Chapter 6: Kronoa
The crowd in front of the temple was made up entirely of richly dressed nobles and clergy, not only to carry out the orders of the Immortal King strictly, but also to try to show their faces in front of the Immortal King, but unfortunately, due to the effect of cognitive hindrance magic, they did not even realize that the object of their intention to pay tribute had arrived at the scene.
The arrival of the unknown superior god was a surprise, and these big men had no time to listen to the information, so they could only quickly divide into two halves, make way for a passage to the temple, and then kneel on their knees, clasp their hands in front of them, and bow their heads in a prayer posture.
There are quite elaborate etiquette rules here, for example, the head of the family is in the front, the family is behind, the master is in the front, the subordinate is behind, the superior is in the front, and the subordinate is behind, and those who have reached a certain title and official position can be in the first column.
It wasn't long before a group of pure white vestments formed in a phalanx marched at a uniform pace appeared at the end of the passage, and in this mysterious atmosphere, only the sound of neat and clear footsteps echoed.
In the center of the much-anticipated white-clothed group, a woman with pigtails with red and blue heterochromatic pupils, a slender and tall figure like a model, and a super strong woman temperament, exudes an absolute sense of presence and walks forward - this is the god of time and space-Kronoa, the powerhouse who is tied for third in the Yuan this time.
Originally, the New Year's blessing event was led by a number of superior gods, with the intermediate and lower gods being the main force, and the three main gods would only descend to the human world with the creator god in the Brave Festival once every ten years...... The reason for the anomalous operation is clear, she is here to seek information.
One second Kronoa was still marching towards the temple in the very center of the White Cloak Group, and the next second she was already kneeling on one knee in front of Charo and bowed her head in greeting: "Greetings from a long time, Lord Charofanale." β
Although Charo and his party were the reason for her nether, due to the influence of Krom's magic, she could not detect their existence in advance, and she still saw a group of people standing in the distance with her naked eye, so she hurriedly came to greet her.
"Hmm." Charlotte responded blandly.
Kronoa stood up and comforted the white-clothed priests who were panicked by her sudden disappearance, and nodded to Krom: "Hades, long time no see. β
She naturally knew Krom's true body, but "having the same appearance as the creator god" and "having a power comparable to the creation god" did not mean that Krom was the creation god, and her allegiance was only to Charofanar, so her attitude was different.
Of course, Krom, who refused the actual domination of this world, didn't need this kind of undeserved respect, and smiled happily: "Because Kronoa is a workaholic, he spends most of his time in the three major temples of the God Realm~"
By the way, if it weren't for the fact that the God of Destiny was a lazy demon and the God of Life was a sleepy worm, she would have had to force these two to work, and she would only have to stay in her own temple.
"Somebody has to do something." Kronoa replied casually, then stared at Lyle as if he was about to shoot his target, "So, this one is ......?" β
"Do you recognize that?" Naturally, Krom could guess why the other party was in the Netherworld, and he didn't care about it.
Kronoa's gaze was still locked on Lyle's face, and he said coldly: "With this level of soul injury, I don't have the confidence to survive. β
Boundary Breaker C gives Lyle near-death damage with just the right amount of power, which is his technique, and the maximum damage that Lyle can take is a matter of his own level, and now it is the latter who is shocking Cronoa.
It can even be interpreted that with just one face, the god of time and space understands the rationality of the order issued by Xia Luo a few days ago.
"Hehe~He was in a worse situation a few months ago~" Krom added with a smile.
Lyle shrugged and introduced himself: "My name is 'Lyle', and the situation here is a bit bad now, but if you don't mind, please play with me at the Brave Festival in more than ten years~"
"Play?" Kronoa's eyes were glazed.
"'Play' with all your might...... With Charlo and Krom by her side, it's okay to be full of murderous intent~" Lyle seemed to be unable to see the other party's unhappiness, "Oh, could it be that you are the kind of domineering female president who thinks and asks others to also think that [work is a kind of happiness]?" Then you just don't participate, I don't know how Charo conveyed it, but I meant to invite at the time. β
Invitations, unlike orders, can be declined.
"Who likes to work anymore......" Kronoa retorted, and couldn't help but sneak a glance at Charlo.
The goddess of creation said without changing her face: "You can refuse." β
"Do you want to refuse?" Krom asked, blinking.
"Let me think about it......" The disgust in Kronoa's eyes diminished slightly.
"βcoercion." Ain made the assessment in a sound that was just right.
"Who did you say the dwarf winter melon maid said!" Cronoa was furious.
Ai Yin still maintained her usual calm maid style, and her face didn't move much, and her voice was thrown out: "Are there any other coercion present who are as coercive as cliffs?" β
"You're ......!" The goddess of time and space trembled with anger, if she hadn't paid attention to her image, she would have started to do it now.
Lyle asked in a low voice, "...... These two don't have a good relationship? β
Krom scratched his face and said with a wry smile: "Ahaha~ It's all old things~"
γγγγγγγ
Kronoa isn't a dumb character who can be easily affected by the agitation, but the person who taunted him was an old rival is another matter, and eventually he was driven by anger to say that he wanted to participate in the game.
The part about inquiring about information naturally ends here, and returns to today's business - the blessing of the Protoss.
Entering the temple, there were far fewer people inside, except for the clergy who actually had to work and dangled under the guise of work, there were less than a hundred people who were waiting for the gift...... All of them are dignitaries, and under the popular science of the almighty maid Ain, Lyle knew that the blessing activity was charged, and the price was not cheap, and the benefits would basically not fall on the ordinary people who had no connections.
Lyle's perception of the Protoss instantly increased by 50%, and it is naturally the most wonderful for the gods to give gifts to kind-hearted mortals, but if they can't do it, it is also acceptable to replace the 'high gifts' with 'unbalanced supply and demand'.
After completing the procedures to confirm their identity, the giver arrives at the corresponding room under the guidance of the priest and changes into the vestments that must be worn at the time of the blessing...... The robes are thin silk garments that reflect the curves of the body, which is the reason for the separation of men and women.
After changing clothes, the recipient of the gift will come to a large room and wait, calling out the number in turn to receive the blessing, and if you are unlucky enough to meet a lower god who is not very strong, it is normal to wait for several hours.
"Light, light is glorious!" As the only duchess chosen to be the object of blessing from the god of time and space, she was well aware of her situation and soon withdrew from the temple in embarrassment.
ββ¦β¦ Is this the blessing of the Protoss? Lyle, who was watching closely, pondered for a moment, raised his hand and tapped his head, "Damn, I can't use magic right now, and I can't get information at all." β
Like a mortal, he only knew that Kronoa's hand overflowed with light, enveloping the young and beautiful Duchess's body, and then it was gone.
"There's no rush yet~" Krom comforted Lyle by holding his arm, "Or let Charo give you a blessing too, so that you can experience what it feels like to be blessed?" β
ββ¦β¦ Hades! Spacetime's expression changed.
With what she knew about Charlot, it was very likely that she would bestow a high-level blessing on Lyle, who was interested in her, and she didn't want to let the dangerous outsider No. 1 have such permissions.
"Please, Uncle Ben only acknowledges Lord Rathwell's blessing." Lyle waved his hand and refused, "Besides, Charlo will eventually fight me, and then she will have to curse me and make everything in the world my enemy, or else she will release water...... I'm going to be angry. β
The creator god shook his head: "Don't worry, I have no intention of showing mercy to my subordinates. β
"If you have time, think about how to use the power of creation to fight, the vampires who flew me here are very slippery." With that, Lyle leaned in front of Kronoa, "By the way, can I ask you something?" β
