Chapter 256 Internal Problems And Solutions I



She now knew that Nia, and everyone else here, had a true God backing them. A genuine God from the higher Realms, not some fakes little gods like them, who are only Deities at most.

"It\'s nothing much, there is just something I want everyone to discuss. Do you have time? Yes? Then make some." She didn\'t even wait for Nature Goddess to respond before answering herself.

"...No, I have plenty of time for you, Goddess of Death." Nature Goddess wasn\'t offended anyhow. After staying here for seven years, she knew that Nia had a childish yet brutal personality.

She would do the silliest of things, work according to intuition and even start meaningless arguments. But once caught, she\'d make your life horrible. Every action she made was calculated, and intended.

"Is that so?" Nia responded with a smile, but her tone sounded distant and disappointed. "Tsk, I won\'t have the chance to act superior if you guys are always obedient and so humble."

She finally let her true feelings out!!

Nature Goddess cursed her in her mind a thousand times. They were actually people around the same age, including David and the Beast King, yet she was abusing her authority even towards them?

Worst of all, the three of them were always her targets. As if she found it too bothersome to bully those who are of the younger generation than them. Plus, those kids were too obedient in nature.

"Anyway, call your kids to the throne room. We need to discuss a few important issues about the progression of our Empire." She said after a moment of silence.

"Yes, right away." Nature Goddess respectfully responded with a bow.

Nia frowned for once, she seemed disgusted and annoyed greatly. "And don\'t act like that, it\'s disgusting and unbefitting. Act around your age for once, geez."

She left, Nature Goddess clicked her tongue in wonder, curious how the nephew was like if the aunt was this childish. \'You... are lucky that I\'m usually calm, Nia. I should be cursing you a thousand times!!!\'

\'Do you want to be superior or you want us to be casual around you? Make up your mind, please!!" She thought as she did as she was told to. Her daughters and close aides were almost Ancient Deities too.

She sighed. She was now an Ancient Deity, a False God, rather, a False Goddess of Sky and Nature, a being with a True Law. Though she lost all her original powers, she still gained Skills that used to belong to En Caelum, including Divine Skills that affects even Gods.

She was a god nonetheless, one who was not weaker than most gods as well. And all of this, came from one young man, a god above gods, a being who descended onto the mortal world even without a Calamity.

Thus he was a being who transcended the Calamity itself!! He also gave various people the talent to become gods, transformed more than a few of them, including herself, into gods.

Such a being... was omnipotent!!!

This was not only what Nature Goddess thought, even the others thought the same. The powers that Enigma showed were too heaven defying, and Allen as his brother was seen as omnipotent as well. At most, Nigh-omnipotent.

The mortals and Deities also had their thoughts on them. The current Deities were, most of them, formed through the Providence of the false demigods around.

Like the pixie, every of the sixty or so Ancient Deities could have one thousand household members. Usually, one would be expected to choose Deities, since they already had talent and strength.

But the Ancient Deities here didn\'t work like that. As long as one contributed greatly to the Empire, or was liked by a demigod, or was talented, or even through cooking, drawing or singing, were converted to household members.

Their talents were renewed and one by one, were slowly converted into physical deities, a form of a Deity without any Divine power whatsoever. But they could later become Lesser Deities through worship.

That was not all, according to what the apostles, the false demigods and the gods say, the most Devout believers could also ascend. This made people worship the two young gods, Enigma and Allen even more.

What was better was that, they could also worship the current gods, demigods, deities and physical deities without a problem. Nia believed that Enigma and Allen would still recieve the faith nonetheless.

She realized after the people who worshipped the other gods and false demigods, supplied her with faith as well. But she was only in charge of the mortals, so she believed that the true overlords also gained something.

Anyhow, the Green River Empire was progressing really fast. There was already almost a hundred thousand extra Deities, making the total count over eight hundred thousand of them.

Just two hundred thousand short before they could become a four star Empire, through quality of Deities alone.

Nia thought as she sat with one leg over the other on her throne. Around her were seven more smaller thrones in a semi-circular formation.

Besides her, on both sides, were four thrones shorter than her throne, and that of David was included, who had a special status amongst everyone here.

Either than David, the Everlasting Gaurdian, on her left was Nature Goddess, the Sky Mother of Nature, Leon, the Bestial God King, and Gill Jr, the Constellation Prince of Fate and Destiny.

On her right was Lulu, the Aether Appstle, Krishna, the Supreme One, Kuma, the White Flash and the powerful Elven Sage, Lady Erin, who was quite the special case.

And her, the Nether Queen of all Gods, Goddess of Death, and the Realm Leader of this now small separated dimension-like region, the size of a small world.

There was also the Aether Queen of Gods, Lulu. The Supremity Queen of Gods, Krishna, and the Beatific King of Gods, Kuma. The Celestial Queen of Gods, Erin. The Bestial King of Gods, Leon. The Constell Prince of Gods, Gill Jr. The Lunar Queen of Gods, Nature Goddess. A congregation of God Rulers (Not real Gods).

"Since we are all here, how about we begin the conversation about the way forward for our Empire?" Nia said, as a sphere of darkness and death floated on her right, while the sphere of light and life floated on her left.

Above her, was also a never ending convergence of constant destruction and creation, distortion and order, creating a vivid scene of chaos.

Nia, was a goddess with four Laws after all.

"I\'m glad that all of us are here, can we begin?" Nia said as everyone quieted down for a moment, looking at her in inquisition as to why they were even here.

Either than demigods and gods, or rather, the Patrons and Regent Monarchs, there were plenty of other beings with unique positions, such as Master of the Sages, the Wizard King, Academy head masters, Merchant Kings, Songstresses and Songsters etc

All in the form of physical deities and other Deity realms. The reason they were here was a because of their great influence on the people, as well the developing faith.

"So, first, we shall speak about our progression. How do you all think we should progress our Empire?" She said, watching as everyone thought about her question.

" " " .... " " "

" " " .... " " "

" " " .... " " "

Silence dominated the soroundings as nobody wanted to speak first. Especially amongst those of lesser authority and power, as the first to speak would catch the attention of the Sovereign Ruler herself.

And that was not a good sign, especially if she found you interesting. But then again, with her personality, if the silence continues, she might as well as chase them out.

"My lady, I personally feel like we should extend our reach of influence. Even without Conquest, we still require to form relations with other nations as our region won\'t have every resource available, out there."

"Making ties with other countries and regions, we can expand our range of influence and then find a way to solve most of our industrial problems." A merchant king said after a moment of thought within the silence.

Of course, he had raised his hand and recieved affirmation from Nia before he even dared to open his mouth and speak.

"Indeed, my lady, we require various types of resources, to forge equipments, artifacts and even build things. And our World Forest is only a forest type region. We cannot have every possible resource out there."

"We currently lack even studious rocks for stable foundations, or gold and silver mines to mine our own gold and silver, to become self-sufficient in terms of currency. At this rate, we will have to rely on the sorounding kingdoms."

"The currency of the previous two Empires is not enough to create a sturdy flowing kingdom. If things continue, we might have a civil problem, as people would not want to work, if their pay is not enough."

"Even the promise of Deity Ascension might not be enough to satiate the natural desire from us mortals. Power and Divinity is not compulsory amongst all of us, after all." Added a grand forger, speaking from his own perspective as a forger.

"I also agree. There are an increasing number of Deities every year, and our population has stayed constant. We need more believers, not only for us, but for our Great Lords above. If everyone ends up as Deities, who will be there to worship us, by then?"

"And, as Deities, we need to have the authority of the Divine, we need to have the feeling of being in power and worshipped. And it cannot be found here, as everyone promotes familial love and peace between each other."

"That is why I believe we need to at least conquer a few regions, to differentiate between the status of Mortal and Deity. Some of us desire to enjoy the feeling of being above others." Added a beautiful songstress, not showing any shame at all.

And as it seems, nobody judged her. They in fact just let it be, as everyone had the right to do as they please around here, as long as it does not affect those of the Green River.

Even if they went out and slaughtered an entire region, and the reason was acceptable, nobody would judge them. That was the Tyranny of Nia, the tyranny that she wanted to spread.

"...."

Nia did not say anything and just waited for the opposing side to say their mind. If there were none, then she would choose Conquest and forming relations as a way forward.

"I reject." Said a grand alchemist. He then added his reasons, "I believe that before we go out, we must first solve our internal problems. Not everything is perfect, just because there are Rulers, rules and order, you know."

"There is still minor conflicts between the various races, as well as the greater races of gods. The is still a bit of distance between mortals and gods, and our harmony isn\'t yet stable. At least, not sya le enough to begin a conquest yet."

"This is giving our enemies a chance at damaging us from inside out... I know and understand your problems, but regardless, conquest and relations will only lead to problems for us, right now."

"We cannot conquer outsiders yet, at most, unless everyone here is a verified god. At that point, even if we did as we pleased, nobody would have anything to say to that, unless they wished for death."

"And at most, it would only take us a couple of years, maybe a thousand or ten thousand years. I am pretty sure we can hold in our desires for that much time right?" He concluded with his own rhetorical inquiry.
