The half-elf mage Tenaya is lying quietly in the arms of the goddess Ishtar like a sleeping baby. Of course, her soul is in a translucent state┉┉
Whether it is a human or an elf, even a powerful dragon, after death, the soul will be summoned by the sea of souls and return to it. If you want to maintain the soul state in the main material plane, you need extremely strong obsession or some death aura. In a very dense area, this process can be slowed down, but whether it is the weakest ghost or the powerful lich at the top pyramid of undead creatures, the soul that has lost its body as time goes by cannot stop the call from the sea of souls.
However, under the influence of divine power, Tenaya's soul was trapped in the divine realm.
"A very complete soul with almost no damage at all. Your luck can really be described as a miracle┉┉"
The goddess Ishtar, the only lord of the world who is sung by thousands of people in the eastern part of the continent, is gently caressing the face of the half-elf female mage, and browsing some of her most unknown past memories: "┉ Very It should be said that he is truly a replica of 'her', resolute, brave, and more importantly, tempered by suffering."
Dazzling spiritual light flowed from the goddess's body, and Tenaya's soul, wrapped in divine power, began to undergo a qualitative transformation. Bright silver light began to appear throughout the divine realm, and the divine consciousness of the goddess Ishtar completely entered the special realm. Naya's spiritual world.
The body of the half-elf female mage has completely died under the impact of the power of frost. However, for the goddess Ishtar, reshaping a body for Tenaya out of thin air is a challenge to break through herself, and more importantly, to reshape herself. Even if Tenaya's soul can create a powerful new body, Tenaya's soul is not enough to drive it, just like every lock has a matching key.
If the lock is the body and the key is the soul, and it is the prerogative of the Creator to create life out of thin air and shape the body and the most important soul, then what Ishtar has to do now is to create a brand new one for the key based on its original form. The new body may not be a complete creation out of thin air and is far inferior to the creator of things, but it is also a huge breakthrough for the goddess Ishtar, allowing herself to take a step closer to perfection.
With the infusion of divine power. Tenaya's soul gradually materialized and no longer seemed as ethereal and void as before, as if it would dissipate at any time. Ishtar closed her eyes slightly and concentrated on her own affairs. The divine power was carefully reshaping Tenaya. Every cell in the body.
Gradually, the light in the divine realm gradually dissipated, and the soul of the half-elf in his arms disappeared. Instead, there was an angel floating in front of Ishtar, with two pairs of wings emitting white light. Different from other armored angels, the female angel in front of her was wearing a silver robe inlaid with gems to cover her exquisite body. She has a graceful and holy body, and the hood connected to the robe and the translucent veil cover her face, revealing only a little bit of silver-blue long hair, which is distributed around a large book locked at her waist and on her wrist. The gorgeous dagger with divine power makes the female angel look full of intellectual beauty.
"Hmm~very good!"
The goddess buyer walked in small steps around the female angel in front of her. As if looking at a work of art that makes him very satisfied, he uses his divine power to make small improvements in the details from time to time: "┉You can come in Atinayi, do you have anything to report?"
Just as he finished speaking, the same female angel appeared beside the garden of the divine realm. Five pairs of emerald green wings brought the breath of life, making the entire garden seem to be bathed in the vibrant sunshine: "Goddess Ishtar, go to the mainland. Alkes and others in the west sent back an important message. They met His Excellency the Angel of Redemption, Perenlius, in the west of the continent. "
Ishtar, who was still admiring his own work, couldn't help but stop when he heard Pernleus's name.
"Perenleus is still unwilling to return under your wings┉┉" The voice of the female angel named Atinai was a little hesitant, because Perenleus once said some words that were almost blasphemous. I don't know if I should say it now.
"Is redemption still lingering? Tell me carefully."
Ishtar slowly stroked Tenaya's long silver-blue hair, and the female angel did not hesitate to explain everything in detail, including Pernleus's questioning of the goddess's desire to devour the power of the Star Child. . There was no expression change on Ishtar's beautiful and holy face as he listened to these words, and it seemed that he didn't care at all that these blasphemous words were spoken by his once most beloved Wing.
Ishtar sighed and said calmly: "For so many years, salvation has not found the answer he wanted, and now that the answer has appeared, he dare not touch it... Really! He is still as stubborn and stupid as before, He obviously has a pair of eyes that can see through others, but he can never see through himself. "
"Goddess! I think Peenlius has seen through it, but he doesn't want to admit the fact in his heart┉┉"
"What Pernleius said is indeed true. Although I do not want to devour the Star Child unilaterally but to merge with her. However, although our spiritual powers are completely integrated into one, the Star Child has just Falling from the stars, her small personality and memory merged with me in the spiritual realm, just like a drop of water falling into the ocean. In some ways, the will of the Star Child cannot be preserved as an individual. Come down┉┉Just like Pernleus said, this is equivalent to me killing an innocent soul."
The female angel Atinai was silent for a moment and seemed to be unable to bear it, but finally sighed: "Progress comes from sacrifice. At least goddess, you are working hard to put the world on the right track."
Ishtar looked at the aurora in the sky of God's Realm in silence, and finally sighed: "Every time I see Perenlius, I seem to see my former self. I used to be whimsical and thought that I could surrender without paying the price. The world has become a better place. There is no more killing between races, no more fraud by merchants, and there is no pain. Just like a delusional person, I once simply thought that as long as the unstable factors were eliminated, all mortals would follow me. If I operate with my will, then this world will definitely become the perfect world in my mind┉┉”
"But thousands of years have allowed me to see clearly the nature of this world and also my nature as a 'god'. Gods are not omnipotent, although they have the power to command the world and force the whole world to operate according to my will. , but what should I do if 'I' myself become corrupted?"
"The gods can command mortals, so who can command the gods? I have been thinking about this question, and the more I think about it, the more worried I am that I have crossed the boundary called desire. I can never guarantee that my eyes will never It’s muddy, and I can’t always guarantee that my decision is absolutely from my original intention. I’m not perfect yet, so I need to improve!”
This is the goddess Ishtar! Different from the so-called false gods and evil gods in the world who claim that they are absolutely correct and powerful, the goddess is always pursuing progress and always self-examining her own shortcomings. She can be said to be a god or a god. He is said to be a reformer who longs for the world to move forward.
For thousands of years, Atinai has been very clear about the essence of the goddess she believes in, and it is precisely because of this essence that attracts her. Presumably Perenlius was also attracted by this essence of the goddess, and gave her the greatest wish in her heart. Entrusted to the goddess, I am willing to wield the sword in my hand for her, and I am willing to dedicate my life to her at any time.
"For your wish, Goddess Ishtar, I will always follow in your footsteps."
"Thank you ~ Atinayi, sometimes I prefer to talk to you as a woman compared to 'guarding' and 'judgment'."
At this moment, Ishtar does not have the majesty of a god, and is just like a girl next door who is cared for and understood by others with a sweet smile.
"Redemption is still unclear, let him continue his journey. If he is unwilling to watch the process, then when the result comes, he will definitely understand and choose to return under my wings."
"I understand, Goddess Ishtar!"
Atinai nodded, but then glanced meaningfully at the angelic Tenaya: "About Augusta, the prince of the Carlseman Empire, as an arrogant blasphemer, we will not pursue his evil deeds. This is the greatest mercy bestowed by the goddess. Is it necessary for the goddess to come in person?"
"This is my choice, just like the choice made by the White Dragon King."
"Then you can at least send other angels to supervise Augusta. Why did you, Goddess Ishtar, spend a lot of your divine power on the filthy things made by a half-elf┉┉dragon┉┉"
Ishtar smiled faintly and waved her hand to signal Atinai to shut up: "It's not filthy. Although those dragons are a little arrogant and try to challenge the Creator, I don't dislike their arrogance. At least they are working hard to pursue progress. It is much better than other giant dragons who are in a comfortable status quo. However, it seems that the greatest creation of the Creator is never a field that we can set foot in. Maybe after merging with the Star Son and completing the sublimation, I can more or less answer it for me. Part of the question.”
"Then the Augusta side can arrange it as planned? Goddess Ishtar."
"certainly."
After the female angel Atinai gradually retreated, Ishtar walked to the angelic Tenaya, and then the goddess stretched out her finger and lightly touched Tenaya's forehead.
The divine power instantly activated Tenaya's frozen soul and merged with her body. Gradually, Tenaya slowly opened her eyes. The half-elf who was always calm and full of wisdom was now like a baby just born into the world. She usually looked confused, but when she noticed the goddess Ishtar in front of her, Tenaya's eyes became bright as if she saw the radiance of hope.
"Welcome to my new wings!"
The goddess said lightly with a smile. (~^~)
