Chereads / Revival of Gods: I Know This God / Chapter 3 - The Black Statue Is the Supreme Main God

Chapter 3 - The Black Statue Is the Supreme Main God

 Only a few people in the world could gain cultivation talents. 

 Otherwise, Enke, who just awakened a low-grade special talent, would not be ranked as a promising student in Divine Academy.

 Countless people that awakened low-grade talents would not begin their cultivation. There were two reasons.

 Firstly, cultivation was resource-consuming. The gain was not in direct proportion to the effort so no one would be stupid to do it.

 Secondly, those who were not prominent aristocrats couldn't get enough resources.

 The resources on the earth were in the hands of the gods, and the space was also carved up. Therefore, it was almost impossible for ordinary people to get more resources and achieve high-level cultivation with their low-grade talents.

 "Trust me," Matthew said and then stopped talking.

 Only with practice could one know the truth.

 The process of awakening was not complicated. It was very fast to The students just needed to choose a statue and call out the god's real name. If the statue didn't react, then they could choose another one. The ceremony progressed fast.

 Before Sierra could say anything else, It was Matthew's turn.

 In front of him was a chubby female student.

 When she walked toward the platform, she even staggered. She stood under the three statues and observed for a long time before she came to the Goddess of Forest and stammered.

 "The most beautiful Goddess of Forest, you have given life to the mountain and forests, and you are broad-minded."

 "The forests are your weapons and your territory."

 "The most beautiful Goddess of Forest, Syrinx, please help me awaken my talent."

 Hearing the girl's prayer, almost all the teachers and the clergy laughed with kindness. They also experienced this when they were young so they knew the girl was tense. Looking at herm they remembered their past days as students.

 But the next moment, they were bug-eyed in wonderment and stopped laughing.

 Because a light-green light came from above Goddess of Forest's stone statue and then fell on the girl's head.

 It was a special talent!

 An extraordinary one!

 "It's a high-grade talent called Healing Light!" On the high platform, someone who recognized the talent exclaimed.

 Healing Light was one of Goddess of Forest's talents. When fighting in places with grass, mountains, and vegetation, people with this talent were almost invincible. Most importantly, they could transfer their talents to their comrades.

 In the past, Healing Light played an important role in the wars that the gods defeated the invaders with a force inferior in number. 

 "My god! How could she be so lucky to get a talent of Goddess of Forest?"

 "With this girl, Academy of Forest will have a better reputation..." The people from Academy of Death showed an envy look.

 The girl awakened her talents from Goddess of Forest, so naturally, she would go to Academy of Forest. No one dared to disobey the wills of the Gods.

 The messengers of the Academy of Forest all showed happy smiles on their faces because they would get rich rewards from their god.

 The girl on the high platform opened her eyes and was a little overwhelmed to see everyone's reaction. It was the first time she had seen such a scene.

 "You're a lucky girl. We'll take you with us to Academy of Forest later." The clergy under the stone statue of the Goddess of Forest said gently with a loving smile.

 "Well, thank you." The girl nodded shyly and walked down the high platform, with all the people looking at her with envy.

 "Next one." A high-level talent appeared, making the clergy in charge of the awakening ceremony in high spirit, and he shouted.

 "Matthew, don't do anything stupid," Sierra said.

 It was Matthew's turn to awaken. Sierra felt uneasy and persuaded Matthew.

 She was afraid that Matthew would stick to his idea and choose the black statue that no one ever chose in the past centuries.

 "Which one will Matthew choose?" Everyone was amazed by the special talent called Healing Light just now, and they were more interested in the ceremony. At this moment, they all looked at Matthew and wondered which stone statue he would choose.

 Sierra fixed her eyes on Matthew; she was praying that Matthew would not do something stupid.

 Under everyone's gaze, Matthew walked slowly and firmly to the black statue.

 What was he doing?

 Trying to call out the real name of the black statue?

 "Matthew's not going to choose that black statue, is he?"

 "My God! He's out of his mind. This statue's been here since a long time ago. No one knows his real name."

 "How dare he..."

 On the high platform, Matthew didn't even look at God of Death and Goddess of Forest. He walked directly and slowly to the bottom of the black stone statue.

 Even the clergies in charge of the other two gods frowned slightly.

 Because they noticed that Matthew didn't even look at the two gods when he walked up to the high platform. In their eyes, Matthew's behavior was the greatest disrespect to the gods!

 "Young child, no one has called out the true name of this black stone statue. I advise you not to waste your time on it."

 "If you turn to supreme God of Death and beg for forgiveness, you may still have a chance to awaken your talent," the clergy said.

 Hearing the sarcasm in his words, Matthew frowned slightly and looked at him. Then he said, "God of Death? Supreme god?"

 Matthew's voice was not loud, but the platform was equipped with a sound system, so his words reached everyone's ears and caused an uproar.

 How dare he say such words in front of so many people?

 Didn't he know that insulting god was a sin?

 "Matthew, do you know what you're talking about?" The principal scolded.

 He could tell from Matthew's tone that Matthew was unhappy with God of Death being called the supreme god.

 Was he out of his mind?

 Even Sierra who was standing under the platform closed her eyes and held her forehead helplessly. 'What's wrong with Matthew today?'

 Matthew ignored the yelling and the scolding. He turned to everyone and said, "God of Death deserves respect, but it's an exaggeration to call it the supreme god. Because the supreme god is this black stone statue!"

 Everyone was confused by Matthew's words.

 The supreme god was not God of Death, but this ordinary black stone statue?

 The crowd was in an uproar again, and they were more puzzled. Did Matthew know the origin of the black stone statue?

 However, the followers of the God of Death and the clergies all glared at Matthew.

 "How dare you take such liberties! How dare you blaspheme the supreme God of Death!"

 It was unacceptable and intolerable that someone stood in front of God of Death and blaspheme it in public.

 The clergies from Academy of Dead were furious, and red lights appeared in their palms. The next moment, they shot at Matthew with the lights. Anyone who publicly insulted the supreme God of Death deserved to die!

 Matthew was not surprised or flustered when he saw the clergies from Academy of Dead attack him. He looked at them with disdain and smiled contemptuously.

 "Behave yourselves in front of the supreme main god Hades!" he said.
