Chapter 1025: Drawing In The Spies

"Me too! I'm willing to devote everything I possess for the sake of Paradise!" another voice cried out, joining the plea.

"I also want to—"

Soon, a wave of fervour swept through the crowd. One by one, the denizens screamed at the top of their lungs, begging to be granted the same transformation that had just elevated the street thief. The scene became a clamour of pleas as everyone rushed to offer their devotion.

However, it appeared he had accomplished far more than he expected.
