As a mortal, Lette considers himself not to possess the power of a Demon God.

He is merely a passing Holy Light Knight.

But fortunately, through his last training in the mechanical world, he has gained some understanding of the Power of Profanation.

Additionally, he possesses four fully activated Keys of Truth, which not only provide ample Power of Profanation but can also autonomously generate and store a certain amount.

Just like the Divine aspect of the Profanity Monarch.

Before departing, Lette received from Lilith a new demon artifact created in the Netherworld: Malicious Injury.

This demon artifact not only has both ranged and melee attack capabilities but can also convert the Power of Profanation into Demon Power.

This function derives from the characteristics of Lilith's demonic form.

Originally, it was intended for her convenience.

But now, combined with the Key of Truth and Lette's application of the Power of Profanation.

Even as a mere mortal Holy Knight, he can use Demon Power freely in the Abyss, as if he were a Demon God.

In fact, with the support of the Divine Artifact and the demon artifact, he is even more proficient than a typical Demon God.

All of this underpins his confidence in coming to the Abyss to make the Rat Demon Clan his favored!

"Great Demon God, we are willing to offer everything, we only beg for your mercy, to spare our lives.

At least, please spare the lives of our clan's young ones.

Their souls are yet to awaken, their flesh is dispensable.

We beseech you, we beseech you!

We are willing to do anything for this!"

The old priest of the Rat man Clan kneeled on the ground, humbly burying his face in the dirt, trembling uncontrollably.

After the recent chaos, the Rat man Clan felt an unprecedented sense of oppression from Lette.

As prime cannon fodder in the Abyss, they have served too many masters in the past.

But no Demon God's aura could compare to Lette's, even though this Demon God seemed like a human on the outside.

The old priest knew that with their capabilities, escaping was out of the question.

A single thought from the Demon God could turn them to dust.

Staying put, facing his tragic life honestly might grant these higher beings a sliver of compassion.

At least allow the clan to leave behind some offspring.

Even faced with the plea of the entire clan, Lette felt a bit moved.

"To survive, are you willing to do anything for me?"

The old priest of the Rat man Clan trembled with excitement at these words, suppressing the wild joy within.

Fortunate, incredibly fortunate.

Who would have thought this Demon God wasn't planning to kill them all, and seemed to want to offer them a way out.

The old priest knew that this path would be fraught with difficulties, full of harsh conditions.

But if one could live, why not?

Questions as extravagant as why they live were never pondered by the Rat man Clan; they truly just wanted to be alive.

Even mere survival was enough!

"Yes, great Demon God, we are willing to do anything for you, as long as you grant us a way to survive."

"To survive, are you willing to dirty your hands?"

The old priest nodded without hesitation: "Yes, dirtying our hands is acceptable!"

"To survive, are you unafraid to soil your hearts?"

"Unafraid!"

Lette, with his hands behind his back, gazed at them and gently spoke.

"Since you are willing to do anything to survive, then from today, from now on.

I want you to live with dignity."

The old priest's smile froze on his face, slowly raising his head to look at Lette in the sky, filled with confusion.

"Demon... great Demon God, I don't understand what you mean... please enlighten us."

Lette slowly descended from the air, standing before the old priest, surveying the entire Rat Demon clan.

"To survive, you are willing to dirty your hands; to survive, you are unafraid to soil your hearts.

With such beliefs, then clean your hands, purify your heart.

Live with integrity!

This is my condition."

The old priest was utterly perplexed, clearly, the term 'integrity' had never appeared in the Rat man's vocabulary.

"We... we don't know... perhaps, great... Demon God? We..."

Suddenly, while the old priest's mind was blank, unsure of what to say, Lette raised Malicious Injury and fiercely swung his sword.

The demon blade imbued with the Power of Profanation swept across the scene, striking down all the Rat Demons instantly.

The Rat men fell like wheat, and the clan of thousands was wiped out in an instant.

However, not long after, the old priest suddenly sat up from the ground, gasping for air.

He touched his heart for a while, and then rubbed his neck, seemingly not believing he was still alive.

Not only he, but the other Rat men were also in a daze.

From just now until now, the actions and words of the Demon God were too strange.

A sense of fear and reverence for the unknown blossomed in the hearts of the Rat men.

"Just now, you were all killed by me. Your current lives are all because of my blessing.

This life is something you've earned."

Lette loudly declared to the thousands of Rat beings: "I don't care who you were before, what rat dreams you had.

Just now, everything has come to an end.

From now on, each of you has a new rat life.

And it belongs to me.

I don't care how you lived before, nor am I interested.

But from today, you will live as I say!"

Lette's almost domineering and overbearing declaration left the Rat men looking at each other with no objections.

They had long since become numb.

The life that was gone, that outdated existence, held no regrets or reluctance.

And the new life they received wasn't something they looked forward to.

Your fist is big, whatever you say goes.

Even with a new life, their souls remained outdated, still numb, still lacking any vitality.

Lette had already mentally prepared himself beforehand, but seeing thousands of numb and indifferent eyes still left him somewhat moved.

Indeed, it was a bit challenging.

But this challenge didn't intimidate Lette; instead, it somewhat excited him.

At this very moment, a Fury Demon standing in Purgatory quietly observed everything.

He was curious why Lette chose to enter the game even after seeing through the Gate of Truth's conspiracy.

He was also curious why Lette chose the universally considered most useless Rat Demon Clan in the Abyss and Demon Realm as his favored.

What use could such a timid, cowardly, and weak tribe have?

Yet what Lette did next left him utterly astounded!
