Devil's Bible

The Goddess of Discipline was extremely unwilling. She thought that if she could obtain the True Spirit and possess that burning flame within it, which seemed to symbolize progress, then her learning ability and growth speed could also continuously improve.

Nemus's initial talent was far inferior to that of the Goddess of Discipline. His talent was only considered good among the Gold Saints. He had some talent in swordsmanship and was expected to become a Sword Saint.

But it was precisely with the unsealing of the true spirit that Nemus's talent continued to improve.

While Nemus's own learning was also important, this learning ability was largely provided by the flame of ambition within the True Spirit.

Without that flame, Nemus wouldn't have been able to transform from a different kind of demon into a world-class god in less than ten years. It would have been a miracle if he had even reached the threshold of becoming a demon lord, given how clever Nemus's otherworldly mind was.

However, it was that very flame that propelled Nemus's growth, constantly accelerating his pace of development.

Less than ten years, less than ten years!!
For a deity, ten years could very well be just the time it takes to take a nap, or perhaps just a short period of time to casually observe other people's lives and enjoy a little pleasure.

But in that short time, Nemus went from falling into the abyss to becoming a demon, step by step reaching a height she could never have reached.

The goddess of discipline was resentful; she couldn't understand why such an unreasonable being existed in the world.

However, it was precisely at the peak of this discontent that the Goddess of Discipline felt a flame begin to burn within her heart.

Nemus, observing this, was slightly taken aback, but then realized what was happening and did nothing to stop her, allowing the same ambitious fire to ignite in the heart of the Goddess of Discipline.

That was a flame within the very essence of her being.

Of course, it wasn't the actual element of fire, but rather a rule, a concept, a cognitive power that transcended common sense.

Under this great force, an uplifting power propelled her thoughts forward.

However, the flame was not very strong, and after it was lit, it appeared somewhat dim.

It was only then that the Goddess of Discipline realized that this flame of ambition was not actually that strong.

At least that's true for the gods.

Or rather, this applies to a deity like her.

After acquiring the divine status of transformation, the goddess of mystery altered her own existence, becoming the goddess of discipline.

After several changes, her existence twisted and turned, all for the sake of occupying the position of the God of Change.

From that time on, she became stagnant and closed off.

She regarded her past glory as everything, something she could hold onto but couldn't let go of.

She pursued eternal glory, hanging God's glory in the past, and refused to let it go no matter what.

In reality, clinging to the position of a god of change and constantly shifting one's identity is ugly enough.

If her first transformation from the goddess of mystery to the goddess of discipline was a definition of the concept of change, then her subsequent transformations, although each one seemed to involve innovation, actually showed that she had given up on continuing to climb higher.

It's more like putting old wine in a new bottle; it looks brand new, but the essence is still the same.

Without sufficient ambition as fuel, the flame of ambition has little effect; at most, it may make one's thinking a little more flexible.

Essentially, this flame is both very special and very ordinary.

It seems to be a standard feature among the Nemus True Spirits.

Among them, the "external existence" and the power of the Sun God that makes everything seem "normal" are the special original abilities of the Nemus True Spirit, while the Flame of Progress, like the True Spirit itself, is the underlying rule of Nemus's world.

Looking closer now, one can see that this flame merely accelerated Naim's future, while simultaneously building a ladder that gave Naim an opportunity to pursue its limits. It was crucial to Naim; without it, Naim might have needed hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years to reach its current level.

However, as long as Nemus's will remains unchanged, no external force can violently kill him.

So perhaps one day Nemes will still be able to stand in the same position based on his own abilities.

Perhaps the power they possess is different from what it is today, perhaps their methods will also be different, and they may even have suffered defeats of varying degrees.

However, the height difference will not be too great.

The Soul-Burning Flame is merely an opportunity and an accelerator.

Only Nemes' own will can determine where this accelerator will take him.

However, this flame did not just infect her in that instant.

The Goddess of Discipline observed her own existence and came to a conclusion—the flames had already spread deep into her mind when she first shared her thoughts with Nemus.

In other words, she already possessed what she previously believed would determine success or failure.

But at that time, she had not truly ignited the flame of ambition.

Upon closer reflection, one can perceive many things. It wasn't until that moment, when she was unwilling to accept defeat, that the idea of ​​continuing to move forward arose in her heart.

If it weren't for this sense of unwillingness to give up, she probably still wouldn't have been able to ignite the flame of ambition.

"So that's how it is. The flame that will determine the future has already been there, but I've long since lost my right to it..."

The divine runes around the goddess of discipline were changing, but they were becoming increasingly chaotic.

Nemus's abyssal power pierced into the divine script system, gradually tearing apart the eternal evolution of the Goddess of Discipline.

In this situation, the Goddess of Discipline discovered that the gods who had previously supported her with all their might seemed to have suddenly lost their strength, and their support of the rules became wavering.

This further hastened the downfall of the goddess of discipline.

At this point, the Goddess of Discipline was truly cornered, with no room for maneuver whatsoever.

The forces that are changing this world are rapidly coming into Nemus’s hands.

The deadly pressure crept in bit by bit, breaking through the divine runes of the Goddess of Discipline and her divine power protection. The prayer angels created earlier became the best weapons to break through.

She charged to the front, unleashing a burst of divine power of the same type, quickly locking onto the goddess of discipline's divine essence and deflecting force.

"Any last words?" Nemus stood before the Goddess of Discipline, offering his final words to her.

The goddess of discipline opened her mouth, but in the end only said, "Even in the end, you still have to insult me ​​like this..."

Before he could finish speaking, Nemus's power erupted in full force, extracting the divine essence of the Goddess of Discipline.

The original deflection force scattered all over the ground, but it did not allow the Goddess of Discipline's last words to fall to the ground.

She was right; Nemes' last question was meant to humiliate her.

"Yes!"

"I hold grudges!" (End of Chapter)
