Chapter 827 New Visitors.
He must have his revenge one way or the other. There is no way he can let this go. He has to make the sage regret something. He has his eyes on just the right thing to attack. He will target the new child of the plane of the Virut plane. A new one appeared immediately after Soverick\'s death. It is obvious that the sage had been prepared for him to kill Soverick and that the sage cares about the title. If the sage didn\'t care about the title, then he wouldn\'t have ensured its continuation.
He also heard that the new child of the plane is a descendant of the sage. She is also not an origin god so she isn\'t immortal. Killing her should hurt the sage and the performance of the Virut plane during the era of conquest. He already sent out assassins that will do the job for him. These assassins are black-robed, hidden, and non-descript so they will not be traced back to him.
He promised himself, "If I can kill the previous child of the plane, then I can kill the next one. This time, I\'ll make sure that there won\'t be a substitute for the title."
The serpentine world god continued his preparation for the war of worlds. He was busy with this when he received another visitor. A world god knocked on the space he created.
"Who is it?" He asked. "I am not in the mood for visitors. Say what you want and leave. Or breakthrough the barrier if you want to fight."
The visitor asked, "Do you want to kill the first sage?"
"What is that to you?" He asked with a snort that sent a shockwave through the space. He didn\'t stop working on the sword.
"I can help you kill the first sage."
That drew the serpentine world god\'s attention. "Tell me how?" He asked.
"Allow me to come in."
He chose to acquiesce. "Fine. Come in."
But then his eyes narrowed and he rose up when the visitors entered his space. He became ready to do battle when he saw who his visitor are.
"Is this a joke?" He asked with unconcealed anger. "Do you take me for a fool?"
His visitors are battle sage monkeys. One of them has white fur like the first sage. The other has no fur. It is smooth like a statue and is completely black. The white one has one tail while the black one has 3 tails. The tails are blue, black, and golden.
What\'s even more infuriating to the serpentine world god apart from their identities as world gods is the fact that the white one also has special eyes. The two eyes are completely black with white specks scattered around the surface. Those eyes are peering at him and he knows that his secrets are not safe from them.
The white battle sage monkey said, "We bear you no Ill will. We are sincere about forming a corporation with you to take down the first sage."
The serpentine world god doesn\'t believe her. "Swear to it." He said.
What are the odds that battle sage monkeys who are of the same race and from the same plane as the first sage are here to help him? He would rather believe that they are part of the first Sage\'s scheme against him. So he demanded that they swear an Oath on their world about their sincerity.
"I, the keeper of secrets, swear it upon my world that I am sincere about cooperating with you the Viper of hegemony to kill the first sage at least once."
"I, the lightning of heavenly punishment, swear it upon my world that I am sincere about cooperating with you the Viper of Hegemony to kill the first sage at least once."
The serpentine world god wasn\'t satisfied with their oaths. He sneered and said, "Nice try. It seems you still think I am a fool. Make a better Oath or we will fight right now."
The two of them swore about their sincerity. But sincerity counts for nothing. They might be since about killing the first sage and they might actually hate the first sage a lot, but that doesn\'t mean they are not helping the first sage now. That\'s the thing about oaths. You have to pay attention to the wording or you will be deceived.
He has been deceived just recently so he is very wary. Besides, he is not foolish as to fall for that simple deceit. The fact that he was ripped off sideways and upside down by the first sage doesn\'t mean he is foolish.
The white battle sage monkey said, "It was worth a shot."
"I, the keeper of secrets, swear it upon my world that I am not working with the first sage in any way and I will not mention this meeting or its outcome to anyone."
Ghastorix also swore the same Oath. He hatred the first sage very much. If it were up to him, he won\'t stop at killing the first sage only once. This hatred is partly due to Soverick\'s death. If Hadrick was not fooled by the propaganda, he above all else can not be fooled. He knows that the first sage took advantage of the most glorious descendant of his to win a bet. The first sage then killed his descendant and replaced him with a descendant of his.
If the first sage had not made an offer he couldn\'t refuse, he might not be here right now. If Soverick hadn\'t died, he might not be here right now. If Salvini hadn\'t replaced Soverick, he might not be here right now. If Hadrick hadn\'t complained about Soverick\'s unjust treatment, he might not be here right now.
And to top it off, if the keeper of secrets hadn\'t approached him and told him about the first sage\'s bet, what the first sage gained, and also expressed the intention to ally with him, then he might not be here right now. All of these little things piled on top of each other to make him determined to kill the first sage.
