After the Lord of the Abyss Awakens - Chapter 120.2
Lelagin, as the Elven Ancestor God, was among the few who knew of the Creator God’s existence. His memory couldn’t be false, so this was real history.
But after speaking, Lelagin’s brow remained tightly furrowed, not speaking for a long time.
The gray cat, seeing Him so sad, didn’t want to push further, patting His back and saying, “It’s okay, Lelagin. Take your time.”
The Devon Rex cat nodded, “Mm.”
After the questioning ended, the gray cat took the short-legged cat out of the bedroom.
Shocked by the news, the gray cat quickly sent a message to Marbas.
Marbas’s side showed the message as unread, with no response for a long time.
The gray cat waited half a day with no response, noticing the sky was getting dark.
What to do?
The short-legged cat grew bored and went to tend the garden flowers.
The gray cat turned to see the Devon Rex cat wouldn’t wake up anytime soon, and suddenly seemed to think of something, swift as the wind, running like a gray tornado to the study door.
He stopped just in time, hearing voices from inside, His father’s voice.
As always gentle, but with added joy.
“Do you like it?”
“I think this looks quite good. Haha.”
“But wait a bit more, it’s not quite perfect yet. Thinking about it, I seem to have never made anything for you.”
What was Father talking about? The gray cat quietly pushed open the door, peeking through the crack.
Only saw the big golden tiger lazily lying down, letting His father lean on His belly.
Father turned, facing away from Him, seemingly creating something, with traces of magical energy in the air, and silver light flowing from His hands.
A bit dazzling. What was this?
The gray cat fixed its gaze and was instantly shocked in its heart – it was actually a big silver chain, and Father was making a big silver chain for Big Brother!
This, this…!!
The silver chain jingled loudly, extremely eye-catching! And upon careful observation, the ground was full of failed silver chains. It seemed he had been making them for a long time, now striving for perfection, determined to create the most suitable big silver chain for His big brother.
Witnessing this scene, the gray cat was about to cry, mentally crying out, “Meow, Big Brother is so loved by Father! I want a silver chain too, meow!”
If the gray cat were in human form, it might have crushed its teeth at this moment. It forgot that it also had several items from its father’s craftsmanship, such as the small bell hanging around its neck.
Sometimes, a child’s jealousy was this simple, even a bit absurd.
However, the gray cat was deeply immersed and could not possibly self-reflect.
To be honest, before Big Brother’s return, the gray cat did not deeply understand the issue of “Big Brother returning and occupying their space”. It thought Aelioge, Botis, and others were making a big fuss. How could they say there was no space? Big Brother would not be so domineering.
However, after seeing it with its own eyes, the gray cat dared to say that it was even worse than expected – Big Brother was indeed that domineering!
Indeed, after eight thousand years of being lost and then found again, it would be strange if the reaction were not intense…
The gray cat boldly recorded this scene and instantly sent it to Marbas.
A few minutes later, Marbas switched avatar, thinking there was new information from Inpos, but upon seeing the “tiger absorbing human” image, its eyes nearly split open. “Goodness!”
Big, Big Brother, how could you do this!
Marbas could not bear it and forwarded the video to all demons.
At this moment, on the eighth layer of the Infinite Trial, Aelioge was engaged in a life-and-death struggle with an ultimate existence.
Facing a god-demon with power a level higher than his own, Aelioge analyzed calmly and responded composedly. Although initially taking many losses, after fighting for several hours, He gradually gained the upper hand. According to this momentum, victory would be His within about three hours.
But at this moment, Marbas sent a small video without any sense of timing.
“What the hell, can’t you see I’m fighting? What if it disrupts the battle?” Aelioge felt speechless, slashed the opposing god with a sword, and casually opened the video.
Then the next second, Aelioge froze, revealing a massive flaw. The opposing god seized this opportunity, launching a series of attacks that sent Aelioge down to negative twenty-something layers. The battle’s aftermath tore the earth and distorted space and rules.
he laughed, “Haha, using me as a trial? Hmph, is this all the strength you have?”
But he had only been triumphant for a few seconds when the corner of his mouth instantly froze.
From the bottom of the deep pit, a terrifyingly powerful demonic energy suddenly erupted. The strong and distorted battle impulse shot straight to the blue sky, and a terrifying energy wave instantly exploded in His face.
In just an instant, He had no time to react. In one moment, the erupting Aelioge chopped off His head, then madly hacked it hundreds of times, instantly mincing it into powder!
He lost? He actually lost like this?
He could not understand, and even less could he understand that the other seemed to be venting anger, not caring at all about what He was or what His mood was, directly roaring, “I do not allow it! That position is mine!”
This war god was elegant yet crazy, his demonic power surging – who would have thought that a video scene would “inspire” Him.
On the other side of the Infinite Trial.
Beelzebub saw Aelioge’s movement from afar and did not understand internally. What was Aelioge’s situation? Why suddenly go crazy? Why so excited?
Beelzebub was a truly elegant demon who remained calm and never broke down in any situation.
However, after seeing the video Marbas sent and opening it to look, He erupted exactly like Aelioge.
“Big Brother, you sent us here to occupy Father, right!”
“Ah ah ah, I must become stronger, I must kill my way out of the Infinite Trial!”
Beelzebub’s destruction authority frantically exploded uncontrollably, catching several nearby giant trolls off guard.
Not far away.
“Huh? What’s their situation? Why did they suddenly become angry?”
Vassago was bewildered. However, after watching Marbas’s video, His mind power almost went berserk, wanting to kill massively, and only calmed down after a long time, whispering, “Although I had anticipated…”
No matter what, They must break through the Infinite Trial!
Various places in the Infinite Trial were experiencing consecutive massive eruptions.
These Abyss Lords seemed to have been simultaneously angered by the same thing. Even Abyss Lords who were previously not very motivated about leveling up suddenly became ambitious.
Bachin said faintly, “It’s indeed not okay without me at home. I must quickly return home and rescue Father from under that wild and savage big tiger.”
Among all demons, Botis had the most intense reaction, directly exploding, causing an immediate massive explosion, with demonic power and authority going completely crazy.
“Damn Big Brother, arbitrarily occupying Father while we’re not around.”
“I knew it! We should never have let Big Brother see Father!”
Demons strongly protested, all scrambling for the hope of returning home!
Botis could not hold back and posted in the mutual help group, “Why hasn’t Big Brother gone to the God of the Universe? Doesn’t He care about the universe’s peace? Ah, I’m going crazy, I also want to go home and stick close to Father!”
If other demons said such things, they would probably have no objections. However, this was Botis, a super-extreme toxic daddy’s son, a combat machine among father-obsessed demons!
Even Beelzebub could not help but call Him a pervert. If one demon had to be left behind, He would definitely choose Botis.
Undoubtedly, the video caused a huge uproar, causing Them to remain unsettled for a long time and making Their blood boil, filled with strong rebellious impulses.
There were exceptions among the demons, such as Valefor and Barbatos.
Valefor had seen it so often that She did not feel the interaction was any different from before. Wasn’t Big Brother always like this with Father?
Barbatos also said, “It’s a matter of timing. They were exiled here and already harbored anger. Now they’ve found a breaking point and can no longer hold back.”
Valefor smiled and turned to look at Barbatos, “Do you think it’s a good thing?”
Barbatos pondered. “It depends. I’m quite looking forward to seeing everyone grow.”
“Haha, me too.”
Valefor gave a faint smile, her gaze returning to the video, with a complex look in Her eyes.
But no matter what, She was happy for Big Brother. She had too many reasons to thank Him. In the past, Big Brother had saved Her countless times, helped Her level up, protected Her, and guided Her.
She was not the only demon enjoying this treatment. All demons were the same. Big Brother was their guardian god, the object of Their worship and admiration, and also the demon among Them who bore the most and carried the most burden.
As younger demon brothers and sisters who had been helped throughout their lives, how could They quarrel with Big Brother over such trivial matters?
Valefor thought rationally but also understood the irrational reasons of those demons.
“After all, it concerns the things They care about most. Whether big or small, to Them, it’s a matter of utmost importance.”
A calm voice came from behind Valefor.
Valefor knew without turning that it was Paimon.
Paimon walked slowly to Her side, with heroic eyebrows, the entire demon looking like an unsheathed precious sword, sharp and piercing.
Valefor turned her eyes, her gaze falling into Paimon’s eyes.
All demons knew that Paimon loved practicing martial arts and meditation, developing an extraordinarily perceptive pair of eyes.
Paimon raised Her gaze to look far away and suddenly whispered, “And, Sixth Sister, don’t You think They are quite cute like this?”
Cute?
Valefor was stunned for a moment, then understood, touching Her chin thoughtfully, “Indeed, even fools have their cuteness. Rushing forward fearlessly.”
Paimon smiled in silent agreement.
Barbatos remained calm and changed the subject, reminding, “Big sister, younger sister, we must also level up.”
Paimon narrowed Her eyes. “Of course. Since They are getting stronger, how can we not?”
“And most crucially…”
As She spoke, Her eyes became sharp and determined. “I will definitely defeat Big Brother and tell Him that He doesn’t need to be the strongest, doesn’t need to carry so much. I, we, can now carry the burden ourselves.”
Valefor and Barbatos exchanged a glance, both agreeing with Paimon.
Eight hours later, the Infinite Trial was completely turned upside down, with destruction everywhere.
Marbas took a break, standing on the cliff’s edge and blowing cold wind. Upon reopening Inpos’s private call, He discovered Inpos not only sent a video but also key intelligence from Lelagin’s mouth.
– Lelagin had seen the Creator God.
– The Creator God in Lelagin’s mouth was once a good god but for some unknown reason had become something else.
Marbas was deeply shocked, feeling this must be crucial information, and immediately turned to tell the other cat-headed demons.
The demons led by Aelioge reached a consensus on this opinion.
The Creator God indeed had some hidden schemes!
Aelioge: “Tell Inpos to ask Lelagin more. Lelagin must know something else.”
Marbas: “Inpos will do so, but Lelagin is not in a good state. Don’t pressure Him too much, in case something happens.”
Aelioge hesitated, then finally nodded, “Okay, there shouldn’t be any immediate issues. Just remind Inpos.”
The other demons had similar opinions.
The thing was, with so many demons in their family, just collecting opinions took a lot of time.
Demons were troublesome, but they were always lively.
And Marbas loved the liveliness, completely opposite to the quiet-loving Samikina.
****
On the other side, Inpos waited a whole night before receiving a reply, with a bustling message full of suggestions and reminders from different older brothers and sisters. Most were fine, except Botis, who had become so extreme as to want to rush at Big Brother.
Inpos was speechless after reading. If He were to take action, there would be no demons left outside.
He looked at the effective suggestions angrily.
However, it was now 9 AM. Their father had been sleeping later and later, with sleep that seemed either deeper or shallower, with almost no breathing sounds.
Because He knew Second Brother was guarding and accompanying Father in his dreams, Inpos had no worries. But just as Inpos thought this, he suddenly became worried.
Wasn’t it true? Father was occupied by Big Brother during the day and by Second Brother at night. How could this be? You demon brothers!
Inpos could not believe it, stretching His head out of the cat’s nest to peek at the bed.
He saw the big golden tiger softly snoring, its body rising and falling like waves, lying behind the black-haired youth, its tail firmly circling the black-haired youth. Wearing a large silver chain with a peace knot pattern around its neck, even while sleeping, the big golden tiger’s domineering presence had not decreased, and seemed even more inviolably dignified.
But this… left absolutely no space for any other cats to intervene!
The gray cat witnessing this scene hoped the cat-headed demons from the Infinite Trial would come out quickly. Otherwise, with one demon and two not-too-useful fool demons, they would never win.
****
Another place.
On the streets of the Oedipus Imperial City.
Ayni walked with a light and cheerful step, heading towards a very famous location.
“Are you going to find Mr. Yi Xiusi?”
“Yes!”
“Then be careful. I heard Mr. Yi Xiusi finally got tired of keeping cats and raised an extremely mighty big tiger.”
“Oh, is that so?”
Ayni tilted Her head, looking at the passersby in confusion. After a few seconds, She seemed to suddenly understand and told the passersby, “Not a big tiger, but a big cat cat, the big brother of all cats!”
What big cat cat? The passersby were stunned, unable to react.
Ayni smiled slightly and continued moving through the crowd.
At this moment, a cold and gloomy gaze from within the crowd kept staring at Her.
