“To accompany you guys to the Hell Tower?”
After hearing the witch Shelly’s words, all the kings of hell were obviously unwilling to do so. The Hell Tower contained a total of eighteen floors. Each floor was boundless and perilous. Even if the kings of hell had to pay a price after entering it. If they were unlucky, they might die inside. There had been cases of kings of hell dying in the Hell Tower.
“Ahem. A place like the Hell Tower is really unsuitable for us old people to go in, so we won’t go in.”
“Yes. Yes. We are kings of hell. Go to the Hell Tower? Where is the decency?”
King Urban asked, “You just said that Revealer Maha is related to the survival of the three thousand worlds. What is this all about?”
“Dairaionji Temple is currently under control of the evil Buddhism. The great ancient demon of the Chi universe may be behind it Now, it is devouring the Starnest Nodes of the three thousand worlds. Once Dairaionji Temple devours all the Starnest Nodes, everything will cease to exist…”
Shelly explained the severity of the matter once again. The few kings of hell were wide-eyed after hearing that.
If this matter is true, then it would be a great deal.
Alex asked, “What did Revealer Maha do to offend Emperor Ghast?”
“Uhm…”
The ten kings of hell were at a loss for words, as if it was a completely unspeakable taboo.
Shelly shouted angrily, “Why don’t you say it quickly? Revealer Maha is the key now. However, Revealer Maha was assigned by Dairaionji Temple to come to the nether realm to become an official. It’s quite possible that he is also a puppet of Dairaionji Temple. This is very important. There is no room for concealment. Hurry up and say it immediately, or else I will pull out all your big beards.”
The kings of hell had a change of expression upon hearing that. It seemed to be an unpleasant memory.
He had never thought a woman would sit on the throne of Emperor Ghast. ‘No. What did he mean by ‘incumbent’? Could it be that Emperor Ghast did not refer to a specific person, but it was term-based like a president?’
Voting and election had to be held once the term was up?
Shelly, who seemed to have seen through Alex’s question, explained, “Emperor Ghast is indeed term-based. Normally, a term lasts for ten thousand years. Once the term is up, his whereabouts will be decided based on his performance. Meanwhile, the current Emperor Ghast was elected by multiple forces through voting.”
As expected, even the nether realm kept pace with the times and a voting system was used. Then, he even heard that the kings of hell were appointed on a rotational basis.
The kings of hell had a shorter term. A term only lasted for five thousand years. If a king of hell died prematurely or died a violent death in the middle of the term, then there would be reserve kings of hell. Someone exceptional would be selected among the kings of hell to become the new king of hell.
Not only did Alex rack his brains after hearing about such a novel matter, even Blaze, who had come to nether realm for many years, heard it for the first time.
