The words of Queen Stuart left everyone stunned.

Pope Sajia chuckled and said:

"The distribution of the Seven Deadly Sins must be cautious, and the force most adept at resisting a singular field of sin should be the one to assimilate it."

The current choice is undoubtedly the best possible option.

If the Dragon Race were to inherit Lust, there would be no saving them.

The Dragon Race is excellent in many aspects, but they have always been criticized for losing control below the waist.

On the contrary, when one can't control below the waist, they can't remain lazy for long either.

The Titans, or to be precise, the Sword Hero, is inherently indifferent.

She rarely experiences fluctuations in emotion; the passage of time shows starkly on a Titan.

She is indeed the best candidate to resist Lust.

Sajia chose to take Greed, which seems to bear the risk of corrupting the Church.

...How to put it, if it were the Church of later times, there might indeed be that risk.

But this period is quite special.

Because now is the end of the Divine Fire Era, when the Gods still walked the continent.

For each True God Church after the deities had just ascended to the Star Realm, it is precisely the time when internal members most dutifully practice divine tenets.

This is a historical period of pure faith.

As long as you belong to the Orthodox God Alliance, you genuinely represent justice.

The influence of the Gods upon the mortal realm is greatest in this epoch.

The era of coexistence between gods and men leads inevitably to the unprecedented expansion of church power.

And the unprecedentedly expansive church... is precisely the force least short of money in this era.

Needless to say for Stuart's Elf Race.

The inherently kind fairies never lack food and clothing.

Pride and Gluttony have the least influence on them.

Only Cang, who took Envy, and Aik, who took Fury, are somewhat unsuitable.

But Cang himself is a wanderer.

He doesn't even care that he can't compete for the Divine Shooter's seat, and having Envy under his keep for just 100 years is already quite stable.

The truly problematic aspect is actually Aik's Dwarf Race.

Even Sajia felt a bit worried and asked:

"Aik, can the dwarves truly withstand Fury?"

Aik scratched his head and said:

"Why ask me, what else can we choose besides Fury?"

Everyone remained silent.

Lust...

Apart from the emotionally indifferent Sword Hero, every other race would be consumed by Lust.

Greed...

Dwarves would risk their lives to get mineral stones.

Envy...

Dwarves could argue all day over who makes better gear.

Pride...

The arrogance of dwarves is only slightly inferior to dragons; when they meet elves, they label them long-ears and toothpicks.

Gluttony...

They'd rather not hear about the Dwarf Race drinking excessively and drifting en masse.

Laziness...

They are industrious when they work and unstoppable when they slack off.

So does Aik not want to choose others?

He cannot!

Chloe was speechless as well.

"Why does it feel like your dwarves embody all five poisons?"

"How could you say that? We're not lecherous."

"Put your Dragon Scale Fiji Cup away first!"

"...Can we not bring that up again?"

"Aik, I'll relish that secret of yours for life."

The bustling "loot distribution" concluded.

That night, Chloe found the Armored Hero.

"You're taking Laziness back to the Dragon Empire?"

"Yes, I'm leaving tonight."

"...After handing over the Authority of Laziness to the Dragon Race, leave quickly."

The Armored Hero pondered, then lifted his head and said:

"Looks like the Dragon Empire is about to face an unprecedented crisis."

"If you don't leave, you might die there," Chloe said seriously, "Trust the advice from someone who comes from the future."

However, the Armored Hero chuckled lightly:

"But I don't intend to leave, and besides, don't worry, I won't die. You know, I am the strongest."

Chloe remained silent.

The Armored Hero indeed has an extremely high likelihood of being the strongest in the squad.

If the others obtain power and ascend as much as possible,

he is the one who, after obtaining power, removes the limiters of his body.

Just don't know which Dragon God this little rascal is exactly.

Could it be that God of Good Dragons, Bahamut?

But he still sighed and said:

"Anyway, I've told you the news, consider it yourself."

The last person who dared say 'I am the strongest' had already become a meme.

As they spoke, they unknowingly arrived beneath the World Tree.

Abigail was sitting there, when she saw Chloe approaching, she looked up:

"Brother, I sense you're going back to your own time."

Chloe remained silent.

He felt it unlikely he would stay until Abigail encountered a life-threatening crisis.

Or perhaps it is because he isn't there that the God of Growth and Forest would fall.

If he were present, how could he accept such an outcome?

Even if it meant burning everything to the ground to kill them all.

He ruffled Abigail's head and said:

"Don't worry, I'll handle things."

Saying that, he turned and left.

Watching Chloe's departing figure, the Armored Hero turned to look at Abigail.

"Miss Abigail, you transferred part of your Divine Power to Chloe?"

"Is there a problem?"

"Not really, just a bit moved seeing the grass ring on his wrist."

"It was my Divine Power that chose him, back then I hadn't become a deity yet."

The Armored Hero remained silent.

During their training in the Golden Land, the Hero Squad frequently saw Abigail accompanying Chloe.

Out of affection, Abigail's attitude towards them wasn't bad either.

At least, it wasn't the usual expressionless attitude.

Out of curiosity, the Armored Hero asked:

"Can I ask you something?"

"Is Chloe your 'one and only'?"

"Hmph~" Speaking of Chloe, Abigail uncharacteristically showed some emotion, "Actually, he's not suitable at all."

The Armored Hero was stunned:

"Then why do you..."

The girl lifted her head to gaze at the night sky, a genuine smile appearing on her face:

"But this is good."

"Is this good? You can't become the first in Chloe's heart."

"King of Redemption, you seem to misunderstand something," Abigail said calmly.

The Armored Hero, hearing this, was taken aback for a moment before saying:

"I'm not the King of Redemption."

"Of course, you're not yet," Abigail looked up at the moonlight, "Also, I'm not standing here because I became the first in his heart."

The girl glanced in the direction where Chloe had left, her lips curling upward:

"I'm standing here because I want to make him the first in my heart."

"..."

"He told you, didn't he? You're going back to the Dragon Empire. You might die. Have you really thought this through?"

"I have. I don't want to hide."

"Is it because you truly are a god? But even gods can fall; the Eternal Fierce Sun has fallen."

"Why are you so certain I'm a god?"

"When you were training, I noticed how quickly you mastered the Divine Power.

It's not a talent; others need time to get used to Divine Power.

But you, you simply retrieved your original strength."

The Armored Hero clicked his tongue:

"You must have noticed something unusual from other sources too?"

Abigail said calmly:

"The Akasha Record didn't originally contain your 'variable', so you are a god not belonging to this era."

"What keen senses you have. Chloe always treats you like a little girl. This habit of his might get the better of him one day."

The Armored Hero sighed deeply, then emphasized:

"And also, I'm not a god."

"Not now, at least."

"I will never embark on the path of divinity through faith."

"I understand, but 'god' is just a term, a designation for those who tread the supreme path. You belong to that group, I'm sure of it."

The Armored Hero was silent.

Finally, he laughed heartily:

"But I still have confidence in myself."

"Then there's no helping it. I've warned you about everything I needed to."

...

Location: Queen Stuart's Palace

Chloe was bantering with the Elf Queen.

"Come on, give me an Authority of Great Sin. I'm the only one without a sin, and I feel left out."

Stuart rolled her eyes and said:

"I don't believe you. You must have some sneaky plan again."

As a comrade in battle, she knew how ruthless Chloe could be when taking action.

To say the least, if the Fear Demon God had someone he wanted to kill most before dying, it would be Ke.

Whenever he used his Divine Power, the Demon God was so terrified he'd tattoo Chloe on his back.

[Diarrhea + Constipation + Intestinal Tastebuds Growth]

——The Demon God instantly turned crimson.

[Cow Tangle]

——Back then, Aik almost couldn't defend against the Demon God's charge.

[Demonic Dung Maggot Spray + Flame Magic]

——A fight full of "flavor", even the Sword Hero said, "Do we really have to win this?"

[Law of Acrophobia]

——Back then, the Demon God was still flying in the sky. Who would have thought a seemingly useless law would bring a deity down to mortals?

Can you guess why the Sword Hero standing on the ground was able to dish out such damage?

[Law of the Emperor]

——Strengthening the law with Holy Bone, forcing the charging Evil Faction enemy to kneel. To avoid kneeling, the Demon God was hard-controlled for one minute.

In summary, even Queen Stuart wouldn't want to face an opponent like Chloe.

Too treacherous.

But she also understood that Chloe had a reason for specifically seeking her for the Great Sin.

"Are you worried our plan will fail?"

"At least from my perspective, our layout hasn't succeeded, Stuart. Prepare a backup plan, I want to take Pride away first."

Stuart closed her eyes.

After a long while, she slightly parted her lips:

"Fine, you can take Pride first, but you have to wear this."

She snapped her fingers, and a rustic ring fell into her palm.

"Positioning Ring, I need to know where you are to recover Pride in case of an emergency."

"No problem."

He slipped the ring onto his finger.

...

Several days later.

The Heroic Squad temporarily parted ways.

They were to handle the matters of the Great Sin first.

The Armored Hero was the first to leave; before dawn, he flew to the Dragon Empire.

The Sword Hero left a letter for everyone, stating she wanted to return to the Titan Ancestral Land.

Aik packed his bags and, with a space full of premium ore, set off on the way home.

Sajia went to contact several leaders of the True God Church and didn't stay long.

Cang said he would wander the continent for a while, but before that, he wanted to visit the Centaur Tribe.

Chloe said he wanted to see the old captain too.

On the way to the Centaur Tribe, he remembered something and said to Cang:

"You go ahead, I need to make a visit to the Conqueror's Adventurer Group first."

He needed to promote the deputy leader of the Conqueror to leader.

Because he wasn't sure when he himself would leave.

At the Conqueror's headquarters, the deputy who had been his right-hand for years looked at him eagerly:

"Captain, I've heard about it all. You're truly amazing."
