---[The Death Eye of Balor][7] is a Godly Eye Gift that can confer death upon others.
It could also be traced back to the Celtic Myths of fifth Century BC, the Mystic Eye that was recorded to be owned by King Balor of the Titan race. Legend had it that if the eye is open, It would shine as bright as the Sun and confer death at the same time.
If wind was the medium that conferred death for the [Black Death Demon Lord]---
Then, the magical eye [The Death Eye of Balor] that was accompanied with light would be able to forcefully confer death.
“But [The Death Eye of Balor] should have vanished together with Balor’s death. Why would it still be……”
“There isn’t anything strange about this. After some research, I learnt that the Celtic gods are mostly those that have acquired Divine spirits. In other words, it also means that they have built up spirit levels that would allow them to rise to the level of Divine Spirits. And since it is so, it wouldn’t be too surprising to see a day when a second Balor appears.”
---It was as Sala said. By accumulating accomplishments, it was true that one could acquire the amount needed to rise to a Divine spirit level.
A very good example would be [Black Death Demon Lord].
Besides the 80 million souls, she had also absorbed the respect and fear caused by the [Piper of Hamelin], and rose to the Divine Spirit level with that.
The ascension to a Divine Spirit is by overcoming the test to [accumulate more than a certain number of devotees] to receive that Gift.
“Nu…Now that you mention it, it’s true ……More than half of the Celtic gods were able to obtain their devotees from their country’s might. It’s said that the reason behind it is due to the belief of the Druid kind who possess their own power, devoting themselves to the idolizing of their ancestors and nature as the mainstream belief……”
“That’s right. As long as there is a large congregation of beliefs from Mankind, one will become a god. The Celtic myths are a clear example of that. And precisely because it is in Little Garden, the number of Titans who happen to awaken to [The Death Eye of Balor] isn’t that rare. Another way to explain it would be the effect of leading to the replications.”
As her words ended, Sala shifted her gaze down.
Looking upon the eye that was imbued with the power of a Demon Lord.
“I guess those guys would want to retrieve this godly eye even if they have to use unscrupulous means. Though its true power cannot be released without a suitable element affinity, it’s still a very strong Gift. I think they will continue to use the chance when we are busy hosting the Harvest Festival and are unable to divert our attentions to launch their next attack.”
“Yahoho……So, you mean for us to provide support and protect the City from being destroyed?”
Jack and Ayesha didn’t even bother to hide their disgusted expressions. Though the both of them might possess combat abilities, their Community [Will-O'-Wisp] wasn’t oriented towards combat for no matter how you see them, they are still a Community that focused on Crafting.
If it were similar to the previous situation where they were forcefully dragged in, that would have been a different matter. But to be on the side that initiates the act of war would be pushing their motto a little too far off.
Swaying her twintails, Ayesha’s expression was troubled.
“It’s true that Willa Onee-san is strong, but her character is totally unsuitable for combat. Hence, unless there’s a very special situation that crops up, she wouldn’t even be willing to participate in normal Gift Games. Moreover for this kind of matter, shouldn’t it be the correct procedure to first find the [Floor Master] to discuss? The other party is a Community that doesn’t even follow the rules of Gift Games and ignore the laws completely isn’t it?”
Hearing Ayesha’s accusation, Sala continued to keep her silence for the blame wasn’t wrong.
Regarding the punishments that are supposed to be imposed on the criminals who broke the law this time, it’s originally the task of the [Floor Master]. Needless to say, those guys were an unlawful group that didn’t even possess the [Authority of Host Master]. Even if it were a one-sided massacre towards them, they would have no right to voice their protest.
However, Sala only showed a very troubled gaze as she shook her head.
“Unfortunately……There’s no [Floor Master] for South Side currently.”
“……what?”
“This was something that happened a month ago, around the time that [Black Death Demon Lord] had appeared. A Demon Lord who lived in 7000000 Outer Gate had beaten the [Floor Master] and his safety and or whereabouts are currently unknown. And I heard that the real identity of the Demon Lord is also a mystery.”
“WHAT?!”
The surprising revelation caused Ayesha to gape and be tongue tied. The others were also similar. All of them didn’t expect the position of [Floor Master] to be in a state of vacancy.
Sala closed her eyes and lifted her head as she started on the details of the situation in South Side.
“The Titans had started becoming active since that incident. My comrades of [One Horn]---the herd of unicorns who were supposed to migrate over to [Underwood] had also been attacked by the Titans and suffered serious casualties that almost wiped them out. We haven’t been able to get in contact since.”
“How…How can it be……”
