Chapter 767: Diplomatic Work
Luminus, who entered our barbecue party uninvited, said that an army came after me, that sounds more than dangerous.
"After the attack on the Church of Light's main Temple, they were very angry with you." (Luminus)
"Wait! What attack!? I didn't attack anyone and I don't even know which Temple this is." (I)
"No need to explain anything to me, any idiot could see it was a punishment from the Church of Death, you would just alleviate the humiliation they felt." (Luminus)
"..." (I)
"You speak of armies, but I've never seen one since I left the Morror Continent." (I)
"I was following the army, but I wasn't going to interfere, I just wanted to get a better sense of the situation." (Luminus)
"But to my surprise, an Elf Queen appeared on that continent and drove the army away." (Luminus)
"I knew she was strong, but how strong was that army?" (I)
"She could be strong, but not strong enough, the real problem was the ability of Elf Queens and Kings to make contracts rom Spirit Kings or Fairy Kings, the ability to open gates to their worlds and ask for help." (Luminus)
"The army left knowing it wouldn't be the easy fight they imagined, but they're still looking for you." (Luminus)
It seems that I escaped from that Continent at a good time, but I am worried about what might happen in the next Continent, as far as I know, there the energy density is not as weak as I am used to, and I will be in real danger.
"Master, this is not the time to fall into your own thoughts." (Nix)
"Yes, I'm sorry." (I)
"I have a purpose for you." (Luminus)
"I have an item with me that can hide you from tracking by anyone other than your Familiars, if you would agree to be a mediator for us I would give this item to you." (Luminus)
"Alright, I accept." (I)
"..." (Luminus)
"Master, I think you should talk a little more with the others before making this decision." (Nix)
Pov Loki (Evil God of Fun):
"You know you can't beat me." (I)
"That's because you're stealing." (Shako)
"That would also be part of the game if I was stealing, after all, if I get caught I lose." (I)
I'm sitting at a gaming table the size of a large Kingdom, the landscape is full of games or cards floating everywhere, plus there's a square sun in the sky in the shape of a dice with three black dots on it.
"I missed you, the other Gods think gambling is a waste of time." (Shako)
"They are fools, they don't understand that what they do is also a game." (I)
"Yes, besides they are all very active in the last few centuries as they make their moves hidden from others." (Shako)
"You too, I doubt you'll stay out of the fun." (I)
"You're right, but unlike other Gods, I don't have a Temple or devotees, the simple act of playing any game is a prayer for me, but I don't like to interfere." (Shako)
"Is that why you're keeping me in your God Realm?" (I)
"Do you want me to be your Champion?" (I)
"Yes, we think alike, plus you surrendered your divinity to me." (Shako)
"I did this because I'm tired of sitting around looking at a board all the time, I want to be one of the pieces now, to be at the mercy of luck and choices, an infinite number of choices that lead to a path I can't see. " (I)
"Will be amazing." (I)
"Is that why you're thinking about staying with Selene's son?" (Shako)
"Of course, he has terrible bad luck, besides he is an Incarnation of Chaos, being around him will bring endless fun and the way he thinks is interesting." (I)
"Will you accept my proposal?" (Shako)
"Why not? It can be fun, especially with your unpredictable powers." (I)
