Dear Broom Knight

#587 - The fluctuating river of emotions

Persephone made the decision very freely. Anyway, whether she could hold on until the River Styx arrived and be awakened by the awakened father and sons… If divine power returned to her, it would naturally be very easy… It all depended on Hermes's efforts.

The result of having bad friends is like this.

But Hermes was already used to doting on Persephone, and he could only work hard to help her, who had become even more willful because of losing her mother… Demeter, the goddess of agriculture, was too deeply bound to the earth.

Although it wasn't to the point of having no vitality at all, it was impossible for them to escape the earth directly like they did.

Even if she followed behind them to leave, she was still dragged back by those faint chains.

It just required floating in the lowest level of the astral realm for tens of thousands of years.

As long as Hades and the others could really become the Styx messengers of this world, then finding a way to reincarnate Demeter in this world would naturally be much easier.

Although the agricultural priesthood of this world was almost monopolized by the Earth God, it wasn't completely without opportunity.

At worst, she could be his subordinate god!

Demeter didn't have any desire for power anyway. As long as it was a world without Zeus, she would probably rather wander in the garden every day and then bless the earth according to orders… What a perfect life it would be without that donkey!

Thinking of this, Hermes couldn't help but sigh slightly… He estimated that he would have to be Almus for several hundred years.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen to form an alliance with this kind of natural plant with extremely strong vitality, capable of rebirth from even a trace of life.

The Thousand Silk Spiderweb Vine is a special plant that becomes very beautiful when it grows up and can weave colorful nets with countless fine threads. Although it's called a spiderweb, what it nets are not insects and birds, but magical animals on land.

This plant can only absorb magical power to grow, so its net is extremely tough, capable of trapping even some large magical creatures.

Even when it can't eat, it can slowly absorb magical power from the air to maintain its life with its own net… It just can't grow quickly.

The Thousand Silk Spiderweb Vine is too powerful, so powerful that even sprouting is difficult, let alone quickly absorbing the growth force that allows it to survive the winter with ease.

However, this is also a two-way choice. If even sprouting and growing is difficult, then it would be suffering for it to grow out.

Back then, the Thousand Silk Spiderweb Vine that Almus discovered in the Northland Palace Garden, it's unknown whether it had good or bad luck.

Because a large number of ordinary people would enter and exit the royal garden, a magic circle was actually used to maintain the magic energy within it at a level that only allowed ordinary plants to grow… Originally, it wasn't necessary to do this, but didn't His Majesty the King have a white dragon partner!

The nearby area where Ruthkania lived year-round couldn't possibly be unaffected.

But when the palace rebellion happened that year, this magic circle stopped for a while.

And the Thousand Silk Spiderweb Vine took advantage of this opportunity to send out a sprout… Although it only had a few small leaves.

Before it grows up, the Thousand Silk Spiderweb Vine will imitate the plants around it, but that is woven out, and even smooth and careful observation can reveal the difference.

It's just that, generally, no one would check the same kind of plants in the lawn one by one.

Except for Almus, who was a bit bored and didn't want to play palace intrigue games with those children.

He was troubled at that time because his physical talent wasn't considered excellent, and then he discovered this good thing.

Fortunately, as the Seed Goddess, Persephone, although mainly responsible for the germination of grain seeds, could also involve other plants.

Relying on a small group of divine power she gave, the little knight Almus back then was able to completely bind this plant.

Don't look at him taking advantage now, but this is a soul bond.

When he transforms back into Hermes one day, then his Thousand Silk Spiderweb Vine will naturally transform into a divine creature with him.

Fate is really an interesting thing.

Hermes suddenly remembered those seemingly boundless little things he did back then in order to obtain the prophecy of Taiji, the Goddess of Fate of Toril… He didn't know if the other party's purpose had been completed.

But he did indeed find this world according to Taiji's prophecy.

So…

Hermes calmed himself down… Why was he a bit sentimental today?

He restrained his inexplicably drifting thoughts and looked up at 'Toronto'.

Toronto the mage was looking up at the sky with a face full of reverie.

Toronto the mage slightly opened his crimson lips, with two streaks of red on his pale cheeks, clenching his fists to cheer for the scroll in the air that was still making its last bit of effort, having already manifested a phantom of a high mountain.

It's normal that no one suspected he was that mage Lowry, really.

If it were that one standing here, he would only be sarcastic… After all, he disliked both sides.

The difference between Toronto and Lowry is like Ares and Athena.

Although they both play war of legions, who would think those two are the same person?

Almus has always thought that he is a good actor, but, indeed, his kind of disguised reality sometimes can't catch up with some people's accidental performance.

For example, Toronto, who is currently immersed in his persona.

Almus will always remember who he is… So he really can't understand how someone can be immersed to the point of personality splitting.

Isn't he afraid of one day completely turning himself into Toronto?

Even if it's a god, they will be affected if they act for too long. The better ones will split out a facade, and the worse ones will turn the original self into a facade.

If he could so simply completely play another being, he wouldn't need to completely abandon everything, reincarnate, and let Hermes completely disappear in the multiverse.

Almus doesn't think Lowry wouldn't know these things, so how does the other party ensure that he won't have problems?

"Your expression is really rich."

Evelyn Costa, hanging on the branch, smiled and looked down.

Almus's eyes suddenly contracted slightly before slowly answering: "Because, it's too boring?"

Although his voice was very calm and his tone was very flat, you could still hear the question mark at the end.

Evelyn Costa nodded: "That's right, it's very boring.

Probably, only the arrival of God can make us a little interested."

Almus showed an awkward but polite smile.

The newest and fastest novels are at 69shu.com!

Evelyn Costa looked at the gentle and friendly young man with a bit of regret… Alas, their Temple of Valor really lacks such a gentle and polite natural mage!

In fact, their brave believers are really good, each with a trace of the divine power imprint of the Lord of Valor, so there's no need to worry about divine power pollution like now.

It's a pity that natural mages find it difficult to accept the Lord of Valor's philosophy.

Evelyn Costa sighed regretfully, but she was still a little unwilling and shouted loudly: "Look, courage is the ladder of human progress!"

"What are you talking about?"

Toronto asked in surprise, "No, Elder Sister Evelyn, do you know what you're doing?

This is the Storm Church!"

He could be considered bold, but he would definitely not dare to lure the other party's believers to change their faith in the Storm Lord's church!

Even if Almus is a pan-theist, that won't work!

This can't be explained clearly just by being thick-headed.

Sure enough, gods who have temples but not many ordinary believers are asking for it themselves.

"Ah, that…"

Almus, who was intercepted from responding, had just opened his mouth when a roar suddenly erupted in the sky.

The last bit of remnant page of the Lord of Knowledge's scroll suddenly exploded.

An old voice sounded in mid-air: "Knowledge is the ladder of human progress!"

Toronto and Almus couldn't help but look at Evelyn Costa.

The opposing sides in the Garden of Grass also couldn't control the urge to look at her.

That word 'only' was too subtle, like a response to Evelyn Costa.

Almus smiled awkwardly: "It seems that Ms. Evelyn Costa has a rather different status in the Temple of Valor."

It's not like anyone can get a response from the Lord of Knowledge himself just by shouting like that.

Evelyn Costa stomped her feet unhappily, causing the canopy under her feet to shake for a while: "Scroll Mountain is about to collapse, and you still have time to meddle in other people's business!"

The reason she said this was naturally because the phantom that appeared on that divine scroll just now wasn't just an image.

Even gods can't create divine power damage out of thin air.

In order not to affect himself, the Lord of Knowledge chose to let that scroll absorb the divine power accumulated by Scroll Mountain for so many years.

If the scroll hadn't been destroyed, it would have just consumed some divine power.

But if the scroll was destroyed, then Scroll Mountain, which was bound to it, would naturally collapse with it.

The Lord of Knowledge is really ruthless enough.

No one thought he would be so willing to give up.

No matter what resentment the Storm Lord had, under the circumstances that the Lord of Knowledge had paid such a huge price, he couldn't demand anything more.

"What a cruel heart!"

Evelyn Costa suddenly froze after muttering two sentences… She tilted her head and thought for a few seconds before saying in a strange tone, "Eh~ By the way, there are no ordinary people on Scroll Mountain, or within a thousand miles of Scroll Mountain!"

Probably none within ten thousand miles.

Everyone who heard her loud mutter couldn't help but think of this.

In the past, there may have been ordinary people trying to depend on the side of Scroll Mountain… Especially in those years after Scroll Mountain first appeared, but as the great scholars' control over Scroll Mountain became stronger and stronger, ordinary people also moved further and further away.

When the Lord of Knowledge summoned adventurers to crusade against the rebels of Scroll Mountain, even the quasi-scholars ran away.

Whether Scroll Mountain collapses or not doesn't really affect anyone.

Except for those guys who think they occupy all the secret passages and magic circles of Scroll Mountain, forcing the Lord of Knowledge to compromise.
