Abyssal Lord of the Magi World
chapter-612

Ivar frowned when he heard the Overgod's words. Any sane person would choose to side with the beautiful woman that promised to put a Principal World at their command. To make things worse, Zatiel knew the secret behind Gods' Tomb, so if this one were to side with the enemy, the Flawless knew his plan would probably fail.

Unfortunately, he, Issac, or anyone else could do nothing to force Zatiel. Just as the Rank 9 Spell protected the Neo-Demon from the Gods, it also blocked the Magi.

The Flawless turned to Zatiel and was about to remind the promise made when he froze. A small smile appeared on his face, and he could not hide the sense of humiliation that assaulted his pride.

When Ivar saw the Neo-Demon's eyes, he realized that there was not even a hint of hesitation in them. The shame he felt was due to his lack of awareness.

Unfortunately for the Overgod, a Godking would never doubt themselves. Once they took a path, they would follow it to the end, no matter the consequences. How could justice genuinely exist in a universe where a few powerful brought misery to trillions, only to generate a greater amount of food for themselves?

Zatiel did not use words to answer the Overgod's proposal. He clasped his hands, making the rune formation glow and igniting the nine black orbs.

At that exact moment, everybody saw countless red threads emerge from all the Divine Kingdoms and Gods.

The Overgod's eyes widened, and she was ready to burn her soul and life force to fight for a chance to reach the Neo-Demon. Even if she could not kill him, the woman hoped that forcing this one to teleport would weaken the power of the rune formation.

Tyr and Satan thought the same thing as their leader. White and black flames bathed their bodies as they ignited their existence and flashed forward.

There was no way Issac and Ivar would let them cross. The duo went all out, with the first facing the Overgod and the second using the Rank 9 puppet to block the God of Justice and God of Sin.

"BOOM!" In less than a second, the Magi and Gods clashed more than one hundred times, generating an explosion that literally shattered the fabric of reality.

The Rank 8 Gods saw that, and they looked at each other before deciding to flash forward. No matter what, they could not let Zatiel activate the rune formation unhindered. As long as they passed through the portal, they were sure that they could force the Neo-Demon to teleport.

Regarding the Beyond the Shackles Magi, there was no way they would protect the Neo-Demon, but they were wise enough also not to take advantage of the mayhem. No one had seen the Law Overlord that used the Rank 9 Spell over Zatiel, so they were not willing to risk it.

Hades' eyes narrowed when he saw those Rank 8 Gods approaching. He knew there was no danger for their life but did not know what would happen if the Gods forced Zatiel to teleport.

The Ancient Being of Laws had earned the Neo-Demon Ancestor's trust and understood how important this mission was not only for Zatiel but also for Ezequiel. He was about to move to the portal, to slow down any Gods that managed to cross when a voice sounded by his side.

"Karma is the metaphysical manifestation of the interaction between the Law of Cause and Law of Effect. It stands equal to Space-Time Laws, so how could something like distance could significantly hinder its power." Zatiel's voice sounded calm and without even a hint of worry.

Hades' stared at the Neo-Demon as enlightenment filled his eyes. He glanced at Issac and Ivar fighting with everything they had, displaying complete confidence in the other, and then the Rank 8 Magi across the void, which were waiting without doing anything.

"A test." The Ancient Being of Laws was aware of Zatiel's tests. Just like when the Neo-Demon enraged him, only to see whether, in his wrath, he would harm the innocent.

Zatiel gave a soft nod. "I intend to trigger a dangerous crusade soon and need an army with Rank 8 warriors."

Perform a test to search warriors during a war between two Principal Worlds that escalated to the point of involving Primarch. The more Hades knew of the Neo-Demon, the greater the sense of awe this one generated in him.

The Neo-Demon saw how the Rank 8 Gods were doing their best to circumvent the battle between Issac and Ivar against the three Rank 9 Gods. One of them managed to find a path through the shock waves and destructive energies, but he only shook his head.

Zatiel's eyes glowed as he burned his energy, life force, and even soul force to trigger the full power of the rune formation. The black orbs with shattered True Selves ignited with more force as the karmic threads in the Gods' glowed with a purple light over the red one.

The first to be affected were the Rank 7 Gods. They were watching the battle through their Divine Avatars in Gods' Tomb when the red-purple karmic threads sealed their souls, bodies, and energy, completely covering every Leeser Divine Kingdom.

Next was the Rank 8 Gods. The face of the God that was about to cross the portal filled with horror, as he felt a force that had already pierced into his essence pull him back.

He and every other God filled with despair as the karmic threads pulled them into their Divine Kingdom before sealing them.

Finally, the red-purple karmic threads affected the Rank 9 Gods!

Tyr and Satan fought against the power that sought to seal them into their Divine Kingdoms. Unlike the Rank 8 Gods, their cultivation allowed them to put up some resistance.

Sadly, while the Rank 9 Gods focused most of their power on resisting the karma threads, that generated an opening in their defenses that Ivar did not hesitate to exploit.

Ivar's eyes glowed with resolution as he sent the two Rank 9 puppets to Tyr and Satan. Once they were next to each other, he made them explode!
