Greed: All For What?

Chapter 1640: Who Is Baiting Who?



The third Tyrant said, "This is a good piece of information. I think our money was well spent."

GREED said with pride, "Of course it was well spent. I didn't decide to be a traitor just to be bad at it."

The first Tyrant did his part as the bad one. He said, "You are doing well, but you can do better. We are very interested in any news about the realm lord's plans that you hear about. Only something like that can cement your status as a traitor."

GREED appeared to have taken the bait. It said, "That is going to be difficult. As it is, no one in the realm is talking about anything related to the era of conquest. Not even to each other. All their conversation is within the virtual forum that the realm lord created. No one is allowed to speak outside of it, so I can't even overhear what they are talking about."

The two of them knew about that, so they just sighed. "Anyway, we are still open to that kind of information."

GREED suggested to them, "If you can increase the reward to a world spark, I would be willing to risk my life to figure out the realm lord's plans. If I can become a world ender, there's no need to be afraid of the realm lord."

The Tyrants considered the suggestion before agreeing. This time they truly spoke about the decision to spend a world spark. They didn't just waste time chatting about the conspiracy theory that Legion and Monarch High Heaven are one and the same.

A world spark is not something a world god can create, so they have to take this decision seriously. The problem is not finding a world spark, it is the effect it would have by giving it away to a demon god. They would be creating a world ender, after all. It is something important to consider.

This is the reaction of normal people to world enders. It is because any contact with a world ender will lead to problems that can only be solved by death.

But they are desperate, so they eventually agreed.

The second Tyrant said to GREED, "No problem. You can reach out to us through the old method. We will buy whatever news you have. If it concerns the realm lord's plans, we will buy it with a world spark."

GREED warned them before departing, "You better be prepared to bear the risk next time we meet. I don't want a repeat of the amateurish showing from earlier."

The first Tyrant struggled to hold back as it said, "Of course. We have learned just our trustworthy you are. We will give you your reward even before you ask for it."

Then the two parties went their separate ways, both happy with the outcome of the meeting. GREED went back to the high heaven realm. Then it went to its hiding spot.

As for the three that met with GREED, they went back to plan for their next invasion. It was as GREED said, they are truly desperate, and they are running out of time. If things were going well for them, they wouldn't be planning a second invasion of the high heaven realm. Instead, they would already be inside the main plane of the realm.

The truth is that they have been pushed to the wall. Their plan to fool the high heaven realm into thinking they have been defeated didn't come as a result of careful planning. They truly intended to breach the divine plane of the High Heaven realm during the first invasion. Unfortunately, the fight was dragging on for too long, and they had to try something else if they hoped to breach heaven's gate.

That's why they retreated. It was to let high heaven let down their guard before they invaded a second time with thunderous might.

However, there was no way for them to know if their plan had succeeded after withdrawing. They couldn't leave spies or scouts behind because they would be identified and killed before they got any information.

Plus, sending scouts to check out the situation will tip the high heaven realm into the fact that they haven't truly given up on invading. So they had to act as if they weren't interested in the realm of high heaven while secretly checking up on it.

It was very difficult to do because information couldn't be gotten from the Origin gods of the high heaven realm. The Origin gods of the high heaven realm knew the situation of their plane better than the invaders, but they couldn't betray the realm at all. This is an offense that will lead to their permanent death midway through committing it.

The void universe itself will condemn the Origin god who betrays their realm tree like that. No reward is worth risking it at all. It would be better for Origin gods not to intervene in the era of conquest at all. There's nothing forcing them to help their realm tree. But betraying their realm tree would be punished severely.

This situation made things difficult for the Tyrant Realm and the world gods of the high heaven realm that were helping them. Fortunately, there was a traitor in the high heaven realm. GREED asked for a high price, but the demon god delivered. Now they just have to get information about when the realm lord will be too busy to help in case of a sudden, fast, and powerful invasion of the high heaven realm. That will determine when the second invasion will start.

Unlike what most demons would think of the demon that refused to join the abyssal coalition, GREED's current base of operation is the abyss of the high heaven realm, not the Tyrant Realm.

GREED has clones in the Tyrant Realm assisting the Tyrants and sabotaging the Origin gods of high heaven realm, but it still considers the high heaven realm as its home world and where it

is safest.
