Gloria returned to the city of Modor the next day.
She brought back a lot of alchemy devices and went into crazy research as soon as she came back.
Søren didn't tell her about Cyric. As a mortal, she couldn't help much now. Telling her would make Gloria worry more.
Vivian woke up in the form of a demigod.
At present, the only thing the little girl lacked was a clergy. As long as she had a clergy, she could be promoted to [Minor Divine Power].
A lot of things happened during this time.
First of all, the Goddess of Fortune appeared in the City of Wealth. The reason seemed to be related to the legendary lucky coin. Søren didn't know if he should get close to the goddess because he had the blessing of the Goddess of Misfortune. Then, the Elves and the Orcs broke out again. This time, the scale was much smaller. It seemed that the two divine systems had restrained a lot. The internal strife of the Drows had stopped. The Queen of Spiders should have regained control of everything. There were gradually signs of unification inside the Underdark.
The Principality of Rossard was more serious.
As Søren guessed, the Duke Of Red Dragon's wife was backed by a Demon Duke.
And it was the legendary Queen Of Yumo.
[Lord of Hell], the daughter of Asmodeus!
This was like poking a hornet's nest. Even the Church of the God of Light was now having a headache. It was not difficult to deal with the Queen Of Yumo, but if Asmodeus was drawn out, then only the God of Light himself could deal with him.
Right!
There was another standard of great divinity. In addition to Death, the other was the Lord of Hell, Asmodeus.
He had experienced the ancient war and killed many ancient demons.
The Queen Of Yumo should be the first Demon Duke to appear in the eyes of the world. As the daughter of Asmodeus, she had always tried to prove her ability. She didn't rely on her father's power, but relied on her own strength to achieve the status of Demon Duke. So this time, the trouble caused by the Church of Light would not be so easy to solve. At least the confrontation between the demons and the church would last for a while.
Søren had been paying attention to the outside world.
However, because he knew about Cyric, he didn't want to intervene in many things.
The latest news was related to the Halflings. As a race with a small population, the Halflings also had their own Gods.
This time, the Halfling's Guardian Goddess, Yoda, seemed to have appeared.
The goddess who had created the halfling race had appeared in the Shire region and had fought with a god.
As for who it was, it was still uncertain.
In addition!
One thing that had happened in the beginning had been made clear.
It was the Death Valley mentioned earlier, where a strong aura of life suddenly appeared. This was obviously a miracle created when a god who was in charge of [Life] fell to the mortal world.
This goddess was Angris!
The Elven Goddess of Life! She was also the current wife of the Elven God System's Chief God, Corelon Larrisin! The person who replaced the Queen of Spiders, Lolth, as the matriarch of the Elven Pantheon!
She was in charge of Spring, Birth, Fertility, and Planting, an extension of the Life Priesthood.
It was because she fell to the mortal world that there were strong signs of life in the Death Valley. At present, she had returned to the Elven God System.
As for why she didn't see her husband until now, the outside world didn't know the reason at all.
A few days passed in the blink of an eye.
The third wave of the Avatar Crisis was still brewing, and the figures of the demons began to appear frequently. It seemed that in the first few waves, they had become more active than the demons.
In the eyes of the demons, the material plane was a rich treasure!
A large number of high-quality souls were waiting for them to harvest, which could greatly improve their power and status.
Recently.
Some special people began to appear in Modor City.
Most of these people were women, and they were all young and beautiful women who could sing and dance. Most of these beautiful women were bards, dancers, performers, and so on. They had a special emblem on their chests, which was a triangle formed by three different colors (yellow, orange, red) of hexagons.
This was the emblem of the Goddess of Joy!
No one knew when it started, but the believers of the Goddess of Joy came uninvited.
Now, many performers serving the Goddess of Joy could be seen in Port Modor. They either sang and danced in the taverns or performed directly on the streets. From time to time, passers-by couldn't help but stop and watch. Occasionally, there would be a burst of cheers. These beautiful women all had good skills, and their beautiful dance made Port Mordor happy.
Søren had been secretly paying attention to these things, but he had no intention of directly interfering.
The Goddess of Joy had her own mission.
At present, because of the Avatar Crisis, there was no joy in many places.
When war came, gods like the Goddess of Joy would become very awkward, which was why her followers came to the city of Mordor. At present, in the material plane, only a few places, such as Modor City, Arendelle, and the Northern Council, could still make them happy. As for other places, those who were still hungry had no energy to watch their dances and songs.
The Goddess of Joy – Li 'er.
She was the goddess of joy, happiness, dance, festivals, and freedom. Her domains included chaos, charm, family, kindness, and so on.
She was a kind goddess who liked to do whatever she wanted.
She was also one of the goddesses who was inclined to hedonism. She basically did not have much ambition. Many of her believers were extremely devout, and she was popular all over the world. She was regarded as the propagator of joy. Her temple often raised donations by holding grand celebrations, and then put the money raised into various seemingly unplanned uses, such as concentrating on beautifying a public area, or spending a lot of money to hold a feast for a serious local lord.
A feast.
In short, this goddess and her believers were a little funny.
The Goddess of Wealth and the Goddess of Joy used to be very close allies, but after the previous Goddess of Wealth's accident in the Time of Troubles, some of her believers began to turn to the Goddess of Joy, so the relationship between the two goddesses later became much colder.
The enemy of the Goddess of Joy was the Goddess of Pain and Torture – Lauvita.
The Goddess of Pain, Injury, Agony, Torment, Suffering, and Torture, the aforementioned Maiden of Pain.
The hatred between the two goddesses had been long-standing.
As early as the last Time of Troubles, the High Priestess of the Goddess of Joy, Clanna-Angelos, who was once the lover of the Goddess of Joy, was murdered by the forces of the local Lauvita sect. Under the instructions of the Goddess of Joy, her believers formed an assassination cult called the [Scarlet Dancers] and began to tour the world. At the same time, under the cover of delicate and deadly dances, they used dancing shoes with hidden blades to take the lives of the Maiden of Pain's believers.
From then on, the battle between the two churches never stopped.
…
The sea could accommodate all rivers.
Søren was tolerant enough of the arrival of the believers of the Goddess of Joy. He sent people to give these performers a piece of land and let them build a small temple to worship the Goddess of Joy.
Of course.
This was not without a price. Søren was having a headache over Vivian's priesthood, so he was very interested in the position of the Maiden of Pain – Lauvita.
Originally, he wanted to let the High Priestess contact them.
But considering that the Goddess of Joy was a famous lesbian goddess, he thought that he should have the opportunity to contact her again.
