Chapter 200: Would You Believe Me If I Told You I Was a God?

The Witch began to spew garbage out of her mouth for hours on end, making sure to keep her terrifying knife against his neck as she began speaking things he had never heard before.

This village is ancient. At the time, a group of soldiers were ordered by the king to take a hundred boys and girls into the mountains to appease the gods.

Get to the point, she urged, pressing the knife into his throat.

Uh, once they found the god

They were bestowed with ancient knowledge, correct?

Well They found that the god was dying, so

So they got greedy and imprisoned the god. Next.

They used the mountains and rivers to imprison it, but they themselves were imprisoned as the god cursed them.

Already knew this, next.

How do you know so much? The old man was doubtful. You know so much, and yet youre still alive?

If I told you I was a god, would you believe me?

Glancing at the seemingly ordinary girl, if it werent for her knife, he wouldnt have thought twice about her.

Surely, this cannot be a god.

Yibei became impatient. Jumeng had already told her everything she needed to know.

We wont get anywhere with this arrangement. Now, let me ask, and you will answer. How did you become a priest, and what did you do?

Well

There are strict conditions for becoming a priestonly villagers who have had no physical deformities since birth and suffer from no mental problems.

This may seem simple, but this village suffered from curses and vigorous incest, so things like these were considered miracles.

Well, she originally was the bride who was sacrificed to the gods. Our ancestors tried to appease our god and sent him brides for many years. However, those bridges will return as Old Ladies, and they all lived in the ancestral hall.

Well, that seems unfair. Did they even obtain consent from either party?

As she thought of it, the old man continued the story.

The babies who survived will have a lot of knowledge in their minds that a baby should never possessknowledge of mysterious, ancient texts that tell of obscure knowledge no longer existing in the outside world.

Once this comes to their conscious mind, they will begin to have nightmares every night, being thrown into the dark cellar as they crawl deeper and deeper into the darkness.

There were many filthy creatures that could not be seen, crawling endlessly in the dark maze.

Soon, the figures will become clearer, revealing strange faces covered in blasphemous scales and whispers manic enough to drive one crazy.

Whispers? Maybe its god trying to communicate with them. Or talking snakes, like in Harry Potter! Sorry, you probably dont know what Harry Potter is.

After a short silence, Yibei asked, Do you know what the whispers were saying?

N-no. You dont want to hear it. I cant speak it in human language.

Just say it.

Hearing this, the old man stared straight into her body, and he opened his mouth, revealing a mouth full of sharp, yellow teeth and a forked tongue.

The tongue slithered across his mouth, whispering an unknown language from the depths of his throat.

And Yibei miraculously understood everything.

A serpent god from a distant plane is trying to fade away its cursed, immortal soul. Normal humans cannot live a normal life, while the queer ones live a normal life, she whispered.

H-how did you understand that? How is that possible?

I told you. Im a god.
