Chapter 51: Outsourcing is Really Reliable, Let’s Do It Again!
As Trilobite went through a painful change, getting ready to meet the "old friend," a fight broke out outside this world.
The whole Crystal Walls system looked like a huge swamp.
Many bubbles came up from the muddy ground, each forming a "Bubble World" with similar rules inside. Beyond these Bubble Worlds was a swamp made of endless "Primal Mud," and above it, the "Void."
The weird world—Subspace—grew out of the endless "Primal Mud," sending out branches and dimensions into the endless void.
The hellish Abyss, home to chaotic demons, was one "area" in this Subspace.
Now, in this messy place, a messy argument was happening.
"Wabla!"
"The deity in charge of running this world for the Time of the End should have been me! Not you!"
A voice as lovely as a goddess spoke up again; but this time, the woman’s tone wasn’t sweet—it was full of rage.
Even if someone recorded this lady’s angry voice and put it on some anime fan sites, many fans would still post things like "Lady, shame me," "Lady, yell at me," or "Lady, step on me."
But the Chaos Demon God named "Wabla" didn’t get anime culture at all.
He wasn’t excited and was just feeling smug.
"You asked for this! Your mistake made the sea god die."
"I worked hard and used lots of stuff to win over that spy from the Order-side."
"With him gone, we only have that one surprise person left, plus a few who might help! It’s a big loss!"
"To stop pulling up radishes and dragging mud with them, I spent ages fixing your mess and hid it all."
"You can’t join this ‘Time of the End,’ you can’t bury this world—that’s what the Chaos Council decided."
"Even if your seat is a bit higher than mine, it doesn’t matter."
"After all, we’re not the lowest rank, not the back row, and not the top twelve; our ranks differ, but our power is the same."
"I accused you to the Chaos Council, and that followed the rules!"
"And you, by the rules, took the probe, stayed out of trouble, and got moved from this world—that’s fair."
The Chaos Council had seventy-two seats, but except for the two lowest ranks, ten back-row members, and the twelve core councilors, the other core councilors had similar power, no matter their rank.
At least, that was the idea.
Ranks tied to things like stuff, fight power, wins, fame, and strength, but not always; often, it was about politics, tricks, and power games, seen and unseen.
So even though rank was just a "prize," the chaos gods fought over it a lot.
This time was the same.
Wabla had been mad at this "gorgeous" demon god for a long time.
He couldn’t see how this fake female demon could rank above him.
So, he got proof to "set her up."
Maybe this female demon god had many foes in the council, and the "plot points" added up fast, so her boot-out plan passed quickly.
Naturally, the female demon god was furious.
"This is slander!"
"I did the job perfectly with little cost!"
"This matter… the Chaos Council has accepted it!"
"That ‘Giant God’ was beheaded, its strange skull is in…"
But the female demon god’s defense was cut short.
"Hahaha…"
"Yes, yes, it’s slander."
"Everyone knows you got that strange deity’s head."
"Everyone knows Sea God Agor’s fall might be the God of Order’s last fight or an Outer God who went mad."
"But so what?"
"Anyway, the sea god was attacked and fell—that’s a fact!"
"If everyone says that deity did it, then they did!"
"If everyone says they’re not fallen, then they’re not; your proof is worthless!"
"It’s just that too many on the council hate you!"
The female demon god was helpless.
"Despicable!"
She cursed angrily.
"Hahaha, thanks for the praise!"
"By the way…"
Wabla said mockingly, "Your idea to hire Outer Gods to clean the ocean floor is good."
"Let the unstable clear out the more unstable; I’ll do it!"
"And I found out who you hired last time!"
"Blood Octopus Outer God, right?"
"They do a solid job."
"I’ll give them this job too!"
"Then…"
"All your work and wins in that world will be mine!"
"Hahahaha…"
Laughing, the core councilor Wabla left, leaving the female demon god full of hate and regret.
"Wabla!"
"I curse you as Gimmerly, demon god of the Chaos Council’s 56th seat! May terrifying monsters devour you!"
But no one heeded her curse.
Even the person involved, Wabla, did not take it to heart.
Because, although the chaos gods could curse and manipulate mortals at will, the price for controlling their fate and causality was very light for the Chaos deities.
However, if they genuinely wished to curse a deity of the same level, the invisible fate would make them pay an equal price!
In short, such an extreme one-for-one situation…
"Even the craziest of deities would not do that."

Meanwhile, deep in the sea, a familiar confrontation unfolded.
"Look! Look!"
"He changed! He’s different!"
"Yes! Yes! Strange! Strange!"
"But still fierce! Fierce!"
The vampire squids, resembling little flying elephant octopuses, flapped their ear blade-like fins and swam back.
This time, they kept away from Trilobite.
They knew getting too close into that guy’s magic range meant being "charmed"—diving straight into his jaws.
But now, they were ready.
"We brought a new fighter! Super strong! Super strong!"
"Strong! Strong!"
"Fight! Fight now!"
"You fight! We steal! Steal!"
…
Learning from last time, these vampire squids brought no weaklings—just one powerful fighter!
"GIAO——!!!!!!!!"
A shrill roar and tentacle thrashing echoed, screaming its fury and madness.
Its huge, spiked shell drifted through the sea while countless thin tentacles writhed—enough to creep out anyone.
This creature already measured half again Trilobite’s length!
Its enraged eyes fixed on the slowly swimming form before it, heralding final judgment’s arrival!
