Don't call me evil god

Chapter 897 The Weight of Secrets
"Perhaps you should have guessed it."

"Regarding the secrets of the New Gods, it's not that I don't want to make it public, but I can't do so."

Miranda suddenly felt something.

She remembered what the devil Evelyn had said.

"Knowing secrets comes at a price."

"Now that you know the secret about God, why not try praying to Him again?"

Miranda immediately said seriously: "Unwavering belief in the existence and greatness of the gods, is this one of the conditions for obtaining their blessings?"

"Once people know the truth about the incompleteness of the gods, their hearts will be shaken involuntarily."

"Will this vacillation prevent us from receiving those blessings?!"

Kenreddin corrected a detail in Miranda's account:

“Not inwardly.”

"It's the soul."

“Knowing a secret requires a price, and this price will be forever engraved in your soul the moment you learn it.”

"The characteristics imprinted on the soul are far from being made up by so-called 'firm faith' alone."

"I have to admit that in order to protect this kingdom, we need the power controlled by the New Gods. Therefore, this secret is destined to never be made public."

"However, your presence has allowed me to see another possibility."

"A true god with a mysterious origin has bestowed His blessings upon mortals!"

“You are different!”

"He is a unique existence in the New Huili Era!"

Pete suddenly spoke up:

"Wait, Your Majesty."

"You seem to have made a mistake."

"Nowen, the God of Knowledge, should not be the only true God. Resti, the Goddess of Illusion, whom we once helped under His guidance, should also be a real God with thoughts and divine power!"

Kenredin hummed lightly, not surprised by what Pete said.

"you're right."

"To be precise, it was only after you solved the Ceylon Eternal Night Disaster that I realized a possibility."

"The goddess of illusion, Resti Maisie, is in charge of illusions, illusions, control, and mysteries. She is the god of puzzles and the embodiment of desire. She is a slender woman with a graceful figure. She has mood swings and has thousands of different faces. Therefore, every mortal who receives Resti's blessing will see a different goddess of illusion when praying."

"He never really 'opens his mouth' to speak. All the oracles that mortals can obtain are the result of Him influencing mortals' senses through illusions."

"These descriptions and records..."

"They all come from the old days."

Van Cleot Fafnir confirmed in his hoarse voice:

"In that vanished era, there was indeed a god believed in and worshipped by mortals, her name was the Goddess of Illusion."

The lifespan of dragons is extremely long, with an average lifespan of several thousand years, and some powerful ones can even live for nearly ten thousand years.

In a world where gods can also fall and disappear.

Dragons can even outlive gods.

The reason couldn't be simpler.

The existence of believers represents the establishment of a connection between gods and mortals, and the blessing of protection corresponds to the blessing of faith.

This is not the case with dragons.

If a doomsday disaster like the end of the gods occurs, they can always hide in the safe dragon's nest, lie dormant, and wait for a turnaround in the mortal world.

If you want to know about the old days, the dragons are undoubtedly the best people to ask. They may be able to show you the witness records of those days.

……

"Since the Goddess of Illusion has successfully avoided the end of the gods, she has even recovered her strength and started to provide blessings and protection to mortals again."

"Then it makes perfect sense that there are other gods who did not disappear in the end of the gods!"

"hiss……"

Pete blinked, his thoughts drifting back to more than half a year ago, when he prayed desperately in that secret cave and received the first response from Noven.

"Returning from a long sleep!"

"Oh, Nowen! So the answer is hidden in the riddle!"

Pete understood.

Many things become natural in an instant.

No wonder King Kenreddin has always treated them differently and given them far more attention than usual!

With the emergence of the Church of Knowledge, when the followers of Noven began to be active in the Ceylon Territory, especially when they turned the tide and resolved the Eternal Night disaster, Kenredin obviously noticed them.

In such a world where there are only "incomplete gods".

Suddenly a real god appeared.

In the eyes of true "insiders", the existence of the God of Knowledge is so dazzling that it is hard not to pay attention to it.

Once you discover the uniqueness of Noven, you can then infer his "origin".

The answer is ready to come out.

A remnant of the old days, a true god who does not belong to this era!

Completely different from the incomplete false gods like the Xinhui gods!
"I'm telling you the secret. This is where my confidence comes from."

Kenredin pointed his finger upwards in a very simple manner.

"I believe that a powerful and true god is definitely paying attention to every conversation between you and me at this moment."

"Taking a vow based on faith is the greatest protection."

"There is absolutely no possibility of you leaking any information."

"Otherwise, there would be no need for me to deal with you. The punishment you deserve for breaking your oath is enough to make you pay the real price."

Pete opened his mouth, but hesitated.

He actually wanted to say something.

Did King Kenreddin trust the three of them a little too much by telling them these things so carelessly?
What if they are crazy and determined to spread the "dangerous" secret knowledge, so that no one on the continent of Plantis can receive the blessings of the New Gods?

In that case, only believers of the God of Knowledge in the entire continent will be able to continue to use the so-called "divine" power.

Overnight, those blessed believers may become ordinary people.

If this secret were known by the cultists, then they wouldn't have to go to so much trouble to summon any monsters. Wouldn't it be enough to just print the secret knowledge on small leaflets and distribute them all over the continent?
Kenreddin seemed to have predicted the doubts in Pete's mind in advance.

"It's not as easy as you think to spread the secret."

"To change the characteristics of the imprint on the soul, it is not enough to rely on your words of mouth. It is far from enough."

"As early as when Trommissus used the perfect blueprint, the dragon set up an extremely powerful seal for this hidden danger."

“Only those who have personally witnessed all of this happening are qualified to share this secret with others.”

"At that time, the only people present were Trommissus, Arathi Mokred, and the dragon who witnessed the secret, Vancro Fafnir, the Lord Watcher among the dragons."

"Now, are there any questions?"
