Once the god of illusion began to suspect the god of telepathy, he began to inspect the people who used to be his believers for signs of tampering.
He was very dedicated to this and spent a lot of ti inspecting his previous believers, but he didn’t notice anything amiss. If Legion had used the Gestalt Mind divine ability, he might have noticed sothing. But the virtual copies mostly used the Hypnotize divine ability, so there were no obvious signs of tampering.
The Hypnotize divine ability uses the inner voice of the target to convince them to do sothing or believe sothing. Even a telepath will find it difficult to notice sothing wrong because Legion didn’t tamper with the minds of the believers in any direct way.
But this was not going to be the end of the matter. This is because the fact that there was no evidence that the god of telepathy was the one behind this problem was evidence enough for the god of illusion to believe that the god of telepathy was behind the problem. Besides, there was an easy way for him to confirm his suspicions.
The god illusion sneered and said, "So you want to be that way? Fine. I’ll show you what it ans to attack from the shadows."
After speaking, he imdiately took out the authority of his pathway and used his ultimate ability. It is clear that he is taking this matter seriously.
He has to take this matter seriously because faith is a great source of strength for him and also a great weakness to him. This is because he has six artificial souls.
He originally had six souls. Then he used faith to double his number of souls and to double his power. The amount of original souls is equal to the amount of artificial souls, so he is riding the line between losing his mind to his authority or becoming the slave of his pathway.
He beca too greedy for power and had to pay the price. He could have stopped at four artificial souls, which would put his total number of souls at ten. That would have been enough for him to fuse with his pathway, but he decided not to do the minimum when he could rely on faith for the maximum amount of power.
For his greed, the first price that he has to pay is that he must not lose any of his original souls for a short amount of ti, or his mind will be overwheld by the six artificial souls, and he will beco a slave to the wishes of his believers.
The second price to pay is that the amount of faith he receives must be enough to maintain the six artificial souls at all tis. If he loses too much faith, and one of his artificial souls disappears, his other souls will be put in a situation where they contain too much divinity than they can handle, so he will beco mad.
The god of telepathy is targeting his second weakness, so he couldn’t be lax about this at all. He imdiately activated the Mirror of the World and looked through it.
The Mirror of the World shows the situation of the world and makes it possible for him to make changes to the world by making changes in the mirror.
By looking through the mirror, nothing could be hidden from him. So he was able to see the hidden virtual copies swarming around and hypnotizing his believers.
This sight made him grit his teeth in anger. As he did this, he spoke through his gritted teeth, "I knew that he was the one behind it. Insidious motherfucker. He must not be able to hold back anymore after I blocked him from fusing with the Seed of Dreams."
"His move is good and could have fooled if I didn’t take the matter of my faith seriously. But if he thinks he can get away with this, he is wrong. This is not my first ti dealing with a sneaky and insidious bitch."
He has a lot of experience battling with the god of dreams, so he knew what to do. He imdiately used the thod he used to squash the sche of the god of dreams when the dreams of his believers were being tampered with.
He quickly made a few changes in the mirror. After he was done, he smiled and said, "Now, let’s see what he will do."
The change he made was to make the minds of his believers invisible. The effect of this change was instantaneous. The virtual copies couldn’t find the minds of their targets anymore, so they couldn’t brainwash any more believers.
This simple change to the world didn’t consu a lot of divine energy to make, but it was constantly consuming his divine energy in order to maintain the change. However, he didn’t mind the consumption of divine energy at all.
Other gods need to produce energy themselves through their souls and the divine dragnts in them, but he has millions of people as his source of faith, so his regeneration of divine energy is more than high enough to maintain this change that he made to the world.
The mirror of the world can make changes to the world, but most of the changes are temporary, and most of them affect the perception of others.
This limits the power of the Mirror of the World compared to the Crown of the World of the god of nobles, which allows the god of nobles to make permanent changes to the world, no matter how far away that part of the world is from the god of nobles.
He can use the Mirror of the World to attack enemies and even deal permanent damage to them, but he needs to see an enemy to target first. Since the loss of the virtual copies won’t affect the god of telepathy at all, he decided not to attack them.
