"Can the sacrifice of twenty thousand fanatical believers really affect the entire Sea Race?" Lina asked with some confusion. "After all, the input does not seem to match the output. They must be sacrificing something else."
"Indeed, they are." Catherine nodded."Demos has sacrificed himself."
"What?" Lina widened her eyes, finding it hard to believe. "How is it possible for a deity to sacrifice himself? Even if he wanted to, there's no one to receive the sacrifice."
"You're misunderstanding. He didn't sacrifice himself," Catherine explained. "He used the sacrifices of his fanatical believers to temporarily boost his divine power to the peak. Then he used more than ninety-five percent of his divine power to create the Nightmare Spirit in my hand."
