Chapter 731 Conquest (3)

It took Nial and the ten Infernal Devils less than a day to annihilate the Heligav across the entire stellar system.

Some may ask if it was truly necessary to annihilate the entire Heligav race, but Nial could answer this with a decisive 'yes!'.

Nial was pretty certain that it was necessary.

First of all, the survivors of the Heligav race would have formed a never-ending grudge against him if he were to keep some of them alive. Nial would have turned into their mortal enemy until one of the two sides were to cease to exist.

Nial skipped a few steps and annihilated the Heligav race from the get-go. Of course, there were still a few more territories that had to be cleansed thoroughly but Nial had already sent the Infernal Devils to cleanse them as well.

Using the information provided in the database of the Heligav race, they had a dozen small territories all over the Universe. Using Shadow and world bridges, the Infernal Devils easily wiped out everyone.

Once again, some may question whether he was justified or not, but Nial didn't really care about that.

Nobody would even dare to think of him as a pushover after he finished his plan. Though he might be seen as a vile and wicked existence, it was not as if that was something new. The vast majority of the Universe was already considering him as the Dark Successor.

So what if he annihilated the Heligav race? They attacked him first!

So what if he intended to annihilate the Angel race and the other ten races who had combined forced to attack him?

Any of the Primordials, Ancient, and other Gods with pride and backbone would do the same. Why was he not allowed to do the same? Because he was the Dark Successor? What nonsense!

The only problem others had with him was that he had become the successor of the Late God of Darkness, that he was in possession of a huge Army of mighty Devils, and that the Gigalorian Galaxies had resurfaced, stronger than ever before at that.

Even the Primordials, Ancients, and other Divine Gods began to fear him.

Nial was actually fine with that as long as they allowed him to kill the Advocate of the Pryard. Once that was done, he would be able to live calmly with his family and increase his strength slowly while awaiting the arrival of Hoert.

He could build his own family and ignore the powerhouses, let them do their own thing.

Of course, the Advocate of the Pryard wasn't stupid. Nial was actually pretty sure that the Advocate was a scheming bastard. This had become quite clear after the last incident in which Nial had been pulled into the Witness State.

Nial could tell that the Advocate was currently doing some scheming in an attempt to overwhelm Nial in the long run. The Advocate would pull all forces to his side, leaving Nial no chance but to fight his way through the ranks of powerful entities before he would reach the Advocate.

However, that was fine.

Nial was constantly becoming stronger. After annihilating the dozen races, who had attacked the Orion Shelter while he was asleep, he may need some time to digest their bodies, but his strength would increase drastically. He was in possession of the Cursed Divine Ability 'Devour', and the Cursed Divinity 'Heart of Gluttony', after all!

For now, he already felt a little bloated. He didn't want to lead the attack on the remaining perpetrators of the attack on the Orion Shelter either.

Thus, he changed his approach of the whole situation gradually.

As long as he used Shadow and a bunch of world bridges to travel across the entire Universe, Nial could become the courier that sent out a bunch of Devils to each of the races who had attacked him.

That ought to be more than enough to annihilate them. The Devils were also in possession of high-ranked spatial rings, which were large enough to store billions of corpses and countless resources.

Nial already got to know their spatial rings' capabilities in the stellar system of the Heligav race. The Infernal Devils didn't see much value in the resources of the lowly Heligav race but they knew that Nial could devour all kinds of things. Every bit of energy would help Nial to progress.

The Infernal Devils plundered the entire stellar system with that in mind.

The batch of spatial rings in his possession was now overflowing with billions of corpses and countless - more or less useful - resources.

It was a great day for him and a devastating day for the Heligav race. As for the remaining perpetrators, their fate was also sealed even if they had yet to find out.

Once his task in the Heligav's stellar system was completed, he returned to the Orion Shelter. However, his mission was not yet completed.

He used his surplus reinforced dark energy to empower Shadow and replenish his energy. After that, he collected a thousand Devils, and pulled them inside his Heart of Gluttony before he and Shadow began their journey through the Universe.

He spent two days traveling with Shadow's unique teleportation trait to play courier, sending off the thousand Devils he had collected earlier.

After that, Nial left the Devils alone. He and Shadow returned back home where Nial had to focus on digesting the Heligavs' corpses, and his work as Saint Runicier. He and Ophelia had lots of work to do after the vast majority of the Orion Shelter had been destroyed.

However, they were not the only ones who had to work tirelessly. Everyone had their own share of work to complete. Nobody slacked off, knowing that the Orion Shelter had to prepare for the next attack.

It was unknown when they would be attacked again. The Oracle could make certain predictions using her Divinity but she was not as powerful as before anymore. Her Divinity was not guided by the Universe. Of course, she hadn't been abandoned by the Universe, but after descending on Jundra, her identity had changed gradually.

She now belonged to Nial, and not to the Universe anymore.

Nial returned to the thousand Devils less than two weeks after he sent them off. They completed their task, annihilating the remaining races. Each of the thousand Devils had millions of corpses stored in their spatial rings. The sheer number of corpses exceeded Nial's wildest imagination.

Oddly enough, he didn't even feel guilty anymore.

If he had felt a little tinge in his heart killing innocent people before, Nial now felt as if his actions were actually justified.

But even if he felt like that, he knew deep down that it was not fair.

Unfortunately, fairness was something that didn't exist in the Universe. The strongly ruled supreme and the weak could only do their best in order to survive. They either lay low and avoid offending the strong, or they had to become subordinate to the strong, and do their dirty work.

Doing neither of them would inevitably result in a devastating fate, the fate the dozen races had encountered after attacking Nial.
