This time, the Divine Enthronement scheme devised by Audis and Xiao Lan ultimately ended in failure following Hiromi Jounouchi''s demand that Xiao Lan surrender the faith it had collected, but Chen Yu held considerable appreciation for Xiao Lan and Audis''s ideas. After some consideration, he still allowed Audis and Xiao Lan to retain their existing followers and subordinates. As for whether to continue expanding their power, Chen Yu did not make a decision.


    The farce came to an end, and Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi continued their routine of finishing dinner, watching television, and taking a bath before they bothy in bed ready to rest.


    "Mr. Chen Yu, do you think bing divine really is that tempting?" Hiromi Jounouchi asked, holding a dazzling and colorful gemstone in her hand, seemingly lost in thought. Spread out on her legs was her "Crimson Hymn," with pages open to knowledge about Divine Enthronement written in Dragonic Language.


    The gemstone in Hiromi Jounouchi''s hand was precisely the faith collected by Xiao Lan and Audis. However, this form of gemstone was a secret technique of the Giant Dragon n, whichpressed intangible faith into a tangible gemstone, satisfying the dragons'' fascination with shiny things while also making it convenient to collect and preserve.


    For dragons, intangible faith certainly could notpare to tangible gemstones.


    Perhaps due to her Dragon Bloodline, Hiromi Jounouchi''s eyes seemed particrly enraptured when looking at the Faith Gemstone in her hand. In fact, when Yu Chen was given these Faith Gemstones by Xiao Lan and Audis, Hiromi Jounouchi felt an impulse to im these shiny darlings as her own the moment she saw them, and Xiao Lan almost reverted to its giant dragon form to defend these little treasures.


    However, in the end, after a "friendly" negotiation, Xiao Lan and Audis managed to preserve most of their harvest, but Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi each obtained a Faith Gemstone as well.


    "To be a higher existence, to have an immortal life that never ages or perishes, that temptation, Hiromi, you might not feel it much, but there are indeed too few people in this world who can resist the lure of eternity!" Yu Chen couldn''t help but sigh at Hiromi Jounouchi''s question, "Moreover, bing deities also means more powerful strength and supreme honor. For those who have the qualifications to consider Divine Enthronement, power, glory, worship, prestige... the benefits that Divine Enthronement can bring are irresistible to them. Even the most rational sages cannot disy more willpower than a child at the sight of a cream cake when faced with the endless knowledge that godhood can bring."


    "It sounds truly terrifying, the Deification Ritual itself looks terrifying as well." Hiromi Jounouchi ced the Faith Gemstone onto the open pages of "Crimson Hymn." She had already read carefully about the Deification Ritual in the "Crimson Hymn," and it was almost identical to what Yu Chen had previously described. The biggest difference was that the Blood Knights did not need to fill an area with death and corpses; they just needed to continuously cultivate their Blood River, and by merging it with the world, they could usurp the world''sws and sessfully enact Divine Enthronement.


    While it seemed less cruel than the Death School''s method of using death and corpses to contaminate an area, the Blood School''s Blood River was not conjured out of thin air, nor could it be stolen like the Nether River. It had to be forged with countless bloodshed and ughter.


    So although Chen Yu always appeared to be a doctor who saved lives and healed the injured, the necromancy spells he learned were also used by him to save people, in reality, necromancy was never an existence of mercy and kindness from the start. Even if the user''s heart was set on doing good, the knowledge rted to death would never feel warm and intimate; what it brings is only eternal death.


    "Don''t think too much, if Hiromi, you don''t want to use plundering methods to achieve Divine Enthronement, then letting Xiao Lan and the others collect faith, ignite the Divine me, and then you obtaining Divinity from Xiao Lan is also the same," Chen Yu said to Hiromi Jounouchi as he looked at the reluctance and confusion on her face,forting her with a smile, "I know, Hiromi, you haven''t turned around your thoughts yet, but you don''t need to take these too seriously. Knowledge is just knowledge, whether it''s evil or not simply depends on how we choose to use this knowledge. You can use necromancy spells to save people, just as you can use nature spells to ughter. Those Druids who advocate for evolution and the survival of the fittest—could you really say they are of a kind nature?" Explore more at My Virtual Library Empire


    Chen Yu''s words made Hiromi Jounouchi shake her head. Of course, she understood what he meant; these were beliefs about a God of Nature that were recorded both in the "Crimson Hymn" and the "Multiverse Universal Necromancy Spell Compendium." Although they were called Druids too, just like those Druids who revered nature and harmony, this branch of Druids followed nature''s cruelest aspect, where all things evolve through brutalpetition and ughter to weed out the weak, and only the strong could survive the ruthlesspetition.


    This branch of Druids was starkly different from other Druids; they didn''t care about the bnce of nature. Their doctrine was to plunder and extract to their greatest ability; races and individuals that could not secure what they needed for survival from the harshpetition of nature were existences meant to be eliminated by nature, unable to adapt to thews of nature, the weak were only suitable to be fodder for the strong''s survival.


    Indeed, even other Druids who cherished bnce and harmony, unless they were those rare neutrally aligned and peace-loving beings, would wish for cities worldwide to be destroyed, all traces of human civilization eradicated, and for everything to return to a time of savagery, surviving like wild beasts—these Druids were not exactly benevolent existences either.


    "I understand what you mean, Mr. Chen Yu, it''s just that this knowledge is really... sigh," Hiromi Jounouchi sighed, a helpless shake of her head indicating that this cruel and bloody knowledge was too much for her to ept, given that she hadn''t yet shifted her way of thinking and seeing the world from that of an ordinary person''s.


    Although she was trying hard to ept and learn all of this, she still couldn''t manage to view it all correctly and objectively like Chen Yu did.


    "Sorry, Mr. Chen Yu, perhaps I haven''t changed my mindset yet. I will try hard to adapt to my changes," Hiromi Jounouchi acknowledged her problem, and amidst her sighs, she quickly tried to collect her emotions and apologized to Chen Yu.


    "No need to apologize, everyone has their own way of looking at things and issues, and you shouldn''t force yourself to ept all of this," Chen Yu didn''t mind Hiromi Jounouchi''s mindset. After all, even for himself, it was only after gradually changing his own mindset that he could now ept the various necromancy knowledge recorded in the "Multiverse Universal Necromancy Spell Compendium."
