Why must the devil be Defeated?-Chapter 1091 - 955: Goddess Vivian

Royal Capital, Noble District, Beizut Family.

After a period of buffering, the chaos in the Beizut Family had calmed down.

Many people already knew that the Hero’s residence had been attacked by the army of the Evil God, and more or less came to take a look, but after learning that the Evil God had been defeated by Shane, they quietly dispersed.

The common folk also learned of this news through various channels, sighing with relief on one hand, while customarily gossiping on the other.

"So it was the Evil God who invaded the Hero’s residence?"

"Pity, but our Hero can defeat both Demons and the powerful Demon Dragon they command. Such a trivial Evil God is nothing."

"With such a hero stationed in the Royal Capital, it’s truly reassuring."

"I hope the Hero can end this war soon."

"Yes, without the end of the war, even the business in the commercial street is hard to conduct."

The people discussed such matters, which made the various corners of the Royal Capital pervade with a slightly reassuring atmosphere.

After learning that the Hero could easily subdue the invading Evil God, wouldn’t anyone feel assured?

It must be said that in this era when the war had restarted after a thousand years, the fact that there was still a Hero in the world had instilled support in many people’s hearts.

It can be said that Shane’s existence as a Hero has become, to some extent, a spiritual pillar for the people, allowing them to maintain the hope that the enemy will soon be defeated and peace will soon be restored, even in this turbulent era.

Perhaps this was also intentional propaganda by the Kingdom?

To maintain morale, to prevent the people from losing the hope to live during the war, this kind of positive propaganda is quite necessary.

And when it comes to promoting heroes, uplifting morale, and giving people hope, there’s no more suitable candidate than the Hero.

Therefore, Shane, whose identity had already exploded in fame after being exposed, saw his renown grow even greater during this period of war, with his image becoming grander under intentional promotion.

As for all of this, Shane is still unaware.

He had just returned to the Beizut Family, looked at the half-ruined Beizut Family residence, and heaved a long sigh.

At this moment, the maidservants of the Beizut Family were tidying up the battlefield-turned-ruin, and the Knights of the Knight Order were also helping, with busy figures to be seen everywhere.

"Assign six people here, ten people there, three people should be enough labor here, and the rest should all go to the main residence first to tidy it up."

Lasha stood in the center of the crowd, giving instructions to everyone in a calm and flat tone, making the work unfold in an orderly fashion.

"Ha~~~"

Lilith was beside Lasha, holding one of her hands, yawning, rubbing her eyes with a sleepy look.

Everyone was working hard to restore the Beizut Family.

"I hope we can tidy up some places tonight so that people at home won’t be left without a place to stay."

Shane murmured to himself.

But his muttering was met with a gentle response.

"Lady Lasha is very capable, and the Royal Palace will also send special Court Mages to assist with the restoration, so it should be sorted out soon without any problem."

The voice from behind made Shane slightly startled. He turned around and looked over.

The person who entered his sight was none other than a girl in armor, carrying a giant shield on her back.

"So you’re here, Vivian."

Shane relaxed his expression.

"How could I not come back to take a look when such a big thing happened at home?" Vivian smiled wryly and said, "Tielle, Merica, and You Lin just stole some time from their busy schedules to come back, and Lu Muya rushed back in a hurry because she was worried about the safety of her sisters, but after confirming that everything was fine at home, they returned to their original jobs. Only I was given a day off by Riley, so I can stay here."

"Is that so?" Shane scratched his cheek and sighed, "Sorry for making you worry."

"Don’t say that. The one at fault is the invader, not you." Vivian shook her head and then showed a gentle expression, said, "Besides, this place has already become like a home to us. We care about it more than anyone else."

Vivian’s gaze at the Beizut Family was indeed like looking at her own home, very warm and gentle.

"I’m honored that you can consider this place as home."

Shane smiled and, alongside Vivian, they both looked towards the Beizut Family.

In such a situation, Vivian suddenly laughed.

"It seems we haven’t been alone like this for a long time, right?"

Vivian said such words.

"Indeed..."

Shane nodded in agreement.

Since arriving at the Royal Capital, various things happening around him seemed to develop and change rapidly, becoming very frequent and unimaginable.

"Though it’s been less than a year, it feels like a lot has happened," Vivian said nostalgically, "It feels as if the adventures in Lamijion only happened yesterday."

This should be the thought that resonated most with Vivian.

"I feel that those things seemed to have happened a long time ago."

Shane spread his hands helplessly.

There was nothing he could do; too many changes had happened around him, and different events came one after another, scarcely pausing, making him feel as if he had gone through a long time, unlike Vivian, who felt the days in Lamijion were like yesterday.

In response to this, Vivian smiled wryly again.

"After all, you’ve experienced much more than I have, and you didn’t stay in Lamijion for long. Unlike us, who have been there for several years, it’s been only a year since we returned to the Royal Capital, so our feelings are naturally different."

Vivian turned her head and looked at Shane.

"However, to some extent, after knowing you’re the Hero, I could somewhat anticipate such situations would arise."

Vivian’s words made Shane look at her as well.

"You anticipated it early on?"

Shane blinked.

"Yes." Vivian said somewhat wistfully, "With the Hero reappearing after a thousand years, just this situation itself already tells us that many things might happen in the future, and it’s even possible that the world itself will face a disaster."

This statement was indeed quite persuasive.

In this era where the Demon King has already perished, and the Hero is no longer needed, the Hero, once needed by the people, has appeared again. Those who know how to foresee troubles from safety would think that something might happen, which is why the Hero needed to come again.

Vivian is someone who foresees troubles, knows how to strategize for the future, and worries about the world.

For this reason, Vivian had already mentally prepared herself for this aspect.

Indeed, she would always take care of Shane, managing all sorts of things for him, including preparations to support the Hero, support Shane, and prepare for the future.

"To be honest, when you invited me, Tielle, and the others to live here, we actually discussed this in private."

Vivian revealed a secret Shane was unaware of.

"Our reason for staying here, from the beginning, was to support you and help you."

Upon hearing this, Shane didn’t say anything, just quietly gazing at Vivian.

Vivian continued speaking.

"It’s just that nobody would have thought we’d get accustomed here, like it here, and treat this place as our home, right?"

"Tielle, Merica, Lu Muya, and even I, at this point, have already started viewing the affairs of this home as our own."

"Even Riley has complained to me, saying that even though I returned to the Royal Capital, the times I returned to the Lazahad family are few and far between."

"I feel somewhat guilty towards her and her father, but it also shows just how accustomed I’ve become to life here."

While saying this, Vivian reached out her hand and placed it on Shane’s shoulder.

"And the person who changed us, who connected us, is undoubtedly you."

"Perhaps in the upcoming war, people of our level won’t be able to help you much."

"But I can promise you that this Royal Capital, this home, I will definitely help you protect them."

With a gentle voice, Vivian gave a strong and powerful promise.

Shane just stared blankly at Vivian and after a moment asked a question.

"Hey, Vivian." Shane hesitated and asked, "Why does everyone say you’re the Kingdom Guardian God?"

Vivian’s hand paused slightly.

"Sor... sorry." Shane realized and quickly said, "If you don’t want to talk about it, I won’t ask anymore."

However, Vivian just shook her head with a smile.

"You misunderstood." Vivian sighed and laughed, "It’s not something that can’t be told to others. On the contrary, those who know me or the top of various forces basically know about this, I just don’t know where to start."

Saying so, Vivian pondered for a moment, then spoke to Shane.

"By now, you should already know that the Goddesses of the Divine Race have a Core of Existence known as [True Seal]. Even if they die, as long as the [True Seal] remains, they can be resurrected, right?"

Vivian brought up such a thing.

Shane nodded, indicating he was indeed aware of this.

"In that case, it’s easier to explain."

Vivian smiled then spoke so.

"Although if the [True Seal] remains, even if a Goddess dies, she can resurrect, but it requires time."

"The higher the rank, the more powerful the Goddess, the longer it takes to resurrect."

"Especially those gods overseeing important domains, the time required for resurrection can range from hundreds to thousands of years, which is quite normal."

"But a thousand years ago, the final battle against the Demin God unfolded, and a goddess died before that battle started."

"Her Authority was very important for maintaining the frontline."

"With her presence, many lives and the frontline could be maintained, allowing the Divine Race and Human Race to maintain an advantage against the powerful Demon Clan."

"Therefore, to protect more lives, to end the war completely, that goddess transferred her [True Seal] to a human female’s body before her death, and through childbirth, she sought to resurrect as quickly as possible."

"As a result, a human woman possessing Divine Authority, yet having lost the identity of a goddess, emerged in this world."

Hearing this, Shane more or less understood.

"You were that Goddess?"

Shane asked aloud in surprise.

"Yes." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Vivian smiled beautifully.

"In the past, I was an Upper-level God overseeing the domain of protection."

"Goddess Vivian, that was my past identity."
