943 Horrific Realization

Alex checked out David with a perplexed expression.

Even when by logic of time journey, the weaker demon lord would make sense, nonetheless sense they may make from precise time journey, he remained unconvinced.

“How can we make sure about this?”

David’s forehead furrowed in a deep frown as he stared again at Alex.

“What do you imply? It is easy logic. His spell wasn’t full, and too many issues about it have been pressured misplaced for it to work correctly. Regardless that the demon lord is sure to have appeared once more, it will not be the identical, and he shall be weaker.”

Alex shook his head, his thoughts trying on the downside in another way.

“What if what we despatched in time, sorry, what I despatched in time, was weaker at first however poses a a lot better menace?”

David was confused.

“How may one thing weaker pose extra of a menace?” he requested, his eyebrows furrowing deeper but once more.

“If the primary time Zagan traversed time, he got here out as himself, however stronger, he would have strived to turn out to be a demon lord that guidelines over all the things. One which invades worlds to rule over greater lands. However what about somebody who is not Zagan?”

David realized he had certainly stated that it was a chance that Zagan’s thoughts hadn’t come out on prime throughout this spell misfire.

“The opposite demons within the ring have been all weaker than Zagan. What distinction wouldn’t it make?” he requested, shrugging.

“I am not afraid of them. I am afraid of the only different being that Zagan dragged with him. One which was not sure by their ideologies. One which had a lot grander ambitions in life, that have been solely crushed by his mortality.

“A mortality {that a} demon physique would have nipped within the bud…” Alex stated, his voice quivering.

David considered it for a second and realized who he meant.

His face darkened.

“Even whether it is him that controls the demon physique they now share, would he actually be a hazard to us?” he requested.

David shrugged, his face virtually mocking.

“So? Even when what you say is true, what does that change? I am positive that solely means the demons cannot do shit to him. What does that should do with Solomon and his return to the previous with a demon physique?”

Alex checked out him intently.

“That’s precisely it. What if Solomon is in charge of the demon physique? Does not that imply he is not below that rule? What if Solomon is as weak as you assume, however is invading different worlds to vary that? What if his plan reaches one other stage completely?”

David frowned.

“Like what? Kill Gaius? That might give us a favour. And even when that’s true, solely gods can kill gods. Until they’ve god-killing weapons, which, you guessed it, come from gods as properly,” he stated, smirking.

However his smirk vanished as he stated these phrases, and his face paled.

Alex checked out him, figuring out he had reached the identical conclusion as he already had.

“If Solomon desires to turn out to be a god, he would not simply want energy. He would want followers, and numerous them. However that also would not make him sturdy sufficient to confront Gaius. Until…”

“Until he weakens Gaius’ energy by killing his followers in droves. It could dilute his energy sufficient to make him killable, even from a new child god…” David interrupted him in realization.

“And, if we consider how Gaius likes to be referred to as, judging from our little data of him, the place does he have essentially the most followers?” Alex requested, giving David the final push.

David remembered a dialog he had with Chronos in his final life, after they mentioned the gods collectively. The Chronos of that timeline had an excellent understanding of how Gaius operated, as he had encountered him a couple of times.

Dabbling with time had an inclination to name undesirable consideration, in spite of everything.

However the phrases Chronos had instructed him nonetheless resounded in his head.

“Gaius is an smug god. He thinks he’s stronger and higher than all the opposite gods. Which is why he insists they name him God. He additionally likes to create worlds the place he forces worship of himself onto the lots, giving himself extra energy. Similar to Earth.”

David checked out Alex in horror.

“Right here. Gaius has essentially the most followers right here, on Earth…”
