NOVEL NEXT Chapter 59 Seems Quite Friendly
Before humans and beastmen were born, angels, elves, and demons already existed. Recognizing gods wasn't a strange thing, especially for angels who acted as delegators of the gods.
Like Raphael, a Heavenly Holy Knight...
But, the current "Sun God" was unfamiliar to both Wenresa and the Three Demon Gods. Wenresa was a Divine Half-Elf who hadn't seen much of her own father, let alone Mephisto and the others.
They had always been farming in Hell, though nothing ever grew.
In essence, during the development and expansion of Hell, despite divine will reaching them, the Three Demon Gods indeed hadn't seen much of the gods themselves.
However, Raphael knew.
"The seals on Hell and Heaven... they should have been set by you, right?!"
Raphael looked truly shocked. He couldn't help but start worrying about the situation in Heaven, and mumbled, "So, the calamity sealed in Heaven, could it be... Father God?"
The Father God referred to here was the creator of the angels. While the children might have been created and designed by the gods, angels were created personally by their Father God.
That is, "Ear Hethos".
"No, at least not before I was sealed. I wasn't aware of such things... It seems you know nothing."
The girl goddess spoke, gradually beginning to understand. Looking at the silent Yila, she said, "To be precise, I became the calamity, turned into something like the calamity beneath Hell; I became it and replaced it... Of course, it was forced."
The somewhat helpless girl goddess stamped on the scorched earth of Hell with some lamentation, saying, "When we sealed the calamity, we never thought a god would become a calamity one day... Even if I don't think there is any necessity for me to be sealed."
"But from that moment on, the one everyone sealed was me... Moreover, my ideology was already out of sync with everyone else's."
The girl goddess spoke, no longer intending to continue talking with the kids, she began to walk in a certain direction. In her heart, she marveled... The children had grown incredibly strong. Even mundane humans with no power could still become leaders through sheer determination.
The girl goddess, immediately recognizing Yila as the centerpiece of this group, was astonished by the world's beauty now... and she walked straight towards the dimensional portal. No matter how many years had passed, that spot seemed to remain unchanged.
After all, those portals were the handiwork of the gods.
But, there was no chance everyone would let her pass so easily. After all, the girl goddess was a calamity... Additionally, till this day, everyone still didn't understand the "Sun God's" intentions.
Moreover, the power of the other side seemed unrelated to the Sun God... Who knew if the calamity had completely eroded her?
"..."
Watching the children blocking her path quickly, the girl goddess frowned but didn't get mad. She said casually, "I know, you might have learned something from other gods... but I won't destroy the world."
As she said this, the girl goddess indeed exhibited rationality, different from other calamities that didn't even have a form... This reassured everyone a bit.
"Your powers seem uncommonly strong. Or has this era become filled with such strong beings? Have you considered joining the Empire... Hmm, what is your name? Divine scion?"
The girl goddess extended an invitation, sensing the power of everyone present (except Yila whom she couldn't sense), and asked the strongest among the mundane humans— a Divine Half-Elf.
"Wenresa Iluvita... from the Silver Moon Tree Court."
In response to Wenresa, the girl goddess shrugged off the idea of recruiting her. Then she looked toward the human woman obviously paired with Wenresa, and glanced over Raphael, Mephisto, and Diablo.
These guys already had their own "lords".
"And you? Fire Elemental?"
The girl goddess questioned Ernie, even though Ernie's appearance showed no Fire Elemental traits at all. Yet she easily discerned Ernie's essence. However... unsure how to answer, Ernie looked towards Yila.
From her gaze, the girl goddess had already understood... Ernie completely followed Yila's words.
"Interesting... And you, human? Why have you been so silent since earlier?"
The girl goddess said, scrutinizing Yila. She couldn't sense any Mana wave from him, but she didn't underestimate him either... If the weak were treated respectfully, it meant they had qualities respected by all.
Whether it was personality, talent, will, or wisdom... She saw this clearly.
"..."
Yila opened his mouth but didn't know how to begin the negotiation. But it was comforting that the calamity could speak well... Then he decided to start by introducing himself, "My name is Yila Elkaras... I'm from the Empire."
"..."
Girl goddess: "Eh?"
"..."
Everyone remained silent, but one human woman who completely did not understand, nudged Wenresa Iluvita's waist, whispering, "Why did that goddess say 'eh,' and why isn't anyone talking?"
To the fool in front, Wenresa Iluvita replied at normal volume, "Although you exchanged your name for the Primordial Technique, I am pretty sure that as an Empire citizen, your name contains the 'Ra' character."
Before the fool could ask "Why?" Wenresa explained first, "The god worshiped by the Empire since the divine era is the Sun God 'Ra'. This tradition continues to this day. In other words... it's this very person in front of us."
"Sun God—Ra"
...
"My follower?"
The girl goddess asked with some surprise, looking at Yila with a somewhat lamenting expression and said, "Sorry for suddenly becoming unreachable. That was my divine negligence... During my time being sealed, the Empire must have suffered greatly."
"Perhaps, assaulted by the Beastman country, attacked by the Sea God's nation..."
The girl goddess said sincerely apologizing, but Yila rather bluntly said, "However, worship is just a habit. Although the name contains 'Ra', I don't think many in the Empire still worship you..."
Even Yila himself could only be considered a follower of the Evil God now... her only follower.
"It's okay, once I return to the Empire… I will regain trust and then conquer the world together!"
As the girl goddess said this, she confidently smiled and extended a hand to Yila, seemingly inviting him... and Yila chewed over the word "conquer" in his heart.
Then, after a brief moment of hesitation...
Yila placed his hand on the girl goddess's hand.
