerful entities, even when fighting against one another.

Usually, it wasn't worth the risk, but when opportunities like these arose, they simply had to take it.

"You said she's hiding in the Atlanta Continent's sky, isn't it?"

"He did say that…"

"I see…"

"Well, whoever finds her first will be quite fortunate…"

The Evil Gods Will gathering quickly broke, as they all moved their separate ways, across the skies within their Divine Realms, completely undetected by any mortal…

At the same time, above a ruined-looking dark castle, in the middle of a wasteland inside the Demon Continent, a young man with sharp red eyes and short dark purple hair glanced into the night sky.

The moonlight reflected itself into his eyes, as his pale white skin seemed to be slowly enjoying the night's delight.

A smile slowly curled on his lips, in front of the ruined castle, an enormous army of thousands of monsters rested, having defeated yet another enemy faction that denied him as their new ruler.

"Ahhh, what was that presence I just felt?" He wondered. "Such a delightful scream. Could it be… An Evil God dying? I do wonder… Was it them? The other one? The one that the God of Transmigration called a "Failure"… You're certainly not one, aren't you?"

Behind him stood several powerful Demons, their overwhelming auras seemed threatening, yet they all protected the young boy, with strong, loyal hearts.

"Don't you think, my friends?" He asked to his subordinates, with a charismatic, almost eccentric smile, filled with lust for power, insanity, and delight all mixed together. "I want to meet them so badly… I just can't wait~"

At the same time, within the Human Continent of Gallatea, in the depths of the Uegenne Holy Kingdom's Main Church Temple of the Twelve Gods.

Hundreds of priests and nuns kneeled in front of a single man, the pope, who sat down over a throne of gold, glancing at the statues of the Twelve Gods lined through their church.

A golden crystal ball in front of him revealed him the Will of the Gods, as his golden eyes opened, his old body seemed weak, but it was overflowing with tremendous magical power.

"We've received a new revelation from the Chief Gods… The Heroes have defeated an Evil Goddess!" He celebrated, the priests and priestesses celebrated as well. "However…"

His face filled with joy quickly changed into one with contempt, as he gently caressed the golden crystal ball, his eyes glowing bright gold.

"Those filthy elves that do not follow the religions completely… Dare steal our heroes and impart into them insane, maddening knowledge. The Gods are not pleased with this. They ask for a crusade, they ask for us to retrieve our Heroes! The new generations shall protect our Continent, our Holy Kingdom!"

A smile surged on his old lips, as he looked into the moonlight reflecting from the window.

"Yes… At long last, the heroes will be ours, and everything else they hold… It might take years, but they will be ours. The Gods are on our side!"
