So I'm a sheep.

'I signed long-term employment agreements; there are definitely more than just this one group.'

'Why does the Grand Duke inexplicably want to develop those islands?'

The captains looked at each other and realized that they were all old acquaintances.

Every industry has its own circles, and these are the big shots within those circles.

"Oh, so you've landed this good job too."

"Hehe, this isn't the only trip."

"Are you still up to the task, you old bones?"

"If you can do it, then of course I can too!"

Ignoring the captains' casual chatter, the knights waited solemnly.

Finally, the priests, burdened with heavy responsibilities, arrived.

"We pay our highest respects to you, noble pioneers!"

“My lord’s loyal knights, we will rely on you much more in the future.”

After a brief exchange, the priests boarded the ship, and the knights followed.

"..."

The captains looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock.

Today is a day destined to be recorded in the history of Brendo, as the first 'pioneers' set sail!

......................................

As the demons acted, the nations began to descend into turmoil.

With frequent palace coups, being a king has become another high-risk profession in the world.

The clergy's faith is constantly tested, and the temptations of the devil often linger in their ears; a moment's carelessness could lead to a fatal mistake.

'Do you want to become an archbishop?'

'Poor child, you could have saved him.'

'False gods cannot give you what you desire; embrace the abyss!'

The demon lords probed the strengths and weaknesses of the various churches. The Church of Glory, which they had originally targeted, was abandoned because the goddess Saya reacted too strongly.

Now, they have finally found suitable prey again.

'Tsk tsk, a corrupt church, a slow-witted God.'

'Safrass isn't slow to react; he's simply powerless to help.'

'He who gazes into the abyss will be swallowed by it; not only Sulfuras, but even that supreme god!'

He possessed weak divine power and suffered a backlash for his presumptuous attempt to make prophecies about the abyss.

A God who struggles to respond to believers, a church that is unable to receive divine revelation and is gradually degenerating.

Haha, it's you!

Book 1: Chapter 518 Necessary Sacrifice

The web of conspiracy is tightening, but the slumbering Safras remains completely unaware.

until......

"what!!!"

The God of Prophecy awoke in agony, and the first thing he heard was not the praise of his believers, but a barrage of blasphemous words.

"Foolish gods who peer into the abyss!"

"A powerless god who cannot respond to believers!"

"I call upon your name not to sing praises, Sulfuras, for the abyss is your only refuge!"

One by one, the statues of gods were toppled, and the high-ranking professionals who had transformed into blasphemous priests greedily absorbed the divine power of Sulfuras.

The filthy blood was splashed on the temple, and a large number of demons descended and danced there.

Destroy it!

Fall!

Your divine kingdom will surely collapse.

Your true form will surely fall into the abyss!

"Fallen ones, filthy demons!!!"

After Sufres deliberately severed countless abnormal faith lines, the excruciating pain that felt like his body was being torn apart finally subsided.

Sitting blankly on the throne, Safrass felt his own exhaustion and weakness.

The faith offered by the supplicants could not even effectively alleviate the injuries. He had been seriously injured and asleep for only a little over ten years. How could the situation have deteriorated to this extent?

'...'

'My faithful believer'

Sufferas attempted to send down an oracle through the few remaining strong threads of faith, and immediately received a response.

"Great God of Prophecy, you have finally awakened!"

“The fallen have seized power, my lord, your church is no longer pure.”

"The devil's minions are chasing us; we beg for your protection!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Sulfuras used his remaining divine power to save his last follower.

'Lie in hiding, and then pray.'

One day the filth will be cleansed; be patient.

........................................

The situation had deteriorated to an unbearable degree, and knowing that he could not turn things around on his own, Saphras began to actively seek help from the gods.

However, most of the princes were too busy to help the poor god of prophecy.

Those gods who truly had the power to lift Safras up did not wish to save him.

'The fall of Sulfuras is a warning to the gods.'

'Not a single prince has perished, and some gods are still unaware of the gravity of the situation.'

'This is a necessary sacrifice'

After a series of setbacks, Safras began to desperately seek any treatment.

He shamelessly sought help not only from powerful gods, but also from princes with medium, weak, and even negligible divine power.

"Please help me, Your Highness Saya! I know that thanks to your effective initial measures, your kingdom is now completely at peace!"

Ah, this...

How dare you presume to acknowledge me as a new god?

"Your Highness Safras, I am truly sorry."

Sasha said helplessly, "Brendo is in financial trouble right now, and they can't even pay the soldiers' salaries."

"How can we help you in this situation? Please understand."

"Your Highness Saya, could you please take in my poor believers?"

"The devil's minions are relentlessly hunting them down; I must preserve the flame for the church!"

Sasha still looked troubled: "I'm sorry, I can't help it."

"Are you really going to stand by and watch a deity perish?"

“Your Highness Safras, you should say this to those powerful princes.”

"I'm barely able to take care of myself, so I really can't help you."

Seeing Sasha's resolute attitude, the God of Prophecy left in despair.

"..."

I wonder how long Safras can hold on, twenty years? Thirty years at most.

...........................................

Safras can protect his followers once, twice, three times, four times!

But if the demon's minions launch a relentless attack without regard for losses, after ten or a hundred times, even the god of prophecy can only sigh in despair.

The flame of the church was extinguished, and Safras lost all his believers in the material world.

He was out of options and could only hide in the Kingdom of God, waiting for the end of the world to come.

Under the watchful eyes of all sorts of complex opinions, and after persisting for another twenty-seven years and three months, Safras's divine kingdom began to crumble.

Fragments of the divine kingdom began to fall off, a slow and irreversible process.

Finally, with a roar of defiance, Sulfuras fell from the realm of the gods.

Safrass, who should have fallen into the material world, was instead pulled directly into the abyss by some immense force.

The gods cast their gazes into the abyss...

It was pitch black; they couldn't see anything.

clang--

The bells rang urgently, and the second Council of the Gods convened in due course after a year of turmoil.

"..."

This time, the council was no longer presided over by the sun god Losanda, but by the war god Tempas.

"Your Highnesses, let us observe a moment of silence for the god Sufferas."

Although none of the gods offered Sulfuras any help, their faces were filled with deep sorrow.
