Chapter 71: Deity of the Past (1/2)

The freezing cold wind was blowing, and even though it wasn’t snowing, the weather was still quite gloomy.

On the roof of a conch house, Eleena who had curled into a ball from the cold looked at the frogmen on the ground that were still in prostrate position, feeling a little distressed.

Earlier that day, Edward had come to her and asked her to guide the frogmen to become believers of the God of Games, so that they could deal with any upcoming attacks from the Society of the Secret Eye better.

Eleena herself agreed with Edward’s plan, because other than the fact that the frogmen would be able to become stronger after becoming believers of the God of Games, it made the young girl quite happy to be able to expand the church even if it were just a little!

After all, she was the first zealot in Xi Wei’s church after he transmigrated in this world, and was also the saintess of the Church of the God of Games…Granted, she was still in training.

But even so, Eleena was still a child, and even though she went around battling monsters with her party for the past month or so and made her more knowledgeable of the world, but in the end, she still had the mentality of someone of her age.

And so, it was impossible for Eleena to improvise an inspiring speech like a certain warrior princess…

She didn’t know what to do, which left her in her current predicament.

“Hakuna Macroakcroak! Hakuna Macroakcroak!”

More confusing was the fact that she didn’t know what these frogmen were saying at all, and just knew that they were worshipping her for some reason.

The young girl’s ears that started ringing from the incessant croaking of the frogmen suddenly stood up on the tallest conch house of the village.

The freezing winds blew at her silver hair, and with the light at her back, she looked especially divine.

Then, the girl raised her hands and shouted as loud as she could.

“Rua—!”

This shout didn’t mean anything, she was just frustrated and irritable, and wanted to vent this unpleasant feeling in some way.

If there was a meaning to it, this girl was probably trying to say that she was ‘super scary!’.

She completely didn’t know that her cute and soft appearance and her strange actions, coupled with a simple but somewhat brainwashing call, gave the frogmen a mysterious and holy feeling like an ancient priestess.

And so, after looking at one another for a while, the frogmen all mirrored her actions and shouted.

“Rua! Rua! Rua!”

The whole scene became extremely rowdy, and it didn’t seem so much as an oath of allegiance to the gods, but more like some sort of strange ritual.

Even the party that was watching from one side was speechless. Why were these frogmen even more crackheaded than the players? Perhaps their brains were frozen because they didn’t hibernate….

Eleena: “…”

Seeing the frogmen that became even noisier than before, the light in her gaze flickered out in despair.

In his Divine Kingdom, Xi Wei who had enough of spectating on the players turned his spherical body around, and decided to continue his daily chore of severing the ties of the Rotten Bones God with the Undead Pantheon using weapons made of divine energy.

And so, Xi Wei switched on a chainsaw that was larger than his entire body, and stuck it onto the body of the Rotten Bones God, sawing it until sparks flew…
