Chapter 41 - Chapter 41: Greeting

The unqiue looking houses for sale that was built in the residential areas along with its protective moss that will prevent fires.

The layout of the market district, in addition to the perfect location as it is in very heart of the city.

The bustling workshops with its advance machineries compared to the demi human kingdom.

The bulletein board that shows all the laws currently sanctioned by the five lords of Heaven blaze city.

A closer inspection on the smooth dark road and all the street lights built on the side.

The lush fields that yield high quality crops which one can easily tell from a single glance.

The farm animals that are noticably in good condition, showing how high quality and fresh the food are.

"I hope those of you who want to stay here will be those who do not have a family that will be left behind"

Despite the fact that the construction of the city is still ongoing, the demi humans under Lenyas all acknowledge the fact that given enough time, this city under the supervisions of the five lords will soon match the powerful nations in the world.

"That is not a problem, milady. After all, we can just tell our families to migrate here to this city"

And that this is their opportunity, while it is still not yet known to the public.

"Hmm?"

"Has something caught your eye?"

Pomon asked one of the knights accompanying Lenyas.

"Sir Pomon... can you tell me who that church follow? I have never seen that symbol before"

After the knight pointed towards the church, the others looked at it with doubt as it was common knowledge for anyone in the world that there are only five deities in existence.

Each deity have their own symbol that represents their name, therefore it is imperative for everyone to know these five symbols in order not to accidentally make trouble with them.

"That is the church of enligthened rebirth who worships the God of Repentance"

".....!"

Lenyas and her knights were taken aback after hearing that there is a sixth deity.

"Is... is that true?"

Lenyas asked filled with worry.

"Of course. Lord Marco is the apostle of our God who we follow!"

As they all saw Pomon's genuine and sincere smile, indicating his unbreakable faith, towards the God he worships, they all could not help but accept this as a fact. As the truth.

What is more shocking to them is that Marco who seemed to be the most normal among the five lords whom they have met so far is actually an apostle of a deity they never knew about.

"This... this will shock the entire world"

It then came to them that this just might be one of the reasons why the Nine Heavens, who are deemed as Gods and Goddesses themselves, might be taking a passive stance towards the Heaven Blaze city.

"As you can see, our religion's symbol is a cross, inside a diamond, with a circle at the center.

The white circle represents the heart and soul of a person. The gray cross represents us who have impurities in our bodies. And the black cracked diamond represents as our shields against evil, which is our faith.

Only when one clears their mind and follow the way of the God of Repentance through atonement will one achieve a higher state and cleanse their body and soul!"

"....."

They were left speechless.

After taking a closer look, most of the citizens in the city appears to be followers of the church of enligthened rebirth.

"Let's continue on the tour, shall we!"

...

In the fish farm, Anise and Charlie who were on a break played with the fishes.

"Charlie, have you seen Tony?"

"Hmm? What do you mean? Isn't he in the school he built instructing the soldiers?"

"No. The one who is now taking over instructing them is the son of the former mayor of Azure something something city. His scheduled date for his return should have been two days ago"

"Well... he might be in his evolution phase. It took me two one and a half day to complete it so it won't be weird if he took additional time as well"

"Yes, yes. I agree with that as well"

"....."

The two could not turn around but instantly felt shivers run down their bodies.

"Say, could you give me a good explanation why you lot bothered creating a city here?"

As the pressure around them lessened, they managed to looked at the one who talked just now.

".....!"

They then saw a young man carrying both Veronica and Tony on his shoulder who are unconscious.

"We do not have a choice. If I say that, will you believe me?"

"....."

Marco who spoke up with confidence as he trembled from the cold sticky air creeping behind him surprised the man.

"Is something wrong? Is my friend's answer unsatisfactory?"

Charlie who caught up with Marco's thoughts played along.

While they certainly feel danger from the one in front of them, AQA or the system helping them has not warned them nor has it issued a mission regarding the person in front of them.

Thus the two came up with the answer that the one in front of them does not have any plan to attack them.

"Humans are also animals. And all animals can tell when their life is in danger. So... what exactly is it that forces you two to put up a brave front?"

"If you wanted to kill us, you would have already done it. Seeing as how you are here talking to us, means that you are only here to take a look and scare us"

"....."

The man who was squatting the entire time sat down after gently placing the two on his shoulders to the ground.

"Ah!"

Swoosh.

The pressure surrounding the two disappeared, leaving the two panting.

"The ability to stay compose while under a life threatening situation. The ability to cooperate without as much as a signal... how marvelous!

Those two alone is worthy for acknowledgement!"

"....."

"However, I can tell you both have yet to bond for a long time enough to know what the other is thinking about... that must mean you two are relying on something, right?"

"....."

"Something which you two fully trust as you both are influenced by whatever it is"

With each word, both Charlier and Marco became stiff as a statue as the man in front of them slowly deduced the existence, the source of their trust, which is AQA.

"Forget it. It looks like there is something more urgent that has come up"

[Warning!]

['s life is currently in danger!]
