Author’s note: I don’t know why I didn’t post the bonus chapters yesterday, it was already ready, it was my mistake, sorry about that.
The next day, Milena began to spread the news to everyone in the city that there would be a glamorous event the next day, something capable of changing anyone’s life in that city for the better. The other three tried to find Milena and find out what was happening, but she was nowhere in the city. Her strange actions made it clear that she seemed to want to emancipate herself from the city or create her faction, something prohibited by the agreement between them.
Kayden and Felix were with Milena a few miles outside town, hidden by several methods. Meanwhile, several letters were delivered and spread across the city, causing an uproar among people left out by society, eager for an opportunity to change their lives.
As the three wizards in the third realm searched the city, their search was a failure. They could only watch as thousands of people gathered in the city square at the appointed time. Ordering everyone to go home would cause waves of uproar, especially since the "gods" were seen as benevolent to the population despite their flaws.
Thousands of people of different ages waited at the appointed time, along with the three gods floating in the air. Julian, who used to use drugs, was sober for the first time in a long time. Gabriel, muscular and carrying a giant sledgehammer, and Lucas, extremely ugly but a lightning wizard, were also present.

Amid the silence, two figures began to rise from the crowd and emerge into the sky: Kayden and Milena. As soon as they went up, all eyes were fixed on them.
"Milena! What do you think you’re doing?" Lucas shouted, breaking the silence. Milena’s response was something he didn’t expect.
"My master has an invitation for some people. I just arranged what he needed." The situation got worse when Kayden, appearing out of nowhere, revealed himself to be the duo’s superior.
"Hello, people of this city. My name is Kayden Heart and I am the one true human god..." Kayden was unable to continue, as Lucas interrupted again.
"Blasphemy! Who do you think you are? You..." He was unable to continue speaking as his vision went black and his mana sense completely disappeared, leaving him blind. The last thing he heard before his head was cut off was Kayden’s authoritative speech.
"Hush, worm." The attack was not felt by anyone, and Lucas’ head began to fall. At this moment, there was not even a sound of breathing. To ordinary people, Kayden demonstrated his strength as a god by killing a god with just two words.
For the other two mages in the third realm, the situation was even worse. They couldn’t understand how it all happened and began to feel the same fear as Milena. Meanwhile, Kayden continued his speech.
"As I was saying, I selected 500 special people to follow me. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you. Many of you know about the realms and must know that your gods are on the third level, but... me?" Kayden activated his path to the maximum and began to gather all the mana from three kilometers around him.
Within seconds, the amount of mana in his hand was completely ridiculous, capable of killing a mage in the first realm through mana poisoning.
"I am in the fifth realm, the true realm of the gods." Kayden used all this mana and threw a completely gigantic mana slash into the skies that split the clouds into two halves by a few hundred meters. At this moment, he had the attention of every person on the floor.
"What I offer you is the opportunity to reach higher realms, and learn mystical techniques. Furthermore, we have the protection of one of my sons, the cat god Felix." As soon as he said that, Felix appeared floating next to Kayden with his third realm aura.
Everyone’s first reaction was fear, but when they understood what Kayden had said, their morale became even greater. He was someone capable of taming one of the legendary beasts told in the stories.
"But…" Kayden paused dramatically. "The place where we are going has an epidemic of a type of disease that not even I am capable of curing. It is rare and only chooses people who no longer want to live. In a way, it takes suicidal people to another life. I’m going give you a few minutes to discuss among yourselves what you want to do."
As soon as Kayden finished his last words, silence prevailed for a few seconds, and then conversation broke out everywhere. While they were arguing, the two third-realm mages appeared in front of Kayden and knelt.
"God Kayden, I hope you accept our entry as your servants," Julian said, kneeling in the air, followed by Gabriel. Kayden looked at them for a few seconds, sending a shiver down their spines.
"I don’t want you. Be content with being able to live," Kayden said, in a harsh sentence that caught them both by surprise and made them instinctively move away. Like two weaklings, they simply flew away and watched the situation. Even though they were proud, they still had more attachment to their lives.
After 30 minutes, the conversations calmed down and Kayden resumed speaking.
"I will begin calling out the names that have been selected. Keep in mind that there are some additional terms that you will not be able to refuse when hanging out with me. It is nothing that will harm your lives, but failure to follow them will result in immediate death," Kayden said, without giving people much time to organize themselves.
He explained that they could bring direct family members such as children and parents, but friends and acquaintances were not allowed. Each person Kayden called stood up and brought a few people with them into the sky behind Kayden.
The process took a few hours and even ended at night. The city was lit by dozens of torches. Many people ended up refusing, but for some, Kayden just left it aside, while for others he considered it essential, and he promised some rewards.
In the end, around 2300 people gathered in heaven, from children to the elderly. It was close to the number Kayden expected. Many on the list were chosen exactly for this reason, practically everyone there had 3 or 2 rays in their advances.
