'Selecting my followers has really been a much better plan.' Standing on the same spot he was when the Sage attacked, Thomas tied up his hair and sighed.
It all began when he got the rewards when he inherited Prometheus' Name. He unlocked two things, Divinity and Faith.
Divinity wasn't just a simple energy, it represented a deity's standing and authority. Normality it wasn't a requirement to be a deity to possess divinity as well since quite a lot of their descendants inquired a bit of divinity as well.
That very thing caused lot's of problems on earth and also caused stories about witches, demons and monsters when
His own divinity was just like that, making the present him more like a Demigod. All Celestial Skills and above like his the newly-acquired
When he saw that, Thomas changed minds since there was something else he wanted to test. Taking one Daemon outside, he charged the Luminous Ark with the most pure morning sunshine and infused with Divinity then shoot it at a minimum potency.
Since the Damage it was done was too weak to kill that tainted White Fox Daemon, the light attribute continued in the morning sunshine together with divinity seeped into the depths of that Daemon washing away all traces of corruption.
Soon, all that was left was a pure white fox, it's power also reversed by one level yet it's aura even strengthened by quite a bit.
Then he kept doing the same with all five hundred plus until all Daemons were purified, but of course only those who he felt hadn't done anything too evil or those who were forced to join the Daemons. Their strengths also reversed a one and even two levels yet their bodies were completed renewed after the purification.
Their bloodline grew thicker making so their grades increased to the grades 7, 8 and a couple even reached Grade 9.
Well, following this world ranking, Thomas' Titan lineage would go beyond even grade Ten. It must be known the Mortal Plane is only the lowest of the Nine, to mention the existence of singular universes
After purging all traces of the aura of sin, he told them about the origins of the demons and told it was his duty as a messenger of the gods to deliver judgement to Arthorias and his evil deeds.
Within a couple hours, he had fully converted his first believers getting quite a good amount of Faith. Similarly, he can also use this faith to bestow blessings to others so it was a win-win relationship.
Even now, he could clearly see threads faith flowing into him from the former Daemons, Lulu and the other beasts as well.
Soon, Thomas reached the the entrance to the city of Glamadom from where he could guess how everything turned into ruins. Now he was close by, the giant horrendous form of Arthorias looked at least three times worse to look at than before.
With that size, everybody from in the Xamak Mountain must be seeing it as well.
During this time he took the chance to do a quick examination of Arthorias and noticed which of teh auras of sin had taken other him, Gluttony.
Yeah, this one is indeed a bit trickery than the Sage. While greed's side effect were of make one's stronger than more they want something, it takes too long for the effects to make any different and the growth-prospective is not high when there nothing to awake his inner greed.
Gluttony, however, was different. There weren't any requirements and all one wanted was to eat everything and anything, and make all those eaten a part of one's own strength.
It was a old belief ingrained even in many ancient human civilizations that believed feeding on the enemies flesh and heart could make the strength their enemies once possessed into their own.
Unlike greed, the hosts for gluttony had unparented rate of growth and would rise from mere mortals to deadly threats in weeks. Even Arthur's sin force which had covered all of Glamadon and beyond was slowly eating away the vitality and foundation of those near it.
It must also be noted this Gluttony Sin Force was condensed very recently, yet it's grade was an entire level above the Sage.
And of course, he didn't forget to position ate all the Twelve Mirrors that composed the Lumine high above Glamadon to completely pulverize this city along with Arthorias. It would take quite some time to charge it, though.
During this time, Thomas believe he could minimize the causalities.
'I guess running away from the that Wraith has put too much terror in their minds that escape is all they think about.'
His eyes then caught sight of a deer mother and her son that looked no older than 2, both had been turned into Daemons yet their strengths were pretty ordinary. It must be the ordinary citizens that were turned against their own will.
Arthorias who had been feasting on the remaining few Krias had successfully devoured the majority of his followers had just finished eating the last one and started feeling hungry.
"What a great feast, but I'm still hungry." Groaning to himself, his none suddenly cough a very attractive fragrance and it giant neck turned around.
All others had left the scene as soon they realized their Lord had gone crazy, but the mother and son were unlock enough to be caught between a fallen stone tower and the ruins of a wooden manor which blocked the way to the exit.
Seeing only the mother and son pair near him, it's bely moved once more and pounced towards the pair without a second of hesitation.
It seemed that the current Arthorias didn't even care if someone had enough strength to benefit their cultivation, as long as everything could be eaten nothing else mattered.
"Hey, could you look this way please? I want this slap to hit from the right angle."
'WHA?"
A giant open hand came out nowhere and slapped the ugly monster right in the face, the strength on that hand was so big the monster gave a few backflips before crashing on the city's clock tower.
Thomas waved his arms and formed over a dozen hands to lift the rubble, he then shouted to the mother and son pair who were still frozen in shock. "Over here! Escape as fast you can, you need to keep your son safe, right?"
Thomas' seemed to pull the mother out of trance, she picked up her face and carried her son as she made her way out of there towards the gates.
Just as they passed by Thomas, he noticed two thin auras ingrained deep within their hearts. It was took weak for it to have any negative effects.
'I have the Archis now so it should be easier.' By concentrating on the feeling the Heart of Primordial Sin gave him, Thomas tried to feel the auras with his sense and and both seemed very meek to himself as well a hint of excitement, just like a pair of puppies seeing their owner for the first time after a long trip.
It took on effort at all and the auras voluntary left both mother and son on the moment they passed by him and were straight into the his Heart.
Thomas firmed his grip on the Necrospear while hundreds of Daemons stormed out of the gates without even throwing a glance at him.
Distinguishing the elemental particles in the air, Thomas drew over all the particles that belonged to his own elemental affinities, Light, Shadow, Fire, Earth and infused everything in his spear.
"Now it's just you and me, you ugly thing."
