Chapter 21: The Truth About Tiera

Leah Yaklander wields a sword and faces Carol, the man she once respected.

"Uncle Carol ......"

"Your Highness, I have taught you all your swordsmanship, and I know all your moves well," Carol said in a cold voice, "You should know very well that there is no chance of winning against me." ”

Although she had no intention of being caught, the girl's heart was also full of confusion at this time.

Her mother died in childbirth and her father died young, and many in the palace when she was a child believed that this was due to her grandfather, Jacaland XI, who did not believe in the gods, and regarded her as a blasphemous person who survived. Even though the people were well hidden, the girl noticed that they hated herself and wanted to distance themselves from her.

It can be said that in Lia's childhood, the closest person was her grandfather, Tiera's fallen king.

Leah's grandfather, known as the King of Foolishness and Blindness, believed that the gods were parasites of the world, and although they were far more powerful than humans, they did not help the world, humans, and civilization in the slightest, and even became an obstacle to the progress of the times because of their desire for human faith, so he became an unbeliever, and fabricated the Church of the Game God as the state religion to cover people's eyes.

The reason why 'games' was chosen as a disguise for his belief was also because Jacaland XI believed that entertainment was indispensable for improving national happiness and allowing people to relax after a hard job.

In fact, during the reign of Jacaland XI, Tiera's power once exceeded that of several surrounding countries combined.

But this is the source of the calamity.

Holding a vessel full of gold and precious stones, and without the strength to protect this wealth, it is natural that others will covet it.

Although Tiera had an astonishing fortune, there was no god who could shelter the kingdom. In the face of other armies protected by gods, mortal armies with better weapons and better armor were still defeated, and were finally torn apart and swallowed up by the surrounding countries.

In order to give Leah a chance to escape, Riah's grandfather, Yaklande XI, still desperately resisted in the castle after the imperial capital was breached.

In the end, the impregnable castle was burned to the ground by the clergy of Ampollio's 'Golden Temple', who believed in the sun god Ampollio......

Wouldn't you be defeated if you didn't bow down to those parasite-like gods? Was it wrong for my grandfather to just want to be happy with the people?

At this moment, the girl's heart was at a loss, and the original incomparably determined idea of revenge and rebuilding the Tiera empire seemed to be shrouded in fog, and she could not find a way forward.

This confusion will naturally make Lea distracted in the confrontation with Carol, and as Leah's swordsmanship instructor, the former chief of guard of the Royal Guard, even if it was only a momentary distraction, was keenly grasped by Carol.

Before the girl could come back to her senses, Carol had already stepped forward, easily dodged the flank of the other two attendants, and picked up the weapon in Lia's hand with a sword, causing Lia to stagger back two steps and almost fall to the ground.

"It's over." The cultist leader, shrouded in a black cloak and wearing a mask on his face, let out a sinister laugh, showing no interest in the ornately decorated sword that had fallen in front of him.

Carol plans to take advantage of the victory to pursue, as long as she catches Leah, this operation can basically be regarded as a complete victory, and it doesn't matter what the others do.

However, at this moment, an extremely dazzling light suddenly lit up out of thin air, stealing everyone's vision almost instantly!

When the light disappeared, the cultists were surprised to find that all the remnants of Tiera, including Lia, who had just been surrounded, had disappeared, and only Carol, who had betrayed Tiera, remained in place, confused and completely unaware of what was happening.

And after being wrapped in light, Leah was the first to react.

She found herself in a pure white space, and the guards around her who had come here seemed to have turned into hard stone statues, unresponsive, unable to be awakened by any means.

"Don't waste your efforts, their faith is too shallow, and they can't face the gods for the time being."

An unfamiliar voice made the girl immediately vigilant, and subconsciously wanted to draw her sword, but found that she no longer had a sword, so she simply pulled it out from the guard next to her and made a vigilant gesture.

"Gods?" The girl clearly looked disbelieving. She could only faintly see a humanoid creature not far away, and it should have been the one who had just spoken.

"That's right."

"Then you must be mistaken, the real untrustworthy are here!" After understanding her current situation, the girl thought for a moment, and then seriously mentioned the conditions to Xiwei: "Although I don't know how you brought us to this kind of place, I still want to thank you...... You should be aiming for me, right? In that case, those guards are innocent, and if you let them go, I don't care what you do! ”

Although she didn't believe that the person she spoke was a god, she was able to take them away in an instant surrounded by cultists, which was obviously very powerful, and even more tricky than those cultists. At this time, it is completely unwise to resist stubbornly, otherwise simply get some information from the other party's mouth first.

"That's a pity, I'm not a god of fornication." The other party, who was in the white void and couldn't see his figure clearly, and could only see a shadow of a figure also spoke: "You should have heard my name, after all, you prayed to me not long ago......"

"What?!" The girl was stunned.

"Let's introduce myself again," Sivi smiled slightly, and it seemed that the fish had taken the bait: "I am the god of the game!" ”

"God of Games...... Do you really exist? ”

It seems that because of the long prayers that have not been answered, even a devout believer like Leah has begun to doubt the authenticity of the god of games. If Xiwei didn't show up this time, it is estimated that his faith here would be completely severed.

"I'm sorry, but I just woke up, so I couldn't help when Tiera fell." Sivi continued in that deep and mysterious tone: "But your long prayers have not been in vain, I have awakened and will be back in the kingdom of my friends, Tiera!" ”

Hearing the gods she believed in say such things, Lia felt that her heart was full of mixed feelings, and she did not expect to receive the help of the gods who had been silent all this time when such mountains and rivers were exhausted.

At the same time, the girl also has a feeling like a wandering traveler has finally found a place to return home and returned home.

It was so warm that it made her want to cry.
