As the loyal subordinate of the God of Fear, perhaps the only loyal subordinate, Hasarin, the God of Shadow and Assassination, had always been wondering how to save her boss.

It was definitely impossible to save him from the execution ground. She was just a mid-level Divine Power. Even if she was a great Divine Power, it was also impossible. The two great Divine Powers had joined hands, but they had still been defeated by the Void Mask. If she wanted to save him from the execution ground on her own, she would need to change her body at first. She needed to change into the Master of Order, the greater Divine Power. Or she could pick up a stone on the side of the road, and it happened to be a deity fragment left by one of the other three greater Divine Powers.

Such things just existed in her imaginations. Hasarin was a pragmatic god, so what she thought about was how to use a non-forceful method to save the God of Fear.

Honestly, this was an impossible task.

Hasarin wasn’t a wise god, so she changed her idea. I am not wise enough, then I’ll find a wise person to help me!

Therefore, her avatar sneaked into the mortal world and found six officials who were engaged in legal work. She also found two scholars who studied history, hoping to get solutions from those professionals.

Because she needed to disguise her identity, she didn’t dare to use Divine Power. She could only seduce those people with ordinary money, treasures, and even beauty. It was lucky that gods were free to change their appearances. Otherwise, with her face which was as pale as a dead person and her malnourished figure, her “beauty” might have an adverse effect.

After many inquiries, Hasarin finally found a way.

There were two kinds of laws. One was that “the things that are not permitted by laws are illegal,” and the other one was that “the things that are not prohibited by laws are not illegal.” For civilians, the former one was usually used, and the aristocrats usually used the latter one. As for the kings, they didn’t need to follow laws, because they were above the laws.

Since the God of Fear had become a prisoner, then the principle “kings didn’t need to obey laws” couldn’t be used. However, it inspired those smart professionals to come up with a good idea. Since ancient times, all laws had been established to restrain mortals, and no laws had ever been about gods. Since there were no laws about gods, then it didn’t matter whether gods committed crimes or not.

In other words, whatever gods did were not crimes.

Hasarin didn’t know whether this method could be used to save His Majesty, and she didn’t know what would happen after he was clear from a charge. However, she had no time to think about that, because the public hearing had almost come to an end.

So even though she knew that the hope was little, she still used the method she had prepared for a year.

Hearing her words, the gods were stunned at first, and then they began to talk about it.

“What she said seems right. There are no laws about us gods.”

“Definitely. It is true that laws are also applicable. There is a famous saying in the mortal world, and it said ‘kings will never be illegal.’ Another principle can be estimated in the same manner. Of course, gods will never be illegal.”

“Yeah, after all, gods are much nobler than kings!”

Those words were said by the gods of the Neutral Camp.

“A bit bad! They caught the blind spot!”

“Yes, no matter in the past or at present, there are no articles about sanctioning gods in any laws.”

“There was no such thing that happened before. So what should we do?”

“At least, I can’t think of a way, so I’m afraid we can just try hard to think of one.”

“In my mind, there shouldn’t be a public hearing. Just kill that bastard directly, and the world will be peaceful again!”

“Ugh! Who would have thought of such an accident!”

According to their attitudes, they were good gods.

“Well, this time we can have some fun!”

“If you want to be a prostitute, don’t pretend to be a virgin in public. You want both fame and fortune, but how can you be so lucky!”

“Although we have suffered a big loss this time, we can see this good show. It is a bit comforting.”
