Chapter 719 The Goddess of Magic is Also a Great Woman of Letters
A beautiful woman wearing a long, light green dress was in front of him.
She seemed as mature and charming as Andonara, but with a little more holiness and gentleness than Andonara.
“Lady Elyse, the Life Goddess?”
Roland asked with a somewhat puzzled tone, but on the inside, he already knew that this was the woman’s name.
“It seems that you can already see my appearance.” The Life Goddess smiled faintly.
Next to her, two angels descended, both of whom Roland knew.
Nia was wearing a loose one-piece robe, with a pair of beautiful feathered wings behind her, as white as snow.
After she landed, she winked at Roland.
It was only logical that angels should be pure creatures.
But her wink seemed somewhat coquettish.
Roland wondered if he had spent too much time tossing around women recently, making them all look like Andonara.
“I can indeed see it.” Roland had closed the livestream at this time, and he asked, “Your face looked blurry to me before.”
The Life Goddess was the strongest and had the most stable Divine Spark among all the gods.
So Roland hadn’t been able to look at her directly in the truest sense until now.
“That situation just now scared you, didn’t
it.”
“A little.” Roland nodded. “Why were your reactions so great?”
“I should say, it’s not normal not to react so greatly.” The Life Goddess smiled. “In fact, in the past, the gods in the Realm of Gods did not care much about the affairs of Mages, not until the appearance of the Mages Mordenkainen and Melf.”
“Did they do anything?” Roland asked.
Roland knew that Mordenkainen and Melf were enemies of the gods.
But he didn’t know how it got to that point.
“Actually, things are not that hard to understand.” The Life Goddess said helplessly, “Whether it was Mordenkainen or Melf, after they invented powerful spells, the first thing they did was throw these spells at the gods they could find to prove if they could slay them. There was no hesitation at all.”
Roland was speechless.
He had felt puzzled for a long time. Legendary Mage Mordenkainen and Demigod Mage Melf… although these two people were from different eras, they had one thing in common—they both had no more enemies in the main plane. Even if the gods descended, under the suppression of the main plane’s laws, the gods couldn’t rival them.
Mordenkainen’s floating city and Melf’s fearsome strength were how they could stand on top of the world.
It was only the Water Goddess’s true form that could make these two feel somewhat fearful.
Sadly, though, the Water Goddess was, by nature, a bit of a fool.
Only stupid gods would go to the main plane to quarrel with these two people.
Tales and legends were unreliable most of the time.
From Roland’s point of view, the Life Goddess didn’t need to bother with lying about these things, so that meant… whether it was Mordenkainen or Melf, they were hunted by the gods because they brought it on themselves.
Figuring this out, Roland felt a little discouraged. The books he had read before recorded that Mordenkainen and Melf fought desperately against the gods, not wanting to be the slaves of the gods.
Now that he thought about it, it was the two of them who forced a war with the gods and left the gods with some post-traumatic stress disorder.
At this point Roland was a little torn inside. He didn’t know if he should laugh at these two for their recklessness or admire them for daring to go to war against the most powerful force in the world!
After a moment’s gloominess, Roland asked, “So that spell I released before can also slay gods?”
“If you double it, yes.” The Life Goddess nodded. “And you’re only a Master now, not even a Legend, and no one dares to doubt your future, so… it’s normal for them to overreact a little, isn’t it?”
The two angels on the side looked at Roland with admiration.
“I was watching the whole time you were experimenting before.” Angel Nia patted her two large round balloons, causing them to ripple. “Although I could fly out of the explosion range the moment it exploded, if I took a hit head-on, I would be a burnt chicken on the spot.”
The archangel next to her, Claudia, smacked Nia’s head. “How can you compare yourself to a chicken.”
“But it’s all pretty much the same if we get roasted.” Nia waved her hand indifferently. “Roland’s one of us anyway, he won’t think we don’t have the dignity of celestials.”
But Claudia looked at Roland with a forced smile. “I have never seen reverence in his eyes, he even looked at the goddess evenly. What is our dignity? Not throwing a god-slaying spell at us on the spot is already showing quite some respect.”
Roland craned his head to look at the archangel. Why did he feel that there was something sinister about what she said!
as SC
Seeing Roland looking at her, Claudia snorted, closing her eyes and turning her head to the side.
This angel truly had a problem with him. Looking at Roland’s puzzled expression, the Life Goddess said, “Don’t blame her, she’s just a little upset.” “Why?”
The Life Goddess said, “Although the four of us bailed you out, the mood of the other gods must also be considered, so I promised them that I would place someone by your side to watch over you and keep you from acting recklessly. If you have any disrespectful thoughts about the gods, she has the duty to tell me.”
Nia waved happily at Roland. “I’ll be following you from now on.”
She smiled very brightly.
Roland, however, was a little upset.
Personally, he had no ill feelings toward Nia and welcomed her as a guest in his home, but if she was there on a mission to spy on him, then of course it would be a turn-off.
As if she could understand what was going through Roland’s mind right now, the Life Goddess stood up and stood in front of Roland. The two of them were only about a meter apart, which was as close as a god and a man could get.
And the Life Goddess didn’t pose as a towering figure, but stood naturally, with no difference in height between the two.
More specifically, Life Goddess seemed to be a centimeter or two taller than Roland’s character in the game.
“Don’t worry, it’s just for show to gag the other gods,” the Life Goddess said with a smile. “I’m sure you won’t be throwing god-slaying spells around.”
Roland shook his head. “I can’t even guarantee that myself.”
“If you really can’t resist throwing them, it’s fine.” The Life Goddess said with a smile, “There are some points in the Astral Plane where many evil gods are gathered. I will give you the spatial coordinates later. You can cause as much destruction as you want at those places. I know with your growth rate, you should be able to release spells on fixed coordinates.”
Hiss!
Roland looked at the Life Goddess in surprise. As expected of a woman who had lived for hundreds of years—even if she was gentle, she still knew how to mess with people
But this was also quite reasonable.
He could now see that the open quarrels and hidden maneuvers in the Astral Plane were not much better than those in the main realm.
