I am a god in another world

Chapter 1109 The Future Lord of the Dead

If the controller of this priesthood is qualified, he will definitely assist him conscientiously, which was fully demonstrated during Mikol's time in charge of the priesthood of the dead.

Although Mikol used a series of evil means such as mystery, fear, and threats to control the priesthood of the dead, from the perspective of the order of death, he was competent, at least there was no big trouble.

Therefore, Yager was willing to be the steward of the Skeleton Castle, a shadow of Mikol. People once thought that he had disappeared and became a forgotten person.

But if the controller of this priesthood is unqualified and fails to be loyal to this job responsibility, this ancient god of death will secretly make small moves. If nothing unexpected happens, he has begun to choose a new controller of the priesthood of the dead. I just don't know if he is now in collusion with Kelemvor.

Gavin's words are very obviously tentative. If possible, this matter is worth participating in.

It's right to have a good relationship with the future god of death, who is also a powerful god.

"I'm not asking for this immortal divine spark for the Prince of Lies, but for him, the future king of the dead!" The ancient god of death's style of action was completely beyond Gavin's expectations. The death scroll in his hand danced again, forming a large ring directly, and a human warrior appeared in it with a flash of magic.

This man was wearing chain mail. Judging from his face, he was not very old, only about 30 years old, but he showed a sense of vicissitudes of life, just like those middle-aged uncles who hid in the corner of the tavern and drank alone. With his handsome face, he was very lethal to those young girls who were ignorant of the world.

Kelanwo * Lionsbane.

A name jumped into Gavin's mind, and his deeds surged out.

This is a legendary figure in the continent of Faerun, a direct participant in the Year of Turbulence. He formed an adventure team with the thief Cyric from Zhentil Keep and the young mystic spellcaster named Midnight. With the help of the saints, they defeated the three dark gods of death, Bane, Mikol and Baal, and retrieved the Slate of Destiny.

The three were promoted to gods by the God of Gods at the same time.

Midnight took over the magic priesthood and became the new goddess of magic.

Cyric took a series of gods such as strife, lies, murder, conspiracy, fraud and illusion as his own, becoming the new god of strife.

And the young warrior Kelemvor took over the priesthood of the dead and became the new god of death.

However, this division only lasted for a short moment. When the God of Gods left, Prince of Lies Cyric successfully implemented his first conspiracy after taking office, directly defrauding Kelemvor of the priesthood of the dead, knocking him off the altar, and turning him into a mortal again.

It was only under the lies of Prince of Lies Cyric that Kelemvor thought he could not take on this important task and took the initiative to give up the priesthood of the dead, so he took charge of this priesthood with great difficulty.

Gavin was not interested in these secrets. He was interested in the fact that the man in front of him would regain the priesthood of the dead from Cyric in the near future.

Compared with the mad god, the one who took charge of the priesthood of the dead was much more qualified.

Under his control, death was no longer a terrible thing, and a link in the life cycle, it was not the end, but another beginning. It was not a punishment, but an indispensable and necessary need in life.

He was like a warrior, allowing death to proceed in an orderly manner, without falsehood, concealment and casualness. His believers would help those who were about to die and let them die with dignity.

When all the people of Furen were about to die, most of them would have a priest of Kelemvor by their side to accompany them through the last journey of their lives.

For such a god, everyone would respect him, including Gavin, even if he had not yet become the Lord of the Dead.

The moment he saw Kelemvor, Gavin was completely relieved. The recorder would definitely not report his affairs to the Prince of Lies, because the other party was clearly trying to pull him into the group to fight against Xirik and seek his position as the priest of the dead.

Without any consideration, Gavin said: "I am willing to dedicate this spark of immortality to His Excellency Kelemvor."

Investment should be made as early as possible, and Kelemvor, who is still in the mortal state, is the best investment target.

Now he not only has the support of the recorder Yager, but also a powerful divine power behind him - the goddess of magic Midnight. The two were a pair of lovers in the mortal stage.

If there was no goddess of magic, according to the character of the Prince of Lies Xirik, how could he leave Kelemvor, a security risk, in the world?

He would have crushed him to ashes many times.

Therefore, even though the spark of immortality was the first divine power that Gavin got, and it was the key to the powerful divine power, he was still unmoved and did not choose to integrate it into himself.

Because he didn't have the other party's strong backing, he didn't believe that the goddess of magic didn't help in regaining the priesthood of the dead.

"I refuse!" Kelemvor said slowly, "Old Bones, I have told you many times that I am not interested in your proposal."

His voice was like his temperament, low and hoarse, with a strong sense of vicissitudes.

Gavin was really stunned by what he said. These two haven't reached an agreement yet?

From what the other party said, Kelemvor himself didn't want to seize the priesthood of the dead, but the ancient god of death, Jergal, forced him to do it.

This is interesting!

Gavin immediately shut up and squatted beside to watch the fun.

The orange eyes of the fate recorder began to turn again, with fantasies in them. He said to Kelanwo dryly: "Taking over the priesthood of the dead and reorganizing the order of death is your destiny and your unshirkable responsibility..."

"Don't tell me about bullshit destiny!" Kelanwo waved his hand impatiently, "That's just a tool you gods use to fool mortals. Except for you who insists on this, other gods completely treat it as a joke and don't take it to heart at all...

Instead of spending energy on me, it would be easier for you to take charge directly... Obviously, you are the one who cares most about this matter, but just because of the so-called destiny, you throw it into the hands of a group of unqualified people. Don't you think this is a stupid thing?"

He used practical actions to interpret what it means to be strong without desire. He even refused the opportunity to become a god.

Naturally, he had nothing to fear and directly sprayed the ancient god of death.

Gavin on the side was secretly happy when he heard this. This was also what he wanted to say.

After careful analysis, the Saint's Catastrophe is inseparable from this ancient God of Death. If he had not transferred his priesthood to the Three Gods of Death, this series of chaos would not have occurred.

Of course, this analysis is somewhat far-fetched. No one knows whether there will be greater chaos if the ancient God of Death does not transfer his priesthood?

There is no trivial matter involving gods, especially powerful divine power.

The recorder of fate still has no emotional ups and downs, and said in a hollow tone: "My destiny is to pass on the priesthood of the dead to you and help you reorganize the order of death..."

These words can be said to have no new ideas. Not to mention Kelemvor, who has heard it countless times, even Gavin, who has been in contact with him for a short time, obviously feels that this is a repetition of the old tune and is not very convincing, at least for someone who is not interested in this.

It's fun to watch, but things still need to be done. Gavin suggested: "Master Recorder of Fate, there are some things that cannot be forced, especially the priesthood. If the person concerned does not have this intention, even if the priesthood is forced on him, he will end up with dereliction of duty."

These words directly made the ancient god of death fall into a long silence. As an old god, he naturally knows this truth very well, but his illusion of fate will not be wrong, and he will not make a mistake in people.

Let Kelemvor take charge of the priesthood of the dead, which is the best choice.

Gavin turned to Kelemvor and said, "I don't know why Lord Kelemvor rejected the proposal of the Lord Recorder, but I beg you to take a walk around the continent of Faerun when you have time to see what kind of tragic fate those mortals will face under the mad god who controls the priesthood of the dead.

I am afraid I am not the only one who has stolen the power of immortality, but I believe that there are only a few people who can use this power in a restrained way like me.

Souls that cannot find a home are wandering and wailing in the wilderness.

Countless souls are becoming tools and playthings of those evil and powerful people.

Demons and The devils of the Nine Hells are ready to make a move, turning the continent of Faerun into their new hunting ground. Even our goddess of wealth, Waukin, has been imprisoned by the dark prince Graz'zt.

And our current Lord of the Dead only knows how to immerse himself in the conspiracy and lies he has woven, delusionally dreaming of becoming the only god in Faerun.

The gods have not only power, but also responsibility, especially the God of Death, who is the first line of defense for mortal souls. If even this is full of loopholes, the world is not far from total collapse. "

Compared to the Recorder of Fate, Gavin's lobbying skills are much better.    He did not directly persuade Kelemvor to compete for the position of the dead, but he did not leave this matter everywhere.

And he went straight to his fatal weakness - compassion and the guardianship of the warrior, which can be seen from his actions as the Lord of the Dead.

Although Kelemvor did not nod directly, he did not refute it on the spot like he did to the Recorder of Fate.

Over the past two years, he has not been idle. His footprints have covered most of Faerun. He has seen countless lives and deaths and killed countless undead.

The more he walked and the more he saw, the more anger and regret accumulated in his heart.

Angry at the Prince of Lies's breach of trust, he broke his promise to himself.

Regret for trusting his former companions' promises and handing over the priesthood of the dead to others. Those souls who could not find peace after death were caused by his mistakes.

He could not answer Gavin's question and could only respond with silence.

Gavin waited for them to digest it a little before continuing: "I am willing to keep this spark of immortal divinity for you. Your Excellency, you can come and take it anytime you want. I will stand firmly on your side in this matter. The Prince of Lies is not worthy of being in charge of the priesthood of the dead."

Things are different now.

As he and his allies master more and more divine power, the importance of immortal power to Gavin becomes less and less.

Although it is not dispensable, without them, it will not cause a fatal blow to him.

And according to Kelemvor's character, he would not do anything to burn the bridge after crossing the river.

At that time, he could probably still borrow this power, but in the name of legality.

And before taking back the priesthood of the dead, Kelemvor himself was in an illegal state.

It is not an easy thing to seize the priesthood from a powerful god, even if he has a powerful god behind him and an ancient god as an insider.

They must wait for the right opportunity - Cyric, the Prince of Lies, has his own problems and committed serious malfeasance.

Just now he had the opportunity to seize the priesthood of the dead in one fell swoop.

Until then, they can only gather strength in secret.

With the help of the fortune-teller, this is not a difficult task.

After all, if there is a problem with the Death Order, it will be reported to him as soon as possible, not to Cyric, the Prince of Lies.

This can be seen from the fact that it was the ancient God of Death who came to him first, rather than the more powerful Prince of Lies.

If he does not make full use of this to seek greater benefits for himself, he is not Gavin.

"Thank you for your kindness. This matter is not a trivial matter. One wrong step will lead to disaster. I will consider it carefully." Kelanwo sincerely thanked Gavin and said, "Old Bones, please send me back first!"

Before the fate-recorder could speak, Gavin dissuaded him and said, "Your Excellency is rarely here once, so why not stay and see my territory of the dead? I'm not boasting, there are still some things in it that belong to me. From now on You may be able to use it."

Kelanwo's thick eyebrows frowned involuntarily and said: "The immortal power is the biggest destroyer of the order of death and should not exist in this world. Whether they are good or evil souls, they should be judged while they are alive. .

After death, the soul should rest in peace and wait until they are ready to embark on a new journey. "

It is not without reason that Jergal chose Kelemvor. Their understanding of death is very similar. They all respect the order of death, and are especially opposed to artificial methods and unnatural extension of their life span beyond natural limits. Among them, immortal life is the most important thing. disaster area.

An important job of the believers of Kelanvor is to send the undead creatures into eternal rest, not only the evil ones, but also the good ones, but compared with the former, the methods of dealing with the latter are gentler, usually with way of exhortation.

For this reason, he earned himself the nickname Judge of the Damned, referring to his absolute impartiality.

In comparison, the real owner of the Order of Death priesthood, the Death Recorder, is more flexible. Although he also fights against immortality and believes that all souls should rest in peace, he does not mind using the power of immortality until this goal is achieved.

"Forgive me that I cannot fully agree with your views. The souls of good people should indeed be ensured to rest in peace, but those evil people must receive the trial and punishment they deserve. Otherwise, there is no guarantee that they will not bring pure evil to the world. In the next reincarnation.”

Gavin did not blindly agree with Kelanvor, but actively expressed his opinion, "And this is a bottomless abyss. For most souls, becoming an undead spirit is more kind than becoming a demon."

The fate-recorder also spoke: "Your behavior of purifying the undead in the past period has been too ostentatious and has attracted the attention of the Prince of Lies. It is not suitable to return to Faerun for the time being. It is better to stay here to avoid the sharp edge."

This ancient god of death was obviously not just looking for Gavin, but was also planning to seize the priesthood of the dead.

Gavin, a being who steals immortal power, is his natural ally, and he must have been secretly investigating for a long time.

"This matter should not be decided by you, but by the owner of this place." Kelanvor's eyes fell on Gavin, "I will consider your point of view carefully."

This middle-aged warrior has a gentler personality than the legend says, and is also good at listening.

"It would be my honor if you could stay as a guest." Gavin waved his hand and directly performed the mansion spell.

A shimmering arched air door appeared in front of everyone, "Two adults, please."

"Your Excellency, there is no need to be so polite. I can take care of all my daily needs with just one tent." Kelanwo declined.

"Since you are here, Sir, you should let me show my kindness as a landlord." Without any explanation, Gavin got directly into the air door and disappeared without a trace.

In desperation, the Fate Recorder and Kelanvor could only follow closely. After all, the other party was the main target of their negotiations this time.

After entering the air door, there is a gorgeous hall with physical objects on the other side, with many rooms connected on both sides. The layout here is obviously modern, very similar to a fast hotel, and those small rooms are guest rooms.

But the long oak table in the middle of the gorgeous hall, which can accommodate a dozen people, has a very Faerun atmosphere. There are no lamps here, but it is as bright as day.

A group of neatly dressed but almost transparent servants were shuttling back and forth, and a steaming luxurious meal was brought up like running water.

As soon as they walked in, the transparent servants had already silently opened the tables and chairs and made an invitation gesture.

The three of them are not ordinary people. They are accustomed to the fantasy scenes around them. After a little courtesy, they all took their seats and continued to discuss while eating. The content mainly revolved around death.

After teleporting Kelanvor into the bottomless abyss, the Fate-Recorder gave him the right to speak and easily stopped speaking.

Kelanvor himself is not a very talkative person. Every word he says is carefully considered. Gavin talks most of the time, exploring each other's true thoughts through interviews with all parties.

This future Lord of the Dead gave Gavin a very awkward feeling overall.

He was very resistant to the fate instilled in him by the fortune-teller.

But he himself has a far greater concern for death than ordinary people, and his determination to purify the undead is even greater than those holy warriors. It is not difficult to see from his words that he has successively destroyed several plots related to the death of the Prince of Lies, and has become the focus of attention.

Even if there is a recorder of fate as an insider, it is a bit difficult to cover it up, so he can only be sent to the Abyss to avoid the edge.

The series of priesthoods received by the Prince of Lies Xirik are mainly based on Faerun. In addition, he has just been promoted and the local forces have not been integrated yet, so naturally he has no energy to reach out to the multiverse. (End of this chapter)
