I Became a Childhood Friend With the Villainous Saintess

Chapter 74: Imperial Capital, Edelmarion (2)

It was nothing new, but this world had countless gods.

Even just counting the sects actively operating in the Empire exceeded double digits.

If you included gods like Hibras, who had been forgotten or whose faith had entirely perished, it was impossible to estimate how many gods had existed throughout history.

The most renowned among them were the so-called Five Gods—gods of Light, Faith, Benevolence, Order, and War.

The sects worshiping these gods wielded significant influence.

Among them, Asirel, the god of Light, boasted the largest following and would eventually choose the female protagonist, Elise, as a saintess.

Countless gods and a myriad of sects. Despite their diversity, the scale of these sects varied greatly.

In any other world, such differences would have likely led to devastating wars. However, in this world, religious conflicts were surprisingly rare.
