After a period of chaos and commotion, Lidas finally managed to escape from Shane’s grasp and ran to Anima’s side for cover.
"Just as I said, you’re a bad egg! You’re indeed a bad egg! Bullying me all the time! Rough! Rude!"
Lidas hid behind Anima, shouting at Shane.
"You’re still talking?"
Shane clenched his fist and gestured a couple of times, causing Lidas to shrink back behind Anima, too frightened to come out again.
"Why don’t you quiet down a bit, Lidas."
Anima spoke irritably to Lidas behind her.
Luoqi also approached Shane’s side, took his hand, and pushed his gesturing fist down.
"How is it? Is it over yet?"
Luoqi tried to change the subject on purpose.
Shane could tell that the girl seemed to heave a sigh of relief, obviously annoyed by Lidas but not daring to say or show it until she felt rescued.
Shane wanted to say, who let you end up with such a Main God?
However, he also knew that as a Blessing, Luoqi definitely didn’t want to embarrass herself or Lidas too much in front of her, so he let Luoqi have her way.
"My part is done over here."
At that moment, Shane told Luoqi the truth.
Before Luoqi could ask anything, Lidas poked her head out from behind Anima.
"Looking at you, you certainly didn’t gain much good."
Lidas made every effort to belittle Shane.
But in reality, Lidas had a feeling that Shane had come to some incredible realization.
Perhaps others hadn’t noticed, but Lidas saw that the air and demeanor around Shane had changed from before.
That natural posture that seemed to merge with the world, or rather, with the World’s Principle, made Lidas feel as if she was looking at her own Mother Goddess.
(I must be out of my mind, he’s just a Human, how could he be like the Mother Goddess?)
Lidas smiled bitterly in her heart, while also feeling a twinge of loneliness.
One other person shared Lidas’s feelings.
That was Nadura, who became one with nature.
Nadura looked at Shane with incredulous surprise.
As the Nature Goddess, Nadura was most sensitive to the changes in Shane.
Let alone anything else, the aura emanating from Shane that made one irresistibly want to draw closer, at this moment, seemed much more intense than before.
This amazed and astonished Nadura greatly.
In fact, Anima felt the same, didn’t she?
Her feeling wasn’t as distinct as Lidas’s or Nadura’s, but she too noticed some changes in Shane’s Life aura.
And considering the question Shane had just asked her, Anima couldn’t help but speculate boldly in her heart.
Therefore, Anima was the person most surprised by Shane’s transformation.
As for Shane, he was completely unaware of the changes in himself, hesitating only for a moment before giving Lidas’s barbs a noncommittal response.
"Well, you could say that."
Shane decided not to argue the point, or rather, he seemed unwilling to discuss the matter further.
"He’s lying, isn’t he?"
Lidas, Nadura, and Anima all had the same thought in their minds.
Even Luoqi couldn’t help but roll her eyes.
Others might not understand this person, but does Luoqi not?
Although she hadn’t deeply understood Shane, he had deeply understood her!
Having been deeply understood, Luoqi was naturally clear about Shane’s strengths and weaknesses.
Therefore, Luoqi could say for certain that since this guy was being so modest, that just proved he had gained something earth-shattering.
This made Luoqi curious and happy at the same time.
Her fiancé obtaining a great harvest was something to be delighted about for Luoqi, wasn’t it?
However, Luoqi also realized that Shane seemed not too keen on exposing this fact.
It looked like his harvest was so significant that even he was a bit frightened, hence his reluctance to let others know.
Of course, what the Goddess and the Princess thought, others did not know.
Yule then smiled at Shane.
"I believe Lord Beizut must have gained quite a reward." Yule bowed slightly to Shane, "I extend the Temple’s congratulations to you."
"Thank you, Your Holiness," Shane responded with a smile, returning Yule’s gesture.
Although the harvest from the Inner Sanctum was indeed beyond his expectations, overall, the result was certainly positive.
It was just that this widening gap made Shane a bit apprehensive, afraid that at some time, he might be erased by something like the will of the world.
Luckily, Omni Potanssen had no such will of the world; if there was, it would be the Supreme God Ominis, who had been in a Deep sleep for a thousand years and probably wouldn’t come out to trouble him.
Thinking this, Shane recalled seeing Ominis in the Inner Sanctum.
"All karma and causality, depend on fortunes... huh?"
Shane muttered to himself.
Hmm, still didn’t understand.
If he couldn’t figure it out, then he might as well not. He was just a simple man, not some cunning protagonist with almost magical wits, not made for thinking too hard and wasting brain cells.
