GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 844 Strength And Unity.

The snake demon king's attention returned to the upcoming fighting. He licked his lips on his protruded jaws. He said in anticipation, "They are all strong. It is good that they are strong."

Then he asked Aeternus, "Your information is accurate right?"

Aeternus replied, "Yes, it is. Nothing has changed."

The succubus queen wasn't so optimistic about their chances. "I prefer it if they are weaker. I won't mind their number then. But each one is so strong and there are so many of them. They are also united too. This is going to be difficult."

"Just stick to the plan," Aeternus said.

All the 10 Celestials used elemental domains to become Celestials thereby stopping others from becoming Celestials. This is because Elemental domains are the most valuable domains. The other types are not appreciated in the plane. This reduced the number of Celestials in the plane but it also enabled them to monopolies the Celestial domains to just 10 of them.

Instead of fighting each other, they decided to divide up and absorb the other Celestial domains first. The 10 of them worked together to prevent other Celestials from forming in the other domains while they grew stronger. They monopolized all the power in the divine plane to just the 10 of them.

The Celestial of fire absorbed the domains of the forge and volcanoes. The Celestial of light absorbed the domains of healing, Justice, and order. The Celestial of water absorbed beauty and love, sex and fertility, oceans and seas. The Celestial of Earth absorbed the domains of strength and power, Oaths, and peace. The Celestial of darkness absorbed the domain of Night, Death, and the Underworld.

Each Celestial is at least level 4. They are all stronger than Zernon. It is what Unity on a large scale creates. Sure there is competition and the occasional war but it has only made them stronger for it. Order when balanced and tempered with Chaos creates the best outcome.

Aeternus warned them, "Everything has been arranged. This plane is very rich so we will get a lot of loot if we win. Their believers are very strong so they offer their gods a lot of wealth as sacrifice. But they won't be able to interfere. We just stick to the divine plane according to the plan and everything will be ok."

The succubus queen said to him, "Don't worry. We will show these pompous Celestials that numbers are not everything. We will show them the terror of demon kings."

The plane is also bountiful and fertile despite the fact that they are always warring against each other. They fight but the fight only makes them stronger. The boost to the elemental affinity of the believers makes it so that they have a lot of strong cultivators and enables the plane to produce these stronger cultivators very fast. In fact, this plane is so successful that they have a lot of world gods.

The plane has produced a lot of Origin gods and world gods but they didn't try to get rid of their gods because they are actually useful to them. The tree father has been having a lot of problems because of the strength of the inhabitants. A lot of them want to kill it.

That's why Aeternus doesn't plan to attack the mortal plane. His aim is more realistic than that and to achieve that aim, he needs to have other demon kings with him. They had and still have reservations about attacking such a powerful plane. But the incentive of all the wealth that the gods must have due to the prosperity of the path of divinity in the plane is too much for them to pass over.

The demon kings he has with him are not weak. They are both level 5 demon kings. Both of them are also demon kings of the abyss. There are no demon kings of demons or demon kings of kings for wrath and lust anymore because of the existence of the demon gods of lust and wrath. The advantage of being demon kings of the abyss is that once they become demon kings, they will never be removed from it.

The disadvantage of being a demon king of the abyss is that they won't be able to progress to demon god but its perks make it a worthwhile decision sometimes. In this situation, the perks ensure that they will always be able to attack this plane until they are too weak to be a threat.

They are immortal as long as they remain demon kings and as long as the abyss exists so they can only be temporarily banished to the abyss. They will sacrifice some Authority to resurrect but they will always be able to return to fight again.

"Let's get ready to fight." He said to them.

The succubus queen giggled as she pulled out a whip. "You seem to be in a hurry too. I like fast and hard sometimes but I always prefer slow and steady. Don't you think so?" She asked Aeternus.

He ignored her. The snake demon gave a feral grin as it swung its curved blades eagerly.

"Let me have at them." It said as it grinned.

It is bubbling in excitement. It has already forgotten about its little spat with the demoness earlier. All it wants right now is to have at the gods. Its wish will be fulfilled soon. They all prepared themselves for the upcoming battle.

They also shrunk their body size down to a couple of meters from the 10 kilometers that were. Size isn't all that matters in a fight of their caliber. In fact, size doesn't matter at all. In this case, size will be against them. They can maintain their strength no matter their size. Whereas being big will make them an easier target to hit. So they reduced their size.

There are only three of them but they are not afraid of the upcoming battle despite being outnumbered. The war between demons and gods is not a war that can be ended with a single battle. It is a slow grind that wears down both side until one of them breaks down and capitulate.
