Chapter 1536 World Of Divine

?"Your Master Asha betrayed you. She sold you for a better career prospect."

In a garden of vibrant flowers, Varian, Isadora, Sarah and Miss Calamity in a circle on the lush green grass.

The man's words caused Isadora to bite her lip and lowering her head. "I don't have a deep bond with her. But she gave me her avatar. It saved my life from Princess Eshala."

"Asha must've been under pressure since she couldn't advance to rank 2." Miss Calamity said.

Varian scoffed. "A rank is really that important, huh."

Aurora nodded with a stern expression, shooting all of them a glare, especially Varian. "For the normal person, it is not just important, it is everything.

For the next step within a sub-rank, centuries old friendships were broken.

To reach the next sub-rank, entire races were slaughtered.

For the next rank? Heh, all bottom lines were broken.

Beneath this facade of divinity, there is only ugliness of greed. Even the vilest of criminals would pale in front of what the divine beings do. They are not the gods they think themselves to be, they are the demons, spawns of hell and agents of evil.

If the divine rankers just disappeared today, half of all deaths would end. The divine are gods only in appearance, if you look below that light of holiness, there would be so many corpses that they could drown entire stars."

Varian shifted in his seat, contemplating those harsh words. It wasn't meant to be a jab but he didn't consider himself a person with bottomline either. He could go to great lengths for the things he valued. And nothing could stop him.

He discarded the notion of morality long ago. He didn't advocate for evil. But when necessary, he wouldn't hesitate to become the fiercest demon.

The pain he inflicted on Icarus? The torture he put people whose names he didn't even bother to recall?

It was an evil act.

The good people would say that he had no necessity to torture people when he could kill them swiftly and end the enmity.

But no. The answer was always no.

Death was too easy for some people. They had to taste the pain that a demon could inflict. And then, they must feel the regret of their own choices. That regret should then consume them and then, only then would give them that final sleep.

Master Asha, regardless of the reasons, had fallen into the category of his enemies. Since she saved Isadora once, he decided not to put the woman through any pain.

Despite all the help she'd given them, the princess was cold blooded enough to kill Aurora if she turned out to be hostile.

"Ah that," Aurora giggled. "If I was normal, perhaps I would have. Don't worry. "

"Hm?"

"I'll just disappear one day. It doesn't matter what happens before that. So, I don't need to be greedy. You don't have to be wary against me. I think it's fun to hang around with you all."

Her words were cryptic but the soul powers of both Sarah and Isadora recognized no falsehood.

"Life should be enjoyed." Miss Calamity raised her arms. "Do you want to go surfing in blackholes?"

"Anyway," Varian ignored her and continued. "Immortal's design itself dictates that he must merge with the perfect hybrid to reach his ultimate state. Once you cross a threshold of power, he can always sense you. It's instinctive, like a fish knowing to swim."

Isadora tilted her head. "Even to Hortus?"

"Might or might not." There was uncertainty in his voice. "He is born from the power of slivers. I am afraid it's erroneous to judge him with normal standards. So, what's the plan for him?"

There was a short silence in the garden before Sarah raised her hand and made a gesture with her thumb moving over the neck. "How about I just kill him?"

Varian tapped his thigh. "Immortal is a very...prideful man, if I must say so. He would rather kill himself than die under another's hands.

So far, he's trying to get Isadora on his own instead of calling the help of a divine ranker. He's the child of slivers. No matter how much of neglected he is, he must have divine rankers willing to help him.

He did not call any. Not even when Icarus started attacking. His pride wouldn't allow it. But if a divine ranker attacks, he can justify putting aside that pride.

Once we step into that territory, our new divine rankers will have to face veterans. Even a mid rank 1 is very difficult for the three of you. And he might call a high rank 1. Or a peak rank 1."

"You want to fight him alone?" Isadora clasped her hands. "He might still call the divine rankers."

"Might. But if you go, he definitely will." Varian shook his head. "He still doesn't know Isadora reached the divine rank. If he does, he might give up any hesitation and call for help.

The only way out I see is using myself as the bait. If his pride is as strong as I thought it is, he'd capture me himself to draw Iasdora out."

"Then how will you make yourself a bait?"

Varian smiled. "Isn't there a war going on?"
