Chapter 1001 Akasha
Inside the dim tomb, Vanya huddled in the corner, staring straight at the holy book on the ground in front of her. She was so frightened that she even had difficulty breathing. It was not easy for her to suppress her restless heart, but her anxiety and worry remained.
After knowing that she had received divine revelation from a foreign god, Vanya briefly thought about turning herself in to the nearby Glowing Church, or escaping immediately, but then she immediately slapped her face and suppressed these thoughts.
"No, no, calm down, Vanya, calm down! If you turn yourself in, you will definitely have to go to the court. There will be no result if you go in. The crime of apostasy is too serious. The chief judge will not reduce the sentence much just because of the surrender. If I just leave now, there will only be a pile of heretics and the bodies of other team members. If I am missing, I will definitely be considered as a heretic and a conspiracy to plan this murder. I will be hunted down by the execution squad all over the world... I will never be able to live in peace..."
Vanya analyzed her current situation and found that she could neither surrender herself nor run away. The safest approach seemed to be to pretend that nothing had happened and go to the church, keeping the fact that she had received revelations from the pagan gods a secret.
Of course, not only would he have to keep it a secret from himself, the pagan god would also have to keep it a secret from him. Moreover, he was not sure whether doing so would anger the pagan god.
The revelation given by God to believers is a great blessing, and some may even be considered as those favored by God. If one receives divine revelation but completely ignores the God who gave the blessing, and returns to the church as if nothing happened, one may incur the wrath of God!
Although it is not a foreign god, it is still a god! It is also an existence that cannot be provoked. Moreover, the other party has really helped her. Although she does not know what kind of god the other party is, Vanya does not want to cause his dissatisfaction. If the other party forces her to join the pagan religion that believes in him, Vanya can do nothing.
"Huh... Anyway, let's go communicate first."
With a nervous mood, Vanya picked up the holy book on the ground again, and continued to write on it.
"Excuse me...Unknown Lord, do you have any special needs?"
…
"need?"
Looking at the words appearing in the book, Dorothy scratched her head, thinking that she didn't even know the other party's true situation yet, and she didn't know what to ask for, so she picked up the pen and wrote it down.
“Not available yet.”
…
"No... Does that mean that I have not been forced to join His church? That's right. I can continue to ask."
Looking at the response in the holy book, Vanya continued to write on it while thinking this.
"Excuse me, unknown Lord, can I return to the church next?"
Watching the written words disappear, Vanya waited for a moment, and then the response appeared immediately.
"No problem."
Seeing this response, Vanya was delighted for a moment. This meant that her going to the church would not cause its dissatisfaction. As long as she was careful not to reveal the fact that she had received divine revelation from a foreign god, she could still be an ordinary nun in the history department and continue to live the same life as before. This was the perfect thing!
Although I don’t know who this alien god is, I feel that he is pretty good. He should not be an evil god.
'It seems that even if I continue to be a Sister of Radiance, I must always remember this person's grace. By the way, it is best to ask for his name. If I can be sure which alien god this is, I will also be able to understand his taboos and not violate them.
While thinking this, Vanya continued to write.
"May I ask the great Lord, what is your name?"
…
"Honorable Name? What the hell is that? The name of a god? No... the honorable name sounds like a long list of descriptions of a god..." Looking at the information appearing on the navigation log in front of her, Dorothy remembered that when she was learning to read in the church, she had recited the honorable name of Our Lady of Radiance.
The other party thinks that he is a certain god, so as a god, he must have a name, even if he is a fake god relying on the system... But the name is so long that I can't think of it for the time being.
With this thought in mind, Dorothy pondered the nature of the system, and then picked up her pen and wrote down some simple words on the page to deal with it.
"Akasha"
…
“…Akasha…”
On the floor of the tomb, Vanya was confused for a moment as she looked at the words that appeared in the book. After reading it in several different spelling methods, her confusion became even heavier.
“Akasha… This is a name I’ve never heard of. No… This sounds like a name, but it doesn’t look like a name…”
Vanya was confused and thought that generally speaking, honorific names were words that described gods and could be used to understand the nature of gods. For example, the Savior of Radiance, Our Lady of Mercy, the Holy Mother of Judgment, Mother of the Cup, Gluttonous Wolf, Queen of the Black Spider, and so on...
The complete form of the honorific name in prayer is more like a series of adjectives, which can more accurately describe and praise the power of the deity.
As for this Akasha... Vanya had no idea what it meant. It didn't seem like a name, nor did it seem like a specific word. She was completely confused after reading it.
"Could it be that... this is a language I don't know, transliterated into the Plit language? I don't know that language, so I don't understand its meaning?"
"To use a language I don't understand as a name... Could it be... that this Lord is a god from a lost civilization?"
Vanya thought like this. As a student of classics and history, she naturally thought in this direction when she saw an incomprehensible name.
"Well... never mind, I'll just thank you first..."
Then, after Vanya wrote a few sincere words of thanks to God on the book, she closed the holy book and pinned it to the leather buckle around her waist. Then, after glancing at the scene in front of her, she let out a long sigh of relief.
"Now I have to go to the nearby telegraph office to send a telegram to ask for help. God bless, I hope they will believe me when the time comes."
Vanya prayed as usual, but after she finished praying, she felt something was wrong. She was not sure whether the "Lord" she had just prayed to was the Saints of Light or the mysterious god.
Thinking of this, Vanya found that it might be a little difficult for her to completely return to the life of an ordinary nun.
…
"call……"
Sitting at the desk, Dorothy breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the message sent by the believer. She thought that in a sense, she had a new source of intelligence or secrets. Maybe she wouldn't have to spend money to ask Aldridge for everything in the future.
However, this source is not very reliable now. After all, the other party regards himself as a god, and it is impossible for a god to ask believers for all kinds of basic knowledge, so it is necessary to think of a more advanced communication method before obtaining information from the other party.
"Akasha... I think people in this world probably don't know this word."
Dorothy murmured. The word Akasha was a Sanskrit word from Dorothy's original world, which roughly meant ether. When Dorothy chose this name, she was thinking of the Akashic Records.
Like the Rosicrucian, this is actually a concept that exists in the mysticism of Dorothy's previous life. Roughly speaking, it is the combination of all information in a higher dimension that transcends time and space. It is the ultimate library that stores all information and has also appeared in many games, movies, and animation works.
Dorothy named her system because it was related to information.
However, Akasha alone doesn't seem like the name of God. Perhaps I can complete the honorific name when I feel like it one day.
