Primordial Sin System

495 Chapter 495-Sealed Powers

Dave was warmly welcomed in the empire, and the emperor arranged a grand banquet in his honor, inviting all the nobles and trusted subordinates.

The Lightning Empire stood out from other human empires because its nobles were exceptionally loyal to the emperor, prepared to defend their realm at any cost due to the goodwill bestowed upon them by their ruler.

Emperor Muller, one of the most formidable leaders in the human alliance, was also known for his benevolence towards his people.

He never abused his power and consistently made decisions for the betterment of their empire. Even in the face of his near-

death experience, none of his subjects rebelled.

Instead, they rallied around the prince, ready to defend their land against any invaders, displaying unwavering support for the royal family.

To their astonishment, the emperor was miraculously revived and issued a decree that surprised them all.

However, none dared to oppose his decree; instead, they rallied behind him, assisting in spreading the news and offering their manpower to support the emperor's endeavors.

At the banquet, numerous treasures and gifts were presented to Dave, who graciously accepted them with a smile.

Despite the admiration and interest shown by many noblewomen, Dave remained polite and cordial, offering greetings and smiles in return.

Dave's true status remained shrouded in mystery, his power undetectable by conventional means. His enigmatic nature intrigued the attendees, leaving them awestruck by the display of power he had exhibited earlier.

Standing beside Dave, Emperor Muller elaborated on various matters, including the treasures he had prepared for the Lord of Chaos.

Dave nodded in appreciation, impressed by Cardinal Muller's efficiency and dedication.

The crown prince also extended his respect to Dave, engaging in polite conversation.

Dave reciprocated the gesture, treating the prince as a friend rather than an inferior.

Despite being the holy son of a deity, Dave didn't exude an air of superiority, making himself approachable to all.

Throughout the day-long banquet, the dire circumstances they faced seemed to fade into the background as a sense of safety and protection enveloped the gathering.

The people found solace in their newfound faith, kneeling in reverence before the statue of the Lord of Chaos each day, thereby strengthening Dave's Divine Mark with every act of devotion.

In the residence provided by Muller, Dave, Muller, and Princess Naga gathered.

While Dave and Muller discussed the development of the church, Naga served tea and listened from the side.

"I understand the situation you're facing, so don't worry about your adversaries. Keep spreading the name of the Lord of Chaos, and I'll handle any threats you encounter. Devotees of the Lord will not be mistreated,"

Dave assured Muller, a confident smile on his face, treating the idea of enemies as insignificant.

Muller, expressing his gratitude, bowed repeatedly. "I can't thank the Lord enough. I promise never to betray the one who has bestowed blessings upon me."

"I will now attend to managing the empire. Excuse me, Holy Son. Please let my daughter serve you, and feel free to ask her anything you need,"

Muller stated as he left, subtly hinting at something by having Naga stay during their conversation.

Naga, feeling a mix of shyness and slight resentment towards her father's decision, bowed gracefully, accepting the task bestowed upon her by her father.

She knew her father never wanted her to be in bad so even he was on his deathbed, he never yielded and never agreed to the proposal of the Metal Emperor for the antidote even if it would cost him his life.

She sighed and decided to act as her father wished, but she clearly didn't want to give everything to the man she had just met.

Even though the guy was charming and handsome, she was a seasoned warrior; even her body didn't show signs of it because of her beauty, and she had a strong resolve.

Emperor Muller bowed again then left the place, leaving only Dave and Naga.

Naga looked at Dave with a curious expression, but Dave ignored her existence as if she didn't exist in the place and closed his eyes.

Naga was stunned, and she thought that Dave would take advantage of her as her father said she should do anything he asked, but Dave ignored her like air.

She had met a lot of guys who acted polite and cold but secretly coveted her body, so she didn't have a good perception of men.

Throughout her life, she only focused on getting stronger, and she rarely cared about political issues of the empire.

Now, feeling ignored makes her feel ashamed but relieved as she realized that Dave didn't want something from her body.

She remains standing while contacting with the sword spirit.

"Naga, I feel something in that guy, I cannot see through him as if he was shrouded with mystery, and I feel a familiar aura around him."

The sword spirit told Naga, who was shocked because she never felt the sword spirit tremble when talking to her, as if she was afraid of Dave noticing her.

"What is it?" She asked, becoming more curious about Dave.

"There is something in his body, and I cannot identify it, but I feel like he has the key for me to awaken my sealed powers."

Naga was stunned by her words.

"Sealed powers?"

The sword spirit replied.

"When I was created by the Sword Goddess, she sealed 70 percent of my powers because my existence can cause imbalance in the God's domain; I myself can kill a God who is immortal in my full powers."

"The Sword Goddess told me not to try unsealing my powers because it can take a huge toll on the user's body, and their life might be lost from controlling me."

"I was originally a failure created by the Sword Goddess, but she extracted some of her blood when she created me, so I am still above any normal God Level Weapon."

"If I am completely unsealed when I am in the hands of my master, the previous Sword hero, the Celestial Slayer, he might not have died from the enemy's siege."
