As Allen chanted an incantation, a strange magical wave reverberated in the air.
Wisps of mist floated out of Professor Fleevy's soul, causing his newly restored body to distort and deform again. The soul that was slowly being extracted from his body converged into a red soul gem the size of a goose egg. It was similar to when he first came out. Fleevy's face was faintly discernible within the gem from time to time.
Without stopping, Allen directly reached out his hand that was holding the gem. He dug around in the air and reached his hand into a void that appeared out of thin air.
The God of Death frowned as he watched Allen's actions. As a true god, he naturally understood that this boy had directly broken through the restrictions of the plane in the underworld and opened a passage to the mortal world. First, he placed the soul gem that was stabilized by the mixed-blood fairy into it.
After doing all of this, Alan, who noticed the Death God's gaze, squeezed out a smile awkwardly. "Then, Mister Harpo, as a True God, you're so tolerant of a half-mortal like me today … What is your request for your peace proposal?"
"It's very simple. I hope that Mister Harris can also build shrines for me all over the world and promote me so that I can also gain the faith of other believers." The God of Death, Helbo, stared at Allen with his large yellow eyes that were unforgettable. "Of course, I have no objection to Lady Ravenclaw's faith. The faith and customs of my hometown are not monotheistic. This should not be difficult for you because I know from the souls of the centaurs who died in the Hogwarts that you also allow many gods to maintain their faith … Although you have cunningly allowed yourselves to take the lead …"
Allen raised his eyebrows in surprise. It seemed that Helbo did not care about the power of faith as he had said before. He said in surprise, "I thought that you might want to limit the scale of Rona's faith, but I didn't expect that you would want me to build a shrine for you … Mister Helbo, do you know your reputation in the mortal world now? I thought you didn't care about it … I also didn't see you refuting our propaganda in the mortal world … "
"Originally, I thought that I would return to the Netherworld after getting rid of all of you. Mortals have very bad memories. In fact, I don't even need to skip a generation … As long as nothing happens again, they will forget very quickly." Upon hearing Allen's rhetorical question, Death God Helbo's tone was filled with indifference and honesty. "The uniqueness of my priesthood is not as easy for me as it is for Madam Ravenclaw to obtain the faith through deceit when she was a fake god … In the story of the three brothers in your children's book, I'm not a positive character at all … However, after seeing Mr. Harris and Madam Ravenclaw working together as an example, I think you can also use your reputation and status in the mortal world to help me achieve this goal …"
Allen's eyes drooped. He tapped his staff lightly with his index finger, as if he was considering this suggestion.
"I know this is a little difficult, but you should also be responsible for part of this, shouldn't you? After all, it was Mr. Harris and Madam Ravenclaw who spread rumors about me … "When Death God Helbo saw that Allen did not speak for a long time, he leaned his center of gravity even more forward. Both of his hands rested on his snake-shaped staff. His eyes, which had always been full of greed and eagerness that he loved to show when he was alive, were now filled with greed and eagerness." Mr. Harris, I understand that it is not convenient for you to make this decision alone. Perhaps you can discuss it with your goddess lover … Tell her the conditions and requests that I can provide … "
Upon hearing this, Allen raised his head. There was a slight smile on his face. "However, Mr. Helbo, I would like to hear another option. If we don't accept this suggestion … to what extent will you go?"
Death God Helbo's expression softened a little when he saw Allen raise his head. When he heard this, his big yellow eyes stared at Allen without blinking. "So, this is not a question, but your final choice?"
"Although I am not a true god, and I am probably no different from a mortal to you … I'm afraid you don't know that there are no secrets between my goddess lover, but we should try our best to be honest with each other … So, I am still clear about the matters of your gods' beliefs." The corner of Allen's mouth curled up. "You want me to tell all the wizards in the world that this is a misunderstanding? Tell everyone that not only are you not a bad god, you even took the initiative to call everyone to worship you …" There was a hint of mockery in his tone. "Then, before this, all over the world, because of our propaganda, people built temples and believed in Ravenclaw to fight against the Death God and save the world. What does that mean?"
"The world doesn't need you to save it in the first place …" The wrinkles on both sides of the Death God's nose made him appear very stern and unapproachable again.
"My goddess isn't a good god but the part of Helbo in your bones isn't as clean as what you declared before …" Allen twirled the staff in his hand and snorted coldly. "If I really promise you and do as you say, it's still a light punishment for those who you call shallow believers to leave their faith … Those countries that have united now, after the threat of World Destruction and Death is gone, although they won't openly confront each other, they will definitely secretly point their spears at the floating city …" Allen and Death stared at each other. "Then, as the goddess who declared that you, Death, want to destroy the world and fight against the great evil, Goddess Loina Ravenclaw and her elector Allen Harris will be described as liars … There might even be many people who will blame the disaster you caused on us, saying that it was caused by our own selfish desires or misunderstandings … In this way, your suggestion will cause the collapse of Ravenclaw's belief system … By then, our struggle for faith will not truly stop confronting each other …" Allen and Death stared at each other, "Then, as the goddess who declared that you, Death, want to destroy the world and fight against the great evil, Goddess Loina Ravenclaw and her elector Allen Harris will be described as liars … There might even be many people who will blame the disaster you caused on us, saying that it was caused by our own selfish desires or misunderstandings … In this way, your suggestion will cause the collapse of Ravenclaw's belief system … By then, our struggle for faith will not truly stop confronting each other …"
The Death God did not comment. He continued to lean on his staff and said, "But this fight can be said to be within an acceptable range. It won't be as intense as what is going to happen next …"
"I think that Mister Harpo should be more honest with me... The reason why you are willing to make this choice is because... I must admit that she is still slightly inferior to you. However, both of you possess great Divine Power. That is the reason why you would have some misgivings." Allen said in a harsh tone. "But if her Divine Power decreases because of this, but your strength increases because of your faith … I think I'm afraid that Mr. Helbo will choose to start a war again after removing your scruples … And this time, the rest of the world … Not to mention those wizards who have started to believe in the Death God, even those who have returned to being non-believers, it will be difficult for us to make them believe in our words again … In the end, you will be able to solve the problem effortlessly."
"Very smart. This is a safer way for me, isn't it?" The Death God used his staff as a walking stick and got himself up from the chair.
"I'm just a little curious. You think that Loina won't let me understand the source of her power, so you look down on me and think that I can't figure it out. But what makes you think that Loina also can't figure it out …" Allen also began to let himself lean on his staff and get up. Then he suddenly stopped and said with a sudden realization, "Oh, I understand now … I just thought that you were wrong to think that Loina won't let me understand her … You are even more aware of how important we are to each other than I originally thought … But it seems that you still think of her as a plane too emotionally …"
