"I've been bothered for the past few days, so it's time for me to leave," Latane said.

"Yeah." Marlenia nodded.

The two parted very quickly, without any unnecessary words.

For Latane, this trip was like opening a shackles.

After all, missing him for a long time is also a kind of torture for him.

He rode his beloved horse and walked slowly towards his territory.

He was not pursuing speed, but just calmed down and thought about his recent experiences.

After walking for a few days, he came to a tavern.

His huge body attracted the attention of others, but they only glanced at him twice and stopped paying attention.

Of course, a few curious people came forward to ask him. They felt that Latane was like a mercenary and wanted Latane to do something for them.

Latan reluctantly refused. His dress and figure are so easy to misunderstand...

Although Latan was a demigod at this time, his reputation was not prominent. So few people can recognize him.

Latarn ordered some food and asked the clerk to feed his horse as well.

He sat alone at a table, eating and drinking quietly.

"Did you know? There is a church on the mountain near us. It is said that as long as you offer food and pray devoutly to the turtle, you can make the person you hurt forgive you."

"Oh? Is it true? My wife went back to her parents' house because of a quarrel. Maybe I should try..."

The people's gossip fell into Ratan's ears. He was also somewhat curious about this church.

So after eating, he rode on his beloved horse and walked to the top of the mountain.

However, the road to the top of the mountain was very deserted. He walked for a long time without meeting a single person.

Latan didn't care about this, he came to the top of the mountain.

Sure enough there was a dilapidated church there.

So Latarn dismounted and walked into the church alone.

The scene in the church is not as shabby as its exterior. The interior is very clean.

The bright red carpet and rows of benches give the church a sacred feel.

And at the end of the red carpet stood a thin figure.

Wearing a gold mask, he clasped his hands together and prayed forward.

In front of him lay a large turtle nearly two meters tall.

Latan looked at this scene with some curiosity.

"O turtle! I did something unforgivable to my son. How can I make up for my mistakes?" The golden mask said to the big turtle.

"...Please don't worry. Since you have a repentant heart, things will get better between you two." The big turtle spoke intermittently, as if he was reciting lines.

"...I always feel like you're not sure?" Jin Mask was a little suspicious.

"Ah! It's true... this method is not very reliable as expected." The big turtle suddenly changed the topic and looked a little guilty.

"I'm sorry, but this church is actually very ordinary. The so-called confession can make the injured forgive themselves. These are all lies."

"Everyone just made up such lies to prevent me from starving to death." said the big turtle.

"Although the number of tourists from other places has increased a lot since telling this lie, my long-term lying still makes me feel guilty."

"This generous donor, can you forgive me for my deception?" asked the big turtle.

"Pfft!" Latarn suddenly laughed out loud for some unknown reason.

Things like turtle talking are already very surprising. The most important thing is that the expression on the other person's face when he admits his mistake is so interesting.

At this time, Golden Mask was furious.

"Damn it! Why did you lie to me!" He stretched out his palm and slapped the turtle's head hard twice.

The turtle's head shrank, but in the end he did not choose to avoid it.

Latan shook his head. In his opinion, being punished for doing something wrong was not worthy of sympathy.

However, Golden Mask's next move was a bit excessive. He took away the big basin in front of the big turtle.

There are various fresh fruits in the big pot.

"These are all mine now!" Golden Mask said viciously.

"Please don't take them away...I will starve to death," said the turtle.

Latan frowned at this scene.

Although the big turtle did something wrong, he was punished by being beaten.

Taking away the other party's food is really unkind.

So when Latarn was about to pass by Golden Mask, he stretched out his hand to stop him.

"Put down the basin, that's a bit much."

"Why?" Jin Mask was a little curious.

"Because even though the other party deceived you, the crime will not lead to death." Latarn said.

"Haha, I just want him to suffer less. A person like him who can't let go of his body to deceive and wants to make a living through deception... Turtle. His final outcome will only be starvation. I just help him advance it. one time."

"After all, once a lie is exposed, it is of no use." Golden Mask said.

"It's different. He starved to death himself and you took away the food and let him starve to death are two different things. If you participate, you will be guilty."

"By stopping you, I saved both the turtle and you," Latane said.

Golden Mask stood there silently for a while.

"Okay, is this your choice? I understand."

After speaking, Golden Mask placed the basin in front of the big turtle.

The big turtle hurriedly stretched its head and began to eat. It was as if he was afraid that Golden Mask would regret it and took the basin away.

Golden Mask turned to look at Latarn.

"Sir, through your insights just now, I know that you are also a wise man. So I have some questions to ask you."

"Well, tell me." Latarn also became interested. This was the first time in his life that someone called him a wise man. He sat cross-legged on the ground, like a hill.

The golden mask also sat opposite Latarn. His thin figure was like a pile of weeds, as if a random gust of wind could blow him down.

He looked at Latarn quietly and said: "I once had a son, but in order to allow him to develop further, I gave him to a big man for adoption."

"Now that my son has become famous, do you think I should go find him now and get to know him?"

Latan glanced at the golden mask. He had a strange feeling, but he couldn't put it into words. But this question is indeed worth thinking about, he said after thinking for a while.

"So what are your intentions in looking for him? Do you want him to help you, or are you just out of guilt for him?"

"Both." Golden Mask said.

"Then don't look for it." Latarn said decisively.

"Huh? Why?" Jin Mask was a little confused.

"Because once utilitarianism is involved, your behavior of sending your children away will be no different from those businessmen's investments."

"When you give up your utilitarianism, everything you do is for your children. But as long as you have a trace of utilitarianism, everything you do is only for yourself."

"A person like you is not worthy of being a father, because you have never regarded your child as your own relative, you just regard it as a commodity that can increase in price."

The golden mask lowered his head when he heard this.

"What you said is so thorough, then I won't go looking for that child. However, in order to make up for my guilt, I hope you can help me transfer this to that child."

Golden Mask stretched out his hand and handed a pocket watch to Latan.

Latarn curled his lips and did not answer. "I'm not a mercenary. You should find a professional to handle this kind of thing."

"Ah... that's it. I understand." Golden Mask put away the pocket watch again.

Then he stood up, walked to the big turtle, and kowtowed twice to the big turtle.

"I'm sorry I just hit you."

"Ah?" The big turtle opened his mouth, and pieces of fruit fell from the corners of his mouth.

The golden mask laughed with unknown meaning, then turned and left.

Latan looked at this man's back with some emotion in his heart.

In fact, he didn't know who his father was. He asked Lenara, but Lenara didn't tell him.

So do you hate your father? Latan's eyes flashed with confusion. He didn't know how to answer this question either.

"Child, do you want to express repentance to the person who was hurt?" the big turtle said habitually.

"..." Latarn was speechless.

"I haven't hurt anyone else, and I don't need to repent. Besides, as the person just said, lies that have been exposed are of no use!"

"Oh! Then please give me some food! I'm starving!" said the big turtle.

"..." Latarn couldn't help but hold his forehead. "Didn't you eat some fruit? Isn't that enough?"

"Haha... Do you know why I am the only one in this church?"

"I don't know." Latarn shook his head.

"Because I was so good at eating, I ate up all the people's donations. The missionaries who were with me couldn't survive anymore, so they disbanded. Now I'm the only one left."

"Hahaha! You are so interesting. Do you eat meat? I have some here." Latarn pointed to his package.

"No, I'm only vegetarian."

"Then you wait, I'll go down the mountain." Latarn is not an indifferent person, and this is the first time he has seen such a spiritual turtle. He doesn't want this turtle to starve to death.

So he rode down the mountain again.

But as soon as he reached the foot of the mountain, he was stopped by a child with a runny nose.

"Big man! Someone asked me to give this to you!" The child dropped a small object and ran away. It looked like he was running slowly, as if Latarn would eat him.

Latan ignored the little kid. With a flick of his finger, the little thing on the ground was sucked into his hand.

It was a pocket watch, and it looked familiar.

"Haha, you really think of me as a mercenary!" Latan felt helpless.

"Wait! Please tell me who I should give it to!" Latarn scratched his head.

He turned the pocket watch over and over for a long time, and finally accepted it reluctantly.

If he meets that strange masked man again, he will return this thing to him.

He wandered around the town for a long time, but he didn't see the masked man.

So he didn't bother to search anymore. He went to the market and bought a lot of fruits.

He then took the fruits to the mountains and gave them to the turtle before leaving the town.

Under the shade of a tree in the distance, Golden Mask silently watched Latarn's leaving back.

He knew that he must have selfish motives for fostering Latarn, because he hoped that Lenara would be satisfied. This was indeed cruel to Ratan.

In this case, maybe not recognizing each other is the best choice.

After Latan left that town, he encountered no strange things on the road.

He returned to his territory without any problems.

When he first came here, he didn't have a good time either. He was also ostracized by the local nobles.

But the exclusion from the nobles was nothing to him.

And he is not as soft as Michaela, his strategy has always been tough.

He would beat anyone who disobeyed.

All those nobles were taken care of by him. In this way, no one in this territory dared to oppose him.

In line with the principle of not publicizing their family scandals, those nobles suppressed the incident of being beaten, which resulted in Latarn's reputation being somewhat dull.

Although the people in the territory knew that this demigod was ruling them, they all felt that the nobles had voluntarily given up their power.

Only a discerning eye can tell something is wrong.

Ratan returned to his house.

He asked a knight: "Has anything happened recently? Are those nobles causing trouble?"

"No lord!" replied the knight respectfully.

"Well, are there any powerful beasts around here that need to be dealt with?" Latan asked again.

"No, my lord. The ferocious beasts have been dealt with."

Latane showed a bored expression when he heard this.

Life without fighting is boring as hell. Maybe it was because it was too boring that he missed Marlenia.

He dismissed the knight with a wave of his hand, and then sat in a daze on his large chair.

He thought of the pocket watch, so he took it out and looked at it carefully.

This small pocket watch was no bigger than his fingernail, so it was really hard to operate.

But being bored, he was very patient at this time.

He found that the pocket watch was very well made and seemed to have many other functions.

"This thing shouldn't be cheap," Latane thought.

Latarn fiddled back and forth, not knowing what mechanism was triggered.

Then, the pocket watch suddenly emitted a burst of 3D images.

The content of the image is that a golden bird hit the glass and fainted.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Latarn was a little dumbfounded.

"Isolation! Maybe gods and humans shouldn't be on the same earth!"

"Gods will be polluted because of humans, and humans will stop developing because of gods."

"Only isolating both sides is the most correct approach."

There were bursts of voice-overs coming from the image.

Latan smiled, thinking this was a bit naive. What kind of power is needed to separate man from God?

What is the difference between something with such power and God? What god would want to lock himself up?

Soon, the video finished playing.

Then the pocket watch slowly unfolded, revealing a red light.

Latarn's heart skipped a beat because he discovered how extraordinary that thing was.

"What is this? Why does it look so like a blessing?"

Squinting, Latan confirmed that this was indeed a blessing.

But this blessing seems to be incomplete.

Latan picked it up and felt it in the palm of his hand. The moment he held the characters, he felt that his understanding of gravity magic instantly increased by several levels.

"This..." He dropped the blessing on the table in horror.

"How did you get such a powerful blessing? And its origin is not like a golden tree. It is like a blessing from other gods..."

Ratanci thought of the golden mask. "That's not a simple person. Maybe I should investigate him."

When he stood up and was about to call his men, he suddenly froze.

How could the other party give something so valuable to a stranger at will?

Only then did he realize what their conversation in that church meant.

"Asshole!" Latarn gritted his teeth in anger. He regretted why he didn't react at that time! He should catch that guy and beat him up hard!

But after getting angry, he gradually calmed down. He looked at the blessing on the table again and slowly picked it up.

There was some conflict in his heart, which was a blessing from an external god. Maybe he shouldn't accept it.

But this was also compensation given to him by his father, and he seemed to have no reason to refuse.

"Hmph! When we meet next time, I will definitely beat you to death!" Latarn poured out the blessing from his pocket watch, and he accepted the blessing with an open heart.

The moment the blessing came, he felt that his strength suddenly increased significantly.

The invisible energy around Latarn slowly dispersed, and people in the whole city felt stuffy and out of breath.

But this feeling soon disappeared, and people looked at each other, wondering what happened.

Latan clenched his fists, his expression extremely complicated.

"This blessing is not complete, I will complete it."

There are a few ideas embedded in this blessing, the clearest of which is isolation.

It hopes to use gravity to isolate the gods in the sky. This idea is a bit bold.

But Latarn thought of the stars. When the stars came, a mysterious strong man used gravity magic to freeze them.

Now Latarn has guessed who the other party is.

He couldn't help but think, if he had fought with the opponent at that time, would he have won? He is not easy to estimate.

But he soon thought that the other party had given him a blessing, so the next time the stars came, shouldn't he take action himself? Latarn's heart jumped again.

It’s just that Latarn is also very confused. Who is the alien god who gave this blessing?

Latan began to think about it in his mind, which outer god is stronger in gravity magic?

He quickly thought of the Storm King from his favorite storybook. That terrifying giant standing tall and tall.

He seems to have unparalleled gravity magic...

"So, I became a villain?" Latarn suddenly smiled bitterly.

He always wanted to be a hero, but in the end he received the blessing of a villain.

But he became more and more curious about his father's life experience.

But now he doesn't know how to find the other party.

I have missed the best time to recognize him. The other party will most likely hide and never see each other again.

However, he did not give up hope. He ordered his men to find the whereabouts of the golden mask.

After a few days passed, reports came from his subordinates.

Golden Mask is very famous in the Magic Academy. He is a very powerful professor. He mainly teaches people gravity magic.

And he is most famous for his legendary destiny magic.

It's just that this magic is too profound and few people can understand it.

After fully understanding the story of Golden Mask, Latarn also figured out why he met him as soon as he went out.

"It turns out he has been waiting for me there."

He asked his men to get the writings of the Golden Mask, and then he fell asleep after reading a few pages. He really couldn't see this thing.

Although destiny magic is also known as gravity magic, the two feel completely different to Latarn.

Just when Latan was confused, his knight informed him that it was La Ni, the Full Moon Princess of the Magic Academy, who was asking to see him.

"Huh? What is she doing here?" Latan was a little surprised, but he still received Lani.

At this time, Lani was dressed in white and had a big witch hat on her head. She looked cute and mysterious.

"Ah! Long time no see! Why have you grown so big!" Lani looked at Latan and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Haha, you really haven't changed at all." Latarn was speechless.

I remember that when we first met, Lani was also so outspoken.

"So little Lani, what do you want from me?" Latan said as he led Lani to the living room.

"Actually, it's nothing. It's just that I recently made a breakthrough in learning destiny magic. I feel that my disaster star is in this direction." Lani stuck out his tongue.

Latarn's face darkened.

"Can't you be talking about me?"

"I don't know...but it's in this direction." Lani wasn't too sure.

"By the way, Brother Latarn, will you feel disgusted when you see me? Disaster stars will hate each other." Lani blinked his cute big eyes and looked at Latarn.

Latarn was a little dumbfounded. Although this sister is weird, he doesn't hate her.

But his mouth said: "Yes! You are indeed not lovable!"

"Ah~" La Ni became a little sad.

"Stop thinking nonsense! Even if I am your disaster, will you still do anything to me?"

Lani was stunned for a moment, then nodded in agreement. I really won't do anything to my eldest brother.

"But you came at the right time this time. Do you know the Golden Mask? Can you tell me about him?" Latarn said.

"Oh~ That's a mysterious person, he looks like a villain..."

Latan ignored his sister's wonderful metaphor. Through his sister's narration, he learned more about his father.

"How is the relationship between Golden Mask and your mother? Do they have much contact?"

"Ha! Isn't my mother also your mother? Why do you say you are so outspoken? But they don't seem to have anything in common..."

"On the contrary, Golden Mask and Dean Topps are very close. The sorting magic they invented is so interesting that many people have begun to study destiny magic."

"Brother, how about I tell your fortune and see what path is suitable for you..." La Ni's little mouth kept chattering.

"Ah! You can stand up to a drama troupe by yourself!" Latarn complained a little helplessly.

But with his sister by his side, he felt that his days had become more interesting recently.

In the next few days, he took his sister to the small town to visit the big turtle.

Lani is indeed very interested in these strange things.

She had a great time chatting with the big turtle, and she even gave the big turtle the name of the Night Magician.

"Why am I called Dark Night? I'm not dark either!" asked the big turtle.

"Haha! Because I am the Queen of the Night! And you are my magician!"

"I don't know magic either..." The big turtle was a little embarrassed.

"It doesn't matter! I can teach you!" Lani was confident.

Latarn sat quietly in the corner. He looked at the two energetic faces and couldn't help but smile.

Lani sat on the back of the big turtle and began to give lectures to the other party. That scene was really funny.

"As long as you know how to use magic, others will definitely offer you more food!"

"Really? Is magic so powerful?"

"Of course! Hahahaha..." Lani smiled like a villain.

Seeing this scene, Latane couldn't help but pick up the pocket watch given by his father. He remembered that this pocket watch seemed to have a video recording function...
