318 Chapter 318 (1/2)

”Samael has so many followers and his power is rising at an incredible speed… What about you Demos? Why don't you create some sort of cult and have people worship you as a god?” Cyrus spoke up after pondering on the issue for a while.

”Because it's against the laws for guardian spirits to gather followers or portray itself as a god… Doing something of such is a crime since the creator believes it's the only one worth that needs to be worshiped” Demos answered with a bitter smile.

At this point, they realized why Samael left. Not only is the creator a leech feeding off from the resources meant to be used to create new gods, but it also feeding off the hard work of its followers, trying to gain more power without any form of compensation.

”It's settled... I am gonna kill it” Derik snarled making the rest laugh heartily at his stupid words but nonetheless they were still happy he had the guts to say it.

”Lest I forget… How did you know about our current location, our achievements, our sects back in the empire, and our followers? its been about two decades since the last time we met, I didn't expect you to know so much ” Cyrus raised an eyebrow as he spoke.

In response, Samael's face turned red and he shot Demos a glance. His lips parted but no words escaped his mouth, he could only look away and pretend as if he didn't hear the question. But Demos was already prepared for this and decided to answer in his place.

”Even if he is no longer officially recognized as a guardian spirit by the creator, this world still recognizes him as one and he still retains the unique abilities if all other guardian spirits…. He has been watching you all for a while now and even now, he's preparing the forces of the holy church to invade the Aldemar continent, I have been the one delaying his plans… and the birdmen clan which attacked you earlier was sent by him… he chose to finish you all off with those magic beasts while you are still weak” Demos answered gladly.

”Bastard!” Samael stroked his golden hair while he cursed. At this moment, he began regretting not battling Demos to the death earlier, maybe this could have been avoided.

”Hehehe… Nice one… Since we were enemies up till this moment… it doesn't count” Derik chuckled.

”Yea… I probably would have done the same or even worse… So it doesn't really matter, as long as you call off the attack on the continent” Cyrus added.

”Hello? Don't you think we have wasted too much time here?” Kaido's voice suddenly caught their attention.
