Chapter 546: Little Dee Starts His Deification Ability Again
Chapter 546: Little Dee Starts His Deification Ability Again
To be honest, Ye Cheng, who had been kept in the dark, was quite angry.
He truly wanted to teach Demiurgos a lesson to vent his anger. However, the words that Demiurgos spoke now left Ye Cheng utterly baffled. Even his contrite attitude left Ye Cheng unsure if he should still be angry.
Demiurgos had concealed the plan from him, largely for the benefit of Nascillian Necropolis. He had anticipated that this would anger Ye Cheng, so even if the truth came to light, he shouldn't have adopted such an attitude.
However, it seemed that Demiurgos was genuinely remorseful, not just because he had deceived the Supreme Sovereign, but also because he felt his actions had harmed the interests of Nascillian Necropolis.
Ye Cheng was truly baffled. Could it be that releasing the captured commoners from the kingdom and instead targeting the nobles was actually more beneficial for Nascillian Necropolis?
"The wisdom of the Great Supreme Sovereign is vast as the ocean, and I, Demiurgos, underestimated Lord Ye Cheng's previous plans and ambitions.
Lord Ye Cheng is one of the forty-two Supreme Sovereigns of Nascillian Necropolis; how could he ever do anything to harm its interests?
Due to my shortsighted actions, if it weren't for Lord Anz's reminder, I might have almost ruined Lord Ye Cheng's plan. Therefore, I truly deserve the harshest punishment!"
The more Ye Cheng listened to Little Dee, the more baffled he became. However, considering that despite his unique thought process, Demiurgos's intelligence was undeniable, Ye Cheng decided to play the same game that Squirrel usually did.
Clearing his throat, he said, "Originally, I wanted to give you a lesson for your actions.
But now, it seems that I should blame myself for expecting too much from your wisdom, Demiurgos. I thought you would be the first to understand my intentions.
After all, I have always considered you the smartest in Nascillian Necropolis and have great hopes for you, Demiurgos."
Hearing Ye Cheng's words, Demiurgos immediately knelt on one knee with a look of shame.
Seeing Demiurgos admit his mistake so readily but not elaborating further, Ye Cheng couldn't help but feel a bit anxious.
"Tell me, what plan and intentions do I have? How does Squirrel usually continue in such situations?"
As if hearing Ye Cheng's thoughts, Shatiya, who was usually not very bright, finally couldn't contain her curiosity and, acting as the perfect wingman, said, "Lord Ye Cheng's plan?
Wasn't it because Lord Ye Cheng felt pity for those lowly creatures, like ants, that he had Sebastian and Pestoya release those humans?
Just like a top predator in the food chain might occasionally crave a vegetarian meal, the lofty Supreme Sovereigns might naturally show mercy and compassion to those lowly creatures sometimes."
Shatiya, holding her pipette spear, looked somewhat dim-witted as she shared her thoughts.
However, the kneeling Demiurgos adjusted his glasses and shook his head repeatedly.
Demiurgos was long accustomed to his colleagues' lack of intelligence.
In the entire Nascillian Necropolis, apart from the two Supreme Sovereigns whose wisdom he found utterly unattainable, only the Grand Steward Yalbeld could keep up with his thinking.
Even this time, it was only with Lord Anz's reminder that Demiurgos understood Lord Ye Cheng's true intentions.
No matter what, compared to Shatiya and the others who were still oblivious, he was indeed one of the smarter beings within the Nascillian Necropolis.
Of course, his meager wisdom was nothing compared to the Supreme Sovereign.
"Demiurgos, I permit you to explain my true intentions and plans to Shatiya.
If you truly understand my purpose and convey it well, I might consider reducing your previous sins."
Recalling the usual old bone's actions, Yecheng assumed the demeanor of the Supreme Sovereign and spoke to Demiurgos.
Demiurgos, who was clearly affected by this, stood up and addressed Shatiya, "At first, I also thought that Yecheng-sama was merely being kind and merciful.
But after Lord Anz's reminder, I belatedly realized that Yecheng-sama is one of the Supreme Sovereigns of the Nascillian Necropolis. Under no circumstances would Yecheng-sama act against the interests of the Necropolis."
Yecheng: (▽｀) You finally understood a teapot, I don't even understand myself!
As Demiurgos passionately shared his thoughts, Yecheng couldn't help but interrupt, "Demiurgos, I have a question that has been on my mind.
What exactly did Squirrel... Anz tell you?"
Yecheng understood that Didi's imagination was sparked again, likely due to what Squirrel had said to him. So, he was curious about their conversation.
"Yes, Lord Anz told me that after Yecheng-sama's reminder, he realized he had lost his true self."
"Initially, I couldn't comprehend the meaning of those words, but after deep contemplation, I grasped their true significance!
The true intention of the two Supreme Sovereigns is to rule this world and find the other Supreme Sovereigns, isn't it? With this understanding, I finally grasped Yecheng-sama's true purpose."
"If it were merely a matter of pitying the weak, and choosing to release the kingdom's civilians, then why did Yecheng-sama order us to capture the kingdom's nobles as replacements?
Whether it's the kingdom's civilians or nobles, in our eyes, they are all weak and inferior beings.
The reason for this is that Yecheng-sama is smarter than us and understands human thinking better.
Compared to the kingdom's civilians, who can only serve as fodder, the kingdom's nobles have more value. Especially after learning about Yecheng-sama's plans in the Shilian Theocracy and Bahar Empire, I deeply admire Yecheng-sama's wisdom."
Watching Didi speak eloquently with a sincere expression, Yecheng couldn't help but sigh and cover his face.
If not for Didi's explanation, Yecheng wouldn't have known that his random actions could actually be connected, and they made perfect sense! Seeing Shatiya's adoring gaze, Yecheng also felt what the old bone usually felt and could only nod with a stiff smile, "Demiurgos, you've spoken well. I didn't think I'd hidden my intentions so deeply, yet you saw through them."
