Far beneath the ground, a castle of god was born,

To shine a gentle light over the night with no beginning.

Above ground, the sun didn’t rise, and destruction never came.

No life was born, and the world came to a stop.

Order or people, which mattered more?

You know the answer.

You’re the only one who knows the answer.

§ 25. An Offering to the Gods

“What does it mean?” Sasha asked, tilting her head in confusion.

“A god built a castle here in the underground, illuminating the neverending night. That order of creation was what made this underground world.”

I didn’t know the details, but it was clear that this world had been created by a god’s order. However, nothing in the text confirmed its creation was Militia’s doing. Arcana could also use the Moon of Creation, so she, too, had the ability to create a world. Now what I was most curious about was how Arcana and Militia were related.

“Then what does the line ‘No life was born, and the world came to a stop’ mean?” Sasha asked.

“When I brought Abernyu, Goddess of Destruction, down from the sky and removed the order of destruction from this world, life that should have been destroyed continued to exist. Because of that, new life stopped being created, and the world stagnated.”

The number of sources that were circulating the world was fixed. Birth and destruction were two sides of the same coin.

“Perhaps that was an undesirable effect.”

But just because there was new life waiting to be born didn’t mean destruction was acceptable. The gods only cared for their own circumstances—as far as they were concerned, if there were new lives waiting to be born, then the living had to die to make way. There was no reason to obey such a thing.

“The rest is the same as what’s written on the other tablets.”

I glanced through the rest and read it aloud. The remaining runes on the wall glowed the same bluish-white.

“That’s the light described in the legends,” a surprised voice muttered behind me. “Don’t tell me he really deciphered it all...”

“How in the world? The secret script no one could decipher for over a thousand years was read by a heretic from the surface!”

“O Equis, the Almighty Radiance, please enlighten us. What kind of trial is this?”

The students of the institute reeled in shock, falling to their knees and clutching their hands in prayer. At that moment, another murmur could be heard.

“My god...”

With a vacant look in his eyes, Gazel staggered to his feet.

“My god hasn’t abandoned me yet,” He fled towards the fixed magic circle, but he was stopped before he reached it. A silver-haired girl had appeared before him. Arcana quietly held her hand.

“Your Pledge Jewel,” she said.

Gazel flinched, clutching his ring as though to hide it from her. “Great Selection God Arcana, my judgment is yet to be given. Once I find a new god, I shall return to this holy land once more.”

Arcana shook her head. “By the prayer of the faithful Oracle, Ahid Alovo Agartz, I, the Selection God Arcana, shall pass judgment on the Saint, Gazel Apt Ageila.
