Chapter 743: New Wings
The half-elf mage Tenaya lay quietly in the arms of the goddess Ishtar like a sleeping baby, in a translucent soul state, of course
Whether it is a human or an elf, even a powerful dragon, the soul will be inspired by the sea of souls to return to it after death, and if you want to maintain your soul state in the main material plane, you need an extremely strong obsession or in some areas where the aura of death is very strong, but whether it is the weakest ghost or the powerful lich located in the top pyramid of undead creatures, the soul without a body can stop the call from the sea of souls over time.
However, under the influence of divine power, Tenaya's soul was stranded in the divine domain.
"A very intact soul with almost no damage at all, which can really be described as a miracle of your luck┉┉"
The goddess Ishtar, the only lord of the world who is sung by 10,000 people in the eastern part of the continent, is gently caressing the face of the half-elf mage, and browsing some of the most unknown memories of her past: "┉ It's very similar, it should be said that it is really a replica of 'her', perseverance, bravery, and most importantly, tempered by suffering. ”
The goddess's body flowed with dazzling aura, and Tenaya's soul, which was wrapped in divine power, began to undergo a qualitative transformation, and a bright silver light began to appear in the entire divine domain, and the divine consciousness of the goddess Ishtar completely entered Tena's spiritual world.
The body of the half-elf mage has completely died under the impact of the power of frost, but for the goddess Ishtar, reshaping a body for Tena out of thin air is a challenge to break through herself, and more importantly, to reshape Tena's soul, even if she can create a powerful new body, Tena's soul is not enough to drive it, just like every lock has a matching key.
If the lock is the body, the key is the soul, and it is the prerogative of the Creator to create life out of thin air to shape the body and, above all, the soul. So what Ishtar has to do now is to create a new body for it on the basis of the original key, maybe this incomplete creation out of thin air is far from the creator of things, but it is also a huge breakthrough for the goddess Ishtar, who can make herself like a perfect step forward.
With the infusion of divine power, Tenaya's soul gradually materialized, no longer looking ethereal and ethereal as before, as if it would dissipate at any time, Ishtar closed his eyes slightly, and was fully immersed in his own affairs. Divine power is carefully reshaping every cell in Tenaya's body.
Gradually, the brilliance in the divine realm gradually dissipated, and the soul of the half-elf in her arms had disappeared, replaced by an angel suspended in front of Ishtar's eyes, with two pairs of wings that emitted white streamers, different from other armored angels, the female angel in front of her was wearing a silver robe inlaid with gems to hide her delicate and holy body, and the hood connected to the robe and the translucent veil covered her face, revealing only a little silver-blue long hair, a large book locked around her waist and a gorgeous short sword exuding divine power on her wrist, making the female angel look full of intellectual beauty。
"Hmm~ very good!"
The goddess buyer walked around the female angel in front of her in small steps, as if looking at a work of art that she was very satisfied with, and from time to time she used her divine power to make small improvements in the details: "┉You can come in Atinayi, do you have anything to report?"
As soon as the words ended, a female angel appeared next to the garden of the Divine Domain. Five pairs of emerald green wings carried the breath of life, making the entire garden seem to be bathed in vibrant sunlight: "Goddess Ishtar, Yarces and the others, who have traveled to the western part of the continent, have sent back an important news that they have met His Excellency Perenlius, the Angel of Redemption, in the western part of the continent. ”
When he heard the name of Poenlius, Ishtar, who was still looking at his work, couldn't help but stop.
"Pernlius still doesn't want to return under your wing┉┉" The voice of the angeless named Atinayi hesitated, because Pernlius had said something almost blasphemous, and he didn't know whether to say it now.
"Is salvation still lingering? ”
Ishtar slowly stroked Tenaya's long silver-blue hair, and the angeless did not hesitate to explain all the details, including the Goddess's questioning of the goddess's desire to devour the power of the Child of the Stars. Ishtar listened to these words, and there was no change in expression on his beautiful and holy face, as if he did not care at all that these blasphemous words were spoken by the wings he had once loved the most.
With a sigh, Ishtar said lightly: "After so many years of salvation, I haven't found the answer I wanted. And now that the answer has appeared, he doesn't dare to touch it, but he is still as stubborn and stupid as before, obviously has a pair of eyes that can see through others, but he can't see through himself from beginning to end. ”
"Goddess! I think Poenlius has seen it through, but his heart doesn't want to admit this fact┉┉"
"What Purenlius said is true, and although it is true that I do not want to unilaterally devour the Child of the Stars and merge with her, although our spiritual power is completely integrated with each other. But the Child of the Star had just landed from the stars, and her small personality and memories merged with me in the spiritual realm, like a drop of water in the sea, and in some ways the will of the Child of the Star alone could not be preserved┉┉As Purlius said, it was tantamount to killing an innocent soul. ”
The female angel Atina Yi was silent for a moment, and it seemed that she couldn't bear it. But in the end, he sighed: "Progress comes from sacrifice, at least Goddess, you are trying to put the world on the right track." ”
Ishtar looked at the aurora of the Divine Domain from afar, and finally sighed and said, " Whenever I see Perenlius, I feel like I used to see myself, I used to think that I can make this world better without paying a price, no more killing between races, no more fraud, no more sin, no pain, just like a delusional person, I used to simply think that as long as I remove the unstable factors and let all mortals run according to my will, then this world will definitely become the perfect world in my mind┉┉"
"But the years of 10,000 years have made me see the essence of this world and also see the essence of me as a 'god', the gods are not omnipotent, although the divine power can command the world to force the whole world to run according to my will, but what if 'I' myself is also corrupted?"
"The gods can command mortals, so who will command the gods? I've been thinking about this for a long time, and the more I think about it, the more worried I am that I have crossed the line called desire, I can't always guarantee that my eyes will never be cloudy, and I can't always guarantee that my decision is definitely from the original intention, I am not perfect so I need to be sublimated!"
Unlike the so-called false gods and evil gods in the world who proclaim that they are absolutely right and powerful, the goddess is always in pursuit of progress, always examining her own shortcomings, and can be said to be both a god and a reformer who longs for the world to move forward.
For thousands of years, Atinayi was well aware of the essence of the goddess she believed in, and it was precisely because of this essence that she attracted herself, presumably Perenlius was also attracted by this essence of the goddess, and entrusted the greatest wish of his heart to the goddess, willing to wield the sword in his hand for her, and willing to dedicate his life to her at any time.
"For your wishes, Goddess Ishtar, I will always follow in your footsteps. ”
"Thank you~ Atinayi, sometimes I still like to talk to you who are women compared to 'guard' and 'judgment'. ”
At this moment, Ishtar does not have the majesty of a god, just like a girl next door who is cared for and understood, with a sweet smile.
"Redemption is still confused, let him continue his journey, if he is not willing to see the process, then when the result comes, he will understand and choose to return to my wing. ”
"I understand, Goddess Ishtar!"
Atinay nodded, but then glared meaningfully at the angelic Tenaya: "Regarding the matter of Augusta, the prince of the Karlsmen Empire, as an arrogant blasphemer, not holding him accountable for his evil deeds is already the greatest mercy bestowed by the goddess, is it necessary for the goddess to come down yourself?"
"It's my choice, just like the one made by the White Dragon King in the past. ”
"Then at least you can send other angels to supervise Augusta, why do you spend a lot of divine power for a half-elf┉┉ Filth made by a dragon┉┉"
Ishtar smiled faintly and waved his hand to signal Atina Yi to shut down: "It's not filth, although those dragons are a little arrogant and actually try to challenge the Creator, but I don't resent their arrogant thoughts, at least they are trying to make progress better than other dragons in the comfort of the current situation." However, it seems that the Creator's greatest creation has never been a realm that we can set foot in, and perhaps this time after the sublimation of merging with the Children of the Stars, it will be able to answer some of my questions more or less. ”
"Then Augusta's side will arrange it according to the plan, can it? ”
"Of course. ”
After the female angel Atina Yi gradually retreated, Ishtar walked up to the angelic Tenaya, and then the goddess stretched out her finger and lightly touched Tenaya's forehead.
The divine power activated Tena's frozen soul and body in an instant, and gradually Tenaya slowly opened her eyes, and the half-elf, who was always calm and full of wisdom, was now like a baby who had just been born in the world, showing a confused gaze, but after noticing the goddess Ishtar in front of her, Tenaya's eyes became as if she saw the light of hope.
"Welcome to wake up, my new wings!"
With a smile, the goddess said lightly. (To be continued.) )
