    As someone who has managed to be a child of the ne once, he believes he has a say on how overrated the title of the child of the ne is. The Vampire on the other hand believed that what he said is nonsense.


    The vampire scoffed. "Overrated, he says. You are speaking in ignorance. Do you know what it means to be a child of the ne? How many children of the ne do you know? She is a rare existence meant to be a channel for thebined power of the ne."


    Ragnarok fell silent. He didn''t say anything despite having a lot to say about the title of the child of the ne. Sure, the Emperor will be much stronger than Soverick because of her POWER stat, which Soverickcks. Her POWER stat will help her fully utilize the connection to the ne. But that doesn''t mean Soverick can''t kill her.


    She is a young ignorant child with power while Soverick is a seasoned killer. Soverick hasn''t used the boost from his title yet but Ragnarok is sure that he will have better control of it than her. He will y her around like the child she is with the power of his eyes. So he doesn''t think much about the title. He cares more for the wielder of the power. But the Vampire took his silence as defeat.


    "I heard from the Supreme of Carnage that Emperors be stronger if they eat their pairing Executioner. But you don''t have to be worried too much. The Supreme of Carnage is notckingpared to the will of the ne either. You just have to be the channel for the power of the Supreme of Carnage if you want to match her."


    He didn''t say anything anymore. He appeared to be deep in contemtion. Meanwhile, he was having a talk with the voice in his head.


    He asked, "Did you put her up to this?"


    "Of course not. Primogenitors are very close to me. They are the closest thing I have to children. I inform them about thetest developments in the ne to keep them prepared for anything. So I told her about you refusing my blessing but I didn''t tell her to badger you with words until you submit. I have tried that myself and it didn''t work."


    He snickered to himself. "Like I would believe you."


    It is the major problem withmunicating with demons and smart people, if you don''t make a contract with them, then it is the uttermost foolishness to believe whatever they say. He is a smart person and he believes the demon god is one too. He lies very well and easily to get his way. That means the demon god can too.


    His entire situation might be a lie. Maybe death might be able to save him from the clutches of CARNAGE. He is only certain that his body is currently his enemy and has be the home ground of CARNAGE in his existence just like Aeternus''s and Helios''s bodies betrayed them. However, he isn''t willing to test his hypothesis because the consequences of failure are too high.


    Even so, he allowed himself to use the demon god. "I don''t believe that you didn''t put her up to this."


    The demon god chuckled dismissively, "I don''t need you to believe me. You will fall into my grasp soon. You have no choice. It is just a matter of time. I always win."


    The vampire interrupted his mental argument. "The Supreme of Carnage didn''t put me up to this. I am just giving you good advice."


    "This is frustrating," he grumbled inwardly.


    The demon god can''t hear his thoughts unless he projects them outward, but the fact that their conversations are not secret is already rubbing him the wrong way. There are advantages to having a very powerful being in your head that you can talk to. You can learn so much about the world that you didn''t know.


    Information from everywhere gets to you easily. The disadvantage is that your information also gets to others easily. It is something that he doesn''t like at all. He isining to the demon god and the Emperiti Primogenitor is being informed that he isining and informed about what he isining about.


    Probably every primogenitor knows about him, how he looks, where he is currently, and how much he doesn''t like the demon god and Vampires in general. Everything that is known about him is known by every primogenitor who can then tell everyone in their lineage. It reaffirmed his Will not to sumb to the demon god.


    The vampire continued, oblivious to his inner thoughts, "I am trying to convince you to be our champion because we Vampires want the war to end too. We won''t have to sleep during the day anymore if the Supreme of Carnage removes the barricade that it has formed around the ne. The removal of the barricade will also let us leave the ne and explore the realm. It is a good thing for everyone if you take up your responsibility."


    The Vampire made a lot of good points. If the demon god stops locking down the ne with its entire body, then it won''t have to face the full brunt of the power of the sun anymore. That means all the Vampires that this body of it jas created will not have to sleep during the time that the sun shines its light on the ne. They won''t be weakened during the day either but they will still be susceptible to fire and light.


    That will improve the standard of living of the Vampires and remove one of their most crippling weaknesses. It is a convincing reason for why the Vampires would want the war to end quickly. But it is not a good enough reason for him to be a ve to a demon god. Nothing can convince him to shackle his existence like that.
