Chapter 1090: Reactions

A few days later, as Alex expected, the universe was in turmoil.

In the previous place where a woman playing her zither stood the same woman with a smile on her face. Her expression was happy, but she also released killing intent.

"..." She tied her long red hair into a ponytail before glancing at someone behind him.

"You seem to have heard it." It was the same small woman. She could only shake her head helplessly and asked. "Can you stop releasing your killing intent?"

"Ah, sorry. It's not like me at all." She retracted her killing intent while looking at the lake. "To think that right after his coronation, he would wipe out the Array God and all people in his territory, it's something that I would have never thought."

"This will seriously put him in a dangerous position, you know. There is a possibility that many people will band together to kill him, preventing the seed of nightmare from spreading."

"I know. They are just afraid that the Spirit God will rule over them since they still lack many things compared to the previous God Kings." She narrowed her eyes. "What is my reputation in others' eyes anyway?"

"You?" The woman tilted her head in confusion, not knowing why the Song Goddess asked such a question.

"Related to the Spirit God?"

"No. Not one knows about your identity being a follower of a Spirit God other than me." She shook her head, assuring her. "Besides, you are more leaned to the neutral side, so I doubt many people will be looking at you with this going on."

"That's good then. I can use this situation to my advantage." She smiled and released her killing intent again.

"What are you planning? You are not saying that you will immediately announce your allegiance to the Spirit God, right?"

"Of course not. I have a more interesting role to play."

"Don't tell me..." She gasped before her expression turned pale. "Lin Xingzhi won't let you off, you know. You must know her personality!"

"Yes, I know. I will handle Lin Xingzhi myself. As for the Spirit King, I will just say that this is my apology for running away at that time." She shook her head helplessly. "Well, just see how it plays out. I am sure it's going to be amusing. And you are underestimating Lin Xingzhi so much."

"What do you mean?"

"I will only tell you about the reasons behind my confidence and action. I won't tell you my plan." The Song Goddess smiled and opened her mouth.

She gasped when listening to her words, never thinking of all those facts she was talking about. If everything were true, then it would turn the universe upside down.

...

Meanwhile, in a world called Lamoine, the God of Destruction laughed when reading the report. His laugh alone created a shock wave to destroy all the places near him.

"Hahaha! This is truly hilarious."

"This is not a laughing matter." His assistant let out a long sigh. After knowing him for so long, he could already predict what his friend, the God of Destruction, would do with this report.

"I mean, how can you not laugh? The Array God is dead. The Spirit God's current power is a Rank 5 God. Although it's enough to handle Rank 2 Gods, or at least, qualify to escape from them. Many God Kings won't let him go away just like that.

"During this time, they will be under so many assaults. The universe will become fun soon and my body is trembling in joy." The God Of Destruction smirked as if he wanted to enter this chaotic mess.

"..." His assistant became even more hesitant and wondered whether to inform him about a certain matter or not. After contemplating for a few seconds, he decided to do it. "I have a letter coming from the Holy God, asking for you to join his side to stop the Spirit God's madness."

"Huh? Why should I?" The God of Destruction tilted his head as if he thought this proposal was funny.

"Eh?" Even his assistant never expected this answer. "I mean, don't you want to fight the Spirit God?"

"Of course. However, you should know that the Spirit God is someone who doesn't do any mercy. In the worst case, I will bring all my subjects to death with me. Don't tell me you consider me as a muscle brain?"

"You are not?"

"..." The God of Destruction wanted to punch him but refrained himself. "Anyway, if I am going to choose the side, I will surely come to the Spirit God's side. Just think about this. First, I can fight so many God Kings at once, trying to see who among us is the strongest. Second, the current Spirit God is not worth devouring, so I will use this favor to make him promise to fight me when he reaches God King Stage.

"Third, when I die, I doubt that this planet will be destroyed by either side. If the Spirit God won this battle, he would have taken care of my citizens here. If he lost, the enemies wouldn't show that grudge because many would see them the same as the Spirit God and more God Kings would be involved in this matter.

"Fourth, I doubt that Eulja is the only backup he has. As you might know, I aspired to become the God of Destruction because I adored the Spirit God. Everyone kept saying that wherever he goes, destruction will follow. However, don't you think it's weird that as soon as the Spirit God died, Eulja became too passive?

"I am assuming that they are not declining. Instead, they are becoming more and more formidable. Rather than fighting an opponent with unknown strength, I choose to fight the other Gods since we have more information about them.

"Fifth, their preparation must be so deep if they dare to announce the Spirit God's coronation this early. If it were me, I would have announced it when he became a God King instead since the Spirit God seemed to be less than one hundred years old. This is why it's even more terrifying if you look at this point.

"Sixth, those who are afraid of him are just a target to be devoured. If you were panicking only because of his appearance, they are bound to make mistakes from time to time, especially with their information gathering.

"Not only do they have so little time due to the Spirit God's growth speed, but there is no trust among each other. That's why I believe that Eulja will win this fight. Of course, this is just a prediction...Around sixty percent, I guess?

"After all, the one who invited us earlier was the Holy God, right? His reputation was like thunder reverberating in one's ears. He was known for his benevolence. I am sure that his invitation is only pure concern about this situation, but I can't be sure for those who join him.

"That's why there must be more people than we can expect joining his side. Still, If I were to gamble my future, I would place it on the hand of the Spirit God." He smirked while raising his hand.

Meanwhile, his assistant dropped his jaw as he couldn't talk at all. He stared at his friend in disbelief, blinking his eyes a few times as if everything was impossible.

"What? Every time I made a move, I had done the calculation in my head. I just never told anyone about it. However, due to how big the scale of this war is, I need you to trust my judgment and follow me. I trust my back to you, so don't get swayed by their empty promises, alright?" The God of Destruction smiled and patted his friend's shoulder.

"I've always thought that you are nothing but a fool...It seems I have wronged you. Do you want a banana or something to increase your stamina?"

"And why do you even mention a banana..." He frowned and shook his head. "Anyway, just tell them that I am sick."

"A God King can't be sick."

"Then poisoned."

"Well, it's good then. You are foolish enough to get poisoned, so I will tell them that exact line."

"Is foolish necessary?" The God of Destruction really wanted to punch him, but the latter already escaped while saying. "See you later."

"Oi!" He facepalmed and dropped to the ground, looking at the blue sky. "Still, the hardest part will be convincing them. I can use the Universe Oath, but how should I make them believe me before that? I need to create an opportunity to talk as well and make sure that no one can find me when I meet him. I wonder if I should just remain neutral...Nah. There must be a reason why the Spirit God would have reincarnated at this timeline.

"The Nature Goddess has been searching for his reincarnation for thousands of years. With Eulja's power, they should have been able to find him in just one thousand years at maximum. Yet, he has never appeared. I am sure that there is something going on. I need to know what is the purpose of his reincarnation. Haiz, I smell destruction. I'm really going to be enjoying my time with this new Spirit God." The man smirked.

It turned out that the man who kept saying about fighting and fighting was a genius. He wasn't rash and could see the whole picture despite the little clue he had.

What would happen when he met Alex?

...

In another word called Holy Land, an old man walked toward a long table where ten people sat next to each other, standing and cupping their hands toward the old man. "Greetings, Supreme Pontiff, O' Holy God."

"Good morning. I believe that I have sent you the letter of what we are going to discuss here..." The old man sighed and walked into his own chair before sitting down with a tired expression.

"Are we going to clash with the Spirit God?" A woman stood up and asked politely. Her blonde hair was tied into a ponytail. She wore a blue shirt and a knee-length skirt. However, there was a sword hanging on her waist, making one rethink their decision whether to get close to her or not.

"Saintess..." The old man let out a long sigh. "After learning about the Spirit God's coronation, I didn't have any plan to attack him. But...Everything changed when he killed billions of lives right after his coronation. If you told me that the Spirit God wouldn't do anything more than that, I wouldn't believe your words.

"Hence, I am going to stop right here and right now before more lives disappear. I don't wish for our people to stop living in peace. With the current opinion, they will surely live and sleep in fear, thinking the Spirit God would attack them so suddenly.

"As much as I hate to do it, I am required to ask other God Kings to participate in this alliance in order to stop the Spirit God. For me, I have no plan to kill him. As long as he makes a Universe Oath to stop killing people, I will protect him from the others and declare that the war has ended."

The Saintess thought for a moment and asked. "Have you ever considered talking to him?"

"I have. In fact, I am planning to visit him in the near future. The invitation that I sent will be held in two years. I am sure that even with the Spirit God's growth speed, it's still impossible for him to reach Rank 4 God. Hopefully, the talk can be ended peacefully..." He sighed.

"Holy God, I am sure that you are too soft in this matter." Suddenly, a young man stood up. His body was covered with body armor, leaving only his face and spiky blonde hair.

"You may be right. But please understand that I only want peace, nothing else. Besides, the Spirit God is the ruler of Eulja, one of the strongest planets out there. With their scale, as long as the Spirit God changes his way, I am sure that many people will have a smile on their faces. That's my sincere wish. I wonder if you can follow me in this?" The Holy God made a genuine smile.

"..." The Young Man closed his eyes for a few seconds before bowing his head as if telling his answer.

The Holy God only smiled.
