Chapter 50 My Beautiful, Divine Goddes
While I was bowing Ilelia opened her mouth.
"I swear on my wings that i, Goddes of Ice and Moons, Ilelia, won't harm or seal Kayle Ceurie directly or indirectly unless he commits the most heinous crimes." Ilelia spoke harshly while looking at me with great anger.
Probably she didn't like the fact that she swore on her wings because of a mere mortal.
When Ilelia swore, half of the frozen blood that connect us became pale blue string. The pale blue string represents me and frozen blood represents Ilelia. I kind of understand why frozen blood represents Ilelia but I didn't understand the reason why pale blue string represents me. Though I didn't think too much about it, as it was currently useless.
'Well, I couldn't get her protection but this is okay too. I can just act like a weak mortal while slowly changing her perception of me to gain her natural protection. Seducing her would be hard, as she is more beautiful than me and she has some pride of a divine being, she must see me like a bug or trash. Though for some reason that I don't understand, she doesn't like me and it is pretty weird, as today is the first time we meet each other.'
"My Goddess, can you enlighten me that how did you come to know that I have this knowledge?" I asked with curiosity.
Ilelia looked at me like i was poop on her shoes but she still answered my question.
"Every important knowledge leaves a symbol onto the soul of the carrier of the important knowledge."
"Thank you very much for your great knowledge, my goddess. Can I dare to ask you to tell me how many symbols are on my soul?" I asked this because even I didn't know the number of important knowledge I have. As I forgot many things that are in the novel.
"I am not a master of souls, so I can't calculate the full number of symbols on your soul, as they aren't like you mortal's simple symbols. But I can tell that you have as many as gods have, except Enos." Ilelia said.
'It is normal, Enos is the god of knowledge after all.'
"Can other divine beings find me like you, my goddess?" I said with a fearful expression. I was just a weak mortal after all.
"Probably not. Divine beings can't interfere with the mortal realm without paying a heavy price, hence they aren't interested in the mortals too much, but they can notice you if you enter their temple or say their name with too much emotion." Ilelia said and looked at me with a questioning look.
I tried to remember that if I entered a temple or spoke a divine being's name.
Well, I remembered that I spoke a divine being's name with complete respect and awe.
But I won't tell this to Ilelia as of right now I don't want her to question me more. Ilelia was already very wary of me and if I say her that I spoke the name of the Devil of Death and Souls with the utmost respect, she won't trust me ever even if I have sworn to not tell a lie to her.
And even though I spoke the name of that devil, he didn't send me any assassin, fallen angel or any message. So it was possible that he didn't notice me. So it was unnecessary to alert the unstable goddess more.
"As you know my beautiful, divine goddess, I am not a servant of any divine being other than you." I said with respect.
I was buttering her to warm up to me subconsciously.
Even though Ilelia acts like a mighty God, she was a mortal too for a long time ago and every mortal likes praises and protective behaviours. That is why I was saying 'my goddess', as this will awaken a strange emotional reaction in her and if I suddenly stop saying 'my goddess', she will feel sad subconsciously.
"Don't talk unnecessarily, speak only the answers." Ilelia said harshly but I could tell that the harshness in her voice little bit reduced.
'Well, it seems I can gain her trust more easily than I thought.'
"Do you know the future?" Ilelia said with a sharp gaze. She was inspecting my every move for some reason known to only her.
"I am not completely sure, my goddess. I know what will happen in the future but everything that I know can change with someone else's mere touch. If I don't intervene, just go to the academy like every noble child, the future that I know will come true but if I intervene right now, everything that I know can be useless." I said with an unsure expression.
"What you said makes sense." Ilelia said with an understanding expression and nodded.
After a minute of silence, Ilelia asked with a serious tone. "How I will die?"
I took a very deep breath to raise Ilelia's expectations and opened my mouth.
"I don't know." I said with a dejected tone and shook my head.
"What? But you said that you know my death?" Ilelia asked with a confused expression.
"I don't know how you will die, my goddess. I just know that you will die, all of the gods and devils will die, and even this world will be on the verge of destruction." I said with a hopeless expression.
"How? Will a war begin between the gods and devils?"
"I wish it was something simple as that but it is nothing like that." I said with a sad smile.
"Millions of dark creatures will come to this world with portals for unknown reasons. They are intelligent and incomprehensible creatures, they are hard to kill because of their resistance to mana. They will kill and burn everything they see without any mercy." I said mysteriously like a cliche prophet.
When I spoke like a cliche prophet, I remembered the fact that there was a demigod of prophecy in this world.
'Does the demigod of prophecy not know this? Probably not or else he would tell to the gods and ask for help.' I thought but didn't think more than that. I didn't care about the demigod of prophecy or his reason.
"When will they come? Are they resistant to divinity? How can we win against them?" Ilelia asked rapidly without giving me time to answer.
I opened my mouth to answer the questions but my eyes were going dark for some reason.
"You are waking up... We will speak again later and you will answer my questions." Ilelia said seriously.
"Come to my church. We can talk again on my holy grounds..." This was the last thing before I woke up.
