Darius Supreme

Chapter 446 - 446



Beelzebub finally comprehended why Darius had been verbally farting all this while. 

Upon reaching this conclusion, his body trembled, but not in fear, rather anger! This was preposterous, unheard of, and vile! 

​​

Basically, Darius was asking him to put on a show with him! 

To become an actor in the drama of the \'Insects\' genocide\' to please the Goddess so that he and the other members of his race might gain a better standing when it was time to meet her. 

During the first Quest, the Titan God of Death had cleverly done things in a way to show favor upon to the Goddess, who would eventually show her favor back to him. 

Darius now presented Beelzebub with the perfect opportunity to do the same as Thanatos, only that his role would end with his head rolling. 

What actually angered the Lord of the Flies was the fact that this proposition was… truly enticing! 

Beelzebub had already subconsciously accepted that his death was inevitable given what he knew. Now that his creator had his entire race in her sights, there was no other outcome, regardless of whether Darius did it or some other monkey with anxiety. 

He hated himself for already half agreeing to the proposal. However, the True Lord of Faust was too terrified of what would happen after he died if he didn\'t. 

Just like how the moment one hit 50 years of age, one would suddenly become more religious and benevolent. 

After a lifetime of doing whatever one wanted and frolicking, one\'s mortality would be more apparent than ever, as such many would begin to plan for what may happen afterward. 

At this time, Gluttworm, Bloodivore, Rancido, and Heracron stepped forward to protest. 

"My Lord, we mustn\'t! We of the Insect Race fear nothing! Come rain or shine, we will prevail as we always have! If even Gods could not kill us, how could this scrawny runt do so?!" 

"That\'s right! I say we devour them and use the strength they give us to break away from these shackles to an entity that would command us to our death!" 

"We can grow in power infinitely as long as sufficient nutrition is provided! These three would be perfect to raise the power of our Lord to grand heights, and we too can follow in your wake!" 

At this time, Mothlina, Ladyba, and Queenie came forth with soft voices. 

"My Lord, I don\'t think it\'s wise to accept the offer so quickly. Let us return and analyze it in detail." 

"Uncle Beelzebub, I don\'t know about this… it seems weird and sketchy…" 

"What he wants us to do is a non-option, Lord Beelzebub. We cannot accept, but we cannot rush to deny either." 

Anthony, Centicreed, and Sonicket spoke. 

"This seems like quite the problem, eh? Gandalf would have been able to solve it, but I don\'t even know why I know such a name…" 

"My work has led me to realize that this world is quite large. There are things we don\'t know and this situation demands your wisdom, Lord." 

"Chiirpp… well, I hate talking unnecessarily. The choice lies with you, Lord. I will follow you no matter what." 

As Beelzebub was torn between these three schools of thought, Spidersin simply scuttled over to his side slowly and calmly. He then turned to face Beelzebub beside him and spoke softly. 

"My Lord, you know what we have to do. You\'ve always known from the beginning." 

Spidersin\'s voice was not heard by any of the other Insects, nor Gunner and Xela, but Darius was able to catch it because his focus had been on the spider since the very beginning. 

Its reactions and behavior told him that it was the only other Insect that was able to follow the entire conversation. 

Gunner and Xela didn\'t have worse hearing than Darius, they just focused on different targets. 

The half-giant had his eyes on Beelzebub, Gluttworm, and Heracron because they posed the biggest physical threat in terms of raw power. 

The Elven Princess was focused on Mothlina, Queenie, and Ladyba. 

She was sad that such pretty and cute bugs would have to be killed by then, desperately wishing to save them by keeping them as pets. However, she knew it was impossible. 

Beelzebub\'s hesitance faded immediately at the words of Spidersin, as he sighed audibly. This silenced the other Insect Lords as they knew that a decision had been made. 

"We will adhere to the Goddess\' will." The Lord of the Flies stated coldly. 

The moment he said so, he seemed to have age 50,000 years in one go, which was only about 10% of his lifespan. Spidersin sighed as well and prepared to leave with the others. The three support bugs all remained silent but accepted their Lord\'s decision. 

The three female bugs shared an uncertain look between each other but acquiesced, understanding that there must be extra factors in their Lord\'s considerations that they couldn\'t understand. 

As for the four violent and brainless bugs, they started a racket, trying to convince Beelzebub otherwise. 

"Enough! I have considered everything before coming to this decision, but you\'re free to ignore it if you feel that you know better! The enemy is right before you anyway." Beelzebub roared with frustration. 

This silenced the quartet of troublemakers immediately, just looking at Gunner who was grinning widely, his attitude was daring them to try anything. 

Darius smiled and nodded. "A wise choice, Lord Beel. In order to give you a fighting chance and level the playing field, I shall present you with a gift that should solidify our… \'partnership\'." 

Darius then tossed out a bottle of Lunar Dew to the True Lord, who grabbed it suspiciously. When he uncorked it and took a whiff, he was shocked and ecstatic. 

"A bottle of pure Lunar Dew! My God, how can this be?! With this, my injuries will be greatly restored, if not fully cured!" 

Darius nodded and smiled as Beelzebub finally dropped his guard as he checked the Lunar Dew. "That\'s right. By doing so, I have gained goodwill with you, but significantly lowered my own chances of success. As such, to level the playing field and give myself a fighting chance, I will have to do this." 

Beelzebub suddenly felt the omen of death screeching in his ears so loudly he almost became dizzy. This was far worse than when he had been injured by Susanoo, or even when he had faced Yuli\'ann.
