Chapter 684: Your Wife Can See But Not Touch

Purge all believers from this world.

In fact, Victor had already had the idea ten years ago.

At that time, however, his idea was not as strong as it is today.

After all, Gwen was still under his control at the time,

Whether as a carrier of the Goddess of Justice or as "Gwen", Victor has managed to balance both identities in her mind.

However, ten years have passed in the blink of an eye,

Now Gwen is uncontrollable, and justice in her heart has gradually taken her place.

And the part of "Gwen", under the shell of justice, is gradually fading out, and the first is completely gone.

In Victor's eyes, Gwen is like a time bomb that could trigger the arrival of the goddess of justice at any time.

In order to keep himself safe, Victor felt compelled to implement the plan immediately and act quickly.

The first step was to purge Gwen of the believers who had the greatest influence on Gwen.

The power of gods such as the goddess of justice is closely related to the number of their followers.

The more believers there are, the stronger the power of faith they can draw.

The reason why the Lady Justice shows great strength is not only because she is unusually compatible with Gwen,

Also because she has the largest number of followers among the gods in the world.

Truth be told, the followers of the other gods almost all dissipated after that battle of the gods.

Some died, some fled, and some even changed their faith because of the victories of other gods.

And when the gods disappeared from this world completely, the number of believers decreased dramatically.

But the Lady Justice is different.

As the last god left in this world, the fanatical believers under the goddess of justice did not let her leave with her.

He is even willing to give up his flesh and distort himself.

Therefore, in order to minimize the power of the Goddess of Justice, Victor's plan is to wipe out those believers without leaving any stone unturned.

At this point, Michaela froze in place.

She didn't come back to her senses for a moment, and her attention was completely fixed on what Victor said.

Well? What?

Victor's wife?

She knew Gwen, who had been Victor's fiancée ten years earlier.

At that time, Victor had personally sought out her because of some of her physical conditions.

Victor once said that Gwen was an oracle of the goddess of justice,

But at that time, she had no divine power in her, only a divine personality, so she seemed to have no feelings.

But why did Victor mention Gwen, could it be that her condition was even worse?

Victor looked at Michaela and spoke in a slow and deep tone:

"Gwen has transcended the limits of humanity and reached the level of a 'god'."

"I can't find any explanation other than the divine power of that goddess."

Michaela was a little surprised to hear this, but nodded approvingly.

Humans cannot cross the line to the realm of the gods.

Even an oracle like her, no matter how compatible with the gods is, can only remain in the realm of human beings.

At most, they have more divine power than ordinary believers.

As Victor described, he is a human being, but he is heading towards the realm of God.

It was as if a god had descended into the world through a human body.

However, at this time, Michaela noticed that Victor's title for Gwen had changed, and she couldn't help but ask curiously:

"You just mentioned ...... Your wife. ”

"Have you already been married to her?"

Victor nodded, not seeming to have much intention of hiding the matter.

Although he now sees Gwen as a great threat, there is no denying that they did make the wedding.

Even if the final step is not reached, Gwen is nominally his legal wife.

Seeing Victor's response, Michaela opened her mouth slightly, looking a little surprised.

In her mind, the gods usually don't come into contact with humans in order to maintain their holiness.

Especially the goddess of justice, who attaches great importance to right and wrong and shameful gods.

If Gwen was completely replaced by the Goddess of Justice, wouldn't Victor be equivalent to-

Married a wife who can see but not touch?

Michaela couldn't help but feel a little sad for Victor.

She clasped her hands to her chest, her fingers clasped tightly, the corners of her mouth drooped slightly, and she spat out words of mercy in a gentle voice:

"Mr. Victor, you are our godfather, so ......"

"If you can't take it anymore, I'll wait forever for you to change your mind."

“……”

Victor didn't know what the messenger of the goddess of fertility was thinking.

The other nuns in the church like to be touched by their abundance, and that's understandable.

After all, most of those nuns were blood clans, and they were indifferent to these intimate acts between humans.

And it is understandable that such behavior can also be exchanged for fresh blood.

However, Michaela, as bishop of the Church of Plenty, repeatedly expressed such wishes to Victor.

It's a bit beyond the realm of selfless dedication.

Perceiving Victor's silence, Michaela quickly added:

"Please don't get me wrong, honorable Godfather Victor."

"You are the only one who has been lovingly blessed by the Goddess, and you are the only one who can summon and bring the blessings of the Goddess to this vast land of Shulben."

"I am willing to dedicate myself to you, and in a way, it also means to dedicate my pure body to the Goddess."

So, is it referring to the incident in which he used Vega's magic to defeat Laurion with the divine power of Inaho?

That time, he did summon the remnant of the Goddess of Abundance, but it was just a virtual shadow of a condensed wisp of divine power.

And if she really wants to say that, the object of her dedication should be Vega.

After all, he alone couldn't support such powerful magic.

So, with a hint of sarcasm, Victor asked softly:

"If the goddess really came, would you still do it like now?"

"This ......"

Victor's words silenced Michaela for a moment.

It is undeniable that Michaela is no longer the fanaticism of the past,

As Victor said, there is no goddess, it is important to her.

She regards the future advent of the goddess as a natural fate, rather than an event that intervenes in the direction of fate with her own hands.

If the goddess does return in the near future, it is fate.

Even if they don't return, that's destiny.

However, whether or not the goddess will return to earth, it will not change Michaela's belief in the goddess of abundance.

That's exactly what Victor is saying so far.

If the goddess returns, will she be dedicated to the goddess or Victor?

Michaela stood still, and after a brief silence, she stammered, unable to refute.

Victor's words seemed to short-circuit her mind.

"It seems that as an oracle, your faith in God is not strong enough."

Victor said this, smiling softly.

Victor understands Michaela's behavior of often wanting to dedicate herself.

As long as the situation is clearly communicated to her, this confusion can be solved.

Therefore, Victor asks Michaela first whether her beliefs are gods or those of Victor himself.

After all, if the other party chooses to be loyal to the goddess.

Regardless of whether the gods can return to the human world or not, as a bishop, she should keep her words true to her deeds.

But if she insisted on keeping this thought, how could she, who was supposed to dedicate herself to the gods, dedicate herself to Victor when the gods came?

Hearing Victor's words, Michaela fell into deep thought,

She seemed to have something to say, but Victor took the lead and interrupted her thoughts:

"Now, let's get down to business."

"Those believers must have tried to disturb your church."

Hearing the mention of the believers, Michaela adjusted her expression slightly and nodded her head in acknowledgment.

It wasn't just harassment, it was more like a first-in-class assault on their church.

It seems that Michaela had tried to help Gwen get out of that state of justice without divine power in order to assist Victor.

Since then, Viktor has warned her to pay special attention to the followers of the Goddess of Justice,

The Church of Fertility is likely to be targeted by that group of things.

As a result, as Victor explains, there was a time when the Church of Fertility welcomed a group of people who claimed to be believers in the gods.

They expressed their desire to join the Church of Plenty.

If it weren't for Michaela remembering Victor's warning and sensitively sensing the impurity of these people's intentions,

It is highly likely that the Church of Fertility will be infiltrated by those believers in silence.

The appearance of these believers also made Michaela realize.

Her attempts to help Victor heal Gwen were not allowed by them.

This is further proof that the group of believers was absolutely aware of Gwen's changes.

So, she decided not to hide it anymore, but to confess all the details she knew to Victor.

"The believers came to me."

"They claim to help me recall the Goddess and bring back the Goddess of Plenty."

Hearing this, Victor's brow furrowed slightly, showing obvious interest in Michaela's words.

"You mean, they claim to have the power to bring the gods back?"

Michaela did not give an affirmative response, but said calmly:

"I'm not sure if they actually have that ability, maybe it's just a tactic they are trying to hack into the church."

"In short, I always remember your teachings and rejected their proposals."

As soon as the words fell, Victor was immersed in deep thought.

I see.

It seems that the development of the timeline has deviated as he expected.
