Chapter 7: After the Turmoil

"Archbishop, why don't you catch him!" Seeing Artevans swept away without a trace by a blast of air from Sia, this made Notek think that Siya was deliberately shielding Artefans.

But when he turned his head and saw Siya spreading out the eight pairs of holy wings, Notek held back what he was about to continue, and then he felt that Siya was angry and really used all his strength to kill Artfans.

When Artevans was about to strike again, Siya put himself into the state of Oracle Leap, and used nearly eighty percent of his strength to knock Artevans out of the forest in an instant. The air currents that Sia swung out even left a visible trail on the ground, and the trajectory of Artfans's flying path could also be seen through the fallen trees that had formed a passageway.

Although Siya's shot just now was in the eyes of the clansmen because he was angry and killed Atvance, Siya controlled his power very accurately, and other clansmen may not know Atvance's strength, but Siya is very clear. His own shot would indeed cause Artevans a lot of damage, but it was not enough to kill Artfans.

"Like, it's me who has lost my eyes and cultivated the scourge of a god heir. As an archbishop, I don't see anything wrong with that. As for the deceased, I feel sorry.'"

Siya lifted the oracle and leaped, and the holy wings retracted into his body and slowly fell to the ground, "Bury the dead well, as for Artfans, if he dies, he will eradicate a scourge, and if he does not die, it will be his fate." Notek, if I deal with it like this, you should have no opinion.'"

"Archbishop, twenty years ago, you personally brought Artevans here, and now he is a demon, how do you explain this?" Notek seemed a little reluctant, questioning Siya.

"But he still has the blood of the Divine Heir, doesn't he, it proves that he is indeed a child of the Divine Heir, but I have never found out his true face." Siya clearly sensed that Notek was making things difficult for him, so she sank her face and looked at Notek with a serious gaze, "As long as he doesn't cause damage to the Divine Heir, I don't need to care about what power he has, but if he causes damage to the Divine Heir, it's just like just now. Is there anything wrong with what I did?'

Notek wanted to say something, but Siya's words did make Notek not know how to refute it. Siya's prestige in the Divine Heir Clan is very high, and his handling of this matter is not inappropriate in the eyes of other clansmen, so Notek gave up.

As a result, Artevans was knocked out of the Lamas Forest by Sia, and his fate was uncertain. The six people killed by Artevans were led by Siya to be buried in the eastern sanctuary of the Ramas Forest, where the heirs of the gods were buried.

However, the incident caused by Artevans also caused confusion and suspicion within the Divine Heir Clan, and many clansmen were subjected to strict bloodline screening, especially on the side of the main battle faction led by Notek, who were almost panicked.

The news soon reached the ears of Talia and Rodt.

"Tell me the truth, Rodt, if you knew anything before Artvance did this?" On that day, Talia specially called Royat into her room and asked sharply.

"Sister Talia, I don't know what you're talking about, why are you questioning me like that? I'm also surprised that Brother Artevans is a hybrid of the Divine Heir and the Demon Clan. As for him going to do this, how could I possibly know? You know the character of Brother Artevans.'"

It wasn't all about lying, he did know that Artevans had the power of the demons, but as for the fact that Artevans had demon blood, he didn't know at all. Although the clansmen are saying that Artevans has been sanctioned by Sia, Rodat believes that Siya will not kill Artevans with his own hands, after all, it was Siya who brought Atvance to Pano Village in the first place. Moreover, for so many years, Siya's attitude towards Artevans, Royat saw it in his eyes, and he felt that Siya couldn't do that.

"Do you really, know nothing?" Talia looked at Rodt's eyes full of suspicion, and she thought that with Rodat's relationship with Artevans, she probably knew something. But judging by Rodt's innocent expression, it seemed that he really didn't know.

If Royat didn't know, then she could only go directly to Siya for verification.

Despite knowing Artevans for twenty years, Talia's understanding of Artevans is almost limited to the fact that Artevans is very strong and that he was brought back as a disciple by Siya in the first place.

"I'm going to find the master, do you want to come along?" Talia felt that only with Siya could she know what she wanted to know.

"Of course I do." Roya nodded.

(Brother Artevans, we'll be able to see you again.) Although, when we say goodbye, we may already be on a different side. What is the world outside the forest of Ramas? I really envy you, if I had that chance, I would have liked to see it for myself. )

Talia didn't know that at this time, Loat had a thought in his heart, like a seed, that gradually took root in his heart.

————————————

After a day of turmoil, the forest of Ramas calmed down as darkness began to fall. Although there were some fluctuations within the Divine Heir Clan, under Siya's control, the situation did not reach a very serious level.

"Master, excuse me, can I ask for something?"

Just as Siya had tidied up the things in Artfans' house and returned to the church to get ready to rest, Talia and Rodat came into view.

"What's the matter?" Siya looked at Taria, and at a glance, he saw a strong curiosity in Taria's eyes, "It seems that I probably know your intentions for coming."

Before Talia could speak, Siya continued, "It's a bit long, sit down and listen. The matter of Artevans starts decades ago, with his father......

"Atfans' father, Antros, is my best friend. He is one of the few "wanderers" in the Divine Heirs, and loves to travel around the world. Originally, Anteros was the best candidate for the archbishop, but because of his personality, the former archbishop felt unstable, and finally the former archbishop and the elders decided to make me the new archbishop."

"It was about forty years ago, after I took the position of archbishop, in order not to burden my heart, Antros decided to travel far away again, although his plan was initially opposed by the elders."

"It's just that Anteros has helped many people on every one of his previous journeys, and his name also has a certain prestige in this world, which has invisibly made the reputation of the Divine Heir Clan continue to grow in this world. In view of this, the elders eventually respected Anteros' idea and let him leave the forest of Ramas.

"However, in the twenty years since Anteros left the Llamas Forest, there have been more voices among the Divine Heirs who want to conquer the world, and Notek, as one of them, also saw this opportunity and later became the leader of the main battle faction. Just twenty years ago, Notek joined forces with several elders of the main war faction to propose that Anteros be called back.

"I didn't know what was going on at the time, so I used the archbishop's sigil to recall Antros. And the moment he came back, I understood the intention of the main battle faction, and at this time, Antros had a demonic aura on his body."

"I was so surprised that I asked Antros what had happened, and he didn't tell me in detail, but begged me if I could take care of his children, and that the matter should be kept secret from all the people."

"After he said this, I completely understood that during the time that Anteros left the forest of Ramas, he fell in love with a demon and gave birth to offspring. I also understand why the main battle faction would propose to call back Antros. They somehow learned about Antros and wanted to execute him on the charge of being too close to the alien race and revealing the secrets of the Divine Heir."

"With my prestige at the time, I couldn't stop this, and I could only watch my friend get executed. However, Anteros did not accept his execution with peace of mind, and he fought with the elders of the main war faction for a day and a night.

"Antros's strength is also very strong among the Divine Heirs, and although the elders eventually defeated him, it also paid a huge price, and many of the elders died as a result. At the time, I didn't know why the easy-going and quiet Anteros had suddenly become so strong, but now that I think about it, he probably wanted to weaken the main battle faction and give me, the archbishop, more control over the Divine Heir."

"You must know about the war, but you don't know the inside story. Later, before he died, Anteros gave me a pendant in the shape of a skeleton and asked me to give it to his child, Attfans, when I saw fit, and he told me where Atellos was before he died.

"After Anteros' death, I secretly found Atfans hidden somewhere in the Ramas Forest, brought it back, and concocted a reason for Atfans to live in the village of Pano. To make up for my regret that I couldn't help Antros, I treated Artevans as my own child. In order to keep him safe, I banned him, sealed his demon power, and hid his demon mark in the secret room."

"Atlence was silent and seemed hostile to everything during that time, and I wondered if I could erase his unpleasant memory. But I soon found out that I was too self-conscious, Atvance's mental power was too strong, and his mother must have been a powerful demon. Moreover, the demon bloodline that Artevans possesses is the highest rank of the demon clan's dark devil, and I can't modify his memory at all, so I gave up."

"But after that, Artevans lived in the village of Pano as if nothing had happened, and you know what happened next. It's just that I didn't expect that he would already have a hatred for the Divine Heir at that time."

Siya told Talia and Royat about this past almost unreservedly, and after saying that, he sighed helplessly.

"So, Brother Artevans, is there no relative, and what happened to his mother?" Royalt's curiosity was piqued.

"I don't know, but my mother must not be having a good time either." Siya shook her head, but suddenly it seemed to think of something, "If you're going to say that Artevans might have relatives, it's that there's a mark on him that I care about. It was a special mark, on Artevis's back, but it seemed to be only half of a complete mark.

"You mean, it is very likely that Uncle Antros and that demon had two children, and then carved the mark in half on the two children?" Talia thought for a moment and said.

"It's possible, but it's up to Artevans himself. I have no way to interfere with his future path, and everything I can do has been done."

Siya said, stood up, and silently walked to the depths of the church. All he could say to Talia and Roate was finished, and he left.

After saying this, Siya also felt a little better in her heart. The past of Artevans is like a boulder, weighing on Siya, very heavy, very heavy.

"Sister Talia, you seem to have something in mind." After Siya left, Rodt looked at Talia beside him and said, "What would you do if you met Brother Artfans again?"

"I don't know, but if he has become an enemy of the Divine Heirs, I won't be relentless." Talia said, clenching her fists.

Rodt looked at Talya's appearance, smiled helplessly, turned and left the church.

(Sister Talia, it seems that the Divine Heir Clan is the first in your eyes, and you are indeed the best candidate for the Archbishop.) However, I am different from you, I admire Brother Artevans, and if you want me to be an enemy of Brother Artevans, I can't do it. Brother Artevans, you, are you alright...... )
