Now, upon receiving a bounty request on the [The Divine Devil], the World Devourer didn't know what to do, metamorphically.
It knew that it had no other choice but to fight against the being mentioned by the Divine Laws, but at the same time, it also knew that it would really die if it fought off against the being, if he is as strong as the scriptures had mentioned. Due to how the being mocked and belittled it, it didn't consider the being was worth allying with, hence it had no choice but to take the easier way out, which was to defeat all the other opponents around the being mentioned by the scriptures and try to intimidate the being into giving up.
