Chapter 767: Diplomatic Work

Luminus, who entered our barbecue party uninvited, said that an army came after me, that sounds more than dangerous.

"After the attack on the Church of Light's main Temple, they were very angry with you." (Luminus)

"Wait! What attack!? I didn't attack anyone and I don't even know which Temple this is." (I)

"No need to explain anything to me, any idiot could see it was a punishment from the Church of Death, you would just alleviate the humiliation they felt." (Luminus)

"..." (I)

"You speak of armies, but I've never seen one since I left the Morror Continent." (I)

"I was following the army, but I wasn't going to interfere, I just wanted to get a better sense of the situation." (Luminus)

"But to my surprise, an Elf Queen appeared on that continent and drove the army away." (Luminus)

"I knew she was strong, but how strong was that army?" (I)

"She could be strong, but not strong enough, the real problem was the ability of Elf Queens and Kings to make contracts rom Spirit Kings or Fairy Kings, the ability to open gates to their worlds and ask for help." (Luminus)

"The army left knowing it wouldn't be the easy fight they imagined, but they're still looking for you." (Luminus)

It seems that I escaped from that Continent at a good time, but I am worried about what might happen in the next Continent, as far as I know, there the energy density is not as weak as I am used to, and I will be in real danger.

"Master, this is not the time to fall into your own thoughts." (Nix)

"Yes, I'm sorry." (I)

"I have a purpose for you." (Luminus)

"I have an item with me that can hide you from tracking by anyone other than your Familiars, if you would agree to be a mediator for us I would give this item to you." (Luminus)

"Alright, I accept." (I)

"..." (Luminus)

"Master, I think you should talk a little more with the others before making this decision." (Nix)

"No, this item is something I need, I've been looking for something like this for a while, I have a lot of these, but their effects are very weak." (I)

Ever since I rescued Vanessa from her God Baldr's Blessing, I've been looking for ways to hide myself from the eyes of this God or his devotees.

Unfortunately, I never found anything I liked, I even asked Rakan to research spells to block tracking, I asked Erica and Lilith to research curses that might reflect all types of tracking, and I've been practicing Aura techniques with Ragnar to feel if I'm being tracked somehow and asked Nicolas to research magic items that can protect me from tracking techniques.

But nothing seems to have the necessary level of power, I'm not afraid to face those of my level of strength, but it would suck to fight people much stronger than me.

Now there's even more people after me I suppose, I can hide my presence and Aura with training, but this is a world of magic where Gods are real, if they use some sort of tracking ability against me, I'd be dead not knowing the enemy is approaching.

"But I'll make it clear that I can help as long as it's within my travel plans, I'm not going to run around." (I)

"Fine with me, I'll ask someone to find you when I get to the mainland." (Luminus)

Saying that he simply disappeared from my face with the large tray full of food, when he looked at the grill I noticed that everything that was close to being ready was gone, leaving only raw meat to roast.

"Bastard, did he really steal my food?" (I)

Sigh

"You shouldn't agree to work with the Light Dragons." (Nix)

"To be honest, I was planning to do something similar anyway, at least that way I gain a powerful ally and an item that will save my life one day." (I)

"I know you don't like the Dragons of Light, but we shouldn't judge an entire race for the mistake of a few, otherwise I would call the entire Human race evil." (I)

"Why bother with that? I thought you wanted to avoid trouble?" (Nix)

"Because the conflict with the Church of Light escalated much further than I could have imagined and quickly, I realized this when simple devout Adventurers from the Church of Light attacked us on Cyrion Isle." (I)

"Weakening the Church of Light, revealing its crimes, diminishing its potential allies, will all undermine the Church of Light's forces." (I)

"I know we have our own allies, like your father, the Temple of Blood, the Temple of Fenrir, and the people of the Dungeon, but I have no idea of the strength of the Church of Light." (I)

"Bringing True Dragons to our side will strengthen us one way or another, so I accepted this diplomatic job." (I)

Pov Loki (Evil God of Fun):

"You know you can't beat me." (I)

"That's because you're stealing." (Shako)

"That would also be part of the game if I was stealing, after all, if I get caught I lose." (I)

I'm sitting at a gaming table the size of a large Kingdom, the landscape is full of games or cards floating everywhere, plus there's a square sun in the sky in the shape of a dice with three black dots on it.

"I missed you, the other Gods think gambling is a waste of time." (Shako)

"They are fools, they don't understand that what they do is also a game." (I)

"Yes, besides they are all very active in the last few centuries as they make their moves hidden from others." (Shako)

"You too, I doubt you'll stay out of the fun." (I)

"You're right, but unlike other Gods, I don't have a Temple or devotees, the simple act of playing any game is a prayer for me, but I don't like to interfere." (Shako)

"Is that why you're keeping me in your God Realm?" (I)

"Do you want me to be your Champion?" (I)

"Yes, we think alike, plus you surrendered your divinity to me." (Shako)

"I did this because I'm tired of sitting around looking at a board all the time, I want to be one of the pieces now, to be at the mercy of luck and choices, an infinite number of choices that lead to a path I can't see. " (I)

"Will be amazing." (I)

"Is that why you're thinking about staying with Selene's son?" (Shako)

"Of course, he has terrible bad luck, besides he is an Incarnation of Chaos, being around him will bring endless fun and the way he thinks is interesting." (I)

"Will you accept my proposal?" (Shako)

"Why not? It can be fun, especially with your unpredictable powers." (I)
