"Divine Concepts?" Anthony asked with puzzlement.

"Hahaha, young Worker Ant, you really should put aside your endless work to explore the world a little. However, we are definitely grateful for your diligence, as without it, we would not have progressed this far, hmm?" Beelzebub replied amiably.

"M-My L-Lord, I am j-just…" Anthony stuttered, shocked and excited by the praise.

"Hahaha, don't think too much about it. No one can doubt your accomplishments, not before me. Since its praise, you deserve, praise you shall get." The Lord of the Flies reiterated.

Centicreed gazed at this with endless envy and jealously burning in his heart. Seeing his nemesis praised for hard work, which he had matched in every way throughout the centuries, made him feel discouraged.

Beelzebub then turned to the oversized centipede and spoke with a gentle tone. "You too young Centicreed. I have not missed the work you put into creating new pathways for our race, ever-expanding our tunnels and the routes we can take to bypass the eyes of those above to procure sustenance. Without you, we might have perished long ago."

Shocked by the sudden praise, Centricreed also mumbled foolishly, his heart filled with joy and satisfaction. Suddenly, everything he had done over all those long years seemed worth it, and he felt motivated to work even harder!

Anthony harrumphed slightly, but this didn't ruin his good mood from being acknowledged, especially since he had been the first to be praised.

Despite, or probably because of their rivalry, he - more than anyone - aware that the centipede bastard had done a good job, and as someone who loved worked, he couldn't help but grudgingly respect the fellow for his dedication.

"Mm, to answer the earlier question of young Anthony, a Divine Concept is an ethereal existence that exists in the center position of faith, law, and element. It is all of these, yet none of them at the same time." The aged Fly explained slowly, but upon seeing that the young ones were still confused, he decided to go a step further.

"All of you are familiar with the basic elements, like fire, water, earth, wind that we usually engage with. Now the Elves worship magic as a concept and have provided them with a great amount of Faith Energy over the millennia."

"As such, it was cloned from the Source concept of Magic from the laws of Faust, then infused with Faith Energy over time, giving both of a consciousness."

"As a concept of magic, it gave birth to its own elemental pantheon as it slowly attained godhood, the elements that were affiliated to it specifically are not the same elements we use through Faustian Law, instead we call them Divine Concepts to differentiate the two."

Seeing as Queenie, Mothlina, Ladyba, Rancido, Sonicket, and Spidersin understood, whereas Heracron, Bloodivore, Anthony, Centicreed, and Gluttworm still looked lost, Beelzebub sighed.

"Magic is essentially a law of Faust, something that we can tap into once our evolution reached a certain stage. Faith is a special form of energy produced when a group of mortals truly believe in an idea, concept or person, granting them the ability to attain godhood, or some aspect of it."

"An element is merely a particle of that, it represents an aspect of reality, forming a building block that makes our world and we ourselves."

"This law was copied from its source, fed great amounts of Faith Energy over time and had become partly god-like, then gave birth to its own group of elements that were not a part of the world like their counterparts, but unique to the concept of magic that created them, also possessing minor deific abilities."

"That is the concept of Divine Magic and the Divine Concept. It is basically typical Fallon magic, but much more powerful. More than one or two notches stronger in fact." Beelzebub concluded.

"Then, there's the fellow who has the connection to Gaia… what a problem. Gaia is the spirit of Faust, a sort of collective consciousness of every living thing on the planet that is non-sentient or semi-sentient."

"Sentient species like ourselves, the elves, the humans, and others have our own collective consciousnesses. Ours is our hivemind, the elves have their divine concept and the humans have the dreamscape."

"Back to the main point, the power of Gaia is far stronger than any of our own collective consciousness due to the sheer quantity of collective non-sentient minds on Faust being far greater than even if we were to take into account all the members of our race who have ever been spawned."

"In the past, Gaia gathered this power to gave birth to a race of special entities with unique powers called the Titans."

"They each had the ability to control one element beyond the level of Faust's own law system, a feat which nobody has ever managed to recreate. Like me, they were considered True Lords of Faust due to their nonsensical power." Beelzebub revealed with a tired sigh.

"Gaia might have been powerful, but perhaps fortunately she was not intelligent. Since the things it was collected from were non-sentient or semi-sentient, she too acted based on instinct only."

"She ended up splitting the core of her power into five hearts, namely the Thunder, Tree, Fire, Aqua, and Air Heart. Gaia handed her strongest Titans one each and tasked them with taking down those dogs who had abused Faith Energy to gather power."

The moment the Gods were mentioned, Beelzebub let out a derisive sneer as a cold aura burst from him. It made the other Grandmaster Insect Lord's quiver in fear, shocked by their Ancestor's might.

"However, it was all for naught. Gaia's Titans were killed one by one by the collective efforts of the 'Gods' and those Demons. Realizing that even after being dissected they showed no loss of vitality, they were eventually sealed in Armadon, under a place called Tartarus."

"This included the five champions, who had their elemental heart stripped out and taken as spoils of war by the so-called Gods. As for their current locations, I am unaware."

"In truth, there was one titan who managed to remain unsealed even under the assault of all the cretins and their armies, which was Thanatos. That fellow is the most fearsome of our kind, his power is almost endless as the law he controls is too easy to grow and empower due to its inevitability and fundamental nature to existence." Beelzebub admitted with an expression none of the Insect Lords had ever expected to see on him. Not only was there deep-seated respect, but also hints of fear.
