For example, the Water Source God.
This deity is merely a middle-level god, but her hands are stained with the blood of countless humans.
She could not expect that after the Magic Empire won this war, they would ever spare her.
So, upon sensing the Thunder God's wailing, she was the first to strike.
She was even repeatedly sending messages to other deities.
"We can't afford to foolishly delay any longer! We must make that damned Magic Emperor's trial end in total failure. Only if he fails can we drive him out of our world!"
The deities of this world, in some sense, really are nothing more than ignorance and unwillingness personified.
But that doesn't mean they're so stupid that they lack even the most basic logic.
For a deity like the Water Source Goddess, only by clinging to such extravagant hopes could there be even the slimmest chance at survival.
