Chapter 4209: The Story of the Blasphemer

~9 min read 1,778 words

"Yes, I am about to see the god."

Hearing Xia De say this, Mr. Albert stopped letting his imagination run wild, and his expression became serious. He had been brought here before, and he also knew how much pressure there would be when facing a real god.

The door was opened. After being prepared, everyone walked into the room together. Warm light radiated from the tall reclining figure, illuminating the entire world. Even though the light was warm, Ms. Thorne still bowed her head and dared not look directly at the god as before. Mr. Albert knelt to the ground after walking a few steps with Xia De and the witch.

This was both an instinct of the body and an expression of respect:

"God~"

His voice was trembling, or rather, his whole body was shivering. This was already the result of the compassionate god using power to protect him, otherwise he wouldn't even have the qualification to speak here.

The traces of "Divine Radiance" appeared on Xia De's body again. Standing in front of this god, the warm feeling made Xia De feel very refreshed, as if he had woken up on a Sunday morning with nothing to do, touched Little Mia, opened the window and saw that Tobesk was a sunny day, and then was hugged from behind by the girl asking what to have for breakfast.

The god did not look at anyone else, her eyes like liquid gold fell on Xia De. Even though she was not the Sun God, but an Old God with some ancient Sun God's grace, Xia De still felt as if he had seen that sun.

"She" smiled gently in Xia De's ear, and Xia De tried hard to suppress the urge to let the other party embrace him:

"God, we have found some memories for this poor man from afar. Are you willing to listen to his plea?"

The huge reclining figure lowered her eyes and nodded gently:

"Yes."

In Xia De's ears, this was just an answer, but in the perception of Mr. Albert behind him, it was as if the light of the sun was concentrated on him at this moment. Incomparably scorching, as if his soul was about to dissipate completely in that great light, Mr. Albert said his purpose for coming here with a trembling voice:

"Merciful God, my newborn daughter is suffering from a serious illness. I beg you to cast your gaze upon her. I wanted to bring her here, but she was too sick, so I could only come alone. I am willing to pay everything I have in exchange for your grace, all my wealth, my faith, even my soul."

Xia De breathed a sigh of relief secretly. He was worried just now that this person would make a very strange request, such as "cure my illness of being unable to obtain supernatural power."

This scene was really the most classic story of "a mortal begging for grace from a god," and basically every church story had similar records. Although Mr. Albert was only a memory now, and the one pleading was not himself, Xia De believed that the god would still agree.

After all, he really walked here for his daughter.

But this time, Xia De guessed wrong.

The god's gaze never looked at Mr. Albert from beginning to end. The warm feeling always enveloped Xia De. Xia De and the two mortals heard the god's reply:

"I cannot give you the grace you want."

The trembling Mr. Albert didn't dare to ask the reason at all, and Ms. Thorne also bowed her head and didn't look like she wanted to speak, so Xia De asked:

"God, may I ask, why is this?"

The god answered this question:

"His daughter recovered when he set off. There is no illness in her that needs treatment."

While Xia De and the witch were surprised, the Great One asked from high above. This time the voice was a bit stern, but only a bit:

"You, really don't remember?"

This question was definitely not asked to Xia De and Ms. Thorne, because Mr. Albert shivered even more violently. He was no longer kneeling, because he couldn't control the shaking of his body, he almost curled up on the ground. Xia De didn't want to evaluate it like this, but this appearance was very ugly.

The god with the temperature of the sun said:

"The existence that gave you the method to come here, the reward for agreeing to this trip, was that the other party cured your daughter. You were not sure if the adventure to come here would succeed, but you believed that the existence who made the deal with you could immediately cure your daughter."

The god said:

"You agreed to the other party's deal, you are not pious."

Mr. Albert shivered more and more violently. He was afraid, he was terrified, he remembered what he had done.

Xia De and Ms. Thorne also understood:

"He accepted the reward and explored here for others, just to determine if you really exist?"

Xia De asked, he couldn't believe it:

"Who is so bold? Is it a believer of another Old God who has a bad relationship with your believers? How dare they?"

The god's voice when answering Xia De's question was still gentle:

"It is not a believer of a malicious being, it is just another mortal who hopes to obtain grace. He didn't have the courage to come here himself, so he deceived others to take risks for him. That's all."

"But how did the other party cure Leonard Albert's daughter?"

The god knew everything:

"That illness was just an illusory illusion created by poison. Everything was just to find someone willing to come here to take risks."

Xia De heard Ms. Thorne sighing in a low voice behind him, and he also wanted to sigh. He thought he had seen enough in this world, but he didn't expect to hear such a story today.

Xia De understood the ending fate gave to the blasphemer:

"That person hoped that Mr. Albert could bring back the good news, but didn't expect Mr. Albert to die in the fog without even seeing you. But if his daughter has been cured, why would he have such a deep obsession that he came here even after death?"

The god answered Xia De's question in a warm but calm voice:

"It is not obsession, but fear. Fear makes him firmly believe that he is not blasphemous."

Xia De actually wanted to ask why he did such a blasphemous thing to test whether the god existed for others even though he knew fear, but he didn't speak. Human hearts are changeable. Perhaps the daughter being cured was really a result worth dedicating everything to obtain in the eyes of Mr. Albert before setting off, but when he really came before the god...

Mr. Albert didn't do anything wrong, he was actually a victim, but even if he was deceived, he was indeed a blasphemer. The only price people who come here need to pay is gratitude and piety. Those who have other purposes are blasphemers.

"Am I dead? Sorry, God, sorry, Ms. Thorne, Hamil..."

This was the last sentence left in Xia De's ear by the man named Leonard Albert. When Xia De turned to look, the other party's figure had disappeared, leaving only the skeleton that had been unsealed from the card at some point lying on the ground.

The memory dissipated.

"Who is the sinner who deceived Mr. Albert? We can visit him after we leave."

Xia De asked again, but the god did not tell:

"The sinner has died of illness."

"I see... I actually have some connections in the world after death."

The god seemed to smile:

"The soul of a blasphemer cannot go on. He is not qualified to walk to the end with those pure souls."

Xia De nodded gently and didn't continue to ask about the other party's fate. No matter what purpose or thought the real sinner who deceived Mr. Albert had for doing such a thing, the price was far beyond the sinner's imagination. Although the compassion of the God of Compassion is directed at all life, compassion is not without limits.

"Then this person's matter is considered solved... Actually, I should have asked him about memory in the outside world just now, and confirmed that he was okay before letting him in. I shouldn't have brought such a person here, sorry."

Xia De took the initiative to apologize, but the god answered very gently:

"If you hadn't brought him, Leonard Albert wouldn't have had the chance to apologize to me, and he wouldn't have been qualified to continue walking. He repented to me, and you gave him the chance to continue walking. Although his path will be more difficult than other souls, at least he got the chance."

The god reclining on the high platform smiled:

"So, you did a good job."

"You are really... merciful. You did cure him, cured his blasphemy."

Xia De could only say this at the end:

"Next time, I will ask clearly about the specific experiences of those who lost their memories before bringing those lost people here."

But the god refused:

"No need to force anyone to tell secrets. Everyone is qualified to come before me."

"Yes, I understand."

Xia De admitted that this god was really surprisingly friendly. This visit ended here. He turned to want to pick up the skeleton, but found that the skeleton had turned into dirty black. As soon as Xia De touched it, he felt bone-chilling cold, and that cold also contained a feeling that made Xia De very uncomfortable...

It was somewhat like the strange baby held by 【Mother of Infants】, the monster Xia De called "Abomination" gave him the feeling.

He endured the discomfort and picked up the skeleton, and only left after saying goodbye to the god with Ms. Thorne.

The door closed behind them, and Ms. Thorne asked Xia De worriedly:

"Are you okay holding it? This is the skeleton of a blasphemer, this is almost the dirtiest and filthiest thing in the world. Don't hold it anymore, burn it here."

Xia De agreed, but they didn't burn the skeleton in front of the god's residence. Xia De threw it into the corner farthest from the second-floor hall, and then a fireball shattered it. The raging flames enveloped every piece of bone. Even with Xia De's current mental resistance, when seeing those black bones burning, he still saw very terrifying hallucinations in the rolling black smoke. ===== CHAPTER 4210 =====
