Die, princess, the devil is mine!

Lynn? Dad?
joke!

That was merely a pre-programmed sequence of events that led to the soul division recognizing its kin. Perhaps the soul division had been separated from the main soul for too long, and they were too busy to control the soul division and its container, which is why the god-king level soul division and its container slowly merged, generating a tiny bit of self-awareness.

But this tiny bit of self-awareness is meaningless. It will neither bring them any improvement nor truly pollute the divided soul. It is just a proliferation of tissue that can be easily wiped away without leaving a trace.

Just like now, as long as she banishes the divided soul of the Destruction Demon God, and the Guardian Demon God is willing, they can take over these two vessels at any time through divine descent. The divided soul that has undergone some changes can return to its original form. The consciousness that should not exist is like a flickering candle that will be extinguished with a gentle breeze... No, it will extinguish itself even without wind, because without the soul energy of the divided soul as a foundation, the nascent consciousness is nothing more than water without a source, or duckweed without roots.

Of course, now is not the time for the nascent consciousness that can truly be called "Little Yuna" to dissipate, because she does not need to take over this vessel yet, and banishing the Destruction Demon is what she needs to take seriously. Therefore, for a period of time, that consciousness will need to continue playing the role of Lynn's daughter in her place.

The situation with the guardian demon god is probably the same. It's inconvenient for her to descend now, since the divine war is in full swing. It's already difficult enough for her to find time to come down, let alone expend more power to take over the human realm ahead of time.

Neither her vessel, Little Yuna, nor her guardian demon's vessel, Little Yuri, had fully developed yet. Taking over prematurely would at most push them to level 999, and with the suppression of their soul levels, they could probably defeat ten near-gods of the same level.

In the past, although the arrival of a deity in this situation would have been a little rushed and carried some risk, there was still a 99% chance that everything would be fine.

But now that Lynn is here, they no longer need to risk their lives to have the gods descend.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Lynn, who was a near-god through the game "Miracle," and whose true god status was repeatedly manipulated by the Demon God of Destruction in collusion with certain gods, is largely unrealistic. But a near-god with a full set of royal weapons is invincible, and a true god who remains in the mortal realm is even more exceptional.

Lynn almost finished the task that originally required their personal intervention. If it weren't for the fact that the Destruction God still had a fragment of her soul in the lower realm, and they could have found a way to expel and extinguish it to severely damage the Destruction God, then these two human vessels would not have been necessary.

Their true forms are, after all, the supreme God-King and Demon-King, and it's not right to always leave their fragmented souls in the mortal realm pretending to be children.

The God-King may not have as many mortal customs, but he wouldn't be so fond of calling others "Dad"...

Therefore, the Goddess of Light truly couldn't understand why the Guardian Demon God, even in his demigod form, still treated Lynn like his own father and valued his unborn child so much.

As a god born of light, the God-King of Light is definitely not a cold-blooded, heartless god who disregards life, but can a fertilized egg really be considered a life? It seems that even in Lynn's hometown, it shouldn't be considered that way, right?

"Perhaps it's my nature... I am like you, a born god, but there are some differences. From the day I was born, I have been the supreme king of demons. I have no demon kin, no friends, only a group of demon subordinates born after me, and my mortal enemies who have been my enemies to this day..."

"Because protection is my divine name and my sacred duty, I value emotions more than ordinary demon gods."

"In this situation, I failed to protect my subordinates, causing them to die in droves, and I also failed to protect my followers, allowing them to be oppressed by the minions of the Demon God of Destruction..."

"I failed to do what I should have done, so now I don't want anyone, demon, or thing under my protection to be harmed."

"As for Lynn... the little one who's been squeezed into the corner and is trembling is his daughter. Of course I won't treat him as my father, but he is my guardian demon and has done so much for me, so naturally I have to protect his child."

The guardian demon said so much, but she didn't really explain herself clearly. No one could possibly understand what she was thinking, so we can only take her verbal responses as the basis for our judgment.

"Really? If I remember correctly, he should be my messenger of light. All his divine power of light comes from me, but his magical power is a mess, bearing the marks of everyone..."

The God of Light seemed quite bothered by the sudden outburst from the Guardian Demon God, even his eye contact became sarcastic and unfriendly.

"You know he's the one you chose, so why are you so cold to him? You dragged him all the way from that distant planet to work for you, help you reclaim your main world, and do all the good deeds under your name. He's helped you solidify so many faiths, yet you're not even willing to protect his child?"

Although the Guardian Demon God is considered a weak opponent by the Destruction Demon God, she is not really that easy to control. If the God of Light treats her with sarcasm, she can also stand up to him. Although the two of them are cooperating very closely now, they are still a god and a demon in the end, and are natural enemies.

"He helped me a lot, but I gave him a lot too. Back on Earth, he was just a rich, handsome, and successful guy. But after I brought him to the Miracle World, look at his family situation and his status now. Even if you say that everything he has now is earned through his own abilities, how did he acquire those abilities?"

“I created ‘Miracle’ myself. His strength is all thanks to me. I brought him here to work for me, but I’ve already paid him in advance. Even if we don’t mention anything else, just because I gave him an incredibly long life and diamond-like kidneys, shouldn’t he work for me for the rest of his life?”

The Guardian Demon God retorted with a look that seemed to defy her, and the God of Light, not to be outdone, retorted directly in return. She didn't care for Lynn as much as the Guardian Demon God did, but she had certainly treated him well. Everything Lynn had today was inseparable from her silent support.

Even his demon wives, who seemed to have nothing to do with her, were defeated by him with real swords and spears using the power she gave him.

"Heh... Is that so? You said 'Miracle' is your god-making plan, to fight against the Destruction Demon God camp by creating and mass-producing gods. But I don't think it's that simple, right? If... I mean if, the gods created possess true god-level combat power, you might indeed use a sea of ​​gods to overwhelm the Destruction Demon God. But if the gods created are defective, will you treat them as food, just like your former subordinates did..."

Two little girls, one on the bed and the other by the bedside, started to spark a connection just by looking at each other. Both of them were focused on the battle of gods because they had to cooperate closely to fight the enemy, so they would not say anything that might upset their allies or cause misunderstandings.

But now they are all in a demigod state, their souls are incomplete, and their minds are not quite in a state of focus, so the concerns they usually have have suddenly decreased a lot.

These questions were something the Guardian Demon God had wanted to ask the God of Light for a long time, but since her "Miracle" plan had already ended in failure, her original goals and objectives seemed less important.

But the guardian demon still wanted to know, because it concerned whether her cooperation with her could truly reach the point of complete openness and honesty.

"Lyrani, you can question my strength, say I'm too weak to defeat that Destruction guy, but you can't question my divine nature! I am a born God of Light, my heart and soul have never been tainted by a single blemish. Even if I know what this divine war is about and what it's fighting for, I would never feed on gods to replenish my diminished divine power! Nor would I create food-grade gods at the cost of countless mortals!"

The God of Light, who had previously been "friendly bantering" with the Guardian Demon God, suddenly lost his temper upon hearing this. He immediately showed his anger with a fiery glare, the kind of anger that even a combination of a small cake and candied hawthorns couldn't appease!

“I know you probably wouldn’t do such a thing, but now the tide of gods in the upper realms of the God Realm and the Demon Realm is gradually receding. The once immortal gods and demon gods can clearly see their own days of death. In extreme panic, this war of gods has started inexplicably yet logically.”

"Gods cannot stop the receding of the divine tides; they can only watch helplessly as it grows fainter and fainter, their own power and life gradually diminishing. It's still the Pantheon that produces geniuses. Since they cannot stop the loss of the divine tides worldwide, they should seize the divine tides from other gods' bodies. Divine tides in the natural environment will slowly dissipate, but divine tides that have been absorbed and refined by gods can be stored and used..."

“Once, I existed in the Demon Realm, and you existed in the God Realm. Even at the height of the war, there was still some restraint. But... now it's the era of eating gods. Every god and demon god no longer sees their enemy god as an opponent, but as food, as a means to prolong life, and as a means to maintain power…”

"They've all gone mad! Even I couldn't stop my own gods from getting involved in this gluttonous feast that no one knows for whom. They're not really wrong; they just don't want to die!"

"So when 'divine food' is so scarce and difficult to capture, if you say you can rapidly produce true gods on a large scale, everyone will question whether you're building up combat power or growing food..."

“Windsor, don’t blame me for having these concerns that might be an insult to your divinity, because I really need a clear answer from you.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the previously furious God of Light slowly calmed down. Little Yuna blinked her bulging eyes a few times and returned to calm, while her swollen cheeks deflated.

"Originally... I could have succeeded... The technological world with a low power level does have its merits. At the very least, their virtual reality technology, after I absorbed and modified it, was truly effective. I used it to build a virtual world exactly like ours, and then secretly connected and merged the two. I borrowed the settings of online games to directly digitize the power system. You don't know how easy it is to cultivate a qualified warrior after having the settings of leveling up by fighting monsters and doing quests, and the numerical experience bar. Even Saint-level powerhouses can be mass-produced with ease."

"You've seen many worlds of demon kings, but have you ever seen a world where, in just ten years, a near-god, a group of demigods, and countless peak saints have emerged from nothing?"

"If nothing unexpected happens with 'Miracle,' within a hundred years at most, the God Realm will suddenly have tens of thousands of True Gods! Although they are all just True Gods whose thoughts have been brought over by the game device, and whose real bodies are still remnants of useless otaku True Gods, they don't rely on physical output to fight the ultimate boss like the Destruction Demon God. The participation of True God thoughts and a part of false divine souls is enough. Don't underestimate these remnants of True Gods just because they are nothing but ants in front of the Demon King. But the sheer number of ants crawling out is terrifying enough. To put it bluntly, if so many True Gods jumped into her mouth without making a single move, they could stuff the Destruction Demon God to death!"

The God of Light fell silent after conveying this message through her eyes, clearly indicating that what she meant by "if nothing unexpected happens" was indeed an unexpected situation.

"What a pity. The technology you developed was stolen by Destroyer, and the technological achievements you created were almost stolen by her as well. She embezzled your virtual miracles and even 'implemented' the strongest demons into them, forcing you to destroy the new world you had built with your own hands..."

"But it's alright. At least you set a trap for that Destruction guy before he seized control of your world, taking advantage of the Demon Dragon Emperor's eagerness to make him willingly advance from the greatest enemy of the Divine World to a meal for the Hungry Gods. At least Destruction guy failed in his attempt to steal a chicken and lost some rice. Even though the chicken died after pecking at the rice, you can only say it wasn't a complete loss..."

The Guardian Demon God knew everything that happened afterward. The Destruction Demon God wasn't very good at anything else, and she was ugly, but when it came to causing destruction, she was an expert among experts.

Don't be fooled by the fact that she's best at solving everything with violence and doesn't seem to know much about technology. But when you're a demon king at her level, if you ask her to create something original, she can certainly copy it.
Just like some people on Earth who might not even be good at typing normally, but they can still "write" novels. If you ask them about the world view, plot design, character design, conflict, etc., they know nothing. But in practice, they can easily write 10,000 words a day. There's no way around it, because copying and pasting is really not difficult. Even if someone is particular, they know how to make some minor modifications, which is not difficult either.

What's more, Earth has recently produced a new gadget called... AI, I think?
