The return of Sui Xiong made the higher ups of the church of Void Mask delighted. Although they had lived a good life the past few years, they were worried about the situation of Sui Xiong nursing his wound. Then they saw their Majesty unscathed appear before everyone energetically, and finally let out a breath of relief.

During the meeting of the higher-ups in church, Sui Xiong explained the situation of his trip. He had everyone work with collective wisdom and concerted effort to think about what they should build the small world into.

“I have to emphasise something; this can’t be built freely to your temperament!” he said solemnly. “This world will become our holy kingdom in the future. All of you have to stay here after you die. Frost, don’t you dare look as though ‘it’s doesn’t matter to me, as after I die I’ll be in the kingdom of Gods of Dragon.’ How would the kingdom of Gods of Dragon be any better than a holy kingdom than you designed yourself!”

However, everyone did not ponder seriously according to his advice but gave irrelevant answers and redirected to a different topic.

“The Gods in Orc god system launched a siege at Your Majesty?!” When they heard that Sui Xiong got injured in the siege by Orc god system, Gerald suddenly shot his eyes wide open and swung a fist to smash the table before him. He was raging with anger like a burning flame.

He waved his fist and his eyes shot red when he roared, “This is declaring war! This is declaring war against us! Fight! We have to fight! We have to make them feel the pain, we have to make them fear the pain! We have to beat them until they dare not look for trouble ever again!”

“Huh?” Sui Xiong was stunned. He didn’t understand why he as a victim had yet to react that emotionally, but Gerald was so affected.

“How dare… how dare… how dare he do such a thing!” Palin’s body was quivering in anger. He was so angry that his face grew distorted. He clenched his teeth and gritted in shivery voice, “Damn! Damn! Damn!”

“We have to kill them! Have to kill them for sure!” In the image in magic projection, Olian was slightly quivering too, seemed to have difficulty suppressing herself.

“Hey hey! All of you are too emotional…”

But, Sui Xiong’s objection was totally ignored.

“That’s true! We can’t just let this slip!” Wor’s eyes were giving out rays of coolness, they didn’t know he had withdrawn his famous weapon, “Black Blade.” On his shiny black blade, there was a hint of coolness flowing. “Why don’t I make a trip to the Orc Empire and kill eight to ten High Priest first!”

“It’s inappropriate for you to go. If you are found, you’ll be in big trouble.” Snowflake looked calm but she turned around and switched the conversation to another topic. “Let Jose go. He’s a barbarian at the end of the day. His relationship with the Orcs has been good since the beginning. A barbarian expert wanting to barge into the legendary realm and going Orc’s territory to kill an expert… looking for a turning point among blood and fire, isn’t that something very normal?”

Then, she even made a small blackboard with ice and drew a barbarian that was killing Orcs with axe. Then, suddenly his body glistened and he levelled up.

Everyone was entertained by the image and nodded in agreement.

Sui Xiong pouted, as he didn’t find it funny at all.

Everyone is living in their hometown, passing days in peace, isn’t that great? Why do they have to sneak into people’s places to kill them? There must be something wrong in their heads!

He looked at Jose with hope. In his impression, this tall and good looking man, with moustache, and unrestrained like the knight errant Lu Xiaofeng in Wuxia, was a stable man. He would definitely not support such illogical suggestion.

But, he was wrong. Jose didn’t have any intention to reject. On the contrary, he was delighted.

As a northern person, also commonly known as a barbarian, Jose had fought countless wars with the Orcs. The number of Orcs killed with his long spear and the number of comrades being killed by the Orcs before his eyes, was uncountable.

To incidents like killing Orcs, although he was not elated, he was definitely more than happy to.

“No problem,” he said, “but I need to put on some makeup. Back then, I had a great fight with the Orcs at Snow Dragon Mountain pass, so I have something of a reputation there. If I don’t make up, within the first few days in the Orc Empire, I will most likely be recognized.”

“No problem, I’ll take care of that.” Rhodes, who finally found a chance to show off, quickly said, “I’ll help you to look for a few makeup experts. I’m sure that they can give you a paradoxical appearance, and it would be waterproof!”

He thought and added, “Besides that, I have quite a bit of information regarding the geographical and political situation in the Orc Empire. Also, the information of the experts. Taking action with all the information on hand, it would be even more effective!”

“Hey! Aren’t you living by the principle of prospering in peace? Aren’t you the one who always says ‘thieves are not killers?’ Why are you so excited and sound so familiar when talking about assassination! Are you sure you didn’t operate a killer organization behind my back?”

Rhodes was shocked at Sui Xiong’s teasing and immediately explained himself. But his explanation was drowned in Frost’s scream.

“I want to go too!” the voice of a young rock dragon screamed, as loud as a car honk. “Although my fighting skill might not be on par with Jose, I run fast! If necessary, I can also drill underground and fly. If I cooperate with him, regardless of assassination or escape, it will be much safer!”

Snowflake creased her eyebrows and hesitated before she nodded faintly.

“Be careful!” she said. “Safety first; you have to return alive to have a future!”

“I’ll prepare some poisonous mushroom bombs. At a crucial time, you can throw them out,” Acraian said. “But you must remember, you can only use it in desperate times. This thing is very dangerous, the killing radius is extremely huge. It would easily affect the innocent citizens.”

“Don’t head to the north. The Orcs on that side are more alert,” Satan said as he took out a map and pointed. “Head over to the middle region of Orc Empire, it is more peaceful there and the Orcs are less on guard. It would be easier to flee after causing some chaos. I have mastered the high transmission skill recently and I can give the both of you scrolls. After the fight, immediately return to the theme park via transmission skill. No matter how great they are, they won’t be able to catch you!”

“Hold on!” Sui Xiong looked at them in heated discussion, who seemed to have confirm the plan of sending a person and a dragon to the Orc Empire to kill the priest of the Orc God system church. He couldn’t help but shout, “All of you got it all wrong! I am talking about designing a holy kingdom! Why did it turn into war with Orc God system? And I, as a God, have yet to agree, when all of you seem to have decided on how to fight the war!”

“Your Majesty, coming across such matter, you must declare war!” Gerald shouted. “This is not only your problem, it is also our problem! As devout believers, how could we withstand other people’s’ intention to kill Your Majesty!”

“Not ‘intended;’ they already did!” Snowflake corrected him, “although I am not a believer, such a matter is so difficult to put up with! If I could swallow my pride for such matter, I do not deserve to consider myself a proud giant dragon!”

Sui Xiong looked lost; he couldn’t understand why would a normal fight developed into such a situation.

He sought for help by looking at Ray and Carisa, who were also attending the meeting through magic projection. For the past few years, the lady city owner—who still looked the same since she stopped aging at seventeen—nodded in agreement. “If it was me, I would think there is a need to take revenge. The situation in Garth city for the past few years has improved. If you need money, we could transfer some out… about 10,000 gold coins? Is that sufficient?”

Then, she turned and looked at Ray who was sitting next to her in real life.

All these years of dealing with government affairs in Garth city, Ray’s temperament was getting more and more stable; he even developed an invisible dignity. That moment, he looked as though he was wearing a crown, just like a king who was reliable and dependable, who would make all his officials devote themselves to him.

In Garth city and the nearby area, people addressed him as “The King of Seaside,” and the title was approved by everyone else. Hence, it was quite widely spread.

It was said that the King in Moon Kingdom heard the news and got angry. But even the King had no confidence to warn or lecture Ray for that.

There was even rumor that there was a bard who saw both of them and talked to them once, praising them, “The one sitting on the throne was dignified, but his dignity came from his crown and his knights; the other one, his dignity is his crown and his knights. If must be an evaluation between the two, the King that opened up a kingdom is of course more powerful than the King guarding the city.

Looking at Sui Xiong’s eyes, he nodded and said calmly, “Your Majesty, you rejected such a war due to being the embodiment of kindness. But, just like a King couldn’t start or end a war according to his liking, the same applies to Gods. You are our ruler, you have the rights to decide everything. The reason why we are angry, why we want to start a war, is because of that too.

“Please take a different viewpoint and think. How could a God self-sustain among various Gods? You, of course, could enhance your power through forming alliances with other Gods. But, I think, compared to allies, deterrents are even more important!”

“I think I am quite a deterrent…” Sui Xiong mumbled.

Ray smiled and said, “I do not deny that. Back then, that battle where you killed two Gods at a time already sent out a sufficient deterrent. But the deterrent belonged to you, not your church. As a God that built a church, your church requires the same level of deterrents. Otherwise, when your holy kingdom rises up to the sky, the believers in the human world will be hemmed in by various Gods’ churches that were fighting against you.”

“I’ll go and beat up those Gods!” Sui Xiong gave a death glare, and said ferociously.

“If the other party were to dominate by sheer force of numbers?” Ray smiled as he spoke. “Honestly speaking, this is a provocation, but also an opportunity. It’s an opportunity to show our flag of Void Mask church and gain fame! If we could use this opportunity appropriately and built our church’s prestige with the Orcs’ fresh blood, regardless of preaching or war, it would be more convenient.”

Sui Xiong was at loss for words and kept quiet for very long.

He looked over to every higher-up of the church and looked at these friends that were most loyal to him, and contributed the greatest. In the end, he let out a heavy sigh.

“If these are the so-called ‘game rules,’ then do according to your ideas.” He slowly disappeared in dejection. He got back to the deep and serene underground, and hid himself in the darkest corner to rest.

The rules in this world are so annoying!
