Chapter 363: The Sorrow of the High King

Late at night.

Leon remained in the garden of the House of Lords.

The place has been re-cleaned and looks empty, with only a few statues still preserved.

Leon stood in front of a three-meter-tall stone statue and looked up.

This is both a statue of Kavala and a street lamp in the garden of the House of Nobles, all of which are Kavala carrying a lamp to light forward.

The stone statue of Kavala, standing on a stone platform more than one meter high, is almost as tall as a person, and the craftsmanship is exquisite and lifelike.

"Your Majesty, can I talk to you? You've been watching me, right? ”

Leon brought the ring to his mouth and asked softly.

"What are you going to talk about? Do you think you've won? You've only got the Lion City temporarily, but I'm still going to kill you in the end......"

Kavala replied immediately, in a calm and nonchalant tone.

It seems that he has indeed been keeping an eye on Leon.

"No, I just wanted to ask, why did you create a snake worship? And why deliberately spread the Red Death? The kingdom of Pande was founded by your own hands, and the people of the entire continent were once your people...... Most of the Pande royal heirs died of the Red Death, and those are your own children and grandchildren - don't you care about them at all? ”

Leon was really curious to know why.

After a moment of silence, Kavala's voice rang out: "Of course I care...... This is my Pande! This is the land I have worked so hard to build! This is a country that I built at the expense of countless comrades......"

"But that's what I do because I care...... And the Red Death wasn't the ...... I transmitted."

"Boy, I can tell you everything I've been through......"

"In order to seal the gloomy eye, I conquered the continent, and as a result, my comrades died on the battlefield one by one......"

"In order to destroy those damned codex, my wife died on the expedition, and my last brothers died on the expedition...... My whole life has been fighting for the will of the goddess, and I have never stopped! ”

"At that time I was at the mercy of others and gave everything for the will of the goddess...... But it wasn't until I was old that I realized that I had never obeyed my own will in my life! …… I'm nothing more than a pawn in the hands of Yunomia! ”

"I conquered the continent and destroyed most of the legal codes, making Yunomia the only lord god in the entire continent who could descend into the world...... But I lost everything! ”

"My wife, my friends, my soldiers, my people...... And myself! ”

"But what did Yunomia give?"

She only gave a few painless compliments, and then said that God was not supposed to exist in the first place...... She doesn't even want me to live too long! ”

"At the time I didn't know why...... After completing the expedition to the Bacchus Continent, the only thing I wanted at that time was to enjoy a few more days of peace in my old age, and I had had enough of it for decades of continuous warfare! ”

"But, even in my old age, Yunomia asked me to launch an expedition to the continent of Buckley......"

"I was seventy-six years old...... It's been fifty-five years of continuous fighting! Leon, can you understand how I felt at that time? Hahaha......"

Kavala laughed miserably as she spoke.

"I can really understand your feelings...... It's true. But I don't understand what you're doing......"

Leon sighed.

Yunomia wants to put an end to the chaos caused by the gods, so she has been driving Kavala on a constant expedition. In order to destroy all the laws of God, it is necessary to completely defeat all the nations and peoples of the whole world......

But for more than 50 years, I haven't let people take a vacation......

Even a mule can't do that! No matter how black-hearted the capitalist is, he will have to cry when he sees it......

However, Kavala was also really stupid at that time......

"Boy, if it were you, what would you do in that situation? A god whom you devout have asked you to do these things, and it is for the safety of all mankind......"

Probably not expecting Leon to say that he understood himself, Kavala paused and asked Leon.

"Me? I don't think I would have been able to fight for 50 years...... If you want to destroy all the legal codes, you don't have to use direct conquest - why not use a high bounty to induce people to get them back? ”

Li Ang smiled: "As the supreme king of the Pande Continent, you can afford any reward...... Why do we have to fight? Again...... If Younomia calls you, can't you call others? There are so many people in the whole continent, who told you to do this yourself? ”

Kavala was silent.

After a long silence, just when Leon thought that Kavala would not reply, he heard Kavala let out a faint sigh.

"Whew...... You're right. But at that time, I was just a warrior who devoutly worshipped the goddess of order. The goddess asked me to conquer, and I led my troops to conquer...... And the God's code will erode people's souls, and only me and the Noldor Elves were unaffected at that time, but the Noldor Elves were reluctant to leave the Pander continent to fight overseas, and I never thought of ...... other way at that time."

Looking at it this way, Kavala's mind was not very flexible at that time......

It is also true that people with flexible brains are usually not very religious......

"You don't want to be at the mercy of the goddess anymore, so you brought back Azi Dahaka from the island of Ungdalian? You wanted to kill the goddess at that time? ”

Leon did not laugh at Kavala, who became the supreme king by conquering the continent by force, so he naturally had inertial thinking.

At that time, Kavala probably only had the glory of the goddess and the glory of the battlefield in his mind, and it was normal to only think about direct conquest when encountering things. Including after being dissatisfied with the goddess, he probably thought of a head-on confrontation.

It is not surprising that, regardless of the era, sects have indeed tried to destroy other faiths by direct conquest by force.

Even in modern society, there are many people who think in this way – when they talk about the topic of nation-to-nation, they all think of war and conquest, of troops and equipment, or who is good and who is bad, who is good and who is evil......

However, Kavala is certainly not such a person now.

Leon didn't believe that a man who had been a high priest of the Serpent Sect for decades would be so simple.

"I wasn't going to deal with the goddess at that time...... Ha...... How do people confront God? And I didn't even know at that time that people could become gods...... I just wanted to live on my own terms, that's all. ”

Kavala smiled self-deprecatingly: "Actually, at that time, I really just wanted to live a few more years, I just wanted to see more of the country I had built and spend more time with my grandson, really." After asking a lot of people, I started to build my own temple and statues, which I said would lead to immortality......"

"At that time you should have been more prestigious than all the gods, and there should have been many people who believed in you...... What you get through the temple should be more than just immortality. ”

Leon looked up at the statue of Kavala again, and each statue of Kavala, whether riding a horse or not, no matter what action he was doing, was the image of a knight wearing a sword and shield and wearing battle armor.

"That's right, I didn't expect that I would be able to get a lot of faith in just a few years, and I would become a god! But it was precisely because I became a god that I realized that I had made a big mistake......"

Kavala continued in a low voice: "At that time my body was still alive! I became a god while I was alive! But I can't use any magic at all, because my body can ban demons! ”

"Yunomia also discovered that I had become a new god...... She told me the story of the gods and asked me to set sail immediately to Buckley to destroy the last two Codexes. Since I couldn't use the magic arts, she didn't do anything to me. But she didn't allow me to stay in Pander anymore, and warned me that if I returned to the continent, she would come and kill me herself! ”

"I was eighty-one years old at the time. But I can still only leave Pander with the expeditionary force, a knight god who can't use magic skills, and there is no difference between an ordinary old man......"

"But I didn't go to Barkley, I went to the Wengdarion continent. Originally, I just wanted to go to the ice field that had been destroyed by the magical storm, and try to find a way to use magic or magic there, avoiding Yunomia's surveillance...... There, I discovered an underground ruin left behind by the Sindari Elves. ”

"It was a large building buried deep in the ground, not destroyed, but completely frozen."

"There was the corpse of an elven army inside, thousands of corpses, mostly Noldor, and all of them drained of blood. Only one Sindari Elf was unscathed, but also frozen in ice...... There is also a large, completely sealed metal cellar with winged serpentine markings on the door. ”

Out of curiosity, I opened the door to that cellar...... It was covered in frozen blood, and there was a humanoid monster with snake scales all over...... And, after the thaw, that monster came to life! It has great fighting power, but it does not have any intelligence, and will only obey the orders of the first person it sees, like a newly hatched chicken and duck. ”

"Ever since that monster came back to life, I realized that I had lost the ability to gain faith...... It's not because of my forbidden constitution, it's because of the monster - it can stop anything related to magic or magic! ”

"Soon after, my expeditionary force was all dead...... Died of the Red Death. The whole body ulcers, the skin falls off, and when you die, you feel like a fallen. ”

"I myself died at that time. But I didn't die of the Red Death, but because I lost the blessing of my faith, my body weakened, and I froze to death in the ruins of the ice fields...... After all, I was eighty-three years old at the time. ”

"But my soul didn't die, but I didn't know how long I could live as a spirit at that time, and I had to have a body to sail out of the Wingdarion continent......"

"You're a very smart man, you should already know everything...... The monster in the box was Azz Dahaca, the only body I could use at the time - the others were dead and frozen in ice, and only Azi Dahaka could move. ”

At this point, Kavala stopped.

After a pause, he asked Leon, "Now, I'll ask you again...... What would you do if it were you? ”

Leon was silent for a while, to be honest, Kavala is indeed quite sad.

He has been used by the devout goddess of order for a lifetime, and he has never been able to enjoy a lifetime of fighting.

After using it, he became a god because he was unwilling to die of old age, but he was expelled from the continent because of this, and he could not return to the country he founded, and he could not even see his children and grandchildren.

In the end, the old man's body froze to death in the uninhabited ice field, surrounded only by a large mass of frozen corpses and a monster created by the Sindari elves - and only that monster could move, the only shell that Kavala's spirit could use.

"So, you use the body of Azi Dahaka...... Went to the Bacchus continent ......"

Leon sighed, otherwise what else could he do?

Kavala just wanted to live, it was instinct.

"Haha...... No one is nobler than the other...... Yes, I took possession of the body of Azi Dahakaβ€”it had no spirit at all, because it was not of this world, it was really just a humanoid weapon made by the Gens of Sindari. ”

"I took the corpses of those elves, stuck the cables and masts with the corpses, and drove the warship to the continent of Bacchus alone...... I'm alone, and I can't get the boat back to Pande. ”

"And my expeditionary force all died of the Red Death, and I don't dare to go back to Pander directly, I don't want my kingdom to be infected with the Red Death, I really don't want to."

"But I didn't expect that Aziz Dahaka would gradually weaken after leaving the blood in that box...... It is a personal puppet that must constantly supply mana with the blood of the Noldor Elves, or it will die soon! ”

"But none of the Noldor elven corpses I brought back have any blood, and there is no blood supplement for the elves on the Bacchus continent...... And the only Sindari elf, that is, Maltis, she did not actually die, she woke up after the ice was lifted. But her soul was crippled, she was not controlled at all, she would only obey simple orders to a limited extent, and she had turned those elven soldiers into undead as soon as she woke up......"

"But I still can't use magic because Azi Dahaka's body is more capable of forbidding demons......"

"I had no choice but to try to establish a snake worship cult on the continent of Bacchus, and made Azi Dahaka a god...... Because my old body had lived for two more years after receiving my faith, I wanted to use my faith to keep this body alive. ”

"With my previous experience, I have once again succeeded in creating a god, and the spirit of Azi Dahaka is myself, and I can indeed get all the faith...... But it didn't work, Azi Dahaka's body continued to weaken......"

"I didn't know that the body would be free when I died, I just wanted to live, even if it was with the ugly body of Azi Dahaka...... So I had no other way......"

"I know there's a place where there's a lot of Noldor elven blood...... It was to suppress the pool of blood created by the Spooky Eye, you should have discovered it, right? ”

"So I have to go back to the Pander continent."

"I infiltrated the blood pool of the House of Nobles and solved the problem of survival......"

"I even used that body to enter the Temple of Order and find Yunomia's Codexβ€”her own Codex was not destroyed...... But I ruined it. And I fused that code into something else......"

Kavala probably said he was tired, and his voice was getting quieter.

"You made it into a ring? Is that the one I have? No wonder the ring got a response from Yunomia...... So, where did the griffin in the ring come from? ”

Leon had realized what the Codex had become to be fused.

"Haha...... Didn't you deal with another Agraeme? In addition to occupying the human body, this abyssal spirit can only reside in the legal code...... You can't even think of the griffon's origin? ”

Kavala burst out laughing.
