'Shit.. So who the hell helped the Goddess of Temptation?'

***

The Goddess of Temptation was originally a rather low-ranking God. Despite temptation also coursing through God's minds, they weren't swayed as easily as humans who succumbed to enticement itself. That was one of the reasons why the Goddess of Temptation was a low-ranking God, she was only able to gain more power through worships and if people gave into temptation which included Gods.

'Damn... This is bad.'

It would mean that a high-ranking God was in cahoots with the Goddess of Temptation. But just who was working with her?

It couldn't be the Goddess of the Night, she had no reason to work with Temptation and she wasn't on good terms with her either. Then, the God of Mischief? It could be him but no one has heard from him ever since the Goddess of Temptation appeared.

Oh.

'Shit.. Don't tell me...'

Did the Goddess of Temptation take over the God of Mischief's authority? How did she even absorb it? Wait no, that woman was always insane, she could have worked with the Hunters in order to do this. The theory was a little lacking but it did explain how she quickly rose up in power and why the Hunters did have more power than before.

The God of Death sighed, he slumped back in his seat and looked outside of his window. If she did absorb the God of Mischief's authority than that means she has his abilities. That was bad, really bad.

"We'll head to the Margrave Amiable's territory."

"Margrave's territory.. That should be near the Second Hero's territory right?"

"Yes."

Deon confirmed Devilania's thoughts and retracted his hand from the map on the table. He was currently in the Corps Commander's meeting room with the other Corps Commanders. The other Corps Commanders watched Deon point to specific places in the Empire, that was where they would go to attack Eruhaben and Choi Han.

If a fight was what they wanted then he would make sure to upscale the fight to a war against them. They may be overpowered, but could they really go against the Corps Commanders and Heroes combined?

Not to mention, the Gods could also intervene in this world. Albeit it was just a bit but even if it was just a small fraction of their power, they were Gods. Gods were the strongest with Demi-Gods following behind and so on.

'I know they'll head over there first and instead of teleporting, they'll probably run there...'

They couldn't afford to teleport in this situation, Deon knew that of course, and took advantage of that fact. How did he know? Well, there was this handy thing called communicating with the Gods.

"I restricted most of their powers, they can still regenerate magic but it is slower. Of course, we can't make them fully stop since they came from another world. But since teleporting more then two people do take up a large amount of magic, this should be enough for you, right?"

'Of course, I guess I should say thank you, right?'

Deon communicated with the God of Death in his head, he opened his eyes and stared back at the map on the table. The Margrave's territory was marked red, indicating the place where they would head over first.

The plan was titled, 'Operation: Drop Out'. It was simple, Deon himself would be waiting at the Duke's house, waiting for them as the other Corps Commanders would wait near the Margrave's territory and forest to ambush the two.
