Chapter 33: The Oracle

"Crete, what are you looking at?" Seeing that Crete was looking very intently, Alan couldn't help but ask curiously. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

Dolan ordered another cheese roast chicken, but before he could take his first spit, the roast chicken turned into a plate of shiny chicken bones in front of him. Lilia, who looked satisfied, wiped her mouth and burped and flew to Crete's shoulder, "Master, don't read with your head bored, why don't you tell these lonely guys about that oracle?"

Crete closed the magic book in his hand, handed it to Allen, and took a sip of his wine: "The oracle about the fifth main god・・・・・

Alan took the book and found that there was no handwriting on the cover, and when he opened the first page, it was also blank, and when he turned it back, it was a portrait of Christine!

"What is this?" Allen's eyes widened, and when he rolled back, it was Christine's last dress!

"I don't know, the contents of this magic book show what you want to see, such as Dolan looks, it's piles of piles of gold coins, Minos looks, it's a hymn to the gods, Lilia sees her people are lively and happy, Alan, what do you see?" Crete stuffed a piece of roasted brown fish into his mouth and chewed it carefully.

"I guess he's seeing him as a Guardian!" Minos said with a slurred bite of his face, and to prevent him from opening up the conversation, Dolan stuffed him with another piece of roast meat.

"I suppose you're seeing her," Crete said, pondering for a moment with his glass.

"Well, by the way, Crete, tell me about the oracle that Lilia said about the Fifth Lord God," Alan closed the magic book and handed it to Crete.

"About the fifth main god, the legend that circulates in the human world is this, a long, long time ago, the human world was born four main gods, four main gods against ten dragon emperors, and eliminated five of them, but in order to protect the human race from destruction, the four main gods turned into an enchantment, and the god of creation sent an oracle, saying that only the birth of the fifth main god can allow mankind to avoid the catastrophe of extinction..."

"Well, it is said that the fifth main god will be born from the guardian, which is the oracle left by the god of creation, which is why people train guardians so frantically, which is why guardians are so noble in the human world. Alan nodded in reply.

"But that's what it says in this book, listen," Crete said, opening the magic book and reading it earnestly, "the fifth Lord God will awaken from the source, grow in darkness, sleep in the garments of death, cut off all light and hope, have an epiphany in the blood of the dragon, and awaken in the time of extinction." ”

"What does this mean?" all three of them frowned.

"This is also an oracle of the God of Creation?" Alan asked rhetorically.

"I don't know, I've always wanted to know who the real Fifth Lord God is, but the book didn't give me an answer, only gave me these few words, and when I asked if these words were the oracles of the God of Creation, the book went blank again, but Lilia told me that they were indeed true oracles, because her Holy Spirit could sense the divine power contained in these words. Crete looked at Lilia, who had come back to her appetite and was holding the corn and munching on it.

Even immersed in the bliss of food, Lilia did not forget to twist her ass to signal that Crete was right.

"Okay, strange oracle, more like a spell..." Minos said after a moment's thought.

"Perhaps we can give this book to the City of Oracles, after all, the matter of the Fifth Lord God is related to the future of our entire world. Alan thought for a moment and said.

"Hey, brothers, don't you think this is a good opportunity?" said a drunken Dolan in a low voice.

"What do you mean?" the other three, plus the little goblin, were stunned.

"Ahem, I mean, it's a great opportunity to make money. Dolan wiped the grease stains from his mouth, his originally somewhat confused eyes suddenly sharpened, he looked around, and found that no one was paying attention to their table, so he lowered his voice and continued: "Obviously, this magic book in Crete's hand has powers that we can't explain, why don't we rely on this to make a fortune?"

"I don't want to sell the teacher's relics, so don't talk about it. Crete replied with a frown.

"But didn't Karbensis say that you should find the true Fifth Lord God? This is an opportunity, Crete. ”

"Don't talk about selling feathers, Dolan, I've listened to you, and sold the potions and miscellaneous items in the teacher's house, and this book and feathers can't be sold anyway" Crete, who had drunk the wine, lost his usual calm, and interrupted him before Dolan could finish speaking.

Dolan and Crete's words left Alan at a loss, and it was clear that Alan didn't understand a word of what they were saying.

"What... Teacher died?" asked Allen.

"I'm sorry Alan, but the teacher's affairs have kept me awake lately" Speaking of this, Crete felt a dry throat again, and couldn't help but drink the wine in the glass in front of him.

Seeing that Crete had been silent, Dolan explained to Alan sullenly on the side: " It was the old mage named Carbensis, who gave the book and a feather to Crete before he died, saying that it was for Crete to find the fifth main god and give him the feather, I began to think that this was Carbensis's crazy words, after all, many people thought he was an out-and-out old madman, but Crete insisted that Carbforth was serious, and said that Carbpensis brought him and Lilia to the future world, and saw with his own eyes that the fifth main god blocked the attack of the Dragon Emperor, how is this possible?"

"Kabensis?old mage?" Alan suddenly remembered the dirty old man who appeared beside him not long ago, he had been wondering if what happened that day was real, if not, how to explain the sealed light feather, if it was true, then what did Carbensis do to himself? Thinking of this, Alan was suddenly stunned, if it was true, then what Crete said could be something that really happened, Kabensis really let Crete see the future!

But he still wanted to make sure.

"Crete, can you show me that feather?" asked Allen.

Crete raised his eyes and looked at Allen, who had a serious face: "Allen, do you believe all this, the teacher said that this feather is very important to the fifth main god." ”

"I think I believe it, but I want to verify it. ”

"As long as you don't want to sell it like Dolan..." Crete hesitated for a moment, but took out the gray fluttering feather from his bosom and carefully handed it to Alan.

Looking at the feather handed in front of him, Alan was stunned for a moment.

This feather ・・・・・・ is too ordinary, the ends are sparse and messy, the roots are a little yellowish, it looks like it was plucked from the tail of a down-and-out turkey, if you really want to find anything special, it is that this feather is very soft to the touch, but just as Alan was about to pinch it with his hand, the center of his forehead suddenly stabbed like a burning sting, and then, Alan only felt that his fingers were not holding a feather, but a hot soldering iron, Alan gasped, and shook the feather away, fortunately, Lilia reacted quickly, shook off the corn and flew into the air to catch the feather, and then looked at Alan with a puzzled face。

In fact, not only Lilia, but the other three people present were also surprised.

Alan took his fingers in front of him and looked at them, there was nothing abnormal at all, except for a little oil stain on the fingertips, it was still the same as usual, but the sharp pain of being burned was real, and it was not alleviated at all!

"Alan, what's wrong with you?" Crete asked with concern as he looked at Alan's face a little pale.

"Have you all touched this feather?" asked Allen.

"Well, what's the matter, did you find anything special?"

Alan looked at his finger for a while, hesitating to tell them about the abnormality that happened to him, but finally dismissed the idea, "I think... I drank too much, it should be a delusion, I'm fine, by the way, Crete, I think, Kabencis's words, should be true." ”

"Okay・・・・・ So, we should find the fifth main god, right?" Seeing Alan say this, Dolan said: "Crete, my current idea is not to simply sell the book and feathers like before, that won't sell for much money, what I want to do is something bigger, since the fifth main god has not yet been born, I think, let's pretend to be the oracle of the fifth main god, how about it!"

"What?" except for Dolan, the rest of them were stunned.

Since this feather is very important to the Fifth Lord God, and Crete has seen the future, why don't we act as an oracle, decent, and make a fortune!" said Dolan excitedly.

"Pretending to be an envoy is blasphemy, you must know that blasphemy is punished by God, Dolan, this is not okay, we can't do that" Minos was the first to shake his head and refuse.

"Oracle, hehe, you can figure it out, Dolan, I have to say that you are getting bolder, not to mention that this in itself will not work, just a little, Dolan, have you ever seen an oracle who is only at the level of a low-level assassin?" Crete shook his head as if he had heard a funny joke, and handed Lilia a piece of roast meat full of sauce.

"Deception is against chivalry, Dolan, I think, this proposal seems to be a little..." Alan wanted to politely refuse, but for a moment he couldn't think of any compliments that could replace the word deception.

"Yes, I think this gentleman has a good idea. ”

Everyone couldn't help but feel nervous when they heard this abrupt voice, and Alan turned to look, only to see Laxa walking towards several people with a gentle smile on her face.
