chapter 90
Episode 90-Goddess
It wasn’t so easy to put Uriah into hell.
Since there was still no god who could properly manage death, and humans had not been introduced to the details of the afterlife, even the bottom of hell was not properly formed.
This happened because the god of death did not yet exist. The candidates for the god of death were making numerous legends about death, but a god with the ability to manage the underworld created by Lemfra had not yet appeared. .
‘It’s a problem that time will solve anyway.’
When humans start imagining the bottom of hell in detail, the shape of hell will change so that Uriah can receive the punishment that is right for her situation.
It was necessary for a system that could burn sinners anyway, but it’s a good enough system to be eaten by Uriah and burned with the fire inside.
“I can’t do this!! How dare you put me in a place like this!”
Uriah shouted from hell, but Lempra didn’t pretend to hear.
In order to perfectly control her resistance, she poured her holy power and tied her to the chain she made, so there was no need to worry about her escape.
Even Lemp didn’t know if Uriah would reflect or not.
But if Uriah burns her two billion souls as her Lem Phra promised, her Lem Phra will allow her to see the light of day again.
She may or may not have reflected on it.
It didn’t matter either way.
If she had fully reflected on herself, it would have been a matter of assigning her to the position of a gatekeeper of hell or a god located just below the god of death. Was
“What is the identity of the God of Mana?”
As soon as Uriah’s work was finished, Catria approached Lemfra and asked cautiously.
Come to think of it, the god of mana was a very peculiar god.
He didn’t even have a proper name, and while he was friendly with humans, he grew up quickly under Lemfra’s protection.
“It’s just that the nameless god grew rapidly under my support. The reason why the god of mana was able to set fire in Uriah’s stomach was only possible because he supported my holy power.”
“Does Lemfra want to give humans the power to attack the gods?”
“That’s an interesting story, what’s the basis?”
“From my point of view, the God of Mana is more distant from Lemfra than me and Ifritia’s close aides. However, it was not a god like us who set fire to Uriah’s ship, but Mana, that is to say, a human being. The fact that the god who symbolizes the power to use created the myth of using mana to create fire is all I can think of as wanting to give humans the power to attack the god.”
“Similarly, I wanted to make humans able to use their power against the gods who don’t follow me.”
Katria made an uneasy expression at Lemfra’s smirk.
Mana was not fundamentally a good force.
Right now, only good people who believe in Lemfra are using mana, but as generations pass, those who are not very nice will also use mana.
Then would it be taken for granted that mana can only exert its influence on evil spirits?
Mana is not a good power, it is just a power that humans can use.
In the Lemfra myth, the evil god and other gods grow differently depending on how the fragments of Lemfra grow, and there is no fundamental difference.
If humans can attack evil spirits, don’t you think they can attack other gods as well?
That was what Katria was worried about, and what Lemfra wanted.
Even if humans had the power to attack the gods, they would not wield that power against the gods, and even if they did wield it, the power of the gods would quickly subdue the humans.
‘However, attacking and not working are two different things.’
Other gods can use magic, but no magic works for Lemfra.
That difference will make a difference in class.
In the meantime, Lemp has existed as a creator god, but there is no part that can make a fundamental difference from other gods.
Possessing an overwhelming amount of divine power does not make a difference in godhood.
Isn’t that the case with Uriah right now?
Her What gave her her powerful deity was her fundamental distinction of being able to eat her other gods.
She was able to use that distinction to gain her powerful divine powers, which gave her very powerful powers until her Lem Phra threw her to the bottom of her hell.
Gods with human magic and Lemfra with no magic.
This disparity will grant Lemfra a different meaning of divinity than the simple difference in strength.
“Stop talking about this and didn’t you say that the Dragon Lord did something strange?”
“Yes, it is said that it happened during the battle with Uriah.”
Katria had a lot of things she wanted to say, but the Dragon Lord’s actions were too much to just ignore, so she let out a small sigh and continued her words.
“You said you showed up to humans, right?”
“Yes, it is.”
God does not reveal himself to humans.
At first, it was impossible to show itself to humans simply because it lacked the ability, but as time passed, humans believed that the gods did not reveal themselves on purpose, and if they consumed a lot of divine power, they could reveal themselves directly in front of humans. Circumstance has changed
Of course, there was not a single god who revealed himself to humans.
Because Lemfra has always warned us not to reveal ourselves to humans.
These were thoughts that did not reveal themselves to humans, at least until Lemfra allowed it.
“It’s not revealed just once, it even periodically flies over them.”
Dragons were definitely different from the gods.
In the end, it was clear that he was a being who protected humans, but to humans, God was a humanoid figure similar to himself, and dragons, though very strong, had a different look from humans.
The difference in appearance was so great that unlike the gods, there was a lot of belief that dragons would not be strange if they suddenly appeared one day.
In fact, countless humans believed that dragons lived together in a high mountain called the heart of the dragon.
“Whoa…”
Lemfra let out a sigh while putting on a complicated expression.
The frequent appearance of divine beings was a one-size-fits-all affair.
First of all, the advantages were clear.
Humans can elicit higher levels of loyalty by clearly seeing who they believe in.
And if the need arises, it may intervene in human warfare.
‘But the disadvantages are not light either.’
First of all, the rank goes down.
Lempra created the difference between being a god with the difference between being affected by magic and not being affected by magic.
Whether it exists in the present world or in the divine world creates a kind of divinity.
If the gods they follow exist in a nearby mountain and can appear in front of humans at any time, it will only give them the perception that they are living in the same world after all.
Normally, while living in the divine realm, appearing very rarely, even when appearing in the form of an animal rather than a human form, would obviously be much more helpful in maintaining one’s status.
“Will the dragons attack us?”
“I don’t know.”
If it’s a regular dragon, you can use Lempria and other human heroes to block it.
However, in order to subdue the Dragon Lord, a god of at least the level of Ifritia is needed.
If the Dragon Lord directly attacks the Lempria Empire, they must be prepared to show themselves to some extent.
“But I don’t think it’s likely to come in.”
They gave up their possibilities and chose to live in the same world as humans, but they couldn’t be optimistic that other gods wouldn’t make it the same way.
“First of all, you should be prepared.”
Are you looking for a way to deal with the dragons without showing up in the human world?
Or are you looking for a way to not lower your rank even if you show up in the human world?
In order not to end up in a situation where humans help you like the myth of Olympus, you will have to find a way to maintain that status.
