[Jasmine POV]
It has already been a couple of weeks since Ela and I arrived at this shrine and started our new lives. We have started to get used to our daily routines. After the ritual, we both felt strangely like our bodies were new. That was when Charlotte began to explain our duties to us. We had to get a lot of training, whether in the combat department, service department, or just studying; we had to be ready for everything immediately.
But my favourite part of my day is going to the prayer room. We had our first contact with Lady Amaterasu in the prayer room. What we did in the prayer room was, as the name suggests, pray, but not the regular prayer. No. We could drink the addictive liquid, and we had to cum over a statue. After cumming, we had to kiss that same statue and hope that our prayer reached our Lord.
We do those prayers two times a day, and I can't complain about them because I have grown to enjoy them. I also found another person strange to meet for the first time: Lady Kali. Lady Kali was a weird woman. She was warm but cold at the same time, strict but loose. She was just everything a perfect teacher would be, but I found it weird because I could see a man behind her when I looked at her.
This man looked like they were connected, and when I looked closer, I could see lines forming between the man and Lady Kali and between the man and every woman in this building. Even I was connected with this man. Lady Kali said I was lucky because I awakened one of my dormant magical abilities.
She looked at me with wide eyes when I explained what I saw. She explained that the man I was seeing was most probably our Lord, and the lines I was seeing were fate and faith lines. Because, you see, the moment we accepted him as our Lord, our fates were already connected. That is why there is a fate line. The faith line is different. It is the connection you feel when you first connect with the Lord.
The faith line ensures that the Lord hears your prayers and, when he wishes, rewards you for them. It also becomes thicker and stronger the more in favour you are in the Lord's eyes. After she explained that she gave me two rings, one for me and one for my sister, she said that this ring was one of the Lord's unique gifts to those who awakened.
And that the ring is beneficial for both our growth and our own. I asked what power I awakened, and she said I awakened a Tier ten ability, EYE OF GOD. She said I always had that power, but because the average human body cannot withstand more than ordinary human senses, it sealed itself and probably waited until you died to go to his new bearer.
And because I trained and drank the liquid of our Lord, the eye sensed that my body could withstand a tiny bit of its power, so he loosened the seal a little bit, which is why I could suddenly see everything in a different light.
My last question was about what ability my sister had awakened because she got a ring, too. Kali said that Ela awakened the vessel of God, which is why she was so sick, and no doctor could find a cure. It was because it wasn't a medical problem but a magical one. And the doctors in this world are not yet equipped with the knowledge to help those in need with this type of problem.
"Ela still needs to awaken her divine body fully, but the liquid and praying every day help, so just give her the ring because that will make the progress more efficient."
Jasmine nodded at Kali and left when Kali motioned with her hand that she may go. When she returned to the room she shared with Ela, she yelled for her sister to come to the living room. The shared room was like a big apartment with two separate bedrooms, a bathroom, a living room, and a kitchen.
Ela came out of her room and asked what she wanted. Jasmine just gave her a ring and said that it was a gift from the Lord. Ela put the ring on so fast that Jasmine was in shock, but she quickly followed and put the ring on her finger.
When she put the ring on, a blue, transparent panel appeared before their eyes. When she looked at it, there stood, [Welcome, Jasmine, to the merit system of the God of sex. Would you like to register for this system? Yes/NO]
Jasmine didn't hesitate and pressed Yes, and the panel momentarily stood on a loading screen. When it came back, it had four tabs, and they were:
[Status]
[Quests]
[Inventory]
[Merit]
When she pressed on Status, the following words came:
Name: Jasmine
Rank: Beginner servant of the God of sex
skills: none
unique skills: God's eye
So this is my Status in the organization. I would like to know if I can rank up. She went back to the home menu and this time clicked quest. When she did, a whole list of what looked like papers appeared. She looked closer and saw that they were all tasks that could be rewarded. She became excited. All they had done was train the last couple of weeks, but now, with this ring, they could finally go outside and do something really useful for their master.
She looked at every quest and reward, scrolling and reviewing them all, and finally picked the best one for two people. The merit points were perfect.
So she shared the quest with her sister, and Ela accepted it, too. They became excited and packed up the essentials and put them in their Inventory. They immediately left their room and went to the exit of the place. The exit is the same door that is used as an entrance, but now that they are really looking at it, they can see that a group of ten women are guarding it, and they all appear to be intimidating.
When they were walking to the exit, one of those women approached them and asked what they were doing here. Jasmine let them see the quest, and she accepted the quest with her sister. The guard looked at her system to check their database and saw they had received the quest. She smiled at them.
"Thank you for showing we do this because if something happened to you girls and it wasn't in the database, we wouldn't have an easy time helping you guys out. My name is Charlotte, and here are some tokens you may need during your travels. A button also serves as an emergency; when you press it, the token will explode, and reinforcements are on their way."
"Thank you, Charlotte, for the help."
"Yes, of course, and be safe. There is normally liquid in your Inventory automatically when you go on a quest because we can't provide it. So you can still pray and drink it when it is appropriate. You can pray where you want, but please do it privately, okay?"
And so Ela and I left the shrine for the first time.
