"Oh? But that's a title that was only given to me by you! And it means nothing all. People of the world, I have changed my ways. And now that I've reached this high, I have understood the beauty of everything, and how I love everything as well! I don't want to destroy the world, not at all! I want to save it, I want to help it flourish, and all of you, beautiful people, are the most important part here! I have decided to open my Pantheon for recruitment! Everyone, please help me save the world together!"

Kireina had completely gone against all expectations!

Kireina's words shook the world!

But how would the Gods even buy this? What kind of unbelievable lie was this?

Kireina was simply being absurd! After everything she did, after all the things she had done, she ends up repenting and trying to help the world?

Why? The Gods couldn't understand anyway that this could be actually possible.

"What is she talking about?"

"She's… her presence is so powerful but… She's evil! …Right?"

"Her presence is that of a Supreme already, despite being a Rank 1 Great Goddess! Is this her hidden power? It is immense…"

"And remember that this is a mere will! How could the real deal be? Even stronger?"

"Is Kireina defying the laws we had always know about? She's stronger than those above her realm…"

"Well, she killed gods as a mortal, so it shouldn't be surprising…"

The World's Will quickly went berserk.

"She must be lying! And that power within her is most likely some trick of her illusion attribute! Don't believe this treacherous woman! She had slaughtered countless gods to reach this power, do you truly believe she can repent and turn into the righteous path? Who would you believe? The World's Will or the evil that has slaughtered many?" asked the World's Will.

"Of course, you, World's Will-sama!"

"You are the representation of the world, fate, and order!"

"You bring peace to our era!"

However, Kireina didn't give up, she seemed to have planned something! And was not going to give in to the World's Will words…

"Of course, everything she's saying is right. I have slaughtered many through my journey, but all of them were beings that tried to kill me, and it is not like they were any important gods, right? They were all Demon Gods that had tried to kill me first! And mortals… Well, I have repented well enough, all mortals within my Divine Realm are living fulfilling lives, and I have even reincarnated the souls of those that I had once killed, giving them the best second lives they could. Is this not enough to repent for my crimes? Of course, it is not, right? Because I have many things planned too, everyone!" said Kireina.

"What? She's…"

"Well, isn't she right though?"

"Indeed, she only fought to survive!"

"Hephaestus too, he tried to kill her first, right?"

"Yeah… And the Demon Gods as well… It is not like she is a bad being because she killed these Gods, we would have done the same in her place, is it not?"

The Gods began to discuss, some seemed to have suddenly had their eyes opened!

They questioned their own thoughts because what Kireina said this time wasn't a lie, it was the actual and factual truth. There were reasons behind all that she did.

"Don't dare say such things when you have turned this world upside down by your mere presence! You were the one that slaughtered hundreds of innocent demigods and gods in the lower Realm area of the Realm of Vida, didn't you?" asked the World's Will.

"I did, but that was also in self-defense! All those Gods came to me to kill me. What did you expect me to do? To die a miserable death? See, people? This is why you can't really sympathize with her, nor she will ever do with all of you! I know very well how all of you try to live your lives in this chaotic world filled with war and blood. You would have surely fought to your last bit of divine energy to survive too, right? Who would merely accept their fate and die?" asked Kireina, shocking the Gods once more!

"Ah! It's true! She was fighting for self-defense!"

"Yeah… Yeah!"

"But the World's Will said- I… How dare you not trust her? She's the world's will!"

"But Kireina is right! It is a fact, we would all fight for survival. She killed some mortal heroes and ended triggering all of this… But so what? Are you going to tell me that you had the lives of saints that never killed another when you were mortals just to survive?"

"Yeah, those that don't have empathy for Kireina are just biased righteous idiots!"

"But even then… she has killed many, and is unreliable! What if it is a trap? Maybe she wants to eat us!"

"That's right…"

"See? Don't let yourselves be coaxed by her charm, everyone! She wants to lure you into her nest to devour you and gain more power, she doesn't have the title of insatiable gula for nothing!" said the World's Will.

"Hah! It is interesting how you're trying to convince these people that you're the good one here, aren't you? After all, you've done to the gods for thousands of years!" said Kireina.

"What? What has the World's Will done?"

"It has only been protecting the world!"

"Right?"

"As someone who has learned many things across her short life, ad who has reached this position, I know many things… But this one truth is something all of you already know about and had already experienced. The Divine Trials, Heavenly Calamities, and Heavenly Tribulations, all of them! Who do you think sends these deadly trials to you? Who do you think is constantly trying to ruin your cultivation, your divine realms, your resources? I am sure that many of you are always fearful that you won't be able to get through the next trial… Right? Well, the one that always creates them is her and no one else! Since immemorable eras, it has always been hers!" said Kireina.

All the Divine Wills were shocked, as the Gods all across Realms opened their eyes wide!

It was true!

How could they be so stupid to even try to ally the one entity that has been trying to suppress their cultivation the most? The one entity that has been trying to suppress their power from soaring, the one that has taken so many lives through these accursed divine trials!

May Gods had died due to them, all of them were killed by the World's Will, no less!

Silence took hold of the entire Interdimensional Merchant Shop, even the World's Will suddenly felt like she was forced into a corner! She couldn't deny the truth, because everyone knew it and had experienced it. It was true, she was automatically always sending trials to all gods whenever they reached a new realm so there could be a chance for them to die, after all, the power the gods had belonged to her originally! If they all died, it would go back to her one way or another!

In fact, her greatest goal could be said to be that of slaughtering all of the Gods, but she was masking it as someone righteous, that desired Order!

Although many still considered many other things, they knew deep down that this was a factual truth, something that couldn't be denied!

"That's… because it is to help you! Through the Attribute Particles…!" said the World's Will, trying to convince them through the good side of such trials, which was unintended, but it was something she couldn't control as these trials were made of natural attributes and naturally harbored these attribute particles when created with her divine power that went through all of Genesis.

It was actually completely unintended that divine trials and their upgraded versions would end up boosting the cultivation of the gods when defeated…

Of course, they didn't know this truth, and a large amount suddenly used this excuse to justify their hate for Kireina and their desire to kill her, mostly because they envied her immense progress and unique powers.

"Certainly, that is true, but there have been many gods that had died to them nonetheless! Perhaps cultivation would be slower without them, but it would also be less risky! There would be way more Supreme Gods or other powerful beings if these trials didn't exist, right? The World's Will fear that our population increases exponentially, that's because when we cultivate, we use the power that comes from her! Her true plan is as clear as water, everyone! She is the real enemy here, she is the one that actually desires to kill all of you! She wants to destroy all the Gods, so all the power we have "stolen" from her can go back to her!" said Kireina, as the Gods opened their eyes widely!

It was true! It made sense! It was all the truth!

RUMBLE!

The gods began to chat incredibly fast and loudly through their Divine Wills in the Interdimensional Merchant Shop, all of them were getting hysterical over this immense realization, although most of the Great Gods knew this while all Supreme Gods knew this too, many of those low-realm deities didn't! And in the end, these were the divine entities that made up for most of the divine population!

"It can't be… the World's Will… It actually wants to kill us?!"

"It is obvious… I see I see!"

"To think that we were almost convinced by her!"

"Perhaps Kireina did many horrible things, but compared to the World's Will, who has been killing us for thousands of years to regain more of her power, it is really nothing!"

"Y-You idiots, stop believing her words! She's most likely lying!"

"Yeah, she's lying! Don't believe her!"

"But it makes sense! No matter how much I think over it… it makes sense!"

The World's Will would grit her teeth if she had any, as she was furious! Furious to the core!

"How dare you?! I would… never do such a thing! You completely misunderstood my plans! I… I wasn't trying to do that! I was trying to foment their growth, so all the gods can become strong and help the world be rebuilt in the near future! That some had died is… well, to be expected! After all, it is a filtering process, only the strongest and most apt will survive!" said the World's Will.

Her speech was doing good, it could have helped her regain more trust.

But at that last sentence, she fucked up.

Kireina smiled devilishly, her sharp fangs showing off within her Divine Realm as her true body sat over a throne, her crimson-red eyes flashing with malice!

"F-Filtering process?! What are you even talking about! See, everyone? She doesn't even treat any of you like people! All of you have your own talents, your own great things to give to the world… yet she is only filtering you as if you were mere cattle? Only leaving the best suitable ones for a fighting left? What kind of sick plan is this? You really disgust me, World's Will! To think that I had some respect for you… Now it is all gone!" said Kireina, as the Gods who were half-convinced suddenly broke into more crazy conversations, expressing their thoughts and overwhelming the World's Will!

"What the hell? So we are mere tools for her? Just to filer us out?"

"That's sick! Even as a Demon God born as a monster, I also have a sense of self-value! I would never be okay with being filtered because of such a stupid thought process!"

"I see… She's really just another being, completely different from us! Due to being so strong, she had never suffered the things we did…"

"Meanwhile, Kireina, although briefly, was also like us, once a mortal! She really… understand us!"

"Stupid! Stop thinking that! You are falling on her trap!" said the World's Will.

"Heh, it seems that it has been decided, although not all… a lot of people has been enlightened of your true intentions, World's Will!" said Kireina.

Author's Note:

Sorry to interrumpt the action guys, but I was wondering if you got any more ideas for Daos, the idea contest is still ongoing! I've already decided to add a couple of your suggestions, but more are always appreciated (and it doenst have to be just of Kireina, but of other characters within her family too!).

Addiitonally, I would like to as you if you got any ideas regarding Realm Core Abilities, they're usually large buildings or facilities with special effects that can be shared with a wide amount of people, so go crazy and suggest anything that comes to your mind!

If you find any errors ( broken links, non-standard content, etc.. ), Please let us know < report chapter > so we can fix it as soon as possible.
