After we stole everything from the pirates I leave the slaves we took in Lilian, Irius, and Irina's hands to take care of them in a separate place in the city, and I asked Lilith to check them out to see if there are any that don't deserve our help.

After Diana's brother left and she told me about the message he brought, I let Marcos and his crew take over the ship to leave this continent while I went to talk to Vanessa to find out more about this Champion of the Gods thing.

I found Vanessa in one of the rooms reading a book, I went to her with Diana as this subject is important to her.

I let Diana explain to Vanessa what she had already told me before I started to clear up my doubts.

"Congratulations, Diana." (Vanessa)

"I knew you had great potential, but I didn't imagine it was to the extent that the God of Wolves was paying attention to you." (Vanessa)

"Thanks, but I still don't know what to do..." (Diana)

"That's why we're here, we want to ask if you know more about the Champions of the Gods." (I)

"I know, there are three types of very special titles in this world which are Saint, Hero, and Champion." (Vanessa)

"I'm going to explain the three so you can understand how they are different and at the same time complement each other." (Vanessa)

"A Saint carries the will of his God within himself, in other words, he must be the image of his God in the world and must be respected as such." (Vanessa)

"A Saint has the responsibility to guide the believers of his god and to be the one who transmits his will in the world, that's the main, the other responsibilities can vary depending on the God." (Vanessa)

"A Hero very different from a Saint must be short of being a symbol, one can become a Hero in two ways, the first is by recognizing people and the second is by recognizing a God." (Vanessa)

"Heroes are symbols of ideals, they inspire people with their actions, their lives are like a sun illuminating the darkness and bringing hope." (Vanessa)

"Heroes must have strong ideals and a determined heart, and they all have great charisma." (Vanessa)

"Heroes who have been chosen by one or more Gods must be those who truly believe in and follow the ideals of those Gods, so they become a symbol of those ideals." (Vanessa)

With Vanessa explaining I'm getting it, to be honest, I was wondering what the difference between a Saint and a Champion was, but now that she's talked about Heroes, I must say I started to understand why these titles are so special.It must be very difficult to achieve such strange requirements.

"Champions on the other hand are the representation of the power of the Gods in the world, their responsibility is to defend the religion of the God they represent or destroy anything that goes against that God." (Vanessa)

"In other words, we can say that a Saint is the will of a God, a Hero is a Symbol of ideals of a God or not, and a Champion is the power of a God." (Vanessa)

"Did you two understand?" (Vanessa)

I look at Diana beside me who seems to be mulling over everything she's heard.

"I think I understand." (Diana)

"I understand, that means Diana is going to get a lot stronger, right?" (I)

"Her potential is certainly going to be immense, maybe she won't even encounter a growth barrier again for the rest of her life, but she won't have a huge power increase." (Vanessa)

"But you said yourself that a Champion represents the Power of a God." (I)

"And they are, but not in the way you're thinking, Father." (Vanessa)

"A person's body would not be able to withstand the power of a God." (Vanessa)

"By the power of a God, I meant that you will receive jobs, Blessings, titles, and abilities from the God who will be Champion, but you will still have to grow by yourself to prove yourself worthy of that power." (Vanessa)

"But if Diana becomes a Champion, then will she have to leave?" (I)

With my words, Diana who had her eyes closed thinking about everything she had heard so far, opens her eyes while looking at Vanessa seriously waiting for her answer.

"Of course not, a champion will feel when he needs to be somewhere, he can also receive requests, but he who decides whether to go or not, think that a champion is similar to a mix of a general and an adventurer." (Vanessa)

"Diana will have the freedom to go wherever she wants outside of the moments that her presence is necessary, which I must say will be few since they would have to be extreme situations, otherwise she can go wherever she wants." (Vanessa)"Besides, when necessary, we can go with Diana, she doesn't need to be alone." (Vanessa)

"So basically she's going to gain great power with almost no responsibility?" (I)

"Yes, but the little responsibility she will have will be in situations that few will dare face, besides she can be hunted by those who are against her God, but the same goes for a Saint." (Vanessa)

Sigh

I hadn't noticed until I sighed when I was worried and scared at the very thought of Diana leaving, but after listening to what Vanessa said I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off of me.

When I looked at Diana I could see a glint in her eyes, it looks like she already knows what to do.

"Looks like you've already made your decision, right?" (I)

"Yes, thank you so much for telling me so much about these things, it brings me such a relief to know that I can stay here even if I decide to accept being a Fenrir God Champion." (Diana)

"My mother has always been a Priestess of the God Fenrir and she was the one who asked my brother to bring this news to me, this is a great honor for me and I would be happy to accept it if you allow it, master." (Diana)

"If that is your true desire then I will always support you, and if you ever need to fulfill your responsibilities then I will be there to help you." (I)

Diana with a big smile jumps on me with her big body crushing me to her chest as Vanessa tries to save me before choking as I can't breathe.

Toc Toc Toc

Vanessa manages to save me when Diana is distracted by the knock on the door, after she saw that I had run away from her embrace and was lying on the floor while breathing heavily she goes to open the door showing that it was Carla.

"Sorry if I'm interrupting something, but I thought you'd like to say goodbye one last time." (Carla)

"..." (I/Vanessa/Diana)

We don't understand what Carla means by that, but we still follow her to the deck of the ship where she points to the horizon where we see a small silhouette that I can't identify.

"I see, soon we won't be able to see the Morror Continent anymore, this is our last view of it." (Vanessa)

When I understood what Vanessa had said, I'm mesmerized seeing that silhouette so far away, the memories of everything we've lived in this world running through my head, meanwhile the others in my group come one by one to the deck.

Everyone was looking in the same direction, some were saying their silent goodbyes to this continent while others were waving to this continent one last time.

I silently jump to the top of the ship and bow in gratitude for everything I've lived on this continent, before getting up and watching as that silhouette disappears into the horizon.

"Farewell, Morror Continent..." (I)
