Divine Path System

< Reports of the war [Submitted four hours ago] >

Haedon opened the file and his study went dark. Then a hologram of solar system covered the entire room and several red dots popped up.

"They're close." Abyss Emperor walked through the planets and saw the fallen planetoids.

Neptune, Uranus lost all their planetoids. Other planets also lost a significant number. This indicated a good progress from abyssal side and promised a victory. But Haedon wasn't happy.

"A war that should've been finished in a week, it's more than fifty days now. Why the hell are humans so resilient?" He clenched his fist unconsciously.

As he stared at the shining planets, his eyes flashed with a flash of envy. 'They're just like us, facing the invasion of a stronger enemy. But they kept fighting for far longer. Why didn't we?'

Their last province was going to fall. It's all over for them. Yet humans managed to hold on for so long. Even though they're going to lose sooner or later, this much fight was already enough to make him look at them in a different light.

It had always been this way.

When they should've perished under the danger, humans always bounced back. Sometimes, it was luck. But most of the times, it was sheer grit.

'My race doesn't lose to them in handwork. We shed our blood for our survival. But luck…even though it saved humanity only a few times is enviable.' Haedon sighed.

Haedon swiped the hologram and the videos of the abyssal rulers began to flash.

From Mercury to Neptune, the human sovereigns were fighting with their abyssal counterparts and there was some sort of stalemate at present, even though it seemed like the battle was tilted towards the abyssals.

Then, a big red light lit up on Pluto.

Haedon zoomed in and his eyes froze.

The battle of Varian leading the human army into the tiny planet and absolutely ravaging it was something he never expected.

'How the hell did this guy return?'

Varian's hologram stood in front of Haedon, abyssal blood splashed all over his body and colorful aura oozing out of him as he stared indifferently at the enemy in the hologram.

Haedon stared into Varian's eyes and his frown deepened. 'He's…changed. What happened to him? And more importantly, what will happen to us?'

The answer was quick.

He personally sent those protective formations to Pluto. But Varian ended up smashing through them. And he even broke two coffins.

"Stop!" Haedon nearly slapped at the hologram in anger before he caught himself.

Then Varian began to fight the Undead in earnest.

Haedon was amazed and alerted when he noticed the versatile powers Varian used.

'How are devas able to deliver a hybrid so advanced? It's on the kingdom or empire level?' Varian's power had always been a mystery.

Originally, so many powers from a single person would've shocked the entire abyssal race. But Haedon's announcement and normalization of hybrid knowledge calmed things down.

Still, Haedon himself didn't know much about them. Even though he's a Celestial Ranker, he's nothing in front of the big weights.

'A fallen Duchy, now a falling Province.' He tried to hide the pain with a smile and before long, he was drawn to the fight as Varian began beating down the Undead.

Haedon worried that the Undead Leader might die before nurturing the two coffins. But thankfully, Varian hurriedly left for some reason.

'Why?'

Varian was a vengeful man. Haedon knew that much. Killing millions meant nothing to this guy and he certainly wouldn't even think about sparing an enemy like Undead who almost killed him just a few months ago.

So, why would he abandon the golden opportunity to slaughter him?

Haedon soon found out after Varian reached Mercury and saw Albert's death. The artifact in his hands was missing!

"Julius!" Haedon's eyes lit up. "He finally completed the set."

Then came the battle of Varian slaying the seriously injured Sin King and fighting the Demon King.

The worrying development was Varian's increased strength. He somehow managed to hit the Sovereign-tier without becoming one.

The most scary part was the speed with which he grew.

Haedon thought Varian's quick growth would slow down once he reached high levels. Rapid growth wasn't uncommon during low and even mid levels. There were plenty of treasures to pull that off.

But for a level 9 to grow this fast…

'This was already six hours ago. What is happening now?' Haedon grew worried.

Thankfully, Varian fainted. For now, there was no big danger.

Then, the Undead Leader reached the sovereign state, pulled up two zombie sovereigns and struck Neptune.

'Finally.' Haedon released the breath he didn't know he was holding as he watched Ares killed.

And then he frowned.

The abyssal army was slaughtering Neptune.

It was a brutal sight. The mania, the twisted and sick enjoyment of the soldiers was revolting.

"Why are they doing this?" Haedon slammed the desk.

pAn,Da n<0,>v,e1 He didn't think of himself as a hero. Not when he ordered the extinction of a literal race. But he certainly didn't order them to make this so torturous.

If they're going to destroy a planet, he'd have the high awakeners do the quick killing. It'd all be over in under ten minutes. The screams, the tears and the wails wouldn't fill the screen like they did now.

He wanted to kill, sure. But not torture. This was barbaric and Haedon wondered just why the army there got so animalistic?

Abyssal army was extremely brutal against human soldiers, that's acceptable for him. But civilians?

'They killed Pluto much faster. And without any of these scenes.' Haedon's eyes dimmed as he realized the cause these abyssals were so crazy.

'Their hometown is attacked and taken heavy losses. They don't know we're almost about to be destroyed but the news that half of our population perished wouldn't be good either.'

For the abyssals fighting there, human resistance was the main reason they couldn't get the legacy quickly.

So, they took the anger out on the civilians.
