Part 3 The Traveler Chapter 216 The Fifth King of Angels
The gods traveled on earth, not in the astral realm …… At the beginning of the Fourth Age, during the time of Solomon’s Empire, there was no boundary between myth and reality, and the gods traveled directly on earth, without having to descend?
This is similar to the Second Age recorded in the Silver City canon, where places such as the Court of Giants were separated from the real world by a “gate”, so they could pass through and go back if they wanted to, and the gods and humans were mixed together in chaos and darkness… …Also, the Astral Realm really corresponds to the gods……… Hearing Viscount Mobet Zoroaster’s description, Klein instantly made a connection.
He subconsciously swept a glance at Grosel, as this giant was most likely a personal experience of a certain part of the history of the Second Age!
Grosel picked up a cup that was even more exaggerated than a barrel, gulped down a mouthful of melted snow water, and laughed:
”Mobet, isn’t this a normal thing? Why are you being so serious?”
”I don’t know why I’m so serious.” Mobet Zoroaster showed a little bit of a smile, “Haha, what is normal to us may be very scary and hard to believe in their eyes, and I have to tell it with a suitable expression in order to achieve a satisfactory effect. Do you remember the expression on Longzell’s face when he first heard us tell those stories? It seemed like he wanted to fall to his knees and confess to the ‘Storm Lord’.”
”…… “For a moment, Klein, Danez, and the others were at a loss as to what expressions and words to use in response.
Anderson, on the other hand, inclined his body in the direction of Germaine Sparrow and lowered his voice:
”I have a feeling he has a talent for being a provocateur.”
He appeared to be controlling his volume, but the words could actually be heard by every creature present.
Mobet didn’t mind as he chuckled twice and continued where he left off:
”I know that you guys don’t really believe in this matter of gods walking on the earth and have a hard time accepting it, just like Edwina did before, hehe, I can give you two examples, the ‘Storm’s Abyss’ located on Pasu Island and the ‘Deep Ember Heaven’ located in the Amanda Mountain Range ‘, respectively, are the divine kingdoms of the ‘Lord of Storms’ and the ‘Goddess of Darkness’, divine kingdoms located on the ground, separated from the real world only by an illusory ‘gate’ of the Divine Kingdom!”
Pasu Island? Isn’t that where the Storm Church’s holy altar is today? The Amanda Mountains …… Amanda means serenity in Hermetic, and this is a reference to the sanctuary, the Church of Serenity? When the gods stopped traveling the earth, the country of the K’s became the headquarters of their respective churches? Klein intuitively assumed that Mobet Zoroaster wasn’t lying, and made a certain judgment accordingly.
Danez, on the other hand, listened with some bewilderment and fear, and subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but after looking at the focused and serious captain, the thoughtful Germaine Sparrow, and Anderson Hood, who had “sentences” such as “I’m very interested” written all over his face, he had to forcefully hold back, and uneasily searched for a more comfortable seating position.
Just at this time, the elf singer in charge of vigilance, Shatas, walked in and said disdainfully:
”Don’t mention that false god, the authority of the storm only belongs to our elven king!”
Her voice was clear and soft, but her tone was full of anger and rage, as if she would raise her hands at any moment and give Mobet Zoroaster an arrow.
”Okay, I’ll substitute pseudo-god.” Mobet raised a hand and stroked his pointy, hard black hat.
Shattas withdrew her eyes and addressed the shallow believer in the “Lord of Storms”, former Ruin soldier Lonzel Edward:
”Your turn!”
Longzell raised his head a little, with a slight trance still lingering in his demeanor.
He didn’t seem to pay attention to the conversation and argument that had just taken place, and pulled up the iron black straight sword that was stuck at his side, and took a step towards the entrance of the cave.
Klein watched for a while and seized the opportunity to address Xanthas, the elf:
”Do you know the ‘Queen of Heavenly Disasters’ Gauhinaam?”
In fact, he was not sure that Gohinam was the “Queen of Natural Disasters”, the subordinate god of the Elf King Sunyasolem, and he asked this question because he was waiting for the Elven Songstress Shatas to give him an answer.
A trance similar to Longzell’s appeared on Shatas’ softly-lined delicate face:
”I haven’t heard the name of k for a long time, k is, k is the queen of our elven clan.
”Mobet and Longzell didn’t even know k existed ……
”Where did you meet k, no, know about k situation?”
Saying that, Shatas’ tone became eager all of a sudden.
At that moment, Daniz had looked at Germaine Sparrow in dismay, lamenting the fact that this madman was so knowledgeable that he could have a common topic with an elf suspected of belonging to the ancient world.
”I didn’t realize you were a scholar …… couldn’t tell, couldn’t tell ……” Anderson, on the other hand, shook his head as he sighed.
”Lieutenant General Iceberg “Edwina’s gaze similarly turned to Klein, with a strong sense of curiosity in her light blue eyes that were as clear as spring water.
Klein responded matter-of-factly:
”I entered a relic belonging to the ‘Queen of the Natural Disaster’ Gohinam and obtained some items.”
”A relic?” Shatas chewed up the word in a low voice, sounding as if she had lost something that wasn’t really important but she couldn’t let go of.
”From the looks of things there, K might not actually be dead.” After seeing Shatas’ eyes light up, Klein asked bluntly, “Do you have the magic potion formula for ‘Ocean Singer’? What can I trade for it?”
He felt that it was best to be honest and direct when dealing with the extraordinary people of the “Storm” pathway.
Shatas thought for a moment and said:
”Let’s exchange it for one of the Queen’s items.”
”I only got a wine cup made of gold, which has been flattened and has an intricate floral pattern and the two Elvish words ‘Natural Disaster, Goshinam’ inscribed on its surface.” Krynn made no secret of it.
”I know that cup, it was the Queen’s favorite cup.” Shattas couldn’t hide her excitement, “Deal!”
”The cup is outside.” Klein had no idea of going above the gray mist in front of everyone.
Shatas nodded:
”I understand.
”When we leave the book, we’ll complete the deal.”
With that said, she closed her palms together and said:
”The storm shall belong to the elves!”
Without waiting for the others to speak, she asked curiously:
”What else did you find there?”
”Some murals that tell of the battle between the elf king and the ancient sun god.” Klein glanced at the ascetic Snorman, who was said to believe in “the creator of all things, the all-knowing God”.
The middle-aged man with his back to the flames facing the stone wall finally hissed:
”No, k is not just the sun god.
”k is our Lord, the father of all things, the root of greatness.
”k is not fighting the King of the Elves, but merely reclaiming the authority that is his.”
As soon as Snorman’s words were out of his mouth, Shattas stood up at once and aimed the tip of an arrow at him.
Suddenly, the elven singer’s long, dark hair, tied into a ponytail, fell apart, flaring wildly above and around him against the laws of nature, and those strands, rooted and distinct, were all entwined with silvery-white electricity, translucent with a strange, deep-blue hue.
Shatas was just about to release the bowstring when a huge gray-blue palm suddenly appeared in front of her, blocking the arrow tip without fear of being pierced.
It was none other than the palm of the giant Grosel, one of the characteristics of this race was the exaggerated, almost monstrously long proportions of its hands and feet, so he simply sat down and held out his arm, stopping Shattas.
”Well, Snorman don’t say another word, you know, Xanthas is an elf who prefers actions to words.” Grocer said to the ascetic first, then turned his head to the elf singer, “Shatas, we are companions, companions who have experienced many dangers together and can give our backs to each other, you can retort against Snorman, you can even beat him up, but you cannot try to hurt him.”
Worthy of being the protagonist of the travelogue, full of positive energy …… However, what is the difference between punching him and hurting him? Klein couldn’t help but mutter twice.
Shattas grunted and resumed her seat, and the scene was silent and rather awkward for a moment.
Giant Grosser looked around the room with his vertical one-eye and grinned:
”Then I’ll tell a little about my past experiences as well.
”Before entering this book, I lived in the ‘Giant’s Royal Court’ and was one of the caretakers of the ‘Forest of Decay’, where only our king can enter, and where it is said that k’s father and mother are buried, the source of our giant clan .”
”The Giant’s Court consists of many parts, and the Forest of Decay is one of them? The oldest ancestor of the Giant Clan was buried there? Klein listened very attentively, wanting only to ask more.
For him, this is more valuable than the history of the Fourth Age, because the hope of Silver City is probably in the “Giant’s Court”.
However, before he could open his mouth, Edwina had already preempted his question:
”Grosel, what did this book look like when you got it?”
Grosel raised a hand to rub his cheek and said:
”It was nothing, like a blank tome waiting to be filled out.”
I had guessed before that Grosser might be a full-blown book character …… Klein deliberated for a few seconds, and instead of directly inquiring about the details of the “Court of Giants”, he turned his head to look at Morbette Zoroaster and said:
”Do you know about ‘Blasphemer’ Amon?”
”‘Blasphemer’ refers to the entire family of Amon, they are our mortal enemies of Zoroaster, it is said that they have a very powerful and terrifying ancestor, even the two Lords Uroelius and Medici are quite important, and even a little afraid, but no one knows the exact name. ” Mobet elaborated.
Urolius, Medici? Well, at that time, the “True Creator” and the “Redemption Rose” were both supporting the Solomon Empire …… Klein’s heart moved, and immediately asked:
”Then have you heard of the name Saslir?”
Morbet was stunned and slowly shook his head:
”Never heard of it.”
The name “Dark Angel” Saslir disappeared after the Cataclysm? Buried? Klein was certain of one fact.
Just then, the ascetic Snorman, who was facing the stone wall, spoke in a husky voice:
”Sasriel is a ‘Dark Angel’, the head of the King of Angels, the one closest to the Lord.”
I was waiting for you to answer …… Klein turned his gaze to the ascetic and asked in a low voice:
”What are the kings of angels other than the k’s, Urolius, Medici and Amon? You don’t have to say the names of the k’s.”
Klein was afraid of an unwanted reaction, like the “confessor” in the afternoon town.
Edwina, Anderson and Danez were in a state of bewilderment from earlier, as Germaine Sparrow was communicating with several ancient figures in a way they had never heard of, and they couldn’t believe that this crazy adventurer was in possession of so many hidden secrets and knowledge!
Snowman was silent for a few seconds and said:
”And, the ‘Angel of Empty Thoughts’, Adam ……”
As soon as he uttered the name, the entire cave shook with vigor, and the familiar madness of tyranny descended sharply!
”The King of the North,” Urisian, had sought him out!
