Although, from the perspective of the ‘Moon’, the Nether Moon indeed was the original one, this nickname still sounded somewhat odd.

“That’s good, my visit here is indeed related to them.”

Feeling somewhat relieved, Hades stretched out his hand to capture a thread of the pale purple moonlight.

This power, a mixture of Spirituality and Element, wasn’t as complicated as he had imagined, but in order to spread this power throughout the range of the Underworld, the function of the corresponding Godhood was indispensable.

“Since you know them, you must have felt the faith that emanates from them, right?”

His expression grew more solemn as Hades looked at the land in the distance, towards the temple structure built on the east side of the Underworld’s Divine Palace.

“Perhaps due to their numbers, the wraiths’ faith is insubstantial now, but Princess Liana, if you are willing to increase the concentration of the unclaimed Magic Power in the light of the Nether Moon, perhaps in a few hundred years, the number of wraiths in the Underworld will reach millions—”

“No, the wraiths that awaken purely because they are influenced by Magic Power and naturally born in the environment of the Underworld cannot awaken Wisdom.”

Shaking her head slightly and interrupting Hades once more, Liana couldn’t help feeling a bit more contempt for him inside.

As expected, gods from the outside world still conformed to her stereotypical image of them. Even after studying wraiths for so long, they still hadn’t understood the principle of their birth of Wisdom.

“The existences that have now acquired Wisdom are mostly the transformed beings of earthly creatures that were brought into the Underworld by deities after death, the stronger they were in life, the better the wraiths they become after death. As for those born from energy accumulation, they are inherently defective; unless supplemented with external force, they will forever be lower beings.”

“Without even understanding this, I don’t know what you’re here for.”

“So that’s how it is!”

Not angry, Hades simply had some sort of epiphany.

He had only ascended a mere century ago, and many things were still unclear to him. It is said that wraiths have been born in the Underworld for thousands of years, and with such a long time but so few possessing Wisdom, there naturally had to be a reason.

He didn’t know why before, but now he finally understood.

“Then I suppose I was not fully prepared.”

“But no matter, I will ask my brother to surrender the bodies of some mortal beings after their death to the jurisdiction of the Underworld. In exchange, I can abstain from interfering directly in the faith of humans on the surface, he will grant me this face.”

Immediately thinking of a solution, Hades turned his gaze back to Liana.

“Well, alright then.”

Indifferently nodding her head, Liana didn’t really care about the faith of the wraiths. But after some thought, she eventually spoke:

“I can agree to your request, allowing the Nether Moon to release more of its Magic Power aura, but you’ll also need to spread some existing faith among the wraiths for me.”

“Of course, no problem. May I ask which deities? I will definitely make arrangements later.”

Agreeing immediately, this was still within Hades’ expectations. Yet he hadn’t known until now that those intelligent wraiths were the transformations of actual living beings after death.

But it made sense since they could retain some memories from life; they did have to have a ‘life’ before, something he had previously overlooked.

“Ononia, Dike, and Erinys. They preside over spring, summer, and autumn and can bring rebirth to All Spirits.”

Since living beings are cleansed of memories after death, these three goddesses of rebirth have been unknown to the outside world. As the first intelligent life born in the Spirit Realm, Liana felt it was necessary to consider their situation.

And although those wraiths didn’t worship the Lord of the Spirit Realm, Liana felt that was only because they were unaware of the Lord’s grandeur. Once they knew that the Nether Moon was just an outward manifestation of the Spirit Realm, they should have a different belief from other beings of the outside world.

“Good.”

Hades nodded in agreement, being the god of the desolate Underworld, he had a preference for those godly duties associated with Life.

If the followers of these three goddesses in the Underworld gradually increased, perhaps they would also contribute to the growth of the Underworld of their own accord.

His purpose for this visit was thus satisfactorily accomplished. Hades was about to take his leave when suddenly he remembered something.

He glanced again at the Goddess of the Nether Moon, feeling the familial closeness of their Godhood as before.

The Underworld had been illuminated by the light of the Nether Moon for millennia, and all vitality stemmed from it. If she were truly willing to collaborate with him to develop the Underworld, that would be much more suitable than Demeter.

So Hades hesitated briefly, and in the end, under Liana’s watchful eye, he slowly began to speak.

“Princess Liana, no offense intended, but as two beings situated above and below within the Underworld, I believe we have much more we could collaborate on.”

“So what?”

Considering it was just a matter of adjusting the concentration of Magic Power and having someone do her a favor, Liana decided to hear what the other party had to say.

“Well, what I mean to say is…” Looking at Liana, Hades spoke sincerely, “Just as the Heavenly Father and Mother Earth became the first Divine King and Queen of the Gods, perhaps—what are you doing?!”

With a tone of surprise and uncertainty, Hades recoiled. Wisps of gray light rose from the ground, entwining around their master.

In front of Hades, the Nether Moon’s light almost instantly intensified. An immeasurable Light was released, and the entire gloomy Underworld was lit as if it were daytime.
