Chapter 283: God’s Rules
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
God’s realm, Fire God’s Island.
Ragnaros sat quietly in the center of the island. His expression was extremely serious as he looked in front of him. He dared not to shift his gaze.
In front of him was a small ball of light that floated in the air, slowly rotating.
Although the ball of light was not big, the light flickered gently. It did not seem to be harmful.
However, Ragnaros’s expression was incomparably grave. This was because he knew that this ball of light was not an ordinary ball of light.
In reality, it was the God of Light, Bader!
He did not know why Bader had come here. He only knew that he had to be careful now. Even at his peak, he was slightly inferior to Bader, not to mention that he was now heavily injured.
In front of the strongest God in the deity world, he had to be extremely careful. Were he to anger the other party, then he definitely would not have a good ending.
The other party had clearly just arrived, but Ragnaros felt that this wait was incomparably long. After an unknown amount of time, a somewhat neutral voice came from within the small ball of light.
“Ragnaros, do you know why I came looking for you?” This voice was very gentle and warm, it sounded like a spring breeze that blew past. It made people feel extremely comfortable.
However, at this moment, this voice sounded extremely terrifying in Ragnaros’s ears.
He hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice, “I don’t know.”
He really did not know.
Either that, he was unsure of this purpose.
Perhaps the other party had come because of his injury, or perhaps the other party had come because of his spirit-gathering fire bead being stolen, or perhaps it was an entirely different matter that he was unaware of.
There were many possibilities, but it was definitely not a good thing.
At this time, rather than thinking too much, it was better to say that he did not know. This was currently the best option.
As the strongest God in the divine realm, Bader did not beat around the bush with Ragnaros. She went straight to the point.
“I came to look for you upon the matter of Arthas.”
“Arthas? Why are you looking for me when it’s about him?”
Ragnaros frowned slightly.
Bader’s voice came from the ball of light without any hesitation.
“You know why I’m looking for you.”
“…”
Ragnaros was silent.
In the divine realm, the three strongest Gods were the God of Light, the God of War, and Ragnaros, the God of Fire.
Among these three Gods, the Bader and Arthas had always had a bad relationship. The God of War did not have a good relationship with anyone, and no God was willing to deal with him.
Thus, Arthas had always tried to build a good relationship with Ragnaros. Although this matter had been done very covertly, it still could not be hidden from Bader.
Ragnaros hesitated for a moment and chose to cast aside his relationship with Arthas.
“If you want to do something to him, I don’t think it has anything to do with me.”
Were Ragnaros’s strength to be at his original peak state, then his attitude might have been a little tougher. After all, his peak was only slightly inferior to Bader’s. There was no reason for him to give in so easily.
However, now was not the time!
He could only abandon Arthas to protect himself. If Bader wanted to attack Arthas now, Ragnaros absolutely did not want to care.
Surprisingly, Bader’s next words surprised Ragnaros.
“You misunderstand, Ragnaros.
“Although I don’t like Arthas, I won’t attack the Gods or creatures from the lower realm for my personal interests.”
Hearing this, Ragnaros frowned even more.
He squinted at the ball of light in front of him and asked, “If that’s the case, why did you come to me to talk about Arthas?”
“You might have misunderstood. I only said that I would not make a move against the Arthas for personal interests.”
“What do you mean?”
“This time, it’s not for personal interests.”
“…”
Ragnaros fell silent for a moment again.
Bader’s words were equivalent to admitting that she was going to make a move against Arthas.
Ragnaros felt a little relieved at this moment. Fortunately, he had taken the initiative to distance himself from the relationship with Arthas. Otherwise, Bader might have regarded him as an enemy who stood on the same side as Arthas.
“Then, what did he do?”
Ragnaros asked in a relaxed tone.
“He violated the rules.
“The reason why a God is a God is precisely because to the lower realm, we represent the rules.
“Without you, the lower realm would not have flames. You control the flames, and you represent the flames.
“Without me, the lower realm would not have light. I control the light, and I represent the light.
“And Arthas controls death, which also represents death.”
The light of the ball of light did not change in the slightest. It was still as gentle as before. Bader’s voice did not change at all. It sounded unperturbed.
Ragnaros did not say anything until this point. He just listened patiently. He knew that Bader, who controlled the light in the divine realm, was a very old-fashioned God. It was meaningless to say too much to such a God.
He just wanted to know what Arthas had done.
Bader did not beat around the bush. She continued,
“This time, Arthas broke the rules.
“For his own personal gain… he changed the rules of death.”
Hearing this, Ragnaros narrowed his eyes. He also realized the seriousness of the problem. As Bader often said, the reason why a God was a God was because a God was unique and supreme.
If a God broke the rules, then a God was not worthy of becoming a God. The God of Death actually took the initiative to disturb the rules of death. This was unforgivable.
Obviously, Arthas could no longer be saved. After a moment of silence, Ragnaros took the initiative to say, “So this time you intend to…”
“Kill him.”
Bader’s voice was still as genial as before as if her tone had never changed. However, when Ragnaros heard these words, he was extremely shocked.
Killing a God could actually be said so lightly?
At this moment, Ragnaros’s thoughts moved at an extremely fast speed. He had to find a way to solve this problem that could be the most beneficial to him.
This method was very simple, and he did not even need to think too much about it.
So, Ragnaros immediately came up with an answer.
“Leave this to me.”
Bader did not seem to be surprised by this. She just calmly replied.
“Sure.”
The next moment, the ball of light disappeared into thin air as if it had never come.
Arthas, who was in the lower realm, did not know anything about this conversation.
He had no idea that he had become an outcast.
