As God Tomquer gathered his direct disciples and ascended races, other Trickster Gods did the same and headed toward the hidden location of the second. The second trickster god was a woman, but her mysteriousness was deep, but not on the same level like the first and original trickster god!
Thus, many people in the heavens called her just The Second Trickster God!
While the seventh could roam through the divine lands with ease, his ascended races stood in front of many problems as the lands up in heaven were much different compared to ones from world pillars and the worlds.
It also depended on the gods' strength and status, but most Trickster Gods were on the lowest point of the heavens. The lands here were always changing. On one step, one could feel the pressure of immense coldness and snow stopping their paths. On another, one could feel the stinging hotness could break their nerves.
And on another, one also could see the stars and lands just turning into an immense universe as if whole soil got swallowed up by the universe that held those lands!
God Tomquer wasn't a man who would lose to this and with the wrath boiling within his body, his steps even destroyed pieces of lands one by one as he ran forward. His people tried to follow his steps directly, but only the direct disciples were strong enough to do so.
Soon enough, another group could be seen on the horizon with his divine eyes.
This group had the divine beam at the helm with a unique green color that Trickster God recognized on the spot.
"Eighth! You fucker-"
"Seventh! I fucking saw that you entered my divine lands, you motherfucker!"
"Didn't you do the same?! Fuck!"
The divine beams clashed into each other with their shouts reaching every living being in around them! The clash was not dangerous at all and more like banter between the two gods. Their hands clenched each other's clothes, but the eighth trickster god spotted tremendous change!
"Your equipment got… burned?"
"This bitch went mad on me and used her reserves."
"So both sides got losses. But why would they fucking attack us? That justice shit spoke something about the world pillar and black court."
"Yeah, I heard about it too. Not like I know the meaning of this."
The gods spoke with their foreheads pressing into each other. They truly looked like gods arguing in a rather childish way, but both armies were far from laughing. They knew that this banter might turn into a life-threatening battle at any point.
However, the situation was really strange and the seventh just lost someone precious, so the eighth's army was believing in the 'battle' more than the other army.
This luckily hasn't happened at all and both gods ventured to the hidden spot.
"Bitch has many divine lands. The one we are going to should be one of her firsts as she probably entered the second layer already."
"I will make her give me some of her fucking lands."
The hidden land of the second was indeed perfectly hidden with all trickster god's concepts. This land was changing and so it looked like it was inhabited by noone yet beneath its changing ground was hidden a small basement.
This basement was already occupied by other Trickster Gods.
In a nutshell, there were five of those.
"Seventh? What's up with such a face? Loss of equipment is this hard for you?"
A lady asked this time, her title the fifth. She teased the seventh as if she knew what happened in his ranks and the exact reason for his wrath plastered on his face. She indeed managed to bring out from him just with a few more words.
"I lost my first ascended race."
"Oh, what a pity. I won't comment any more then."
She did the complete opposite of what she said. Instead of giving some time for the seventh and allowing him to wait for the second in a silence after his loss, the fifth trickster goddess just continued to annoy him.
Her words could slice through his heart as all of them knew what the first ascended race meant for God Tomquer.
It was also funny for the fifth.
"Didn't you cry out of joy when you got your first ascended race? You were so happy back then. Completely unlike you, Tomquer. I hope her soul will reincarnate in the low world pillar. Ah, maybe that's where her place should be?"
"Close your mouth already, whore."
"Heeee~~ I think I hit the truth! This means she will be more happy in her little world! Cheer up, seventh!"
Only the eighth showed some reaction to these two bickering as he was one of the newest gods and the joy of his first ascended race… was still etched in his heart. It was hard to become god and it was harder to find one's path.
Sometimes, even the gods failed to provide enough help and one just continued to step on the impossible while believing that they just hit their limit.
The birth of the ascended race was tremendous help. Such race was born out of the belief, so the chances of any betrayal and schemes were pretty nonexistent.
The gods also could rely on them thoroughly without any tricks or schemes as the ascended race grew with their gods. Their growth depended on them and they wished for this from the bottom of their hearts!
One could get a trustful companion and though every god reacted differently to this ascended race, the gods that were ranked last often got some weak spots to their first ascended races.
In the seventh's case, his first ascended race treated him like a father despite all the belief accumulated in her body from the birth. And so he… partially changed due to his first ascended race.
"Ahh, that's a tragedy right here~~"
"Woman. If you feel like having me on your tail for eternity, then continue to spit shit with this dirty whorish mouth."
"..."
"Enough of this talk."
The fourth trickster god chimed in after the fifth goddess got silenced by the seventh's threat. He knew that even the fifth wouldn't like to have the counterpart on her tail for eternity despite all the ranks difference.
It would be annoying and problematic and they know very well how their divinities worked! Thus, he spoke up about the black castle and the court.
"Has anyone of you stepped into this world pillar?"
