In the following week, the residents of the City of Defense experienced a series of earth-shattering changes.
Firstly, almost simultaneously, the followers of the Paradise Sect heard the call of the divinities.
While the divinities had responded to their prayers in the past and even made appearances to accept their audiences, these were always confined to within the Holy Hall. It was the first time that divine edicts directly entered their minds. The followers who heard the holy sounds were ecstatic, feeling that they had drawn one step closer to the divinities.
However, some claimed to have heard a young male voice, others a pleasant female voice, and still others insisted it was a wise old man; in short, there were various claims... This led everyone to swiftly adopt a new notion: the image of the Paradise Master was far from merely the Goddess with Twin Wings. When walking among mortals, the form taken was varied and different for each individual, not fixed.
