Chapter 530: Chapter 304: Lisa, a princess?_1
As a religion with tens of thousands of years of history, the Church of Light is riddled with internal factions, some of which are at odds with each other.
The term heretic was once specifically used to refer to dissenters within the same religion, and often, heretics are more loathed than heathens.
After the disappearance of the Gods of Light, outsiders perceive the Church of Light to be united and firm in their beliefs, but anyone sensitive within the Church can sense the undercurrents behind the scenes.
Even someone as innocent as Shamara could feel the disappearance of the Gods, wouldn’t others? Among the numerous Saintesses of the Church of Light, why was it only Shamara who stepped forward to make a fuss? Where were the other Saintesses?
After the blockading of Heaven, one Holy Spirit Angel after another was handed over. Without the Holy Spirit, how were the other Saintesses able to summon a Holy Spirit Possession?
Shamara built her own Fallen Angel, but did others build their own as well? If not, then where did these Angels come from?
Anthony has an obtuse Holy Spirit Angel in his hands, and there are also obtuse Angels within the Silver Knights. So, wouldn’t Dyson and Guliani have any as well?
If someone took advantage of their obtuse nature and mass-captured Holy Spirits, could it be achievable?
Anthony split the Church, yet the curia has been nonchalant, unable to provide an appropriate solution, with hardly any condemnation.
All these signs indicate that the seemingly harmonious Church of Light has already split into factions, among which the Fire Stealers, belonging to Dyson, is the most malicious.
When human nature is devoid of divine restraint, inner greed takes the upper hand. The creator of the Fire Stealers is untraceable, probably nine hundred years ago, someone discovered the disappearance of the gods because a new Divine Fire was born.
When a different divine power source hit oneself, even gods would find it troublesome. If it could not be expelled, it would continue to cause damage. When the Divine Fire grew to a sufficient level, it could even incinerate gods.
However, the reality was cruel despite the promising conjecture. There were no more gods in the world.
So, several hundred years since the conception of the God Slayer Fire, there had always been no suitable target until Harvey from the Land of Fallen took a hit.
As an Undead, Harvey couldn’t expel the Divine Fire, but for the Little Ghost who possessed the same origin of divine power, the Divine Fire was a major tonic.
If Dyson knew that his God Slayer Fire was easily expelled by others, who knows what his reaction would be.
Apart from that, he thought the Fire Stealers were hiding deep, but it seems that none of their actions eluded Guliani. Guliani was not only fully aware of their goings-on, he even effortlessly helped him ignite the Divine Fire. Wasn’t this a miracle?
“Why...why are you doing this?” Dyson asked in confusion. Helping him ignite the Divine Fire, what was Guliani’s gain?
“Didn’t I tell you? You can make the trip yourself, but you’re not powerful enough. I’m just helping you gain a bit of power. Now that you have divine power, can you bring me the corpses of those nomads from the abyss?” Guliani asked.
“Really?” Dyson asked hesitantly. “Don’t we need to make some kind of oath or something?”
“No need, no need. You’re a god now. Any pledge you make would be a divine pledge. You can’t just casually make divine pledges. Even if we need to make agreements in the future, that would just be an alliance oath. We’ll all become one of the Gods of Light.” Guliani said.
Could there really be such good things? Dyson said: “Well, I’ll go first. I’ll bring back the corpses of the abyss nomads.”
After he finished speaking, Dyson slowly walked towards the door and made his way out. Throughout the journey, his vigilance was at an all-time high, yet he safely left the curia and teleported back to his territory without any hindrances.
