Although Danluciel had a noble temperament and a head of gold-like shining blonde hair, Louie could see the face of a nervous businessman in front of him.

Strangely enough, Louie also found a trace of hostility deep within the depths of the woman’s jewel-like pupils.

Hostility?

Louie wondered why this woman would be hostile to him. This would be the first time Louie had seen her, and they had no encounters before this. If it was his Dragon City taking two of the alliance’s kingdoms, which caused the Seven Kingdom Alliance to only exist in name, he did not think that she would hold it against him. He had heard that this lady was a qualified lord, and if so, she shouldn’t have taken such a minor thing to heart.

“But now, the real ‘Capital of Wealth’ on the main continent should be your Dragon City. All merchants all over the world think of it as paradise. They treat it as a city where wealth is generated, wrestling in even my people desiring to travel to your kingdom to earn more money.”

Although Danluciel’s tone was respectful and contained praise for Louie’s achievements, Louie could clearly detect a hint of dissatisfaction and even resentment towards the status quo.

“Lady Danluciel, did any of your relatives die when Dragon City invaded Selar and Danbusil?”

Louie suddenly opened his mouth and asked.

Danluciel was a little puzzled by Louie’s question, but she smiled and shook her head, “I don’t have any relatives who died in that war.”

“Since that’s the case, why are you hostile to me, Lady Danluciel?”

Louie ran his hand along Lara’s white back and sharply looked at Danluciel. The divine might he released carried a strong compulsion that made a demigod like Danluciel feel suffocated in an instant.

At the same time, the several other goddesses present also looked at Danluciel with somewhat surprised looks. They wondered how bold this woman was to even be hostile to a true god.

Danluciel panicked. She did not expect that Louie would be able to detect the deep hostility she had buried in her heart. However, she was truly a businessman through and through. She maintained composure and said in a rather surprised and panicked voice, “I don’t know what you are talking about, Your Highness Louie. I don’t have any conflicts with you who is a true god. How could I even dare be hostile to you?”

Danluciel was terrified. She was now in front of five true gods. Even if she was a demigod, angering these true gods would result in her instant death. None of them would hesitate to kill her. Even the weakest Lara would just need to use a bit of divine power to kill her.

This was the absolute difference between true gods and every other life form.

In particular, Danluciel did not have any faith nor did she have a powerful god backing her. In this case, it was easy to imagine what would happen to her if she angered a true god.

Moreover, even if she had a god backing her, generating hostility in front of a god would be tantamount to an act of seeking death. A folly that even a god would give up on her.

‘A demigod without faith?’

Louie finally understood where her hostility came from. In this era where the gods were recovering, demigods would normally choose to believe in a god even if it was a shallow one. As a lord, Danluciel chose to not have any faith at all, which was not suited to the trend that the world was following. This was something impossible for someone like her to do as a businessman who once did business throughout the continent.

In other words, Danluciel had greater ambition and faith would become a shackle to her ambition.

“So that’s how it is. Lady Danluciel wants to become a true god. That’s why you visited Her Highness Sune because among the current gods, her nature is the most compatible with yours and she would likely help you.”

After thinking a little, Louie understood Danluciel’s goal. He slightly sighed at how amazing this era was. Any mortal who had the slightest chance would want to become a true god.

However, Louie also understood their thoughts. This era was simply the best era to become one. The number of gods and new gods that appeared was not more than fifty. This number was not even half of what it used to be. Leaving aside the divine authorities, perhaps there would be more than a hundred mortals who could achieve the position of a true god.

Now that many positions are vacant, those who had the talent and ability would work hard. Princess Andrea was one of them, and so was Danluciel who was in front of him.

Compared to the immortality of true gods, the glory and wealth of mortals were really just passing clouds.

Perhaps in a hundred years’ time, the positions of the gods would mostly be occupied. Three hundred years later, mortals would not be able to become true gods anymore. Unless a big event like the Terran Civilization invasion happens again, the pantheon would largely establish itself.

These 100 years would be the best chance for all mortals, and perhaps their only chance.

“Your Highness Louie is right. Danluciel came to the Temple of Brightwater to seek my protection. She is even willing to move her divine kingdom into the Temple of Brightwater after becoming a true god just like Leila.”

Sune, the Goddess of Love and Beauty, spoke up at this time.

The meaning of her words was clear. The method of having a divine kingdom as a boarding house existed, but this meant that Danluciel would become the subordinate god of the Goddess after ascending.

The reason why Sune explained it this way was to clarify their relationship. If Louie was truly annoyed with Danluciel, Sune would definitely not shelter her and would a blind eye to Louie killing her.

Offending a powerful god for someone uncertain was an unprofitable business that Sune would not do no matter how bold she was.

Moreover, those who could become true gods, especially ancient gods, were not idiots. Louie coming here at this moment definitely meant that he had some intentions. Making friends with Louie was naturally better than sheltering a possible upstart

This was the truth of the gods. Although they had emotions, most of them were moved by benefits alone. The relationship between gods was the same as that of nations.

“Lady Danluciel, you want to become the ‘God of Wealth’, right?”

This was the divine kingdom of the Goddess of Love and Beauty, so Louie had to give her some face. When he was faced with a faint hostility, Louie did not get angry as he was not an overly petty god.

Louie had also seen the reason for Danluciel’s hostility towards him and went to the main topic.
