Bloodline Origin Divine Art

Thousands of kilometers away from Chen Changhe, in the Kingdom of Camilla, the Divine Child Fritz Reiner looked at the beautiful woman beside him who possessed Half-Elves blood.

Her Elves blood gave her an extremely delicate appearance, while her human blood allowed her to avoid the gaunt figure typical of Elves.

As Divine Child, Fritz Reiner had seen all kinds of beautiful women, but he genuinely liked Countess Constantina the Earl.

Exhausted, Constantina drifted into a sweet slumber.

Her shoulders were slightly exposed, her fair skin shimmered under the light, and her long golden hair was dazzling, exuding a captivating charm.

Fritz Reiner couldn't resist kissing Constantina.

For a fifty-year-old man to encounter such a gem is absolutely his good fortune.

He always doted on Constantina, giving her power and status.

As the Divine Child, he was the de facto ruler of the Kingdom of Camilla.

The three Intermediate Divine Power deities in this plane govern their mortal followers in the same way.

They would send their offspring into mortal kingdoms to rule.

These Divine Child are the source of the bloodlines of various noble families.

Fritz Reiner has half the blood of the Goddess of Life in his body; he is her son.

Strictly speaking, the rulers of all the kingdoms on the Geshan Continent are Divine Child.

The same applies to the other two continents.

Those noble families were all descendants of the Divine Child.

He was not the first Divine Child to rule the Kingdom of Camilla, nor will he be the last.

Although in the Kingdom of Camilla, many people advised him to stay away from Constantina.

Their reasoning was that Constantina had betrayed the Goddess of Life and had been secretly worshipping the Goddess of Magic.

Many people have even produced irrefutable evidence.

However, Fritz Reiner reprimanded those men and still maintained his favor towards Constantina.

"A bunch of stupid idiots!"

"A bunch of idiots who've been driven mad by a game of faith!"

Fritz Reiner wore a mocking expression.

The scriptures of these three deities all proclaim this thing—

The three great gods are enemies who oppose each other and are irreconcilable foes.

However, only a very few people understand the truth of this world.

And he was one of them.

The three beings of Intermediate Divine Power belong to the same Pantheon and are siblings who share the same father.

Their father was a great being of Greater Divine Power.

Tens of millions of years ago, he left this plane and entered the Infinite Void to slumber, dividing his Pantheon into three parts and entrusting them to his three most valued children.

On the surface, the three Intermediate Divine Power are sworn enemies, but in reality, they still maintain a unity.

The main reason for maintaining this relationship is to better gather faith.

War and death can bring both hatred and glory.

It can maximize the exploitation of believers' faith to gain more benefits for them.

"Gods... are just a pack of hungry wolves!"

"A perpetually hungry wolf!"

God shepherds the world, taking mortals as lambs.

Lambs slaughtered at will.

In the eyes of the gods, each mortal is marked with a number.

These numbers represent the Power of Faith they can offer.

In order to completely exploit the Power of Faith, the gods resorted to all sorts of unscrupulous means.

As Divine Child, Fritz Reiner was not only the ruler of the kingdom but also the head of the Kingdom's Goddess of Life Church, overseeing missionary affairs within the kingdom.

This is especially clear.

"So what if you have faith in the Goddess of Magic?"

"By blood, the Goddess of Magic is my aunt!"

Hundreds of thousands of years ago, three Intermediate Divine Power deities had already divided the entire plane.

The map of the three continents has remained unchanged since then.

Even if Constantina acts as an inside agent, putting the kingdom at a disadvantage in the war against the Morant Kingdom, which is controlled by the Goddess of Magic, so what?

Even if the Morant Kingdom suffers a crushing defeat on the battlefield, it is impossible for it to destroy the Kingdom of Camilla.

At most, both sides will leave behind some corpses, then shake hands, make peace, and call it a day.

It's just a game.

There's no need to worry about temporary gains or losses.

"Moreover... victory or defeat on the battlefield is not the true victory or defeat."

Despite their defeat on the battlefield, the Kingdom of Camilla ironically garnered more faith in the Goddess of Life.

He was rewarded by the Goddess of Life for this.

Fritz Reiner's expression was somewhat strange.

In all honesty, he simply wanted to prevent the Goddess of Life from profiting from this.

As the Divine Child, he should be loyal to the Goddess of Life.

During his decades living in the Divine Domain, he indeed did just that.

Until thirty years ago, he descended from the Divine Domain to the Kingdom of Camilla and became its ruler.

In his second year of ruling the Kingdom of Camilla, he dealt with a massacre that wiped out an entire family.

A baron in the northern border of the kingdom suddenly killed his seven sons and three daughters.

Strangely, he, who was originally just an ordinary person, became a Sword Saint overnight.

His power comes from a secret technique called "Bloodline Origin," which allows him to gain immense strength by absorbing the bloodline of his relatives.

The baron was killed, and the Bloodline Origin Secret Art was sent to the capital.

This kind of secret technique was originally just trash for Fritz Reiner, who was born a demigod.

However, after studying the Bloodline Origin Secret Art, he discovered this fact—

This secret technique is a simplified version of the Bloodline Origin Divine Art, which can enhance the power of deities and the level of Divine Authority comprehension by absorbing the Divinity of relatives.

This secret technique originates from the Divine Domain of the Goddess of Life.

Then Fritz Reiner remembered something.

For millennia, three Intermediate Divine Power deities have been sending their Divine Child to the mortal worlds of different planes to rule their kingdoms.

Once the Divine Child advances from demigod to god, he can return to the Divine Domain.

Over the years, no fewer than five hundred of the Divine Child of the Goddess of Life have become deities.

But he had never heard of these deities in the Divine Domain.

"If... the goddess is also using the Bloodline Origin Divine Art...?"

That explains everything.

Those divine Divine Child who became gods must have all become the resources that enabled the goddess to become powerful.

Even a tiger won't eat its cubs.

But the Goddess of Life is not a tiger.

She is a deity.

Gods are more venomous than tigers.

She's capable of doing something like that.

From that day on, Fritz Reiner chose to lie low.

He indulged in debauchery and womanizing every day, behaving like a tyrant.

"As long as I don't become a god, I won't be harvested!"

"I want to be Divine Child for life!"

Over the decades, his strength has not increased at all compared to when he arrived; in fact, it has decreased considerably.

He could not openly defy the Goddess of Life.

However, he often chooses to deliberately do bad things.

The purpose of bringing Constantina into the harem was to cleverly transmit information from the battlefield.

But he never expected that he would fall in love with Constantina at first sight.

"It seems... Constantina has a younger brother."

Constantina's brother, Lance Lyny, was exiled to an oasis on the Love Lake in the Camilla Desert when she became an Earl.

"Lance Lyny seems to have been quite unruly these past few years..."

In order to deal with Constantina, his men have recently been considering bringing Lance Lynn back to the capital.

"Things that are an eyesore should be thrown far away."

"Go to the oasis by Love Lake in the Camilla Desert and bring me back Lance Lynn's head!"

Fritz Reiner suddenly spoke up.

There was no response; the room remained silent.

However, the shadows under the light seemed a bit dimmer than before.
