Child of Nature: "Just as you said, in the battle thirty thousand years ago, although the Three Angel Kings—Keisha, He Xi, and Morgana—defeated Hua Ye, that didn't mean the male Angels had lost the ability to continue fighting. They were simply cowed by the battle power the female Angels displayed."
Child of Nature: "Had they chosen to kill Hua Ye, the male Angels would certainly have risen in full revolt, leading to further casualties down the line. So Queen Keisha chose a relatively moderate approach: she expelled Hua Ye from Merlot Heaven."
Child of Nature: "Later, under their leadership, the Angel Civilization developed rapidly and rose to its peak. As things stand now, the Angels possess overwhelming strength against the male Angels. If Holy Keisha had the inclination, neither Hua Ye nor any of the male Angels would be able to resist."
Child of Nature: "But she did not do so. There are three possible reasons."
Child of Nature: "First, with Morgana leading the Demon Civilization to spread evil across the known universe, Holy Keisha's attention was on Morgana. A defeated underling like Hua Ye wasn't worth her time."
Child of Nature: "It's also possible that, by then, Holy Keisha no longer had Hua Ye or the male Angels in her mind at all. Her gaze was fixed on the entire cosmos—on Justice and Order."
Child of Nature: "Under Justice and Order, as long as Hua Ye cowered on some desolate planet, not even daring to show himself, Keisha had no grounds to trouble him."
Child of Nature: "Second, not killing Hua Ye was in fact the harsher punishment."
Child of Nature: "To fall from Angel King, exalted above all, to a wretched sovereign wandering the universe—his status, his life, every treatment vastly inferior. For him, that may well have been a fate worse than death."
Child of Nature: "Lastly… they were a set of achievements Holy Keisha left behind for the next Angel Queen to claim."
Child of Nature: "But the most likely reason is that Heroes Company needed a villain. The Gluttonous Civilization was turned into free experience for the squad, Morgana started getting a wash of sympathy, Death God Karl was never going to show up in person, so Hua Ye got pushed out as the scapegoat."
Child of Nature: "Angel Civilization, Demon Civilization, and Heroes Company—three forces neatly provided with a common enemy."
Ordinary Plot: "…"
Ordinary Group Leader: "You sounded all serious and scholarly up front, but the moment you got to that last point, I knew that was the real truth!"
Given Hua Ye's everywhere-provoking, grievance-farming personality—picking fights here, taunting there, drawing aggro across the map—his hate-meter is permanently maxed. Fans don't even need to fight over which character to hate now, because they've got a shared target: Hua Ye.
Wait—would someone like Hua Ye even have fans?
Can those be called fans?
That's just a bunch of thirsty degener—!
Still, credit where it's due, Hua Ye really is envy-indu—no, infuriating!
Especially that part with Keisha. That cannot be real, right?!
Roxie distinctly remembered seeing an analysis once: after Keisha was carried off by Hua Ye, he was about to lay hands on her, but people from the Kamigawa Civilization arrived and stopped him.
That has to be it.
Yes, that's definitely it!
Otherwise, with Holy Keisha's personality, there's no way she would have let that dog of a man go!
Richest Man: "From a realistic standpoint, the second half of your first reason is probably the most likely."
Richest Man: "At the time, Holy Keisha's heart encompassed all civilizations of the known universe—she truly had the breadth and bearing of a King of Gods. Someone as petty as Hua Ye naturally wasn't worth a glance."
Richest Man: "Justice and Order is also a factor."
Even though Justice and Order was the system established by Holy Keisha, whether to follow it still depended on her. But as the King of Gods—if she herself did not abide by her own order, how could she demand that other civilizations obey it?
Umaru-chan: "But if Justice and Order bound Queen Keisha, then why did she agree to let Angel Yan lead troops to eliminate Hua Ye?"
Child of Nature: "Because the next Angel Queen is Angel Yan."
Child of Nature: "Each Angel Queen establishes the order of her era: Hua Ye with the Heavenly Palace Order; Holy Keisha with Justice and Order."
Child of Nature: "Angel Yan is likewise destined to found the order under her reign."
Uchiha Dance King: "Order is set by the strong. Angel Yan does not yet have the will of a king, but she already possesses the strength of one."
Uchiha Dance King: "Holy Keisha will not teach Yan how to act. Teach her that, and Yan remains merely Yan—not the Angel Queen. Therefore, Keisha will simply permit Yan to do as she wills."
Holy Guardian Left Wing: "You all have said quite a lot—but I still want to ask one thing."
Holy Guardian Left Wing: "Why do you all understand Queen Keisha so well?"
One after another, they analyzed with such clear logic it was as if they'd all read Keisha's mind.
Richest Man: "Guesswork."
Child of Nature: "Casual analysis."
Uchiha Dance King: "Hmph."
Holy Guardian Left Wing: "…"
Ordinary Group Leader: "@Holy Guardian Left Wing, stream the execution of Hua Ye, okay? Back when I was watching Heroes Company, I just wanted to kill him already."
Richest Man: "Exactly. So many female Angels, and I never played around half as wild as he did!"
Richest Man: "It really makes you—envi—no—jeal—no, furious!"
Uchiha Dance King: "A brittle will. Battle power infinitely weak among his peers."
Uchiha Dance King: "Without Death God Karl, he is a weakling."
Uchiha Dance King: "Even wielding great power, he remains a weakling."
Uchiha Madara held Hua Ye in utter contempt. Even if the opponent's raw power far surpassed his own, his judgment would not change.
In his eyes, no matter how great your strength, if your will is not equally great, you do not deserve to be called strong.
In Heroes Company, the only ones who earned his respect—aside from the Three Angel Kings—were Death God Karl.
They were true powerhouses whose strength and will were driven through to the end.
Electromaster: "Even if it's going to be a stomp, the spectacle should be massive, right? It is a war in space. I wanna see, I wanna see."
Umaru-chan: "Pair it with cola. Pair it with snacks. Hehehehehe."
Umaru-chan: "Hamster-happy.jpg"
Come Be My Son: "Gurararara—this stream ought to be much more entertaining than mine."
Holy Guardian Left Wing: "Since you all want to watch, I'll stream it."
Holy Guardian Left Wing: "But it won't last long."
