A new emperor? Just like the overlord Garserik who unified the continent more than two thousand years ago┉┉
The angel standing behind the goddess was silent and lost in thought. This continent fell into a state of fragmentation after the collapse of the Perlas Empire more than two thousand years ago. Even after so many years of secondary integration, Although the countries on the continent have escaped from the era of war and ushered in a period of relative peace, overall the continent is still divided due to the confrontation between the Holy See and the Holy Capital, and even if the countries are coordinated by the two major religious organizations Peace was maintained on the surface, but undercurrents were still surging privately.
Just like today's Kalsemmen Empire, a long period of relative peace has given birth to many ambitious characters. There is always no shortage of self-righteous people in this world.
Overlord Garserik established the Perlas Empire. Although the Overlord was bold and blasphemous by relying on the assistance of a powerful being in the past, it must be said that the entire continent entered an era of absolute peace during the Perlas Empire. , all concepts and analyzes were unified by Garseric's iron and blood methods, and disputes gradually decreased under the same beliefs and ideas, especially during the heyday of the Perlas Empire, both economic and military It has reached an unprecedented height, and everyone, including elves, dwarves, orcs and other foreign races, have become proud citizens of the Perlas Empire. Social civilization has been developing at an extremely fast speed, pushing the entire world forward. Even the various technologies that the Perlas Empire once possessed were even more advanced than they are now.
Whether it is an airship or a large teleportation circle, or a variety of magic devices that make life more convenient, even the magic knights privately produced by the Kalsemmen Empire, a large part of these are derived from the original Pearl Excavated from the ruins of the Lars Empire.
When the rebels destroyed the Perlas Empire, they also destroyed countless precious documents and materials. As a result, the eastern part of the continent was reorganized and there were even signs of civilization regression. It was not until the Holy See began to guide order again thousands of years ago. Gradually the progress of civilization was restored.
The foolish balancing policy of the false gods believed in in the Holy City is just a waste of too much time. In fact, time itself has proven that human beings are an excellent race far superior to any other race. Although they are short-lived and weak, they have some disadvantages in many aspects. Deep-rooted evil nature, but human beings' adaptability and learning ability are the most amazing in thousands of years. It can be said that human beings are simply the most satisfactory creation of the Creator.
A unified continent. A unified continent or even a world completely ruled by humans! This is the obsession that the goddess Ishtar desires to achieve most. However, too many differences have caused constant disputes among humans, which has seriously hindered the development of civilization and the progress of the world. Eliminating disputes eliminates those foreign nations that will be eliminated sooner or later, so that Human beings are completely unified under one will to use all the resources of this world for human use. This is the biggest task of the Holy See now.
"My God, your decision is always correct, but compared to a bold blasphemer, there are more and better candidates in this world." The angel who understood the goddess's intention had no difference in supporting an emperor. I just don't agree with some of the choices.
Augusta lacked belief in the goddess rather than understood the ideas in the teachings of the Holy See that promoted the advancement of secular human civilization. Augusta cares more about personal achievements and obsessions. He is even more eager to create a second empire that unified the continent and leave a mark in history. If he is allowed to control too much power and rights, there is no guarantee that he will not become the second empire. Overlord Garserik.
Naturally, what the angel was thinking was also something that the goddess had considered, but Ishtar caressed the water and said softly: "He will not become the second overlord. After all, times have changed. The former White Dragon King Yalin wanted revenge. It’s a desperate move, but now I have enough time to complete his shaping, and as the overlord’s ‘replica’ Augusta also has his own flaws.”
"And my God, what about Pope Julian's baptism of Augusta?"
"We have to put it down for a while, and we still need to solve some minor problems. It is very simple to make Augusta the emperor, but we need to take a long-term approach to avoid direct war with the Holy City. At this stage, we will temporarily help Augusta and the Carlseman Empire. Just expand your influence.”
"In this case, I will convey the oracle to Julian and ask him to meet Augusta to convey the will of our god."
Ishtar said softly: "I will make free arrangements for Augusta. During this period, my lambs can strengthen their beliefs. The filthy things in the abyss are ready to move┉┉"
The angel's eyes sharpened in an instant, and the light wings behind him seemed to become brighter and brighter because of the master's emotions: "My God~ The demon invasion this time is a bit strange, although it happened once between Creses and Kalseman There was a brief conflict, but after all, there was no large-scale war or disaster in the main material plane. It is difficult to understand the intention of actively invading the main material plane when the power of the abyss is still extremely rare. "
"The devil's reason is too chaotic for anyone to understand. Convey my oracle and ask the Holy See to purify all demons who dare to break into the main material plane. If necessary, my envoys can assist the Holy See. Complete this task┉┉”
"As you command! My God!"
At this time, Ishtar's beautiful eyes revealed a strange color: "There is no doubt that demons have powerful power, but existences with this power do not have a rational mind and are completely controlled by their own desires. I’m really curious as to why such a strange creature exists.”
"They are just failures created by the great Creator. My God, there is no need to worry about these filthy creatures."
"A failure?"
Ishtar's beautiful eyes flashed as if she had other thoughts: "But judging from the fluctuations in the abyss this time, the demon that broke into the main material plane and harassed my lambs seems to be an old friend from the past. Killing Another one of the masters, Areguso, should be ┉┉hate!”
Killing Lord Areguso! !
Rather than hating the Lord, the name of killing the Lord made the angel clenched his fists. At this moment, even in the goddess' holy domain, the angel seemed to be at the forefront of the battlefield confronting the Demon Lord. The whole person's aura was like that of a warrior ready to go.
"Okar~ As a 'guardian' angel, are you confident in facing Areguso? The most powerful demon master among the nine masters."
"My God~ has revealed my life, even the lord of killing Areguso will never be able to take a step forward in front of me."
"I believe so~ but you, who are also focused on defense, have no effective means of defeating Areguso. If 'Redemption' has not left, maybe┉┉" the goddess said softly while sighing: "But now if you kill The master has truly entered the main material plane through the intersection, so I have to come to deal with him personally. "
When the goddess said "redemption", the guardian angel Okar looked complicated. There was anger and regret mixed in the fierce momentum: "Redemption, he did not accurately understand my God's grand plan, he was too shallow. Look at the problem superficially.”
Ishtar raised his head and looked at the heavenly sky that was like a flowing aurora, like a beautiful fairyland, and sighed: "It's not that he understood what I meant exactly, but that the 'salvation' was confused, so he agreed with me." The ideal but against the means to achieve the ideal. If you want to achieve your wish without paying any price, you will get nothing. He really should understand this. "
As if he didn't want to talk about this topic, Ishtar fiddled with the water, and the image of the reflection in the water changed again.
This time the reflection seems to be a magician's workshop, and the owner of the workshop is the 17th-level wind spell Leonas, the confidant of Prince Augusta of the Carlseman Empire. At this moment, this young man has The genius mage who had reached the 17th magic level was carefully observing something on the desk with a special lens. When the reflection was zoomed in, he discovered that it was a huge book.
"Could this book be carried by the former Star Child?" Guardian Angel Okar couldn't help but be surprised when he saw the book.
The cover seems to be made of precious fine gold forged into silk threads, and as the mage flips through it, he suddenly discovers that the pages inside actually have the luster of the magic metal Orihacon, which will be used to create magical weapons. Lihacon's magic metal was mixed into a book for recording magic. This extravagant act makes people want to describe the maker as a waste of resources.
Leonas, who was flipping through the magic book, did not realize at the moment that his magic workshop, which was blessed with high-level protective magic circles and anti-detection magic circles, which could be described as perfect defense, was now being exposed without reservation. Under the gaze of a powerful being from the highest sky. Leonas was completely attracted by this book. This book was unearthed from the collapsed residence of the original female mage Tenaya in the valley. From the appearance, Leonas recognized the book at first sight. It's what Tenaya brought with her.
The identity of the half-elf female mage Tenaya has always been a secret. Regardless of how extravagantly this book was produced, Leonas originally hoped to get some information about Tenaya's identity when he opened the book. But I was surprised to find that there was no content recorded in the book at all. To be precise, there are only some irregular straight lines inside, something that Leonas can't understand at all. It is neither words nor codes, and there are no rules at all.
"Why would a half-elf have this book? Shouldn't this book be in ┉┉"
"┉┉ It should be kept in the hands of the White Dragon King Yalin, as a relic of the person I once swore to love."
Ishtar said what Okar had not had time to say: "This book is not something that came to this world with the Star Children. It is just a poor counterfeit, just like that half-elf!" (~^~)
