Chapter 222: Goddess Of Light Revelations

......

"You come to a woman's home without calling in first, and then you intrude into her bedroom as if it were the only natural thing to do." The Goddess of Light lightly giggled while holding a dainty hand up to her mouth, an action that subsequently caused her milky white breasts to jiggle a little.

"..."

Azmodeus looked at the dangerous woman before him, as he knew from experience that any woman with 'assets' that big would definitely turn out to be bad news.

"Ho~?" The Goddess of Light stopped the creasing of her crossed eyes as her expression morphed into one of amusement. "I don't bite, you know?"

*Pat Pat*

She softly patted the area of the bed right next to her, clearly inviting the Crimson Emperor over to her side.

"You wish to know more about your connection to this world, do you not?" She questioned with an amused glint in her sparkling eyes.

Azmodeus was originally apprehensive about getting any closer to the woman, but with the next words to come out of her mouth, he immediately found his way to her side.

"Ho~ you truly are an interesting one, Azmodeus~"

The Goddess of Light's naturally seductive voice dripped into his ears, as it was only then that he fully understood how dangerous this woman was.

But regardless of his cautious nature, he wanted to understand what exactly it was that she was talking about earlier...

She is stronger than me, and I don't wish to wait thousands of years to beat her before extracting her memories by force...

At times, he was an impatient person, and right now just so happened to be one of those times.

Therefore, he locked eyes with the divinely beautiful goddess and asked, "Why?"

His aura violently fluctuated as the boundlessly expansive palace was nearly overwhelmed!

The Goddess of Light calmed the nerves that were quite active as of late. Then, she said, "You don't have to be so nervous all the time, you know? It's not like I'm your enemy..."

"You're not my enemy...? The heroes you sent surely beg to differ," Azmodeus replied with a reminiscent gleam in his blood-colored eyes, vividly recalling the hero loot bags that came after him for thousands of years.

Someone had clearly been leaking his location to the various heroes, including the Grand Elders who recently rebelled. And the prime suspect in this leakage was none other than the Goddess of Light-

"You're wrong," she interjected, her tone holding various underlying meanings. "I sent them after you to help you grow, just as that mysterious force is doing. And although I don't have any idea who this 'mysterious force' is, I know for certain that strong enemies will only help you become stronger. And what better way to assist your growth than with countless heroes on the chopping board?"

"..." So she isn't the one who gave me my system.

Azmodeus figured that was the case, but he still had to hear it for himself, and with the recent words spoken by the Goddess of Light, his suspicions were confirmed.

However, there was one point of concern brought up by this topic.

That point being...

"Why would you do such a thing? To summon heroes from Planet Earth, only to send them out to their deaths. Why did you do it?"

"That's a good question... Why did I do such a thing...?"

The Goddess of Light attempted to recall the reason she went through so much trouble, but she just couldn't remember...

However, as if her confusion was all just an illusion, her eyes unfogged and she said, "I did it for the future—for the future of us all."

Azmodeus wasn't able to notice the unusual phenomenon occurring within her gaze. He asked, "For the future? The Astral Plane's future?"

"Yes... the future of the Astral Plane—a Second Layered Plane of Infinity lorded over by the 'True 10 Astral Prince's' and their dogs—the 7 Guardian Beasts—one of whom you've already killed," the Goddess of Light responded with a complicated tone, her eyes flickering slightly as she looked through the confines of her palace, catching sight of six surging auras emanating in the distance.
