"So could you absorb the hunt goddess?" Reeva asked, curious about how the sun god did it.
"Ug...." The sun god thinks for a bit before saying "Properly not, I have the domain of truth, fire, and light it would be troubleso to absorb an ice and hunt god."
"Wait why do you have so few domains?"
"That’s my main one... Like the best one I had that encompasses a lower-tier idea. often ti the other god was as powerful as I or their domain had a limitation that I didn’t I would just absorb them. The one that I couldn’t absorb I killed all their followers and burned their church down... You rember the god of war?"
"Yes... a bit." Reeva wasn’t well-versed in this; he only knew that it was related to the war between Eyre and another empire many years ago. The book explored the empire that fought with Eyre, but to be honest, Reeva just skimd that part because he didn’t like politics.
"Seems like they didn’t teach the new generation enough... Well, that guy had three domains, war destruction, and victory. He was my longest and biggest enemy but last I won the fight"
Reeva was then struck with a question, if the emptied fell tens of years ago but from what the sun god said, there was no god around him for what felt like forever. Why was that? However, before he asked he thought about his experience here so far and understood that in here ti felt like a suggestion.
The never-changing sky nor the land had any visible indication that ti had passed. If there was no sun god nor Reeva in the land of Reeva I would properly be perfectly still.
"So you dismantle their church?"
"Yep," The sun god said "God are both powerful and fragile at the sa ti. It’s hard to maintain your belief when reality says otherwise. It’s hard to be the god of war with no war, the god of destruction when there’s no destruction, and the god of victory when he lost. Let’s say that was my best fight."
Reeva wanted to ask the god about how he did it but the guy didn’t want to answer him. So he could only sigh.
"Oh, by the way, I have grave news for you," the sun god said. The mother was still alive. Usually, after she died, she would return to the earth and recuperate, but this ti, it seed like soone had a gem ready to resurrect her."
"What?" After seeing a glimpse of Nena’s power Reeva believed that she really put the mother down but seed like there was more to this than he thought. "Where is she now?"
"Around Cal Peak, far north" The sun god said.
"That would take a week to reach..."
"That’s why I would like you to cooperate with the hunt" The sun god gestured to Reeva "Here’s the bow language that the hunt spoke"
"Wait..."
Reeva rember the last ti that the sun god gave him information. This thing made him drop dead! However, the sun god didn’t care that much. The light ca out of his hand and into Reeva’s head. Everything felt a little dizzy as the knowledge of the bow sound ca to him. Eventually, he blacked out.

"So you’re saying that you didn’t do it?" The pope asked Plutus again just to be sure because every piece of evidence here was pointing at Plutus to be the one who killed the guy. But strangely when he asked him, Plutus’s answer ca as false.
"No sir"
He answered, this ti the result was the sa. Plutus didn’t kill the guy. Even though he was the one with blood on his hand and the other died right in front of him.
"It’s ti to co clean, have you done sothing heretical?"
"I..." Plutus gulped, even though in front of him was an old man, the people’s title and the radiance in his voice couldn’t be ignored. "I use the body of a void heretic as an artifact to advance my rank"
The pope’s eyes widen, If the other priests were here they would readily kill Plutus on the spot. So high-ranking priests knew about the void and actively trying to fight against it. If they knew one of the priests had fallen this low then they would kill him.
"Show your circle, I will shatter it"
This was the rcy he could give to this young priest. At least the guy would live on without dying and he wouldn’t need to kill a pupil he knew. Plutus knew what was coming after the pope said that. His heart was pounding and his head felt like it was about to explode.
There’s a part of him that cream very loudly to avoid doing that and run but, there’s another part of him that was loyal to the church. Eventually, the latter part of himself won that debate if there was so kind of demon hiding inside him, he better not be a priest for the safety of the people around him.
His hand gestured to his chest and slowly a circle of radiant light escapes from it. The pope looked at the three circles very closely, trying to find sothing wrong with it. However, there’s nothing wrong with the thod or the composition of the circle.
"Are you ready?"
Plutus swallowed his saliva, he knew that this process was painful. However, he was the one who made the wrong step.
"I will gladly take my punishnt"
The pope nodded and reached out his hand to touch the circle. However, before he was able to do anything with it, the circle turned pitch black, and Plutus’s body began twitching. His face and body undergo a transformation in real ti.
Then the void demon that was hiding inside Plutus appeared.
"I won’t be taking any punishnt today." It smiled and activated its power. However, the pope also smiled at such a gesture.
