Chapter 1312: G.o.ddess Temple
In a flash of white light, Abel’s body appeared in the G.o.ddess of the moon temple’s teleportation circle.
“Welcome!” He saw Lorraine with her gentle smile. She had never been this happy ever since Grandmaster Bennett left the elves. Big Druid Lucia was beside her, and she was also smiling.
After all, only the headmaster and Lorraine knew about Abel’s ident.i.ty as blue dragon Abel in the temple.
“Lorraine!” Abel said with a gentle voice.
“Grandmaster Bennett, the headmaster is waiting for you in the hall!” Big Druid Lucia bowed and added.
“Big Druid Lucia, if that’s the case then I’ll go see him now!” Abel smiled.
He teleported to the hall, but the moment he stepped, a golden beam shot out from the G.o.ddess of moon statue followed by intense energy.
“The great G.o.ddess!” Big Druid Lucia immediately dropped to her knees.
Lorraine and the other elves also followed.
“Bennett, bow!” Lorraine saw Abel was still standing, so she gazed at Abel. Compared to all the elves on their knees, Abel was definitely standing out.
Even with his prestigious grandmaster status, the elves just couldn’t tolerate him disrespecting their G.o.d, so they looked at him with distaste.
“Grandmaster Bennett, welcome to my temple!” A familiar voice suddenly emerged from the statue.
“The G.o.ddess of the moon, sorry for the late notice!” Abel bowed with a smile, and the elves were stunned. They were talking as though they were friends.
“Since you are here today, I won’t do any G.o.dsend to greet you!” The G.o.ddess of moon said and turned to Lorraine, “Lorraine, treat grandmaster Bennett well!”
Abel then replied, “My G.o.ddess, I will call you once I’ve settled everything!”
“Grandmaster Bennett, I will wait!” The G.o.ddess of the moon sounded happy.
She knew forming a good relations.h.i.+p with Abel was crucial.
Since Ervo forest was her faithful ground, she immediately knew when Abel entered.
Although the elves were a little confused, Abel’s ident.i.ty was very special, with a G.o.d rank summon.
Therefore, it was the G.o.ddess of the moon’s duty to treat him well.
Her relations.h.i.+p with Abel was already much closer than the others in the G.o.d alliance. Especially since Abel took down the G.o.d of fire, his status was even higher.
There were many ways a G.o.d could interact with the world. The most common was through G.o.dsend on an amba.s.sador with special ability, which could be used in battles as well.
The most lavish was using a second holy body like Doff, but getting a second G.o.dhead was extremely hard.
Oracle was also a common method, but only small amounts of followers could receive it.
And finally, there was what the G.o.ddess of the moon had done—transferring her energy on a statue to make her voice heard.
This method was almost like the G.o.ddess of the moon directly lowering her grace on the world without being able to move or fight. Still, it was much more intimate, and doing a G.o.dsend on Lorraine would be awkward considering her relations.h.i.+p with Abel.
“My followers, he is a great being. You must treat him with the utmost respect on par with me!” The G.o.ddess of moon’s voice sounded again before adding, “Grandmaster Bennett, see you soon!” The G.o.ddess of the moon’s energy then faded, and she returned to her kingdom.
All of a sudden, the temple fell silent. What just happened? A grandmaster was prestigious, but there was no way he could be on par with a G.o.d.
“The great grandmaster Bennett, please forgive me for not greeting you!” The headmaster stood up and bowed.
He was the most prestigious person in the elves before Lorraine became an adult elf.
He thought he was already giving Abel a lot of respect for waiting in the hall, but what the G.o.ddess of the moon said made him feel very uneasy.
“Headmaster, don’t say that, just take good care of Lorraine!” Abel smiled.
Lorraine also turned to Abel with confusion.
The G.o.ddess of the moon was already the top of her world, but Abel was on par with her? What did Abel do?
“The great grandmaster Bennett, I think I should let the saint treat you!” The headmaster saw Lorraine’s face and remembered what the G.o.ddess of the moon said, so he bowed and stepped off.
All the elves also bowed and stepped out.
“Abel, what did you do?” Lorraine asked in a whisper.
“Doff became a G.o.d!” Abel smiled.
“Ah!” Lorraine gasped. She was trained as a saint, so she knew more about G.o.ds than other people.
It finally made sense to her why the G.o.ddess of the moon decided to treat Abel as an equal. The power of a summon belonged to its master.
“Abel, I was very worried the last time you left the elves. But no matter what, please stay safe!” Lorraine was stunned that Doff had become a G.o.d, but she still added.
“Lorraine, the golden castle is now above the Battlecry Plateau. It is Doff’s faithful ground, but you can visit any time you want from now on. I’ll introduce you to my dragon friends as well!’ Abel waved and said.
“Really? I would love to meet your friends!’ Lorraine smiled.
She was always worried about Abel, but since she was not powerful. She was always worried that calling Abel would give him trouble.
Especially since she heard about Abel’s affair with the legendary knights and wizards from the elves’ report.
Still, she knew Abel would contact her once he was safe and the stable supply of potions coming into the temple proved that.
Hearing Abel talk about the golden castle’s safety soothed her heart even more.
“Don’t worry, those dragons will love to be your friend as well!” Abel smiled. Since they were the only ones left in the hall, their words have gotten even more intimate.
Abel did not keep many secrets from Lorraine, other things that would put her at risk.
Of course, a kingdom war with the G.o.d of fire was included.
Lorraine kept smiling as she held down her worries.
What Abel had done was set in stone, but she still blamed herself for not being around Abel when he departed from the elves.
“Abel, am I useless?” She whispered after hearing what Abel went through.
“No Lorraine, I only had the confidence to face my enemy because of you. When you come of age, I will ask the G.o.ddess of moon to let you be my wife!” Abel gazed into the eyes of Lorraine and said.
He promised Lorraine and saying it again only affirmed his determination.
“But I have to stay in the temple as a saint even after becoming your wife. I can’t stay by your side!” Lorraine said in embarra.s.sment.
“Don’t worry, I’ll stay with you!”Abel placed his hand on Lorraine’s forehead and said.
“I will start training the next saint as soon as I become an official saint so I can return to your side sooner!” Lorraine’s eyes began to sparkle.
She then quickly looked around. Luckily there were no other elves.
After all, it was quite rude to start thinking about retirement before she even got the job.
Abel had no choice as well. He just wanted a good life for Lorraine, and the times he spent in the elves was his only peaceful times.
Even with a G.o.d rank status, his safety was not guaranteed. With his current wealth, Doff’s kingdom could attract many unknown threats.
Lorraine would be the safest in the G.o.ddess of the moon’s temple for now.
But maybe by the time Lorraine finally came of age, he would truly be powerful enough, and he was confident the G.o.ddess of the moon would not reject.
“Lorraine, the G.o.ddess of moon won’t blame you!” Abel smiled.
“Abel, can I decorate a room in the golden castle?” Lorraine suddenly asked in excitement.
She had this idea ever since she heard about Abel’s dragon friends.
She formed a little fist with her hand. Her instincts told her she needed to show them that she was the queen of the golden castle.
“Lorraine, you can decorate any room you please!” Abel laughed after seeing Lorraine’s reaction.
Abel rarely interacted with any females his age, especially one that was as powerful as Lorraine.
His love for Lorraine was true. Not because of Lorraine’s beauty but because of her pure soul. After all, they met before Abel had a G.o.d as summon, or Lorraine was chosen as a saint.
