Chapter 702: I fight to protect my home
"I will not pretend your help was not valuable because it was. Without it, I would have perished.
However, I am not just one man right now, and the faith and trust of many have been placed on my shoulders, and I cannot let them down after all they sacrificed."
The Collapsing Lightning Duke and the rest of the Godslayer Humankind Divine Ascension Masters remained silent and did not say a word as they let Cain carry on with the verdict on those Gods. Even if they fought together, that did not mean all was forgiven, not by a long shot.
General Casidius stared at Cain and softly nodded, indicating he understood the young man's words.
"The death that arises between two armies is something one expects of war, and every soldier on the battlefield must be ready to face that. You are the invading army, so you are in the wrong. Everybody beneath the Apotheosis Realm of your forces perished, which would have been enough punishment.
However, the Inferno Daemon Invasion Army went against the civilians in the neighboring Sectors of the Zafiro Sector. Billions of human civilians vanished, with not even their bodies remaining. That is something that Godslayer Humankind cannot simply forget."
Cain's eyes grew cold as he uttered those words, and space began to tremble as if reflecting the killing intent that arose in his heart.
Shame appeared on the Gods' faces as they heard those words. None of them would shy away from killing other soldiers on the battlefield, but murdering civilians was indeed disgraceful. Although that was an order of the Void King, and they did not want to carry on with it, it was clear that the Scarlet King would not accept such a pathetic excuse.
"According to my analysis, it was only one God responsible for those deaths, so I will take that person's life and let the rest go back to your homes. If you say that the God was already killed, then I will go through the memories of one of you to make sure."
A flash of fear appeared in the eyes of the Gods as they heard those words. It was clear that soul searching would kill the target, and they knew the culprit of that crime was present.
