Deities walk on land, not in the astral world … At the beginning of the Fourth Epoch, in the era of the Solomon Empire, there was no distinction between myth and reality. Deities walked on land without needing to descend?
This is similar to the Second Epoch recorded in the City of Silver's books. Places like the Giant King's Court and the real World are only separated by a "door." They can pass through and return as they wish. Humans and gods are everywhere, and it's chaotic and dark … Also, the astral world really corresponds to deities … Upon hearing Viscount Mobet Zoroast's description, Klein instantly made the connection.
He subconsciously swept a glance at Rosell. This was because this giant was very likely someone who had personally experienced a particular part of the Second Epoch's history!
Rosell picked up a cup that was more exaggerated than a wooden bucket and gulped down a mouthful of melted snow.
He laughed out loud and said, "Mobet, isn't this very normal? Why are you so serious? "
"I don't know why I'm being so serious either." Mobet Zoroast revealed a smile bit by bit. "Haha, what is very normal to us might be very terrifying and unbelievable to them. I have to use a suitable expression to narrate it to achieve a satisfactory effect. Do you still remember Frunziar's expression when he first heard our stories? It was as though he wanted to kneel down and repent to the Lord of Storms. "
"…" Klein, Dhaniz, and company were momentarily at a loss as to what expression or words to use in response.
Anderson leaned his body towards German Sparrow and suppressed his voice.
"I feel that he has the talent of a provocateur."
He appeared to be controlling his volume, but his words could be heard by every creature present.
Mobet didn't mind it as he chuckled and continued the topic from before.
"I know all of you don't believe in the matter of deities walking on land. It's very difficult for you to accept it, just like how Edwina was previously. Heh heh, I can give you two examples. The Abyss of Storm in Pasu Island and the Amantha mountain range's Tenebrous Heaven are respectively the divine kingdoms of the Lord of Storms and the Evernight Goddess. The divine kingdoms on land are separated from the real World by an illusory door!"
Pasu Island? Isn't this where the altar of the Church of the Storm is located? Amantha Mountains … Amantha means tranquility in Hermes. Does this refer to the Holy Cathedral, the Church of Serenity? When the gods no longer walk the earth, their kingdoms become the headquarters of their respective churches? Klein instinctively felt that Mobet Zoroast wasn't lying, so he made a judgment based on that.
Dhaniz, on the other hand, was a little confused and fearful. He subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but when he saw the focused captain, the contemplative German Sparrow, and Anderson Hood, whose face was filled with the words "I'm very interested", he could only force himself to hold back and search for a more comfortable sitting position.
At this moment, Elvish Songster Siatas, who was in charge of keeping watch, walked in.
"Don't mention that false god. The power of the storm belongs only to the elven king!"
Her voice was clear and gentle, but her tone was filled with anger and irritation. It was as though she would raise her hands at any moment and shoot Mobet Zoroast with an arrow.
"Alright, I'll address him as a false god." Mobet raised his hand and stroked his sharp and hard black hat.
Siatas retracted her gaze and said to the shallow believer of the Lord of Storms, the former Rouen soldier, Frunziar Edward.
"It's your turn!"
Frunziar raised his head bit by bit, his expression still a little dazed.
He didn't seem to notice the conversation and dispute from before. He pulled out the iron-black sword that was stabbed into the ground beside him and walked towards the cave's entrance.
Klein observed for a moment and took the opportunity to ask Siatas, the elf.
"Do you know Queen of Calamity, Cohinem?"
In fact, he wasn't certain that Cohinem was Elf King Soniathrym's subsidiary god, Queen of Calamity. He was asking in such a manner because he was waiting for Elvish Songster Siatas to give him an answer.
Siatas's gentle and exquisite face immediately revealed a dazed look similar to Frunziar's.
"I haven't heard 'Her' name in a long time. 'She' is the queen of us elves.
"Mobet and Frunziar don't even know of 'Her' existence …
"Where did you encounter 'Her', no, learn of 'Her' situation?"
As she spoke, Siatas's tone turned anxious.
At this time, Dhaniz looked at the German Sparrow in astonishment. He was amazed that this lunatic was so knowledgeable that he could even have a common topic with the elves who seemed to belong to the ancient times.
"I didn't expect you to be a scholar … I couldn't tell, couldn't tell …" Anderson sighed and shook his head.
Vice Admiral Iceberg Edwina similarly cast her gaze at Klein. Her clear blue eyes were filled with a strong thirst for knowledge.
Klein calmly replied, "That's right.
"I entered a ruin that belonged to the Queen of Calamity, Cohinem, and obtained some items."
"Ruins?" Siatas ruminated over the word softly, her tone as though she had lost something unimportant but she couldn't bear to part with it.
"Judging from the situation there, he might not have really died." When Klein saw Siatas's eyes light up, he went straight to the point and asked, "Do you have the Ocean Songster potion formula? What can I give you in exchange? "
He felt that it was best to be frank and direct when dealing with Beyonders of the Storm pathway.
Siatas thought for a moment.
"Let's exchange one of the Queen's items."
"I only obtained a wine cup made of gold. It has already been flattened, and its surface is engraved with complicated patterns and the two words' Calamity, Cohinem 'in Elvish." Klein didn't hide anything.
"I know that cup. It's the Queen's favorite cup," Siatas said, unable to hide her excitement. "Deal!"
"The cup is outside." Klein had no intention of going above the gray fog in front of everyone.
Siatas nodded.
"I understand.
"Once we leave this book, we'll complete the deal."
At this point, she clasped her palms together.
"The storm shall belong to the elves!"
Without waiting for the others to speak, she asked curiously,
"What else did you find there?"
"Some murals depict the battle between the Elf King and the ancient Sun God." Klein glanced at the ascetic, Snowman, who was said to believe in the Lord who created everything, the omnipotent and omniscient God.
The middle-aged man with his back to the fire and his face to the stone wall finally spoke in a hoarse voice.
"No, 'He' isn't just the God of the Sun God.
"'He' is our Lord, the father of all things, the source of greatness.
"'He' isn't fighting the Elf King. 'He' is only taking back the authority that belongs to him."
Just as Snowman said that, Siatas stood up and aimed her arrow at him.
Suddenly, the Elvish Songster's long, raven-black hair that was tied into a ponytail spread out. It went against the laws of nature as it flared upwards and in all directions. The strands of hair were distinct, and there were silver-white bolts of lightning swirling around them, emitting a strange dark blue luster.
Just as Siatas was about to release the bowstring, a gigantic grayish-blue palm suddenly appeared in front of her. It blocked the arrow tip, unafraid of being pierced through.
This was none other than the giant Rosell's palm. One of the traits of this race was that their limbs were exaggerated in proportion, making them look abnormally long. Therefore, all he did was sit and stretch out his arm to stop Siatas.
"Alright, Snowman, cut it out. As you know, Siatas is an elf who likes to use actions instead of words." Rosell first said to the ascetic before turning to look at the Elvish Songster. "Siatas, we are companions. We have experienced many dangers together, and we can leave our backs to each other's companions. You can retort Snowman or even beat him up, but you are not to attempt to harm him."
As expected of the protagonist of a travel book. He's filled with positive energy … However, what's the difference between beating him up and harming him? Klein couldn't help but mutter.
Siatas grunted and sat back down. There was a moment of silence and awkwardness.
The giant Rosell surveyed the area with his vertical eye and chuckled.
"Then, I'll also talk about my past experiences.
"Before entering this book, I lived in the Giant King's Court and was one of the guardians of the Waning Forest. Only our king can enter that place. It's said that 'His' father and mother are buried there. They are also the origins of us giants."
The Giant King's Court is made up of many parts, and the Waning Forest is one of them? It's where the most ancient ancestor of the giants is buried? Klein listened very seriously, wishing to ask more.
To him, this was more valuable than the history of the Fourth Epoch. This was because the City of Silver's hope was likely to lie in the Giant King's Court.
However, before he could say a word, Edwina had already asked,
"Ge Rosell, what was the book like when you received it?"
Ge Rosell raised his hand to rub his cheeks.
"There was nothing in it. It was like a blank book waiting to be filled in."
I previously guessed that Groselle might be a character from a book … Klein deliberated for a few seconds and didn't directly inquire about the details of the Giant King's Court. He turned to look at Mobet Zoroast.
He turned to look at Mobet and said, "Do you know Blasphemer Amon?"
"'Blasphemers' refers to the entire Amon family. They are the mortal enemies of our Zoroast. It's said that they have an extremely powerful and terrifying ancestor. Even Lord Ouroboros and Lord Medici regard 'Him' with great importance and even fear 'Him,' but no one knows' His' exact name," Mobet explained in detail.
Ouroboros? Medici? Hmm, back then, the True Creator and Rose Redemption were supporting the Solomon Empire … Klein's heart stirred as he immediately asked, "What's going on?
"Have you heard of the name Sasrir?"
Mobet was taken aback as he slowly shook his head.
"Never heard of it."
Dark Angel Sasrir's name disappeared after the Cataclysm? Was it buried? From this, Klein confirmed a fact.
At this moment, Snowman, who was facing the stone wall, spoke in a hoarse voice.
"Sasrir is a Dark Angel, the leader of the Kings of Angels. He's the one closest to the Lord."
I'm waiting for your answer … Klein looked at the Ascetic Monk and asked in a low voice,
"Apart from 'Him,' Ouroboros, Medici, and Amon, which other Kings of Angels are there? There's no need to say 'Their' names. "
Klein was afraid of causing an unnecessary reaction, just like the Penitent in Afternoon Town.
Edwina, Anderson, and Dhaniz had been in a daze from the beginning. This was because the content of the conversation between German Sparrow and the few ancient figures was something they had never heard of. They couldn't believe that this crazy adventurer had grasped so many secrets and knowledge!
Snowman fell silent for a few seconds.
"Also, Angel of Imagination, Adam …"
Just as he said this name, the entire cave suddenly shook. The familiar crazy and tyrannical aura rapidly descended!
King of the North Ulyssan had come!
