Chapter 1322  Great Mother's Parting Words

Eren thanked the goddess sincerely.

The goddess chuckled softly, her response laced with amusement. "Hehe, do not underestimate yourself, Eren. Your status as the inheritor of the Elder Ichor bloodline is one thing. Your other traits are equally impressive. Perhaps you have yet to realize it, but the world of Anfang favors you. The Spirit Beast you possess is a testament to that."

Eren's expression turned grave upon hearing the goddess's words. He was acutely aware of the significance that owning a Spirit Beast held. Despite his efforts to conceal Triton from the goddess's scrutiny, it seemed futile as she drew close, carefully observing him.

"Do not fret," the goddess reassured him. "I have no interest in your Spirit Beast, especially in my current state. What I am emphasizing is that you, as an Elder Seed, possess immense potential and have proven your worth through your unwavering determination.

My actions merely involve investing in you. You are not the first Elder Seed I have supported, nor will you be the last. I aim to tip the scales and disrupt the world of gods. I hope you become the catalyst I seek, the one who upsets their equilibrium," she declared, her tone serious despite her crumbling stone vessel.

Once again, Eren found himself taken aback by the Great Mother's revelation. As he observed her, a realization dawned upon him.

'This goddess harbors grand ambitions within the world of gods, And she likely harbors conflict with other gods as well with the way she is actively supporting the Elder Seeds.

Nonetheless, this presents an advantageous opportunity for me. I don't give a damn about the gods' affair but staying connected to her has its perks. I couldn't ask for a better point of contact once I leave the world of Anfang,' Eren silently concluded, tightly grasping the mystic stone she had entrusted to him. Without hesitation, he stored the stone securely within his ID Storage.

With a simple snap of his fingers, a new set of clothes materialized on Eren's body. A cream-colored tunic, complemented by brown pants and shoes adorned with intricate magical inscriptions to enhance his mobility spells, now adorned him.

As Eren completed dressing himself, a tremor shook the surroundings, causing the once majestic stone statue of the Great Mother to crumble into fragments. The vast expanse of her Domain rapidly diminished to a mere 50 meters, overshadowed by the overwhelming influence of Anfang's World Will.

Despite the destruction of her stone vessel, the face of the Great Mother remained intact, emanating a divine aura that testified to her unwavering divinity. Her face retained its timeless beauty and godly presence, while she utilized the remnants of her faith energy to uphold the fading domain. With a commanding voice, she called upon her most loyal followers.

"My children, draw near," the Great Mother's disembodied face beckoned from atop the debris of her shattered statue. The four Matriarchs, Galen, Nina, and Almera, discovered that they could now move freely within her diminished domain and eagerly approached.

Valeria and the others rejoiced upon hearing the goddess's call, their hearts brimming with elation. They feared that they wouldn't be able to converse with the goddess because of feeling the suppression of their senses. So when the suppression was lifted and the goddess talked to them, they were immediately overjoyed.

Unaware of the conversation that had transpired between Eren and the Great Mother, they couldn't help but feel a tinge of jealousy, recognizing that the chance to converse with the deity face-to-face would not present itself again anytime soon.

The Matriarchs and the rest hastened their steps, bowing before the Great Mother's countenance, perched atop the debris. Sensing the urgency of the moment, the goddess swiftly addressed her followers.

"My children, I am delighted that you have brought someone like Eren to me," the Great Mother's ethereal voice resonated solemnly as she glanced once more at Eren. "Eren holds a special place in my heart. Therefore, I implore you to foster a harmonious relationship with him for as long as he remains in the world of Anfang."

The Great Mother's face adorned a mysterious smile as she turned her attention back to her disciples. "I have a premonition that Eren will herald a new era in this world. When that time comes, you must stand by his side."

The four Matriarchs and the others cast diverse expressions upon Eren, their faces a canvas of curiosity, awe, and perplexity upon hearing the Great Mother's resounding praise. They couldn't comprehend how a non-believer from the Land of the Faithless could garner such favor from their revered goddess.

Galen, in particular, felt a pang of envy, acutely aware of Eren's significance in the Great Mother's eyes.

Eren himself was taken aback by the Great Mother's unexpected assistance in fostering close ties with the Amazonians residing in Anfang. He realized that news of his enigmatic audience with the goddess would undoubtedly spread to other settlements, making it easier for him to engage in business when regarded as one favored by their deity.

"Goddess, Great Mother!" Galen interjected all of a sudden, his face contorted with conflicting emotions as he pointed an accusing finger at Eren. "This man," he accused, "utilized necromancy on your sacred ground. Shouldn't he be punished for defiling the sanctity of your divinity?"

Cracks marred the stone-statue-like countenance of the goddess as she gazed solemnly at Galen, her voice adopting a somber tone. "Galen, my child, if you allow jealousy to hinder your path as an Evoker, it will become your greatest obstacle. Learn to let go and accept things as they are. While my purpose for coming here differed, it is undeniable that my intervention saved your life and secured your future. If you truly wish to worship me, you must learn to be in touch with the nature and reality that surrounds you."

The goddess' words struck a chord within Galen and he froze in his position. Galen clenched his fists and decided to follow the goddess' words. After all, his devotion to the goddess was genuine and he couldn't ignore the advice she had directly given him.
