Hades held a high position within the Divine Realm, but in front of William, he could only regard himself as a child.
He had once received guidance from William, which allowed him to gain powerful strength.
But tens of thousands of years ago, William destroyed the world of the gods, sparing neither deity nor demon.
It was only in that moment that everyone realized just how terrifying the strength of William the Obliterator was.
Even the mightiest god-kings were but ants before him.
"What's going on in the Divine Realm?" William inquired, "What's this about you releasing so many demons to possess the bodies of mortals?"
Faced with William's question, Hades was almost scared enough to descend to Earth and kneel before him.
"Mr. Johnson, the god-kings from all four corners of the Divine Realm are besieging me, and I have no hope left but to let my minions descend to Earth," Hades said weakly. "I've heard that the Earth's energy is quite abundant now..."
"Oh," William pondered for a moment and then said, "Many of your minions have been eradicated by me."
There was silence from Hades before he nervously asked, "Mr. Johnson, those minions were ignorant. The Master's discipline is right, and they deserved their fate."
If someone else had killed his minions, as the King of the Underworld, he would certainly seek a blood debt.
But this person was William!
He even feared that William, if displeased, might obliterate their entire Divine Realm.

I don't want to get involved in the affairs of the Divine Realm, but tell those gods and demons who wish to descend to Earth that they must all report to the 13th Bureau, obeying the laws and regulations of the mortal world," William said to Hades. Though they had an old acquaintance, he did not intend to help Hades.
Every place has its rules for survival, the competition in the Divine Realm is cruel and intense, survival of the fittest, with the weak meeting only death. He could not possibly take a stand for Hades.
A King of the Underworld, as long as he doesn't encounter a freak like William, should be able to protect himself.
"Definitely!! I will spread your decree throughout the entire Divine Realm!" Hades did not dare to delay, as William's word was the supreme decree,once it was passed on, even god-kings would not dare to disobey.
Hades now even had the delusion of having found a lifeline.
Being besieged by the other four god-kings had already made him extremely anxious. Although not suppressed, his underworld fighters were attacked wherever they went, making life unbearable.
And now, suddenly, he had William's decree.
Wow!
That changes everything!
The name William the Obliterator is considered taboo within the Divine Realm, not even the god-kings would mention it carelessly.
But if he were to convey a decree to the other four god-kings, it would certainly make them wary; the key is how he phrases it.
As long as those guys believe that he has a substantial relationship with Mr. Johnson, the crisis could be easily resolved.
I believe no one would want to offend such a taboo existence.
William, however, didn't care about his thoughts, and said indifferently, "Let it be so." After that, he severed the connection with the magic circle.
"Modern technology is great, after all." William couldn't help but prefer the modern way of life.
A small cellphone can make video calls, unlike them, who have to use a sacred treasure and a magic circle, and then can only make voice calls. It's terribly weak in comparison.
William put away the Radiant Empress Pearl and disappeared into the darkness.
After he left, the illusion naturally dissipated, and the soldiers outside the town only discovered that the town had suddenly changed.
One moment the town was fine, and then suddenly it was in shambles, not a soul to be seen in the town, full of holes and trenches as if it had been through a century-long war.
Steven, Zoey, and their group arrived at the town grandly, followed by a large force. Various new weapons designed to target Soulmancers were also brought along, but upon arrival, everyone fell silent.
After a while.
Steven narrowed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said, "A great battle took place here."
Zoey nodded solemnly and added, "It shows."
"Who could it have been? Could someone have battled with the strength of thousands of demigods?" Steven was utterly puzzled, "And where did all those people go?"
Zoey scanned the surroundings and said, "Whoever it was, they were very powerful."
Wes also noted, "Many houses are gone."
"It's unclear whether this was done by those 'demigods' or that mysterious person," Steven murmured to himself with a twitch in his brow, "Could it be that someone from Mount Olympus has made a move?"
Zoey looked at Steven and asked, "Can a person from Mount Olympus take on a thousand 'demigods' by themselves?"
Steven's mouth twitched severely, and he found himself at a loss for words.
Over a thousand 'demigods'!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWho could possibly take them head-on?
Even for that super-strong entity on Mount Olympus, managing to face off against ten demigods at once would be quite impressive.
But over a thousand 'demigods'!!
Steven simply couldn't fathom who could be that ferocious.
Who from the Divine Realm isn't strong?
"However, whoever it was, they couldn't possibly have killed all those 'demigods', right? They must have changed locations after being threatened by you last time," Steven said with his hands behind his back, lost in thought.
According to Wes's report, Alice merely drew her sword and all the 'demigods' were intimidated.
Could this act have been Alice's doing?
And moreover, what kind of terrifying Sword Spirit could instantly intimidate so many 'demigods'?
All the clues, it seems, might still point to Alice.
"Moved locations?" Zoey looked around, and although she found no bodies or even a trace of blood, she still said, "I have a feeling all these 'demigods' are dead."
Steven and Wes both took a deep breath. How much time had passed?
With an army stationed outside the town, how could someone annihilate a thousand 'demigods' without anyone noticing?
"Regardless of whether they're dead or not, first lock down the town, and then stay alert for any demigod returning." Steven felt quite helpless, too. He was already retired, but with this kind of incident, Wes had no choice but to call on him, and it was indeed a bit tough to ask Zoey to handle such matters.
Most importantly, with so many major events happening recently, Steven wished to stay out of it all and just go home to play with his granddaughter or enjoy a game of chess, but that just wasn't possible.
The agents of the 13th Bureau were surrounding Maplewood Town, unaware that the instigator, William, had already returned to his own home, leisurely lying on a wingback chair watching a TV series.
He had been fond of the feeling of reading physical books, but now William was also making an effort to blend into the pace of modern life. A smartphone could handle all the trivial matters, and this convenient lifestyle was irresistibly attractive to him. While William was engrossed in a TV series about tomb raiding, Alice drove to his residence.
As soon as Alice entered the yard, she shouted emotionally, "Master, someone is trying to assassinate me."
"Hmm." William didn't even lift his head, still focused on the plot on the screen, and casually asked, "Do you have a Netflix subscription?"
