Chapter 840: Let's Have a War Game!

Regarding how to deal with Dionysus, Broly already had an idea in mind.

But before that, there was something he cared about more.

"Miss Filvis, are you alright?"

Broly stepped forward, and together with Lefiya, helped the White Shrine Maiden who had collapsed on the ground to her feet.

A miserable smile appeared on Filvis's face.

After becoming a monster, she had thought she was tolerated and cherished by the Main God, but now discovered she was merely being used.

Because of the Corrupted Fairy Spirit's control, she couldn't actively commit suicide, but that didn't mean she couldn't seek death.

As long as she actively sought death while executing some of the Corrupted Fairy Spirit's orders, her life could obtain liberation.

But she believed Dionysus's words, and regarding her twisted life form, the thought of clinging to a wretched existence was born, so she proceeded on the path of doing evil and falling, creating the infamous reputation of the 'Banshee', and behind this infamy were many innocent Adventurers who died by her hand.

Having prepared herself to expose her filthy past, the result was that it was exposed, but she discovered she was a thoroughly used piece of stupid goods.

This fact made the White Shrine Maiden unable to hold back her tears; Broly embraced her, and the clothes on his chest were quickly soaked by the elf's tears.

Although Filvis was not a Capture target acknowledged by the Crystal Palace, nor had she joined the Crystal Palace with the status of an External Wife.

The other party's emotional sadness would not affect him in the Happiness Points Aspect at all, but the private relationship above friendship still made Broly feel a bit of heartache for this elf.

"Filvis, it's okay, the Six-Ring Spell Formula was activated by your Main God, not by you; even taking ten thousand steps back, even if it was you who activated it, hasn't it already been perfectly resolved? Just stop being sad."

The Evil Dragon was killed, the Spell Chanting disappeared, this plot to destroy Orario was completely dissolved into nothingness; Broly stroked the elf's head, attempting to comfort her.

"That's right, Miss Filvis."

Lefiya also chimed in from the side to comfort her.

"Now, you already know my situation, so why are you still treating me this well?"

Filvis gradually reined in her loss of composure, raised her head to look at the two, and asked.

"Aren't we best friends?"

"You already agreed to become my External Wife."

Lefiya and Broly gave different answers.

"But I've done many bad things, before knowing you, I killed many Adventurers.

A filthy fellow like me with innocent blood on my hands, can I really be treated so gently by you?"

Lefiya froze; she truly hadn't thought about this kind of problem.

"So, is this the reason you didn't directly agree to become my Wife?"

Broly asked her instead.

"Mhm."

Filvis did not deny it; she was previously worried that after everything was exposed, Broly would change his opinion of her.

Therefore, she did not agree to join the Crystal Palace; of course, she also felt her true self was fundamentally unworthy of becoming the youth's Wife.

After all, the others in Broly's Harem basically had nothing to do with indiscriminate killing of innocents or evil-doers; only she could be linked to that.

"Filvis, let me ask you a question: those Adventurers you killed, do I know them?"

Knowing Filvis's true thoughts, Broly thought for a moment and asked.

"I don't know them."

The White Shrine Maiden shook her head and answered.

"Since I don't know them, what does your killing have to do with me?"

"But my hands are stained with innocent blood, I am the true Banshee, that is my true face————"

"Is there not a possibility that the innocent blood on my hands is more than yours, and my current epithet is still Demon King?"

Broly didn't keep count of how many people he had killed, but he could be certain the quantity was absolutely not small.

Among the so many people who died by his hand, there were many who deserved death, but innocent people should not be few either.

Those people might have been caught in the aftermath of Energy Bullets he casually fired, just like a person holding insecticide killing some visible pests, accidentally wiping out ordinary insects nearby that posed no hazard.

Broly would not actively kill Ordinary People, but he also didn't care much about Ordinary People he accidentally killed; right now he was using his own situation to comfort the White Shrine Maiden who was conflicted about her hands being stained with innocent blood, telling her that this Saiyan was no righteous person, no person of noble character.

"You worry that I would dislike you for having innocent blood on your hands, yet you don't know if you would dislike me, who has even more innocent blood on my hands?"

As Broly spoke, he released the White Shrine Maiden, took a step back, spread his hands, opened his embrace, and waited for Filvis's answer.

"How could I possibly dislike you————"

Filvis directly stepped forward, opened her arms, and embraced the Saiyan youth's body; the posture of throwing herself into his arms had a feeling of a swallow returning to the forest.

"Then Filvis, are you willing to become my Wife?"

"Yes, I am willing."

"Good, then no matter what identity or past you had before, from now on you have only one identity: my Wife, and there will only be one future: the future leading to happiness."

Filvis was held up like a child; before the eyes of everyone around, Broly kissed the White Shrine Maiden's lips, kissing until her face reddened, kissing until she gasped for breath, kissing until she gradually enjoyed the happiness he brought her in this moment.

Dionysus had already stood up, watching the two kissing beside them, his expression flat, making it impossible to know what he was thinking.

The matter concluded, Broly and the others brought this mastermind God back to the Surface.

"To think it was that guy Dionysus, plotting the destruction of Orario; when I saw his gentle and refined appearance in the Lower World, I thought he had been changed by the Lower World's children, but now it seems that guy's character is still the same as in the Heavenly Realm, cunning and full of twists————"

Upon learning of Dionysus's matter, Loki couldn't help but sigh; she and the other party were birds of a feather, Scheming Gods in the Heavenly Realm, stirring up trouble without fear of making things big; many slaughters and struggles between Gods were actually instigated by them in the dark.

"Lord Uranus, what punishment will God Dionysus be subjected to?"

"Attempting to subvert Orario, after the Gods convene, they should impose the death penalty on him."

Orario has three types of punishments for Gods: the lightest is expulsion, the heavier is sending them back to the Heavenly Realm alive, the heaviest is making them die and return, which requires a long time before they can revive again.

Dionysus's act of wanting to destroy Orario is to leave the Gods of Orario with nothing to play with, and lose the important children by their sides, and even the Gods themselves might be swept away in one wave; the punishment for him is absolutely the heaviest.

However, Dionysus made Filvis sad, yet only paid the trivial price of waiting for revival, which could not satisfy Broly.

"Lord Uranus, may I participate in the judgment of God Dionysus?"

"Only a god can judge a god, but as the one who destroyed Dionysus's Orario Destruction Plan, I can grant you permission to participate in the Gods' Conference that will judge him."

"However, even with your vote added, it likely won't change the outcome of Dionysus receiving the Supreme Penalty from the Gods. If you want to save his life, I feel it would be useless."

", why would I save him?"

"Uh, aren't you on good terms with his family's child, that White Shrine Maiden? Given your personality of not letting your own people suffer losses, aren't you thinking of pleading for her sake?"

"He's the bastard who made Filvis sad. Lord Uranus, you've clearly misunderstood my meaning. I never planned to plead for him. I just want him to die more thoroughly."

"Die more thoroughly?"

Uranus frowned.

"How would that death work?"

The elderly Main God sitting on the Altar looked down at the Saiyan youth below with some confusion.

"You know about Artemis encountering the Ancient Monster Andarisi, right?"

"Mm."

"I want Dionysus to die in the mouth of that kind of monster."

"Using the Dungeon's God Assassin Magic Creature to absorb a god... that is indeed a method to thoroughly kill a god."

"However, once a god is absorbed by a monster, a terrifying monster will be born possessing god-level Combat Strength, yet unbound by the rules prohibiting gods from using Divine Power in the Lower World."

"Such a monster would likely be even stronger than the Black Dragon. Upon appearing, it would definitely bring a thorough disaster to This World."

"Although I understand your desire to vent for the White Shrine Maiden, I absolutely will not agree to this, because it might plunge This World into another kind of world-ending disaster."

Uranus expressed his negative attitude.

"What if I say that I am that monster planning to absorb him?"

Broly tore open his chest, revealing the Level 10 Demon King Crystal Core inside.

"If it's me, you shouldn't need to worry that I'll bring disaster to This World, right?"

Broly's words plunged Uranus into deep thought.

"With you, I indeed don't worry much. But how will you do it? If Dionysus detects you intend to thoroughly absorb him, he definitely won't sit and wait for death. And as long as he slightly uses his Divine Power, he can return to the Heavenly Realm."

"Yes, I'm clear on that too. So, I plan to create an environment where he also cannot return to the Heavenly Realm."

"The specifics?"

"War Game————"

"What, you want to have a War Game with me?"

"Yes, a War Game where you need to bet your own life."

"Interesting. What are the specific contents?"

"Under the witness of the Gods, conduct a slaughter between you and me."

"Hah, are you joking with me? Me, a god with no strength to truss a chicken, and you, this monster, slaughtering each other?"

"For this War Game, I can allow you to use all your power, including your Divine Power from when you were in the Heavenly Realm."

", you're serious?"

"Do I look like I'm joking with you?"

"Hahaha, I originally thought only Filvis was foolish. Didn't expect the man she fell for to be equally foolish."

"Challenging a god, and allowing the god to use full power at that. Do you even understand how strong a god capable of using Divine Power is in the Lower World?"

"Don't know. But you can describe it."

. 888

"You should have heard of the Six Ring Technique's power, right?"

"Mm. Reportedly, once activated, it can instantly raze all of Orario and the surrounding areas to the ground."

"Then, a god capable of using Divine Power, even me who is not good at Frontal Combat, can likewise easily do this in the Lower World."

"What's the limit? To what extent can you go?"

", you're unexpectedly not scared?"

"Why would I be scared? Just being able to raze an area of several dozen kilometers radius to the ground... is that supposed to be impressive?"

"Good, good, good. Looks like you're even more arrogant than I imagined. However, the Strength you've displayed does indeed give you the capital for arrogance."

Pausing a moment, Dionysus continued explaining: "As long as I'm willing, if I use all my Divine Power, I can make half the Continent beneath my feet sink into the sea with one strike."

"Mm, I understand. Then, such a 'powerful' you wants to have a War Game betting your life against me?"

"

Broly nodded, asking with a calm complexion.

"Are you seeking death?

"

"No, I just purely feel I can beat you."

"Forget it. I have no interest in killing Mortals. Even if I used Divine Power to win the War Game, after the War Game ends, I — once again prohibited from using Divine Power — would already be unable to realize my idea of changing the Lower World."

"I'd be vigilantly watched by other Gods at all times. My Familia couldn't redevelop. All my schemes to subvert the Lower World would be crushed by the Gods the moment they showed any sign."

"And a boring Lower World like this, I don't plan to stay in any longer. Returning to the Heavenly Realm is perhaps my Outcome."

""

"What if I say: if you win, I'll become your Pawn, helping you realize your plan to destroy Orario and make the Lower World into the shape you want to see?"

"?"

"Of course, if you lose, I'll absorb you in the God Assassin manner, leaving you not the slightest possibility of reviving again."

Broly once again revealed the Demon King Crystal Core inside his Body, showing it to this god who was a prisoner.

"How about it? You who like watching Lower World Mortals struggle painfully on the Edge of Despair — when you yourself might fall into that kind of desperate situation, you're scared and want to shrink back?"

"To cherish one's body when great matters are at stake, yet forget one's life at the sight of petty gain — Lord Dionysus, you wouldn't want to realize your dream, yet lack even the awareness to face death, would you?"

"You don't need to provoke me with such words. Tell me, what are the details of this War Game you want to start with me?"

"Good."

Broly laughed; as long as this guy Dionysus took the bait, he would absolutely arrange everything for him clearly.

The Gods' judgment on Dionysus had not come down; instead, the announcement of the War Game in which this Demon King Broly prepared to battle this God of Wine Dionysus stirred up a huge sensation in Orario.

A mortal killing a god with sealed Divine Power is nothing unusual, but a mortal planning to kill a god who has unlocked their Divine Power — this is the first time.

The Gods provided a Barrier Field strengthened by Divine Power; upon entering the field, the participants on both sides of the War Game will engage in a slaughter where they can use their full power.

Before a winner is completely decided, no one can shrink back and leave the Barrier Field, including Broly's death or Dionysus's return to heaven.

The condition to end the War Game is only one: one side acknowledges the other's victory, and the other side accepts their own victory as well.

In other words, if only one side admits defeat but the other side does not accept it, the War Game must continue.
