"This... this is God-Conferring Ceremony?!..."

Soren stood at the foot of the wall of the City of Wealth, looking up at the sky, a look of shock appearing on his face. He hadn't expected to see such a familiar scene again so soon. Soren stopped and listened intently. At this moment, almost every Legendary Professional in the world would sense something, for what they were seeing indicated the imminent appearance of a new Deity. The only question was whether the Vampire God Child would achieve godhood in one fell swoop, or first create a False Deity to increase his power.

Becoming True God is by no means an easy thing, Soren had some doubts about whether he had collected enough faith!

Indistinctly.

Soren seemed to hear a prayer that transcended time and space. This was an important part of the God-Conferring Ceremony, a way of informing the world of his Portfolio. The prayer was a crucial element; anyone who dared to utter a single careless word in it, or even unintentionally add a few extra words, could be subjected to a furious attack and retaliation from other Deity, ultimately resulting in disaster and Destruction.

"My Lord Reinhard!..."

"You are the ruler of Vampire!... You are the Avatar of fear!... You are the most powerful Son of Night!..."

"My Lord Reinhard!"

"You are the protector of Vampire!... You are the hunter of the night!..."

"My Lord Reinhard!"

"Your name will be sacred among Vampire!... You will be greater than the Progenitor!... The fear of mortals will become your Divine Power!... Their dread will make you stronger!... Your kingdom will protect our souls!... From this day forward, the souls of Vampire will not return to nothingness!... As long as we believe in the great Vampire overlord!... Our souls will all be reborn in your God's Realm!..."

"My Lord Reinhard!"

"You will raise high your kingdom!... Become one of the stars in the sky!..."

The faint sound of prayer became clearer.

Soren's expression gradually turned amused, and he said in a low, hoarse voice, "This guy is really audacious! Isn't he afraid that the other Deity will join forces against him?"

The first verse represents the name of the Vampire God Child.

Whatever his name was before, from this moment on he is Reinhard. This name is his divine name. From this day forward, anyone who utters this name will resonate with him. As his Divine Power Divine Rank grow stronger, in the future, he will be able to see what happens to anyone who utters this name within a certain period of time. Although this will require a considerable amount of power. If his Divine Rank becomes even stronger, he will even be able to sense and see those who silently recite this name in their hearts.

This is the power of the Deity!

The Deity stands above all things, looking down upon this world; his name will become sacred!

Therefore, the prayer contains the line, "Your name will be holy among Vampire." This is a very important line, signifying that his cultivation of followers is primarily concentrated among Vampire, and he will not compete with other Deity for followers. If he dared to change the prayer to "Your name will be holy among all things," Soren was certain that temples throughout the world would immediately attack his followers and power. Even a few minor errors or ambiguities in this prayer could potentially plunge Deity into utter ruin!

"You are the ruler of Vampire!... You are the Avatar of fear!... You are the most powerful Son of Night!..."

This is the prayer in the first row.

Reinhard's core Portfolio is that of the [God of Vampires], and his important domains are [Fear] and [Son of Night].

"Son of Night" is a general term for Vampire, and also for many creatures of the Dark Domain. This suggests that he may extend his Portfolio to other Dark Species. However, his core remains Vampire and fear. As the Fear God Child, he cleverly prioritizes Vampire; otherwise, he would have no way to achieve godhood.

Because the will of the Demon Lord of Fear still exists in the world, the Portfolio Fear remains in the Abyss.

"You are the protector of Vampire!... You are the hunter of the night!..."

This statement carries a significant meaning; it signifies his desire to become the Overdeity of Vampire, and, due to the nature of Vampire, to expand his domain to include hunting. If he were to kill Deity who holds the hunting Portfolio in the future, he could use this as a stepping stone to take control of that Portfolio. However, this prayer would obviously also incur Deity enmity of other gods who possess hunting domains or hunting Portfolio. Unsurprisingly, the followers of the God of Hunt would attack him, mercilessly killing his followers.

"Your name will be sacred among Vampire!... You will be greater than the Progenitor!... The fear of mortals will become your Divine Power!... Their dread will make you stronger!... Your kingdom will protect our souls!... From this day forward, the souls of Vampire will not return to nothingness!... As long as we believe in the great Vampire overlord!... Our souls will all be reborn in your God's Realm!..."

This passage contains the core content of the prayer.

Representing his divine covenant after his deification and his bestowal of grace upon his believers, he will protect the souls of Vampire, preventing their demise. He will surpass the Progenitor, bringing fear to humanity. His power stems from fear and awe, not worship or kindness. This is tantamount to telling mortals that he is a new Evil Deity who strengthens his power by spreading fear, inspiring awe and faith in him. He will become one of the Archfiend of the Evil Alignment, with Vampire as his core domain. Fear is the source of his power.

This is the most primitive prayer, which will gradually increase or decrease as the Deity change. The changes in the prayer are very important; for example, Lady of Silver Moon's recent prayers have included more words related to women, children, and Lady of Silver Moon, indicating that she intends to extend her Portfolio to other areas. [Knowledge; Deity!]

As for the last sentence...

That was just a routine closing remark. Even True God would find it difficult to establish a God's Realm God's Realm in a short time and transform it into stars in the sky.

Unless he is Wizard of Legendary or higher who has created Demiplane and then directly transformed Demiplane into the God's Realm, God's Realm would need to gradually open up space, expand that space into a kingdom, and eventually evolve into a God's Realm at some point. This process could take hundreds of years, especially if one creates their own God's Realm instead of inheriting one. This is an extremely demanding process that consumes a great deal of Power of Faith Divine Power, essentially Deity creating a new world.

Hunt Temple.

A ferocious-looking Hunt Priest suddenly rose to his feet, letting out a low growl that shook the entire temple. A large group of hunter followers knelt on the ground, demonstrating his immense authority and power. The Hunt Priest gazed down at the crowd and roared, "False Deity! False Deity!!!"

"How dare you lay your hands on my My Lord's domain!"

"Immediately dispatch hunters to find those damned Vampire! Slaughter them all! Slaughter them all! Leave not a single one alive! We must massacre those Vampire! No one may lay a finger on my My Lord's domain!"

Vampire are hunters by nature.

They feed on intelligent beings, so expanding their Hunt Domain is very easy for them.

A group of hunters nearing high rank stepped forward, including temple fanatics wearing skull masks. They silently bowed and knelt on one knee before the Priest. Then they turned and walked out of the temple. Anyone who dared to encroach upon the Deity realm was their enemy, especially since the hunting realm was the core power of the God of Hunt. This was tantamount to threatening the God of Hunt's most important Portfolio. The Deity showed no mercy in suppressing potential enemies!

Silver Moon Temple.

A dignified and noble female priest, dressed in a pure white priest's robe with a crescent moon on her chest, gazed into the distance. She frowned slightly and said, "The God of Vampires? The growth of Vampire will bring disaster to mortals! This is something Lady of Silver Moon cannot allow! Send out Silver Moon Stalker to investigate their whereabouts! We must find a way to eliminate these False Deity ' followers!"

"The power of Evil must not be allowed to be strengthened once again!"

A squad of Silver Moon Guard obeyed the order and departed. At the same time, sounds of movement could be heard within the temple; the birth of a new Deity was a very serious matter.

It may become more common in the future, but this is, after all, the first time in hundreds of years.

Holy Light Church.

A solemn-looking man stood up, his gaze piercing through space, and declared in a majestic voice, "The power of Evil has been amplified! Although the Lord of Radiance has not answered our prayers, the power of the Holy Light will never dissipate!"

"Pass on my orders!"

"Summon the clergy!... Find that false False Deity and his Vampire followers!... Purify them!!!..."

Night Temple.

Plane female priest with a sinister look gazed at the sky and whispered, "Has a False Deity been born? As Son of Night, he dares not show reverence or submission to the great Lady of Night. Truly an arrogant Vampire!"

"Beware of them, await the Divine Oracle of the Lady of Night."

Scene after scene unfolded.

However, the strongest reaction came from the followers of the Demon Lord of Fear. In a dark Basement, a ball of eerie blue flame roared, "Shameless thief!... He stole my My Lord's divine Divine Power!... Damn thief!... My Lord's power has weakened!... He took a portion of the Fear Domain!..."

"You bunch of useless trash!... Find the Fear Witch Lillian now!..."

"Only she can stop this thief!... The power of fear cannot be dispersed!... Send out all the Apostle of Fear!... Immediately launch a great purge of all Vampire!...

"We must kill as many of his potential followers as possible!..."

The Investiture of the Gods was just the beginning.

Once the God-Conferring Ceremony is complete, even greater Slaughter is brewing. Large numbers of Vampire may gather around this sole Vampire Deity, and other Deity' followers will also launch an attack on them.

This was an incredibly brutal process!

This could last for hundreds of years, unless something earth-shattering suddenly disrupts them.

This battle will continue until one side Destruction or retreats.
