Chapter 193 - Goddess Fiana's March Against The Trickster Gods!
The believers in the main shrine weren't the 'chosen ones' or any close to the top ones. These have ventured to the black court with the Grooma Kingdom forces and their families! This didn't mean that people around Kyoya were weaker or on the same level as him.
Nonetheless, they were far from having a conversation with their goddess.
When their knees hit the ground, the believers just felt the powerful hot energy sweeping through their bodies which was good on its own. They felt like they got closer to the goddess with this alone and began etching this hotness onto their techniques.
As for Xiaoxiao and the husband, both of them had their own conversation with the goddess. While Xiaoxiao spoke about her progress and 'Eternal Call' technique which was the coolest for her, Kyoya took the job of explaining what happened to Akaro.
"I.. died from the Trickster Gods' powers?"
"Yes… It looked like those gods have done something on the special floor…"
Kyoya was speaking softly while trying to not disturb the goddess! She was currently seeing what Akaro went through with all those unique emotions born within her. The appearance of black castle, the husband's divine energy and those beams going straight at them were vividly seen by the Goddess Fiana.
Of course, it was Akaro's doing as she used her means to pass this knowledge along with the memories and everything she felt back then.
However, just like Kyoya thought, the goddess didn't really bat an eye to those feelings. Those feelings were either new or forgotten, but it couldn't go against the thousands years of her being at the top. It was just a mere precent that couldn't move the goddess at all.
She was looking absentmindedly at Kyoya whose posture was stiff. He wore his respectful clothes and stood in front of her to not expose everything as he was worried about Akaro's consciousness.
What if the goddess could see through that one of her consciousness sealed herself within the mortal? Kyoya did his best to not think about it as well as the goddess naturally spoke with her ethereal voice within him.
His eyes continued to hover on her gorgeous divine body and those flame strands that were flowing down like a lava itself. Due to her emotions and shock, the goddess' red hair began getting a life on its own.
It floated around her face like snakes which was shocking, but still gorgeous and eye catching.
"My child's progress has been satisfying. One of the main techniques that direct disciples use is the Eternal Call."
"Yes, this is great…"
"Your game system has managed to pass her this. I want this relationship to progress and see to what extent your powers can bring out the concepts and techniques out of my belief. This is enough for now."
"Goddess-!"
The whole consciousness of the husband began to shake. He knew that he was being slowly pushed away by the goddess out of this place. His hand went forth to stop it, but the goddess just muttered that one of the techniques from the main shrine has been passed to Xiaoxiao.
And that was enough for the current them.
Nothing more was needed.
Both Eternal Call and this technique was just enough and no guidance was needed as Xiaoxiao's game system was useful on its own.
Though Kyoya could argue a lot in this case, Akaro's presence might've done nothing in the goddess' eyes. It wasn't true at all as Akaro increased Xiaoxiao's familiarity with the flames and belief and even more for both her and the husband.
Her knowledge and casual talks were also helpful and Kyoya just enjoyed her presence that seemed lazy, but proud as the goddess she was. She was the good friend that Kyoya swore to protect and give a good life for, but… Goddess Fiana couldn't accept this.
A mortal, if meant to die, should just die.
She hated the fact that she became something like a shield.
And this hate was redirected towards the trickster gods.
This alone meant that Kyoya couldn't do anything, but leave this place.
As he left, the goddess turned around and her consciousness returned to the body lingering on the divine lands. It was rare, but she opened her eyes then raised that divine beauty enough to charm the whole world pillars' residents.
"Trickster Gods… You have disrespected the rules yet again."
Not only those bastards haven't participated in the talks for the new world pillar system, they just casually chimed in and left a huge inheritance with various divine energies used as bait. Of course, that was the goddess' assumption.
Because Akaro's memories and wishes have told her that the black court and its upside down castle held various divine energies from gods, divine demons and entities that could cause many problems for world pillars.
Those were like the greatest treasure for the believers which would shift the balance within the world pillar.
But all of those were put on the plate by the trickster gods and so it was clear that there was a hidden motive by it. There was a possibility that the whole world pillar might just get killed by this black castle or all believers will simply lose their lives leaving the world pillar one of the weakest ones.
This would hurt the gods who were engaged in this new concept the most!
Of course, the new world pillar system born out of Xaya's rampage was already used in many world pillars, but the first pillar was unique on its own as it had the attention of some gods that had a debate together with the death god himself about this pillar.
They passed more belief and inheritances than usual and even asked others to do so.
Akaro wasn't one of these, but her shrine was doing good in the Grooma Kingdom, the special floor. She knew this, but the reason for her to move was far different.
Once her divine body left her chambers, the whole sky in the Goddess Fiana's divine lands shook. The clouds and sky itself were eternally red here like flames hovering about everyone, but the change began to appear after many years of constant warmth touch!
"War? Is it the war?"
"Goddess Fiana has… mobilized her forces?"
"Against whom? Who could make her act this rashly?"
The ascended races and their leaders born from the belief of their 'origins' spoke to each other while organizing their own people. Naturally, the pleasant red sky began getting deeper in a color, its warmth no longer feeling pleasant, but arousing. It aroused the battle and killing intent of all ascended races whose divine belief was as high as it could get for their goddess!
One also could see the raging clouds shivering way too much.
Those clouds soon shook so much that their deep red forms began to split! Of course, it was just the goddess' doing and what she did yet again shocked her people.
"Goddess Fiana has called some other gods…"
The split clouds turned into regal birds that flapped their wings faster than any other flame techniques! They all headed to the divine lands of other gods that were interested in the world pillar with 'Black Castle and Court'.
She naturally wanted to turn those gods against the trickster gods and even hoped to get the location of other tricksters that she wasn't aware about.
