Chapter 96 - Divinity Of A Deity

The Minor Pseudo Deity of Death.

The Quasi Pseudo Deity of Life.

The Upper Minor Pseudo Deity of Determination.

The Usurping Pseudo Deity of Perpetual Creation.

Those four portfolios had been ingrained in MF's soul like an identity card in the form of the 'Divinity Symbol'. Each of the divinities could grow to a higher rank of itself when cultivated.

Right now, all of the faiths MF had accumulated were transformed, condensed, and splitted into four types to its respective divinity. The faith of determination, the faith of death, the faith of life, and the faith of perpetual creation.

Thanks to the newly acquired divine prowess, MF could use the faith to perform its symbolistic nature, utilizing the power of deity to bend, alter, implement, affect, and tamper reality to a certain degree. Because MF was currently on the lowest hierarchy of divinity, she could only do so much regarding her own titles.

"It was sure convenient when you get enlightenment when bestowed by these divinity, otherwise I don't know what the hell is going on. No wonder the true deity immediately knew what to do when getting their portfolios."

Of course, because now the faith was categorized depending on its divinity, MF needed the subconscious energy to be related in aspect or act for it to transform into this special kind of faith.

The divinity also allowed MF to gain faith with more than just one method of gathering followers and believers.

To get the faith of life, her followers need to believe and see the act of their deity to perform something akin to giving, taking, or amplifying a 'life'. There were hundreds of methods that MF could do; most of her accumulated faith in life came from the wisps and the residents of Domeniul Ceresc.

"Let's refer to their amount as 'bits' from now on." MF childishly squated, letting her black dress meet the cold ground as she accumulated the different types of faith onto her palm. "These energies were extremely small individually after all."

In comparison, MF had around 1,172 bits of 'faith of life'. Interestingly, Nerull's Bane symbol-pill made this divine energy three times more powerful.

"Yet somehow, this divinity is lower in rank than my other divinity… Is it because I haven't created any kind of life?"

To get the faith of death, MF needed to shove the concept of 'dying' as a reminder to those who follow or believe in her subconsciously or knowingly. This kind of faith could also be collected through other means such as killing people indirectly or implanting the true fear of death to those who opposed her.

Because she was the harbinger of death for the most of her presence near others, she had accumulated 2,122 bits of 'faith of death'.

The 'faith of determination', something that MF didn't expect yet, was welcomed as one of her divinity. This kind of faith was mostly focusing on the aspect of emotion and action rather than influence. She could even generate the faith for herself passively.

She had 4,655 bits of 'faith of determination'. Most of it might have come from herself.

"I get on how to use the divinity of life, the same with death, but 'determination'? Hmm, maybe I can bless my followers with a sudden burst of productivity or something, maybe stubbornness, stupidly." MF chuckled.

And the last divinity, and the highest in terms of ranking out of all the divinity she had.

The faith of perpetual creation.

MF was confused at first, why 'perpetual'? It might be a better version of 'creation' divinity.

Instead of 'minor' and 'quasi', MF got the 'usurping' title on the portfolio.

"Probably it has something to do with bearing the name of an entity that represents an endless cycle of life and death, creation and destruction."

She had 5,225 bits of 'faith of perpetual creation'. Now this made her think, how come she didn't get the portfolio of 'destruction'? Either that or she hadn't done any kind of destruction, or her followers didn't even deem her as one the slightest.

Then came the essence of infinity. MF felt that the orb back then only gave its fraction of deification to MF.

"Oh, Ouroboros. It seemed like I'm not strong enough to bear the divinity of infinity."

MF felt a little bit disappointed, but she made sure to redirect her negativity into a goal for her to achieve.

"Fufufu, just you wait, my little orb. I will come to get you!"

From aiming to become an Angel Slayer, to becoming a literal Pseudo-Angel, then a Pseudo-Deity. Life might not come as always as she planned but it felt satisfying on itself when attaining those great achievements.

"Wait, can I still be regarded as 'Angel Slayer' or not?"

MF felt entranced by the beautiful divine dust of faith on her own palm. She meticulously tried to examine their true nature for quite a while.

But these breakthroughs had allowed her to pursue something that she always wanted to do since she attained the 'Dark Creation' skill. Again, the name might be misleading but it was actually referring to how she was able create a material substance from the goo-like resources from the palm of her Divine Gauntlet.

She did create a copy of herself, but it didn't have any soul or something that was controlling the vessel.

MF then took her shorter clone out from her pocket space pouch. Leaning on the cave wall, she decided to test her newly found divine power.

"I'll just explore Anvriel's First Form later, it's not like I'm playing god everyday."

She played god everyday.

MF injected 2,000 bits of 'faith of life' onto the lifeless vessel. The energy began to encompass every inch of the vessel, forcing something to come into it.

"Uuuuhh, the process is a bit slow and I don't have much 'faith of life'." MF leaned her cheek on her right fist supported by her left wrist. "Does it take more divinity the more complex the biological existence is?"

MF didn't want to create a lesser intelligent being as her first creation of life, so she still insisted on pushing the awakening of her perfect frankenstein.

With gusto, MF put all of her 'faith of life' into her clone, in the hope of something happening.
