After Wolfric spoke, Eiken, Tyrell, and others immediately chimed in one after another.
"Exactly! That's what we want! Nathan, it's time for you to step down. Let us manage the Divine Realm!"
"That's right, Nathan! Make your stance clear. Do you want to monopolize the Divine Realm, or would you rather step down gracefully?"
Unfazed by the clamor of Eiken and his gang, Nathan remained unmoved.
He turned his head toward Zach, Leopold, and the rest of the group who had yet to express their stance and asked, "What about you guys? What's your stance on this matter? Do you share the same sentiment as them?"
Zach was the first to stand up and express his stance, "Eurasia and I respect your choice, Mr. Cross. No matter what you choose, we will support you."
As he said those words, he immediately drew the displeased gazes of Wolfric and others.
However, it was certain that Eurasia was supporting Nathan, so their attitude toward Zach was not surprising.
The War God of Wallera, Thomas, declared, "Queen Dido has stated that we will support Mr. Cross unconditionally!"
Following closely, several War Gods expressed their respect for Nathan's decision, unwaveringly believing in Nathan and supporting any choice he made.
Very quickly, it was Leopold's turn to express his stance.
Leopold found himself in an awkward situation.
While he maintained a good relationship with Nathan, he also desired a share of the Divine Realm. However, he was not willing to confront Nathan directly.
In the end, after a long moment of hesitation, he indicated his decision to abstain from taking a stance.
The allies of Remdik also successively declared their abstention, indicating their choice to remain neutral on this matter.
This greatly irritated Wolfric.
"Leopold, since you've given up on pursuing the interests of the Divine Realm, don't be envious when we secure those interests for ourselves!" Wolfric said coldly.
Leopold shrugged, neither agreeing nor disagreeing with him.
He was actually quite shrewd.
To contest with Nathan for the benefits of the Divine Realm was no different from counting one's chickens before they hatched. Naturally, he wouldn't risk offending Nathan by getting involved.
Wolfric was ecstatic. He was just about to speak when Nathan continued, saying, "However, I fear that the various clans of the Divine Realm won't agree to this arrangement!"
That one sentence alone caused the smile on Wolfric's face to freeze in place.
Vincent, who was beside him, could no longer hold back his frustration and yelled, "Stop playing games, Nathan! What do you mean you're willing to surrender the Divine Realm, but the various clans of the Divine Realm do not agree? Could such a significant matter really be left to those guys to decide?"
Wolfric squinted his eyes at Nathan as he said coldly, "That's right! The various clans in the Divine Realm are nothing more than vampires, some human mercenaries, and space pirates! What could the vampires and mercenaries amount to in the face of the War Gods from various nations on Earth? The Gods are a defeated army! As for the various clans of space pirates, they have even less right to comment or criticize. As long as you're willing to relinquish the Divine Realm, Nathan, we will send our men to take over!"
Before Nathan even had the chance to speak, Vincent continued with a sneer, "I'll be honest with you, Nathan.
We have already dispatched a spaceship carrying our Shadow Wing Squad. They're already on their way to the Divine Realm. We anticipate that they will soon reach the Divine Realm, ready to take over it. If you are wise enough to willingly relinquish your control over the Divine Realm now, we can both avoid a lot of trouble."
What? Ariarica has already dispatched a spaceship headed toward the Divine Realm?
Moreover, the squad heading toward the Divine Realm was none other than God Warriors, the latest creation from Ariarica's most recent Project Genesis.
Suddenly, the entire room was in an uproar.
