Squeak—
Pat…
Pitter-patter…
Rain curtains fell, water droplets hitting the ground.
Looking around, the sky was gloomy, and a thick atmosphere filled the wilderness.
On the dark purple earth, a massive city constructed of obsidian slowly creaked its doors open amidst a strained grinding noise. Countless raindrops landed on it, then slid down along the patterns carved in the stone gates.
Enshrouded in a cloak made from monster leather, Zeus emitted an aura that kept others at bay.
Following the surging ‘demon current’ into the towering city, the Divine King observed his surroundings.
Thanks to the presence of the Lord Seal, the guarding demons did not trouble him. Thus, without any hindrances, Zeus entered the city established deep within the Abyss.
Tall pillars and rough architectural style, with blood dispersed by the rain—not as refined as any city in the Mortal Realm, but it had an authority and solemnity that was perhaps even greater.
This place was now identified as [862-11-Thunder Pool], greatly different from other interfaces he had traveled through; this interface, with its Origin strength close to Myriad Abyss Plains, gave Zeus a peculiar feeling.
For instance, the relative Order here, and the primitive city.
All the Abyss Demons Zeus had encountered on his way from the depths were mostly irritable and impulsive. Even if he occasionally saw some buildings similar to those in the Mortal Realm, they were often private properties of Demon Lords.
Only this place was different. When he truly stepped into the Abyss Interface known as [Thunder Pool], the Divine King suddenly discovered that this place’s Law was markedly different from other areas of the Abyss.
There was significantly less blood and malevolent aura in the air, and even the local demons born in this realm seemed much more rational than their brethren.
So much so that though still difficult to manage, these mad demons at least understood to value their lives more than their unrestrained desires.

Thus, cities that were almost never seen in other interfaces astonishingly existed here, and under the suppression of powerful auras faintly emanating from within the city, nearby demons seemed to have learned manners, at least knowing not to recklessly slaughter within the city.
Zeus didn’t know how this was achieved, but he didn’t care too much about it.
After all, demons who abided by rules were still demons; they were just a bit more lucid compared to their own kind, not freed from their insane nature.
Comparatively speaking, if he really had to mention interest, the Divine King was rather curious about the unique environment of [862-11-Thunder Pool].
Not because of its clouds and rain, but because of the origin of the name, [Thunder Pool].
As you know, although thanks to the integration of Muspelheim, the Abyss had a greater tendency towards Fire, with the integration of Hemenu, the indigestible ‘Water Phase’ also flowed into the Abyss.
For example, in one of the interfaces he passed through, Zeus entered a world composed entirely of pure water. But ‘Thunder Essence’… he truly hadn’t heard of other creatures possessing this power.
Whether in the present world or the Abyss, it seemed as if it bespoke his unique position as the Destined Divine King—Zeus had never seen a second Deity in charge of Thunder, yet this journey into the Abyss coincidentally led him to encounter two.
One was naturally Thor from the Alien Realm, and the other was the Thunder Pool at the center of this interface.
“Maybe thousands of years ago, or perhaps tens of thousands of years ago—these Abyss demons really have no concept of Time. Even if the Chronology here differs from the outer world, they should still try to calculate it somehow.”
“Anyway, one day, a grand and magnificent Strength fell from the Void, plummeting into the then-barren center of [682-11].”
“At that time, the world had nothing, having only just been catalytically produced by Tartarus’s excessive Source Power. However, after that day, this fledgling interface underwent a transformation.”
“Even the Mother of Demons, an anomaly among the creatures here with unparalleled beauty and the Ancestor of Abyss Demons, descended from beyond the heavens. She brought with her the grand Abyss Will to this place, and her condescension brought care and vitality to this nascent interface.”
“The ‘Thunder Essence’ that significantly differed from the original powers of the Abyss thus appeared on this world’s soil, and at the center of [682-11], a vast, roiling Thunder Pool rose.”
“Even in the six hundredth year after the creation of the Thunder Pool, a naturally born Demon God emerged from it. So evil and powerful was it, possessing schemes and machinations unlike other Demon Gods, that within just a few thousand years, it unified this layer of the Abyss that had attracted not just one Demon God’s attention, and even counterattacked several rival territories, or tore apart their realms to enhance the Origin of [682-11].”
“Gradually, the old true name of this layer was forgotten, and instead, another name was etched into its essence.”
“[682-11-Thunder Pool], named after the place its master emerged from. And the goals of this Demon God, now self-styled as the ‘Demon Prince’, became ever more grandiose, seeing itself as the future ruler of the Abyss.”
“However, it has also encountered a problem recently…”
Walking on an avenue filled with exotic styles, a series of messages related to this realm flashed through Zeus’s mind.
A demon born of Thunder… truly very rare. Even listening to the other’s origins, Zeus felt a peculiar familiarity.
