Chapter 26: The God of Love and Beauty
The city of Arendelle was protected by the Ice Goddess, and as he approached the palace, Stephen felt a slight fluctuation in his powers.
It seems that the rumors may be true, the goddess of ice and snow is really the legendary 'eldest princess' of the royal family of Arendelle, she is said to be the reincarnation of a goddess who once ruled the winter, and was once active in the Sage Havoc period, but has rarely appeared since then, and even the incarnation of the gods is rarely seen. Not all gods like to run around in the main material plane, in the last few hundred years, the two most frequent appearance of the gods incarnation are 'Styx Guide' and 'Cat Goddess', these two are not very powerful gods, the former is the god of death, a weak god god that will appear in the form of a cat-eared girl in a legend, and the latter is a god who has existed for a long time, she is simply looking for excitement and likes to run around to try novel things, this goddess's priesthood includes [cat] and [dance] , as well as the Death attribute.
But luckily, cats have nine lives.
Stephen wanders through the city of Arendelle like a regular tourist.
But at this moment, a woman's slightly magnetic voice suddenly sounded next to the small man-made fountain next to it, and her voice seemed to have a unique magical power, which made people can't help but immerse themselves in it, and unconsciously listen carefully to what she said.
"Believe in true love!"
"Beauty is not just on the surface, it comes from the heart. Believe in the sanctity of love and believe that true love will win eventually. ”
"Women should also have the right to pursue true love and happiness. ”
"The God of Love and Beauty loves all the people in the world, pray to her with your heart, accept her, praise her, then you will receive the blessings of love, and one day true love will come to you. ”
"We should protect those things that are beautiful and support those who create them. ”
"Like the great artists. ”
"Love and beauty are the true source of happiness, and only by pursuing them can we be happy. ”
The woman who spoke was a charming woman with long fiery red hair, she didn't look very old, she was about to be in her twenties, and her appearance could be said to be one of the best, with the softness of a southern woman, and the feminine enthusiasm that was unique to Arendelle. She wears the emblem of the face of a beautiful woman with long fiery red hair and ivory skin on her chest. This deity emblem is particularly recognizable, as only Sookni, the goddess of love and goodness, will use his own appearance as a deity emblem. Her faith was valued in the increasingly open Arendelle, where the church often sponsored artists and advocated for women's empowerment.
There are many ways to create a social formation.
The southern countries are conservative and women have a lower social status, while Arendelle belongs to the reformers of the human race and advocates more status for women. As for the matriarchal society of female supremacy like the Drow Elves, it is also prevalent in a small number of races.
Stephen in the crowd stood out.
The red-haired lady who was preaching the teachings of love and beauty involuntarily fell on him, and then her eyes lit up, and she walked up to Stephen with a swaying posture and said, "This gentleman, do you believe in true love?"
Stephen's expression couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then he smiled, "I believe everything I see. ”
Not the answer you wanted.
The red-haired lady was a little disappointed when she heard this, but because of Stephen's charm, she couldn't help but invite: "If you have time, your Excellency can come to the Temple of Love." I'm sure you'll be welcome. Maybe there, you can meet your true love. ”
Hearing the red-haired lady's words, the people around her, especially those men, couldn't help but show a hint of envy and jealousy.
Belief in the god of love and beauty is casual and has been somewhat hedonistic in recent centuries, and she protects true love, including those who are married but still looking for freedom, romance, and true love. The Temple of Love often holds some masquerade parties, and many married noble ladies will quietly attend. There are nearly half more women than men among the followers of this goddess, and it may be a little better in the last one or two hundred years, but women still have an absolute advantage, and many excellent men in Arendelle are proud to have received an invitation to the temple of love.
"I'll go when I have time. Stephen smiled.
The goddess of love and beauty is in charge of the beautiful priesthood, and her field of charm is quite powerful, which is why Stephen is unconsciously attracted to her priest. This goddess belongs to the kind that is not dangerous.,Although it's a powerful god, it's just a role to fish in the gods.,The only combat god to master is protection.,Belongs to the kind of main god who is not very powerful.。 This confrontation between the Lord of Death and the Lord of Light has nothing to do with her, and her main concern is to compete with the Elven God of Love and Beauty for believers, but so far her faith has only spread among humans, because the Elf's concept of love should be loyal, but there is a slight problem in her teachings.
The goddesses of the hedonistic sect in this crystal wall system are all Bichi, and those goddesses who are not hedonistic are quite dangerous, and Stephen doesn't want to deal with them very much.
The red-haired lady seems to want to keep Stephen to listen to the teachings of the gods of love and beauty, but Stephen has left without hesitation.
Joke.
There are so many maids in the house who are usually quite noisy, how can they still have the leisure to waste time in the temple of love.
In the Dark Abyss, Stephen had a legion of succubi, and he had no interest in a place like the Temple of Love. But having said that, after a long walk around, Stephen unconsciously stopped in front of a beautiful temple of ivory white, because he felt a hint of the aura of the gods here.
"Meow~!"
Just as Stephen was hesitating to go in and take a look, a cat meow came from the corner, and then a charming lady walked out of the temple with a lazy white cat in her arms.
After seeing Stephen, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then the space around her seemed to be cut off.
"Who are you?" said the charming lady with a wary expression.
"As you can see, it's a passerby. Stephen tilted her head and looked at the other person's hair, Love and Beauty loved the long fiery red hair, and the other person's hair was not this color, so she was not the embodiment of Love and Beauty God. However, looking at her calm appearance when she came out of the Love Temple, she should also be a member of the Love God Department, so Stephen asked tentatively, "Lady of the Cat?"
She likes to run around the goddess of love the most, and since the goddess of love and beauty saved her from the goddess of the night once, this lady has lived near the kingdom of the goddess of love and beauty.
"Say!" Lady Charm's expression became even more nervous, and she said in a quiet voice, "Who are you?"
"It's impossible for a mortal to recognize me at a glance!"
