Chapter 499: Chapter 30: Lady, Sleep Well, Don’t Look Back (4.6k)_3
The honest Agriculture God nodded in acknowledgment and then opened the Magic Circle Diagram, taking out the Horn of Plenty.
“So, I’ve brought this, it can purify the land contaminated by the breath of death, allowing the Arcadians to reap at least ten years of bountiful harvests. I hope this can make amends for the wrongdoings of my followers.”
At that moment, the Divine Artifact had been re-infused with Divinity, and the rich essence of life spread out, causing the plants in the garden to grow visibly faster.
Changing the soil quality? Ten years of bountiful harvests? What a great item!
Luo En accepted the reactivated Horn of Plenty, seemingly unable to put it down.
Such Authority might not be much use to Deities, but for a nation, it surpassed countless treasures of gold and silver and powerful weapons.
...
Particularly in Arcadia, with its many mountains and forests, the arable land was quite limited. The Horn of Plenty, capable of expanding cultivation and guaranteeing bountiful harvests, was simply the most valuable treasure to Arcadians.
And with this thing, Atalanta’s position as queen would be unshakeable.
From the Agriculture God’s gesture, the sincerity in reconciliation and compensation was substantial.
But well…
“Although I really want to clear things up for you and understand your sincerity, this item seems to be something I gave to your followers, and that too in front of a group of Divine Blood Heroes. Using it just to offset the debt might not satisfy everyone.”
Luo En held the Horn of Plenty in his hand, looking quite helpless.
In a nutshell— it’s not enough, you need to add more money!
Although Demeter was amicable, she was no fool; she rolled her eyes at the young man before her and let out a light huff before taking out a cloth bag and placing it on the table.
“This is a Spring Planting Bag; it contains good seeds I’ve selected during my travels through various countries. If you promote the cultivation of crops suitable for Arcadia’s soil, ordinary people won’t have to risk venturing into the mountains to hunt Magic Beasts for food.”
“I believe the Arcadians will be grateful for your kindness, and will remember the sacrifices made by the followers of the Cult of Erebus in fighting the Beast Disaster!”
Luo En immediately defined the stance of the followers of Erebus and sent a favor downstream to the bleeding Demeter.
“Once the situation stabilizes, regarding the issues of replanting and nurturing seedlings, I’ll have Her Majesty the Queen consult the scholars of the Esoteric Teachings of Erebus.”
“That would be best.”
Upon hearing this, Demeter nodded with satisfaction, and a warm smile appeared on her face.
In fact, this was also one of the reasons for her visit to Arcadia.
She and her daughter Persephone’s primary roles were gods of agriculture and plants, yet the followers of the Esoteric Teachings of Erebus were blindly pursuing “Immortality” and “Undying Life” due to the secret ceremony of Erebus she had once performed.

This was nothing less than neglecting the essentials and it even hindered the spread of her faith.
So, Demeter also planned to take this opportunity to set things straight internally and re-establish the doctrines and purpose of the Esoteric Teachings of Erebus.
And the trick Luo En stealthily used to send these people back to farming perfectly met Demeter’s expectations.
That’s more like it; those who worship the gods of agriculture and plants should honestly practice medicine, cultivate land, and study plant properties. Always pondering on drugs and eternal life is bound to bring her new troubles sooner or later.
Seeing a long-standing problem resolved so smoothly, Demeter was in high spirits and waved her hand, leaving behind a clay pot.
“I heard her mother say that the child lost her father over this matter and has just taken the throne? Take it for her, this is a little gift I’m giving her.”
The Agriculture God said, rolling her eyes at someone who had been scheming to get her Gold Coins and huffed with annoyance.
“…Consider it extra!”
Luo En accepted the clay pot with an awkward smile and curiously opened it to find that it was actually a pot of Hygieian Porridge.
“I cooked it myself. Although it can’t grant her immortality, it is more than enough to cleanse most of her mortal essence,” Demeter responded softly, then glanced at the sleeping Queen of Arcadia, seemingly moved by a sense of shared affliction, and added solemnly, “There’s some in her mother’s drink as well…”
Luo En nodded, suddenly filled with respect for the Agriculture God before him.
Having compassion for the miseries of humans and being willing to act upon it was indeed a rare quality for deities.
“All right, that’s all I have to say. I must be going now.”
The meeting officially ended, and Demeter transformed into a green glow, vanishing from sight.
Just as Luo En was about to take stock of the wool he had pulled over her eyes, the returning Twins barged in.
“Someone is looking for you again, it seems, and it’s another deity…”
