Arcanum: Chaos Path

Chapter 484 Demon Lord
Although he spoke with great confidence, as a cautious person at heart, the sun god did not actually try to ascend to godhood immediately after his resurrection.

Before attempting the promotion, the Sun God spent some time making arrangements to ensure that even if another unexpected event occurred, things wouldn't go awry.

Now that the Sun God has been resurrected, resurrecting Sasriel is naturally a feasible task for Rolin. After all, the Sun God and the true creator are readily available as the raw materials for synthesis, and Rolin has the experience of resurrecting the Sun God. He quickly followed suit and resurrected Sasriel.

However, because the Sequence 1 characteristics reside with the true creator, Sasriel only reached the Sequence 2 level after his resurrection.

Rolin didn't care about this, after all, he didn't value Sasliel's rank; what he valued was the Heavenly Kingdom Vice-King's outstanding ability to handle official affairs.

After doing all this, while the Sun God was preparing for his ascension, Rolin took the time to visit Fabti.

At that time, the Demon Lord was holed up in his lair, and his aura was unstable, indicating that he was in very poor condition.

“You’ve come.” Fabti looked up at Roland, then his gaze fell on Medici, who seemed nonchalant but was actually wary, beside Roland. He wasn’t surprised, but just curled the corner of his mouth and said, “I heard that the Sun God has been resurrected. Medici, I’m really surprised that you’re not still hanging around that savior.”

The resurrection of the sun god was no small event, so it was hardly a secret.

Medici glanced at him and immediately spoke in a sarcastic tone: "It's more surprising that you're still alive, Fabti. I thought you died thousands of years ago."

Clearly, Medici and Fabti do not have a good relationship.

"There's nothing I can do. I'm just lucky to have survived until now. I can't compare to you, who died once but still managed to find a backer and take off again." Fabuti said this with considerable emotion. It wasn't entirely sarcastic; in fact, he genuinely never expected to see Medici become a god one day.

"What, are you envious?" Medici crossed his arms, his tone carrying a hint of smugness.

“No, not at all.” Fabti shook his head, his gaze returning to Rolin. After meeting Rolin’s eyes, which were clearly watching a show, he said bluntly, “Actually, I don’t believe you.”

“Yes, that’s normal.” Luo Lin nodded without any surprise and smiled, “After all, I know exactly what my true nature is, so it’s perfectly normal that you don’t believe me.”

Fabti was clearly surprised by Roland's candidness. He paused for a moment before continuing, "But everyone else chose to believe in you: the Sun God, Mr. Door, the Goddess of Night..."

Fabti recited the names of the dishes, and finally looked at Rolin and said, "Although I don't get along with them, I know very well what kind of people they are. They chose to believe in you, and I can only hope that their choice is correct and will not drag this world into another abyss."

Hearing this, Roland chuckled and looked at Fabuti with great interest, asking, "What if they're wrong?"

Fabti met his gaze and said, "They will pay the price for their mistakes, they will do everything in their power to make amends. And I..."

Fabuti curled the corners of his mouth at this point, his smile somewhat arrogant and crazy, and said, "I'll probably choose to give you a big one? Although it may not be able to seriously damage you, at least I'll have tried."

"Good mental state, keep it up." Roland chuckled softly, looking at Fabuti, "But you don't need to save your ultimate move for me. I'm a good kid who never destroys the world!"

Fabti remained noncommittal.

“I think I know what kind of person you are. Someone like you probably wouldn’t risk your life for me…” Rowling continued with a smile, “Fortunately, I’m not one to hesitate to do some charity work now and then. Even though you’re not willing to work for me, I’m still willing to give you a hand.”

"No thanks. I understand that free things are often the most expensive. Just name your price!" Fabuti shook his head and looked at Rolin.

"How cautious!" Roland glanced at Him, not caring about His attitude, and said with a smile, "Alright, since you don't want to accept free treatment, then I'll state my conditions."

Lorin and Fabuti exchanged glances, and Lorin said, "How about severely injuring an Outer God?" Fabuti frowned. It wasn't that he thought the task was too difficult, but rather that Lorin's condition was exactly what he had originally planned to do.

"Don't overthink it. There's nothing about you that I'm interested in. The only thing that catches my eye is your determination to give the Outer Gods a big surprise," Roland said with a smile.

"So consider this an investment I'm making so that you can better cripple the Outer God!"

Fabti gave him a deep look, and finally didn't refuse again, but simply asked, "How will you help me?"

……

When it comes to cleaning up the pollution from the Outer Gods, Rolin is undoubtedly an old hand at it, and he quickly resolved the pollution from the Mother Tree on Fabuti.

After the pollution was resolved, Fabuti, who was receiving this treatment for the first time, remained silent for a long time before suddenly saying, "I originally thought that if they lost the gamble, the world would still have a chance. Now I realize that if they really trusted the wrong people, the world will probably have no chance at all."

Clearly, Fabuti had realized some of the essence of Rolin's treatment, such as the fact that the patients could be manipulated by Rolin to some extent.

"Be confident. Even without this, you wouldn't have won. Destroying the world is a piece of cake for me." Roland said with a smile, uttering these extraordinary words, and then added:

"But be thankful, thankful that their efforts have paid off. I have invested too much emotion in this world, so you will not lose."

……

After resolving the Fabti issue, Rolin found himself with nothing to do for a while, since many things had already been resolved and there was nothing more he could do to help with the rest.

Unfortunately, everyone was too busy to have time to entertain Rowling.

As for going to the Republic to keep Sasliel company while he works overtime, sorry, Rowling is just relatively free, not that he's lost his mind.

So, bored out of his mind, while his main body continued to study the power of the Outer Gods and his main account read books to fill his knowledge, Luo Lin decided to use his alternate account to harass the Celestial Master in the Western Continent.

"My teacher has resurrected the Sun God. I wonder if you've sensed anything like it over there?"

Luo Lin wrote the following on the bamboo slips.

The Western Continent did not respond immediately, but only after a while did they reply:
“We did indeed sense something here. We never expected it to be such a fortunate event. Fellow Daoist, your actions are truly a joy for all living beings and your merits are immeasurable.”

Rowling curled the corner of his mouth slightly and continued writing:

"If nothing unexpected happens, Bethel will soon ascend to the position of Lord of Mysteries, and the Sun God will become a true God. At that time, we may start the final battle against the Outer Gods ahead of schedule. How are your preparations going?"

Perhaps taken aback by the amount of information in Luo Lin's words, or perhaps still organizing their thoughts, the people on the Western Continent didn't reply immediately, only saying after a long while:
"If God and the Lord of Mysteries are truly born, we are ready to cooperate with you to start the war ahead of time."

Clearly, the Western Continent is also preparing for the apocalypse.
