"Speaking of which, your plan does seem very feasible. Although lower intelligence life forms are quite foolish, there is no shortage of deities like the Goblin God and the God of the Gnolls in the Multiverse. Most of the entities worshipped by these inferior races are nothing more than beasts with a touch of Divinity, but as Xiao Lan said, a god is a god, and even the weakest among them stands higher on the Life Level than other beings." Chen Yu seed intrigued and comnted with interest on Audis's plan, "The title and Divine Duty of Patron Deity of Tokyo's Stray Cats may sound like child's play, but given the number of stray cats in Tokyo, if you truly can convert them into low-intelligence life forms capable of providing faith, then the volu of faith would indeed be sufficient for both of you to ignite the Divine Fla and muster a ager amount of Divine Power.
And with the internet so widespread, if you two can successfully achieve Divine Enthronent and display miracles, spreading your faith through the web to the whole world wouldn't be too difficult. Considering that there are even people who believe in the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster and get baptized as its followers, the birth of a religion that worships cats wouldn't be strange at all. Among Earth's population of over six billion, even if only one percent believed in you, it would be enough to elevate your Divine Rank, becoming a deity of dium or even great Divine Power."
"Mr. Chen Yu, are you saying that Xiao Lan and Audis's plan is feasible?" Jounouchi Hiromi, listening to Chen Yu's words, couldn't help imagining what it would be like if Xiao Lan and Audis really succeeded in their Divine Enthronent.
Chen Yu smiled and nodded, continuing to speak amidst the slightly fearful gazes of Audis and Xiao Lan, "Indeed, if their plan can be carried out smoothly and without external interference, there is indeed a high chance of success. However, Japan is ho to many deities, not to ntion that the two from the iji Shrine probably wouldn't allow them to truly beco deities in Tokyo.
But if they do succeed in becoming deities, it would benefit us as well. Only when a giant dragon grows to the Primordial Dragon level can it rival the deities. If Xiao Lan successfully advances from Legendary-rank to the realm of deities, then you could directly share his Divine Power and Divinity through the soul connection, transforming into a Divine Creature, and even seizing the chance to beco a Demigod is not out of the question.
And I could do the sa through Audis. While Divine Creatures and Demigods still fall short compared to true deities, Demigods are not bound by Divine Duties and faith. Generations of Necromancers have known thods to elevate themselves from Demigods to Nature Deities through Demigod Divinity. So, Hiromi, if you want to experience what it feels like to be a deity, I can have Ryousen-kun and the others work with Audis's plan and propel them both onto the Divine Position."
Jounouchi Hiromi's eyes widened in disbelief at Chen Yu's words.
The existence of deities, to Jounouchi Hiromi who was just an ordinary person a year ago, was ultimately too far-fetched, even though she now was an extraordinary Blood Knight. She had always been without a sense of reality regarding these matters.
However, Jounouchi Hiromi did not seem too keen on using her mount in such a way. After thinking it over, she asked Chen Yu, "Mr. Chen Yu, if you were to undertake Divine Enthronent yourself, what thod would you use to beco a deity? Is there no other way apart from leveraging Xiao Lan and Audis?"
"Other thods? Of course there are! Moreover, there are thods far more convenient and efficient than theirs of transforming Families and gathering faith." Chen Yu's face was filled with smiles, and he looked aningfully at Jounouchi Hiromi, offering his advice, "Hiromi, when you have ti, you should study your 'Crimson Hymn' more. It contains detailed information on this subject. After all, that is the complete legacy of the Blood School and has so differences from the Death School's legacy in my possession. There are many things that even if you ask , I can only answer based on the knowledge of the Death School."
However, the overall thod of Divine Enthronent is the sa, whether it's a god born from faith and worship or natural spirits born from nature. Fundantally, it's about integrating oneself as a part of the world's rules.
A God of Faith gains divinity by making believers think they possess a certain Authority, by willing distortions into reality, creating sothing out of nothing, or assimilating part of the real world's rules within themselves. This is the Divine Duty of a God of Faith, and by having a Divine Duty, one becos a part of the world's rules.
Nature Deities are the sa. They are nothing but a consciousness born from rules or a consciousness that has rged with the rules. In essence, to beco a deity, one must beco a part of the world's rules. Within the scope of the world, you can do anything within the limits allowed by the rules.
Relatively speaking, Nature Deities, apart from their will gradually converging with the personality exhibited by their own rules, do not face as many constraints as the Gods of Faith, as the latter are heavily influenced by faith."
Having explained this, Chen Yu paused for a mont, allowing Jounouchi Hiromi to digest the information, and then he glanced at the two cats who were also listening intently with pricked ears and continued, "As I just said, the thod of Divine Enthronent is to integrate oneself with the rules and beco a part of the world's rules. Therefore, aside from faith-based Divine Enthronent, which uses the will to distort reality, a simpler thod is plundering, directly seizing and incorporating the world's rules into oneself.
The inheritance of the Death School is all related to death, and although there's knowledge from other Schools of magic, if you want to follow the path of the Death School for Divine Enthronent, the ways of plundering rules are mostly related to death. For example, polluting an entire river, filling it with corpses and death, transforming the river into a river of the dead, and then rging yourself with this river of the dead, severing it from the real world and assimilating it into yourself. In doing so, you can integrate the rules about death of the river, which has been forcibly endowed with the concept of death, into yourself, thus achieving divinity."
Upon hearing Chen Yu speak of filling a river with corpses and death, Jounouchi Hiromi's face turned pale; she was terrified that Chen Yu would choose this thod for his Divine Enthronent. What she imagined was creating a massacre and throwing the bodies into the river.
Seeing the concern on Jounouchi Hiromi's face, Chen Yu laughed and shook his head, finding it sowhat absurd: "I know, Hiromi, that you must be thinking it's necessary to cause death through slaughter. Indeed, within the inheritance of the Death School, there are many Necromancers who have done so, but this has so side effects because if it's caused by massacre, the resentnt of those who died in vain will also attach to the river. If integrated into oneself, it will affect one's character.
However, in this world, I don't need to do that at all, because there is a river that is already filled with death and corpses, and it doesn't have side effects. In the local belief system, this is a sanctified river, one that guides the deceased to the afterlife, a symbol of purification and sanctity. If I use this river to perform the Apotheosis Ritual, it won't just be free of side effects for , it could even be beneficial."
