Within the Empire of Bestellen, several churches had suddenly begun to recruit all sorts of talents.
Anyone who was decently strong was being recruited.
"By the grace of our Lord Bestellen, all those willing and talented enough will be given the chance to enter his special Dungeon, where all of you can grow stronger at a fast pace due to time differences in between the dungeon and the outside world. This is all so we can prepare to fight the second coming of the Demon God-King and the awakening Dark Gods…"
A Pope began to inspire the people, as several Adventurers that were confident in their strength decided to join this. Although some people seemed doubtful about this whole ordeal, suspecting that something fishy and strange was going on.
And other people seemed to not like this at all, thinking that it was very unnecessary to enlist even more people to the military and knights, although there were already several royal knight houses and paladin houses, now even Adventurers that usually thinned down the monsters around the Empire were being recruited.
Also, the requirements were very little, some people were being the chance to enter this Dungeon Tower with barely any combat Skills, as this place had the power to let people enter through their souls. It was a mystical area where people could kill illusion monsters that gave EXP and battle experience, however, whenever they were to die, their souls would return to their bodies and they could do this constantly, gaining more and more EXP without any actual risk other than the traumatizing mental weight of being killed over and over again…
However, the EXP made up for it, and even more as this entire thing was being fueled by Gods themselves…
.
Bestellen had given the order just three days ago, and since then, a large white tower emerged in the middle of the Empire of Bestellen, where Adventurers, Knights, and Popes alike began to enter and constantly sharpen their power. This entire ordeal was being financed by the government… Bestellen was using a lot of Divine Energy for this, which he was taking from the World's Core itself.
As a God born since the origin of the world, he and all the other Dark and Bright Gods knew about the existence of the Origin Core, and about its ability to sustain a large amount of divine energy within it. He had placed the Empire of Bestellen right above the area where the world's core was positioned, and now that he had grown with the necessity of more energy than he could produce, he had decided to draw power from this area through his Law of Divinity, which helped him bend the laws of a world.
By using this energy, he fueled the gigantic structure in the middle of the Empire of Bestellen, where people moved in and out…
Bestellen had considered that he required more vessels for the other Gods he had planned to send, more Heroes that could harbor Heroic Gods within them, so the idea of boosting the progress and power of all these people had come to his mind.
Although some Gods argued that many would end up dying even if they were to begin leveling up as of now, Bestellen said that they were necessary sacrifices for the greater good. This entire situation was growing more ridiculous, it seemed, as Bestellen's mind was slowly falling into more and more insanity without him realizing it.
As Bestellen prepared many of such things, Ervas and Veronica had decided to Rank Up and Change Jobs.
It hasn't even been that much time since their last Rank Up and Job Change, but the amount of energy and unrefined Primordial Essence that absorbing the Origin Core of the Future Kritias gave to them was enough for them to decide to evolve and change jobs now that they could.
The powerful presences which Bestellen had mistaken for the Dark Gods had ended being theirs, and now that they were about to rank up and change jobs… this enormous presence might resurge once more, perhaps even bigger, and more terrifying than before…
After having taken into all of this power and having learned more about the truth about Kelsus and Anir, the split souls discussed this with the Gods that were with them, Uphy, Phunana, Chaneyr, and Roneas, alongside most of their closest allies and servants.
The conversation and discussion of such events had gone for some hours, but it seems that everyone understood a bit more about the truth behind the two worlds of Kritias, knowing the origins made the Gods realize that their existences were more special than they had already imagined.
After many conversations, the split souls decided to rest for a whole week inside their Divine Realms, whose time went fast compared to the outside if they wanted. While doing this, the two spent some sweet time with their families and loved ones. Especially Ervas, who had interacted a lot with his mother, while she and his father were growing close once more, and it seems that they might have shared a night of passion just recently, reviving their love some more.
Ervas began to consider if he might soon enough have a little sibling…
Aside from this, he and Veronica met with Aleksandra's Summon, the only one she had, as, unlike Ervas, she didn't seem to have the talent to summon many creatures, and had only summoned one which she had been growing up with since being a child.
Due to this, this summons was incredibly strong compared to Ervas summons, well, not really after the divinity was applied, but perhaps they were in equal strength, although Aleksandra's summon had the advantage of the experience on his side.
He was named Abyssal by Aleksandra, and he was of the same race as Ervas' Cthulhu, after having evolved several times, he ended becoming a tall and monstrous giant.
The little (not so little anymore) Cthulhu began to look over Abyssal as his "senpai"…
After these things, the two felt ready to step up into the higher realm before meeting with the rest of the Dark Gods…
