Chapter 1523: Chapter 309: Pannis’s Request

"Ladies and gentlemen, I know that many of the questions I have raised, oh, including those I am about to raise, are the secrets of the Deities, which mortals should not know. However, the situation has reached a point where it is no longer time to keep secrets. To protect this world, to protect the Yarran World that we all rely on, mortals made countless sacrifices over a hundred years ago, and now, we are still ready to sacrifice countless lives, including our own. So, as the Deities whom mortals worship and admire, should you all not also make some gestures of goodwill? I understand that you are unable to enter the main world, and the Divine Kingdom of Danacus is quite special due to the presence of the Divine Barrier, preventing you from attacking, so you cannot provide us with substantial help. We understand all these points, and I also know clearly that over the years, you have given us a lot of help in secret, just not telling us. But now, I still have to seek more help from you, um, that is, more information, to ensure everyone can survive this most severe crisis." Previously, under the treatment by Lina, Pannis’s injuries had healed somewhat, although his clothes were still tattered, and he was still very weak, but he insisted on standing up and said sincerely, "So, I need to know some divine secrets, and I hope you can help me."

"Your request is very dangerous, Kyle." An awkward silence lingered for a long time before the Deity of Mercy, using Lina’s body, spoke in a low voice, "You are a clever child, and there are many things I do not need to explain to you, as you should understand them."

"Yes, I know maintaining a sufficient mystique is significant for faith, and I also know that some secrets should not be known to criminals, especially for Deities like yourselves. However, I am not a fool, I understand what questions I can ask and what I cannot, like the specific meaning of controlling rules, and the process of condensing it from rules, I would not ask about. So please rest assured, I think I will not make it too difficult for everyone," Pannis hesitated for a while but then chuckled and scratched his head adding, "Um, at least not too difficult, haha, right, not too difficult, surely everyone will not blame me."

"You child really are..." Denia, like a mother helpless against her mischievous child, shook her head half in frustration and half in amusement, "At such a time, you still can manage to laugh."

"Maintaining a smile is the best way to relieve stress." Pannis said with a smile, "These years, I have learned to keep a smile at all times, and now I finally put it to good use. Heh, if I didn’t do this, I am afraid I would have gone mad under the pressure by now."

"Well, you are the most entitled mortal to make this request. In front of you, if we still deny this request, it would simply be an insult to you and Nellie’s many years of sacrifices." After a brief silence, Denia, the only representative able to communicate directly with mortals at the scene, softened her expression and spoke gently, "The others and I just discussed, and you are right, it’s time for us to make an effort as well. However, you need to remember two things: first, if you ask about some sensitive content, we have the right to refuse to answer, just as after conclusions are drawn, you likewise have the right to refuse to do some things you don’t want to do."

"I understand, everyone has the right to refuse to do certain things, whether they are Deities or mortals." Pannis put away his smile, bowed his head and pondered for a moment, then suddenly put one hand on his chest and bowed deeply, saying seriously, "I am deeply grateful that you Deities can say such words."

"It has always been this way over the years, we will not pressure you, force you to do anything, you, no, I should say you few, you chose to make sacrifices, to do those things, and we will remember your kindness, we will thank you, yet even if you choose the other option, although we will be very disappointed, we will not blame you. We will only prepare more earnestly for the battle, as best as we can." Denia gently raised her hand, made a virtual supporting gesture, and looked over everyone present, finally resting her eyes on Pannis with a tender expression, "You need not thank us, because this is what you deserve, your actions have already earned our respect."

The attitude displayed by Denia, everyone at the scene knew what it meant, therefore every person felt an indescribable excitement swell within them. This was respect from the Deities, not only representing their recognition of these people but also indicating that they were treating everyone with an attitude of equality, not merely looking down from their divine high throne. Such an attitude of equality had been rare for millions of years, which is why Pannis expressed his gratitude so seriously.

"You all can rest assured, if my questions exceed your acceptable limits, you can bring it up anytime." Pannis said, "And Lady Denia need not say it a second time, I believe everyone present understands what needs to be done, so, we can make a vow, that everything heard today will be kept absolutely confidential."

"Clever child." Seeing everyone nod solemnly in agreement, Denia nodded in approval. She was not at all worried about anyone breaking their oath, not only because the Deities trusted the character of each individual present, but also because no one would be foolish enough to break a vow made in front of the Deities, especially in front of a group of Deities. Then Denia softly said, "So, what do you want to know?"

"First question," Pannis raised a finger and raised his voice, "the Divine Soul, compared to a mortal’s soul, what exactly is the difference?"

"Your first question already..." Denia’s expression became very peculiar, not just her, but also the mortal girls and Flare, all wore strange expressions as they looked at Pannis, clearly the question had taken them completely by surprise, even startling them.

"Okay, I didn’t ask that question properly." Pannis coughed and said, "I would like to know, can Divine Souls die? We often speak of a Deity merely falling into slumber, while another Deity has perished, that is, died, but we never truly know if Deities can indeed die, or if they just continuously sleep until certain conditions are met, after which they can wake up again."
