Chapter 888 Carnage Vs Wrath.Chapter 888 Carnage Vs Wrath.

It said to them gleefully, "One shouldn't commit the grave sin of making WRATH angry. You will find out why pretty soon. When I am done with you, you will wish for death but death won't come because it is afraid of me."

Excitement radiated out of WRATH in waves, meanwhile, fear and dread coursed through the ones who didn't vote in agreement or didn't vote at all. They began to plead.

"Please, your Excellency. Give us another chance."

"We will join now."

"Please forgive us. We were foolish."

"Please let us join."

None of them begged for their life. They were stupid not to vote in support of the Coalition earlier so they didn't bother to beg for their lives. They made a foolish decision earlier but they are not that stupid as to believe that WRATH will spare them if they don't join the coalition.

There's no way WRATH will let them go after insulting it like that. It called them to a meeting. It promised safety. It clashed with other demon gods and upheld that safety. It listened to their whining and complaints. It even made the other demon gods swear not to attack them. And yet, they didn't vote.

They are so done for. Begging for their lives will be an insult to the demon god. It will aggravate the demon god if they beg because it means they think it is merciful. The only way for them to be safe from him is if they are part of the coalition. So they are begging to join the coalition.

"Fools," CARNAGE shouted at them. "The coalition is already formed. You can join anytime. Why are you begging WRATH?"

The demon kings and demon lords were at first stunned when they heard what the demon god said. Then they swiftly accessed the abyssal orb with their divine sense and rushed to swear the oath of loyalty needed to join the Coalition. It turned out that CARNAGE was right. They don't need to beg now that the Coalition has formed. Any demon lord and demon king can join freely.

WRATH turned its attention onto the one that spoiled its fun. It had all these fools at the palm of its non-existent hands and it could play with them in any way it wished. It wasn't going to kill them. It wanted them to leave the meeting first so that its first oath would stop being in effect. Then it will be able to act against them. It will heavily extort them before allowing them to join the Coalition. It needs a lot of resources to prepare for the era of conquest. But it can't do all of that now.

"Why did you do that?" It asked with a cool tone.

CARNAGE answered smugly, "I just wanted to mess with you that's all. It was harmless fun. There's no ill intent here."

That's a lie. It had ill intent. It didn't want WRATH to have its way and get more resources. It also didn't want any demon god to take advantage of them and get more powerful. Any demon god can extort them but the resources will be too small if they all do it. That small amount of resources is not good enough for it so it made sure that none of them will get anything at all. If it can't have a large portion of it, then no one will get anything. That's Carnage for you.

WRATH obviously doesn't believe CARNAGE. But it doesn't need a reason to not believe right now. It is already very angry. All the anger from the insult of the demon lords and demon kings plus the unvented anger from GREED became focused on CARNAGE. But it didn't attack. It knows it will be a waste of time. So it will target something precious and vulnerable that belongs to CARNAGE.

WRATH asked menacingly, "Weren't you trying to take over another plane? How is it going?"

CARNAGE answered with a relaxed tone. "It is going well. I have almost gotten total control of the plane."

WRATH threatened, "Is that so? It will surely be a shame if someone were to interfere and ruin all your work."

"That's impossible. The only trouble I have is one stubborn Warrog and one other prideful shit of a creature. They are resisting and spoiling my work. But their resistance is futile. They will be ended soon and I'll get control of the plane."

"Maybe I can help you. Why don't you tell me the planar coordinates? I can help you destroy all obstacles. I am very good at that." WRATH suggested with very clear ill intent.

CARNAGE snorted and said, "Dream on."

WRATH leered, "I won't need your permission if I find that plane myself."

"Then you better start looking." CARNAGE shot back.

Then it flew away leaving the fuming demon God of wrath behind.

WRATH yelled at it, "I will find it. Do you hear me? I will find it and I will mess around with it. It will be harmless fun and I won't have any ill intent." 

Carnage didn't forget to give it some encouragement. The snarky and self satisfied demon god shouted back at WRATH, "You are welcome to give it your best shot."

Silence returned to the abyss. But WRATH is definitely fuming. Everyone can see it. Its cloud is boiling and erupting with lava and fire. Red lightning is flashing through the cloud of fire. Thunder is booming and creating shockwaves that are creating massive waves in the cloud. So it is very clear that WRATH is very agitated.

It is very angry but it doesn't have an outlet for its anger. It roared in frustration. Waves of spiritual pressure smashed into everything around it. Then it glared at the demon kings and demon lords. It is as if it is going to attack them. But it didn't. It can't do anything to them so it flew away too.

The other demon gods dispersed too except SLOTH. The clear white fluffy cloud that looks like a colossal sheep remained still without movement. The only sound that can be heard from it is the intermittent swishing of energy in it that sounds like snoring. It is probably asleep.
