Chapter 520 A Performance to the Council of Gods

Alter Yale hadn’t acted before because everything was in his plans, including Lily’s breakthrough and Yale’s great grandfather’s help.

In fact, Alter Yale hadn’t followed the method that was devised to escape from the time loop because he found a loophole and exploited it.

After all, there wasn’t any active control of the God’s Punishment creating the loop, so as long as the main conditions were meet it wasn’t impossible to break the loop with a different method, but that was easier to say than to do because without Alter Yale using God’s Punishment on the Supreme God, it wouldn’t have worked.

Alter Yale was a member of the Council of Gods before his time travel, and just traveling through time couldn’t erase his qualifications. As long as he wasn’t completely killed by someone else, even after reincarnating, he wouldn’t lose the qualifications as a member of the Council of Gods.

However, the fact that he didn’t lose the qualifications didn’t mean that he could use them freely. He needed to be a God, so he needed to force himself to recover his original power despite the price he needed to pay for it, but he wouldn’t have paid a lower price by following the normal way to exit the loop, so he chose to do it as he wished instead of following something devised by someone else.

"You seem confused. Let me introduce myself first. My name is Yale Roanmad, and you tried to erase the existence of my clone, which is the same as trying to erase my existence. A mere immortal trying to erase the existence of a God is already sinful enough, but you didn’t stop there."

Yale was shocked by hearing Alter Yale because he knew that Alter Yale was lying. After all, the surname Roanmad was something that Yale rejected as soon as he left that clan, and Yale knew better than anyone else that he wasn’t Alter Yale’s clone.

However, Yale couldn’t speak, and without knowing the reason for Alter Yale’s lies, he didn’t dare to contradict him.

After all, the reason for punishment that Alter Yale had said just used that topic.

An immortal trying to erase the existence of a God was a real sin that deserved God’s Punishment but erasing Yale’s existence wouldn’t have any effect on Alter Yale, so it didn’t apply.

"I am magnanimous, and I can ignore your offense, but I can’t ignore how you defied the Council of Gods. Don’t tell me that you don’t know it because I am sure that the criminal who smuggled that item to your universe explained it to you, but not even a member of the Council of Gods can erase the existence of someone for a second time. If the first time someone’s existence is erased the person manages to regenerate, it would be impossible to erase that person again. Thus, a rule was created forbidding trying to erase someone else’s existence more than once. Now tell me, have you tried to do so?"

The Supreme God knew about that rule, but he didn’t think that he broke it until he remembered a bit the previous scene when the remains of the existence of Yale’s great grandfather appeared.

"Did that count as a second time? He was already almost erased!"

The Supreme God spoke with all his strength.

"It doesn’t count as a second time, but it is still more than once. Moreover, the item should have stopped a long time before, but you used your power to increase its strength so you can’t say that you weren’t in control."

Alter Yale was bluffing with the first point because, strictly speaking, it was a lie that erasing Yale would be erasing a God. Although if Alter Yale wanted, he could have tried to use it to punish the Supreme God since technically speaking, Yale and Alter Yale were the same person in origin, Alter Yale decided to use a reason that other members of the Council of God’s couldn’t argue.

Moreover, not all the sins had the same repercussions. Trying to erase a God would only affect the God itself so that God would be the one who would impart the punishment unless the offender was already suffering a God’s Punishment from someone else.

However, breaking general rules like the one of nor erasing someone more than once was notified to the whole Council of Gods. At that moment, the scene was being seen by almost all the Council of Gods

"This is the reason for the God’s Punishment, but I used the harshest punishment to you because you have done a lot of bad deeds in the past. Although you haven’t broken the rules, you are in a grey area that I can’t ignore. For example, owning that object to erase someone else’s existence. That item is forbidden and shouldn’t exist. However, the rules punish only those that create them and distribute them because those who receive it can always say that they didn’t know that they were receiving a forbidden object."

The smuggling of that type of objects was usually overlooked as there were Gods involved in them, so unless the objects provoked an important disturbance, most Gods would simply turn a blind eye to them.

However, no one would find strange that Alter Yale was angry with those objects after one was used to try to erase his clone and was also used for breaking a rule.

Alter Yale was acting for the members of the Council of Gods. He knew that they were seeing, and he was putting his best performance to cheat them.

After all, the members of the Council of Gods wouldn’t need too much time to start thinking about from where that member of the Council of Gods appeared.

They knew that Alter Yale was a real member, but they hadn’t seen him before, so they felt that probably he had killed a member to join.

There was only one individual among those seeing that knew that Alter Yale had been a member from a long time, or more exactly it had been a member for a long time in a different timeline that ceased to exist.

That individual was the only member of the Council of Gods that wasn’t affected by changes in the time. Thus, that individual was the only one who remembered about Alter Yale.

Of course, that individual was the one who used God’s Punishment on the universe creator.

"However, there is still more. You knew that those three ascenders were closely related to my clone, so you targeted them to prevent my clone from evading, which means that you were willing to harm ascenders that had ascended for less than twenty-four hours, which is a clear attempt to break the rules. Moreover, you made them suffer while trying to erase my clone, which is also harming them. Of course, you also tortured a whole lower universe which belonged to me since I am venerated as a God there, and you knew it. That is also something that can’t be ignored."

Although the truth was that there was only one rule clearly broken, there were several that were left to interpretation. However, it wasn’t normal that a God used God’s punishment in those cases, so Alter Yale just used them as a reason to make a harsher punishment.

At that moment, although Alter Yale’s identity was something important in the minds of all the members of the Council of Gods, they all agreed that the Supreme God deserved the harshest punishment.

Of course, that they agreed or not wouldn’t change anything, but Alter Yale didn’t want to create enemies for Yale.

"Finally, you dare to call yourself God in front of a real God. A small shit like you self-proclaiming to be a God harmed the name of Gods, so from now on you are the Supreme Garbage, and you are forbidden from using any other name."

After Alter Yale spoke, the Supreme Garbage replied with anger.

"I am the Supreme Garbage, don’t try to change my name!"

After speaking, the Supreme Garbage was without words because he used the name he didn’t want.

Alter Yale laughed.

"You don’t seem to understand this God’s Punishment. This is the harshest punishment. Your existence doesn’t belong to you anymore. If I want you to think something you will think about it, if I don’t, you won’t. You are just a puppet that it is still allowed to think and have an ego because I allow it."

The Supreme Garbage wasn’t able to acknowledge that, so he replied again.

"Just as you say, I am your puppet."

He had wanted to say the opposite, but he wasn’t able to negate what Alter said no matter how much he tried.

"Sleep. I will deal with you later."

The Supreme Garbage lost his consciousness immediately, and Alter Yale also isolated that area so the members of the Council of Gods couldn’t see anymore.

"Sorry for this, Yale. It would be a problem if those of the Council of Gods learned the truth about me."

Before Yale could speak, Alter Yale continued.

"Don’t speak; let me finish. Originally, to escape this loop I was supposed to sacrifice myself in your place, and you then will kill the Supreme God, but I didn’t like that outcome for you, so I decided to use my full power to create a chance for you. Anyway, after using my power as a God, I will also disappear, so it won’t affect the conditions to break the loop."
