Abel sat on the Golden Castle platform with a glass of Water Spirit fruit juice while feeling the changes he had undergone.
After such intense battles, he was more relaxed than ever. But of course, it was also because he had already explored most of the places in the Dark World.
As for killing Baal, he would need to become God Rank and level-up his gear even more.
At the same time he used up way too many Potions, he needed to replenish them soon.
—
The Power of Law kept rushing into his three Territories.
The light energy in his Territories could no longer be concealed with the sudden increase, and the other elements within them were also growing crazily.
Abel sensed his Territories were quite unstable. It seemed a fast level-up was quite troublesome after all!
In the following days, Abel tried his best to take care of the matter, and his three Territories slowly reached his Rank.
He could not rush the matter, but he still had some time before his Rank 35 was stabilized anyway.
He turned to the Holy Kingdom. After he had moved his hundred million followers to the Holy Continent, he no longer knew what had happened within it.
But he did not regret his decision. The amount of Faith generated by a hundred million followers was enough to travel all the way and reach him in the Golden Castle.
Each day, the angel statue below the Golden Castle was absorbing large amounts of Faith!
It was one-fifth of the Faith from the Holy Kingdom, but it did not need to supply the Guardian Wings and run the Holy Kingdom. It was all going into the angel avatar.
With those followers around, the angel avatar was getting more powerful by the day.
Abel had gotten a true taste of the angel avatar’s power during its fight with Lister the Tormentor. It had come a long way since its creation.
Sometimes he was even a little envious of his angel avatar. His original body needed luck to level up, but all his angel avatar needed was Faith to turn into light energy!
There were no ranks to his angel avatar, but it was born a God Rank, and it could predict the movement of its opponents perfectly.
He reached his Power of the Will into the angel avatar shadow in his Druid Soul and sensed how his followers were doing in the central continent.
As soon as he entered, he sensed Faith rushing in like water.
If his Power of the Will were not so powerful with the World Stone and the Druid Soul, no way he would have been able to handle it.
He was no god, and normally even gods would use their Kingdoms to manage their Faith. The angel avatar’s shadow was like a Kingdom. It could not be taken out, yet he kept supplying it with energy.
The only thing was that he never heard of a god putting their Kingdom in their soul!
As he continued to reach for God Rank, he had truly realized just how different the angel avatar was. But for now, his main mission was to level up himself, as the angel avatar still had not reached a bottleneck.
He quickly looked through the prayers.
Some of them were about the anxiety of their new lives, but more were about their gratitude to god. After all, they had been freed from the war.
It was especially true since the Holy Kingdom had ordered their followers to pray from day to night for more Faith, which had added an intense atmosphere to their lives.
They all knew one thing: a huge war was coming!
Although they had lost their home and assets, this new land they were given also came with houses, food, and stuff for daily living.
For the first time, those followers also saw people from other religions. In the Holy Kingdom, they were told that such people were their worst enemies, yet they had received a new Divine Edict that they should tolerate them and treat them as equals.
Since the Holy Continent had never been attacked by the Holy Kingdom, there were not any tensions between them. However, it could not have happened in the central continent, since the people there kept getting attacked.
The Kingdom of St Ellis was treating the followers very well. With the dwarves’ assistance, cities had begun to sprung up.
Maybe I need a god to help me manage these messages!, Abel thought to himself as he read through the prayers. After all, the angel avatar had no time to manage them!
But if he left them alone, those followers might get less faithful…
After all, the Holy Kingdom was in a constant state of pressure, and his followers might get more relaxed as time went on.
Abel thought about his eleven new gods. They were all busy recovering their Kingdoms. Since Abel was worried about the Wizard Union discovering them, he did not let them recruit more followers.
The only one with nothing to do was Thief God Milton.
He did not have any Kingdom, and Abel would not let him make one in the near future considering how furious the Wizard Union had gotten over the Mountain God.
If he was not careful, a God Rank war could easily break out!
The Wizard Union’s President was on his way back and the Demon from Beyond was about to reawaken. Abel didn’t want to be the one to light the fuse.
Abel quickly called Thief God Milton over and began to wonder how it could help the angel avatar manage its Faith.
Abel had no idea what to do, but he had some guesses.
If the Angel Statue Shadow was really like a Kingdom, other gods should be able to enter as long as he was willing.
It was just like Doff the War God’s Realm, which other gods could enter and help him take care of stuff there.
The moment Abel moved his Power of the Will, Thief God Milton disappeared and reappeared within the Angel Statue Shadow.
However, the praying Izual immediately opened its eyes with killing intent as soon as Thief God Milton appeared.
To Izual, this place was holy, and it would unleash all its power to kill any intruder, even after countless years of torture in Hell.
Thief God Milton instinctively turned invisible, but nothing could escape Izual in the Angel Statue Shadow!
Abel quickly stopped Izual. If its soul had not been injured, Thief God Milton might have been killed already!
After Izual received Abel’s command, it closed its eyes again and continued to pray. Abel then gave Thief God Milton permission to make contact and reply to the prayers.
Immediately Thief God Milton started working like it was his nature as a god. He did not hesitate, even though there were a hundred million followers.
Abel allowed those followers to access Doff’s healing spells and large amounts of Potions. It was the best way to increase their Faith!
He took out thousands of Lite Healing Potions and placed them in Thief God Milton’s portal bag. Afterwards, he allocated them out to the preachers.
Just like that, the deserted north of the Kingdom of St Ellis became even more lively.
——
Settling a hundred million people was not easy, and the dwarves were working from day to night.
Houses were only the basics, as cities had to be established for them to truly settle.
Then there would need to be temples built for the angel avatar, so he could strengthen their Faith even more.
Those hundred million followers were organized into thousands of camps. It meant there needed to be thousands of temples built in order to make them feel closer to their god.
But with the angel avatar’s special ability to affect the land, their piety began to grow.
——
A new city was built, and the preachers began to work.
Suddenly a young follower smashed a hammer on the hand of a middle-aged follower by mistake and his flesh was immediately split open.
Normally, a simple Healing Aura would do the trick to heal it, but at that moment there were no holy knights around.
A preacher stepped forward with empathy in his eyes as he mumbled a spell. By the time he finished, he opened his eyes in excitement.
“My Great Lord, please use your power to heal!” he chanted with all his heart and a strange energy landed on that injured follower.
The wound on his hand immediately healed like nothing had ever happened!
Those followers had seen holy knights healing with Aura before, but seeing a preacher do it was totally different!
Soon, more and more miracles like this happened, and their Faith kept growing by the day…
