The Experimental Log of the Crazy Lich

Chapter 472: Ambition of the Traitor

Translator: imperfectluck Editor: Kurisu

When mentioning the Ocean God, people would always think of the current Ocean God, Osweyar. The world of Eich wasn’t like my previous world with ocean volume far surpassing land volume. Still, ocean volume and land volume were roughly equal in this world, meaning that people would still respect and fear the Ocean God.

Osweyar very rarely appeared in front of others. According to legends, he possessed many incarnations. If he was in a good mood, beautiful sea doves would guide lost ships and save them from the brink, but if he was in a bad mood, it was possible that a tremendous octopus would sink an entire island.

The Queen of Storms only had control over the areas near the shore and the Sea Tribes that were formerly land-based. Osweyar had full reign over the entire ocean, yet he used a laissez-faire style of ruling. Although there were many legends about him, actually useful information was incredibly little.

The fact that Osweyar had been able to stay out of countless Holy Wars, ignoring both major factions, was already the best proof of his strength. I learned from the ancient Gods in our faction that the deepest parts of the ocean were another world entirely. Various Deep Sea Tribes and Ocean Gods still resided there. Their culture was entirely separate from the land’s.

As for that mysterious and powerful Osweyar, even the previous Ocean God from his grandfather’s generation was only a former subordinate of the immemorial Ocean God Sidunwar. It was even rumored that they were relatives. When it came to seniority and past glory, not a single Main God of today would possibly compare to Sidunwar.

*Clang!*

An ice-encrusted trident viciously clanged against the ground, directly transforming large amounts of ice and snow into ice water. The Pillar of Ice even seemed to respond as it adjusted its own color. The tower’s white glow now had a blue tint within it, and the constantly falling snow became an icy torrential rainstorm.

At Sidunwar’s level, changing the natural environment around him as he attacked was only a side effect.

Something even stranger happened right after that. Many strange aquatic animals suddenly appeared in the rain. There were dolphins, whales, seals, and so on. And, even rarer deep sea monsters were suddenly mass-produced.

The typical gray-black sky in the Indifference Inferno had now been painted blue. Mysterious waves split open the sky, as if this entire world was being changed into an ocean.

“Ocean.”

Sidunwar didn’t need to say any other words. Simply saying this word out loud caused the entire world to change.

If Soul Worlds could be considered a miracle that could twist the real world, then Sidunwar’s level was basically at “I am the world.” His personal domain began expanding, causing a boundless sea to be born.

As he was one of Hell’s reinforcements, he even received much assistance from Hell itself.

One of the Four Pillars, the Tower of Ice, provided him with a limitless amount of backup support. The entire world was colored blue as the land itself was changed. The snow mountains in this Inferno were turned upside-down and turned into gigantic pools. Endless amounts of rain continued pouring down, causing the water to suddenly reach Karwenz’s knees.

Sidunwar flung his water trident yet again, transforming the water upon it into sea beasts, dolphins, sharks, and so on. The sea beasts in the air combined with the aquatic beasts already summoned, transforming into something else.

A shark beast floated in midair. It was only two meters long, yet it possessed berserk, fervor, toxic fangs, and many other auras, as if it was a supremely powerful support priest.

Another floating whale-shaped aquatic beast appeared rather delicate. Yet, it suddenly opened its mouth and sent out soundless waves that shook the entire realm. These waves were a direct attack against the soul.

These instantly constructed aquatic beasts showed off power that would surpass any ordinary powerful human individual. It was as if the powerful individuals of the immemorial Sea Tribe had been revived.

“Is that the combination of soul gifting and Creation? No, it’s only the physical actualization of memories.”

How could Sidunwar possibly possess the souls of other powerful Sea Tribe members when he was revived by himself? These were merely the shadow projections of the powerful individuals from sea monsters and the Sea Tribe that Sidunwar remembered. Yet just his personal memories of this immemorial combat strength already far surpassed the understanding of the recent generation’s powerful individuals.

Yet, after a momentary confusion, Karwenz shrugged and yawned; he seemed to be bored.

“…I thought that I would have a fun fight when I heard your name. But now, it seems that you’re not even at a Main God’s level anymore since you have to play so many little tricks.”

The moment Karwenz said this, Sidunwar paused for a brief instant in his actions. He then violently swung his trident, summoning even more sea beasts which pounced upon Karwenz, starting an all-out fight.

The immemorial Ocean God who was used to looking down on other existences felt that himself lying would be nothing more than the greatest humiliation. His silence was his tacit admittance.

Indeed, Sidunwar was no longer at a Main God’s level. In fact, he could barely count as a powerful High God now!

Back in the day, he had used a backup technique which was indeed effective. Even though he died, his Ocean Bottle managed to preserve his divine soul. And thanks to the guidance of my system, the Queen of Storm’s tremendous amount of sea-related divine power became the nutrition to revive Sidunwar’s divine soul.

However, the Queen of Storms herself was someone who had speedily become a High God, meaning that her own foundation was unstable. After this divine power was transferred and modified for Sidunwar, it was already fortunate enough that one-third of her divine power was left. In the end, the divine power given to Sidunwar was mostly only enough to allow his divine soul to move about again.

Originally, the system still had more Quests such as hunting sea beasts, searching for any sea-related God’s divine blood, and so on in order to improve and perfect the state of his revival. But obviously, there wasn’t time for that. Sidunwar’s current physical body was but a temporary one given to him by the Tower of Ice. He was far removed from his maximum power in his generation.

The very fact that he was able to battle right after reviving was because he was a fierce warrior who had reached the status of Main God through his own efforts. If he had been a novice God that speedily became powerful through belief alone, his divine power wouldn’t have even been sufficient enough to support his divine soul. He would have remained in eternal rest forever.

It would have been better if he still had any Divine Concepts remaining. Originally, he possessed Concepts such as “Ocean”, “King of all Sea Beasts”, “The Only Ruler of the Ocean”, and so on. Yet, all his Divine Concepts were stolen by others after his downfall, so right now, he didn’t have a single Divine Concept, believer, nor any territory. Yet, he just happened to have a significant amount of divine power. He completely fitted the definition of what a Chaos Evil God would be.

“Ha, Evil God Sidunwar, how pitiful…”

Karwenz really spread salt on Sidunwar’s wound with his offhand comment. And, Karwenz also dealt with the sea beasts quite easily. He didn’t even need to unsheathe his sword. All he did was simply slap with his hand and shatter the aquatic beasts constructed out of water.

Karwenz’s analysis was indeed quite accurate. If Sidunwar had been in his prime, he would have used his trident to personally fight already, forcefully bringing this to a direct fight rather than using subordinates. Why else would he use these seemingly “extravagant” tricks that actually didn’t have sufficient attack power against a Main God?

Judging from Sidunwar’s worsening expression, Karwenz had indeed hit his sore spot with that comment.

Gods were a type of existence that were bound to “Concepts”. Their Divine Concepts and teachings were restraints that bound them, but also definitions for how they existed and the foundation for spreading their Concepts. But now, since Sidunwar had lost all his Divine Concepts, he didn’t possess a single Concept, which meant that he had become the very definition of an Evil God with no foundation to speak of. If it hadn’t been for the fact that he was powerful enough, he would have likely begun to naturally disappear already.

It would have been better if he still had a physical body, but the current him was basically the living definition of a former ruler that even a dog could bully.

Any revived ancient God would always meet with such difficulties. Typically, they would lay low in the mortal plane while developing their church and expanding their believers, attempting to steal other Gods’ Divine Concepts and so on. But unfortunately for Sidunwar, he didn’t have this opportunity as he was directly dragged into battle right after reviving.

“You arrogant youngster…”

The ancient Sidunwar was roaring in anger, but the newly ascended Main God Karwenz ignored him. In fact, Karwenz even scratched his head in boredom, feeling that this was all a waste of time.

But suddenly, a voice echoed on the battlefield… Fine, I admit that I was now using an incarnation to intervene.

“How about becoming the God of the River Styx?”

Ayer’s death left an empty Divine Concept. But, I didn’t have the power to assign the Godhood of the River Styx. I was actually referring to the new River Styx, the river of souls that flowed through all of the new Hell. If Sidunwar became the new Hell God of the River Styx, he would naturally obtain the Divine Concept of “Overseer of Dead Souls”, which would help him to escape the awkwardness of being considered an Evil God.

“Have someone like myself become your personal fighter? Never!”

I confess that I didn’t exactly have good intentions. As expected, Sidunwar was an experienced veteran who instantly saw through my plan. If he agreed, while he would indeed obtain the Concept that he “greatly needed”, he would also become an official member of the Hell Gods. The very first Concept that any God obtained would be his most foundational Concept of all. It would be almost impossible to change afterwards.

“Then, are you willing to make do with becoming the only River God of all the rivers in the Land of Spring…?”

While the God in stories from my original world created Earth in seven days, countless days and months had already passed during our battle.

Above Hell, the Titans had already finished roughly connecting the continental plates. Since there were continents, then of course there would need to be an entire dimension filled with a natural cycle, with oceans, rivers, lakes, and so on… Then, of course I would have the power to give out the Divine Concept of Rivers in the Land of Spring. As for why it wasn’t an Ocean God? That was because the tattered land under construction there still didn’t have any location that could be called an ocean or sea as of yet.

I directly sent a map to Sidunwar, showing him how there were countless cracks within the continental plates, which could all be filled with rain. Once the cracks were filled with rain, this would form countless tributaries that could barely count as having a total volume similar to an ocean. Becoming the God of all the rivers in this new land would be quite compatible with Sidunwar’s powers.

Sidunwar hesitated. He knew that all water element Gods were capable of extending their Concepts. The Guardian God of a river increasing his strength and becoming an Ocean God was something that could naturally occur. If he used this Concept as his starting point, he would be able to challenge the current Ocean God in the future.

Of course, since it was almost impossible to change the first Concept that a God received, if he became the River God of the Land of Spring, he would naturally become connected to the three connected dimensions of Heaven, Land of Spring, and Hell. Although Sidunwar would no longer be directly under me in Hell, he would still be connected to me in a roundabout fashion and still somewhat count as my subordinate fighter.

However, I doubted that Sidunwar would be able to instantly figure out the connection between Hell and the Land of Spring. He probably presumed that this was the Concept of becoming a River God in another independent plane which wasn’t highly connected to me.

This was precisely my favorite negotiation tactic. First, I would give the other party a proposal that was an obvious pitfall, which they wouldn’t possibly agree to. Then, I would throw out a second proposal that seemed alright on the surface but wouldn’t be foundationally any different from the first.

And if I was seen through yet again, then I would toss out a third plan that seemed to make concessions but was actually yet another pitfall… In the end, what the other party received from me depended on their own strength… and even more on their brains.

But obviously, Sidunwar wasn’t exactly the smart type. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have lost everything and fallen so far.

Sidunwar glared at the Demon Main God who had the most inconceivable growth speed in all of history, and felt that his opponent was unfathomable. Sidunwar then glanced at the Pillar of Ice behind him, which contained the only person he cared about in the entire world. He then directly nodded and agreed without giving me the opportunity to give him my third pitfall of a plan.

“I… I agree. Although I am the ruler of the ocean, I also know that it’s a good idea to sometimes take shelter when there’s a tempest. As a leader, it’s my responsibility to temporarily bear this humiliation…”

Let’s ignore just how “tsundere” he sounded right now. Nor will I comment on just how blinding it was to see such a gigantic existence acting all tsundere. The moment that he agreed to take the Divine Concept of being the River God of the Land of Spring, the crown on his head was modified. His crown became less extravagant and more plain. His temporary body of snow and ice became more real.

And this moment, all the rivers in the Land of Spring gained a master. And, I had now scammed another powerful fighter into joining my faction.

Sidunwar successfully melded with his new Concept as power flowed within him, strengthening his bloodline. He arched his head backwards and let out a fierce roar as his body suddenly expanded. He had regained some of his lost power.

Although he was only a River God, he was now far stronger than when he was an Evil God with no Concept to speak of. Existence was power. After gaining a great deal of power, Sidunwar was just about to start fighting this “youngster” who was utterly disrespectful to his seniors, when Karwenz suddenly sheathed his sword and said something that nobody understood.

“I surrender. Brother, I suppose that you can consider this a small gift from me since I helped to force this fellow into your pitfall. Since you’re no longer so angry, how about we have a proper discussion? Perhaps we have a common enemy, such as… such as Mother Cynthia who destroyed the Mist Kingdom!”

As he said this, Karwenz’s typically casual expression now actually had fervor and delight.

“The very essence of Chaos is the unknown, unpredictable, and uncontrollable! Why call it Chaos if there’s someone controlling everything? The abyss that has its own will doesn’t deserve to be called the Chaos Abyss! It’s time, it’s time to have the abyss return to true Chaos, so we can truly be free!”
