Chapter 120: Have Any of You Seen A Peacocks Butt? (2/2)

Meanwhile, Angora seemed to realize that his reaction was too obvious, and played nonchalance after a moment of reflection. “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”

“Should I have been clearer? It’s to do with a ‘god’.” Cecil said quietly with a dark smile.

Angora frowned. Could Cecil be talking about the God of Games?

Right now, Angora was aware that the God of Games was a heretical deity in the perspective of several other religions. It was what led to the fall of Tierra after all, and if news that the God of Games had returned was leaked, things would not end well for his town. After all, the Players were still too young and tender to square off against the major churches which had almost a thousand years of history.

However, if it was in the past, Angora would probably have become flustered and exposed himself in some way, but after having fed on his experience as an Overlord Player since his arrival in the unnamed town, Angora was no longer the coward punchbag Cecil remembered.

In a single split second, he planned for the worst.

There were still two or three years before Cecil would inherit their father’s title given Horan’s good health, and there was no way the experienced churches would mount an expedition with the word of a duke’s son as their only proof.

Angora was also very optimistic about how far those Players could develop in those two or two years. He had seen them start from zero—not only had their level increased continuously, their numbers were proactively increasing with the motivation from the weekly quest [The Lord’s Light Illuminates the Land].

Now, they were already more than two hundred and counting…

Be that as it may, all of that was dependent on Cecil not having proof. On the other hand, should his eldest brother have something that could prove the revival for the God of Game’s Church, it was foreseeable that those major churches would lay waste to the little town!

And there was only countermeasure to handle that.

Keeping a straight face, Angora opened his System which the others couldn’t see and then the Player forums to assign a task Gou Dan and the rest of the Players, instructing them to infiltrate Cecil’s castle to ascertain whether his elder brother had proof that could threaten the town.

Meanwhile, Cecil spoke arrogantly, believing that he had overwhelmed Angora given the latter’s long silence. “You would never get it (the divine relic) to work. It would be better if you give it up.”

“I have no idea what you’re talking about, but you don’t have to worry about my affairs (religion), brother.” Angora coldly answered his eldest brother.

They hence stood off each other while miscommunicating for a while, before parting unhappily.
