Chapter 5

In front of the 1000 level seron dungeon gate, Alkynorus told Emperor Quelle that she was framed by Emperor Granel, who at that time was still at the level of the early stage god king tier 20.

At that time, Alkynorus was invited to attend a banquet at the Granel royal palace that had just been established in the skylands of Gloxinia. The banquet was only attended by the kings of the small kingdoms.

At first, the banquet seemed perfectly normal.

Alkynorus, among the celestial gods and goddesses of Gloxinia was known as the Goddess Alkyna. She was a beautiful, melodious-voiced goddess.

There were numerous celestial gods of Gloxinia adored her beauty and There were numerous goddesses felt jealous of her.

One of them was Goddess Eaurise, the wife of King Granel.

At that time, Goddess Eaurise introduced Goddess Alkyna to Prince Lecit from the kingdom of Prunus, which is now part of the Granel empire. Prince Lecit attended the banquet as a representative of the kingdom of Prunus, as the King was unable to come.

The introductions took place in a special dining room for special royal guests.

There were only three people in the dining room. Prince Lecit, Goddess Eaurise, and Goddess Alkyna. While Goddess Alkyna was busy chatting with Prince Lecit, Goddess Eaurise secretly tore off a bit of the sleeve wing of Goddess Alkyna's dress with a wind-cutting finger technique.

"I'm going out for a moment, you two please enjoy this simple banquet." said Goddess Eaurise to Goddess Alkyna and Prince Lecit.

"Where are you going? Please accompany me here, I feel nervous." said Goddess Alkyna to Goddess Eaurise in a whispered tone.

Goddess Eaurise only replied with a smile, then she just left.

The goddess Alkyna endured her nervousness by continuing to consume the large meal in front of her. She continued to consume, unaware of the sleeping flower powder sprinkled inside.

After a while, the goddess Alkyna fell asleep on the dining table.

Prince Lecit looked at the cute face of the goddess Alkyna who was fast asleep in front of him.

Prince Lecit took off his cloak, and used it as a blanket to cover her body.

Prince Lecit continued to look at the goddess Alkyna's face with a cheerful gaze.

"How beautiful!" Before he could finish his compliment to the goddess Alkyna, Prince Lecit's body was suddenly struck by an internal force attack, causing him to fall to the ground.

Bruakkk!!!

"Cough! Cough! Cough!" Prince Lecit coughed, suffering from serious internal injuries.

With slightly blurred vision, Prince Lecit saw the feet of a Goddess standing right in front of his eyes. Goddess Eaurise's feet.

Goddess Eaurise looked at Goddess Alkyna who was still fast asleep at the dining table. Then she turned her gaze towards Prince Lecit who was lying limp on the floor.

Goddess Eaurise took out a long sword, and she plunged the long sword right into the back of Prince Lecit's head, all the way to his forehead. The position where his life energy crystal was located. Prince Lecit was killed instantly.

"My plan worked perfectly." said Goddess Eurise with a satisfied smile.

Goddess Eaurise left the room without any feelings of guilt.

A few moments later Goddess Alkyna woke up.

"Kyaaaaaaaa!" GoddessAlkyna screamed hysterically in fear.

She was shocked to see Prince Lecit, who had died horribly in front of her.

The invited guests arrived. They were shocked and couldn't believe what they were seeing. Seeing Prince Lecit's lifeless body in such a tragic condition.

The Gods and Goddesses wondered.

Who was the culprit?

Some Gods suspected that Goddess Alkyna was the culprit. But they were only guessing in doubt.

King Granel summoned special enquiry soldiers to investigate this big case. During the investigation, a soldier found pieces of dress cloth near the victim's body. The cloth dress belonged to Goddess Alkyna.

Goddess Alkyna was even more shocked, and wondered to herself.

"How did that happen? Why is this happening to me? What's really going on here?"

"Wait!" Goddess Alkyna racked her brains. "Earlier I was with the Prince and Sis Eurise eating together in this room. Then Sis Eurise left, and I ate a lot and fell asleep. Then..."

"Goddess Alkyna!"

"Goddess Alkyna!"

"Goddess Alkyna!"

A fat king named King Fisci tried to call out the name of the goddess Alkyna.

"Eh?" Goddess Alkyna replied feeling a little surprised. "Forgive me, Your Majesty King Fisci. I didn't realise that you were calling me."

"It's okay. It's just something I want to ask you. You see, Goddess, I and the audience have witnessed that Goddess Alkyna was the first person to see the victim in this room. Plus, there was a report from the soldiers who reported that they found evidence in the form of pieces of GoddessAlkyna's dress near the victim's body. To be honest, we don't dare to jump to conclusions about this murder case. However, we need an explanation and evidence from Goddess Alkyna, that Goddess Alkyna is not the perpetrator of this gruesome murder!" said King Fisci.

Goddess Eaurise, who was in the middle of the invited guests, smiled with satisfaction at the scene unfolding before her eyes.

"Goddess Alkyna, you can't do anything now." said Goddess Eaurise to herself.

Goddess Alkyna tried to be calm and think clearly.

A few moments later she remembered the unique ability she learnt from her friend who was a fellow sacred animal in the plains of Gloxinia.

Time and space memory technique. A technique that utilises the dimension of space to show events that have passed. Technique by making the energy particles of molecular and large-sized living things in the surrounding area as a source of information in the form of a picture of real events that have occurred.

"With the help of all kinds of living elements in this room, I will use my power to see what really happened." Goddess Alkyna said to the Gods and Goddesses present at the murder scene.

"Time and space dimension Memory technique!"

In an instant, the condition of the room changed.

All the Gods and Goddesses who were in the room witnessed the condition of the dining room before the murder incident.

In the room, they saw the figure of Prince Lecit who was having a pleasant conversation with Goddess Eaurise and Goddess Alkyna while enjoying the delicious dishes served on the dining table.

In the scene, Goddess Alkyna and King Granel caught a glimpse of Goddess Eaurise's finger cutting the wings of Goddess Alkyna's dress.

From that fleeting scene, King Granel instantly knew that the major incident that had just occurred was his wife's doing.

"If the Gods and Goddesses know, then all my struggles will be in vain." muttered King Granel. "I must stop Goddess Alkyna before things get complicated!"

King Granel was quick to think. He tried to find a way to cover up the mistake that had been made by the goddess Eaurise.

"Destruction of evidence, stopping the process of finding evidence of the truth being carried out by Goddess Alkynia. That's the only way I can do it for now." thought King Granel.

King Granel took out a small insect spirit that was the incarnation of a sleeping demon. Then he channelled his spiritual energy into the body of the little insect spirit that was the incarnation of the sleep demon so that the effect of the sleeping power produced would be even stronger.

The little insect spirit flew up and entered the Goddess Alkyna's brain.

"Ugh! This attack! The power of this attack! King Gra....aaa's energy attack..." said Goddess Alkyna before Goddess Alkyna's soul finally fell into a deep sleep under the control of the sleep demon spirit.

Dughhh!

Goddess Alkynia's body fell to the ground unconscious.

A moment later, Goddess Alkyna's body slowly changed, transforming back into her original form as the sacred animal of the Gloxinia plains, Alkynorus.

"It's really unexpected. I didn't expect that your original form was a sacred animal." King Granel said to himself.

"What? It turned out to be a demon? Unbelievable! How is that possible?" reacted one of the divine kings, as he saw Goddess Alkyna's form change to that of the sacred animal Alkynorus.

"How disgusting." said a princess from one of the God's kingdoms.

"Huekkk! I regret ever falling in love with her." said a prince.

Seeing the reaction of the Gods who seemed to dislike Goddess Alkyna's origin, King Granel took this opportunity to make the gods and goddesses truly believe that the murderer of Prince Lecit was a creature they called a demon.

King Granel injected evil energy into Alkynorus' body.

In the state of a soul that was still asleep, Alkynorus' body woke up as a savage and uncontrollable holy animal.

Seeing the savage and uncontrollable figure of Alkynorus, the invited guests further believed that the sacred animal in front of them was the one who killed the prince.

"Why are you all silent? Someone! Come here and kill her! " said an invited guest who was panicking in fear.

Several experienced gods of war came forward and tried to tame Alkynorus. But what the heck, the level of power affected everything. Alkynorus, who had reached the queen goddess stage tier 17 or commonly referred to as the early stage, was not easy to tame by the middle stage gods of war who had only reached tier 71 to the peak stage tier 98.

The group of gods of war were severely injured and tried to save themselves.

With full falseness, King Granel stepped forward as a hero in the midst of the chaos he had created.

"All of you stand down, let me handle this thing!"

Alkynorus, who was under the control of evil energy, flew at the palace soldiers who were trying to escape.

Just as Alkynorus was about to tear apart the bodies of the palace soldiers, King Granel suddenly arrived and struck Alkynorus on the neck with the hilt of his spear.

Alkynorus' body bounced off and slammed into the wall, until the sturdy wall was reduced to rubble.

Alkynorus got up, spouting a fireball from his mouth, shooting the fireball towards King Granel.

King Granel blocked the fireball with the tip of a spear, and he moved very quickly to deliver a spear thrust attack towards Alkynorus.

Alkynorus managed to dodge King Granel's spear attack.

The Gods and Goddesses were furious at the sight of Alkynorus continually dodging attacks.

"King Granel, I will help you!" said King Fisci, offering his power to King Granel.

"Root field! entangle!" King Fisci used the root entanglement technique to entangle Alkynorus' legs.

Both of Alkynorus' feet were entangled inside the root field.

Alkynorus tried to break free. But unfortunately, his efforts were stopped by King Granel's cunning with his blind attacks.

"Haaaaaaa!!!" King Granel continuously attacked Alkynorus' body repeatedly.

Until finally, Alkynorus' body fell helplessly.

Alkynorus fell face down on a field of thorny roots. His body was covered in wounds, his legs still tightly bound in the roots that contained the power of the divine king.

The roots moved, wrapping around Alkynorus' body and entangling tightly until the thorns pierced into the flesh.

"Kill her! Kill her! Kill the demon!" cried the Gods and Goddesses.

"Calm down my friends, I have a better idea than that." said King Granel trying to calm the guests.

"What is your idea?" asked one of the guests.

"..." King Granel ignored the question he had just asked.

"Are you going to torture her first and then kill her?" asked one of the Princes.

King Granel responded to the prince's question. "Torturing her? Hmmm... you could say that. I will torture him with the most painful tortures. The severest torture this Gloxinia sky has ever seen."

"Fine, then I agree." replied the prince. Then the prince shouted in support "Long live King Granel! Long live King Granel!"

"We agree too! Long live King Granel! Long live King Granel!" The gods joined in with their support.

"Starting today, how about we give King Granel the title of hero for his great service." King Fisci made a proposal.

"Agreed!!!" replied the Gods and Goddesses.

From then on, King Granel was honoured with the hero title.

"By the way, what are you doing in this place, son of a sword knight?" asked Goddess Alkyna to Emperor Quelle.

"It's a long story, but the point... my purpose in coming to this place is to save my wife. I think, that old fart locked my wife up in this place."

Goddess Alkyna was quite surprised to hear that.

"What a barbaric thing that demon did! I hate him even more! Alright son of a sword knight, I will help you rescue your wife from the hands of that barbaric demon!"

Emperor Quelle was comforted by the response that Goddess Alkyna gave him.

"Thank you goddess."
