Chapter 1790 The Wary Gods of Light
News about gods of light dying to an unknown evil demonic god started to spread as there were some players mixed with the angels that Adrian killed. Adrian expected that he might at least clean up until eight gods of light before news broke but the players are indeed the greatest variable. Unlike NPC souls, the souls of players are given more freedom which is why Adrian cannot interfere with it unless he is in the afterlife.
The remaining gods of light started to pair up and bring more angels to accompany them which made it difficult for Adrian to hunt them. This is not all bad as the conquest of the angels slowed down by half as they needed to focus more resources in one area than spread out more. Adrian's activities also alerted the remaining six angelic leaders.
Adrian had to hide in pocket dimensions and wait for night to come because one of the six angelic leaders was using their gift to see in all areas touched by light. Adrian did not know how long that angel can do such a thing, but he needed to be discreet in order to be successful in assassinating all the gods of light. Using 'Universal Threat' was his perfect way of killing all the gods of light that he encountered before since even they cannot detect it.

Some demigods were wary of him while some thanked him for his help, but he did not reply to them. One of the rules of his current form is that he should not interact with any innocent mortal as his very form is death incarnate. Even demigods might get transported directly to the underworld if they touch him which is why he left as soon as he killed the targets.

"This cannot go on! We are cowering like scared animals!" The God Magec stated as the god was covered with gold and silver armor which made their gender unknown as their voice is also not low or high.
"We had a deal to split the kingdoms once we rule the entire central continent. The Aesir have assisted you in this struggle so all of you must keep your end of the bargain." The God Baldr stated as he is also a god of light, but his affiliation is with the Aesir instead of the Goddess Luminaria.
"You are also like us! You are just lucky that your father has a tacit understanding with the Goddess Luminaria or else you will also be under her heel!" The Goddess Prende stated as the God Baldr was acting like he was above them when he has a backer on par with the Goddess of Light Luminaria.
"If you are that irritated then why not send your armies to this realm. With the Asgardian army, we will be able to conquer the entire central continent within the day." The God Magec stated.
"The God Odin is currently sleeping as he has used his power to create a copy of Gungnir to help your servants pierce the world barrier. Do you think that doing that will not have consequences? Can you honestly answer that the Goddess Luminaria will be fine if she creates a copy of her Dawn Scepter?" The God Baldr stated.
The gods of light under the Goddess Luminaria knew that even she will fall into a few months sleep to recover that energy. The Gods of Light expected that the Asgardian army would have been able to cross the dimension easily but there were some Daemos that interfered immediately. They were able to kill those Daemos, but the crack was fixed which made it unbearable for other than gods to cross the dimensional threshold.
In fact, one soldier from the Asgardian Army volunteered to cross the dimension but he was almost crushed by the force of the world barrier. Gods of Space are needed to cross the dimensional barrier safely or an assistance from a High God. The God Odin went to sleep due to the backlash of creating a copy of his divine spear while the God Heimdal that guards the Bifrost cannot use it due to sending that spear to the mortal realm.
The Bifrost was heavily damaged due to sending the copy of Gungnir to the Silver City. A few months or maybe a year would be needed to fix it. The only way to cross that dimensional barrier would be the aid of a Daemos or the sacrifice of a million souls. They cannot ask the Daemos for help because they killed some of them while the Gods of Death will be under their tails should they use the second option.
"What should we do then? The other gods of light are afraid to get killed as they did not return to their divine realms when killed! Even the Goddess of Light Luminaria is fuming but she is keeping it in as the expansion is proceeding." The Goddess Prende stated.
"What or who do you think is responsible for the deaths of the gods and the angels? Could it be the demigods or is it the Daemos?" The God Magec asked.
"The most likely would be the demigods as they are greedy beings that want to get our divine energy so that they can ascend to true divinity easier than gaining that divinity from scratch. The Daemos is still an option as there is the Champion of the Twin Gods in their camp." The Goddess Prende stated.
"It must be the demigods because the Champion of the Twin Gods is currently in Avalon fixing the dimensional rifts popping up due to the help of our other accomplices. My spies have told me that the Daemos are not dealing with us right now because they need the world to stabilize. We must rule at least half of the central continent before the Daemos moves! If we establish order before the Daemos could intervene then they will not be able to touch us. They make the world stable as is their job! It must be the demigods which is why kill any demigods that you encounter but make sure to still look out for other beings that want to kill the gods and the angels! Even Mikhail is fuming as the number of angels are declining." The God Baldr stated.
