I, The Dragon Overlord - Chapter 482

Danluciel heard Louie’s seemingly bland but terrifying words. Her body trembled, and she subconsciously looked at the Goddess of Love and Beauty, asking for help.

At this moment, Sune also put away her enthusiastic smile and displayed a thoughtful look, as if calculating what she should now do to obtain the maximum benefit for herself.

The battle of faith was something Sune never thought about. Now that Louie had mentioned it, she was suddenly astonished. As a powerful god who had lived for many thousands of years, Sune naturally knew how horrible this battle was. The gods fought with grudges as if their parents had been slain.

In the era of the gods, these events did happen and usually ended up becoming a divine war where one side was inevitably defeated. Those who had good luck would be able to survive while those without directly fell from the stars.

Faith was a powerful shackle for the gods. A god would need at least a million true believers to be able to maintain their status. Generally speaking, a powerful god would have more than a million and a half believers.

If there were too few believers, it would be dangerous for the gods. Sometimes, it wouldn’t just be a drop in levels, and may even directly cause their end.

As a result, the gods had an unwritten rule. It was a rule that gods could never personally deal with the believers of other gods. If the believer offended a different god, then no one would question it if the god killed that believer hundreds of thousands of times, as this was a matter of a God’s dignity. But if true gods were to carry out a massacre, they would become an enemy of all the gods, unless one was the god among gods.

So now, the Goddess of Love and Beauty felt a predicament. With Danluciel’s strength, it was impossible for her to go against Louie. Once Danluciel ascended, then Louie would already be a mid-tier god.

If the two clashed Danluciel would certainly lose and even die. To save Danluciel, Sune needed to intervene.

Moreover, Sune could not decline to help because she was the main god. If she as the main god did not help a subordinate god in danger, then her other subordinate gods would feel disappointed in her, resulting in a crack in her divine system.

Sune was not afraid of Louie. No matter what was said, she was still an ancient god. Even if she was placed at a disadvantage, Louie would have a hard time making her completely fall, but many would definitely be involved. For example, who would the Silver Moon Goddess side with? Although she had saved the Silver Moon Goddess once, it was already a matter from many thousands of years ago.

Gods were creatures of interest. If Selune were to choose, she would choose her own child, as well as Louie who had huge potential because those were to her biggest advantage. On the other hand, the Silver Moon Goddess was the Goddess of Love and Beauty’s greatest ally. If she lost her ally, she might have to face her other enemies alone.

Sune also had a lot of enemies. The God of War was one of them. His doctrine was a complete contradiction to her pursuit of beauty and love, resulting in the two having a poor relationship. The Mother Earth Goddess was too simple which was the opposite of Sune’s wasteful and luxurious habits. This too caused a yet unresolved dispute. The Goddess of the Morning Sun is strict and disciplined which was inconsistent with the Goddess of Love and Beauty’s chaotic nature. Although there was no struggle between the two, they were absolutely not friends.

It could be said that other than Selune, the Goddess of Love and beauty did not have any one that could be called a powerful ally.

In order not to offend Louie, she would have to give up on this future god who had a great chance of becoming a mid-tier god. Sune couldn’t do this easily. If what happened here was found out by other gods, her reputation would be smeared, showing that she might be afraid of Louie. As an ancient goddess who still possessed vitality and power, Sune puts importance on reputation. It could be said that the battle between gods is also a battle of reputation.

At the moment, Sune was stuck between a rock and a hard place. The atmosphere in the pavilion changed dramatically. Lara had regained her strength and stood by Selune’s side, while Selune remained expressionless like the bright moon as if she didn’t care about the current situation.

Even the Goddess of Joy Leila had stopped dancing. Her eyes looked at Sune worriedly, and her heart secretly complained about Danluciel. If not for the arrival of this demigod, things would not have turned out like this. The happy time had instantly turned heavy, which made this god who pursued happiness to be extremely unhappy.

Leila did not blame Louie, because true gods would never equate other weak beings with themselves.

Danluciel’s fear was even greater. She looked at Sune with expectation. She knew that if the Goddess of Love and Beauty gave up on her, then her life would probably have to end here.

Although Louie was just an incarnation, a true god’s incarnation was still a true god. Killing a demigod would not require much effort. Even if Danluciel was strong, she could do nothing in front of a true god but delay the inevitable.

The atmosphere became heavier as if the conflict was on the brink of breaking out. As Danluciel began to feel dizzy at the heavy atmosphere, Louie suddenly smiled and spoke, “Your Highness Sune, might I make a request.”

The sudden voice temporarily broke the heavy atmosphere. Danluciel noticed that she was covered in cold sweat and did not dare wipe herself as she nervously waited for Louie’s next words.

“I wonder what your request is, Your Highness Louie.”

Sune once again overflowed with love and enthusiasm as she smiled. The gods would always respect each other before completely falling out.

“I have thought of the best way to solve the current problem. Since Lady Danluciel has a great overlap with me in terms of believers, why not let Lady Danluciel be sheltered by me.”

As his words fell, Sune frowned slightly and even felt a hint of anger.

Louie might be saying shelter, but his request was to let Danluciel become his subordinate god in the future. This was simply taking food from the mouth of a tiger as Danluciel clearly already belonged to the Goddess of Love and Beauty.

At this moment, Denluciel was regretting. If she had known that Louie would not try to take the divine authority of wealth, she would not have come to the Temple of Brightwater to ask Sune for asylum but would have gone to Dragonblight to seek Louie’s help.

She knew that it was useless to regret. She knew that no matter how Louie and Sune fought, a demigod like her was just a commodity.

As a demigod, she had never been so stifled.
