The Ultimate Fire Master of Avatar

"Um"

After listening to Donald's account of the entire incident, Kahn asked him some questions and then fell into deep thought.

Apart from preparing for the Ice Spirit Festival, the Antarctic Waterfolk have not done anything else particularly noteworthy recently. At least based on the information he has gathered from his conversation with Donak, there is indeed nothing that would offend the gods.

However, even if Donak is the chief of the Antarctic Waterfowl, it doesn't mean that he knows everything about everything in the Antarctic region.

Perhaps everything is normal within the scope of his understanding and control, but in places beyond his reach and sight, there may be a different scene altogether.

"In that case, we'll have to meet with that angry god first."

Without sufficient information, any speculation is meaningless. The only way to find out the truth is to personally confront the angry deity.

"Thank you for your help."

Donald expressed his gratitude.

The spirits were said to roam the Antarctic waters, so Donak arranged a special escort ship for the two of them to use.

"Oh, right."

Kahn suddenly said:

"Chief Donak, may I travel to the sacred site at the center of Antarctica to take a look?"

There is a sacred site at the center of Antarctica and the center of the Arctic, which are two passages connecting the realm of gods and the human world, sealed by the first generation of supernatural powers.

Although the two passages are adjacent to each other in the realm of gods, they are located at the North and South Poles in the human world. However, most people only know that there is a sacred site of the Water Good Clan at the North and South Poles, but they do not know the true face of the sacred sites.

However, in a sense, forgetting is the best form of protection.

Upon hearing Kahn mention the Holy Land, Donak suddenly paused, as if recalling something, before speaking with a serious expression:

"You mean the reason for the gods' restlessness might be related to the Holy Land? Could it be that something's wrong there?"

"It's possible, after all, the Antarctic holy land does have a deep connection with the gods, but we can only know the specifics by seeing it for ourselves."

Kahn neither confirmed nor denied Donald's speculation, but simply nodded in agreement.

In fact, his reason for wanting to go to the sacred Antarctic site was not because of the recent divine attack, but because the day of harmonic convergence was approaching, and he wanted to check the condition of the passage.

However, since Donak was unaware of this, he didn't say anything more.

After all, the fewer people who know about the passage, the safer the seal on the passage will be.

"I understand. Then I will lead the way to the holy land tomorrow."

Whether it was because the Holy Land was involved or for some other reason, Donald seemed particularly concerned about this matter.

Kahn didn't care about that; as long as he could achieve his goal, there was no problem.

After the matter was temporarily settled, Donald invited the two to have dinner at his home.

At the dinner table, they chatted about Cora and some recent events in Republic City, and finally Donald personally escorted them to a luxury hotel for accommodation.

Back at the hotel, Azura lazily reclined on the bed and said:

"I must say, the food here has given me some pleasant surprises."

Whether it's the Antarctic Waterfowl in Antarctica or the Flamingos on the islands, fishing is an important industry, so their eating habits are somewhat similar, with seafood making up a significant portion of their meals.

However, due to differences in environment and temperature, the two sides have different ways of handling and cooking ingredients, which is quite novel for Azura and Kahn.

Kahn laughed:

"Once this matter is settled, let's take a good look around. I wonder what this so-called Ice Spirit Festival is all about."

"By the way, why do you suddenly want to go to that holy land? You don't seem like the kind of person Donald says who wants to solve problems."

"You can tell that?"

Kahn glanced at Azura with surprise and explained:

"That's right."

He gave a brief account of the situation regarding the dark god Vatu, the convergence of harmonics, and the passage connecting the two worlds.

After listening, Azura asked thoughtfully:

"Since the release of the Dark God Vatu would bring darkness to the world, why hasn't the Light God Lava brought light to the world now that the Dark God has been sealed away?"

Kahn found Azura's idea quite interesting and, after thinking for a moment, said:

"It's probably because Lava was also sealed, although in a different form, it was indeed sealed within the Avatar."

"But I think even if Lava hadn't been sealed away, He probably wouldn't have done that."

"Oh? Why?"

"Lava is the god of light, the god of goodness. Precisely because He is a god of goodness, He will not impose His goodness on others."

Because regardless of whether what is imposed is good or bad, the act of imposing it on others is itself an evil act.

The next morning, Donak arrived with a team of guards to meet the two, and together they headed to the sacred land of Antarctica.

The Antarctic Sanctuary is located in the very center of Antarctica. The further in you go, the colder it gets, and the blizzards become more and more severe. Although Kahn and Azura are not afraid of the cold, they obediently changed into thick winter clothes so as not to affect the casting of magic.

"If we have truly offended the gods unintentionally, what should we do in this situation? Should we ask for their forgiveness?"

On the way, Donald asked Kahn for advice.

"That's not entirely true; we need to discuss it on a case-by-case basis."

Kahn explained in detail:

"If we humans have done something excessive, broken the rules, and thus angered the gods, then we should naturally apologize and ask for their forgiveness."

"But if it's an unintentional act and the consequences aren't serious, then we can still discuss it."

"Furthermore, gods are not perfect beings; they also have their own personalities and temperaments, so sometimes it's not necessarily our problem."

"If that's the case, then we should naturally argue with reason, and it's okay to be a little tough."

"And if it's an evil god, there's no need for words; we can just negotiate with force."

After saying that, Kahn smiled and said:

"Although the gods are more ancient and powerful than us, and have been kind to us in the past, it does not mean that we can only be subservient. After all, this is the human world, and it is still our territory."

Hearing Kahn speak fluently and confidently, Donak felt much more at ease, but the thought of the Holy Land still stirred up some complicated feelings in him.

After traversing bitter cold and blizzards, as they finally approached the holy land, the harsh environment gradually improved. To Kahn, who could not perceive it from others, the aura of "spirit" in the environment grew increasingly strong.

"We're almost there! Wait, what's that?"

Suddenly, Kahn saw a dark purple shadow staring at them as they headed towards the small ice hill. Seeing that Kahn had spotted it, it immediately let out a piercing roar and swooped down towards them.

"Be careful!"

"That's... a god?"

I went swimming this afternoon, hence the late update.
