The Heavenly Demon scanned his surroundings with blazing eyes and a disgusted expression. 'What a mess.'

'Mm? Such a mess.'

Uranus, Metatron, and Baal straightened their backs. They looked away to avoid meeting the Heavenly Demon's gaze. Sweat beaded on their foreheads.

It was a strange sight. Uranus was as hot-tempered as Kronos, so his nervousness was an awkward sight to witness. The same went for Metatron and Baal, who were the greatest beings who had earned the fear and admiration of many gods and demons. It was no exaggeration to say they were the leaders that represented all gods and demons. At the tea party, they were the hidden rulers who controlled the fate of the heavenly world, but they were afraid of the Heavenly Demon.

'I knew the Heavenly Demon was amazing, but this is''

They had betrayed the Black King because they were fearful of him, but there was no point in switching to Day if the Heavenly Demon was just as scary.

'Or maybe not. Despite the similarities, the Heavenly Demon is still slightly different from the Black King.'

There was a slight difference between the beings. Their fear towards the Black King was like a deep abyss that made death seem like nothing, but what they felt towards the Heavenly Demon was'

'It feels like standing in front of an angry neighborhood bully.' Yeon-woo thought it was similar to the fear when a bully stole money from you and threatened to beat you up if they found any penny on you, then they went on to discover that you were hiding fifty dollars in your shoe. Perhaps that wasn't the most appropriate description for the emperor-level Heavenly Demon, but that was how Uranus and the others' fear looked right now to Yeon-woo.

Dazed, Yeon-woo found it almost impossible for the three beings who led the Day to even make such faces. At the same time, he did feel the difference between their power and the Heavenly Demon's power that made no space for them to defy him.

The Resident of the Border, who had just been fighting wildly, was still. He just looked at the Heavenly Demon quietly. The expansion of the Night continued, but it had slowed down. It was probably difficult for them to make any rash movements since the very creature who had stuck the Black King in emptiness was here. A single misstep on their part would end everything.

The atmosphere was tense and full of fear, but the Heavenly Demon either didn't know about it or didn't care as he called for someone while looking at the Night. 'Hey, Baal.'

'Y-Yes!' Baal stood up straighter. His face was paler than before.

'Are you really gonna do things like this?'

'I will do better!'

'I told you to keep an eye on them, didn't I?'

'Y-Yes, you did!'

'But you dared to look away? Things have been relaxed around here since I haven't been paying attention, eh?'

'N-No, sir!'

'What do you mean, 'no'?'

'I didn't look away!'

'Then what are those cookie crumbs around your mouth?'

''!' Baal quickly brushed the cookie crumbs away from his mouth.

The Heavenly Demon frowned. 'You're all so lazy. Why can't you do anything properly? I'm already tired enough because of my wife's nagging.'

The Heavenly Demon sighed. 'First.' He slowly looked up again. 'We'll get started after putting those things back in their places.'

When the Heavenly Demon's eyes flashed, the Resident of the Border felt danger and quickly retreated.

Flash! The Heavenly Demon appeared where the Resident of the Border had just been. He swung his Ruyi Bang with an annoyed expression. Space was pushed back and intense shock waves rippled across the battlefield. However, to Yeon-woo, it looked as if the Ruyi Bang was breaking the flow of laws hidden beyond space.

No, it seemed like the principles in the world were focused around the Heavenly Demon. The flow of the world and the dimensions were changing. The Heavenly Demon was in the center of the universe, with the world of order being reconstructed around him. He was the core of the entire universe and the starting point of all laws of order. It was breathtaking to watch the world spinning around a single person.

Boom! The Resident of the Border was blown away, unable to withstand the shock waves. The creature that Uranus, Metatron, and Baal had to simultaneously fight against was swept away like leaves in the autumn wind.

Still, as if to prove that he wasn't the vice-king of Night for nothing, the Resident of the Border remained expressionless as he twisted his body in mid-air despite being struck with an impact that shook his divinity. He fixed his posture and stomped on the ground, which cracked open. Walls of earth rose around him, with Night filling up the space between the walls to reveal countless 'eyes.'

The 'eyes' were similar to the Resident of the Border's true body. Each of them were extensions of the 'door' that observed and recorded all phenomena from that past to the far future, ignoring the limits of time.

Omniscent Observer

Omnipotent Watcher

Entirety Viewer

The beings exposed to the Resident of the Border's gaze couldn't escape it, and everything would be read. Thoughts, actions, predictions' Everything. He wouldn't be bound by the restrictions of time and space, and everything that was read could be controlled by him.

It was a power that adjusted the laws of causality enforced on beings. If he wished, he could twist their thoughts and make beings kill themselves. This was why the otherworld gods and other creatures of the Night said he was most omniscient and omnipotent, except for 'him.'

The Resident of the Border controlled all the laws of the world.

Sink.

Shake.

Hide.

Dream.

Hurt.

Die.

All the gazes fixed on the Heavenly Demon, attempting to interfere in the laws of causality built around him. The divine language that could do more than command others to do your will was activated.

Swish. Swoosh! The laws around the Heavenly Demon were twisted. The black fog of Night that pierced through bound the Heavenly Demon's limbs and permeated his skin. It felt like the golden light that surrounded the Heavenly Demon momentarily faded away.

Click. Click. Something clicked.

'Oho, you're pretty good.'

But before the divine language could change the laws around Heavenly Demon, it was canceled out.

'Too bad. It's already over.'

No, it was a lot more complicated than that. Everything was 'canceled' as if it had never happened in the first place. It was a phenomenon that Yeon-woo wasn't unfamiliar with. The clicking sound just now was most definitely the sound of the 'wheel' being spun.

Divine language wasn't something that could be evaded simply by manipulating time, as long as the Resident of the Border was looking at you. However, the Heavenly Demon had just casually spun the universe's 'big wheel,' not the 'small wheel.' His action reset laws of causality to their original state.

Flash! With ease, the Heavenly Demon descended in front of the Resident of the Border. He twirled the Ruyi Bang in his hand, shooting golden light from its tip.

The twisted space and borders that the Resident of the Border had set up around himself were penetrated and the light reached his chest. Boom! At the same time, the Night that surrounded the Resident of the Border was torn apart. The injury Yeon-woo had caused onto the Resident of the Border's chest exploded and black holy power spurted like blood.

All of his attacks and defenses were rendered useless, but the Resident of the Border didn't seem surprised. He already knew that the Heavenly Demon wasn't someone he could defeat. He considered it obvious' There was only one thing he could do here: continue to respond to the Heavenly Demon's attacks.

Fall.

Collapse.

Disappear.

The 'eyes' in the Night were still fixed on the Heavenly Demon, and they attempted to restrict his movements again. Of course, they were scattered before even being able to reach him. However, it was enough to buy time.

['The Black Goat of the Woods with a Thousand Young' manifests!]

['The Nameless Mist' manifests!]

['The Source of Uncleanliness' manifests!]

'

The Eight Gods of Disorder that hadn't been able to manifest due to the disruption from the Day succeeded in manifesting at once. They couldn't appear with their true bodies because they were too large to fit through the small wormhole. However, their manifestation body made from holy power exuded a pressure that bent the space around them. The coordinates of space were being destroyed.

Each of them had a unique appearance. Some of them looked like orcs or trolls, while others were made of tentacles or crustaceans with multiple heads. They blocked the Heavenly Demon.

lightsvel Haa. Haa. The Resident of the Border panted with the wall of the Eight Gods of Disorders between him and the Heavenly Demon. Sweat dripped down his face. Holy power was pouring out of him from his injuries like a bottomless pit. It was proof that he had reached his limits in the fight with the Heavenly Demon.

Krrr. The Heavenly Demon stopped his attacks and took a step back. Unlike the pale Resident of the Border or the tense Eight Gods of Disorder who had lost a few of their limbs, the Heavenly Demon was smiling calmly. As if he had just gone out for a stroll, he didn't even seem out of breath. His holy power was still composed.

Uranus and the others quietly gasped in shock. It was difficult for them to handle the Eight Gods of Disorder after they had lost much of their divinity, but the Heavenly Demon was still as powerful as before. 'Emperors' were beings so powerful that it was impossible to see just how strong they were. 'How many beings in this universe of order have that much power? The Heavenly Demon's other faces? Or'Vimalacitra, who always sought strength, or the oldest of the Seven Demon Kings, the Bull Demon King, who is living a secluded life? Can they reach the Heavenly Demon's coattails?'

The Eight Gods of Disorder were also shocked, having thought they were the strongest aside from the Black King.

'Heavenly Demon, I heard you were trapped in the library'and unable to move'?' The Resident of the Border gasped out his words. The Heavenly Demon wouldn't give him time to catch his breath and regain his holy power, so he spoke with wariness. At the same time, he wondered how the Heavenly Demon, who had lost a lot of his strength after putting the Black King in emptiness and was recuperating in the Changgong Library, could come here.bender

The only reason why Night had been searching for the Black King's traces was because of the Resident of the Border's calculations that the Heavenly Demon wouldn't be able to step up. But the fact that the Heavenly Demon had appeared like this'meant his calculations were wrong.

'Ha! You're so full of yourselves. Aren't you overestimating yourselves?' The Heavenly Demon scoffed at the Resident of the Border and the Eight Gods of Disorder. 'Did you think this is my true body?'

'What'!' The Resident of the Border let out an exclamation.

'You bastards will die with just a flick of my finger.'

''!'

''!'

''!'

The Eight Gods of Disorder were all shocked after belatedly realizing what he meant.
