Viktor in the sky gently moved his lips, and his calm voice was carried throughout the world by the natural bird.

His words simultaneously reached the ears of millions of demi-humans.

The sound caused countless demi-humans to look up at the sky, their eyes gleaming.

In the eyes of the demi-humans, he was not a demon who would destroy the world.

Rather, he is the savior who saves them from becoming demi-humans.

But humans naturally wouldn't accept this explanation.

Hearing this, they became even angrier.

The slave traders, in particular, stood up and pointed at Victor on the screen, cursing him loudly.

They denounced Viktor, calling him a villain.

They rebuked him for cutting off their source of income and plundering their wealth.

They naturally had no concern for the life or death of the demi-humans.

Because in their eyes, those demi-humans were nothing more than their property.

Even if they die, they should die at their hands.

However, now, all these demi-humans have been kidnapped by Victor.

Countless slave traders and nobles were extremely angry, and their denunciations rose one after another.

The chaotic sounds collided, creating utter confusion and extreme noise.

At this point, people were no longer afraid of Viktor.

They now have the backing of a high mage and several newly ascended gods, which gives them the confidence to be angry.

However, they seem to have forgotten one thing.

They supported the Archmage, and were even unafraid of Victor, all because the Archmage had protected them.

Now, Viktor's behavior is no different from that of the Archmage.

He was also protecting others.

But the difference is that he protects those demi-humans.

Therefore, these protected demi-humans are actually no different from them.

However, they still lack an object of faith.

So Victor let the anger and insults pouring in from all over the world pass by his ears.

He let those furious roars echo across the land beneath his feet and reach the ears of countless demi-humans.

Many of the subhumans, upon hearing the angry cries of the nobles who had once enslaved them,

They all pulled their necks back, protecting their scarred arms, instinctively trying to curl up.

It was as if, amidst these bursts of angry curses, they would once again experience the familiar pain.

Even with thousands of compatriots around,

They still lack a sense of security.

The demi-humans dared not resist.

Their proudest weapons are their sharp teeth and claws.

However, these self-defense weapons are useless when facing humans.

Because humanity is well aware of the dangers of these weapons.

Therefore, after capturing them, their sharp claws that could injure people are forcibly removed with steel clamps, and their sharp teeth are smashed with specially made iron bars.

Therefore, the demi-humans could not resist.

Finally, as the angry curses grew louder and louder, penetrating deep into the demi-human's heart and gradually awakening the fear hidden in their memories,

Viktor's cold, questioning voice followed.

"Grand Master, what do you think?"

"Are we just going to stand by and watch these tens of millions of lives become 'goods' that they can dispose of at will?"

His gaze calmly swept across the distance, focusing on the archmage in the air, noticing the other's calm expression and composed eyes.

Viktor sneered and said mockingly:

"You said you wanted to destroy all the gods in this world, but you became a god yourself."

"You say you want equality for all people and for all species, but in the end you only protect humans."

"You said you wanted to make this world devoid of faith and class distinctions."

He shook his head, his expression showing neither joy nor sorrow, and sneered:

"However, the people you chose to become gods for were all on your own side."

"Just because they are members of parliament, they have become gods, superior beings."

"Is Ragnarok truly intended to protect a new world, or merely to protect humanity and their interests?"

Victor's words were full of sarcasm, but the archmage did not respond.

Because Victor knew that the Archmage had no choice.

Today, the conflict between humans and demi-humans is deeply rooted.

This contradiction is not formed in a few years or a decade, but rather through the erosion of a long period of time.

It is deeply ingrained in the perceptions of both populations and cannot be eradicated.

Humans regarded demi-humans merely as slaves, beasts, or their property.

And the hatred that the subhumans harbor towards humans is something that cannot be changed.

If the Grand Mage really said a good word for these demi-humans...

Humanity worldwide would certainly be outraged and begin to question whether the Grand Master's stance was wavering or if he had other motives.

His faith will also be greatly reduced as a result.

Because this would mean that human rights are infringed, they would not tolerate demi-humans standing on the same level as them.

If there were no demi-human slaves, who would do hard labor for them?

How can human traffickers make small profits but quick turnover?

That's why humans are so hard to please.

Their thoughts are complex, otherwise the seven demons wouldn't have been created to absorb their emotions.

Similarly, it is precisely because of their greed, jealousy, and mood swings that the gods need these humans even more.

They only need a few small favors to gain a large number of people to become their followers.

This is why deities typically do not choose beings other than humans as objects of their faith.

Elves are born of nature and do not need to rely on any gods.
