The war game ended with the victory of [Hestia? The victory of the Clan Tribe].
The fierce battle between the two factions became the topic of discussion in the streets. Even if Yuriko and the others spent a day returning to the city from the ruins of the ancient city, the attention focused on them did not diminish.
The defeated [Apollo? Clan Tribe] was immediately disbanded at the request of Hestia.
As the main god, Apollo was driven out of the city by a person after bidding farewell to the clan tribe and completing the withdrawal ceremony.
The original members who became homeless also made different choices. Some patiently searched for a way out for the future, some accepted the persuasion of other factions and joined them, and there were also some who were unable to recover from the setback.
Among them, there were also people like Yacinthus who were extremely longing for Apollo. They ignored the prohibition of the guild's combat power and were eager to follow the main god for life.
The influence of the war game spread like ripples to all walks of life.
However, the daily life of Yuriko and the others still continued.
○
The Kingdom of Wallachia.
A monarchy located in the western part of the continent with more than 600,000 citizens.
Standing at the top of this country was not the king of the country, but the god of war, Ares.
In the beginning, it was a small clan established by Ares and a few members. After a long time and hard work, they succeeded in establishing a country and gradually developed into the kingdom with a heritage that it was today.
All soldiers and soldiers were granted the "grace of God". They were called combatants, and those who ran the business and governed the country were called non-combatants.
The kings of the past generations, that is, the leaders of the factions, were all excellent rulers who were carefully selected by the unique main god, Ares.
Because of the divine will of the warlike god, the kingdom had launched countless wars since the beginning of the past.
This was a country in the truest sense of the word.

Under the night sky.
In the center of the capital of the Kingdom of Wallachia, the towering palace — or the temple — was brightly lit.
From time to time, there would be fully armed guards patrolling the area in neat rows.
Suddenly, a squad leader who was patrolling the front of the palace, Fretley, noticed that the street in front of the palace was a little different.
For the Lakia Kingdom, although there was no curfew system, the royal road in front of the palace absolutely did not allow ordinary people to casually appear at night.
Therefore, when he saw the figure shrouded in the shadows of the night, Fretley immediately raised the spear in his hand and shouted, "Who is it?!"
His roar alerted the nearby patrolling guards, and everyone became alert.
After instructing the others to be on guard, Fretley led his own team and ran forward. The armor on his body made a clanging sound as he ran.
After surrounding the person whose face could not be seen clearly due to the darkness of the night, Fretley asked again, "Who are you!?"
At this moment, a subordinate ran over with a magic stone lamp in his hand.
After receiving the magic stone lamp, Fretley held the lamp and illuminated the person in front of him.
— — So beautiful!
Fretley, who had not received much higher education, felt as if his heart had been hit by something.
Long black hair, similar to the black robes of the Easternmost Kingdom of the continent.
The person in front of him was like an elf in the night.
After swallowing a breath with difficulty, Fretley suddenly came back to his senses, shook his head fiercely and said, "Who are you? Civilians are not allowed to enter at night! "
Perhaps he himself did not notice that his tone was much calmer than before.

Raising his head, Eight-cloud Ink looked past Fretley and looked at the towering palace in the distance.
From there, he felt the breath of a god.
Fanatical and warlike.
[It seems that this is a god related to war.]
After coming to this world, Eight-cloud Ink determined that Yui and the others were here.
However, when he tried to sense where in this world they were, an accident happened.
In this world, there were a number of gods that surprised Eight-cloud Ink.
The key was that these gods did not stay in the Heavenly Realm or the Divine Realm like other worlds, or in myths.
Almost all of them were in the Lower Realm.
The aura and divinity of each god overlapped with each other, making the entire Lower Realm in a very strange environment.
Especially in a certain place on the continent, the divinity was highly concentrated.
The complex Lower Realm environment seriously hindered Eight-cloud Ink's exploration of Yui's specific location.
So he came here, the closest god to the place where he appeared.
Since it was difficult to find her alone, he would seek help from the local residents of this world.
He glanced at the ordinary guards in front of him, Eight-cloud Ink could perceive the blessings of the god from them.
Shaking his head, he would not gain anything by communicating with these people at the lowest level. Eight-cloud Ink directly disappeared in front of them.
⑧
In the brightly lit hall.
Ares, who had a head of dazzling golden hair like a lion's, was wearing a red armor, and had an exquisite appearance that could even be compared to the "Beauty Goddess". He lowered his head and looked at the map spread out on the table in front of him.
In the center of the map, the three words "Eulalie" were marked.
The entire hall was empty, only Ares's figure under the illumination of the magic stone's light cast a long shadow.
Although it seemed that he was studying the terrain and formulating a strategy, those who were familiar with Ares actually knew that although this god of war was in charge of [War], he was not in charge of [Victory].
Therefore, he was not an excellent commander in this sense.
"Sorry to disturb you in the middle of the night."
A voice that sounded like a clear spring suddenly rang out in the hall.
Ares raised his head abruptly and widened his eyes in shock.
Although there was the restriction of the [Gods' Convention], the gods could no longer use their divine power without the permission of [That One], but as a god, their keen insight was not restricted.
Even the best adventurers could not sneak up to a god without being discovered.
Ares frowned and looked in front of him.
Eight-cloud Ink stood there quietly, with a smile on his face as he calmly analyzed the god of war in front of him.
"… Not a god, a race that I have never seen before, an unknown powerhouse, who are you?"
As a god of war, Ares, who had his own pride, quickly calmed down.
Eight-cloud Ink bowed slightly and then said, "Sorry to disturb you, my name is Eight-cloud Ink. I come from another world, and I hope that you can help me with something."
"Another world?"
Ares's face changed slightly.
The existence of another world was not inconceivable to the gods, but it was the first time that Ares saw someone from another world.
This person from another world in front of him … was very strong.
Ares was sure that even if he could use his divine power, he might not be able to defeat him.
Such a person who had the same strength as the gods, but was not bound by the [Gods' Convention], suddenly came to visit. Ares's eyes flashed, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"What do you need from me, a powerhouse like you?"
"Looking for someone. I have a few close relatives scattered in this world, and I hope that you can help me find them. I can see that as a god, you have a huge influence in this world, and I think it should be easy for you to find a few people. In return, is there anything that I can do for you? Please tell me. "
"That's reasonable." Ares was suddenly interested.
He lowered his head and looked at the name Eulalie on the map.
"I am going to start a war. Due to certain reasons, gods like me cannot use their divine power in this world, so the war can only be decided by the children themselves."
"I was worried that the children of those guys were too strong, but now …"
Ares looked at Eight-cloud Ink.
"… You are not bound by the [Gods' Convention]. If you participate in the war, I will help you find them!"
War, huh …
From Ares's words, Eight-cloud Ink quickly analyzed the situation in front of him.
The gods could not use their divine power, which meant that the gods would not participate in the war.
Those who participated in the war could only be mortals who were favored by the gods.
Judging from the mortals who were blessed by the gods in this place, these people were not very strong.
"Deal."
