Chapter 519: The Sixth Representative.

Chapter 519: The Sixth Representative.

"Very Well." He turned his attention to the other guests.

"Starting now with the gods, do you have any demands?"

Shiva was silent for a few seconds as if he was wondering whether to talk about it or not.

'Haah, I have no choice, even if it's something I don't agree with. I'm the representative.'

Having made a decision, he spoke:

"I have a request related to Greek mythology."

"Proceed."

In the same neutral tone, Shiva continued, "Some time ago, an incident happened in Greece."

"Someone stole a divine artifact from the Greeks and managed to make copies of that artifact."

"..." Volk, Evie, Miguel, Haruna, and even Vlad and his escorts frowned at this information.

"Although the divine artifact was recovered, the copies were not, and the culprit of the incident remains unknown."

Victor did have thick skin, an incident related to him was being talked about, and he remained aloof and even displayed slightly shocked reactions, the same as everyone else.

The Greeks don't really know what happened, So Aphrodite must have kept everyone in the dark and just returned the original divine artifact.

'But when did she retrieve the original divine artifact? I looked and didn't find it. I just found the copies... And whoever created the copies~' Victor thought about the witches being protected by Esther.

They have become a valuable resource for Victor's group, and because of that, they are protected 24 hours a day.

"To prevent such a situation from happening in the future, the Greek pantheon proposes that if a divine artifact is stolen and found by one of the Factions present, it should be returned to its rightful owner."

"Hmm..." The organizer nodded and looked at everyone present:

"Representatives, raise your hand to anyone who wants to support the creation of a new rule involving divine artifacts."

Volk, Vlad, Evie, and Haruna didn't raise their hands.

Only Michael raised his hand.

2x4 The majority voted against it.

"The reason to deny it?" He looked at Volk and Evie.

"Problematic." Volk replied.

"Indeed." Evie would never support that. If she got her hand on the divine artifact, she'd rather keep it to herself.

The man's gaze shifted to Vlad and Haruna.

"Same reason. Adding more rules regarding divine artifacts is pointless."

'Not to mention that the faction that takes a divine artifact will keep it as a trump card.'

"Gods steal things all the time from mortals, and when mortals steal from them, they make rules to prevent it? Hypocrisy at its best. Sorry, I deny that." She was brutally honest, and it's worth mentioning that she doesn't have a good impression of the gods.

"Pfft." Victor, Agnes, Natashia, Volk, and Scathach could barely contain themselves with Haruna's brutally honest answer.

"H-Haruna." Kuroka pinched the woman's belly.

"..." Haruna looked at Kuroka with a neutral look. She understood that she should mince her words a little. She is, after all, the weakest faction, soon after she went back to looking at the beings.

"...You don't seem to have good relationships with the gods, little girl." Shiva commented with a shaky smile.

"Our gods weren't very...sociable, and I realize that's not just true of the gods of my country." She looked at Zeus and Thor in disdain and disgust.

Men were lusting after her body shamelessly. To her, these beings, they were not gods.

Looking back to the god who from the beginning always looked at her with respect, and a slight curiosity spoke:

"Not everyone is like you, Shiva-dono."

"...." Shiva just smiled awkwardly, he completely understood what the woman was saying, and it was worth saying that her reaction was expected. After all, her race was treated as a slave by the gods of her country.

He was just surprised she was brutally honest.

"By majority vote, the rule was negated." The man commented in an emotionless tone.

"Tsk." Zeus clicked his tongue and glared at Haruna with hostility.

The reason? She was the easiest target.

After all, the other beings present also denied his request.

Victor and Vlad's eyes gleamed with disdain when they saw this.

Vlad may have his issues and always put Nightingale ahead of everything, which wasn't wrong, but he wouldn't stand by when someone threatened his late wife's only relative.

"Representatives of the angels, do you have any—."

"...?" Everyone looked at the man with a questioning look. Why did he suddenly stop?

"Changes have taken place." The expression on his face was slightly frowning.

A reaction that Vlad and Shiva understood very well.

He got up from his chair and spoke in a neutral tone:

"Sixth guest, representing the demons of hell."

"..." Everyone opened their eyes wide.

'Did the demons decide to attend? What's up?' Everyone knows that Lilith was invited, but she is currently unavailable.

"The woman who was banished from genesis by the heavenly father."

Michael bit his lip, and Gabriel showed hostility.

"The ancient progenitor of humans, now the progenitor of demons."

"The woman who holds the title of mother of demons."

"The goddess of demons, Lilith."

Unlike before, the woman appeared directly in the meeting room.

Unlike the last time Victor had caught a glimpse, the woman looked completely different. She had long white hair, pale skin almost as pale as Alice, two large horns on her head, and a voluptuous body that aroused the lust of every male present.

She had a long pointed tail that reached to the ground and two large wings that seemed to grow from her hips.

She was tall, measuring two meters, an irregularity among humans, but to the beings present? She was of average height.

She was wearing a black dress with the skirt parted so that she could move around. The dress left ample cleavage on her breasts.

Her blood-red eyes looked at everyone indifferently.

She completely ignored the hostile eyes of the angels and even looked at them with disdain. The feeling was mutual after all, the curious eyes of beings like Evie, and Volk, the lustful eyes of the two gods who think with Dick.

Shiva's slightly interested eyes.

The wary eyes of the two strongest vampires.

'Hmm?' Looking at someone, she saw interest and a certain... amusement?

'Huh?'

Victor can't help but think about the conversation he had with Adonis when they were discussing a possible way to save the man.

"Basically, you should fuck Lilith!"

And remembering that, he couldn't help but laugh in amusement, which caught the woman off guard by this reaction.

Unlike Victor, who was looking at this in amusement, Vlad was cautious, very cautious.

'Last time I saw her, she was tied up, looking defeated, and completely different... Now, she's here...' It's worth noting that this change was not a welcome change for the old vampire.

'After all, what happened? Is she an imposter? After all, her appearance has changed a lot, but... there's no way my friend could get his words wrong.' Imagining the owner of The Limbo prison getting his words wrong was impossible for Vlad.

Something was stinking, and it wasn't Thor.

'Tsk, it only remains to observe now.'

'The ritual worked, huh...' Evie thought as she looked at Lilith's appearance.

"Following Lilith."

"The king of hell, the one who commands a legion of thirsty demons, the one born from the negative feelings of billions of beings."

"Devil."

A being over 5 meters tall appears in the room. He was completely red and had a muscular chest, horns, sharp teeth, sharp claws, large demonic wings, and a long sharp tail that seemed to pierce through anything.

He was how humans describe an evil being.

He was demonic.

He was a monster.

He was Diablo, the incarnation of evil.

And he didn't come with good intentions. His bright eyes of evil intentions proved that point.

The moment the demonic being appeared, it single-handedly raised the caution of everyone present at some points except the event organizer, and Shiva remained indifferent.

Lilith spoke in her melodious voice that seemed to reach all the lustful gods of man.

"I ask permission for my companion to speak."

A silence fell around for a few seconds.

And at that time, Victor thought:

'Hmm, Aphrodite is much more dangerous than her.' Victor didn't feel that wariness he felt when he spoke to Aphrodite for the first time.

He's changed a lot since that time, and even now, he has a resistance to the charms of beings like Lilith.

But what he meant was that Lilith didn't arouse his feelings of arousal like the goddess of love did.

'I think comparing the two was wrong, while Aphrodite is a goddess with specific concepts in love, sex, and beauty. Lilith is more of a goddess of a race, a progenitor.'

"...First, sit down, Lilith."

"..." The woman raised an eyebrow.

"I-."

"Sit...down, Lilith."

For a second, all the beings present felt a shiver down their spines, and that mere second was enough for everyone to remember that... This man was not one of the most powerful existences for nothing.

Don't confuse neutrality with passivity. If necessary, he will act, just as happened in the past, where he imprisoned several gods from several different pantheons.

Gods who, to this day, are still stuck in limbo.

"..." Lilith nodded and took her seat.

"Did you feel it, Victor?" Scathach asked.

"...Yes." Victor had long since lost his easygoing face.

"It was like I was a normal human standing in front of a hurricane... A force of nature, and in front of that force, I was nothing."

"...." Natashia and Agnes didn't say anything because they felt the same thing when they felt a fraction of this being's 'existence' in the past.

'Even after increasing my strength, I'm still nothing in front of him, huh.' Agnes thought as she gripped her sword.

"Correct." Scathach took a deep breath and calmed her feelings as she eased some of her grip on her spear.

"This man is a force of nature, something that exists to keep the 'order' of everything existing."

"A neutral force... That must never be provoked."

There were forces in this world that the mere thought of facing them was sheer foolishness, like a human facing a massive Category 10 hurricane.

In front of these forces, the adjective called 'force' should be re-evaluated.

...

..

.

But would that discourage Victor?

Haaah! Of course not! The term give up doesn't exist in Victor's dictionary!

"I see... A force of nature, huh..."

"I just need to become stronger."

"..." Scathach flashed a small smile. That side of him never changed, even when she first met him.

"Strong enough to survive a force of nature like him."

Agnes and Natashia just flashed a smile as if they had no choice.

"I need more power." Victor clenched his fists as a sharp smile spread across his face.

Vlad looked back and saw Victor's eyes glowing blood red.

"So Much More..."

"Power enough to face the force of nature... Power enough to make a hurricane a natural disaster, my bitch."

'I need more power!' Victor's eyes gleamed with hunger, hunger for power.

And... A new final objective appeared in front of Victor.

Victor closed his eyes and controlled his emotions.

'Baby steps, Victor.' He reminded himself not to rush, one step at a time. Rome was not built in a day, and neither was a gallows like that man's. He is older than everyone present here.

'One step at a time... One goal at a time... I just have to keep walking this path I've chosen.' When Victor opened his eyes, it was no longer the immeasurable force of nature that was in his vision.

And yes, a woman with long red hair... Which, like the being of nature, was also immeasurable for the current Victor.

Scathach's smile grew as she felt all of Victor's existence looking at her, just her!

'Haah~, you can never really let me down, Victor. From the beginning, you've always been like that... And that's what I love most about you~' Scathach's heart beat in obsession and love.

And most of all, happiness. Happiness that even after feeling the 'immeasurable', he didn't give up.

Like her, he didn't give up!!

He can walk that path with her!

The path of a strength she never managed to reach, and unlike before, when she was feeling lost. She felt that with this man by her side, she would be able to achieve that goal.

She couldn't be happier!

'Hah~, I really want to take him to a room now.'

'Come to me, Victor, become strong, defeat me so that we can walk this path together.' Scathach's heart was pounding like mad.

"...." At this moment, Agnes and Natashia were feeling overwhelmed. As they were closer to Victor, they could feel Victor's determination.

'Darling...' Natashia clenched her fists.

'If that's what you want... It will be done.' Natashia's eyes turned dark as a black hole.

"Agnes."

"Yes?" Agnes was surprised when she saw Natashia's gaze.

'Why is she imitating me?'

"We need to talk."

"Eh...? Now?"

"Later, me and you, alone."

"Okay..." That was all Agnes said before turning her head to Victor and feeling his feelings.

'First, I must defeat her. The woman I respect the most, my master, the woman who made me the warrior I am today, Scathach Scarlett.'

'After that, only the future self will know.' He chuckled inwardly.

An imperceptible smile appeared on the meeting organizer's face.

'Just as my prison administrator said... He is an interesting existence.' Some time ago, he was curious why the administrator of his prison, a man who usually stays doing his job, decided to appear in front of a being.

And now, he could understand why he did it.

'Even when faced with a force of nature, instead of faltering and feeling without purpose, he got up and went on.'

'An innate determination that was born with him, a personality that never gives up... It seems that in the future, the great players will change~. I can't wait for that day.'

"Continuing... Representative of the angels."

"!!!" Michael and Gabriel opened their eyes as they felt the weight in the man's voice.

Feeling that he should clarify something, the man spoke.

"Please keep hostility to a minimum."

"Any act of aggression will not be forgiven."

"...If this rule is broken." Then, for the first time since the meeting began, the man with the poker face flashed a soft smile.

"My prison will welcome aggressors with open doors."

.........
