GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 856 A Reasonable Request.



Unlike the short-sighted snake demon king of wrath, she has her sight in the wealth and not the godhoods. It is rare to encounter so much wealth. It is not easy to take it either. There are just about 100,000 planes in the entire realm. It is highly unlikely, but If all of them have rich Celestials in their divine plane and if all of them were subdued, the amount of wealth will only be able to fund 100,000 origin gods to become world gods. 

100,000 is the maximum amount of world gods that the combined wealth of all the divine planes in the realm can create. That is not nearly enough for all the origin gods of the realm of high heaven because on average, each plane has produced 1,000,000 origin gods across the tens of thousands of Origin Cycle that the realm of high heaven has existed. 

Even then, origin gods can't take on divine planes because they will be suppressed. They will need a lot of them to defeat the Celestials. The thing is that Celestials won't come out to fight enemies as long as they are not demons. Demon kings can shrug off the suppression of the divine kingdom so it is better to fight them off together. That way, the demon kings won't divide and conquer them.

But Celestials won't do that to origin gods because the suppression of their divine kingdom will render Origin gods nearly powerless. Origin gods won't be able to encounter the wealth that they have encountered today because they are not engineered predators for gods like demons are. But that doesn't make the wealth that they have encountered today to be common amongst demon kings either.

She said, "Reaper, you should share some of the loot with us. You asked us for help and we answered. We came to help you subjugate this divine plane. You wouldn't have been able to have this kind of victory if we were not around. It is undeniable that you needed us. You wouldn't have asked us for help if you didn't need us. It is only right that you appreciate us for the help that we have rendered."

She started by accusing him. Then she eased up with her request. She said, "Don't worry. We are not asking for much. We don't want the godhoods. You can keep them. Just give us another 10% of their wealth in their divine planes. We will share it amongst ourselves." 

She made a logical argument and proposed a reasonable proposal for compensation. She asked for just 10%. That will increase her share by 5%. She can get more if she cheats the demon king of wrath by seducing him with sex. Surely, 10% is not too much to ask for even if the Reaper is the cornerstone of the victory of their invasion.

It is rare that they find a plane whose information is so thoroughly known that it is like walking into a park and stealing candies from babies. The demon kings didn't attack at all. They stayed back and observed the gods. Then the Celestials came to them and everything went according to Aeternus's plan. This could have been very different had Aeternus not been here. His contribution to the success of the invasion is monumental and indisputable. 

ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm The two other demon kings could have died without his information about the weakness and strength of the Celestials which helped them to pick favorable opponents. Aeternus cut down an invasion that should take 10,000 years on average which usually ends in failure and turned it into a successful invasion in less than a year.

They should be very grateful to him. But the wealth they are talking about here can make demon gods droll. They should at least talk about getting a larger share from Aeternus before giving up. She has to try to get more or she won't feel alright at all. Besides, what does Aeternus want to do with so much wealth? He is not a demon god that wants to become a Chaos entity and neither is he an origin god that wants to build a world. I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm

He should be more open to sharing. If he wasn't so strong then she would have made the two of them attack the reaper immediately and steal from him instead of talking it out. 

Aeternus made his stance known. "You eat what you kill. That's the way this works."

He said his piece and continued with grabbing the Celestial Godhood. The succubus queen's face fell. She said all of that and he still refused. What Reaper said is the truth.

It doesn't matter that he called them to this plane. Every demon king takes what they manage to kill and nothing more than that. He didn't employ them and neither did he ask for help or a favour. They cooperated together and they will share the bounty based on the amount that they contributed.

What they did can be considered a business. The three demon kings came together and invested their power, time, and manpower in the form of soldiers. Their investment paid off so they will be paid based on the percentage of shares that they have in the business. That's how cooperation among demon kings works. 

He isn't going to pay them if their investment had failed neither is he going to reimburse them for the loss of their manpower or Celestial Godhood. So why will he pay them when the investment was a success? That's just scamming.

Their profit should be good enough for them. She knows that but she was hoping that Aeternus could be reasonable about it. He should act reasonably by trying to bribe them and making them swear oaths to keep his newfound wealth a secret.

She said with meaning. "Are you sure about that? Having too much wealth might be bad for your health. It is best you share so that you don't bite more than you can chew."
