章 1829: Strange Things.

The gods were surprised when Smite spoke up. But they weren't willing to capitulate so easily. If there is something worse than 9 Crowns getting a domain, it is 9 Crowns allying with Smite and also getting a domain. 

A god king asked Smite, "Didn't you manage to pass? Didn't many people also manage to get domain quest this past month? I think we can find a way in the absence of Gemmis's help."

Smite shook his head and replied, "That's different."

The god kings began to argue. It was mostly Smite against the other god kings about allowing the reward for the top ranking to be passed and for domain quests to be given by Gemmis. 

As if Smite's stance waa not strange enough, 9 Crowns didn't join this argument. The fearsome Orc God king was silently contemplating why Smite would be in support of him growing stronger.
