[Ding!]

[Goddess Ayaseh has arrived!]

Without hesitation Alex dashed into the temple, He pushed open the heavy doors and walked in, only to be welcomed by absolute darkness. Nonetheless He chose to continue forward until the Darkness squirmed.

Clank!

The temple halls were lit up by Grey lights, Beneath the white Marbled statue who seemed to have changed its facial features to match the one the Goddess felt like having today, The Goddess sat upright on her throne as her eyes continued to shine like a child excited to see a favorite family member who came to visit.

It gave off the feeling of warmth, excitement, curiosity and intrigue. but what was most prominent was... Relief.

Alex was confused but he walked closer before giving a bow saying, "It's an honor for the Night Mother to visit at such a Time".

"There's no need to bow if you don't mean it" Ayaseh said, Her body warped from her throne like a pack of shadow demons and dashed forward. in less than a second, she stood before Alex as she stared fixedly into his eyes which resulted in Alex flinching while attempting to take a step back.

But he found his body unresponsive as he now stared at the glowing green pools before him.

"You must have been in so much pain" She said before a sigh escaped her lips, She casually walked around him with her fingers trailing across his tattoos. Only then did Alex notice that he was missing his cloak.

"I understand that you find it strange or unsuitable to act as my champion but I ask that you reconsider" Ayaseh once again made her request, Like Alex suspected, she couldn't force him for some reason, which was also one of the reasons she went with her conclusion.

[Ding!]

[The Goddess of the Night, Ayaseh has requested that you become her champion. Do you accept?]

[Yes or No?]

As soon as Alex heard her words, He initially wanted to reject once again but became hesitant. Seeing that he wanted to speak, she cut him off,

"Before you reject me, Let me say this...I know that you might have some of your memories and feel wrong about this, You chose to bid your time while building up your power slowly, I've seen how you have been slowly increasing your people's faith in you but this time around you don't have much of a choice.

Ragol and his Alliance have most likely noticed Alger't's Mana spike and have already set their sights here."

"He might not be directly able to see anything because of his lack of any temples in the vicinity but it's only a matter of time before his minions from the church come here. I can help you but I can't help you Without you being my champion so you can pray for my assistance".

Alex was even more bewildered, 'gathering faith?, bidding time?...I have no such thoughts as I only wish to live through the subsequent scenes from the Novel's plot.'

'Or could this be what the system was actually doing all along? How I've never wondered about the systems history? I just felt it was natural but.. I'll think about it later...'

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOO...

A series of explosions brought him out of his thoughts as the whole place rocked like an earthquake was happening,

"Accursed Divine!!" Alger't's booming voice could be heard from outside, "I can smell you from a mile away, what did you do B**ch!!".

His voice sounded crazier the more he spoke, Ayaseh frowned at this but chose to keep silent in order to let Alex think.

'She's right, this is problem'.

Alex looked at her, suddenly feeling indecisive which was not his style, He started noticing all his flaws since he came to this life. perhaps it was just his revenge that had been a kind of anchor, He didn't even feel anger when he died because he had completed his vengeance when he killed the Boss so life felt mediocre. but here?, he just wanted to live!.

She silently stared back, no one said a word, she had already said enough, although she looked calm, she was excited, something she had not felt since the initial part of her awareness.

She wouldn't be alone anymore, Her kind, She had always felt like the odd one out, others had lived lives before they became Gods, but she was one from the beginning, one with multiple authorities, which was why Ragol seemed so interested in her.

'Thief' She thought, suddenly feeling angry.

This was why she'd rather have him who she felt a connection to from the beginning than a random who might actually be of more harm than Good. Champions were like a direct line to a God, which was why Bolten had been furious. This Champions can also be corrupted, which in turn could affect his or her Pantheon

"I can agree but on one condition" Alex finally spoke, this attracted her full attention, completely cutting off the random thoughts as she appeared on the throne.

"I'm listening" She said.

"Hide me..." Alex stated, "Hide me for at least one year, so I can build enough power to compete with the others".

Surprised, Ayaseh thought about it and felt it was reasonable. From the very beginning she had never had a champion because she hated that feeling of being connected to someone, no matter how little it was. Now that she found someone that she could actually stand as they had some kind of resonance from the beginning. He would be the major target of the enemy Alliance and Honestly, His present level is nothing compared to the Champions of others, not even Neah's and his an alchemist.

"..." Ayaseh looked at Alex again but the latter didn't seem too bothered, after all he's joining the game later than others.

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOO...

The Lich was still busy in the background...

"very well...I can do that, I would cloak the surrounding area for you but you would have to take care of any that might accidentally stumble onto this Area." She stated clearly, indirectly saying that she won't stand guard.

Alex Nodded calmly while accepting the systems query "Thank you".

Immediately, a connection was established between them albeit barely noticeable but felt.

Ayaseh suddenly saw a thin green thread connecting them, Shock was the only thing she felt. 'He established a connection without the ceremony? I knew it!' Although all this was going on in her mind, she acted like it was normal so Alex didn't notice anything strange.

He was too busy feeling the changes, according to the systems, it was this period that his body was meant to clean all the impurities but he didn't have any to begin with, so instead his levels were being boosted.

His physical features had little changes as well, his Black hair became longer and his Tattoos became Much darker with a small green light flash passed them in a barely noticeable manner, His Golden Iris had a tinge of green in them as well.

Immediately, Alex went down on one knee as he suddenly prayed without missing a beat after all, the system just notified him that Alger't had chipped off 40% power from the Aegis, "Oh great mother, Ruler of the Moon and controller of the Abyss. I beseech you, come fight for your people, Rid this day of this scourge and you will be exalted".

His actions shocked Ayaseh as well, She suddenly felt the way he prayed was odd even though it wasn't much different from the way her believers did.

But now wasn't the time to be picky, She acknowledged it and conjured an Avatar, after all, her appearing personally was prohibited at the moment.

Her Avatar was made to be at the same level as the problem, the stage of metamorphosis.

______________________

Outside the Aegis, Alger't continued to assault the the barrier with the Orbs. If his Mana hadn't been forcefully taken he wouldn't have to waste time smashing this barrier.

Suddenly, He felt something appear above him. It was a woman who reeked of divinity, without any questions he attacked with the Orbs but was soon lifted off the ground by a shadow.

Both parties soon disappeared as the sky cleared the dark clouds away.

"that's it?" Alex couldn't help mumbling as he watched from inside the village.
