Chapter 287 : Revelations (3)

    "You once said that the goddess of light hated you. Why is that, and should I be worried about the members of the church of light?" Alex questioned.

    The goddess didn''t reply to most questions regarding herself or other gods, so he wasn''t certain that she would answer this question, but surprisingly, she did.

    "I have to say, I didn''t expect that question," the goddess chuckled before she added, "I don''t think that old hag would instruct her prim and proper followers to chase you, if that''s what you are worried about."

    Hearing that, Alex released a sigh of relief. He was already worried about the fact that powerful organizations with almighty members were already chasing after him; he didn''t want to also worry about the church of light.

    A sudden chuckle resounded in the darkness as the goddess of lust laughed, her voice so melodic and alluring that Alex had to do his best to not fall into a daze once again. "The story about why the old hag hates my guts is actually quite funny."

    Alex didn''t know what had happened, but he was willing to bet his life that what she qualified as ''funny'' wouldn''t be seen the same way by the goddess of light.

    "Once upon a time, way before your empire had been created, Imperion was filled with demons and other dark creatures. Those demons did absolutely what they wanted, from killing, raping, and other forms of life, they did everything they wanted. That was until the old hag made the high priest of her church at that time her ''holy son,''" the goddess said in a reminiscing tone.

    "Before becoming the holy son, the high priest was already a pious man who never hesitated to fly to people''s rescue, even when he knew he might lose his life. Thus, when he obtained the strength conferred to him by the old hag, his first endeavor was to completely wipe out the continent of demons and demonic creatures," she said with a chuckle.

    "What, you helped the demons and that is the reason the goddess hates you?" Alex inquired.

    "Nope, I actually didn''t do that," she laughed even harder. "At that moment, I did absolutely nothing," she explained.

    At that point in the history, the goddess released a depraved moan of pleasure. Alex couldn''t see her face right now, but he was certain that if he could, he would probably see the most obscene expression on the goddess''s face. It was as if she was getting a kick by retelling that story.

    "Ahh, if only you could witness it," the goddess sighed in ecstasy. "The high priest and holy son of the church and several of the usually saintly nuns embracing and fornicating from night to morning."

    The goddess sighed once again, "That man surely had potential and would have probably made a very excellent champion. Unfortunately, just as I began considering that, he, along with the nuns, were caught in an orgy by several of their followers after they missed their weekly preach. It wasn''t long before the information was spread across the whole continent, and the influence of the church of light was dragged into the mud."

    "At that point, the old hag was livid. Since the church of light was tied to her, the goddess of light, her reputation was also dragged into the mud by the actions of the holy son and nuns. Yet, she still decided to give the high priest one last chance. I don''t know why, but the old hag really appreciated that man."

    "What she hadn''t understood at that time though was that her holy son was past the point of caring. He continued to fornicate with the nuns for several weeks later until that fool had an epiphany."

    The goddess of lust sighed wearily and said, "That fool stopped fucking with other women as he realized that they no longer were enough. He wanted more. It was at that moment that he came to ''understand'' that the person he liked more than even his life and with whom he wanted to spend the rest of his life was none other than the old hag. However, he also understood that he would never be able to be with her in that sort of way, thus he had to find other ways to be with her physically."

    "Don''t tell me..." Alex trailed off as he had a wild suspicion of what happened.

    "You guessed right," the goddess of lust chuckled. "That fool brought down the human-sized statue of the old hag, made a nice hole around where he thought her asshole should have been, lubed it up, and was preparing himself to fuck the old hag statue when he was smithereens with a bolt of light by the very one whose statue he was about to fuck."

    "Oh my god.... HAHAHAHA," Alex exploded in laughter as he heard the most what-the-fuck story he had ever heard in his two lives! It was so hilarious that he practically curled himself into a ball, tears streaming down his eyes as he laughed uncontrollably.

    A second later, the goddess also joined him, and the two of them laughed so hard that the echoes of their voices filled the darkness around them.
