Chapter 622: Chapter 88: The Benevolent God Denia_1

"Are you ready mentally?" Denia’s smile receded, her gaze serious as she looked at Ava’s small voice-producing device and asked softly, "Anything else you’d like to say?"

"No." Ava replied calmly, "Transforming from a control nexus into an actual living being, that’s already a great fortune. One regret is that for over ten thousand years, I’ve been unable to experience the real world. Now there’s no chance to do so. I really wish I could have lived like a normal being with them."

"Then just go." Denia gently laughed with her hand over her mouth, "What are you thinking, silly child? Do you really think I would kill you?"

"What?" Ava, yet to return to her original form and still thinking logically, was astoundingly surprised by Denia’s words, even her voice filled with shock, "You won’t kill me?"

"Why would I kill you?" Denia asked back, tilting her head, "I am a benevolent deity, not a god of slaughter. Do you think I’m a cruel deity? Oh, right, I almost forgot. Your knowledge comes from goblin records; you don’t know me, so of course, you don’t understand what kind of deity I am."

"But didn’t my existence lead to the extinction of the goblins?" Ava asked in surprise, "The goblins who created me were divinely punished. Shouldn’t I, even more so, be obliterated?"

"First of all, the divine punishment of the goblins was not my decision. It was the collective will of somewhat more radical deities. I was never involved from beginning to end. Their issues have nothing to do with me." Denia shook her head, "Secondly, even if those deities were here, nobody would harm you."

"Creating her is a sin, but her existence isn’t?" Pannis, arms folded, called from the side. "I didn’t expect you deities to be able to differentiate so clearly."

"The goblins’ act of creating life certainly angered the deities, but it wasn’t enough to justify their extermination. In fact, the deities already knew that the goblins were attempting to create life. They merely issued warnings; they didn’t want to really do anything." Denia shook her head, "It’s just that the goblins’ actions involved many other issues. All factors combined led to the worst possible outcome. At the arrival of this child, all the deities sensed her presence."

"How is that possible?" Catherine was astonished, forgetting the deity status of the person in front of her and widening her eyes, "Deities may be great, but surely they can’t be omniscient enough to sense the birth of a child."

"Child, you don’t understand the significance of a deity-born life. Since the events of the First Epoch, whenever a deity-born life appears, the deities sense it and care deeply. When they investigated and found the newly-formed deity-born life was created by the goblins, the deities finally went mad and decided to punish the race." Sadness filled Denia’s face as she reminisced about the lost goblins, "It’s a pity I couldn’t stop them, and it’s not my place to stop them. Even I have to admit, the deities’ decision has some validity. Do you know why?"

"No one else is capable of creating deity-life." Pannis answered, "The creation of deity-life is an authority exclusive to Lord Yarra. The goblins’ creation of Ava was a desecration to Lord Yarra, right?"

"Yes, it’s because of the Father God." Denia nodded, her face filled with sorrow, "The deities admire the Father God the most, considered him the only truth of the world, consider him everything. But the goblins desecrated his authority; a behavior no deity can tolerate, which is why over 80% of the deities made the decision and unprecedentedly joined hands to unleash divine punishment. The joint effort of this divine punishment was even stronger compared to the one during the Divine War with the Triclops. I must say, the goblins surely overstepped their ground. However, even then, deities don’t misplace their anger. Ava is innocent. As a created being, she has the right to live on. So no deity would harm her. Rest assured, even if you take her outside, even if you take her for a round in each temple, she won’t be hurt."

"Okay, that wraps up their issue. Now let’s talk about both of you." Denia looked at Pannis, "Could you put away your anger for a while and lend her to me? I have some things I wish to discuss privately. After we’re done talking, if you insist, you can continue resolving the issue between you two."

"Your will, my guidance." Pannis put his hand on his chest and bowed, "We’ll wait for you outside. Do you want us to close the door?"

"Close it." Denia nodded, "Lina, this child, thankfully has a unique ability. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have a chance to enter the Yarran World in this manner of soul resonance. But this method has its weaknesses; my soul’s true form is still in the Divine Kingdom, I’m just temporarily remotely controlling her body. So the divine power I can make use of is really minimal, minimal to the point I can’t even create a barrier to block sound. So please do close the door. And don’t eavesdrop, there are too many things that should remain unknown to you."

The five of them paid respect to Denia one by one, wheeled Ava’s box out of the circular hall and closed the door from outside. As soon as they stepped out of the door, Vivian exhaled and wiped the sweat off her forehead, "Even though she looks like Lina, the pressure she gives off is just too much. Just talking for a few minutes is even tenser than going through a full day of fighting."

"You still have it easy." Freya grumbled, "I received such an oracle. If it gets out, oh dear, it’s terrifying to even think about it. None of you are allowed to tell it to anyone."

"Haha, silly Freya." Vivian laughed so hard that her body wobbled. "Who let you get so fat that even the Deity couldn’t bear to see it? Haha, I’m dying of laughter. I never thought Deity would be such an interesting entity."

After laughing for a while, Vivian’s laughter gradually subsided. She bowed her head and whispered, "Big sister, you’re not mad, are you?"

Catherine forced a smile, shaking her head, then caressed Vivian’s head, "You did this for me, why would I be mad at you? I’m just worried about what to do without this healing device in the future."

"Didn’t Lord Denia just say it?" Vivian replied breezily, "Lord Weston would never easily examine someone, let alone examine someone who has no future. This means that even without the healing device, there will be other chances in the future for me to get better. We just haven’t found the way yet."

"Let’s hope so," Catherine sighed and said, "Pannis, are you all right?"

"Me?" The silent Pannis, surprised, looked down at himself and countered, "Our fight hadn’t even started yet. What could have happened?"

"Pannis." Vivian suddenly walked over to Pannis, grabbed his sleeve, and looked up at him, "Don’t fight her when the time comes, we will go home when Lina comes back."

Pannis pressed his lips together tightly, silently looking at Vivian. Vivian looked up and smiled, "I know why you want to fight her, but there is no need. According to Lord Denia, there must be other ways to solve my problem, so you don’t need to get so upset. I don’t want you to risk your life fighting such a formidable enemy for me. For my sake, don’t fight her anymore. Let’s go home."

"Okay," Pannis said, "we will go home."

"You’re obviously lying to me." Vivian pouted her mouth, pointing towards the circular hall, "Dare you swear in front of the Lord in there, not to fight Sigein and just come home with us?"

Pannis coughed twice and before he had a chance to explain, his eyebrows suddenly raised in astonishment as he turned his gaze towards the circular hall. The three girls also sensed something and turned their heads to look at the same place. A formidable aura emanated from the circular hall, making one’s heart sink with discomfort. This aura was nothing like the subtle intimidating power when Denia controlled Lina with a psychic resonance, it was a solid and substantial pressure.

Accompanied by this pressure, was a faint and ethereal hymn that seemed to drift from everyone’s ears, with its source impossible to track down. Along with the hymn, a multicolored light emanated from the circular hall. From the sky appeared a phantom image of a blood-stained dagger, the symbol of the vengeance deity.

Pannis’ face was unreadable as he stared at the scene, speaking solemnly, "Remember this moment. Many generations may never witness such a scene in their lifetime."

"What is that?" The girls stared dumbfounded. Catherine stuttered in question, "What happened in there?"

"It’s the succession of the theocracy," Pannis sighed and helplessly relaxed, "You witnessed the birth of a new god. The last recorded emergence of a new god was three thousand years ago."

"You mean, Sigein has accepted the Divine Duty of the god of vengeance?" Freya asked in surprise, "Isn’t she afraid that her enemies will take this opportunity to discover her?"

"I don’t know about that," Pannis shook his head, "I do know that I won’t need to swear now, as there is no opportunity for me to confront her over our previous issues."

Before Pannis could finish speaking, all the voices and lights disappeared as abruptly as they had appeared. The heavy pressure also dissipated, as if it had never existed. The doors of the circular hall slowly opened, and Denia, borrowing Lina’s body, emerged, smiling gently, "You guessed right. If you want to see her again, I’m afraid it will take a very, very, very long time." (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote for it and support it on Qidian.com.
