Chapter 568: The God of Agriculture
Kira didn't have much thought about this special party that they rarely attended, but was more interested in the god they worshipped.
"I say, Miss Reporter?"
"Yes! Just call me Zena! ”
Oh, so your name is Zena......
Kira nodded and asked, "Miss Zena, which 'god' are you sacrificing at this festival?" ”
"Gods?"
Zena was stunned for a moment, and then explained, "This festival is called the 'Agricultural Time Festival', and of course it is the god of agriculture!" ”
】
"Saturnalia? In the ancient legends of this world, there are still such types of gods? ”
In this world, Kira knew of the god of fire, the god of heaven, the god of thunder, the god of time, the god of life and death, and the goddess of ice and snow, but she had never heard of the god of agriculture.
"According to the legend of the town, the god of agriculture is the god in charge of agriculture, and she controls the harvest of the farmland, so we need to offer sacrifices, serve wine, and hold banquets to her every year to ensure a good harvest the next year."
"But some people say she's actually a god who knows the weather."
Mastering the weather? Could it be the child of the weather? Is there a sunny girl who can come out of the sun with a prayer or something?
After a flash in her mind in a movie in her memory, Kira shook her head and said, "It's relatively abstract to be in charge of agriculture, and the harvest of the farmland depends on the weather, so there's nothing wrong with that." ”
In fact, Kira can understand this, according to his knowledge of some myths and legends, the god of agriculture is the child of the gods, and her ability is to change the climate of a place in order to achieve a good harvest.
"What's the name of this 'Saturnalia'?"
"It seems to be called...... Saturnus? ”
Kira pursed her lips and didn't answer, the name seemed familiar.
If you think about it carefully, the Western Continent even has the god of time, Kuronos, and it is not strange that a god of agriculture Satunus has appeared, but I don't know if they have anything to do with each other.
It is not once or twice that Mashima named the characters in this work after the ancient Greek gods, such as the vampire Haiyin Berrion of the 'Holy Ten Elders', whose name is derived from the Greek myth of Cyperion in the Twelve Titans, the 'Celestial' Serena and the 'Moon Dragon' Selene, whose names are also derived from Selene, the daughter of Hyperion, and the 'God of Time' Koronos, whose name comes from the Greek mythological Orpheus primitive god Kronos.
All three of the above are derived from the ancient Greek god lineage.
According to Kira's previous life, due to the similar pronunciation and writing, this primordial god Kronos is often confused with Kronos, who is also an ancient Greek god, and Kronos is confused with the ancient Roman god of agriculture, Saturnus, that is, some legends of Kronus are stuffed into the legend of Saturnus.
Now these names are placed in the same worldview, and they are all legendary gods, and Kira does not believe that there is no connection between them.
"But...... Time and agriculture are too far-fetched to catch up, and it shouldn't be so coincidental! ”
According to Timaria, Koulonus was the deity of Mildian, who was enshrined in the ancient capital of time, and this Saturnus was also a deity enshrined, and the two probably belonged to the same era. It's just that the former has a descendant who can receive her soul, and the latter......
Kira glanced at the singing, dancing, flushed, and wide-open eyes in front of her...... The people at the banquet felt that the god of agriculture had been shattered into powder, and it was also lifted by a tractor that happened to pass by.
"There is no fear of the gods or the pursuit of powerful magic left in the hearts of this group of people, they only have food, drink and merry in their eyes, and their minds only think about how to coax the handsome guys and beauties they fancy home to watch the cats."
"Already...... It's hopeless......"
Not to mention a descendant who receives the soul of the Saturnalia, there is not even a person who can use the relevant magic even a little!
Kira was disappointed, very disappointed!
This ancient ritual is supposed to be accompanied by a powerful and scheming mastermind, such as an evil god who has lived for hundreds of thousands of years, lurking under the undercurrent, taking advantage of human greed and darkness, and hatching one terrible plan after another, in an attempt to resurrect the ruling world or destroy humanity at a suitable time.
Unfortunately, this plan that has been planned by the mastermind for hundreds of thousands of years was discovered and uncovered by the people of fate who happened to pass by, that is, himself, and after a battle, the evil god was completely destroyed or sealed forever by the righteous, kind and great self.
During this period, he will also get acquainted with a kind and gentle heroine, or a vase with big breasts and no brains who will only drag his feet, and fall in love with her for a short time, and this love will become the final force to defeat the evil god.
And at the end of the story, there are no more than two endings: one is that small love can't defeat big love, the so-called love between children and daughters is destined to leave a person who belongs to the whole world, and he will leave in order to eradicate the evil in the world, and the heroine will lead the people in the town here to continue to live and take on the responsibility of guarding the seal; The second is the tragic ending, the heroine died in the battle, and she chose to continue to wander to fight against other evil gods or dark forces.
The story is old-fashioned but classic, at least you can make a movie, draw a chapter, or write a short story, and the result? Nothing happens!
For a moment, the thought of "since there is no villain, why don't I be the villain" suddenly popped up in Kira's heart, and this idea became heavier and heavier.
"What's not saved?"
Kira's sigh caught Zena's attention, and she didn't know why the man's mood suddenly became so low, as if something important had been lost.
Could it be that he just had something unspeakable with those big sisters who looked like they were going to eat people......
Just as the girl was thinking, Kira's voice appeared in her ears again: "Miss Zena, does this god of agriculture have any magic handed down?" ”
"Huh?? Why do you suddenly ask this? "The girl Zena looked at Kira curiously, her eyes blinking, and she looked innocent and ignorant, very similar to the legendary 'eyes full of wisdom'.
Why? Kira's idea is simple: the god of fire, the god of heaven, the god of thunder, and the god of ice and snow have left the god-destroying magic, the god of time has left the magic to receive her soul, and the god of life also has a curse...... In this way, there is no reason why Saturnalia did not leave a backhand!
"It's just curiosity! Truth be told, I'm a magician, so I'm curious about it! ”
"I see!
Magician ......"
Zena looked at Kira from top to bottom again, and indeed found that he did have a super-escaped temperament, which looked mysterious and charming under the interplay of fire and moonlight, and people couldn't help but want to find out.
Seeing that the other party didn't answer for a long time, and even began to look at himself in a daze, Kira suddenly wondered: "Miss Zena? ”
What's the matter with this girl? Could it be that there is something amazing magical inheritance that is true?!
Kira's eyes suddenly lit up, and she couldn't help but feel cool in her heart: Ancient magic, it must be very strong!
Will it be a type of reception? What can you do after receiving the god of saturn?
If it has to do with agriculture, it shouldn't just control the growth of crops, right? Since there is a local legend that the god of agriculture can control the climate, the magic left behind may be to control the weather, rain, wind, thunder, cold and heat, etc., which is quite strong when you think about it.
In addition to the weather, there may also be the ability to control plants.
In the wizarding world, it is not uncommon for magicians to master the magic of controlling plants, and Doryel, one of Lebby's two suitors, uses seed magic, and by manipulating the plants grown from seeds, he is the weakest group of such magicians; And Volod is undoubtedly one of the strongest magicians in this area, after all, as a Holy Ten, his strength is obvious to all.
Kira's gaze fell on the surrounding crowd again, if there was a magician in this place who could receive the soul of Saturnalia, then the other party's control in this area was likely to directly surpass Volod.
Such a person, even if his strength is not at the shield level, he is also a heavenly king!
