Chapter 732 - The Frustrated Liesuotus
Chapter 732 of "MMORPG: War God, You are Invincible Again" opens with suspenseful action: Looking gruff, Liesuotus never expected to be a loli-con, frolicking with little Pudding for a... Keep going!
Looking gruff, Liesuotus never expected to be a loli-con, frolicking with little Pudding for a day until he finally managed to coax the little ancestor off to school, and then to a quiet slumber.
Liesuotus beckoned gently, and two demons, not as ferocious in appearance, emerged from the shadows and knelt, saying, "Subordinates..."
"Shut up!" Liesuotus chastised softly, "If you wake little Pudding, Iâll have no choice but to kill you!"
"Yes, yes." The two demons of Heavenly God Realm bent to Liesuotusâs scolding, desperately containing their aura, daring not to make any more sound.
Then Liesuotus instructed, "Protect her well. If anyone disrupts her rest, kill them without mercy!"
The two demons nodded, indicating they understood.
After settling little Pudding, Liesuotus left his abode with great care and headed to Akanonâs Soul Valley.
Reaching the serene banks of Soul Lake, Liesuotus said discontentedly, "Iâve only asked you one thing all these years, and youâre still giving me the runaround?"
"The runaround?" Akanon glanced at Liesuotus, "Where do you start?"
"What did you bring back to life? Is it her?!"
"Isnât it?"
Akanonâs counter left Liesuotus opening and closing his mouth, speechless.
"Itâs her, but... but itâs not her."
"Is it or isnât it!"
Confronted with Akanonâs questioning, Liesuotus admitted begrudgingly, "Itâs her, but..."
"Thatâs enough, donât disturb my rest, get lost!"
"Dammit!" Liesuotus, with his fiery temper, couldnât tolerate such words, immediately grabbing the huge club on his back and smashing it toward Soul Lake.
With Liesuotusâs massive strike, Soul Lake exploded with tremendous splashes, the wails of countless wronged souls resonating across heaven and earth.
Yet Akanon remained unperturbed, not making a single move. Even Liesuotus dared not wade into the lake, and with the limited reach of his weapon, he couldnât attack Akanon in the center.
Knowing this all too well, Liesuotus cursed, "If youâve got the guts, come out here, Iâll cripple you!"
Akanon looked disdainfully at Liesuotus, "A crude brute. I resurrected Elena for you, and you not only fail to thank me, you even demand answers."
"Elena is resurrected, but how the hell did you resurrect her in the form of a girl?!"
Faced with Liesuotusâs interrogation, Akanon remained calm, "Wait a few hundred years, and wonât she grow up?"
Liesuotus: ...
"If it really were just a matter of waiting a few hundred years, thatâd be one thing, but did you also screw up her race? Elena is a demon, a demon, not a human!"
Facing Liesuotusâs furious roars, Akanonâs expression grew even more disdainful, "Despite living with Elena for so many years, you donât even know sheâs a half-demon."
"What? Elena is a half-demon?" Liesuotus obviously didnât believe, "Iâve never heard of any half-demon; youâre definitely fooling me!"
"Thatâs why youâre merely a brute." Akanon explained, "The origin of half-demons can be traced back to our demon birthplace. Elenaâs lineage departed from the abyss at a critical time of transformation into demons, which is why they resemble demons but are fundamentally different, retaining human forms in their youth and gradually demonizing as they mature, eventually becoming top-tier demons. However, this bloodline was also ostracized by other demons, leading to their purge, and Elena was meant to be a target of that purge, but you just happened to encounter her and saved her."
Listening to Akanonâs words, Liesuotus recalled the first time he met Elena.
Back then, Liesuotus had been young and very weak. At the bottom of a valley, he found Elena close to death from sickness, and it was Liesuotus who pulled her back from the brink.
And Elena swore to serve Liesuotus for life, never to betray.
As Liesuotus grew stronger along his path, Elena became an indispensable part of his life.
"Additionally, the blood you provided me was exceedingly mixed; it was already quite difficult to isolate the portion that belonged to Eirena. Over the long years, the half of Eirenaâs soul that was of Demon nature has perished, which is why I could only resurrect a human body," Akanon interrupted the otherâs reminiscence and continued, "To bring Eirena back, I paid a great price, so donât cause trouble here. If youâre not satisfied, you should blame yourself for providing the Divine Blood to me so late."
Listening to Akanonâs reprimand, Liesuotus said no more and turned to leave.
Not long after leaving Soul Lake, a shadowy demon approached: "Are the beastly Heavenly Gods taken care of?"
Liesuotus glanced at the figure: "Why didnât you give me the Divine Blood earlier?"
The shadowy demon was taken aback and then realized what Liesuotus meant, explaining, "The Divine Blood hidden in the Endless Forest was discovered by chance. Do you think I knew where exactly your battle with the Ancestor Dragon took place?"
Liesuotus reached out to grab him, but unfortunately, the shadowy demon didnât have a physical form, and Liesuotus grasped at nothing.
At this point, the shadowy demon also grew displeased and said in a heavy tone, "I helped you find Eirena, and instead of thanking me, you blame me?!"
Liesuotus was frustrated; things werenât going as planned, and he was harboring a fire in his heart, but there was no appropriate target for his anger.
Unable to respond, Liesuotus could only leave in silence.
Since Eirenaâs spirit form was reborn but still unstable, she needed to sleep a lot to nourish herself. Therefore, Liesuotus was not in a hurry to return and went instead to the supreme plane of the abyss, the Demon Kingâs Plane.
The Demon King was once slain on his throne by a combined attack from the War God and the Lionheart God.
Archimonde, seeing the sudden arrival of Liesuotus, immediately blocked his path, "What brings you here?"
Liesuotus glared at Archimonde, "Out of my way!"
"Itâs you who should be leaving!" Archimonde bore resentment toward Liesuotus. If it hadnât been for his insistence on attacking the Endless Forest, how would Hell have been defeated by the Godâs Grace? How could the Demon King have been killed and pinned on his throne?
"Looking for death?" Liesuotusâs temper flared, and he reached for the war hammer on his back.
Archimonde, no fool, sneered, "Would you dare challenge me in my prime?"
This statement stumped Liesuotus; if he struck Archimonde now, he would indirectly admit that he had been too afraid to confront him in his heyday, and only now he was picking on him.
Liesuotus, who cared about face, reluctantly let the matter go.
"I just came to take a look at the Demon King, nothing more," Liesuotus pressed down his anger and spoke to Archimonde, "Just one glance, and then Iâll leave."
"No way!" Archimonde firmly rejected Liesuotusâs request: "This is a critical period for His Majestyâs revival. Including myself, no one can ascend the throne."
Faced with Archimondeâs refusal, Liesuotus said no more, just looking up at the towering infernal throne that soared into the clouds.
The giant throne, towering into the clouds, ceaselessly emitted streams of fiery magma.
After the death of the Demon King, the throne had fallen silent, but now, it was surrounded by countless souls. Every second, a soul was being absorbed into the throne, providing nourishment for the Demon Kingâs desiccated body.
After watching for a while, Liesuotus asked, "How much longer before he can be revived?"
"No more than a century."
A century... Liesuotus nodded and turned to leave.
Archimonde watched Liesuotusâs departing figure until it had completely disappeared, then finally let out a sigh of relief.
Truth be told, if Liesuotus had charged at the throne heedlessly, Archimonde really wouldnât have been able to stop him.
And a half an hour after Liesuotus had left, the shadowy demon leisurely appeared before Archimonde.
"Shadow Demon, we have met all your requirements. If the Demon King is not revived within a century, I, Archimonde, will kill you!"
Freshly arrived, the shadowy demon received a stern warning from Archimonde.
The shadowy demon chuckled, having previously been reprimanded by Liesuotus; now, he couldnât be bothered to deal with Archimonde, "Step aside."
Faced with the shadowy demonâs rebuke, Archimonde took a half step back; there was no choice, after all, the entire resurrection array for the Demon King had been constructed by the shadowy demon alone. Apart from him, no one else understood how the array worked.
