Chapter Vol. 3 Ch. 164
“Sethlin, are you okay?”
Violet greeted the green-haired and green-eyed girl who had already separated from her and was now floating in the air on her own. Sethlin’s current form was very solid, and if it weren’t for the green-colored deity still floating below, she would have looked no different from having fully restored her physical body.
After transforming into a new god, she was no longer the remnant of the Goddess of Earth that had been sealed away.
“Well... don’t worry. Although I feel a bit melancholic, this was our goal from the beginning. Withering... did so many terrible things, so this outcome is only natural.”
Sethlin sighed.
“I just didn’t expect that her obsession would run so deep, that she would rather go to such lengths to fight against the world’s malice. I really... can’t believe I went along with her madness...”
The priestess remained noncommittal.
“Didn’t she say it herself? Ultimately, she’s a god who split from the original. And given the circumstances before, there wasn’t a better solution, was there?”
“Speaking of which, what would have happened if we hadn’t sealed Seth in that state just now?”
After pondering for a moment, the newly minted Goddess of Life spoke with a somewhat uncertain tone.
“The world is filled with various forms of malice, and I cannot be certain, but from the memories and information shared by the withering, it seems that the scene just now was probably the world preparing to summon ‘Conquerors’ from another world to forcibly confront the Goddess of Earth entangled in evil karma.”
“Wow... That means...”
“What does it mean?”
Sethlin tilted her head in confusion.
“Uh, never mind, never mind. Oh, right! You mentioned earlier that there were issues with the technologies provided by the Abyss. What exactly are those issues?”
Although the attempt to change the subject was worrying, the gaze of the Goddess of Life also became slightly strange, but Violet’s question indeed caught her attention.@@@@
“I’m not sure how to put it, Violet. Do you remember our previous discussion about ‘information pollution’?”
“Ah, you mean...”
Lucas, the Guardian of the Celestial Realm, suppressed Rosa, the half-dragon who had shrunk back to legendary status due to the disappearance of the gods and the resealing of the Withering authority, waiting silently in the corner.
Seeing the black-haired girl and the dragon girl returning from the sky, the golden-armored warrior immediately strode over, kneeling down on one knee, and spoke in his usual neutral tone.
“My lord, the task you entrusted has been completed. However, this fellow... halfway through the fight, it inexplicably weakened, which is a bit strange.”
Because Violet hadn’t explicitly stated whether to kill it or not, Lucas had only knocked Rosa unconscious and thrown him to the ground. Miss Priestess also didn’t intend to deal with this fellow personally, leaving it for the Feathered Emperor Estini to handle on her own.
“Well done, you’ve worked hard.”
Violet was about to dismiss Lucas when she suddenly remembered something Sethlin had said before.
The heavens... and for some reason, they had suddenly become functional in this game of true divinity and divine realms. Curious, Miss Priestess decided it wouldn’t hurt to ask a bit more.
“Lucas, what is the Celestial Realm like that you mentioned?”
“?”
As expected, the golden-armored warrior looked puzzled for a moment, then after some thought, cautiously replied.
“I’m not entirely sure what you mean. If you’re referring to the guardians’ daily routines, like normal life, battles... and so on, I’m sorry, could you be more specific?”
For a creature living in its own world and not having seen much of other places and customs, this question might seem strange.
Well, it’s okay. I can research it slowly when I have time.
After canceling the summoning, Violet had the dragon girl carry Rosa, who was unconscious, and they left the temple that had lost its protective barrier together.
As of now, it’s still unclear why Minerva initially claimed herself as the Sky God, what exactly happened during the sealing of the Abyss and the Twilight Battle.
However, although she learned that the Sky God was merely the Goddess of Earth’s archangel and had fallen during the Twilight War, unable to provide Violet with answers, she now had new clues.
Those beings from beneath the Abyss that originally released the Goddess of Withering Seth are definitely not individuals. They clearly have an organized structure, and they even have the support of the Abyss, which is the overall name for this world known as Avis.
The specifics still need to be investigated, but whether it’s releasing the sealed God-made Beasts or the attacks known as “Doomsday Bombardment” unleashed from the Abyss, as referred to by Sethlin, it’s evidently strong evidence of this.
Let’s discuss this further with Sethlin later on.
