The magic cards I made are absolutely flawless!

When Dekan uttered the words "false god," the god of words, Apertos, trembled, as if his most painful wound had been reopened.

"It's ironic, really. The Shadow World was meant to make the real world last longer, but because of the deaths of the gods, such a flawed Shadow World was born: the [Battlefield of Heaven and Earth Annihilation]. Perhaps this is the resentment of the defeated gods."

"In a sense, the existence of you Chaos Gods represents the evil of the gods, while the Goddess Tiki is the last remaining good god in the world."

Apart from the God of Destiny, all the gods who perished back then were recorded by the Shadow World Central Hub and transformed into the Chaos Gods in the [Battlefield of Heaven-Reaching Annihilation].

"And you, the flawed products projected into a flawed world of shadows, are so eager to make this world of shadows unusable, and the reason for that is itself quite pathetic."

At this point, Dekan couldn't help but chuckle.

The laughter was like a knife to the God of Words, as if it could pierce his heart directly from his ears; he just wanted to shut off his hearing.

"You only wish to erase the history of many worlds, so that no living being on earth will know your origins, and then you will write the history of all worlds yourselves. In this way, you can use your overwhelming power over other living beings to openly call yourselves true gods."

"But what's laughable is that you still can't bear to destroy the divine murals in the Chaos God Realm. It's not just because you're arrogant and think no living being can leave alive after arriving here. It's also because you're unwilling to admit the fact that you're deceiving yourself."

“You still consider yourselves the true gods of the Age of Gods. You want to claim this history as your own. You regard the Chaos God Realm as your pride. If you erase everything in the Chaos God Realm, you will lose the foundation for your self-deception.”

Listen to every word Dekan says.

The Word Spirit God's eyelids trembled, as if something inside his body had been torn apart from within. As the words cut into the depths of his heart like sharp blades, despair shone in his eyes, as if the whole world was mocking him.

"...It is your great victory that destroys this chaotic divine realm, and then everything will be over."

The Word Spirit finally spoke.

His voice, however, seemed to have lost its original weighty, almost magical quality, and had become weary, like that of a lost soul.

He knew that this human had left him here to see him destroyed from the inside out.

Then, all that's needed is to destroy this chaotic divine realm for the chaotic gods to see, shattering their illusions, which would be the best torture for them.

Dekan was slightly surprised when he heard the words of the Word God Apertos.

It seemed that the Chaos God was quite savvy, knowing that he had been talking to him for so long just to see him break down.

Indeed, destroying the Chaos God Realm in front of the Chaos God would allow them to torment it even further.

This is also a necessary condition for clearing the [Battlefield of Heavenly Annihilation].

But Dekan felt that this Word Spirit God thought too badly of him; he wasn't the kind of person who liked to cause trouble.

"No, why would I want to destroy this place?"

Dekan smiled broadly.

"This place is so beautiful, why can't I let every world know the story of the Chaos God, and then preserve this world for people to visit? That way, your pathetic deeds can be nailed to the pillar of shame and tortured for thousands of generations. Wouldn't that be better?"

"If you don't destroy this place..."

"Word Spirit God murmured."

He stared blankly at Dekan's smile, unable to fathom what Dekan was up to.

Given humanity's motive of wanting to erase the Chaos God, the Chaos God Realm should absolutely not have been preserved!

As long as this realm exists, the Chaos Gods will eventually have the freedom to travel back and forth and reach other worlds!

As for whether one should stay here to guard this spatial gate, or actively go to various worlds to hunt down ninth-order Chaos Gods, it is clear that even if this human spends his entire life on it, he will not be able to accomplish it!

Leaving aside issues such as energy, world coordinates, time and lifespan, and the Chaos Gods who are still sealed away and will be revived in a thousand years, let's set aside the matter for now.

This human only needs to make one mistake.

Even if one Chaos God were to realize the problem and choose to commit suicide decisively.

These will all be disasters that no world can bear ten thousand years from now.

Ten thousand years ago, the condition for the beings who were challenging the [Battlefield of Heaven and Earth Annihilation] to pass was to destroy the core of the [Battlefield of Heaven and Earth Annihilation] and block the way for the Chaos Gods to freely travel to other worlds!

Because neither killing all the Chaos Gods nor "completely annihilating" all the Chaos Gods is something that the living beings cannot do in the normal process of challenging the [Battlefield of Annihilation of Heaven and Earth]!

In the last tenth-tier shadow world, the living beings naturally lost.

Many worlds have also suffered varying degrees of damage.

The complete destruction of the Demon Realm was the punishment imposed on the Holy Kingdom's Demon Realm world by the failure of the Tenth-Order Shadow World.

Although most of the Chaos Gods were either killed or sealed after the Chaos Liberation was activated, a few Chaos Gods survived or revived by taking advantage of time differences.

They then took advantage of the time when many worlds were devastated and powerful beings were nearly wiped out to invade them again, erasing history!

Originally, just one more round of the [Battlefield of Annihilation of Heaven and Earth] would have been enough for the Chaos Gods to be certain that they would completely overwhelm all worlds.

But this sudden reverse invasion by humans extinguished their hopes.

Once the central hub of the [Battlefield of Heavenly Annihilation] is destroyed, the Chaos Gods' spatial teleportation ability will be severed, and this domain will naturally collapse.

But if this human truly doesn't intend to destroy the Chaos God Realm, then what does he intend to do...?!

"Do you intend to invade the central hub of the entire Shadow World?"

The god of words, Apertos, eventually came to a terrible conclusion.

This was the only possibility he could think of!

"No! Even if you force me to use Word of Power to directly attack the central nervous system, I cannot accomplish something to that extent, even if it costs me my life!"

Appertos seemed to have regained his fear and shouted.

If this human were to truly torment him and force him to use the power of words to do something impossible, not only would it fail to achieve the desired effect, but he would also suffer unimaginable backlash that transcends death!

"What are you thinking? Are you so scared that you're talking nonsense?"

Dekan glanced at the Word Spirit God.

He felt a bit speechless; he didn't know what kind of monstrous creature this Word Spirit God thought he was.

Let's not even talk about how wasteful it is to use the power of words like a disposable toy.

Invading the central hub of all shadow worlds?

That is the supreme masterpiece created by the gods!

Let alone the Chaos God, even if you brought in a real god, you couldn't destroy it, let alone control it.

At most, all Decan can do is to collect scraps from remotely deployed, unconnected parts of the central hub.

After studying Amen once, Dekan had already made up his mind.

The possibility of any living being invading the central core of the Shadow World is zero.

But the key point is...

The existence of the Shadow World is to maintain and strengthen the stability of the world and benefit all living beings.

To destroy this masterpiece of the gods would truly make one a sinner for all time.

"Besides, I wouldn't be so careless as to let you take off your mask."

Dekan muttered to himself.

Dekan wouldn't easily let this Word Spirit use his abilities unless he brought this Word Spirit back to the mortal world and had Mier perform some brain surgery on him.

Dekan is a very meticulous person.

If he only wants to clear the [Battlefield of Heavenly Annihilation], he can simply destroy it before it opens.

They could have taken action much earlier.

He brought Talomati here, and all the Chaos Gods that could get in his way were sent into life support pods, so destroying the core wasn't difficult.

Even if some Chaos Gods have not yet been revived or have traveled to various worlds and have not been eradicated, most of the Chaos Gods have been captured by Dekan. As long as they lose their teleportation ability, the Chaos Gods will no longer be such a terrible disaster for the people of various worlds in later generations.

But Dekan felt that doing so couldn't be considered a permanent solution, and he didn't like it.

He has a better idea, so he's working hard on scientific research.

Chloeux has been maintaining the proper functioning of the machinery inside the space jump gate.

Dekan, on the other hand, remained in the central temple to carry out a project.

I had only just stopped working to detect the reaction of the temple's spatial gate using the dial Mier gave me, so I could entertain the Chaos God who had come home tired.

I'll also chat with this Chaos God.

"I've noticed something: you all come out through this portal after you return, right?"

Dekan seemed to have grown tired of the Word God Apertos, and asked without even looking at him.

"...?"

Upon hearing Dekan's inexplicable question, the Word Spirit God felt a conditioned reflex of tremor in his heart.

Although he couldn't understand what Dekan was trying to do by mentioning this, the panic in his heart told him that Dekan was about to do something extremely bad.

Logically speaking, no living beings should have arrived here last time.

Therefore, no living being would witness the return of the Chaos God when the Battlefield of Annihilation of Heaven opens.

But this seemingly useless piece of information might have a completely different meaning in the hands of this guy!

"What, what exactly do you want to do?!"

"..."

At this point, Dekan was quite satisfied with the Word Spirit God's reaction.

It's fine to tell the answer to the Word Spirit God.

"I have decided not to destroy the core of the [Battlefield of Heavenly Annihilation]."

Dekan sat on the temple altar with his arms crossed, smiling as he looked at the portal.

"I'm going to connect your portals to my space portal, and the destination is a very beautiful flower field."

405 The Cycle of Feuds Between the Holy Kingdom and the Demon Realm

The light above the Demon King's Tomb swirled and shifted.

A portal opened a crack in the vast, canvas-like flower field, and Dekan and Chloeux walked out, talking as they went.
