The front gate had become ruins.
The forceful rebuke had left the buildings ahead looking as though they had been swept away by a shockwave.
Yet the believers kneeling devoutly on the ground felt no fear beyond their shock, only faith from the depths of their hearts.
Because they knew that a deity would not harm his devout believers!
The deity had protected them!
Under the Dragon's Breath, beneath Deity's Power that could have buried the entire town in an instant, not one of them had been injured. On the contrary, their illnesses and wounds had instantly healed, and their physical condition had reached its fullest peak.
This was Deity's Protection.
And also Deity's Blessing.
The building whose front gate had become ruins gradually returned to its original state under the blessing of an invisible force.
The things that had been reduced to ashes by the deity's rebuke were slowly restored.
The believers spared no effort in voicing their reverence, frenzied and fervent.
"Panshen Supreme! Might and Defense Supreme!"
"May Our Lord's Radiance Last Forever!"
In stark contrast to them were the three dragonkin, trembling all over, their minds blank and unable to control themselves.
The dragons, the source of the noble bloodline they had always been so proud of, had not even been able to withstand a single rebuke from the deity.
Dragons.
Those supreme and invincible incarnations of bloodlines had been like maggots before the deity, utterly incapable of resistance.
They could only grovel and beg the deity to spare their lives.
The entire dragon race had been cursed to remain forever silent because of their mistaken choice!
In that instant, the noble hearts of the three dragonkin were utterly shattered.
Even the dragons' sincere surrender had failed to earn the deity's mercy.
What right did they have?
