Ritual!

A quiet night.

Soren scribbled on a sheet of snow-white paper with a quill pen. Since returning to Port Nyanzaru, he finally had some time to study higher-level Spell. Soren had basically finished learning Spell below the third rank, but the difficulty of mastering Spell increased significantly as the rank rose. Perhaps it was due to his advancement to Demigod, but Soren's understanding of Arcane Magic seemed to have improved considerably. He could now master high-level Spell that he used to find difficult to understand at least twice as fast.

The specific reason is still unknown.

But it must be related to the power of Divine Rank, because even Soren, Divinity, couldn't do this before.

I still have a lot of Slaughter Experience stored up!

However, Soren was not in a hurry to improve his job level, because for him at the moment, the increase from one or two job levels would not be significant. The most important thing right now was to decide on his path.

That's right.

This is the path to the future!

While the realm of Deity is incredibly powerful, it also has a significant limitation: once power is formed, it is very difficult to change. Although Deity possess various powerful abilities, their own professions are fixed. Whether it's the Spider Queen or any other Deity, the profession with the highest rank becomes the core of their power.

Without a doubt!

Soren's current core power is the Rogue, but the path he truly desires is not that of the Rogue.

God of Half-Elves and Rogues.

The former is the narrowest definition of racial Portfolio, where the strength of one's Greater Divinity Divine Power is determined by the prosperity of the race. To be honest, the Half-Elf race has absolutely no potential to compare with humans, Elf, Dwarf, Orc. Even Halfling have powerful Deity protecting them, yet the Half-Elf have remained a Quasi-Deity barely holding on for so many years. Within the Half-Elf race, faith has always been divided, with the influence of Human Pantheon and Elven Pantheon being very strong.

Soren never intended to cling to the [Half-Elf] Portfolio. It was merely a stepping stone for his future.

Rogue Portfolio.

The highest level of this Portfolio ever reached was [Medium Divinity], and that was entirely due to the Shadow Domain holding it together; Soren didn't have high expectations for it at all.

As a former top-tier Rogue!

Soren was well aware of the advantages of this profession, but he was equally aware of its disadvantages.

The Rogue is an indispensable part of his power, but it must never become the core area of his Portfolio, otherwise his growth will be limited. This is because the Rogue's potential for improvement is greatly reduced after entering the Legendary Domain.

What good is having the best survival skills?

Soren has passed the point where he only needed to survive; he now needs greater fighting strength, especially when he faces the Demon Lord of Fear!

Hand of Despair.

This top-tier Legendary Assassin is a prime example; his strengths and weaknesses are equally prominent. These might not be a problem for mortals, but they are quite fatal to Deity.

Soren cannot establish his godhood around the Rogue, otherwise he would have to fight the Lord of Shadows head-on!

There are no class restrictions for racial Portfolio.

Before Soren truly ascends to godhood, he has one more chance to choose his core profession, because changing it afterward will be very difficult. Rogue's combat power is greatly limited after reaching the Legendary Domain, unless they advance to [Lord of Shadows] or other special professions. These things are fine for mortals, but for Soren, who has stepped into the realm of Deity, it means he will have to delve into the [Shadow] realm to achieve further advancement.

Otherwise, he would be stuck on this!

He must eliminate the Lord of Shadows on this path, and the Lord of Shadows will also consider Soren, after his ascension to godhood, a major enemy.

At present.

Soren's success rate in defeating the [Lord of Shadows] is 0!

Tap tap tap.

Soft footsteps sounded outside the door. Soren rubbed his forehead and put down his quill. He initially thought it was Goria, but when he realized he had been intimately involved with Goria for two whole days, and that she had happily entered the Shadow Plane this afternoon to conduct her research on the Elemental Pool, Soren knew it definitely wasn't her.

Who could it be?

Soren frowned slightly, then heard a knock on the door.

Come in.

As soon as Soren activated his senses, he knew who was outside the door, because she possessed a Demon aura similar to Soren own.

--The Fallen Witch.

Goria's mother. Chosen of the Succubus Queen.

The door opened gently.

The Fallen Witch appeared before Soren, dressed in a black Wizard's robe, slit at the thigh, resembling a cheongsam. Her long, shapely legs were clad in black stockings, the finest spider silk from the Underdark possessing an indescribable beauty. Her smooth, long hair was styled in a noblewoman's updo. The Fallen Witch wore no adornments; through the thin Wizard's robe, one could see the slightly protruding nipples of her high breasts.

She wasn't wearing anything underneath.

Soren's breathing became a little rapid, but his mind was a bit chaotic, and he had a slight headache.

He was wary of this woman.

However, it is undeniable that I was attracted by her beauty. Unlike Goria's beauty, her mother, the Fallen Witch, possessed a different kind of strange charm, which was more Evil, more depraved, and more alluring.

You seem troubled.

The Fallen Witch's expression was calm, as if her attire wasn't meant to seduce Soren at all. She walked directly to Soren, her round, pert buttocks settling on the desk. A subtle aura of desire permeated the air, not from any Spell effect, but from her innate Charm.

Corinna looked down at Soren with a dazed gaze, her fair fingers gently tracing the nipples on her chest, her breathing quickening.

She had been paying close attention to Soren's changes.

Feeling Soren's accelerated heartbeat, the Fallen Witch's lips curled into a mocking smile. She lightly touched Soren's cheek with her index finger, as if speaking to herself, "Since you intend to enter the realm of the Deity, then none of the rules of the mortal world can bind you!..."

"The Hit Points of Deity are very long."

"It's an incredibly long time! In the endless river of time, are you really going to spend it all alone, instead of having more people around you?"

"Giggle!"

"You know what? Sometimes I feel like you're really Evil! But other times I find that you're more bound by your own desires than I am!"

"Ah!..."

The Fallen Witch leaped into the air and landed on Soren's lap. A pair of strong hands slipped inside her clothes, grasping the full, ripe fruit of her breasts. Rapid breathing, a racing heartbeat, and the hardness and heat she felt on her buttocks caused a blush to rise on the Fallen Witch's beautiful face, and her breathing became increasingly erratic.

Soren felt the difference in his palm; it was larger and softer than Goria's, offering a different kind of ultimate pleasure.

I massaged it like that for a while.

He slowly withdrew his hand, his expression gradually calming down, but still holding the Fallen Witch before him, he said slowly, "Tell me. Why did you come here tonight? You should know the impact this Goria! You should also know I don't want to hurt her! Without a good reason, as her mother, you wouldn't have come tonight!..."

silence.

The Fallen Witch stiffened for a moment, then slowly pulled away from Soren's embrace. She stood up, straightened her Wizard's robes, and said in a seemingly calm voice, "I knew I couldn't hide it from you!..."

"This is a ritual to please the Succubus Queen, Malignant!... She bestowed upon me Divinity power!... And I must please her at the appropriate time!...

"A depraved and forbidden ritual of pleasure!..."

"This ritual must be completed, or I will be punished by her, and it will be an extreme torment, depravity, and Evil."

"If you're unwilling to help me complete the ceremony."

"Then I'll go out and find others now, and kill them all after the ritual is over!..."

At this point, the Fallen Witch's voice trembled slightly, but she still appeared calm as she said, "My relationship with Goria's father is based on mutual benefit. We've met less than five times, and no other man has ever touched me. You are the best choice for me, and probably the most suitable person to please the Succubus Queen in the ritual."

"But if you refuse, I'll have to perform the ceremony in another way!..."

At this point, the Fallen Witch's body trembled even more violently.

"Well!..."

Soren sighed, rose to his feet, and offered his hand to the Fallen Witch, saying slowly, "Take it!... I've witnessed the corrupting rituals used to please the Succubus Queen!... This level is far from enough to satisfy her!..."

The Fallen Witch trembled slightly, then a strange crimson flushed her face.

She took out a leather whip made of special silk, and with slightly trembling hands, placed it in Soren's palm. Then, she gently removed her clothes, turned her back to Soren, and revealed her fair back and round buttocks to him. The Fallen Witch slowly knelt down with her back to him, uttering strange low moans, as if calling for something.

An invisible energy field emerged.

On the Fallen Witch's collarbone, an eerie kiss mark suddenly seemed to come alive, and in an instant, her entire skin flushed red.

--[Queen's Kiss]!

The Succubus Queen Malignant's blessing ritual is also Crest of Evil and depravity.

It can grant mortals immense power, even directly enhancing their attributes, but it also means dragging their souls into a deeper Abyss of depravity.

Snap!

A crisp cracking sound of whipping rang out.

A red mark appeared on the Fallen Witch's fair back. She trembled violently, her breathing became rapid, her pretty face flushed, and she couldn't help but let out a groan that was hard to tell whether it was from pain or pleasure!
