Similar scenes were happening throughout the universe. All those who received the divine message had the same goal in mind.
They all wanted Ileus to die by their own hands.
But there was one thing every single one of them knew deep within: none of this would be easy.
Meanwhile, the Nine Supreme Gods also received the message. But unlike the others, they knew they couldn't fulfill it.
Why?
Because of the Master-Servant link that still existed between their souls and Ileus's.
One of the conditions of that link was brutal—any servant who harbored evil thoughts that could potentially lead to their master's death would suffer unimaginable mental torture.
In a semi-dark space, a crescent moon hung in the sky—faint and ghostly.
The surrounding area wasn't pitch black, but visibility was still poor. Shadows stretched across the uneven ground, and though not fully concealed, the landscape retained a haunting atmosphere.
Nine silhouettes stood still.
