504 I've resigned
Moros naturally wished to promote witchcraft and restore the former glory of the Shaman religion. However, he was uncertain about William's stance on this matter. While William allowed his soul's incarnation to spread witchcraft, it was unclear if he would permit Moros himself to descend to the Prime World.
"You coming down from the Divine Realm to recruit disciples is not a problem," said William as he stood up and let Erebus take his place. "But wherever you are, there should be some rules."
"Anyone returning to the Prime World, regardless of their identity or race, should abide by the local laws," William continued. "It would be best if they register upon arrival and live in a designated area. Of course, if they don't wish to, consider it unsaid."
Currently, only beings of the Nature Deity level and above could directly traverse from the Divine Realm to the Prime World, and their power was sufficient to disrupt the world's balance.
William had this idea, but he also wondered if he was being too intrusive. Dictating rules based on his likes and dislikes wasn't really his role. For now, it was more like suggesting an opinion.
It would be best if the elites of the Divine Realm discussed and decided among themselves, perhaps in a meeting.
Moros nodded in agreement. "I think that's a good idea!"
It was a joke to consider William's suggestion as just an opinion. It was more like a leader proposing a decision at a meeting, even if phrased as a question. New novel chapters are published at novelhall.com
Could Moros dare to disagree?
"Let's talk about it later," said William. "Is there anything else?"
Moros shook his head. "I just came to ask. If it's possible, I'll bring other deities of witchcraft over."
"Suit yourself, but you're responsible for anyone you bring," replied William, not really inclined to prevent others from coming.
Having spent a considerable time with William, Moros knew he wasn't the type to meddle in others' affairs. As long as the deities of witchcraft didn't actively seek their demise, they wouldn't face death.
After bidding farewell to William, Luna and Erebus stared at him blankly.
"Mr. Johnson, has the Divine Realm descended?"
Indeed, Luna and Erebus were quite powerful, but they had been so engrossed in their fun and games lately that they were unaware of the Divine Realm's descent.
"Yes, it has. Is there something you need?"
Luna and Erebus both shook their heads.
Recently, they had almost forgotten what they had come to the Prime World for...
Weren't they supposed to resurrect their father deity?
What had they been doing all this time?
Initially, they were keen on enhancing their own powers, but now, their days revolved around chips, cola, and video games...
A Shapeshifter lord who attempted to attack Lucien was killed on the spot by Moros.
When William saw Lucien again, he noticed that the power within him had grown significantly stronger.
It's known that killing a "Chosen One" can bring about retaliation from dark forces, so the Shapeshifter lords would surely pay a corresponding price after killing a "Chosen One."
Of course, it's not ruled out that they might gain some benefits from it.
These matters were no longer of concern to William.
"Mr. Johnson, I have brought the other eleven deities of witchcraft with me." Moros didn't bring the deities of witchcraft directly to William, but instead spoke to him first, "Do you want to meet them, or is there anything you would like to instruct them?"
William, staying in his villa, glanced at Moros and said, "Just make sure they don't harm ordinary people."
He had already let Luna and others kill, so he couldn't really control the deities of witchcraft as well.
Moros laughed, "Mr. Johnson is joking, right? We've come to promote witchcraft, how could we possibly harm ordinary people?"
William nodded, "Alright, then you can leave if there's nothing else."
Moros looked a bit complicated and said, "Then, Mr. Johnson, you must already know about the Shapeshifter lords going around killing people."
William nodded, "What does that have to do with me? I've resigned."
"Resigned?" Moros was puzzled. William used to handle such matters, it couldn't just be because he was an employee of the 13th Bureau, right?
"Yes, resigned. So, if there's nothing important, don't bother me!" William said coldly, "Some of your deities of witchcraft look quite appetizing."
Moros was stunned.
It was like going back tens of thousands of years.
Looking appetizing wasn't exactly a good thing.
Moros then asked, "Then, can we act against those Shapeshifter lords? To protect humans?"
"Whatever you want!" William knew what Moros was thinking.
To promote witchcraft and make people accept Shamanism, they had to do something that seemed beneficial to humans. Regardless of their motives, the Shapeshifter lords attacking humans, and their actions, could be considered a balance.
William had anticipated this, which was why he resigned from the 13th Bureau.
Balance, after all, always exists.
