Salute To The General

Smythe, covered in blood, was lifted onto the spaceship. He then made a frantic and disheveled escape from Earth.

The video footage abruptly stopped.

A silence fell over the Earth Alliance Headquarters meeting.

At the conference venue, a hush ensued.

The War Gods from various nations looked first at Wolfric, then at Nathan, with no one daring to speak.

In contrast to Nathan's composed demeanor, Wolfric's face turned sour.

Glaring at Nathan, Wolfric exclaimed, "Nathan, what is the meaning of this? Your subordinates have quite the audacity, huh? How dare they refuse to hand over control of the Divine Realm?"

Nathan replied nonchalantly, "I've told you before, I personally agree to surrender the Divine Realm. The concern lies in the reluctance of the various clans in the Divine Realm. Moreover, you sent people to take control of the Divine Realm under the name of the Earth Alliance without informing me. Now that it has gone awry, how can you blame me?"

Wolfric's face turned pale with anger. "You-"

Nathan calmly continued, "When we first set out to conquer the Divine Realm, no one agreed or supported us. You ostracized the vampires. In the end, I had no choice but to lead the ostracized vampire clan to conquer the Divine Realm. Back then, I told them that once they had conquered that place, they could settle down there."

Pausing, Nathan surveyed the crowd and continued, "The expedition was successful, and they established themselves in the Divine Realm. Various races from across the universe joined them, including some of our own humans. They defeated the Gods, averting the crisis on Earth. Whether you appreciate them or not doesn't matter to them, but you must not have any intentions of taking over their new home!"

As Nathan spoke, the expressions of many present changed.

Nathan's stance was clear-no one was allowed to have designs on the Divine Realm.

Nathan's gaze sharpened, and his voice grew louder. "When they set out for the Divine Realm, it was for a home. Now, if anyone still opposes them having a homeland and wishes to harm their new home, they will continue fighting until there are no more enemies! Decide whether you want to be friends or foes; the choice is yours!"

With that, Nathan fell silent.

The War Gods from various nations began discussing among themselves in low voices.

Many felt that without Nathan and the expeditionary army, Earth would have inevitably fallen to the Gods.

Now that the expeditionary army

had conquered the Gods, resolving Earth's crisis, everyone should be grateful. Any attempt to have designs on the Divine Realm seemed unreasonable.

Moreover, the universe was vast, and Earth should not clash with the Divine Realm.

Everyone should cooperate and look forward to exploring the limitless universe for a mutually beneficial partnership that would serve the interests of both sides.

Of course, Wolfric and his allies still believed that the Divine Realm should not be solely controlled by Nathan. They wanted a share of the pie.

Wolfric began to speak slowly.

"Nathan, you conquered the Divine

Realm. You're right. We might have gone a bit too far by asking you to hand over the entire Divine Realm But for you to monopolize the Divine Realm all by yourself, that's too much for us to bear. Let's divide the Divine Realm in half - you rule one half, and we manage the other. That should work, right?"

Nathan said coldly, "Why don't you go ask the various clans of the Divine Realm? See if they agree with you!" Wolfric felt a sting.

He didn't need to ask to know that the clans in the Divine Realm wouldn't agree.

Hepburn had made it abundantly clear. There could only be one ruler in the Divine Realm, and that was Nathan.

If Nathan disagreed, it seemed like no human could set foot in the Divine Realm.

Seeing Nathan stand firm, Wolfric became a bit desperate and cursed, "Nathan, don't forget you're originally from Earth. You and your family are still on Earth. If things fall apart today, it won't be beneficial for you and your family."

This was an outright threat.
