It's just for this once, but we're allowed to use the sacred altar.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian once again found himself in a room with a strange altar and filled with aura crystals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The altar lit up along with the circular formation around it. It seemed like it'd take some time to activate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian along with the others stood inside a particular circle of the formation. But he couldn't stop staring at the giant altar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'There was an altar in a level 3 abyss' castle. There is one here too. Enigma got chased by an archduke because she destroyed an altar. Just what exactly are these altars?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no idea. But for some reason, anxiety gripped his heart and his brows furrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Var's reaction, Angus rubbed the back of his head with an awkward smile. \"As I said, this is a special use, okay? We aren't supposed to use a sacred altar, but our Holy altar is gone after all. Sacred Altars practically lost their purpose.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Purpose?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian froze at his words on the inside but relaxed his brows and sighed on the outside as if he was no longer feeling uncomfortable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, Angus' words seemed to have poked a nerve as the nine contestants jumped into the discussion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're right.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's very shameful that we lost our Holy Altar, but we should use what we have. What else can we do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What can we do? Kill that bitch, of course.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They didn't even mention her name, but everyone seemed to know who they were referring to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Including Varian. 'She's chased by Demon Abyss' archduke, so…'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes. Skin her alive and hang her corpse on the castle.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We still got seven holy altars. As long as we rip her apart, they'll be safe.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The expressions of the participants seemed to calm down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, if Enigma was gone, then no one coul—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What about Dreamer…I mean, V-Varian?\" one of the participants muttered, his voice shivering to utter that dreadful name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The atmosphere of the room plummeted in an instant and Varian felt like he stepped into an ice cellar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The eyes of the participants were only filled with hatred when Enigma's name was muttered, but when 'Varian' came up, their breathing turned rough and their eyes slowly grew red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if Varian was someone that killed their parents and children and was the number one villain in their life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'…Wow.' Varian was inwardly surprised, but outwardly his breathing also turned haggard and his eyes also turned red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"T-That son of a bitch!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If not for him, we'd already end this war.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>War of Valos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Enigma would already be dead without him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That son of a bitch toyed us in the Pluto!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He even cleared up her reputation!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Enigma's Pluto Incident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As if it wasn't enough, he even found out the potion defects!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Imagine, if we were successful in the ploy, humanity's army would crumble due to side effects in a few years.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We'd have won a war without much fighting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My blood boils….If only not for that bastard!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gamma potion expo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One by one, the abyssals spat out Varian's deeds, each of which was nothing short of legendary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every time abyssals were about to succeed in a plan that would give them a complete victory, Varian showed up and ruined their plan that took years, if not decades to come close to fruition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Listening to their words, Varian also took a deep breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How many times had humans come close to extinction?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valos and Gamma potion might seem obvious, but if Enigma was killed, the secret about a traitor sovereign would be buried forever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While this sovereign might be confident in securing the artifacts and reaching the celestial rank, it's inherently a risky plan. Risky enough that failure would ensue the extinction of humanity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'They almost killed Sia…these fuckers!' A horrible killing intent shot out of Varian and filled the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gentle wind seemed to turn into sharp, icy blades and seemed to cut on their skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Angus looked at Varian and his smile turned even brighter. \"You seem to hate Varian a lot.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He mistook the killing intent to be directed at Varian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian was a bit surprised but he stiffly nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His actions also inspired the rest and filled them with courage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, they began venting their emotions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He's 18? Fucking 18? And reached level 7 in 3 months? Are you fucking kidding?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Arghhh! We need to kill this monster before it kills us!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why isn't the demon king doing anything?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did he inform this to his majesty, the emperor?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doubt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The emotions of the group were in turmoil. They went from courteous and logical to emotional and disrespectful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, they were even questioning the competence of the demon king for not asking the abyss emperor for help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mind your words.\" In the end, Angus intervened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice was so cold and sharp that everyone instinctively shut up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though he wasn't a prince candidate, he might as well be one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, there was a provision for him to challenge the winners and get into the group—but he rejected it with contempt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite not being selected, he was, after all, the second strongest in the group. So, his words carried a heavy weight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Once we learned about Varian, our king is already doing his best to convey the news to the emperor. In fact, it's the only thing he's been focused on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not for Earth's Sovereign keeping him engaged, and he stayed in the abyss, we'd get news of him screaming at the communicators every day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Trust him, he knows the gravity of the situation. He's trying his best.\" Angus said with a heavy expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then why…\" A member lowered his head with a dejected expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The situation was infinitely more dangerous than they wanted to admit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Varian could reach level 7 in 3 months, what would happen after 3 more months? After a year?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of their plans were long-term and aimed at winning without causing much damage to themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But since humanity had such a monster, they should rush everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beacuse if they didn't…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They might actually lose. And loss meant total destruction, not just for them but also for their homeland.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The situation there isn't ideal.\" Angus looked around and whispered in a low voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian perked his ears and listened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'There? The abyssal home base? The one where their emperor is residing?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"W-What happened…?\" Gulping her saliva, a female abyssal asked through chattering teeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don't know much but….those zion dogs led an attack at a critical point.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing his words, the faces of every abyssal turned gloomy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Their homeland is under attack? By whom? Zion dogs?' Varian was surprised. This trip was giving him way more information than expected. He wasn't complaining though.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't worry too much about it. His Majesty the emperor will take care of it. He's just busy.\" Angus cheered them up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The participants nodded and clenched their fists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With eyes filled with burning intensity, they said. \"Yeah. His majesty is invincible. We just need to do our job right.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah, if we get the level 7s can hunt down humans and establish our dominance in the space…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We can take down the planetoids one by one!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Once we have enough planetoids at hand, we can launch an attack on earth and damage their foundation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah! If the balance is broken, we can quickly push them to the edge!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed. What if they have Enigma? What if it's even Varian? They can't stop us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'd like Varian to try. Can he even stop us?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even we don't know the location of our princes and princesses on hunting. If not for shortage, we won't be added to the hunt. What can he do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There's no way he could stop us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian's eyes flashed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'You have no idea.'\u003C\u002Fp>",1450,"2026-06-06T07:58:30.121Z",1,"novelbin.me","7789789c4c62d5b14a4f31d898859eb6db648a951039ede10b3e7260f9f4c49c","divine-path-system-chapter-703","divine-path-system-chapter-701",1773,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdivine-path-system-cover.jpg"]
