Chapter 46 I understand
This matter is actually very complicated, far from as simple as Lord Luna said.
No matter how noble the reason is, from the results, Shuer's behavior is very serious.
Without any prior agreement, he changed the process of the ceremony without authorization, which ultimately led to the destruction of the Goddess whom he believed in serving. As a member of the world who twisted the void, perhaps no one would blame him because he successfully saved the ceremony, but as a priest, he was absolutely unqualified and had even lost the qualification of a priest. He did not put the safety of the gods first and did not regard the gods as supreme faith. Therefore, even if the priests who did this behavior only did this behavior in their dreams, it would be difficult for them to continue to serve in the church.
Because in his subconscious mind, his faith has been shaken and the connection with the gods is no longer stable. Even if the gods do not intend to deprive him of the priesthood, due to the unstable connection and the divine power cannot be transmitted, it is impossible for him to smoothly use the power of the gods to cast divine magic. A priest who has lost his magic has no other way out except leaving the church.
This is the law of the world. It is not transferred by himself or even the will of the gods. Even the gods cannot change it. A few years ago, Shuer did not understand this principle and did not admit that he had already had a firm belief. Instead, he naively believed that this was just a transaction of power. For this reason, the goddess secretly mocked him. Of course, now he understands, and he knows that he has not lost the ability to use divine arts because of this.
It's not surprising at all, because the final result is also the choice of Lord Luna in her dream.
Indeed, he just didn't put the safety of the goddess first. When he found out that the goddess did not leave in time for the evacuation of the remaining mortals and gods, he actually had the opportunity to terminate the behavior of cutting off the connection. Although the price was to repeat the previous failures and the whole world was destroyed with the failure of the ritual, that was another thing. At least from the moment, he successfully protected the safety of the goddess. However, he did not do so, but watched his faith disappear before his eyes.
Sin is unforgivable, however, this is Lord Luna's own decision, and he chose to sacrifice himself in order to protect mortals. In this way, the nature of the matter of Sul's failure to terminate his actions in time has changed, becoming following the will of the gods, and would rather bear deep sins than satisfy the wishes and requirements of the gods. Therefore, the blasphemer became a saint, and the connection between the two parties was not only not weakened, but even strengthened a lot.
But sin is still sin after all, especially the accusation of himself deep in his heart will not be weakened. Therefore, the first thing Shuer did after waking up was to come back to apologize to the goddess.
"Are you really apologizing?" The serious tone faded, and Lord Luna asked jokingly, "You have known the result from the beginning. You know, I can't punish you for this matter, at most I blame you for not reporting to me in advance."
Shuer didn't answer, but just used a teacup to block his eyes and make it impossible for you to not see me, so I can't see you anymore.
"But, the guilt in your heart is very heavy, not only for me, but also for the world destroyed in dreams dozens of times, and... for those girls, you will not be able to bear such a huge pressure, so..." The goddess tilted her head, with a bit of playfulness in her voice. Shure could even imagine her expression when she was blinking her teasingly, "You are here to act coquettishly with me."
"Puff", it really spurted out. Shuer never dreamed that he would be involved with such an evaluation. He couldn't help but sprayed a mouthful of tea on the ground, and couldn't help but choke and cough.
"Well, it seems that I have called it." Gods are omniscient. They can often look directly at people's hearts regardless of appearance. "I take back what I said just now. You don't regard me as a spiritual belief. The fact is the opposite, haha, I'm very happy about it."
But I was not happy at all. Shuer was wiping his face in a hurry, trying to cover up the embarrassment on his face. Hell, it was so shameful. Will I be the one who acted coquettishly for you? I am a person who has always held the power of life and death and has long abandoned my personal feelings. I only care about myself, and no one else cares. How could I feel guilty about this? It is even more impossible to act coquettishly for you. Don't tell jokes anymore, Goddess.
Unfortunately, under this communication method, the goddess could not hear the voice of her apostle. Of course, even if she heard it, she could pretend not to hear it. There was no way. Since she encountered such an unconscious god, Shur could only explain with a bitter face: "That, actually, I came to see you mainly for that, uh, I have other purposes?"
"Oh? Not just to act coquettish?" As if he had awakened some strange hobby, or finally found a chance to fight back and didn't want to miss it. Lord Luna deliberately repeated the description that made Shuer feel deeply ashamed, and said in a light voice, "Then what is your purpose?"
"It's the main purpose! Forget it..." After completely giving up the struggle, Shuer said helplessly, "At the subsequent report meeting, I would like to ask you to help me convince the gods."
"People them to give up Pavatiga in advance?"
"Yes." Shur nodded, "The Holy Spirits are also nostalgic. Before they have no choice, everyone does not want to give up the world they were born. It is not easy to let everyone give up Pavatiga, but in reality, there is no choice but to give up."
"After you give up Pavatiga, you can successfully complete the ceremony? This is the key to making the decision."
"It's basically certain."
"Oh?" asked the goddess with interest, "After my body was destroyed, the ceremony finally succeeded?"
"No, it failed in the end."
"Um?"
"But this failure was at the last moment of the ceremony." Shur sighed and shook his head, "Because Pavatiga was forcibly separated, although he barely maintained the balance of energy at that time, he could not hold it at the end of the ceremony. In the end, the magic array system wanted to return the concentrated existence to each world and let the various worlds separate again. However, since some of the existence from Pavatiga had been absorbed, the target for return could not be found, so he fell down at the last step before the end."
"I understand." Shur found that Lord Luna's attitude was a little strange, as if he was troubled by something, and hesitated for a while before asking, "In other words, you did not see the success of the ceremony with your own eyes, you just stayed in theory."
"Yes, but this is the closest theory to actuality."
"But you still chose to wake up." The goddess asked with some advice, "Can you tell me why?"
"I..." Xiuer opened his mouth and suddenly realized that he could not answer this question.
