The Demon Emperor was Saint Emperor

Chapter 177: Human World Demigod

"Abdicate, let your son take the throne, or be convicted of treason and collusion with the Demon Race, and wait for the Light Legion to overthrow your rule, selecting another branch of your royal family to be emperor."

Despite the Sunset Empire Emperor’s rage, Akelie remained unwavering, his attitude firm, as though he had a powerful backing supporting him.

"Emperor Wayne, are you just going to watch Akelie threaten us? Is the Light Empire being dictated by you or by him, Akelie?"

Seeing that reasoning with the obstinate Akelie was futile, the other emperors could only turn their attention back to Wayne, the Emperor of the Light Empire. No matter what was said, he was the true ruler of the Light Empire. Even if Akelie was the Pope of the Light Church Court, as long as the Light Emperor voiced opposition, Akelie couldn’t command the Light Legion.

"You better listen to him, at least you can ensure the throne remains with your branch. Otherwise, the Light Legion really will mobilize, and you won’t be able to clear the charge of treason with the Demon Race. The noble Divine Blood Nobility turned traitor would bring shame to your Ancestral God."

Emperor Wayne of the Light Empire shook his head upon hearing this. From the bottom of his heart, he didn’t want to follow Akelie in such excessive bullying, but remembering the news brought by his Imperial Sister, even as a descendant of the Light God King in Miracle World, he didn’t dare to provoke Lynn.

The Divine Awarded Medal is no joke as it represents the extreme regard of the Light God King for him, even surpassing the descendants by blood. After all, among the numerous generations of descendants from the Light God King, only one has ever been awarded the Divine Awarded Medal.

Moreover, according to his Imperial Sister, the Divine Awarded Medal held by Lynn is not in a dormant state, proving it is not merely a family heirloom but personally held, with the Light God King’s regard being for Lynn himself, akin to the treatment of the First Emperor of the Light Empire, which these latter descendants can’t compare to at all.

"Emperor Wayne! Why are you favoring Akelie so much? Do you know the impact his current actions have on the entire Divine Protection Continent?"

"Five Emperors! Among the Eight Great Empires, accounting for the Celestial Destiny Empire, six emperors are to be replaced because of that Lynn! By the way, what about the Dragon Emperor? Why doesn’t he care about such a significant matter?"

The emperors of the Five Nations heard Emperor Wayne’s words, all appearing incredulous. They certainly knew that the Emperor of the Light Empire and the Saint Emperor of Light were in cahoots, yet their willingness to go so far for the suddenly emerging Light Divine Envoy Lynn still caught them off guard.

Mobilizing the Light Legion, what does that imply? It signifies not hesitating to cause internal war on the continent. Although the threat of the Demon Race has been reduced significantly, their overall strength still far surpasses that of the Divine Protection Continent Alliance. If a civil war erupted now, and the Demon Race took advantage of the situation, with the deities not intervening, the continent would certainly fall.

"Why bother the old dragon? What does this matter have to do with him? You five are audacious, openly challenging the Miracle Saint Emperor, disregarding the world sovereign. Next time the Demon Race attacks, see if they still rescue you Five Nations. The old dragon is waiting to watch the show unfold, ah haha..."

At this moment, the Dragon Emperor, who had been silent in the chat channel, finally showed up, and the moment his avatar lit up, his words shocked the emperors of the Five Nations into silence.

Miracle Saint Emperor? What kind of title is this? To be crowned with the name of the world, what kind of existence must that be?

On the other hand, the world sovereign is easier to comprehend. Whoever holds the title of Miracle Saint Emperor is naturally the world sovereign; there’s no debate about that.

The crux of the matter is, when the old Dragon Emperor said "not rescuing you Five Nations anymore," that "anymore" word is worth pondering over; it implies having rescued them in the past?

Who once saved their Five Great Empires?

Historically, several individuals have done so, but known figures are no longer among the living.

The unknown ones, the closest in time would be...

"Lynn is that one!?"

The Emperor of the Endless Empire exclaimed in shock.

"Which one?"

Emperor of the Lolan Empire had not yet reacted.

"Quick! Withdraw the extermination order! Immediately issue an apology statement; stop dawdling!"

The Emperor of the Eagle Empire was already sweating on his forehead. As Emperor of the neighboring Celestial Mandate Empire, he felt a chilly sensation on his neck, as if the throne could move at any moment.

"If an apology were useful, why would Akelie insist on your abdication? An empty apology won’t be accepted; you’ll need to replace five emperors to show sincerity."

The old Dragon Emperor of the Giant Dragon Empire was very glad to have learned Lynn’s identity early from the Great Elder. Although at that time he utterly disbelieved, even as the Great Elder dragon himself barely believed, thinking Natasha was merely charmed by a man.

But combining the Five Kingdom’s extermination order with the Light Church Court’s reaction, even the old Dragon Emperor couldn’t help but believe most of it. After all, Akelie is not a muscle-brained brute but the most astute Divine Mage.

Coupled with the Light Empire’s emperor expressing this stance, it can basically be fully believed that only such a World-saving Hero could garner such attention from the Light Empire, willing to go as far as waging war to coerce the Five Nations’ emperors into abdication.

"Is abdication necessary?"

Although they understood Lynn’s identity far exceeds that of a mere Light Divine Evoy, which ruling emperor at the height of his power would willingly abdicate? They could still wield power for decades; losing the throne due to a misunderstanding is difficult for anyone to accept.

"This emperor will be candid with you, Lynn possesses the Ancestral God’s Divine Awarded Medal, and it’s in a shining state."

With the conversation reaching this point, as five of the emperors among the Eight Great Empires, they ought to comprehend.

"A shining state Divine Awarded Medal..."

As the Emperor of the Sunset Empire, one of the two possessing a Divine Awarded Medal as a family heirloom, he understood the value of a non-dormant Divine Awarded Medal, which was an honor and divine favor unique to the Sunset Empire’s First Emperor.

Lynn isn’t merely a Light Divine Envoy; he should truly be a terrestrial demigod!

A man only inferior to the gods!

No, with the Divine Awarded Medal of the Light God King, he may not even be inferior to an ordinary True God...

Deities have their hierarchy; the Divine King is the King of Gods, below which is the Main God, then the Celestial God and below that the True God.

Lynn holding the Light God King’s Divine Awarded Medal may not match a Main or Celestial God, but could perhaps rival an ordinary True God.

The Ancestral Gods of the Eight Great Empires mostly were True Gods back in the day, but many have ascended since, especially the Light God.

Lynn can now be compared to ancient Ancestral Gods, a kin of Divine Blood Descendants could hardly afford to offend him.
