Haru has returned to outer space near the Endless Continent after leaving the Void and the scene in front of him made him angry. He was barely gone for some time and he returned to see that his subordinates were facing off against the Evil Gods.
"You're finally back?!" A figure, exuding the aura of a peak High God, walked out to the front of the Evil Gods and said with a sneer.
"The Great Aetherium's King, your Angels have killed the Gods of our Evil Pantheon. How do you want to resolve this matter?"
Nearby, the millions of Gods from the various factions did not leave. They obviously wanted to see how this situation would unfold.
"It's Maddox!" Many Gods of Faith exclaimed when they saw who this God was and their expressions were full of horror because this Maddox was, alongside his sister, one of the 'Twin Lords of Death', the two leaders of the Death Pantheon. He was a peak High God, said to be one of the strongest below the Supreme God Tier.
As a branch of the Evil Pantheon, the Death Pantheon enjoyed Malakar and Skarion's protection. It was said that even without their protection, the Death Pantheon was already pretty strong on its own with the 'Twin Lords of Death', when combined, could compete for a short while against a newly promoted Supreme God.
"Hey, weren't he and his sister Micteya been trying to lay low? They even kept a low profile in the Ancient Era's Divine War!"
"It seems that they are unwilling to continue to hide now. Maddox probably wants to use the Great Aetherium as a stepping stone to advertise his Pantheon. The siblings obviously also want to obtain the God King's Throne."
Maddox ignored these conversations and looked at Haru with contempt. Yes, as a peak High God, he was qualified to look down on an average early-stage High God, but who would tell him that Haru commanded Celestia, Supreme Goddess strong enough to fight Malakar on equal terms?
"This feeling of not having to keep a low profile is really good!" Maddox muttered to himself. The siblings lied low during the Ancient Era because they were afraid of gaining too much clout and getting placed on the Demons' Special Assassination List.
But then again, one might ask why did they suddenly choose to suddenly stop hiding now? The answer was simple, because Micteya slaughtered dozens of powerful interstellar civilizations in the past thousands of years and managed to become a Supreme Goddess. With a sister like this, Maddox believed that he could afford to be a little arrogant.
Even Malakar and Skarion didn't know this yet. This was currently a secret only known to the Gods under their command since she got promoted in a distant galaxy. Her plan was to keep her strength as a hidden trump card to be revealed in the battle for the God King's Throne.
…
Although Maddox was a human, as a God, he could even be as tall as a Titan if he wished. At this time, he was tens of meters tall and looked at Haru with a downward gaze, "You must answer for Jason's death, otherwise a Divine Battle will be inevitable!"
Jason was the Evil God who was previously tied to the cross by the Angel and was burned to ashes. Although his Divine Body had vanished, his Godhead, soul and Divine Artifacts were collected by Mary.
Hearing Maddox, Haru smiled and before he could respond, Nora said coldly, "You heretic! Who allowed you to speak to the Lord in such a tone? Are you tired of living?"
"Hmm?" At first, Maddox was too stunned to speak because it took some time for him to process Nora's words and then he almost burst from anger.
Over the years, no one has ever called him by the title of 'heretic'. Of course he knew what the term meant. In the Ancient Era, when two Gods were enemies, their followers called each other 'heretics', but this was a mortal term. No God was called heretic. This is no longer just contempt, it was pure blasphemy!
"Damn it!" Maddox had an urge to fight and as he glared at her cold gaze, the aura of death emanating from him became even more intense, causing the surrounding space to get corroded. Even the Evil Gods near him backed away, afraid that this aura of death may corrode their Godheads or even turn them into Undead Gods.
"Young King, you have only been in the Endless Continent for a little more than a month. Is this your kingdom's attitude towards us Gods of Faith?"
Nora was about to speak, but seeing Haru wave his hand, she bowed and stepped back.
Haru said in a flat tone, "First of all, a mere High God like you can't represent all Gods of Faith. Even your Supreme God Malakar can't. Second, your Jason wanted to assassinate me while I was constructing my Divine Kingdom. That's enough reason for him to have died a million times."
"Finally, although I have only been in the Endless Continent for less than two months, we're not afraid of war. These people you see, they're my family. If you dare to even think about hurting me or my family…" Haru stared back ferociously at Maddox and said, "…then be prepared to die!"
