GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1774: Priesthood.

In the meantime, they spent the little extra divinity they had on them in divine orbs to buy more divine spells until they became broke. So they were very dedicated when they turned their attention towards the mortal realm.

-Bull Horn Tribe.

Warshaw was praying as she always does when she is not preaching or making sacrifices. She sometimes receives replies, but that is not the reason why she prays. She prays because she knows that her God is listening to her. The 9 Crowns don't need to reply for her to relish moments when she gets to pray.

This prayer session happened to draw a reply from the 9 Crowns. Their voice boomed mightily in her mind like resounding thunder.

"I have seen your faithfulness. I have seen your works, and I know your mind. So I have decided to make you into a better tool."

She received a notification immediately.

-You Have Received Access To Divine Spells.

1. DIVINE STRIKE.

2. DIVINE HOLD.

3. DIVINE SHIELD.

4. DIVINE STRENGTH.

5. DIVINE SPEED.

8. DIVINE ENDURANCE.

She bowed and wept. Her voice rose as she praised, "Glory to the 9 Crowns."

There was more. The 9 Crowns said to her, "Bring to me 5 of the most faithful believers. I shall make them into better tools that I will use to unify the Orc race and recreate the Orc Empire."

What she heard almost blew her mind. She was so excited that she almost jumped. She didn't jump, though. That would be disrespectful to the 9 Crowns. Instead, she settled for unbridled happiness and continuous praises as she ran about to find the tools for God's work.

She searched all over the tribe using the eye of faith. With the eye of faith, she can tell those who believe in the 9 Crowns or other gods. She can also tell the level of their faith too. So no one can deceive her by pretending to be a believer.

She was looking around for the most faithful to bring to the 9 Crowns, so she only paid attention to those whose aura of faith was almost too bright to see. She found 7 of them with excellent faith, which caused her to be in a dilemma because the 9 Crowns wanted just 5. But her connundrum was solved when the 9 Crowns told her to bring all 7.

The 7 believers included Hogging, the previous chief of the tribe, Axec, the current chief, and Antios Warshaw's acolyte. They and the other four were brought before the altar.

They bowed and prayed for the blessing of the 9 Crowns. Their prayer was answered in a way they never thought before. A golden figure formed above the altar. The 7 of them didn't see this golden figure. Only Warshaw did, and it made her weep for joy.

Legion-1 then possessed Warshaw. She stopped weeping, and her eyes turned golden. She stood up straight as a power beyond the realm of mortals began to emanate from her body. Even the ignorant 7 orcs felt this change. They were forced to prostrate before her as they said, "God is here."

Legion-1 spoke through her to them, "I have seen your good works, so I have come to reward you for your faith."

Her lips weren't moving at all as she spoke. She simply opened her mouth to allow the golden light within her to come out through it, accompanied by words. The voice that came out of her mouth echoed and reverbrated in such a way that it sounded like nine people speaking at

once.

"From henceforth, I shall take all that you have to offer and use you for my purpose. You shall be my tools to unify the scattered orc tribe. From today onwards, you are no longer mere mortals; you are my tools here in the mortal realm."

They received a notification to that effect.

-You Have Been Offered The Priest Class.

-Do You Accept?

They all accepted, so they received another notification.

-You have unlocked the Faith stat.

-You have gained Eye of faith and Divine Spells.

Legion-1 thought to himself, "This will have to do."

Priests are different from oracles. They don't have the insight and spirit communication. This means that they can't gain information about things just from looking at them, and the 9 Crowns can't communicate with them. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

He also can't possess them and act through them. But they have access to his divine spells, which they can cast with their faith stat, so the stronger their faith is, the more powerful the spell will be.

Of course the spells are not the full version of the ones gods use. It relies mostly on their faith and, to a lesser degree, the Authority of their god. This makes it a class of spells that the best mortal mages can't match. So despite the priests being half the value of an Oracle, they are many enough to be very useful for what Legion is about to do.

He said to them, "Spread the word and begin creating an army worthy of an empire. You will lead this army to reclaim the lands of the orc back into the fold of the only true god. Go and bring my religion to the ends of the earth."

Then he let go of Warshaw's body and left with his avatar to scout the surroundings. This is the reason he created an avatar instead of just possessing Warshaw. He didn't have to create an avatar, but he wanted the new priests to experience his Majesty and also be able to move through walls to scout all the tribes in the surroundings.

They have another slot for an oracle, but they are holding off on choosing another one for now. They want to select a child next. Warshaw is old and about to die. This is especially so if they will be possessing her often. The burden of a god's consciousness is not something a mortal can bear easily.
