The Heavenly Mountain was the highest place in the outer realms. It was the home of the gods of order and goodness. The gods residing in this realm were considered to be among the most benevolent in the minds of mortals.
Among the gods of the good faction, the greatest and most glorious one was the Goddess of Morning.

The Goddess of Morning’s divine kingdom was called the ‘Fortress of Dawn’. It was located at the center of the Heavenly Mountain, which was a realm always shrouded in the glory of morning.
This was the place that all evil gods loathed and demons feared.
Fortunately, as Louie belonged to the neutral faction, the pressure of the light in the territory did not do him too much harm.
Louie’s incarnation turned into a golden dragon and flew to the holy mountain at the center of the divine kingdom. The Fortress of Dawn and Dragonblight were the same in that the temples of the gods were located high up in the mountains at the center of the divine kingdom with the rest of the territory below it.
However, Louie’s divine kingdom had multiple natural characteristics with almost every environment located within it. The Fortress of Dawn, on the other hand, was different. Other than the central sacred mountain, the rest was a plain shrouded in holy light. There weren’t any unique points. It was simple and plain but exuded a sublime holy color.
Louie’s incarnation quickly reached the holy mountain where the temple of the god was located. This mountain seemed to be divided into nine layers with each layer inhabited by angel-like creatures.
All the creatures and believers inside the Fortress of Dawn looked serious and proper, unlike the twisted chaos that existed in the demons of the Abyss. Unlike the realm of the chaotic good, there was beauty in the monotonous orderliness of the place, but this was definitely a place where “good” people lived.
It could be said that the Heavenly Mountain was a palace that the weak and kind longed for.
Louie flew to the top of the holy mountain where the hymns of angels could be heard. The divine emissaries came in all shapes and sizes, with even beastmen standing within the congregation.
It didn’t take long before Louie saw the magnificent sanctuary of the Fortress of Dawn, which floated in the clouds. The light was sprinkled on top of the crystal-like temple, hymns continued to be sung from within, and everything was painted with a sacred whiteness.
However, the divine authority of justice was not what Lorentia needed. What she needed were the divine authorities of noon and sunset. That way, she could obtain the full divine authority of the sun. That way, she could become the Goddess of Light and Sun, completely replacing Selune.
As a result, Selune and Lorentia were not on good terms because Lorentia had taken everything that belonged to Selune. However, Selune was helpless to do anything.
Louie, who was a close ally of the Silver Moon Goddess, ordinarily shouldn’t have anything to do with Lorentia, but this time he sorely needed her help.
“Now all the gods are aware of what is happening in the Land of the Dragons and the Astral Realm. Of course, I know what you have come for, but I’m sorry, Your Highness Louie! After all, I am a god of humans, and it’s not possible for me to make an enemy of His Highness Marzalis for you.”
The Goddess of Morning Lorentia shook her head and said regretfully.
Louie frowned. Although the answer was within expectation, it was not the one he wanted.
“Your Highness Lorentia, His Highness Marzalis presumed to provoke a war between humans and beastmen, as the Goddess of Light and Justice, would you want to watch that tragedy happen? This is inconsistent with your divine nature and divine authority, and will leave your divine authority at risk of degradation.”
Louie spoke straightforwardly and pointed to the crux of the matter. The gods of the world of San Soliel had great weaknesses, and that was that their actions needed to conform to their divine authorities. There was a high probability of their divine authorities being torn apart if they did not do so. It could even cause a shift in their factional nature.
The Goddess of Justice needed to uphold justice. This was the requirement of holding the divine authority!
It was the same for Louie. If the dragon race was in a crisis, Louie would have to go even if he had to make sacrifices. Otherwise, his divine authority would be torn apart.
As expected, Louie’s words caused Lorentia’s mood to fluctuate.
If no one had spoken to her face, she could have turned a blind eye to it. It would not bring any stain to her divine authority, but if someone spoke out in front of her but she still did not fulfill ‘justice’, then she wouldn’t be able to justify her actions to herself.
“I probably shouldn’t have met you, Your Highness Louie! But even so, it is impossible for me to help you completely because what His Highness Marzalis did is in accordance with the justice of ‘humanity’.”
