Chapter 40: C40 The Power Of Gods

Thomas, Drew, and Elioenai followed the Phantom Bat.

As they moved further to the shrine, they noticed that the wilderness was becoming more lush and vibrant.

It was Drew who noticed it first since his ability was a wood type, which made him close to nature.

"The wilderness is becoming more lush and vibrant," Drew commented with a confused voice.

He was hoping to get an answer from the Phantom Bat, but he was disappointed as the bat did not care. Instead, it continued flying.

When they arrived, Drew and the others were enlightened. They could feel the aura of their Lord as they were getting closer to the shrine. They could not help but prostrate themselves.

After walking for a while, they arrived in front of a barrier and stopped before taking a deep breath.

"Beyond this barrier is the shrine of our Lord," the bat said with a reverent voice.

The three were stunned. They knew that Allen was a trainee in the camp, thus, when they heard that he already had a shrine, they were excited as this indicates that he, the Divine Spirit of Life and Death, had become stronger.

They began moving again. The barrier of the shrine did not block anyone from entering or going out. But it blocked all forms of detection and isolated the inside of the barrier from the outside.

Just as they stepped inside, they saw a glamorous waterfall within the barrier.

It has majestic crystal pillars that were engraved with symbols that they do not understand. The pillars seemed to shine as they reflected the piercing light of the sun.

Then, amidst the pillars, there lays an altar within the waters of the waterfall. The altar was circular. Its edge is fine white with symbols that emit a holy aura. Then, at the center of the altar, there lay the beasts.

When the three saw them, they were terrified because almost all of the beasts on the altar had the strength of a colonel.

Who would have thought that the colonel beasts were gathering in this place? Worse, they were not fighting each other. Instead, they were lying asleep side by side on an altar. Allen's Altar became akin to a bed.

Allen, then, stood amidst the beast. Then, some of the beasts made way for him as he walked to the edge of the altar and sat on it with his foot submerged in the water.

"Welcome to my shrine," Allen said with a proud voice as he looked at them. Then, he splashed them with water.

The three subconsciously used their hands to block the water, but the water did not hit them as it became crystals that turned into a set of crystal-like tables and chairs.

The three were amazed and asked themselves, "Is this the power of gods? Able to turn anything into anything they like as they please?"

"Sit," Allen said.

The three bowed their heads reverently before taking a seat.

The crystal chairs, for some reason, made them comfortable. Its glassy and brittle appearance isn't the same to the touch.

It was as soft as cotton and as comfortable as a pillow.

After a while, Thomas went off his chair and kneeled with his head on the floor as he spoke.

"My Lord, I've brought him."

"Good. Rise, and bring him out," Allen said with a smile.

The word 'good' from Allen made Thomas feel good and motivated. If he was not in front of Allen, he might have jumped out of joy.

He, then, eyed Drew and Elioenai as if he was bragging to them of the compliment that Allen gave him.

Then, he reached into his shadow and pulled the youth from within.

Just as he placed the youth on the ground, the sleeping beasts opened their eyes and looked at the youth with alertness.

They were prepared to strangle him at any moment. The beast did not sense Allen's divine mark on the youth, which is the reason why they were glaring at the youth.

Allen waved his hand and calmed the beasts.

"How is it, Thomas?" Allen asked Thomas as he sent an ape-type beast to take the youth's body somewhere on the corner of the shrine.

"My Lord, I offer my gratitude to you. This servant did not deserve it," Thomas said.

Allen was asked about the inheritance that he gave Thomas.

"Nonsense, you deserved it."

Even at his peak, Allen would not take the efforts of his followers unaccounted.

He will reward all actions that deserve to be rewarded. At the same, he will punish those who had wronged him.

He places great emphasis on the consequences of choices and he will not let anything pass. Big or small, consequences should be given.

Thomas bowed as a reply as he was delighted by what Allen said.

Allen stared at Drew and Elioenai for a second. Then, he had decided that he'll also give them the information.

Allen snapped his hands. After which, the two were dazed as they began receiving the information that Allen gave them.

After the process was done, their eyes widened as they realized its content. They noticed that it was a fighting technique that was intended for the followers of a divine spirit.

"Lord, we do not deserve it," the two of them said simultaneously as they kneel.

Drew and Elioenai thought that it was too precious. And they thought that they were yet to do something for Allen, unlike Thomas.

"I want you to use that to form a bigger group, also you can use that to reward the other followers."

Allen's plan all along was to make the two of them form another group that would be like the Plague River Church. Then he will put them on the life side of his authority.

In truth, Allen did not have much idea in starting a group of believers, but his experience made him do well, or so, as he thought.

Drew and Elioenai bowed. Then, the three of them left and began studying the information that Allen gave them.

Allen, too, did not stay idle and began his plan.

He went to the youth that Thomas brought from the arena and stared at him for a while.
