Chapter 26: Has Lord God Left? |
The girl had a title that struck fear into the world—the Deep Sea Witch, Fiona.
She was one of the members of the witch organization.
Just moments ago, she had already confirmed that she had been played! Played by some nobody with no reputation whatsoever!
This matter had to be explained starting from early this morning.
The Deep Sea Witch was an ambitious witch. She wanted to steal the authority of the gods and become a god herself.
For that, she needed a large number of believers.
Thus, she came up with an excellent idea—manufacture a batch of fake ritual items and spread them across the continent.
As long as she could gain the power of faith through these items, she would be able to descend through this faith consciousness. As for what came next, it would be easy to handle.
She would tamper with their cognition, make them believe in her, and lurk within the Human Empire to develop more followers for herself.
And that day was not far away, because the Deep Sea Witch had already sensed the loosening of the seal.
Just this morning.
The Deep Sea Witch had felt a surge of powerful faith energy.
Originally, she thought that this time would be just like before—she would gain another devout believer.
But who would have thought that the moment she arrived, before she even had time to tamper with the consciousness, she was forcibly pushed out of the believer’s body by an even stronger force.
This was a power of a higher order.
Strictly speaking, the Deep Sea Witch had only learned how to utilize the power of faith. She had nothing to do with actual gods.
As for the one who forced her out, she guessed that it was most likely a certain god.
Clearly, this believer of hers had been taken a liking to by some god.
Although she didn’t know the reason, the Deep Sea Witch was not foolish enough to challenge a true god.
Besides, who said that a god’s believer couldn’t be used by her? It wasn’t like she hadn’t succeeded in such things before.
Thus, the Deep Sea Witch sent a nearby monster closest to Vivian to investigate the situation.
But who would have thought that after the monster she sent out left, it died inexplicably. And at that very moment, she once again felt that familiar power of faith.
This morning, when she invaded Vivian’s body, that god must have known. They might have even told Vivian about it.
So when she sent her subordinate over, Vivian chose to silence it directly. The Deep Sea Witch did not find that surprising.
What she couldn’t tolerate was that right after silencing it, Vivian used this method to humiliate her.
This was practically a direct slap to her face—how could she endure it?
.......
Vivian was completely unaware of the Deep Sea Witch’s situation.
At this moment, in Vivian’s small bedroom, the light of the magic lamp illuminated her as she wrote furiously at the desk.
She wasn’t surprised at all that her prayer just now had failed to reach the gods.
It was inherently difficult to receive a response from a god.
Just now, she had only wanted to give it a try.
Failure was only natural.
Of course, even if this plan failed, Vivian still had another plan.
Lord God would control her body. She only needed to write down what she wanted to say to Lord God on parchment in advance.
When the time came, Lord God would definitely see it.
Although Lord God might not necessarily listen to her, it should at least make Him restrain Himself somewhat.
Vivian thought innocently.
She was very confident in the letter she had written to the Evil God.
She did not directly try to dissuade Him.
Because Vivian clearly understood her own limits.
So the general idea expressed in the letter was that she was still weak right now, while Silvermoon City was full of powerful individuals.
Therefore, it would be best to lie low for now and slowly grow stronger.
Once she became strong enough, then she could act without any scruples.
Every line was filled with sincerity, all expressing her respect for the Evil God—how she had completely devoted herself to Him and was His most loyal believer, everything she did was for His sake.
Vivian believed that aside from amusement, the Evil God must have other motives for controlling her.
So after seeing this letter, Lord God’s behavior would definitely become more restrained.
“This is just the first step of communication.”
“In the future, I can write letters every day and gradually change Lord God’s behavior.”
“This way, Lord God shouldn’t do anything too terrifying.”
After carefully rereading the contents of the letter, Vivian thought naively.
After finishing all this, Vivian, who had been busy all day, was finally able to rest properly.
Lying on the bed, her thoughts were a tangled mess. She felt extremely lost about her future.
Just like that, amidst all kinds of wild thoughts, Vivian gradually fell into a deep sleep.
.....
Early the next morning.
Listening to the chirping of birds outside the window, Vivian rubbed her sleepy eyes.
After yawning, she finished washing up.
“Another day with great weather.”
As she spoke, she looked at the clock hanging in the room and calculated the time.
“Two days later will be the new students’ registration day.” While speaking, Vivian tidied herself up and prepared to go out for breakfast.
But just as she was about to leave, her gaze suddenly fell on the letter she had written yesterday.
Then, Vivian suddenly realized something.
“That’s not right!”
“Where’s the Evil God?”
Subconsciously moving her body, Vivian immediately realized something.
No wonder she had felt that something was off since the morning.
“So the Evil God left?”
At this moment, Vivian seemed to realize this terrifying possibility.
“That’s right! Why would the Evil God come in the first place?” Looking at the parchment on the table, Vivian suddenly thought of this question.
After all, that was a god.
And she—
Was just a nobody.
Perhaps yesterday had merely been the god’s whim, using her body to do all kinds of unbelievable things.
And after having His fun, He left. That was perfectly normal.
Why had she assumed that the god would come again?
“So…”
Thinking about the mess the god had left behind after leaving yesterday, Vivian felt her head spinning.
Recalling how she had been thinking last night about how to sever her connection with the god, Vivian found it somewhat laughable.
She had been too presumptuous.
“So… what should I do…” Vivian staggered slightly as she sat down on the chair.
At this moment, her mind felt like a muddled paste.
“Wuwuwu… so what should I do…”
However, just as Vivian was falling into despair, that familiar voice suddenly sounded in her mind again, instantly filling her with joy.
