Fata.
Seven Great Mages gathered in the council hall, the grave and silent atmosphere enveloping the entire circular chamber.
Fata is jointly managed by the seven Great Mages.
For managent, Fata adopts a rotational residence system, where three of the Great Mages reside in Fata for three months, then rotate to the next three, and so on.
The seven Great Mages rarely appear simultaneously; they are usually busy with their own affairs. When all seven gather for a eting, it generally ans sothing extrely important has happened on the continent.
After his student beca the Saintess of Fata, Great Mage Weasley beca the head of the Seven Great Mages and the permanent manager of Fata, with the authority to summon the remaining six Great Mages back for a eting.
Beside Weasley, Slo, Kama, Balard... six Great Mages sat around the circular eting table, gazing silently at the items on the table.
The eting table displayed many items, including important docunts regularly relayed by various kingdoms to Fata, intelligence briefings from different places, and so crucial evidence.
In the midst of this small pile of objects, the focal point of this eting was placed.
It was a Bible, but not a human religious Bible, rather one written in the language of the minotaur race of the demon tribe, with the words [Pure Love Sect] on the cover.
Next to the Bible stood a delicate little statue.
It was a lifelike carving of a long-eared young girl dressed in an elf skirt, with flowing long hair, hands held in front, her pure face slightly uplifted, sacred eyes gazing forward as if looking up to sothing.
"These were sent by Shaye Sect followers overnight from their Holy City. The religion of the demon tribe infiltrated their Holy City, sneaked into the Holy Palace of Shaye Sect, stole their revered statue of Shaye God, and replaced it with this statue."
Although the Great Mages present were already aware of the basics, Weasley reiterated them.
"Even though Shaye Sect and Fata only interact when resisting the demon tribe, normally, their belief in Shaye and our belief in Magic Goddess shares completely no common ground. But whether it’s us or them, both are crucial in maintaining the balance of power on the continent. — Shaye Sect calls this an unprecedented faith shock! The Demon Sect is launching a terror attack on Shaye Sect!"
Weasley referred to the Pure Love Sect as the Demon Sect.
"The demon tribe actually created a religion to counter the continent’s religions, aiming to enhance their power through competing for faith? Arm themselves ideologically. This demon lord is much stronger than the previous one."
Great Mage Sel showed an intrigued expression.
"The key is not that, Sel, but this figure."
Weasley pointed to the exquisite young girl statue, then took another item from on the eting table.
This was a green flag. In the middle of the flag was also a likeness of the long-eared young girl.
"This is a flag of the goblin army seized by the Esper Kingdom during their invasion. The image on this flag is said to be the War Goddess worshipped by the goblins."
Weasley looked solemn.
"Have you not noticed that this female goblin hailed as the War Goddess bears a significant resemblance to the god worshiped by the Pure Love Sect?"
Weasley’s words plunged everyone into silence.
Though aged, they were still highly perceptive to matters like this.
Whether it was the female goblin or the god statue of the Pure Love Sect, this exquisite young girl seed familiar.
Especially that incredibly beautiful face, it left a lasting impression, the Great Mages felt they had seen this face sowhere before.
"Is it her?!"
Soon, almost in unison, the shocked voices resonated through the council hall.
The expressions of the six shifted from excitent at the recognition to complex disbelief.
"Indeed. Coupled with responses from those proselytized by the Demon Sect all over the continent. There’s no mistake — it’s the elf, Lureya Youze Aigal."
Weasley nodded silently.
"How can it be? An elf becoming a Demon Envoy, there hasn’t been any precedent in history for this!"
Great Mage Balard, fond of casting Heavy Hamr Magic, stood up, face full of incredulity.
"Balard, sit down."
Weasley glanced at Balard, who slowly sat back down.
"How has the Elf Race responded?"
"The Elf Race has yet to respond. However, rumors of a pure elf from the Elf Forest becoming a Demon Envoy are spreading everywhere.
Diverse evidence indicates elf Lureya has indeed beco a Demon Envoy, the authenticity is very high.
And elf Lureya, once appeared in the campus idol competition at the Saint Karno School; that final aired live across the continent, so almost everyone had an impression of her face.
Even for the Elf Race, it’s nearly impossible to conceal this matter. Unless she cos forth to prove her innocence, it’s practically confird."
Summarizing, Weasley looked towards Slo.
"Slo, keep a close watch on the Elf Embassy’s movents, see how they respond to this incident. If, due to this matter, the Elf Race joins the fight against the demon tribe, it will an a powerful ally in the crusade. We at Fata can express a friendly intention to cooperate."
Do not underestimate the strength of fishers in other domains, besides fishing, their other strengths are quite remarkable indeed.
