Chapter 487: Links
'But I wonder does the Series-S artifact also have multiple sealed souls inside like the Coin Necklace?'
In truth, the Coin Necklace was nothing but a powerful Extraordinary Level artifact. Although it had mysterious luck abilities, it wasn't strong enough to cause large catastrophes like a normal intellectual artifact.
But the Book of the Past artifact was a different one.
Charles also learned that there were four more powerful Intellectual artifacts in Deceivers' organization's possession, and each of them was powerful and could even cause large-scale catastrophes.
For example, an artifact called 'Miracle Mirage' could even be capable of pulling every soul in the Physical World to the Dream World and giving them their wishful life in the form of dreams!
As for these intellectual artifacts' origin? Luis knew nothing much about it.
But Bryson believed that they were Goddess Zaqiel's possessions.
Still, he wasn't sure about some things, though.
For example, the Divine artifacts that Light Church-owned were all like Extraordinary Artifacts and had many drawbacks like activation times, chanting rituals, etc.,
They were also a lot weaker.
On the other hand, artifacts like Book of the Past and the 'Miracle Mirage' were unique on their own!
Even the Coin Necklace was far more powerful than a normal Divine Artifact from the Light Church.
Also, be it the Goddess Shield which Duke Michael had in his possession or any other Divine artifacts, most of them had one thing in common.
They were all created using the power of Light and Truth.
But there was no mention of Light Magic in ancient literature or the Fallen Empire era scripts.
No one even knew what magic did Goddess Zaqiel used at that time.
But wherever she moved, the land flourished, thunders and rain descended, and Nature itself extended its own hands to create miracles upon miracles on this land.
The people of that time even called her the Angel of Wishes, not the Angel of Light!
Bryson also suspected that Goddess Zaquel had three types of power. The first one was Luck-based power, the second one was a Dream based one, and finally, the last one was a Nature-based one.
He believed that the 'Nightmare' that attacked the Holy See was not an Angel like the Church mentioned in the books but an intelligent artifact of Goddess Zaqiel!
'Wait... He knew of the 'Nightmare' being's attack on the Holy See but didn't have any idea about who stole it 210 years ago? Interesting.'
At that moment, Charles knew that the one who erased all evidence linked to Deceivers' organization with the 'Nightmare' box and the Druids' Guild was none other than Bryson himself.
'But Light Church must have known about his real identity at that time and even his link with the Druid's Guild. So, he had no choice but to isolate himself from the rest of the world and wait for an opportunity to undo the curse completely. I suspect that the only way to undo the Nightmare Curse must be something to do with the silver crowns.'
The next thing that surprised him was Goddess Zaqiel's miracles in the past.
'Miracle? Maybe Goddess Zaqiel was a [Historian] Class mystic? Or a luck-based bloodline warlock? Is this the reason why I stumbled upon a lot of luck-based artifacts and even a luck-related Awaken Knight recently?' Charles furrowed his eyebrows in suspicion and soon shook his head.
He then shifted his attention towards the memories and started reading more about Faith Realm's history.
When Goddess Zaqiel came to this world, she seemed to be injured and even had a mysterious illness that caused her health to worsen.
Still, she hid everything from the innocent civilians, built a civilized Empire, and did many good deeds for the people.
She only disappeared after unifying the Faith Realm.

As for where she went? No one knew.

But Bryson believed that the Goddess Zaqiel went to the other side of the mainland, created a small town, and spent the rest of her life over there.
He also suspected that the Magewind City's rise had something to do with her!
'Magewind City... Nature Magic... The mysterious plant in the pocket dimension... Is it one of Goddess Nyara's schemes? Does that mysterious plant have a connection with Goddess Zaqiel? Maybe that mysterious plant is the newborn Goddess Zaqiel?' He felt goosebumps all of a sudden.
'Mother Nature... Is she the one whom Margwind City scholars and Druids were worshipping all this time? What is the role of Melody in this?' As he connected the links, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
'Haa, I thought there are no deep schemes in this world. Damn you, Nyara!' He cursed inwardly and decided to read the remaining memories.
It was mostly about what happened after Goddess Zaqiel left the Fallen Empire to the other side of the continent.
'Because of greed and lust for power, Goddess Zaqiel's beloved disciples fought for the throne and broke the Fallen Empire into three Dynasties.'
'Two centuries later, those Dynasties also further broke into pieces and became 12 small kingdoms...'
Even though the Fallen Empire broke as Goddess Zaqiel had predicted, they remained together during tough times and even helped each other.
No large-scale war happened for more than two centuries.
But that soon ended when a shocking earthquake appeared out of nowhere and gave birth to bizarre abyssal rifts.
Then, hordes of demonic creatures and demons emerged from the abyssal rifts and invaded the mainland.
Upon facing such an unexpected situation, the twelve small kingdoms united together and fought against the Demons and the demonic creatures to save humanity.
A large-scale war happened, and that war forced humanity to lose almost half of its population. If not for the help from the Divine Beasts that resided deep in the western Forest, the whole Faith Realm would've turned into a Demons territory by now.

Although the small kingdoms managed to repel those hordes of Demons and sent them back to the Abyssal Rifts, the loss on everyone's side was too huge.
'But they neglected another problem at that time. It was the scattered demonic beasts... Although the Demons returned to the Abyss, the demonic beasts like imps, goblins, and kobolds spread across the continent and started troubling the mortals.'
For the next three centuries, the small kingdoms focused their full attention on strengthening their defense and carried out countless expenditures to kill the remnant demonic beasts.
But what they didn't expect was that the abyssal rift remained in the Faith Plane, formed a connection with the Abyss itself, and continuously spawned demonic beasts into the Faith Realm.
At the same time, many demon worshipers and cults started to appear everywhere.
Some nobles who belonged to Fallen Empire also got tempted by the demons and started worshipping a foreign deity using Goddess Zaqiel's name!
That's how the Light Magic came into existence in this world.
After some decades, Light Church tried to creature rift among the kingdoms and built the thirteenth kingdom called 'Light Kingdom.'
Then, they used Goddess Zaqiel's name to build churches everywhere and even formed a 'Light Council' under their supervision.
At the same time, Demon Sorcerers, Elemental Sorcerers, and evil cult organizations also appeared everywhere in this plane.
Although the root evil managed to enter all parts of the mainland, their main obstacle also arrived.
It appeared in the form of 'Luck' or 'Misfortune.'
The first unluckiness started when the Light Church got a hold of people's hearts and was about to reunite the broken Fallen Empire.
The Nightmare Being invaded the Holy See and ruined their plan.
'Well, I didn't expect such a twist at all. Whether this part of history is true or false, I can vaguely understand the situation of this Faith Realm now..' Charles muttered inwardly and continued to read the rest of the memories for the next few minutes.
