Chapter 937: Prepare for the Last Phase

Killing General Grimm was easy. 

It wasn’t even a fight to begin with. Mark didn’t have to lift a finger to be honest. The General just toppled over and his core just exploded. 

General Grimm already has the Crimson Affliction even before Mark began spreading it. Mark planted a seed on Grimm’s core as a parting gift, knowing that one he will certainly kill him. And it did kill him. 

The poor General had no idea that he been carrying a seed of Crimson Affliction which was feeding on him for more than a year at this point. It is no surprise that he just straight up died when Mark triggered it since the seed has long since been ready. 

As the general’s corpse gradually withered where the broadcast took place, the seed that had been triggered on his body left a permanent mark on the place. 

Since the seed is a concentrated Crimson Affliction in itself, it is obvious that it would leak out once triggered. Grimm died because of the sheer density but most of the deadly poison still remained and now, it had infected the whole broadcasting area which happened to be close to the barracks. 

Some people tried to quarantine the area to keep the poison from spreading but the Crimson Affliction can’t be contained like that. It can merge with any substance it comes in contact with so isolating it would only delay the inevitable. 

However, the Crimson Affliction was last of the things that the Abyssals have to worry about currently. 

It is themselves that they have to worry about…

The General’s death was merely the trigger. It is the spark that lit up the fuse. 

The moment it exploded, it was unstoppable. The already sensitive status quo, straight up shattered and the Apocalypse descended. 

All hope was lost. Whatever’s left of the Abyssals advantage over humans just straight disappeared at this point because nobody believed that there’s still a chance for them. 

The council of the God Emperor have been thrown directly to the fire. These morons who had been living a lavish life by siphoning as much resources as they could from their people had no idea how to handle the responsibilities that were suddenly given to them. 

With General Grimm gone, there’s no cover left for them anymore. They’ve tried out methods on how to avoid their precarious situation but they failed.

They tried exerting their prestige and reputation over their people but nobody was having it. They were met with harsh criticisms and some even directly attacked them. The skirmish was large and destructive enough that they have to flee from their homes. 

They’ve tried bribing humans as well, promising endless amounts of riches in exchange of letting them go. It seemingly worked at first but the moment humans got their treasures, they began attacking them as well. In fact, they were relentless enough to leave them severely injured but they did manage to escape in the end.



It was really hopeless. Try as they might but there’s no escaping their fate. They will either die in the hands of Humans or their own people. Neither is something they want but its their only options left. 

It’s safe to say that the Abyssals are now comparable to a headless chicken. 

They have no leader in this war. Everybody’s going to die. The worst part is that, they knew that it’s their fault. They were asking for this, therefore it manifested. 

They should’ve seen it coming already. They’re a conquering race, while they might be strong, there might come a day when they will meet their match. They should’ve been prepared for it. 

Unfortunately, they’ve been too drunk in power, glory and wealth that they’ve stopped caring. Now, it came back to bite them in the ass. Their suffering is something they caused to themselves. 

Paradise is in chaos. Every single day that passed deteriorated its condition even further. 

There were explosions everywhere. Abyssals are screaming, dying, crying out for help, begging for their God Emperor to come and so on. 

The strange thing is that, Humanity never really did anything to cause these recent developments. Mark killing General Grimm wrapped up their invasion for now. Most of the humans who infiltrated Paradise left already and this includes the Dawn Council members. 

Everything that occurred past that point was all due to the actions of the Abyssals. 

Since everybody is desperate, their ugly heads started rearing out. The lack of food, security, safety and hope had caused Paradise to burst in to flames, only metaphorically of course. 

As for the Humans, well they won’t be needing to do anything for a good while. 

Their enemies will take an absurdly long time before they can even start recovering. That’s enough time to prepare for the final phase of the plan to dismantle Paradise and eradicate the Abyssal Race. 

For now though, those who participated in the infiltration are getting the rest they deserved. 

There’s no need to rush this. Paradise won’t run away. 

Even if they could technically warp away using the Forbidden Ultima Core’s function, it wouldn’t work since they need the God Emperor for that and he’s trapped. 

Sure, some of the smarter Abyssals might entertain the idea of rigging the core but that’s risking it too far. The core is too volatile. One wrong move and everything will explode into pieces. 

And because of Raven’s paranoia, he made sure that not even one Abyssal will get out here alive so he set up a massive formation that enclosed around Divine Realm and Paradise Realm effectively trapping the two into a forced confrontation. 

Well, humanity can get out if they lost since Raven made a way out for them but the Abyssals will remain here even if they won because of the trap. 

Raven truly pulled out all stops to ensure their victory as much as possible. The long yet intricate plan was crafted to completely dismantle their enemies in small and manageable pieces. 

With the Abyssals effectively crippled in all fronts, Humanity have a wider breathing room. If they still failed even after this, then all they could say is they deserved it. 

What comes after this is the final confrontation between the armies. Luna had already relayed her command.

Within 6 months, they will war an all out war. This time, it will be a direct confrontation. There’s no need to resort to schemes anymore. All that’s left to do is to cleanse this tumor once and for all.

Without the Abyssals, Divine Realm and the Outer Worlds will restore it’s peace and serenity.

The final battle is upon them. 

Everyone was doing their best to prepare for this. Those who needed rest are currently resting. Those who needs to finish some things and finishing them now. 

This is a point of no return. Whatever happens after this will decide their future. If they want to retain the beauty and prosperity of their home, they need to fight. 

Anxiety and anticipation filled them. They are so close to victory. A splendid victory at that too. The jitters are starting because they are doing so well right now. But this isn’t anytime to hesitate.

As for Raven himself, well he’s still amused with the God Emperor. 

He has to say, this situation was completely different from what it was like from his previous life. 

Back then, he wouldn’t even dare to slight the God Emperor since he’s too powerful for him to handle but now…

Looking at Paradise, a sense of irony filled his heart. 

He saw those desolated streets. The ill and dying Abyssals. The horrible atmosphere and dreadful situation they’re in. 

It’s funny how the tables have turned this time around. 

The situation of the Abyssals right now was the same one they brought to Humanity in his previous life. He personally saw how it all happened. He suffered from it greatly too. 





Although this plan was something that he specifically crafted to bring down the Abyssals, in truth it is more of a payback more than anything. 

Although the Abyssals of today never knew what they did to Humanity in his previous life, Raven still chose to make them suffer tremendously. 

Even with him living a completely new life, the hatred of his past life never left. It stayed and left a deep scar on him. It is through the very same scar that he vowed to eradicate them in the most painful way possible. 

Raven already showed enough mercy to them. He had given the God Emperor a choice to retreat. Had he chosen to comply, Raven would’ve let them go to be completely honest. 

He would’ve just permanently seal Divine Realm away from the Outer Worlds so that the Abyssals will never discover where they are ever again. 

But of course, he knew that isn’t possible to happen. The Abyssals are way too arrogant to do something like that. 

This is why Raven didn’t hold back. They wanted to destroy Humanity so there’s no reason for him to suppress his cruelty. Let them have what they want. 

The final battle shall decide everything once and for all.
