Chapter 145: The Power of Glory and the Holy Bone Thief
After the Fantasy Show ended, the two emo people walked out of the exhibition hall.
Beautiful things are just meant to be torn apart for others to see.
To be honest, Chloe doesn't like tragedies.
Although he thought the other person's storytelling was good, he didn't like such an ending.
On the contrary, Fratiss was chattering on:
"It was so interesting!"
"What was interesting about it?"
"Whether it's the Emperor or the Celestial Destiny Mage, they both have their own visions and aspirations to pursue.
Because they came together for their ideals and visions, a relationship was formed, which ultimately ended in separation by death.
It's like when a gun is shown in the opening of the Fantasy Show, it will definitely go off by the end.
It feels like there's a sense of inevitable fate and reincarnation."
Talking about the content of the Fantasy Show, Fratiss became more animated than usual.
Only Chloe was pondering a question.
Baby, have you ever considered that this time Miseria's script is an adaptation of the young and little-known story of the Emperor.
So what role do you and I play in this story?
His scalp was already tingling.
Miseria's Fantasy Show project can't be too big.
So at most, it would unfold in the form of a short play.
Don't let it turn into a romantic comedy style, or he might be ready to run away.
He's here to help, not to liberate his instincts.
Seemingly sensing Chloe's silence, Fratiss said apologetically:
"Ah, sorry, I got too excited and accidentally said too much,"
Chloe glanced at the glutton.
Usually, the glutton is the type of person who is quite silent, sometimes appearing quite stuffy.
Just didn't expect that she would be like this when talking about an exciting topic.
Seeing her embarrassed expression now, it seems this isn't the first time something like this has happened.
He chuckled and shared his concerns with Fratiss.
After listening, Fratiss finally realized and burst out laughing:
"Senior, how could you think Miseria would do such a rude thing?"
"Hmm?"
"Senior, have you ever thought about this: Miseria might not be good at handling scripts related to romance?"
Chloe paused for a moment, then laughed heartily and said:
"Hahaha, what you said makes a lot of sense."
Can't imagine her creating a romance plot out of thin air like a novel author, right?
But the next second, he added:
"Aren't you afraid I'll tell Miseria what you just said?"
"What?"
Fratiss was a bit panicked.
She initially wanted to say that Miseria would never touch these kinds of subjects.
How did just a few words turn into her being coerced by her senior?
"Senior, please don't do that, Miseria will cry."
Fratiss didn't really mind if Miseria found out about this.
After all, with no experience herself, Miseria, even if she could write a decent script, wouldn't want to act in it.
So it's most certainly based on the story between the Emperor and the Storm Hero.
Romance?
It's not impossible, but choosing such a script, finding suitable actors is already tough.
Especially in a university setting.
But mention romance, Miseria would definitely cry.
"Don't worry, I won't tell Miseria."
It was rare for Chloe to see Fratiss looking so flustered, and he found it quite novel.
Fratiss, seemingly worried he'd actually do it, offered to buy him a meal.
This surprised Chloe:
"Fratiss, aren't you afraid I'll eat all your food this time?"
"I-I-I-I don't always guard my food!"
"Alright, it's a rare chance to get a free meal from you, I won't mind."
...Dining...
Through the chat during the meal, Chloe discovered that Fratiss was much more interested in the Fantasy Show than he thought.
But there are few people chosen to be actors for the Fantasy Show.
Sometimes when it involved professional issues of the "actor," others felt as if they were listening to gibberish.
On this topic, Fratiss was a bit embarrassed:
"Actually, when talking with others about this, I always end up chattering on excitedly.
But friends who haven't been in this industry often show a bewildered expression because they don't understand.
The atmosphere becomes awkward, and I really hate that vibe.
Of course, if it were you, Senior, you could probably make the inherently dull stuff sound lively."
Chloe shook his head and said:
"Don't overthink it. When talking about professional topics, if you can have a conversation, it's often the result of one side accommodating the other.
They don't really understand, but they keep the conversation going.
Usually, this only happens with friends who have a good relationship with you and are willing to listen, or people who have ulterior motives."
"Really? Is that so?" Fratiss thought for a moment and said, "It does seem like apart from my parents and very close friends, few people want to chat with me like this, unless..."
"Unless they're coveting your good looks," Chloe said casually.
"I think I look quite ordinary," Fratiss muttered defensively.
"It's normal. I think I'm pretty plain too, but every time I say that, Daniel thinks I've gone crazy."
"Pfft, is Daniel so funny?"
Yes.
That's the reality.
Many people endure listening to these tedious topics simply because the person speaking is attractive.
Amed student telling you interesting little stories from the hospital and teaching you pharmacology are two different concepts.
The former at least offers some entertainment.
The latter, once it gets deep, is barely different from incarceration.
It's just.
Chloe was still contemplating something.
What exactly was going on with the Storm Hero Max in that script.
On the Stars Continent, "Hero" is a specific title.
Before the Age of the Seven Heroes, the Chosen Hero did not exist.
In other words, a Chosen Hero emerges on the Stars Continent every so often, a phenomenon that was born after their legends faded.
According to historical records, the only Deity directly associated with heroes in the early years was the God of Glory and Justice. Even before the Dawn Era, the weapons of heroes were divine artifacts of the God of Glory and Justice—
The Heroic Greatsword.
But in the era of Rephya from "Simulated Hero," the Heroic Greatsword became the Chosen Sword.
This is very strange.
After parting with Fratiss.
Chloe went to the Church of Glory and Justice.
There, he met Cardinal Fiss.
Upon bringing up this matter, Cardinal Fiss said with a smile:
"Actually, there's nothing much to hide about this. The source of the Lord of Glory's power comes from many years ago, when seven unnamed heroes were said to have saved the entire world. However, the myths and legends about them are difficult to verify.
But traces of their power are scattered across this continent.
There's even a rumor that the King of Redemption, who established the Dawn Era, was one of those unnamed heroes.
The faiths scattered around the world merged and converged, ultimately flowing towards my Deity. This is the origin of Glory."
Chloe suddenly understood.
The Path to Divinity is not easy.
But since the internal view within the Church of Glory acknowledges this, it indicates that the Lord of Glory indeed has a direct connection with the Seven Heroes.
Perhaps the birth of the Lord of Glory was likely the doing of Kai and Stuart.
In the mythologies of the Stars Continent, the Lord of Glory was once the Deity that wielded the most divine artifacts.
Moreover, the descriptions of those artifacts are very interesting.
The Heroic Greatsword.
The Chosen Sword.
The Tribulation Halberd.
The Sun Chasing Holy Scripture.
The Fearless Iron Armor.
The Immortal Divine Shield.
The Dawn Divine Bow.
The Dawn Divine Arrow.
The All-Powerful Scripture.
The World Magic Staff.
Each divine artifact possesses earth-shattering power.
However, coincidentally, the Hero's Sword was eventually taken by the King of Redemption.
The Dawn Divine Bow and Dawn Divine Arrow, according to unofficial records, were also taken by Patrol Hunting.
The remains of the Tribulation Halberd are in Chloe's possession.
As for the Chosen Sword, it will later fall into Rephya's hands.
Good grief.
Before the Dawn Era, the Lord of Glory, who possessed the most divine artifacts, now finds half of them in others' hands.
Seeing this, he roughly understands the position of the Lord of Glory.
The relationship between Glory, Kai, and Stuart is certainly fictitious.
It's likely that part of Glory's power system originates from those seven.
So... the Storm Hero with Future Vision.
Cang, why did you die once more during the Imperial Era?
You can't carry it through.
Seeming to sense Chloe's helplessness, the Dawn Divine Bow in the Space Backpack emitted a mournful cry.
As if saying:
[As a divine artifact of the Bow Hero, I deeply regret]
Given the circumstances.
At least he can be sure now that Glory won't be his enemy.
"I've heard the news from the Patrol Hunting Church."
Cardinal Fiss looked at Chloe with a somewhat profound expression.
Chloe coughed and replied:
"I haven't entirely agreed yet."
Cardinal Fiss's expression was a bit complex.
What is this?
Just a tease with no further action?
However, Chloe's main purpose in coming today was for another matter:
"Actually, Your Excellency Fiss, there's no need to covet me so much. Soon, someone more suitable for this position will appear."
Cardinal Fiss frowned, casting a glance at Chloe:
"Like who?"
"A new hero is about to emerge."
Snap.
The Staff Iron Ring that Fiss was holding in his hand inadvertently shattered as he looked solemnly at Chloe, asking:
"Future Vision?"
"Consider it so."
Calculating the time, Rephya's first awakening should be near.
Also...
That guy probably has signs of making a move, right?
Chloe's gaze turned a few degrees colder.
That "Thief" who, through the Crimson Church, stole Rephya's Holy Bone, causing irreversible damage to Fufu in the simulation.
He's got to settle the accounts too.
It's just that Rephya will have to endure some distress for a while.
Speaking of which, she's probably still mad at him now.
Indeed.
Chloe had deliberately angered Rephya earlier.
The awakening of Rephya's hero power had reached a critical juncture.
Recently, Xiaolu had become too reliant on him, and Chloe didn't want her to miss a pivotal opportunity because of his influence.
