Although she passed the Nagakapoulos trial, she cheated in a strict sense - the last piece of beach was clearly made by Kalya - so she did not gain many Nagakapoulos.
Blessed by divine power, but her purpose in participating in the trial was not simply for divine power.
For Lux, what is more important than the divine power itself is how to control the divine power and how to face the gods.
This time, she finally had the answer.
"Hey, Kalya, have you been thinking about this for a long time?" Leaving a naughty sentence "Except when eating whole mangoes", Lux quickly left the temple of the Snake Mother, pressed the hilt of her sword and
Kalya said, "And, did you deliberately let me get part of Nagakapoulos's magical power?"
"Our little Lux is a lot smarter this time." Kalya said in a pleased tone, "I understood the second purpose before I could decipher it."
"Is it to climb Mount Targon?" Lux ignored Kalya's teasing, "You seem to have been hostile to them from the beginning..."
"This can't be regarded as hostility." Kalya said in a helpless tone, "At most, it can be regarded as hatred."
"..."
Hearing Kalya say the word "hate", even though her tone was as calm as usual, Lux still felt something was wrong.
"You have told me many stories." After pondering for a moment, Lux finally said, "But you rarely tell me about the Titans."
"Because there is nothing to say." Kalya pondered for a moment, "Obviously, the self-improving mortals are struggling to survive, but the giant god sent an oracle to usurp the results, and in exchange for divine power, he gained the worship of Shurima... The historical story itself is not
What’s important is the warnings and lessons it gives us.”
"So the lesson you learned is?"
"Strength always comes at a price." Karya thought for a moment and gave a vague answer, "And forced choices often mean drinking poison to quench thirst."
These two painful lessons made Lux silent.
"Don't be sad, you can see that I have looked away." Kalya then chuckled, "To be honest, I have also suffered from past failures, but as time goes by, as long as I don't stop thinking, I can finally figure out these problems.
——Besides, isn’t there still you now?”
"And me?"
"Yes." Kalya said happily, "Although your magic level is the worst I have ever taught... but you are doing pretty well in other aspects."
"How specific?"
"Well, it's about the choice of path, the quality of will and so on." Karya tried hard to organize his words, "Although he is silly sometimes, he is still a good boy."
"Hahahaha, Kalya, you don't know how to praise people at all!" Lux smiled and rolled her eyes, then stretched longly, "You won't be lovable like this!"
"Dark descendants never have to please people." Karyahun said nonchalantly, "Furthermore, even before I became a dark descendant, I never cared about my popularity - I am not Miss Laxana who is loved by everyone.
~”
"Ah ah ah, shut up, don't use such strange names!"
"What's wrong, my dear Miss Laxana?"
"Call me Lux!"
"Okay, Laxana, no problem, Laxana!"
"..."
"..."
……………………
While talking and laughing, Lux returned to Rat Town and entered a tavern.
After having fun and having fun, after experiencing Illaoi's trial, Lux is really hungry now - maybe because the blessing of divine power is different from before, she feels that she can even eat at this time
Next cow.
Once again creating a shadow in front of her face, Lux found a corner to sit down and ordered a set meal for two.
It's not enough for one person.
However, after the meal was served, a familiar and graceful figure came uninvited and sat opposite Lux.
"Miss Shadow, how did you know I was coming?" Sarah Doom took the initiative to pick up the knife and fork like an old friend, "and ordered me one...but you may not know, I don't like sardines.
"
"If you don't like it, just put it down." Lux tore off a large piece of bread, dipped it in the soup, and then stuffed it into her mouth, "That's what I prepared for myself."
"It seems that our Miss Shadow is starving." Sarah put down the tableware after hearing this, and snapped her fingers to call the waiter to get another one for herself, "Why, the Temple of the Snake Mother no longer cares about food?
?”
"In charge of the food?" Lux, who was devouring his food, was stunned for a moment, "Why do you care about the food?"
"On missionary days, anyone who is willing to listen to the teachings of the Snake Mother can have a feast in the temple." Sarah leaned back on the chair and crossed her legs, "What, you don't know?"
"Oh, today is not a missionary day." Lux shook her head, "Besides, I have to leave quickly - if I walk slowly, I'm afraid that Ms. Illaoi will cause trouble for me."
"You provoked Illaoi?" Sarah was a little confused, "She... you dared to provoke her?"
"I'm just telling the truth, telling her that eating whole mangoes looks unsightly." Lux continued to devour the mangoes, "Since you pay so much attention to me, you should know that I met Gangplank before going to the temple, right?
?”
"I know." Sarah nodded, "That's why I came to you."
The last verbal confrontation failed, and Sarah later reflected on herself - although she still didn't know the identity of the shadow lady, what was certain was that the other party did not seem to have any ill intentions towards her.
Therefore, when she met Lux again, she simply chose to speak her mind directly without beating around the bush at all.
"You went to find Gangplank, but you didn't bring back the ship's mark."
"Yes, the Golden Siren didn't spend any money, and even made a fortune." Lux took off the bag from her waist and placed it on the table, "Glank is rarely generous."
Planck was generous for once?
Even though Sarah made various assumptions and preparations, she still found that she could not keep up with the other party's thinking and absurd reality.
"Anyway, you probably want to cause trouble for Gangplank, right?" In Sarah's daze, Lux ate a large piece of bread again, "Then can you tell me your follow-up plan?"
"Follow-up plan?"
"It's just a matter of where Bilgewater should go without the Pirate King." Lux explained, "I don't mind instead. I'm more interested in the latter part - let me hear your plan."
"...There is no plan." Sarah shook her head and said frankly, "I am just an Avenger. I hope to see Gangplank sink into hell, that's all."
