Chapter 100 [Bonus ] Not An Item Holder, But A God? (Part 2)

''That's right. He is a deity who gives his followers the opportunity to grow. Don't let him down, and show him that you're worth it. '' Another youth said.

''The Master bestowed grace upon us. As his subjects, all we can do is our best. Just be grateful, Boss; don't be a fool. '' The last to speak was Fatty Sami. He was already on his knees and appeared to be praying in the direction of the factory.

One by one, they were all shouting, and the volume of their exaggerations only increased. At this point, everyone's inner fire started to burn. The last obstacle to their perception of Raydon as a god had been removed by Dan, who became the chosen one for the awakening.

''Yes, you are right. '' Dan finally collected himself and began to slowly stand. There was no longer any room for uncertainty in him.

''I'll try my hardest to earn this privilege that the master granted me. '' Dan declared resolutely. Raydon used to be referred to as everyone's brother, but now, out of fear that it would be blasphemous, they have started calling him master.

Despite the fact that Raydon would have cringed if he had been present and witnessed everything that was going on, he had now won over devoted followers.

''Okay, let's get going. You now have the opportunity to witness the strength of our master. '' Dan said and led the crowd to Raydon's fighting location.

''What? I'm fairly certain that this is the location. There must have been a huge factory located here. '' Sami said while observing the vast field in front of him. All that could be seen as soil; there wasn't even a shred of green.

''Yes, I did come by here once to scout the area. I'm sure their headquarters should have been here. Or am I mistaken? '' While rubbing his confused head, another teen said.

With a serious and assured expression, Dan replied, "No, this location is accurate, I'm sure of it. ''

''What? Are you sure, boss? But there is nothing here. ''

''Boss. I believe we are in the wrong location. I don't even hear any fighting. ''

''Yes, we should at least be able to hear the noise of the fight, right? They should fight fiercely, after all, they are item holders. ''

''No, we've come to the right place. Just the fight has already ended. '' Dan said in a collected manner. He vowed to stop letting anything he learned or saw about Raydon surprises him.

Sami must have also noticed what happened because he joined the conversation right away.

''Fighting between two item holders? Hahahah, you're so naive. As the boss stated, this is the location of that item holder's headquarters. And, indeed, our master and that item holder fought here. But who is our master? Do you really think that he is merely an ordinary item holder, like the enemy? You're gravely mistaken; he's a god who bestowed the power of an item holder on our boss. '' Fatty Sami took a step forward, excitedly shouting.

He'd finally gotten the chance to put his exaggeration skills to use, and he had to make the most of it.

"You all know that saying when we common people talk about item holders, right? ''

Sami inquired, standing in front of everyone, his gaze fixed on the curious eyes staring at him.

''They are immortals, who have the ability to send storms when they are sad and earthquakes when they are angry. '' One of the teenagers said reverently.

''You are correct. That is how we define item holders. '' Fatty Sami said with astonished seriousness. He continued to speak while everyone wondered where this big mouth's speech was going.

''However, you all forgot that our master is not just an item holder. He is a god among item holders.''  Everyone was silently listening to Sami. Even though they could sense that what he was saying was exaggerated, no one objected because they were starting to think that Raydon was a god as well.

''I can still see uncertainty in your eyes. But you're all stupid, and you can't see the proof right there in front of you. '' Sami said loudly, pointing to the flat area behind him with a reverent expression on his stupid face.

''Look!!! Our master has only recently fought here, but where is the storm or earthquake? There is no such thing, right? Nothing is there, not even the factory or the nearby houses. Because he is not an item holder. He is a deity. He just came here and erased everything from existence, and this is proof of that. ''

At the end of his speech, Sami finally fell to his knees, arms wide open to the sky, and yelled as if praying.  ''Master, thank you for saving your followers from this disaster. ''

As they watched Fatty Sami, everyone was in awe of his level of stupidity. But simultaneously, everything in front of their eyes was confirming his theories, so they ultimately made the decision to join him. One by one, they all knelt like Sami and started chanting with their hands raised to the sky.

''Master, thank you for saving us followers from this disaster. ''

...

''Master, thank you for saving us followers from this disaster. ''

They were later joined by Pana and Karan. In spite of the fact that Dan thought it was embarrassing, he decided to imitate everyone because of his extreme respect for Raydon.

''Master, thank you for saving us followers from this disaster. ''

From a distance, anyone who saw this group activation in a deserted field would undoubtedly assume they were a cult.

And if there had been a stat called faith in this world, Raydon's faith stat would have increased at this point without a doubt.

*Achoo*

Raydon had already returned home and was about to check today's loot when he sneezed.

''What is this? I didn't catch a cold or anything, did I? ''He had a brief thought.

''Anyway, I got quite a few items, despite the fact that a few of them were broken due to my carelessness. ''

Herman's items, which he had stripped off before dumping his body into the cauldron, were now lying in front of him.
