Fate?
Soren couldn’t help but frown upon hearing this.
The God of Death, Ye Ge, showed no reaction and calmly said, “As a newly promoted deity, your performance has surprised many.”
“However.”
“There was once someone who performed even more astonishingly than you!”
“In just a few years, he advanced from a mortal to a deity, and he was a deity of strong divine power, acquiring most of the death divinity.”
“Do you know who he is?”
Soren felt a shiver run through him upon hearing Ye Ge’s words, and then he said solemnly, “I know.”
“He is Sherek!”
Ye Ge’s gaze shifted slightly, and there seemed to be a slight change when he mentioned this name, then he continued, “That’s right.”
“He is indeed Sherek.”
“He was the fastest rising mortal in the history of the multiverse! He even became one of the most powerful among the gods for a time!”
“Klanvor may be the King of the Dead.”
“But the one who initially acquired most of my death divinity was Sherek! He first took the death divinity from Milko and then obtained Baal’s killing divinity.”
“Even when Bane died, he absorbed most of His followers.”
“However.”
“Sherek’s ambitions were far too great! He ultimately perished due to his own mad ambitions! As a deity, you should know a bit about this history.”
“Later.”
“Klanvor, guided by me, took the death divinity belonging to Milko from Sherek’s hands and became the King of the Dead now!”
“Sherek’s madness did not stop as a result.”
“After losing Milko’s death divinity, he turned his ambitions toward the recently revived Tyrant God Bane. This struggle between deities was not recorded in history.”
“However.”
“In the end, he succeeded.”
“The Tyrant God – Bane fell! The divinity that originally belonged to Bane thus became vacant, but by that time, the gods had already grown fearful of the things Sherek had done.”
“They feared that Sherek would provoke another catastrophe by gaining the powers of the Tyrant God.”
“So.”
“The divinity of the Tyrant God ultimately ended up with a lucky individual involved in this conspiracy. He is now the Demon God of Fear, but because of Sherek, the Demon God of Fear moved his divine kingdom to the Abyss.”
“Sherek’s mad ambitions left the gods feeling discontented and fearful!”
“After the death of the Tyrant God, the gods finally decided to join forces to punish and judge Sherek! In the end, he was banished and sealed, and even now he remains imprisoned in the space where the gods sealed him.”
The God of Death, Ye Ge, stopped there.
However, Soren had already understood the general situation; this matter was indeed related to the God of Murder, because according to original history, Sherek should have emerged during the later stages of the Saint’s Cataclysm. Most deities found Sherek, the instigator, troublesome, because his ambitions were overwhelmingly vast. Not satisfied with being one of the most powerful deities, he even attempted to become the only true god at that time. If it weren’t for his self-destructive actions, Sherek’s fate might not have been so tragic, for the gods at that time could not defeat Sherek without uniting.
At his peak, Sherek was very close to great divine power.
He simultaneously wielded the death, killing, and conspiracy divinities and recruited most of the former followers of the Three Death Deities.
One could say he became the most evil deity with the most followers and divinities at that time!
What the God of Death, Ye Ge, truly worried about was not the Demon God of Fear but the God of Murder, Sherek, who had not yet been released.
Baal’s divinity was in his hands.
Currently, the situation in the God of Death system is that Klanvor holds the divinity of the King of the Dead, existing at a strong divine power level, while the Demon God of Fear is also of strong divine power but has now fallen.
The core of the killing divinity resides within Sherek, who also holds the conspiracy divinity.
At the end of the first Saint’s Cataclysm.
Sherek viewed Klanvor as his greatest enemy and despised the third-generation Goddess of Magic. However, after the revival of the Tyrant God Bane, he regarded Bane as the greatest threat. At that time, after plotting Bane’s death, Sherek also seized a portion of Bane’s divinity. Coupled with his original killing divinity, he was nearly among the most dangerous of strong divine powers.
Therefore.
Even though Sherek has been sealed for a long time, when he emerges during the Saint’s Cataclysm, his power will still remain at a level above medium divine power.
Not the half-hearted medium divine power that Soren possesses now.
But that kind of medium divine power approaching strong divine power!
According to past historical progress, when Sherek emerged, he would be plotting to acquire the powers of the Demon God of Fear. If he could seize the divinity of the Demon God of Fear, then even the current King of the Dead, Klanvor, would be no match for him.
He would be the kind of existence that even the God of Death, Ye Ge, would find troublesome!
………………
It was indeed thought that he wanted to let himself deal with Sherek.
Soren quickly guessed the ins and outs of the matter, but his mood became a bit heavier.
Because Ye Ge wasn’t wrong; Sherek was indeed one of the enemies Soren must face! Because Soren himself was of the bloodline of the Son of Slaughter, he now possesses the Killing Domain and has received information hints regarding the killing divinity. It was precisely because Sherek was sealed that Soren could steal and acquire the killing divinity; otherwise, if Sherek hadn’t caused a stir, it would have been almost impossible for him to easily obtain the information regarding the killing divinity.
Moreover, Sherek was a very narrow-minded, self-centered, and extremely extreme deity!
With such a deity, if he were to emerge after being sealed for a long time and suddenly found that part of his killing divinity had been taken by Soren!
What would he do then?
Soren would almost certainly have to go to war with him, and within this hostile relationship, there would also be a struggle for the powers of the Demon God of Fear.
Everything began to become clear.
Soren suddenly grasped the key to breaking the stalemate, that being the already deceased Demon God of Fear!
Now Soren and Sherek were both only at medium divine power, and even if there was a gap, it wouldn’t be too large. Since Sherek was a lone wolf and had too many enemies, he faced enemies among the gods everywhere. In contrast, Soren had a good relationship with other deities and had some as allies. If a real confrontation ensued, the outcome would probably be fifty-fifty.
Thus, the power of the Demon God of Fear became the key!
If Soren could acquire the power of the Demon God of Fear or assist Vivian in obtaining the power of the Demon God of Fear, then dealing with Sherek would be no problem.
But if Sherek acquired the power of the Demon God of Fear, then Soren would have almost no chance of victory!
The God of Death, Ye Ge, probably saw him today for this very reason.
Perhaps for this ancient God of Death, who no longer concerned himself with the affairs of the gods, Sherek, the troublemaker, would also be a very headache-inducing existence.
