"Because of this, Lady Babalon is extremely difficult to kill. The church has several recorded sieges, but in the end, she escaped each time by sacrificing to the Divine in exchange for powerful divine grace."
Upon hearing Shabelle say this, Perfikot put down the document in her hand and asked a question that puzzled her greatly: "Do the Divine still exist in this world?"
If others were to ask this question, Shabelle would definitely make them take a round trip to the church's Judgement Court to pay the price for their blasphemous words.
But Perfikot's inquiry made Shabelle respond tactfully: "If you mean the gods of the mythological era, they no longer walk this world and may even have fallen, but that doesn't mean the sects that believe in these Divine cannot receive divine grace."
"Hmm? The Divine have fallen, yet they can still receive divine grace?" Perfikot was greatly surprised, as her knowledge of the Divine was indeed lacking.
