GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 955 Infinite Patience.

The blessing of the fountain of life turned into a curse on the Warrogs because the original Warrogs had their own divine ability which wasn't compatible with the law fragments of life. The fountain of life had to curse the Warrogs because even with the blessings, the tree people were of no match to them.

So the will of the plane chose a Warrog as a good champion and the demon God also wants his own champion. The future Executioner will do nicely for that position of honor.

The demon God of Carnage was aware of the existence of the Emperor but it couldn't find her. It had no hopes of finding the Executioner even though it sent out vampires to attack the surface of the plane. So this is a lucky encounter for the demon God.

It is good news but the situation also made the demon God very frustrated.

CARNAGE complained, "What do I do now? How do I get him? This is so frustrating. I shouldn't have promised that Xigger anything."

There were multiple points of attack that the Vampires used to attack the surface but they were all futile. It was the new and hopeless Xigger that helped the demon god to find the Executioner. This is why the demon God is so excited. It is also why the demon God is frustrated.

Ragnarok isn't just any Warrog. He is a relative of Xigger. Xigger made a deal with the demon God that he would do the bidding of CARNAGE. In exchange, the demon God will give him power and won't do anything to those related to him by blood.

Xigger was reluctant when he took the offering of the blood crystal. He was not a young naive boy who hadn't seen the world. He was a pack leader who had gotten to an all-time low because someone sneakily bypassed the rules to cheat him. The offering of the blood crystal came to him when he needed it the most. But that didn't mean that he wouldn't be suspicious of free power.

He knew he would probably be losing his freedom. But he made sure that what he was fighting for would be safe. It will be of no use if he has power only for his loved ones to be taken from him by the same thing that granted him that power. He might lose his power, but he made sure that the demon God would make the oath in their deal that he wouldn't go after his loved ones directly or indirectly.

The demon God of Carnage didn't think much of the promise back then. Xigger was the first Warrog that could hear him in the plane and the first race other than elves to hear him in any plane. The combination of his despair and the fragments of the law of life within him worked to make him become in tune with the demon God. It was a first and he represented an opportunity for the demon God to expand his sin into another race.

Getting access to another race within the plane would open more avenues of attacks for the demon God against the will of the plane. The safety of Xigger's useless and insignificant descendants, at that time, was a small price to pay for the demon God to get access to the Warrog race.

That was what the demon God thought back then. It turned out that one of Xigger's loved ones was not an insignificant Warrog in some backward pack. That insignificant promise has become the shackles holding back the demon God from going after Ragnarok now.

That doesn't mean the demon God is out of options. It just has to be smart about it. It can't give up because of a little technicality. Ragnarok is too good to be given up. The two of them are very compatible based on personality alone. Ragnarok will also help the demon God to resist the will of the plane. So the demon God schemed while waiting for Xigger to resurrect.

Xigger was resurrected two days after his death. That is one day later than the time it took him to resurrect after Sauron killed him. He took over the body of a fledgling and used it to recreate his body.

It was within a cave in the Underdark. He didn't do anything when he reincarnated. He just sat down on the ground and looked into the air without focusing on anything. He blacked out when Ragnarok killed him so he is just getting to sort through his emotions.

Xigger is very shocked. That's his foremost and most pertinent emotion. He can't believe what he saw. The fact that his son killed him didn't shock him. It was not a surprise to him at all. He suspected that something like that could happen when Ragnarok was rushing towards him and Sauron.

What he can't believe is what he saw Ragnarok used to attack him. The image of that black phantom jaws snapping shut on him kept playing in his mind. It is all he can see and think of.

"A penny for your thoughts?" The voice in his head interrupted his thoughts.

"Hmm? How long was I out?" He asked.

"Two days." The demon God answered.

"I see." He said then he became silent again. contemporary romance

The demon God waited patiently for him to speak. An eternal being has infinite patience. There's no need to rush Xigger. Rushing him can also be counterproductive. So the demon God waited patiently.

"Did I really see those black jaws?" Xigger asked after stewing in his thoughts for a while.

The demon God remained the ever-present companion in need. It replied, "Yeah. You did."

"What does it mean?"

The demon God chuckled. "You know what it means."

Xigger sighed. "I was hoping I was wrong."

He knows what it means. He just didn't want to accept it.

He muttered as he reminiscenced, "The jaws of doom. The Doom Chomp."
