Chapter 406: Chapter 312 God’s Intention_3 Chapter 406: Chapter 312 God’s Intention_3 “This argument is incorrect. Deities are entities that surpass the mundane. Only the mightiest strength and the highest pedigree can achieve such miracles. Yet, the eagle soaring in the sky degrades itself to the status of a sparrow. Isn’t that ludicrous?”
“That’s because the eagle knows of the vast sky, but it does not know of the possibilities that the world is even vaster.”
Heshera’s implication, Duanmu Huai understands. Many Indigenous Gods are , claiming themselves as the best in the world. But in reality, the world and the Star Territory, they believe they rule, is merely a corner of the vast sea……
However, Duanmu Huai’s thoughts were abruptly interrupted by Heshera.
“No matter how vast the sky is, an eagle will never squander its pride. It’s even more absurd that an eagle simulates the sparrow or the rabbit. I do not know what troubles you so much. However, can worry solve the problem? As a God, you cower in fear like a human child, what then is the value and meaning of your divine name?!”
At this, Duanmu Huai was struck with a jolt.
“Listen, a deity does not gain pride because of its power, that’s only for the insignificant insects. On the contrary, a deity gains power because of its pride. The power that far exceeds everything, and destruction? If it merely cowers to such things, then what would be the existence value for a God?”
This time, Duanmu Huai fell into silence. From Heshera’s words, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have made a mistake.
Throughout, Duanmu Huai considered his actions from a player’s perspective, such as how to resist the Evil God, how to expand power, accumulate strength.
But he forgot, even if he was a player, he was still a human—not a deity.
For players, if you can’t defeat an adversary, run and then come back after leveling up, or choose to avoid when encountering stronger opponents, it doesn’t seem to be a significant issue.
But, it’s not the same for deities.
Indeed, Duanmu Huai always considered the Chaos Evil God as his greatest enemy.
A lot could be justified, like how they are robust, how pervasive their influence, unnoticeable infiltration, control over the life and soul throughout the Milky Way, etc.… If you were to list them down, three days and nights wouldn’t be enough.
However, just because of this, should he surrender?
But if he doesn’t surrender, how should he face them?
Is it simply to accumulate power and seize the opportunity to defeat the adversary? To preserve oneself as much as possible, to avoid being exploited by the Chaos Evil God?
Of course, this is a player’s strategy, but… players are humans.
And Duanmu Huai, he is now a God.
Indeed, although perhaps he wasn’t as powerful as the Chaos Evil God, he was standing on an equal level as them… as a God.
Mortals have only to resist, be beguiled, submit in the face of the Evil God.
We’re all Gods, why should I be afraid of you?
Your Godliness is divine, isn’t mine?
You’re powerful, can’t I strive for it too?
Upon realizing this, Duanmu Huai felt sudden enlightenment in the depths of his heart.
That’s right, this is it. He is no longer a mortal that can be easily manipulated by the Chaos Evil God. He, too, holds the same divine position, holds the Divine Realm, holds the divinity of the Demon God. Right, even if it’s in the same domain, can’t I snatch your divinity too?
Yeah, the God of Brutality is terrifying, but I, the God of Destruction, am not to be messed with either.
Even if we all fight for this position, I can snatch it too!
Duanmu Huai reopened his eyes, suddenly feeling the world before him was entirely different. Even the invisible burden in his heart seemed to have dissolved significantly.
“Thank you for your guidance, Heshera.”
“I just advised you because you didn’t take action against this young kid.”
“Regardless, I thank you. Feel free to reach out in the future.”
“Hehe, let’s go, kid.”
Heshera chuckled, disappearing once again. Selica nodded at Duanmu Huai and left the room.
Duanmu Huai stretched, then lifted his head.
“Right then, this problem… is finally solved.”
After that, he began to talk to himself.
