Chapter 727: Section 503: Many Stories from a Small Town (Part 2)
```
Arriving back at Carterburg, all dusty and weary from the road, Malin had already heard the news of his father’s redemption. Feeling greatly relieved, Malin didn’t rush to see his father first but went to Rongma to bring over his lovers.
The old Gaiate’s achievement of Legendary status had already spread throughout the entire Western Human World these past couple of days. For the Gaiates, boasting three Legends, this was nothing short of a miracle—and indeed it was. Many outsiders didn’t know that without the Lord of Justice, the old man’s fate would have been uncertain.
But as a Legend, Gaiate’s canonization after death was an undeniable fact (he was a devout believer of the Church of the Goddess of Harvest), and that was indeed the case, so his...
Today, Malin took his family to visit his elderly father, both to show concern and because if it had not been for the God of Justice, they wouldn’t have had the chance to play the roles of filial son and caring father. By the time Malin had returned from the North two days later, his father would have been Purified.
There’s no doubt that the man who still had the face of an octopus, who had lived through a direct confrontation with the Evil God, was impressive. Malin’s father might have been a Legend, but even in his altered state, he wasn’t powerful enough to face the opponent. Malin felt that if there had been a fight, it wouldn’t have been merely a slim chance of survival for his father; he would have surely died.
For this reason, Malin felt he owed the God of Justice a favor. Even though he knew that this deity had protected Miss Sophia’s soul a long time ago (which implied that the Deity had foreseen this day from early on and deemed Gaiate beneficial to the human world, thus intervening), but... after all, it was he who had preserved Miss Sophia’s soul, allowing her to reunite with the old Gaiate at the crucial moment.
He had saved another soul from going astray, such a deity. After learning that he was a deity from another dimension summoned by a survivor of the Great Destruction Era, all of Malin’s previous views and thoughts had been thrown out the window... This must be the most beautiful and pure Good God there ever was, Malin thought.
No wonder he was desperate to summon him. If there were more gods like him, Malin wouldn’t mind believing in them. After all, they were much better than the gods Malin knew of.
