Chapter 397: Demiurge

Demiurge

In the deep underground hall illuminated by eerie, magical lights, Demiurge stood before a sprawling table cluttered with documents, blueprints, and maps of the New World’s territories. His red glasses gleamed as he reviewed his work, his sharp mind processing a dozen plans simultaneously.

The base he currently resided in was a masterpiece of architectural and magical brilliance—an offering of Lord Alex’s immense generosity and vision. Every wall and stone within resonated with power, tailored precisely for Demiurge’s comfort and operations.

As he meticulously adjusted a minor detail on one of his plans to instigate political collapse in a nearby region, a faint shimmer crossed the room—a message spell connecting to him.

Without hesitation, Demiurge straightened and answered.

"Lord Demiurge, I am called for the regular report."

It was Solution. Loyal, competent, and utterly devoted to Lord Alex’s will.

"Tell me, Solution," Demiurge replied, his voice smooth and composed.

"Just like you predicted, Alex-sama has something big for this world. Currently, we are in the Re-Estize Kingdom with a woman called Clementine, whom Alex-sama made his first companion. She was originally from the Slane Theocracy," Solution reported crisply.

The moment Slane Theocracy was mentioned, Demiurge’s crimson eyes gleamed with interest.

Of course. The despicable Theocracy—the heart of human supremacy and vile machinations.

He had already extracted a wealth of information from the former members of the Sunlight Scripture whom He had resurrected. They had sung like canaries under his guidance, revealing their world’s political landscape.

But Solution wasn’t done.

"And on the way to Re-Estize," she continued, "Alex-sama made an inquiry about Renner Theiere Chardelon Ryle Vaiself, known as the Golden Princess."

The Golden Princess?

Demiurge’s mind raced, calling forth every detail he had memorized. Since he didn’t get any people from Re-Estize, he did not know much about Golden Princess, but he did know the common knowledge, which he got from members he captured.

"When asked why," Solution said, her tone softening slightly as if quoting directly, "he answered, ’It’s not just about her. It’s about what she can do for me. Connections, access, influence. She has the trust of the people and the royal family, but she’s cunning enough to manipulate them all. She’s the perfect entry point for everything I plan to do in this world.’"

There was a moment of silence after that.

From what the rats said, Golden Princess is kind and loveable amongst her people, so why would she....Demiurge’s thought stopped.

Demiurge’s tail twitched. His mouth curved into a slow, delighted smile.

As expected of Lord Alex.

How effortlessly he grasped the power hidden behind the mask of the "Golden Princess"! While lesser minds would be deceived by her saintly appearance, Lord Alex saw through her and recognized her true worth as a tool—or perhaps even as a kindred spirit.

The report continued.

"Alex-sama also confirmed that he will act against the Slane Theocracy, as he intends to seize the world-class item they possess," Solution concluded.

For a heartbeat, the underground hall seemed to fall into complete stillness.

World-Class Item...

Demiurge murmured the words almost reverently under his breath.

That explains everything.

He understood now—why Lord Alex was taking an aggressive stance here when, in other worlds, he had chosen political maneuvering, subtlety, patience. This world was different.

It was because the World-Class Items—the apex of magical artifacts from Yggdrasil—existed here.

In the other worlds they had visited, none had presented such treasures. Thus, Lord Alex had acted slowly and carefully, reshaping them at his leisure.

But here...

This world dared to hold objects of such unimaginable power. Objects that could potentially threaten even a supreme being like Alex-sama.

The implications were profound.

If the Slane Theocracy possessed a world-class item, it was possible others did too.

Thus, a swift, decisive campaign was not just preferable—it was necessary. Before any fools realized what kind of god walked among them.

Demiurge’s mind spun into action.

Of course, Lord Alex had already foreseen this. He must have known that the world-class items could create unpredictable variables. He must have decided that subtle manipulation would not suffice here. Thus, he prepared to strike swiftly—to remove threats before they could even think of opposing him.

Not only that, but his interest in the Golden Princess was part of the grand design.

By bringing her under his control, Alex-sama would gain direct influence over Re-Estize, destabilizing it from within. With the kingdom in disarray, no unified resistance could rise. The Slane Theocracy would be isolated. Easy prey.

And from there... the rest of the world would follow.

Demiurge shivered with admiration.

How far-sighted. How profound. How utterly magnificent!

And even now, he suspected he was only seeing the barest glimpse of Lord Alex’s grand design. There were likely layers upon layers of deeper schemes at play.

Lord Alex wasn’t simply conquering this world.

He was reshaping it.

No, perhaps not just this world—but all worlds they visited, each one becoming another jewel in the crown of his boundless empire.

Yes, yes. It all made sense now.

Demiurge pressed a hand to his chest and bowed deeply, even though Lord Alex was not present.

"Your will shall be done, my Lord," he whispered fervently.
