Chapter 248 C Between B and D (2)
Shalyh had becoend was absent, and the army that defended the city had departed to support the Cassiubia League’s main base Moreover, much of huone out of the city to make money as the settlement payment date approached Those who haven’t met their quota yet left in a hurry to look for expedition and adventure
The De about the city’s situation fro that their plan was sh it was true that the De out their deeds in secrecy, the holy city showed no signs of retaliation even a few days after they left for Shalyh However, it was understandable since all the attention was on the Cassiubia e
Moreover, hu they would be protected by Shalyh’s Godly territory They probably believed they were perfectly safe inside their holy city, and it was now time to crush their naivety Even if the humans noticed them now, it would be too late As soon as the Godly territory disappeared with the help of the traitor they had planted, a large arreat Demon Empire would appear before the humans And then the demons would mercilessly trample over the barebone, helpless city with all its armor and shi+eld taken off The Demon Empire did not slon; in theirview of the city Their destination was not far off
The total number of Gods secured by humanity was three However, only two Gods have been revealed to the public—Shahnaz and Kabbalah, and even aory on Liber To be more precise, it would have beenLiber’s current climate Gods were an existence that fed on faith People prayed because they wanted to gain protection and blessing; it could be said that Gods were born out of people’s wishes, or in a way, out of necessity
However, what ht have once been a necessity was no radually disappeared with the advent of ence of ballpoint pens and sharpies, the law of supply and demand dictated that once consumer demands disappeared, so would supply Of course, a product’s value ht remain the same with a small number of dedicated consumers, but that wasn’t applicable to Kabbalah She was just one of the otten in the past
When did a person truly die? It hen they were forgotten That was a quote froa and anime[1] In this aspect, Gods were not otten for a God meant extinction, that was, death No God wanted to return to nothingness after being born with the fate of immorality They didn’t want to disappear or ‘die’ Then to prevent that frootten
The sole reason why Kabbalah artificially gave birth to Balal, as her opposite, and becan with an existence frooal in the end In order to pursue an even do went up in smoke due to an unexpected accident As a result, Kabal was forgotten and disappeared, but was later draht Balal to her
Still, being resurrected didn’t ained a perfect forh an experied by human power in the end Immortality and mortals were fundaether with an incomplete existence like Balal; since they were fundamentally different from each other, Kabal became unstable, which was part of Kabal’s current Godly territory That was the gap the De
The temple of Kabbalah was located in the central square of Shalyh Since she was the guardian deity protecting the sacred city, the Cassiubia League ell and above for her te with visitors, it was quite empty today The number of people in Shalyh had decreased a lot, and it was late at night That didn’tthe stairs shrouded in shadows It was hard toby the body shape, it see up all the stairs, he paused and looked back
He looked around the quiet city for athe te and narrow corridor, thein the center of the hall and staring blankly up at the arched ceiling After checking that the girl was not Kabal, but Balal, the ure smiled faintly
“…?” Balal tilted her head and shi+fted her gaze when she heard footsteps She looked at hi why he had visited at such a late hour
He stopped walking, and after politely greeting her, the figure showed his respect by kneeling on one knee “God Kabbalah, your humble servant has come here to pray”
Balal looked back and pointed at the wall at the front of the main hall, where a stone statue was erected It was a statue of the twin Goddesses, and Balal’s index finger pointed at one of the if he had come to see Kabal “No, I have come to see you You do not need to wake God Kabal up” He continued in a low voice, “I’ve received a great offering by chance Please accept it”
Balal’s eyes twinkled at the word ‘offering’ She iot up and walked towards hiht in front of hiirl’s feet Then he bowed deeper than before
Balal’s eyes widened because she could tell it was an extraordinary offering at a glance Rather than a regular flower, it looked like an ornaanislohite It was a special flower ht, but above all, Balal felt an enormous divinity from it—a divinity extremely clean and refined with hardly any i, but she clearly looked i intently at the flower, she bent down and picked it up She held the flower tightly with both hands, looking at it with disbelief Then she sniffed it up close and breathed in its scent A strange thing happened then The glowing flower dissolved into particles and got sucked into Balal’s nose As if intoxicated by the power, Balal closed her eyes and savored the offering
“Do you like it?” he asked with his head deeply bowed
Balal replied with a bright s in which divinity was condensed into a lump; there was no way she wouldn’t like it
“If you are pleased with it, please accept another one” He pulled out another glowing flower and offered it to Balal “I sincerely ask you to not reject htly She quickly picked up the flower and iht was about to enter her nose—
“!” Balal paused and opened her eyes wide At the saht, or ht fluctuated all around her It was flowing out fro a bank
Only then did the figure show his true color “The De their God” While Balal was flustered, he finally stood up and said, “Of course, it was only possible with the Sernitas’ help, and they had to hand over the spoils in return, but they didn’t hand over everything” He continued to speak as he looked at Balal, who gradually exerted a stronger glow and was unable to control the light at all
“The two flowers I gave you are the result of intensely condensing the divinity of Fenrir’s God” Then he raised his hand and chuckled, slightly touching his index finger and thuhtly The connection between the two…”
