Chapter 399: Lightning assassination (I)

As they saw John Erick leaving in such a hurry, everybody wondered what those crystals contained. There was no need for the leaders to be present in the Gods' Tomb opening. They came hoping to get another meeting with Ivar the Flawless.

The hope in the hearts of the leaders and followers was to obtain a lucky chance, just like Gwyn and Roku when the Being of Laws first entered the Magi World.

Of course, they knew the possibility was almost null, but there was still a chance and a few days of waiting was nothing for entities like them, whose lifespan was measured in the thousands of years.

When Gabriel saw his father disappearing like that, leaving them in charge, he could not help but sigh and shook his head. He stared at his brother, and after some thinking, he spoke.

"Dean, you will be the Scientia Kingdom's representative since you are the Crown Prince. You will greet and offer our respects to Lord Ivar when he appears, but in case we discuss the second phase of the war, I will take charge." 

An annoyed expression appeared on the First Prince's face when he heard Gabriel's instruction, but it was not his brother's commands that bothered him. The reason for his anger was that he loathed this type of task.

Dean Rebellion enjoyed fighting and spent most of his time in fiend planes or dark worlds, butchering monsters and other evil entities. 

Unfortunately for him, the Crown Prince's title carried responsibilities outside the battlefield. Dean had done everything he could to hand the title over to his brother, but since he was the oldest and strongest, he was bound to it. 

Unlike mortal kingdoms where brothers plot and kill each other for the Crown Prince's title, none of the princes and princesses of the Scientia Kingdom wanted it.

Their father and mother always taught them to seek immortality and not settle for anything less. Being the leaders of the Magi World's oldest organization was not alluring for them.

In the end, boredom and defeat appeared in Dean's face as he sighed and nodded to Gabriel. The next moment, he focused on the young man in front of him, and a peculiar light appeared in his eyes. 

"We have not properly introduced ourselves. I am Dean Rebellion." Dean smiled and extended his hand.

Ezequiel shook hands with the First Prince. When he attempted to move his hand away, Dean did not let go and began to exert strength. 

When the Supreme Neo-Demon saw this, he did not back down and fought back.

The people around them were surprised, but their interest died down the moment they noticed how they were both smiling and that the First Prince sealed the strength of his soul and energy, leaving only his physical might.

The duo stopped after ten seconds. Ezequiel's hand had almost broken, while the First Prince only had finger marks on his.

The Supreme Neo-Demon's wound healed instantly due to the dark energy Dean had left in him when their hands separated.

'I used all my strength, and yet he surpassed me easily. This man can depend on his physical might to battle Soul Law Domain existences.' Ezequiel was not bothered by the contest, especially since the other party showed no dark intentions.

"Hahaha, Father told me your body talent was the highest he had seen, and he was not exaggerating. If you have any questions about the battlefield in the void, you can ask me."

"Something tells me that you are not the one I have to talk to if I want accurate information."

The First Prince was startled for a second when he heard Ezequiel's words, and before he could say anything, he heard someone laughing. 

He saw his brother chuckling, and he just sneered at the duo before looking away. 

Gabriel did not keep making fun of his brother. He focused on Ezequiel before they both stared at the distant supernovas. 

"Please tell, what you know about what is happening there."

"Master gave some information. Lord Ivar's goal is to connect the Transitional Plane to the Crystal Wall of the Magi World and the Divine World.

The Gods' Tomb will obtain a Crystal Wall capable of resisting Rank 9 battle power if everything goes according to the plan. After that, we need to control the continents and let the Magi World's laws and forces invade it to weaken the Divinity World. 

Gods are hard to kill when they are inside their Divine Kingdoms, but their battle power diminishes once they leave them. They are cowards and would not risk their lives, so they sent Divine Avatars to fight in their place.

Although those avatars can only express a fraction of the Gods' power, losing them doesn't directly harm them. 

Battling Divine Avatars is dangerous since they fight without care about injuries and can self-destruct at any second. 

The Divinity World has three Greater Gods. The God of Justice, Tyr, the God of Sin, Satan, and the Overgod.

According to Master, Tyr and Satan can form multiple Divine Avatars with Pseudo-Rank 9 battle power. The Overgod cannot have more than one Divine Avatar, but the power of this one reaches Rank 9.

Gods' Tomb's success will depend on whether Lord Ivar can maintain Tyr and Satan's Divine Avatars at bay. As for the Overgod, Master told me the one handling him would probably be the Magi World's leader."

Dean and Gabriel were surprised when they heard all that information. Knowing what happened on the battlefield was one thing, but grasping the Greater Gods' power was completely different. 

"Lord Zatiel's knowledge is truly boundless," Gabriel spoke with admiration and respect, and Dean nodded with a serious expression.

"According to Father, Lord Ivar is a Beyond Redemption Stage powerhouse, but he can express Rank 9 battle power thanks to his laws and artifacts. The only way the Greater Gods could face him is that if they leave their Divine Kingdom, and that is highly unlikely."

This time it was Ezequiel's turn to be surprised. He knew that displaying battle power above your cultivation was more challenging the higher the Rank was. After all, anyone who became a Rank 8 life form was a talent born once every few hundreds of millions of years.

After sharing information, the trio focused on the distant battlefield in the void.

As the second day was ending, a moment of silence occurred when the battlefield's explosions stopped. The next second, a supernova hundred times mightier than the previous ones appeared.

The blast unleashed a wave of light and energy that instantly reached the Magi World. Everybody near the Crystal Wall felt their eyes burning and were temporarily blinded.

When that happened, white lightning covered Ezequiel's body, and he flashed toward the Frost Monster Heart's group.

The Supreme Neo-Demon's behavior surprised everybody. A tactical agreement occurred between the different organizations when they reach this place.

Despite that, they felt Ezequiel's killing intent, and everybody was clear about his intentions.

He acted with such viciousness and resolution that by the time they were able to react, the Supreme Neo-Demon was already in front of the man with animal tattoos.
