Synopsis[]
Alda survived the war between the great gods of Lambda 100,000 years ago. He is displeased with the unjust interference from Rodcorte, yet he maintains the world, when news reaches him that someone has appeared to destroy a soul, something only the Demon King Guduranis could have done.
Summary[]
Things have not been going favorably for Alda's beloved Lambda the past few 10 000 years. He discusses Rodcorte's notion regarding the world's 'inferior development' with his right-hand man, which his faction had dismissed as a vague meaningless complaint. "The development and passing on of culture and art, the stable continuation of a civilization. These are very wonderful things." But they consider these to be times of war. "The first thing that needed to be prioritized was the battle against the evil gods, the monsters and the races created by Vida."
Alda has however realized Rodcorte's true intentions: a population growth; letting more souls pass through his Transmigration cycle, and in turn strengthening his authority. Something Alda is not particularly interested in, since it's more challenging to maintain order with a lot of people. Alda admires science and technology that does not require magic, but questions the need for it in Lambda. "In fact, the existence of those things caused the destruction of nature for the sake of generating energy. Were they not also the causes of some wars and conflicts? (…) So why should the seeds of disaster from other worlds be planted in this one to add to that?"
He decides to send a Divine Message to some capable believers, to specify that they should prioritize the extermination of the Evil Gods, instead of the less problematic Vida's races. Which resulted from his last messages being twisted in the interpretation process. Alda will also be supporting the people in planning how to deal with Vida's races, while taking care of the demons at the same time.
He would also like some more subordinate gods to help him manage his attributes. After looking through the two candidates (Gordan and Heinz), he tells Curatos to notify Rodcorte of these two individuals. (Alda is still unaware that Vandalieu is an isekai reincarnator.) Alda reflects on how the conflict with Vida had started, and what he could've done differently, when Curatos returns informing of the demise of Yupeon's Spirit Clone, indicating the presence of a Demon King.
