Divine wars were like this: in every aspect, countless tiny details determined success or failure.
A god's influence and strategic arrangements encompassed every facet. The battle within the Astral Realm was merely the most superficial part.
When Naimus swung his sword, divine power did indeed surged forth, forming a terrifying attack. Yet behind that strike lay the spread of poison through faith, the interference with and destruction of his Church upon the Material Plane, sudden disruptions at crucial points while following the operation of his rules, and the attention of enemy gods being drawn away by other arrangements.
Gods fought like this. Behind every move and technique lay countless calculations.
At this moment, Naimus's strength was fully revealed. Countless changes turned within the process, as though a single sword strike contained ten thousand variations.
Countless divine runes flowed across the God of Precepts's body as various Precepts circulated, forming layers of protection.
Previously, he had joined forces with the God of Bestowal and various other gods to besiege Naimus. Naimus could only rely on the flexibility brought by his control over change to evade them. This was the first time he had counterattacked.
The God of Precepts was not surprised. Instead, he felt increasingly reassured, knowing that he had truly begun to touch upon Naimus's predicament.

His opponent was simply too strange. Whether it was his way of thinking or the various abilities and knowledge he possessed, all of it exceeded the limits of the God of Precepts's understanding.
