Sea God's Palace.
Poseidon and Zeus were sitting on the ground.
"Big brother, the Cosmic Entity wants me to kill either Elric or Lucien," Poseidon said after returning.
Instead of acting against Elric immediately, he called Zeus and shared everything he had witnessed in the battle of the Cosmic Entity's guardians.
"Do you not want to kill?" asked Zeus.
"Of course not!" Poseidon replied, his face wearing a peculiar smile.
He was well aware that their conversation might very well be known to the Cosmic Entity.
Poseidon had no intention of avoiding the Cosmic Entity.
The Cosmic Entity sees high-ranking god-kings as pawns.
With his eyes closed, Zeus said lightly, "Didn't the Cosmic Entity say that killing Elric could help our master?"
Poseidon stared at Zeus and asked, "Do you believe what the Cosmic Entity says?"
Zeus opened his eyes and said, "I'd rather trust a dog."
