Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 820 Enlil's Purpose
“Lily, how should I tell you this…” Smart was also helpless. “They themselves don’t care about these things at all.”

After all, if they were truly unhappy with their positions, these guys from the Enser pantheon could easily give them up.

They are concepts!

It's like a law that inexplicably gained consciousness.

Even if they condense a body to participate in something for a reason, it's just a passing fancy, and nothing can stop them from abandoning that body and their responsibilities.

As for the Enser pantheon, most of the existing gods are not the original ones.

For example, Raman, the god of war, thunder, rain and storms, handed over his divine office to Anho, the god of war of Mulholland.

Aslan, the Avenger, simply left the pantheon and became Hall of Toril.

Most of the Enser pantheon can use gods, so even though Hall became the messenger of misfortune, he is still the Lord of the Three Thunders.

Hall... is a very special existence in Toril; he can join whichever faction he wants.

Tyr was asking him to join his side.

Do you know why? It's because even though he is a smaller manifestation of a law... the reason why Hall and Raman are eternal enemies is because Raman is the larger part, but Hall still possesses some of the properties of a law incarnation.

He is neutral in nature, but if he follows a particular god, he will align himself with that god's camp.

Moreover, it can change whenever it wants.

Only Gilga and the others, the second-generation gods created using bodies governed by laws, are true gods.

Well... once someone's dead, they're dead.

Smart hesitated for a moment before saying, "Just like humans, consciousness and memory make up the human soul."

But the reason why the soul can be condensed is because of that spark of inspiration within it.

The River Styx and the will of the world protect this glimmer of light, not the souls themselves.

God is like that too.

Their brilliance, however, is divine.

Divinity and the soul are both composed of the divine personality.

Therefore, many gods can accept that they are completely different from their previous selves after reincarnation... as long as there are no problems with their divine status, they are still themselves.

For them, the soul is like the outer garment.

As for angels and demons, those so-called soul beings... they don't have this spiritual light as their center.

As you should know, gods can easily create incarnations, and humans can even split themselves into several... Although they may go mad, they are still themselves, all because of the effects of divinity and spiritual light.

Even the devil, even Asmodeus, the king of devils, has no divine status.

Therefore, he could only use a soul projection, rather than an avatar with a strength almost equal to his original body.

Do you understand now?

Aggris noticed that Smart was trying to avoid discussing the specific composition of the Law Incarnation.

But she wasn't completely clueless when she heard this... In a sense, their newly formed embodiment of the world's will was a similar being.

Living Feather is a magical creature with extremely keen intuition; he would never do anything he shouldn't.

Perhaps, just as the gods said... the will of the world has already prepared for his return.

Even in a remote place like their Qingfeng Territory, the impact has already been felt.

Yagris looked down at Lily and the others and warned them softly, "If you understand, don't deliberately bother Smart."

I understood everything.

She has been catching up on a lot of lessons lately, all of which she took with these three.

Lori was a thoughtful and considerate child. She didn't want her mother to be ignorant after the world changed so much, and to just drift along and watch others compete. She also didn't want to force Agris to study.

After all, in his heart, protecting his family and friends and safeguarding his territory was his duty.

So he held those general knowledge classes at the Yagris estate, claiming that there were plenty of invigorating plants there to keep the children alert.

Yagris, who was with the little dragons, could choose whether or not to listen.

Of course, I, Yages, will listen.

Her biggest mistake back then was choosing a shortcut because she thought it was too much trouble... to improve her situation by getting married.

But she overlooked her own proud nature.

Although Lori had always felt that being a countess was frustrating and difficult, at this point, Gabrielle could rationally say that it wasn't entirely Count Montes's fault.

If she were a patient, loving woman who understood the suffering of others... Montes Castle wouldn't have fallen into such a divided state.

Although the count's two sons are no good, and they have a bunch of shady characters around them stirring things up, if she can be patient... she can still deal with them.

But why did she do that?

She chose Montes to avoid trouble, not to invite trouble upon herself.

Moreover, with her pride as a great knight, she would only consider the Montes family's wariness of her as an insult... She wouldn't care about the title of earl! Unless her son was so useless that he couldn't live without an earl's title.

But Lowry is so talented... even if he wasn't a mage, he would definitely have good knightly talent!
Only now did Yages realize that although she was also of noble birth, the absolutely cold-blooded environment of the Gezar family made it difficult for her to deal with those complicated and convoluted situations. The straightforward military style of doing things made it difficult for her to adapt to some things.

Count Montes was actually blinded by her outward display of intelligence.

He was looking for a wife who was intelligent, kind, skillful, and adept at navigating complex environments.

After marrying him, she discovered that Aagris was a serious knight who would draw his sword at the slightest provocation.

Neither of them can say anything about the other.

It's all because we didn't spend enough time together before marriage and we were too good at pretending.

Of course, the strangest thing is that she wanted to be lazy but ended up digging her own grave.

Although this chaotic marriage resulted in her having a wonderful child like Lori, Gabrielle still received the harshest lesson.

Laziness and wishful thinking will never allow her to have a better life.

Besides, her previous wishful thinking only led to her own downfall.

Now, she's about to get herself into trouble with her own son!
That's not okay.

It was precisely because of her diligence that Mrs. Yages was very clear about the progress of these little dragons' general knowledge lessons... whatever she could understand, Lily and the others could definitely understand as well.

Pretending to be stupid won't work.

After a moment's thought, Lily whispered, "I miss Lori."

“It’s no use, Lily.” Lady Agris stared at her. “Even if Lori were awake now, he wouldn’t try to take this adamantite plate.”

“That’s not necessarily true.” Lily, her words ruthlessly exposed, stood up again, her two front paws flailing wildly. “Lowry may be good at controlling himself, but he’s still a dragon!”

He's also a mage!
This is something that both sides would encourage him to fight for!
What if he suddenly wants it?

Lily knew very well that, under the current circumstances, the only one who could quickly reach the battlefield was Lori, who could switch positions with Living Feather.

However, Lowry exists in a demiplane.

If Lowry is tempted... and then hides Bolaños in the demiplane, that would definitely be a great success.

Gilga is nothing compared to that!
Anyway, she realized that the most troublesome person was Enlil, but that guy would never make a move.

After all, for the incarnations of the laws, their purpose in collecting treasures is not for the sake of wealth.

It doesn't matter who it's given to!
Wouldn't it be better to give it to them?
He could also get Bolaños to give his unfilial son a good beating.

Lily promises that she can make Gilga suffer so much that he'll run away at the sight of Tiamat... then he won't get killed, right?
Tiamat was their great-grandmother, Lily knew from a young age. Except when she saw gold, silver, jewels, or Bahamut, she was incredibly lazy.

But Tiamat holds grudges.

The Enser pantheon considers Tiamat their eternal enemy!

Even Hall didn't do anything good.

He follows Ben Basha around, always offering slanderous advice and bringing bad luck to the dragons he encounters.

Dragons are generally not very lucky.

Therefore, Tiamat will definitely make her move when she has the opportunity and doesn't need to exert much effort.

Gilga is such a useless piece of trash... he'd better learn to behave himself.

Enlil shouldn't place his hopes on his son; wouldn't it be better to let him live?
“Compared to this unfortunate son, what Enlil desires even more is the resurrection of his eldest son, the moon goddess Nanna-Sin,” Statter warned. “This is the only consensus he and the separated Inanna share.”

So, if you don't want to get involved, don't...

"Wait?" Weiss asked, somewhat confused. "What does this mean?"

“As children who embody the laws, their resurrection is not as easy as that of other gods,” Statter replied calmly. “They don’t have any proper divine duties.”

Nanna-Sing's so-called moon goddess is just a glimmer of light in the darkness, faint and powerless.

In the pantheon of the Enser gods, he was extremely weak.

He couldn't even obtain the divine office of war, which even the goddess of love possesses.

Enlil and Inanna eventually broke up completely because they realized that having a child together would only lead to trouble.

Since there is no divine authority to determine the fate of the world, if gods wish to be resurrected, they can only do so through the path of faith.

But Enlil and his group neither knew nor understood these things.

For them, the clergy is the embodiment of their will.

For example, they felt sympathy when they heard the cries of countless slaves captured across the universe by a certain mage system in Toril, and they were also filled with war spirit because they knew that the pantheon was very powerful. So when they appeared on the continent of Faerûn, they all carried the divine office of war.

Enlil and Inanna couldn't understand why, despite their strength, their two sons were so weak.

Nanna-Sing is alright; although she doesn't love war, she's kind enough. The other one, well…
