HEROIC DEATH SYSTEM

Chapter 105: Becoming Your God (VIII)

Translator: StaringAtAStar

坎塞城作为伊帝国的首都，大陆最繁华的城市之一，聚集了众多神灵以及这些神灵的信奉者们，他们的进驻都必须获得战神和伊帝王族的允许，没有允许之外的人能够长期潜藏，无论他们是否拥有神灵庇佑，只要身处战神领域，都无法逃过战神的感知。

The city of Cannes, as the capital of the Yi Empire and one of the continent’s most prosperous cities, is home to many gods and believers. To enter, they must receive the permission of the War God and the King of the Yi Empire. For those who don’t have permission, they can hide themselves long-term. But regardless of whether they have the blessing of a god, if they enter the War God’s domain, they can’t escape the War God’s notice.

战神很少主动驱逐这些外来神灵，除非他们威胁到子民的安危。在他的神威之下，一般神灵也不敢造次。

The War God rarely takes the initiative to expel these alien gods unless they threaten the safety of his children. Most gods under his authority don’t dare to act rashly anyways.

坎塞城虽然神灵扎堆，但真正会现身的神灵却少之又少，像尚可这种主动为信奉者谋求福利的神灵更是绝无仅有。神灵只有在获得足够的供奉和诚心祈求时，才会给予相应的庇佑。他们大多没有感情，与信奉者之间的关系更像一种交易。特别是等级比较低的神灵，因为不想浪费自己的神力，对于信奉者的祈求，十次中有一次回应就不错了。

Although the city of Cannes is filled with gods, there are few gods that will actually appear, and gods like Shang Ke who actively look out for the welfare of their believers is even rarer. The gods will only give their blessings when they receive enough offerings and sincere prayers. Most of them have no emotional attachment to their believers, their relationship is more like a business transaction. Especially the lower level gods, who don’t want to waste their diving power—for them to respond to one tenth of their believers prayers is still considered quite good.

所以，战神看到尚可为戍族人东奔西走时，心中难免有些疑惑。在他的印象中，邪神从来不是那种会为他人无私奉献的博爱者。每个神灵的神性，在塑造之初便已注定，无论经历多少年都不会改变。

So when the War God saw Shang Ke running this way and that for the Yi clansmen, he still felt some inner misgivings. In his mind the Evil God was never the kind of person to selflessly help others. The divinity of a god is predestined at their formation, and won’t change no matter how many years go by.

但是他如今所见的邪神，确实与一千年前截然不同。最大的变化便是他的面具，原本凝聚邪性的面具，竟然变成真实的影射。他的内心世界，在面具上清晰呈现，坦率、乐观、快乐、容易满足……这完全不是邪神应该具备的品性。

However, the Evil God of the present is very different from that of a thousand years ago. The biggest change is his mask; originally a mask that embodied evil is now changed into one that alludes to his true feelings. His inner personality appears clearly on the mask: frank, hopeful, happy, easygoing… These are all clearly not the characteristics an Evil God should possess.

在尚可四处寻找元凶时，战神一直在暗中观察他。他是真心实意的付出，还是虚情假意的作秀，他都看得清清楚楚。

As Shang Ke searches for the hidden culprit, the War God continuously observes him. Whether he was sincerely investing himself or merely putting on a show, the War God could clearly tell the difference.

五天后，缇玛的情况越来越糟糕，而尚可也找到了暗中谋害她的人，确实如他先前所料，是参加舞会的王妃候选者之一，信奉司愈神的莲族女孩凯兰。
