Nox woke up back on the bottom of the hill but he could feel the new power in him. He stood up and was wondering how to start his new journey when he herd a yell.
He ran over and saw a man on the ground with his leg caught between the mall of a wolf. The man saw Nox and asked for help. Nox sprung into action cutting off the wolf's head and helping the man sit up.
The man looked at Nox gratefully and said "thanks for the help stranger you really saved my neck there or I guess my leg huh. The man said before chucking to himself. The man continued " sadly I don't think I'll be able to do much with it anymore it's pretty much ruined." "The names Vince by the way."
"The names Nox and let me see that wound I get the feeling, I might be able to do something about it." Vince laughs "Ha good joke budy but you'd have a better chance getting a pig to fly."
Nox shrugs him off and checks the wound. He summons the dormant new power inside of himself, using it to heal the horribly mangled leg.
Vince looks dumbfounded but doesn't forget to make a comment " So is the pig next."
Nox chuckles and says "No that would be getting you back on your feet." Nox assists Vince in standing.
Vince gets serious and asks " But really how did you do that."
Nox looked in his eyes and says " Would you believe me if I said I was a god."
Vince brushes it off and says "Only if you bless me."
It was obvious Vince said it as a joke, but Knox took it as an opportunity to gain a believer. He summoned his power to strengthen Vince. Upgrading his skin, muscles, bones, and even his brain.
Vince can feel the obvious change in his body and out of instinct punches. The floor with all is my cracking it sending rocks into the air, and he can even see critters scurrying out of their holes from the commotion.
Vince looks at his fist in bewilderment. He looks at Nox and says "Is the pig next." Even with his calm, outward demeanor on the inside he was in awe and completely believing in the fact Nox was a god.
Nox, however, was preoccupied with the new feeling in his chest. He thought his power growing twofold. It felt amazing he believe this was the power gain from his believer, and he wanted more. He wanted enough power to crush this stupid kingdom who had taken the most important thing in his life from him.
He looked at Vince and asked him where his village was. Vince said he would lead the way before they set off. Vince didn't forget to joke about any random topic to his new god on the way.
Nox was glad he had someone to talk casually to even with his new godhood.
They walked for some time before coming to a Smoking town with screams coming from the inside.
