章節 208: INTERLUDE. Ask the maker

When it came to distracting God of Monks from seeking answers that would've sent him towards Devourer sooner than he would be ready, God of Rogues was ingenious in his methods, and as elusive as his name implied.

For two days, he researched the reports of his spies, checked on Devourer's progress, and prepared for his next venture. Then, just as a loyal servant passed him a note that God of Monks was approaching his residence, God of Rogues descended to the mortal realm, "forgetting" to leave any hint of where he could be for anyone who might look for him.

The mortal realm was a vast place. Ten gods couldn't find a single demon out there—what were God of Monks' chances of finding him? If he even decided to search. It wasn't hard to find out that, when presented with a choice between finding out an answer and staying to guard his appointed post, God of Monks chose the latter. Duty. Or maybe it was the unwillingness to leave his orderly realm.
