"Newly ascended deity, what brings you to me?"

Then the Grey Sea King spoke in a booming voice, and judging from his tone alone, it seemed that the Drowned God did not welcome Viserys's arrival.

The Drowned God indeed had no divine affinity in the divine realm. He had been all alone for many years and had no friends. He simply locked himself in the Flowing Water Palace and never went out unless necessary. He secluded himself for hundreds of years, so he could be considered an old recluse.

These were the things Viserys learned from the Old Gods before he decided to visit the Drowned God.

As the oldest living deity, the Old God can be said to have watched all other deities grow up. Therefore, it knows everyone very well, including the Drowned God.

Knowing in advance that the Drowned God had a 'bad temper,' Viserys was not discouraged even though he could hear the unwelcome tone in the other party's voice. Instead, he directly stated his purpose.

"Drowning God, I want to ask you about some things."

"Find me?"

"what's up?"

Gray Neptune's tone was still full of impatience as he spoke.

"The Seven Gods".

"I'd like to know how the Seven Gods got injured?"

Viserys then didn't beat around the bush and asked directly.

Upon hearing Viserys's question, the Drowned God paused slightly, then fixed his gray eyes on Viserys, scrutinizing him for a while before speaking.

Why do you want to know this?

"Of course there are some things I don't understand."

The Seven are the most powerful gods in Westeros, and second only to R'hllor, the Lord of Light, in Asgard, though this is only true within the Western world.

As the Seven Gods are the most worshipped deities in the Empire, Viserys would naturally be quite concerned about their affairs.

Most importantly, the Seven Gods were severely injured in the Valyrian cataclysm hundreds of years ago and have not yet recovered. They remain in a dazed and confused state, having lost their self-awareness, as if they had been reduced to a mere spiritual entity. Even if Viserys wanted to find the Seven Gods to understand what happened back then, he was unable to communicate with them.

Viserys needed to understand the specifics of that battle for various reasons, and the Valyrian ruins were of paramount importance to him.

Viserys relayed what Rahlo had told him to the Drowning God, whose expression was slightly sarcastic after hearing Viserys's words. He remained silent for a while before finally speaking.

"Kid, knowing all this won't do you any good."

"But this is my own business."

Viserys persisted in asking the question.

"Humph."

When the Drowned God heard Viserys say this, he fell silent again, then finally couldn't help but snort coldly before speaking.

"What? The Seven Gods were severely injured in a counterattack by the Valyrian gods?"

"He was the one who betrayed the Seven Gods back then, which is why they are in their current state!"

Chapter 908 The Battle for the Divine Realm

The words of the Drowned God were extremely shocking. As the leader of the divine realm, the King of Light, Rahlo, actually launched a sneak attack on the Seven Gods during the great war of the divine realm hundreds of years ago.

This caused severe damage to the seven gods' bodies, leaving them in a daze and unable to recover. They have not appeared since then.

"Is that so?"

Viserys' expression tightened slightly when he heard the Drowned God reveal the truth so bluntly.

But he wasn't alarmed, because he had come to find the Drowned God because he had discovered some clues.

The Old Gods lowered their branches, allowing Viserys to witness the grand spectacle of that great battle, where R'hllor led the gods of Asgard to besiege the Valyrian gods.

The Seven Gods faced off against Balerion, the most powerful of the Valyrian gods at the time, known as the "God of Death."

Meanwhile, the drowning god faced off against Vajhar, the Valyrian god of lava and fire, and Miracis, the goddess of the sea and raging waves, who was also the host of the nameless statue held by Viserys. She was utterly defeated by R'hllor and perished on the spot.

After killing Miracis, Rahlo flew straight towards the direction where the Seven Gods and Belerien were fighting. However, his actions were seen by Drowned God, who was closest to the main battlefield in this chaotic battle.

Then the Seven Gods were severely injured and nearly perished, but Rahlo arrived in time to rescue them and killed Balerion, the god of death and the chief of the Valyrian gods.

However, this was only Lahllo's version of events, but the Drowned God did not believe it.

At that time, the drowning god was fighting with Valyrian fire god Vaghar, and the seven gods were fleeing in his direction as if they were avoiding a terrible enemy.

At this moment, the Seven Gods were already severely injured and in a daze, only managing to escape on instinct. Seeing this, the Drowned God quickly broke free from Vaghar and rescued the Seven Gods.

He then looked in the direction the Seven Gods had fled from, wanting to see who was chasing them. The next second, he saw Raholo, the King of Light, the leader of the gods of the divine realm and the mastermind behind this great war, appear in the distance.

Rahlo was slightly surprised when he discovered the Drowned God, but his expression quickly turned anxious.

Rahlo rushed over, claiming that he had killed Bellerion and wanted to get closer to check on the state of the Seven Gods, but Rahlo's actions were met with a firm refusal from the already suspicious Drowned God.

The relationship between Drowned God and Lord of Light Rahlo was already strained. Drowned God had an impatient temperament and didn't really like Rahlo's ways.

He always secluded himself in the Water Palace located deep beneath the Sunset Sea, rarely participating in mortal battles, nor in the battles of the gods. As a result, after repeatedly hitting a wall, Rahlo's attitude toward trying to win over the drowning god cooled down.

However, after the war in the divine realm ended, the Drowned God did not voice his suspicions in front of the other gods. Although the Drowned God was not a sociable person due to his personality, it did not mean that he was unaware of the current situation in the divine realm. The gods and spirits of the continent of Essos had long been loyal to Rahlo.

Westeros has always been a special place in Asgard, because the Seven Gods are second only to R'hllor, the Lord of Light. Therefore, the gods of Westeros, both large and small, have always huddled together around the Seven Gods for mutual support.

However, this time the Seven Gods suffered a severe blow and nearly perished on the spot, and the gods of Westeros were no longer able to resist the westward expansion of R'hllor's influence.

Therefore, although the Drowned God had doubts and was convinced that it was Rahlo who had ambushed and seriously injured the Seven Gods, he did not directly step forward to identify the culprit. He knew very well that even if he spoke up, no one would dare to stand on his side and oppose Rahlo.

So the Drowned God simply left without a word and led the Seven Gods back to Westeros to recuperate.

With the gods retreating in Westeros, theoretically no one in the mortal world could stop the Red God's influence from spreading westward.

But at this moment, an unexpected person entered the vision of the gods: Aegon Targaryen the Conqueror.

The Targaryen family was also among those who escaped the Valyrian War of the End. They hid on Dragonstone and narrowly escaped the War of the Gods, thus preserving the existence of their dragons.

The Targaryen family spent several generations recuperating on Dragonstone before launching a full-scale invasion of Westeros under Aegon's leadership.

The Targaryen Dragon Aspect conquered the ancient continent in a very short time. Just when the gods thought that Valyrian Freehold was about to rise from the ashes, Aegon suddenly converted to the Seven Gods of Westeros, which shocked all the gods who were concerned about the changes in the mortal world.

The changes in the mortal world have a great impact on the gods in heaven, which is why the gods try to expand their influence in the mortal world in various ways.

However, the gods in the heavens had just launched a great war, and all the participating gods were greatly affected. Although Rahlo wanted to crush the Targaryen family, this ant, he was somewhat powerless to do so.

Thus, the westward expansion of the Red God faith came to an end in such a dramatic way.

For the next three hundred years, the Targaryen family ruled Westeros, and the Red God Cult had no further opportunity to expand into the Western world. It was not until the Targaryen family was overthrown that they attempted to expand westward again.

Then R'hllor invested heavily in Viserys, providing him with men and weapons, and even treating him as his representative in the mortal world, helping Viserys win two wars against the White Walkers.

In return, Viserys brought the Red God faith into Westeros, preventing the Church of the Seven from becoming the sole dominant force within the Empire.

But now Viserys' growth seems to have exceeded Rahlo's expectations, catching him somewhat off guard.

Viserys' power not only extends to Westeros, but also to the continent of Essos. Viserys is emerging as the next obstacle for R'hllor to take further steps.

After so many years, the drowning god finally found someone to confide in, but after telling Viserys everything, he found that there was no surprise on Viserys' face.

"So you already knew?"

The mortal body of the Drowned God was once the legendary human hero, Grey Sea King, and he was naturally a clever man.

When he saw the expression on Viserys's face, he knew that the other man had already guessed something, which was why he came to him for confirmation.

"That's true, otherwise you wouldn't have come to find me."

The Drowned God spoke calmly.

"So what do you plan to do next?"

Chapter 909 Infiltrating Park City

Viserys visited the Water Palace and was having a private conversation with the god of drowning.

Meanwhile, Jaime Lannister, who had been released by Viserys, wanted to see Cersei, but he was still a spirit, and even if he walked up to Cersei, she could not see him.

Jaime also did not want to enter Cersei's dream through a dream.

Therefore, at the place where Theon Greyjoy, who had drowned not long ago, was buried, a hand suddenly reached out.

Because it was a hasty burial, the ground was still very soft, exuding the fresh scent of soil and grass.

Two or three months have passed since the end of the long night, and everything in the world is gradually recovering. Among them, grass is the fastest to recover, and soon it covers the mountains and fields, adding a touch of green to this world that has been in a long period of desolation.

Jaime possessed Theon Greyjoy's corpse. Since Theon had only recently drowned, his body was still warm and had not yet begun to decompose. Therefore, Jaime used Theon's body to 'resurrect' him.

Jaime dug himself out of the dirt and then saw an Ironborn staring at him in disbelief, as if he had witnessed something extraordinary.

Hearing the noise, Jaime turned around and looked at the other person. The man, seeing Theon's corpse looking at him, was terrified and turned to run away.

But Jaime certainly hadn't forgotten what the body's owner had just experienced. He didn't seem to be welcome on the island, and Theon's good uncle was eager for Theon to die. If he received news of Theon's resurrection, he might choose to kill him again.

Although Jaime hadn't fought personally in a long time, he was still quite skilled. He lunged at his opponent, who shakily drew his sword. Jaime, controlling Theon's body, was unarmed and could only fight bare-handed.

Then the opponent roared to embolden himself and thrust his sword forward. However, this was the opportunity James had been waiting for. After all, he was unarmed and would be courting death if he attacked first. Therefore, he could only wait for the opponent to make the first move and then seize the opening.

Jaime, a renowned knight throughout the Seven Kingdoms and later a Faceless Man killer, would naturally find dealing with such a minor figure a piece of cake.

Taking advantage of the opponent's thrusting sword, he deftly dodged the sword by slightly turning his body, then grabbed the opponent's wrist, twisted it, and the longsword fell to the ground. James then pulled the opponent into his arms, holding the opponent's wrist with one hand and tightly choking the opponent's neck with his arm.

The Ironborn was having difficulty breathing, his face flushed red. He hadn't expected Theon to become so powerful after coming back from the dead. He kept kicking his legs as if trying to break free, and even wanted to beg for mercy, but Theon's pale face was cold, and he still looked like a dead man.

Before long, the iron-type creature's struggling strength gradually diminished until it lost all strength, its body went limp, and it completely fainted.

Such a method of killing without leaving a trace would be a piece of cake for Jaime, who was once a Faceless Man. But when the other man fainted, Jaime showed no mercy. Instead, he dragged the man's body to the sea and let the cold seawater fill his lungs, drowning him alive.

Watching his opponent drown, Jaime felt the pent-up emotions in his body lessen considerably, because Theon had drowned, and he felt a sense of revenge.

After killing his opponent, Jaime picked up the dagger and longsword from the man and put them on his own body. Then he raised his head and looked into the distance.

This place is Old Wick Isle, and the person he wants to see is on Pike Isle, in Pike Town, which is also the home of House Greyjoy.

Cersei remarried, and Jaime was heartbroken. They were two people in love, but Jaime fell in love with a woman he shouldn't have, and he was practically being cuckolded.

Cersei was first married to Robert, and later imprisoned in the Red Keep.

As a young and beautiful former queen imprisoned in the palace, what would happen to her is self-evident. However, Cersei has now been allowed to leave the Red Keep and has been married to Euron Greyjoy.

Jaime followed Cersei's footsteps all the way, picking up green hats from behind her, until now he could finally see Cersei again.

This was the closest the two had come to meeting since Cersei's attempt to capture Jaime and send him overseas failed on the eve of King's Landing's surrender. So many years had passed since then.
