Conquest... faith...

To put it plainly, what the young goddess needed were such things, but if one were to be more specific, it was rely for the empire... Was it as if the empire had this kind of allure?

It made Emperor Yose even abandon his own rule, hoping for Yila to take over, to turn the empire into the beautiful image she spoke of. Even Isabella... Well, Isabella was different; the empire didn’t matter much to her.

Isabella was a ruler, the most suitable ruler, yet her responsibilities and bonds were tied to other individuals. *Was this the empire’s fortune or misfortune?*

Because the people of the empire needed more friends, "Yila" thought of letting the whole world worship her... This kind of faith-based "conquest" wasn’t an extrely malevolent thing.

Even though the thods couldn’t be called friendly, to the extent of "non-believers must die"; in other words, blatantly supporting her own children while undermining those who believed in other gods... Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been confined.

"Faith" was a spiritual pillar that mortals must have. For the young goddess, having faith herself was aningless, but she knew... *At least the mortals of that era needed faith to live.*

To say it more complexly, there were many reasons that could be brought up. To put it simply... it was the lack of productive capacity.

"But now, I suddenly realize that... the children no longer need gods to guide them. We taught you to speak, taught you to write, watched you slowly cross the long river of history."

The young goddess spoke, looking rather composed. It seed with so comfort, yet with a touch of lancholy, she said, "Yila, you have done more than all of us gods combined... At least in terms of ’faith,’ this is indeed the case."

If this were considered a complint, then Yila could accept it. But... he didn’t think this was sothing good, nor did it make him feel powerful at all.

"So? What is your decision?"

Yila asked, looking at the young goddess floating in mid-air... She said she was going to the empire but had stopped halfway, apparently changing her mind.

"I will wander around the main plane for now, closely observing the lives of mortals... Do you all have your own affairs? Or, is soone willing to accompany ?"

The young goddess spoke, her eyes looking at the Beastman Country below, saying, "Starting from the land of the beastn, then returning to the Silver Moon Tree Court, then I’ll look at the extre north, circle to the Duchy... From the Duchy to the theocratic country, then up to the Demon Tribe."

In other words, circling the planet?

"Then to the empire? Are you going to observe for a long ti?"

Yila asked, seeing the young goddess who whimsically smiled and nodded, he sighed helplessly and then looked at the others behind him, saying, "You all go back to the Demon King Territory first... I will accompany her to have a look."

Actually, the work in the Demon King Territory needed not only their help, but he also had so things to arrange. But he could not allow the young goddess to wander around the main plane... He wasn’t reassured.

Rather than "accompany," it would be more accurate to say "supervise." *How interesting... Since when did Yila have the courage and qualification to supervise a goddess?*

So tasks, Yila could only communicate the specifics through the soul connection to Tipcapu, who would then relay the ssage... That was how remote work was done.

After exchanging looks of "Is that okay?" and "Probably, just leave it to ," the others departed one by one... However, with their abilities, observing from afar wasn’t an issue.

"Demon King Territory? Aren’t you from the empire?"

The young goddess asked, and in response to Yila’s "It’s complicated," she rely smiled and said, "Let’s go and have a look at the Beastman Country and its current conditions... During this ti, tell about yourself."

"..."

Yila felt a bit strange... How should he put it, the current developnts felt like dealing with a "curious baby t on a date."

She asked about others’ personal matters without concern... even demanding answers because she wanted to know, which was an arrogant characteristic of a goddess.

But her deanor was amiable, as Yila had no doubt that if he said sothing like "I don’t want to talk," she would just smile and not press further.

To describe it... it was like a very democratic mother who wouldn’t interfere in her children’s private affairs.

However, it was really odd.

"..."

Moreover, Yila could feel that the others from various planes were watching him too... The number of viewers seed to have almost doubled compared to when he was doing substantial tasks before.

Why was that? Was the guest invited prestigious enough? Or had the show beco more interesting?

"Yila? What are you looking at? Are you concerned about those gazes?"

The young goddess asked, clearly sensing the gazes of the others as well. When Yila shook his head, she didn’t ask further and said, "Let’s go, slowly walk in from the outskirts, interact with the common folk, and then et the King of the Beastn."

This kind of action seed like an inspection... or rather "scrutiny." What was she scrutinizing? *The worst-case scenario... could it be to see if the world itself was necessary?*

"Don’t overthink, before being a calamity, I am first a goddess."

The young goddess spoke, looking at Yila, who was flying towards the ground with her, his face showing a bewildered expression. She smiled: "The worry on your face is too obvious... However, the main plane indeed has t a supre King who cares for the world~"

Clearly, the term "supre King" referred to Yila.

"I am not a King, just a servant doing a bit more."

Yila spoke, and the young goddess nodded fondly, responding, "Alright, I understand~ But the gods’ evaluation of mortals never considers their self-perception, only what they have done... Are mortals any different?"

They were indeed the sa... but Yila never thought of himself as a ruler.

"That explains why you were ostracized from the empire by its nobles?"

"..."

*Could she guess that accurately? Although there were so discrepancies in detail...*

Yila thought but hadn’t had the chance to respond.

"Don’t be quick to deny. Maybe you just felt too weary of staying in the empire, unsuitable for fulfilling your grand ambitions, so you chose to live in another country. But... that choice was due to being ostracized, right?"

The young goddess spoke, deducing the truth almost perfectly despite having little information. She then patted Yila’s head, saying, "You have worked hard, my child."

"..."

Even though he had many retorts, in the end, they all turned into a sigh -

"Yes, indeed..."

Yila sighed lightly.

But fortunately, the world hadn’t betrayed his efforts.
