On the seventh day after the messenger came, there happened to be a wedding feast in the town.

The envoy also went to the banquet.

At the banquet, children served wine and invited envoys to taste it.

The messenger asked him: Why is it water?

The child said: They have no more wine.

The messenger looked at the light in the sky and realized that it was a false god doing evil, and he felt sad in his heart.

Then He sent down His abundant grace and gave them good wine to polish their eyes and reveal the glory of God.

Royal of Essa saw it and thought it was a gift from the false god. He wanted to praise the false god for his kindness and recite the name of the false god.

But a voice came from heaven, My lost people, you have been deceived. False gods have blinded your minds so that you cannot see the truth.

Royal asked God for the truth again.

God said that this light is false. The world was born from darkness and will eventually be dark. If you are addicted to this false light, you will eventually die, like the fish in the stagnant water.

Royal fell to the ground and begged God for forgiveness.

God said, your sins are forgiven.

Mistakes made due to ignorance can be forgiven.

Anyone who maliciously blasphemes against God will never be forgiven.

Royal asked again the identity of the messenger.

God said that he was born with my will and came with the mission of saving all living beings. He will lead my people to the road of peace and allow them to be forgiven for their sins.

Royal went out, spoke many words, and spread the word, so that the door of the messenger's residence was crowded with lost believers, who just wanted to listen to his sermon and ask him to forgive their sins.

"New Chapter of Dark Scripture"

…………

This step of Allen's plan went quite smoothly.

Perhaps it is because, during the recent period, the crops in Oak Town have been severely affected by the scorching sun overhead;

Or maybe it's because, although the emperor of the Essa Empire built temples to the Sun God, collected taxes everywhere, and recruited young men, the Sun God never performed any miracles, as if he didn't even bother to pay attention to these boring little things in the world.

When he told Mayor Royal that "the age of the sun is about to end" in a majestic tone, the other party's belief was somewhat shaken.

Although Mayor Royal was indeed a devout believer in the past.

However, when a real "miracle" happens in front of you, no matter how devout a believer is, your heart will be shaken.

Is there really a greater being behind this sun god?

And the sun god is just an inconspicuous one among his many faces? The authority in charge of the sun is only an insignificant one among his many powers?

Royal was silent, feeling that his heart was filled with waves, and he could not calm down for a long time.

With an uneasy mood, he asked tremblingly: "Then... is that Mr. Allen, who has great supernatural powers, the envoy sent by you? Because I have seen too... an oracle before... it predicted that...

, a messenger will come to the world to save the world from the sea of ​​fire..."

Faced with that terrifying momentum, Mayor Royal finally did not dare to mention the name of the Sun God again.

The voice was silent for a moment.

In this short, heart-stopping silence, Mayor Royal's heart was in his throat, thinking that he had offended this great being, and was afraid of inflicting real divine punishment.

The people of the Sun Temple once said that those who blaspheme the gods will be burned by fire after death.

Since the God of Darkness who performs miracles is a greater, more eternal and transcendent existence than the God of the Sun, will he be even more willing to pay for every penny he pays?

I only heard the majestic voice saying slowly: "The sun is fake, and the oracle is true. He has indeed come with my mission. You must respect him."

After that, there was no sound in Mayor Royal's mind.

Perhaps it was the aura contained in that voice that made him awed and awed, or perhaps it was for other unknown reasons. Mayor Royal felt that his previous belief in the Sun God seemed to be weakening bit by bit.

It turned into a feeling of doubt. And the image of the mysterious God of Darkness gradually grew taller in his heart, becoming an existence that was transcendent to all living beings, but also had compassion for all living beings.

.

It was getting late at this time.

As the noise of the crowd at the wedding gradually subsided, the sun gradually lowered to the horizon, the light dimmed a lot, and the hot air gradually became cooler.

And in the eastern sky, the deep night has gradually spread like splashed black ink on the huge paper of the sky.

Staring at the darkness that continued to stretch in the sky, Mayor Royal inadvertently had an illusion

He felt that the sun, moon, stars, morning glow and sunset in the sky were all deliberately forged illusions, like paintings painted by gods in the sky.

Only that darkness is the most real and eternal existence.

"Perhaps if I have a chance, I should go to Mr. Allen again... No, Mr. Messenger, ask about this." Mayor Royal thought to himself.

Although he still had some doubts in his mind, he thought that since the messenger of the God of Darkness was so powerful, could he solve the problem of reduced farmland production caused by the hot climate?

If he can really solve this problem and make the town residents have enough to eat, then what's the harm in becoming a believer of the Dark God?

…………

When night fell, Allen returned to his cabin and continued to read the books and documents on the table.

To be honest, when he heard the sun god's prophecy described by Mayor Royal today, he was also very surprised. He even speculated whether this was a deliberate setup by the goddess of light after she knew that he had come to this plane.

The conspiracy below.

However, in order to maintain the image of a god, he still answered Mayor Royal's questions calmly and admitted his identity as an "envoy", which could be regarded as taking advantage of the situation.

"No matter what, I have to find out where this Sun God prophecy came from as soon as possible," Allen thought to himself secretly. "Only by finding out the source, can I know what the Sun God in this plane is like."

existence, and whether it is related to the goddess of light."

Thinking of this, he took out a piece of paper and wrote down his next plan on it:

First, let the town residents recognize the identity of the God of Darkness and my messenger, and try to accumulate as much faith as possible.

Second, leave the town and go north to meet Isabella.

Third, find a governor or a big noble who has an army and is not weak in strength, and try to persuade him to rebel. At the same time, look for the whereabouts of other believers.

Fourth, capture the imperial capital and establish the Black Temple as the state religion of the Essar Empire.

Fifth, go home.
