Chapter 149: 148 “Did I Eat Your Rice?” (Please subscribe! Please vote for the monthly ticket!)

Unbeknownst to them, silence once again enveloped Luoqi’s room.

Luoqi and Vivian had stopped speaking and simply gazed at Shane, their thoughts unknown.

Within Shane’s heart, myriad complex emotions rose, creating a whirlpool of sentiment.

Although there was much he didn’t understand, one thing might be becoming clear.

That was, Nien was not Supreme God Ominis.

If Shane were to go by what Luoqi and Vivian had said, as the almighty God of the world, Ominis herself was only fixated on Demon King Cladis; everything else was seen as equally unimportant, incapable of garnering her attention. In that respect, Nien clearly differed from this image.

After all, Nien was a pure-hearted goddess who blushed at the vision of a galloping horse within Shane’s heart.

With this interpretation, the only remaining possibility for Shane’s summoning was the third scenario previously mentioned.

But that raised yet another question.

“What’s this about defeating the Demon King?”

Nien had summoned Shane with the professed purpose of defeating the Demon King.

If this were true, could it suggest that the so-called crisis was inseparable from the Demon King?

“Is it possible that the Demon King has already resurrected?”

Shane proposed this possibility to the two girls present.

Regrettably, this possibility was also denied.

“The Demon King, once defeated by the Hero, would find it very difficult to resurrect.” Luoqi glanced at the Holy Sword in Shane’s hands and said, “As a Hero who also possesses the Holy Sword, you should know it has a strong restraining effect against the Demon Clan, right?”

This was indisputable.

It dealt additional damage to beings of Evil Nature.

And it had the power to expel and even purify Evil Nature Power.

These two effects indeed existed within the Holy Sword, not just in Shane’s but also in Luoqi’s.

It could be said that the Holy Swords of all Heroes had possessed this power.

Despite the varying levels of damage inflicted, depending on the strength of the Holy Sword, its restraining effect on the Demon Clan was certain.

And Luoqi went on to say,

“No matter the power of the Holy Sword, as long as it truly slays a member of the Demon Clan, none can resurrect.”

This was why the Hero was considered the trump card against the Demon King and the Demon Clan.

“The Demon King can nullify the power of the Goddess, the Hero’s power can harm the Demon King, and the Goddess can summon the Hero; this has always been the established rule.”

“The Hero, Goddess, and Demon King—these three entities form a cyclical relationship.”

“In view of this, the Goddess is seen as the symbol of omnipotence, the Demon King as the embodiment of power, and the Hero as the heaven-sent hope; each represents the pinnacle of the Divine Race, Demon Clan, and Human Race, respectively.”

Luoqi expounded thus.

“A thousand years ago, the Demon King was indeed defeated by our ancestors with the Holy Sword, and additionally, Supreme God Ominis did not wish to see Demon King Cladis resurrected. She used her own power to completely eliminate the possibility of HIS resurrection; hence the Demon Clan ceased their resistance and turned to coexist with the other two races. This is almost common knowledge.”

The history of a thousand years ago was extremely important to this world; even if they could not recreate every detail, the broader picture was still recorded.

The transcendence of Supreme God Ominis and the fact of the Demon King’s death were widely disseminated.

These two beings were both the beginning and the end of everything; naturally, the world’s attention focused on them.

One could say that if it weren’t for the Demon King’s death and the Supreme God’s seclusion, whether this world could have developed according to everyone’s hopes into its current state would remain an unknown.

In conclusion, the possibility that the Demon King might resurrect does not exist.

Unless…

“Something has happened to Supreme God Ominis.”

Luoqi’s words made both Shane’s and Vivian’s hearts sink.

Because this possibility could not be denied either.

Luoqi was clearly aware of the difficulties, pondered for a while, and then spoke up.

“Regardless, the Hero Summoning has been restarted, which is a fact. If there really is some terrifying thing we don’t know about that has happened, then we’ll have to think of a way to deal with it.”

What could be done?

“I will go to the Divine World soon to see if I can learn anything from acquaintances of the Divine Race,” Luoqi decided. “Of course, I will also meet with the Goddess of Fate and tentatively discuss with her, to see if we can get any help.”

The Goddess of Fate was one of the Three Great Goddesses who had bestowed her Blessings on Luoqi. If Luoqi went to the Divine World to seek an audience, it wouldn’t be impossible to meet her.

“It would be best if I could visit the deep Holy Sanctuary of the Divine World, at least to confirm the condition of Supreme God Ominis,” Luoqi said with little hope in her tone, “But the Holy Sanctuary is off-limits, and not even the Three Great Goddesses would dare to defy Supreme God Ominis’s wishes and intrude into the Holy Sanctuary, so it’s better not to have too much hope for this.”

Who said that the Divine Race is an extremely hierarchical world?

The word of Supreme God Ominis is absolute law for the goddesses of the Divine Race. Even if a situation arose where the Divine Race was near extinction, I guess, without the permission of Supreme God Ominis, even the goddesses of the Divine Race would not dare to barge into the Holy Sanctuary?

For others, this might seem like an extremely serious situation, but for Supreme God Ominis, it’s not really a big deal at all; she could wave her hand and recreate a world even if it were destroyed. Naturally, she wouldn’t care about “matters of this magnitude,” and the Divine Race wouldn’t dare to bother her with “matters of this magnitude.”

This prompted Shane to say,

“Gods are truly a troublesome existence.”

Upon hearing this, Luoqi and Vivian both broke into a bitter smile.

“Such things are best spoken of here and nowhere else, alright?” Vivian said helplessly, “Regardless, gods are our creators, and we are receiving their Blessings. We must not be disrespectful to the gods.”

However, Shane was unconvinced.

“That’s you, not me, a person from another world.”

Exactly.

As an Otherworldly Person, Shane’s creators were undoubtedly his own parents, which had nothing to do with god at all.

And as for Blessings, they were something that had been imposed on him against his will, weren’t they?

Not to mention, Shane was still only half-aware of the effects of his own Blessings.

So, to ask such a Shane to show reverence to the gods, he probably only had one thing to say.

“Have I eaten your family’s rice?”

The discussion was now concluded.

“Let’s leave it at that for now.”
