Chapter 916 The Gods Are... (2/2)

"P-Please forgive randfather to the invaders I saw theer than our Sovereigns I was just afraid that they can do sons couldn't"

The Matriarch waved her hand and the maid shut her mouth Her stiff body, however, loosened

Even though the Matriarch could be ruthless, she wasn't unreasonable To the people who didn't go against her, she was even quite tolerant and willing to listen

If this same scenario occurred with any previous ruler, they'd have punished the maid severely

Perhaps this tolerance to the common people and subordinates was one of the unspoken reasons for Matriarch's popularity

"It's not a question of strong or weak Sovereign," the Matriarch stretched her body and looked at the northwest as if she could see the Twilight Zone lurking there "Twilight Zone, Infinity Zone, and Deviant Zone, they aren't things that any …" The Maid repeated in a daze

The Matriarch s ful expression, she mused "Why do you think our scriptures called these zones divine? Or they praised the?"

"No way…" The Maid felt her worldview collapse "M-Matriarch, I-isn't that just so? How can it be created by Gods?"

"Then you tell me" The Matriarch smirked "Who in this world can make a place to resurrect a dead person and make a dead an Undead? And to make a place that would last for tens, no, hundreds of thousands of years without any intervention?"

"…Are there really Gods in the world out there? Did the Gods co up "T-Then why did they abandon us? Why did they lock us up in this world? Why? What sin did we commit? What sin did I commit?"

The Matriarch's ss of the balcony and looked at the sky "The Gods walked in this land in the distant past They are the creators of this world They are our creators too

And no, they didn't abandon us They selected us We are the inhabitants of the greatest world created by the Gods Only a person of great destiny can clear the trials of this place and become the lord of this world

Alas, the Gods set the bar too high Even after hundreds of millions of years, no one passed the trial No one orthy enough

So, little one, we aren't cursed We didn't sin We are blessed It's just, our blessings are too much that we suffer"

The depth of the Matriarch's words and their i maid or the maids with her

But they were curious about the Gods

"T-Then, M-Matriarch, will the Gods return one day and set us free?"

"Hahahaha!" The Matriarch burst out laughing as if she heard the funniest thing in the world

Thethey pissed her off

But after a few hter, the Matriarch looked at the young maid and said in the softest voice she could muster

"The Gods are dead"
