Capítulo 107: Chapter 107: Compensation (4)
[You have chosen a trait selection related to Divinity.]
[You have acquired a trait related to Divinity.]
[You acquire the most suitable trait, Innate Faith (A).]
Innate Faith (A)
Faith that can be obtained from people's beliefs innately.
The more people who wholly admire you, or the more who revere you, the stronger your power becomes.
: Stat, Divine added.
: You are an innate deity according to your divinity. Your divinity is determined, and based on the number of believers, your rank is established.
"…A rank?"
I wasn't entirely happy with the rank, but I didn't mind. After all, traits can be modified to fit my needs.
However, whether it was useful or not was a bit important.
I gave up other things to choose this, so if it's not useful, it's just trash.
'But innate faith?'
Faith bestowed by heaven.
In other words, it meant faith that one possessed from birth.
'But do I have any faith from birth?'
Faith came from being revered or respected by others.
That was the foundation of faith.
The more people there were, the stronger and higher the quality of the power called faith became.
But I didn't have such a person.
'Why would I have innate faith from birth…'
As I thought about it, an idea occurred to me.
What if it included everyone who has faith in me?
'Huh?'
In my second life, I reached the pinnacle as a mage.
In my third life, I reached the pinnacle as a martial artist.
That alone could grant me immense divine power.
However, more dangerous than that…
'My first life.'
My life as a professional gamer.
Back then, my fans were overwhelming.
It was natural.
'Back then, there were a lot of things going on.'
I reigned at the top in what was called the best virtual reality game for a long time.
I always swept all the awards and won the place called the World Cup seven times.
An unprecedented achievement that no pro gamer had ever accomplished.
I debuted as a middle school student and stayed at the top for over ten years.
'If the faith from my first life carries over.'
It was getting a bit scary.
Soon after, an overwhelming power filled me.
[You have naturally received countless faith from people.]
[Your faith value is 1,391,419,198.]
"Faith?"
[Your faith value is overwhelming!]
[Your divinity is exceedingly great. Countless humans have revered you.]
[You have been remembered among people forever.]
[The Eternal God. This is your bestowed divine name.]
[You have imprinted your existence upon them. You receive the rank of Archgod.]
[You have reached the limit of innate faith. Your faith is fixed at 100,000.]
[You acquire the trait, Vessel of the Archgod (Ex-).]
'Huh?'
Something tremendous had arrived.
Gods stood upon the faith of people.
They spread their power among those who remember them, exerting influence.
That's why the Vedas and the celestial gods held the strongest power.
The Veda, where the gods of India existed.
And the celestial gods were cultivating that power.
India and America.
The two were wrestling for power, while other forces below them were watching closely.
The reason they were strong.
They quickly expanded their influence early on, based on countless faiths.
They swiftly appointed their apostles, and many gods joined forces.
The more people remembered them, the more they won people's hearts, the more they gained people's faith.
They could use powerful abilities.
That was the power in the name of faith.
Even gods had a hierarchy.
Lesser gods and middle gods. And the Archgod.
Each of the Archgods were extraordinary.
They must have many followers and wield authority.
Even clumsy transcendents dared not touch them.
And on this earth, there were five Archgods.
[What is this?]
It should have been so.
The five Archgods.
That alone filled the positions on Earth.
While other gods could come, they already held all the positions.
There was no benefit for them to come here.
It was certainly like that.
─A spot appeared.
It was sudden.
As if divinity had only just been obtained.
A spot appeared suddenly, without any precursor.
Domain.
What would commonly be called a domain of the gods suddenly appeared.
It wasn't an ordinary domain.
There existed a domain of a high-ranking Archgod.
It was scattering a massive presence.
[Strange.]
[How did an Archgod come here? Was there such an existence?]
Transcendents and high-ranking deities muttered to each other.
[A new existence. With countless faiths, no less?]
[Humanity's faith is truly immense. Even with different deities in place, they can harbor such faith.]
Everyone looked at the deity's seat with questioning eyes.
[Let's see… there are even those from the Demonic Cult? Though they are weak.]
[You're not in a position to ridicule others, are you? There are those from your empire too.]
[Enough, something else is more impressive. Are there that many humans? Almost a billion humans believe in a single entity?]
[In terms of leaving an impression… it might be the most among the gods?]
[What did you say?]
Everyone's gaze was fixed on the words of a transcendent being.
[Wow, this is really something. How did such an entity just come in out of nowhere?]
[No matter which dimension it came from, can it suddenly wield such influence? Dimensions with populations over a hundred million are rare enough.]
[How many dimensions has he made his own? Truly a fearful existence…!]
Some showed their fear, while others trembled.
Some cast an intrigued gaze.
Among them, two indifferent gazes were directed at them.
[How is this possible? Doesn't the Ming Cult reject any doctrine other than their deity, the Heavenly Demon?]
[The Empire is the same. There are divine beings, but none that inspire such faith.]
[There is… or rather, there was.]
It was due to their nature.
Gathering faith easily made one strong, but it also bound one to various oaths.
If one became a transcendent, they could overcome those oaths.
Of course, this did not mean the power of faith was useless.
The power of faith was certainly strong.
But the constraints were severe.
And it made one dependent on others.
Therefore, the transcendents did not particularly cling to the power of belief.
[Well, whatever it may be.]
The gaze of the other transcendents focused on one of them.
He was a being of considerable standing.
With his unique arrogance, his martial prowess was lower than that of the strongest Heavenly Demon or the Duke of Extermination, who boasted the most outstanding massacres in multi-battles.
In other words, he was a man who was compared to those two.
A man who, among the transcendents, uniquely claimed to be a normal person.
[It won't be boring for a while.]
The man said with a smile.
If one gained new power, naturally, it must be tested.
'Vessel of an Archgod, huh.'
The Ex grade that Yoo Eunchae had emphasized as so important.
Among them, the special thing was that even an ordinary person could gain the traits of that grade and be able to fight against transcendents.
At first, I did not believe those words.
Though most of Yoo Eunchae's words were wrong.
'Transcendents are not called transcendents for nothing.'
They were all beings who had escaped the laws of the stars.
Each one was capable of fighting and defeating a nation, extraordinary beings without a doubt.
That was what a transcendent was.
'But can I defeat them with just one trait?'
Becoming a transcendent was akin to building a colossal tower.
Laying the foundation, raising oneself on solid rock.
While those with certain strengths or in the production field might have a chance, even the weakest production-type transcendent wouldn't be defeated by just one trait.
'I had such thoughts.'
Now, it had changed a bit.
I didn't know what Yoo Eunchae saw or what she said.
But she was right.
A special type of Ex-grade trait might be able to fight a transcendent.
Vessel of an Archgod (Ex-)
You can become a deity.
- Accumulate deeds that everyone praises. (Achieved)
- Gather over ten million people who praise you. (Achieved)
- Create a faction that follows you. (Unachieved)
: The concept is strengthened according to divine power.
: The body is strengthened according to the divine attribute.
: The more faith you gain, the more the concept expands.
This was the new trait I have acquired.
To roughly interpret it:
'Strength increases with divine power, the body is enhanced, and new powers are gained as faith increases?'
That seems to be the meaning.
Strengthening the concept means the power increases, and expansion means obtaining new power.
'…A vessel.'
A vessel for the Archgod.
I clenched my fist.
Immense power infused my body. My strength and agility seemed to have increased by at least half.
'Though I need to measure it roughly.'
Probably, just with physical abilities alone.
In terms of equivalence:
'More so than when I gained the Demon God's body from the Heavenly Demon and ate the Dragon's heart.'
It's beyond the physical body of the Heaven-Surrendering Martial Emperor.
I thought I'd never have that body again.
Because it was a power born of sheer coincidence upon coincidence.
'Shall I measure it precisely first?'
To do that, I had to call the kids.
There weren't many who could withstand my strike.
'Shall I see how far the kids have come along?'
This was definitely not to hit my students.
It was to see how much they had grown.
