Abel had been in an exceptionally good mood for the entire month. Everything had gone just as he had imagined.
Naturally, he could not kill twenty clerics at once on a regular basis. However, after gaining experience from this incident, he had found another source of cleric souls that could be transformed into the "Book of Inheritance."
He now bestowed one "Book of Inheritance" through divine blessing every three days. He was also careful when choosing the regions where he blessed believers. He could not bestow the "Book of Inheritance" repeatedly within the same temple's area, nor could he let the temple sense a sudden increase in clerics.
His clerics had recently spread across more than a dozen small-town-level dioceses. Although he had only bestowed a dozen or so "Books of Inheritance" and gained a dozen or so clerics, the Faith Power they generated was already far greater than that provided by the seventeen thousand Holy Knights.
From this perspective, using clerics to receive Faith Power was truly the best method of controlling believers and a stable source of Faith Power.
However, when he returned to the Dark World every night to fight and cultivate, he could not receive Faith Power, and all that Faith Power was wasted.
But there was nothing he could do about it. He kept comforting himself that this was unexpected wealth. There were not many ways he could use Faith Power, and he did not need very much of it at present.
Still, Abel understood very well that even the powerful Outer Heavenly Demons were constantly collecting Faith Power, which showed how precious this energy was.
Thus, storing Faith Power was preparation for his future. It was also preparation for the energy within the Crystal Angel Statue to advance from gold to dark gold.
