Chapter 74
Dense red pines and a clear river flowing between them.
And beside that river, a small clearing where fresh green shoots were just beginning to sprout.
There, nine beings sat around a large circular table.
‘Where is this place?’
Dojae observed the world in the background from a first-person observer’s perspective.
His physical body had vanished without a trace, leaving only his consciousness to perceive the world.
– This is already our sixth gathering. Quite a lot has changed since then.
One of the nine beings, a human woman, spoke.
Her gestures and speech were incredibly refined and cultured.
The slight upturn of her lips conveyed an air of ease, and the small mole above them added a special charm.
Her face was so beautiful that Dojae thought he might have fallen for her at first sight.
If only the hawk-shaped mask hadn’t been covering her face.
‘Elatra?’
That was it.
She was the great being, the one who ascended to godhood as a human, the goddess Ellatra.
– Heh heh, it’s all thanks to everyone governing appropriately according to their station.
What confirmed she was Elatra was the other human man seated beside her.
The alchemist who created the colossus. Altein smiled pleasantly as he spoke.
– Five hundred years have passed since our first meeting. Change is only natural.
– Peace is best! War is out!
– So why was this meeting called?
The other beings chimed in one by one.
Dojae, a consciousness entity capable of free movement, gazed at each of them sitting in a circle.
