The Gods I've meet so far might be the Chief Gods of Creation, the ones that originally appeared and created Arcadia, wherever they came from is not something I know though.

However, they are the chiefs, Hephaestus existence, which I had no idea of until recently already revealed to me that they're keeping a lot of secrets regarding the rest of the Gods.

The Blacksmith God's legacy and his existence most likely means this world has many more Gods around, although much weaker than the chief gods, they're gods, nonetheless.

But that also means, most likely… that the majority had perished like Hephaestus. Which is quite sad, indeed…

No! I can't just give up on them so easily! There's no way there are no gods somewhere, right? I just have to ask and look for them.

This whole Verdant Green Domain thing might be related with other Gods, it was even mentioned in the Skill Description about "Lesser Gods"!

So anyways… back to Level 10 Spells, there was [Divine Nature's Gift] and [Verdant Green Domain Connection: Gaia's Emerald Sword].

The first one seems to work passively once I activate it. Apparently, it makes Nature gift me something from time to time.

It can be anything from food, materials, or even spells and skills! It has no limits, but it is all random, and it depends in both Luck and also on my Domain and Forest connected to the Heart of the Forest.

It is interesting, but I can't really say anything else than that… We'll see how it works eventually. They're gifts at the end of the day; I shouldn't expect anything nor ask for anything either.

Lastly, the long-named Spell can't be used right now… I have yet to create a proper "commuted connection" with the Great Verdant Green Domain, but this skill evolving like this means it has "invited me".

So whatever it is, I have to somehow go there first… I would gladly do so, but I am quite busy right now, so I'll leave it for later.

Right now, we finally arrived back at Ambil's property, the Divine Ward had worked excellently and has protected the entire place well.

"We're finally back." Ambil sighed in relief. "Alright, let's go to the Smithy down there right away, that Quest or whatever should be done by now."

"Yep, let's go!" I couldn't easily mask my excitement.

We moved to the stairs leading to the underground with my friends, while Angelina decided to split with her party again, deciding to progress on their own Class Quests.

"Hey, are you sure you want to participate in that annoying contest? You really don't have to, Planta." Ambil said, as he moved downstairs.

"Oh, you mean the one that the King talked about?" I asked. "I know it was more for you, but I also want to show off what I can do to the rest of the people here… I know that not every person really knows that demi-humans are talented at all, so I want to show off! Acorn and Brisingra will join us too, so they won't easily use the excuse of us being "just players and therefore different"…"

"So we're participating too? Yipee!" Acorn was happy, he didn't even ask if he could participate before, so I assumed he would do so eventually.

"M-Me? Why me though?" Brisingra asked, she seemed slightly scared. "I am okay at Blacksmithing but…"

"You're okay?" Laughed Ambil. "You've got both talent and determination, and your bloodline favors you greatly, Brisingra, I had no idea you were the actual princess of the Dwarven Kingdom, but that does makes sense now, seeing how talented you've been."

"I-I am?" Brisingra was shocked.

"Of course you are! Be more confident in yourself, girl." Ambil sighed. "And, anyways, Planta… Ugh, I guess I can't convince you otherwise, huh?"

"Yeah, I'll be participating. It will also be a great opportunity to gain some fame with more Players, so they recognize what I can do in a larger and broader scale." I said. "Before I participate in the PVP colosseum matches that will happen soon."

"Eh? You're still going to do that?" Rita asked me. "A-Are you sure?"

"We already made up our mind with Mark, right?" I asked him.

"Yeah, I will join too and do my best, even if we'll fight really high-level players, we need to bring as much attention to our cause." Said Mark. "Like that, we would be able to recruit Players for our next plan."

"Huh, you sure are a busy woman…" Ambil sighed, as we reached the depths of underground.

The dark caves greeted our sight, and at the end of the corridor, there was a large wall incrusted with red jewels and beautiful carvings.

"Here we are, once more."

Ambil sighed, as he looked at the ancient gate leading towards a mysterious ruin that he was never able to enter before.

I can't imagine dedicating a whole life to something you're not even allowed to see or enter to… And then someone random appears with that same god's legacy.

It would make sense that they would be the ones blessed by Hephaestus and not me.

Yet… for some reason I got this Subclass.

I still am not sure why but…

I'll make sure to honor the Ember family legacy.

"You're once more back, Hephaestus' Successor."

The Divine Forge Spirit materialized itself in front of us as we stepped in front of the gates.

"We helped him pay the debt." I said. "Is this enough?"

"I wonder…" The Divine Forge Spirit smiled, and suddenly…

Ding!

[You've Completed the [Special Subclass Quest] related to the current [Quest Chain]: [Help the Ember Family Smithy Increase Their Sales!]

[Not only did you managed to triple, quadruple, or even multiply the sales by over ten, but you helped Ambil pay his debt and regain his reputation, keeping his Smithy and even all the things given to him.]

[The Divine Forge Spirit is pleased for what you've done, and has decided to reward you…]
