Chapter 374 373. T - 18 days.
Eshwar commented as he gazed at the sight of the shadowy creature ripping apart the whale that held grandiose name as the World Devourer. Since he or a part of his used to do the same a few years ago, looking at the similar scene from another perspective seemed disgusting and distasteful.
The notifications of Black Raven and White Swan hunting one of the Gods spread to everybody in an instant, while Seo Hana, who understood the significant level of strength difference between her and the being called God, felt helpless upon remembering that she swore to kill Eshwar, who was also a God.
And understood that if she wanted to kill him, she had prepare herself to fight both, Eshwar and Isha, at once because Isha wouldn't let Eshwar hurt, while the same applied even if it was the other way around.
Little did she know that as long as she grew stronger with the help of the system, she could never hurt even a strand on Eshwar's hair, let alone kill him. And Eshwar too was playing around instead of killing off the gods by commanding the system, his actions will soon make him understand the dire consequence of his carelessness.
Anyway,
The situation had taken a turn for the better now that there was somebody who could defeat the Gods, now, only seven more Gods remained.
After a few minutes, Isha and Eshwar flew out of the gate, after Isha devoured the World Devourer's core that was almost cracked, while Eshwar gave her all the divinity he traded with the whale, since the quantity or quality of the divinity he held head ceased to hold any meaning to him, he didn't even bat an eye as he gave an insane amount of divinity to his wife, who didn't hesitate to take something her husband gave.
Seo Hana and Frostine returned after Eshwar left with his wife, they went to the territory they had made an haven on, and soon felt something wrong with the gazes directed at them, that held contempt, disgust, hate, resentful, and many other emotions, though they didn't really understand what was going on, since the values of their lives were being determined by the achievements they made, it didn't really matter what they did as long as they became strong enough to take upon a significant role in the battle against the Gods.
*
A week passed, and two more Gods had been killed by the same pair that killed the first one.
24 more days remained until the Planet Antinoüs faced utter destruction.
It was also the day the rumour of the discord spreading in the haven Seo Hana, Katline, Grace, Neal, Reynolds, Hannah, Louie, Core, Arngrim, Frostine, Amanda, Gerry, Greg, Simon, Ash, Clifford, Dominic, and Belinda had banded together to create. And it also finally came to light that it wasn't only Seo Hana and Frostine who were receiving the weird gazes, everyone of the core members of the haven were under the same defiance dyed gazes.
Rumour merely stared that the core members had contact with the White Swan and the Black Raven, but they weren't inviting them to join their haven because they were afraid of there being another powerhouse beside them.
Then Frostine, who had pent up a lot of emotions she wasn't used to expressing busted out as she announced, acting purely on impulse that whoever has any problem with how they were doing things were free to leave the society-like guild hall they had created, and though her announcement culled the uproar that shouldn't have even existed at times where they should be busy getting stronger. The dissatisfaction of the survivors began to howl at the guild hall, as the core members controlled themselves and held back those that wanted to wipe out everyone of those insignificant bugs.
The discord continued to spread throughout the territory, then one day, one of the core members followed back a suspicious group that were gathering nearly at the end of the wide spread territory, instead of infiltrating alone, the core member, Katline, rushed back to the adventurers guild hall and informed the other core members that were focusing purely on getting stronger at Hana's and Frostine's words.
Since the were busy, dealing with matters that really mattered, they didn't care about the insignificant gathering of the rebels, as Core volunteered to help Katline to get rid of the bugs that were being an annoyance.
Upon finding and stalking the group for a few days, they attacked on the seventh day, when every rebel had gathered and when their numbers neared thousands among the merely millions of survivors.
Core and Katline slaughtered every single one of them without a shred of mercy or hesitation, after culling nearly everyone of those rebels that had gathered in a large enough underground facility, the members of the rebels got stronger as the lesser they numbered, ignoring the mental fatigue, the stock pile of the variety of potions they held in their inventories came into clutch, enabling them to hold on for days, before the other core members that were worried about their disappearance, joined them after following the obvious trails left behind.
Though concerned about the blooded states of Katline and Core, the rest of the core members fought against the rebels without a single rest, hoping to erase the rebels, but surprisingly, they gained experience points upon killing the people, also gaining titles called murderers in the process, but since it strengthened them, they cared for nothing and continued on with their culling, uncaring for the scars they themselves were accumulating amidst of the war that had started before they even knew it.
The more stronger they got, the more of their hesitation they lost, and after days of "hunting" down the rebels, they finally reached the ones behind them.
They were merely two men, whose identity startled nearly all of them.
They were none other than,
Vinny and Henry.
