A council member expressed his thoughts. "I think this is a good idea. You should do what the gods want. Do it to gain their mercy."

Other councilors joined in and spoke in agreement. They know that he is about to die, and they can wait. But they would rather not wait. They would like it if he gives up his position earlier so that they can fight for it.

The chief just sighed. It is the sigh of a defeated man.

He thought to himself, "I am about to die, but they still can't let me die in peace."

He knows what they are after. And he can refuse. But he agreed. It is because he wants to see them fight over his position before he dies.

The position of chieftain can only be acquired with strength. Those who want to become the chief must fight with their lives on the line. It is a death match with only one victor. The survivor is then bathed in the blood of his enemies.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

In the case where only one person wants to be chief, then that person must hunt a great beast and bathe in its blood. Either way, for one to become chief, they must bathe in blood.

Hogglings wants to see blood flow before he dies. He is sure he will enjoy it. So even though he has no hope that he will be saved by the "gods," he agreed to step down.

"From today henceforth, I will no longer be the Chief of The Bull's Horn Tribe. I wish the next chief good luck."

He will lose his house, his wives, and his properties now that he is no longer the chief, but it doesn't matter anymore. He is going to die anyway. Besides, this ending is better than the ending of ancient chiefs who had to give up their power after they had been beheaded.

Some of the council members became excited after he made the declaration. They are the same council members who encouraged Hogglings to abdicate. They began planning when to select the next chief.

One of them proposed, "We should go back today and prepare. We will have the fight tomorrow morning at this time."

It was the first suggestion, but it was met with resounding agreement. No one was against it. If they had their way, they would even hold the fight today, but they wanted to show some respect to Hogglings by giving him time to vacate the premises and prepare for his death.

Legion was watching all these happen with slight amusement. The orcs they knew were the descendants of the demon god of WRATH. Those orcs were largely unruly and barbaric. They would have killed the chief at the first sign of weakness. These orcs appear to be tame, which is not a bad thing for them. It means they will be able to control them and get their way easier.

Warshaw interrupted the council members. "There will be no fighting for the position of chief. The gods have returned, so we will follow the ancient ways. We will use the divine ordainment method. The 9 Crowns will select who is to be chief."

The council members almost snapped then. One of them did snap.

"Enough. We've had enough from you. You can go now."

The one that snapped and shouted was one of the biggest orcs here. He even stood up, so it made his advantage in height clear.

He towered above Warshaw, but she wasn't intimidated. She was the opposite. She was incensed.

She pointed an accusatory finger at him and shrieked, "Do you dare to blaspheme the gods?" The angry orc didn't back down. He asked in return, "So what if I dare? What will they do?" Gasps filled the air at that question. Everyone was shocked that he dared say that. But the angry orc didn't back down. His heart was beating fiercely because he knows he is taking a risk, but he believes that it is a gamble that he is likely to win because Hogglings wasn't healed.

Things would have been different if Warshaw had healed Hogglings. That would have proved that the 9 Crowns existed beyond all doubt. But she didn't heal him and instead used an excuse to change the subject. The council members played along for selfish motives. Now that his selfish motives are about to be interfered with by the deranged old shaman, he is not going to stand and watch.

He became bolder when nothing happened to him after his blasphemy. He threatened her, "You should leave with Hoggling before I make someone take you away."

Warshaw was incensed but Legion wasn't. They were only frustrated. That's because Minor Miracle didn't bring out favorable options for them to use.

-You have used Minor Miracle.

-Acquiring available miracles.

-Please choose one.

1. Kill the mortal immediately. Cost: 45 DE.

2. Curse the mortal to rot while alive. Cost: 45 DE.

They shouldn't be angry that someone has appointed himself to be the scapegoat. This is another opportunity for them to display their might and cause awe in the minds of the mortal. They even have two ways to go about it.

The first option will strike the blasphemous orc down in front of everyone, while the second one will give him a long and miserable life. His life will be so miserable that he will probably kill himself to get it over with. Unfortunately, both options are expensive.

It is the same problem that they encountered with Hoggling. If Hoggling's life is not worth putting theirs in danger, then this orcs's death isn't either. Besides, they can't spend that much DE energy even if they want to.

Fortunately, they already have a viable plan for Hogglings. They will just use that plan for this one too.

They made their Will known to Warshaw. She heard 9 voices speaking directly to her mind. They said, "It is destined for him to die at the hands of our chosen. We will not use our power to bully him. We will show the world why the divine ordainment method is destiny."

The words of her god rang clear in her mind, and she acted on them immediately. She pointed at him and said, "You fool. Do you think the divine ordainment will rob the strong of their chance at power? You thought wrong. The divine ordainment method only cuts short the bloodshed by going straight to the end and choosing who will win. The divine ordainment method is a boon to use from the gods. It is not unfair and unjust."

She didn't think the gods could be wrong, and she didn't question them at all. Her faith was full, as was her confidence as she spoke.

Her voice rose with that confidence. "But don't you worry. You will see for yourself soon how wrong you have been. Everyone will see the glory of the 9 Crowns soon."

Then she walked up to a certain orc in the crowd. This orc is just a hunter in the tribe. She is strong and has the intention to challenge one of the 12 council members for their position, but she has never done so. She is not among the council members, so she is not considered one of the strongest of the Tuskin Tribe. But Warshaw went up to her, grabbed her hand, and raised it up so everyone could see.

She proclaimed with the same loud voice, "The gods have spoken. She will be the next chief of the tribe."

Everyone was stunned, including the hunter who was selected. But Warshaw only nodded calmly.

"We will return for the battle on the morning of the day after tomorrow, as is customary. Take tomorrow to prepare for your defeat and demise."

Then Warshaw began her march back to her encampment. She dragged the hunter with her. She only stopped to speak with the chief, whose mouth was still open.

"I want you to come over as soon as possible. Don't keep me or the gods waiting."Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Then she resumed her match. Everyone watched her go, still stunned and shocked. They wanted to laugh, but no one dared to. They didn't want to blaspheme the gods if they are real, and they didn't want to make fun of an old orc with lose screws. But that restraint didn't last long. People began laughing and talking after she left.

Only Chief Hogglings was quiet. He was still thinking about the things he saw. Warshaw didn't spend up to 5 minutes in his presence, so the period of observation was short. But he did notice that some of her wrinkles had disappeared in that short period.

As one of the best hunters in the tribe, he is very observant. He noticed the strange changes in Warshaw. She looked better by the time she left. It was small and almost unnoticeable, but it formed a stark contrast with his memory of how she looked yesterday morning when she visited him to tell him that he would die.

She was a wrinkled and hunched old woman yesterday. She might have gone crazy and gained a false sense of strength, but her wrinkles shouldn't be healing. It made him curious, so he decided to honor their arrangement quickly.

He didn't join in the laughter or the conversation. He stood up and returned to his house to pack up. Then he made his way to the Shaman's encampment.

----To Be Chief.

Warshaw dragged Axec along to her encampment. She wasn't truly dragging Axec, as she is not strong enough for that. It was Axec humoring her. And that was only after Warshaw had whispered to her, "Don't worry. The gods have a plan for you. They have a plan for all of us. As long as we obey them, everything will be fine."

Axec didn't know what to say about such a claim. Things become complicated when the gods are brought into any conversation. To refuse the claim that the gods have a plan is the same as saying the gods don't exist or that the gods exist but are too stupid to have plans. Those are both blasphemy that is punishable by death.

So Axec wasn't going to refute. She was going to allow the crazy Shaman to drag her to the encampment. Then she would slip away and escape. Odds are that the shaman would have forgotten about her by tomorrow morning.

But her plans changed when they finally reached the encampment. Axec felt a heat sweep through her whole body. Then the heat settled deep within her. It coalesced into a single point and made a cool sensation flood her body.

The cool sensation was clearly from an energy outside her body that she didn't know existed until that moment. This energy was rushing into her body to reach the heat spot within her. It cooled her body and gave her a sense of bliss.

It was as if she were being embraced by the softest and best fur coat. It was everything good, and most importantly, it filled her with strength.

Axec stood frozen as these sensations went through her. Warshaw smirked to herself when she saw Axec's blissful eyes. She has experienced the same thing just recently, so she knew what had happened to the young warrior.

Meanwhile, Legion received a notification.

-You have used blessing on Axec. -1 DE.

It cost them 1 Divine Energy to ordain a new chief. It is a vastly cheaper option than what it would cost them to heal Hoggings or to kill the blasphemous council member. Axec will kill the blasphemous council member for them so they don't have to spend 45 energy points right

now.

They are confident of this because of Axec's new stats.

NAME: Axec Byorn

AGE: 112(225)

FAITH: The 9 Crowns.

CLASS: None.

TIER: 0

LEVEL: 48

HP: 100/100

CONSTITUTION: 10

STRENGTH: 10

VITALITY: 10

SPEED: 9

SPIRIT: 9

MANA: 1%

STATUS: Elated.

The blasphemous warrior is level 45 with 9 points in every stat. Not only does Axec beat him

with 3 points, her strength, vitality, and constitution are above his.

This is not her natural strength. Axec was at level 44 when they told Warshaw to choose her. It was their blessing that improved her so much and grated her access to Mana. That access to Mana is why they are confident that she will beat every challenger tomorrow.

She doesn't have a class yet, which means she won't be able to use mana techniques and skills. But just the natural endowment of mana will help her heal and recover her stamina faster.

The council members are older and so are more skilled. But they don't have mana. That means they won't have the replenishment of stamina and the boost to power that mana grants. If that boost increases to 10% in the two days they have, Axec will have another edge over her challengers.

Sure, it would have been better to choose one of the council members as their champion, but they didn't do that because strength is not the priority. Faith and obedience to the gods are the priorities.

They couldn't afford to kill the blasphemer immediately or curse him, but they had to make a show by selecting someone that is unlikely to become a council member and make that person become the chief. It indicates that with the support of the gods, anything is possible and will teach the mortals to always trust in gods and obey them.

It is the best that they could do, being that it costs less and is most efficient. If they had enough divine energy, they would have killed the blasphemer and selected a stronger person as chief.

That method would be swift and thunderous. Their current method might be efficient, but it is slow, and risky. But most important of all, it gives them two days to acquire more believers and gain divine energy.

When the day of the challenge comes, they believe that they will have much divine energy to make actions that will prove their existence and power beyond any doubt, reasonable or unreasonable. So they are actually looking forward to the challenge, not anxious about its outcome.

Axec finally recovered from her stupor. Warshaw was waiting for her.

The old orc asked, "Do you now know where my confidence lies?"

Axec nodded. "I do."

"What do I rely on?" Warshaw asked.

"You are confident that I will win because of mana."

Warshaw said with disdain, "You are wrong. Mana is just the blessing from the gods. What I rely on is the gods themselves. They chose you, so you will win in two days. That is divine ordainment. You owe everything to the 9 Crowns. They can give and take away."

Axec nodded in agreement. "The gods are all powerful."

"Of course. That's what gives divine ordainment its legitimacy. Even if you were not blessed, you would still win. The gods could have killed that blasphemer today, but it is his destiny to be killed in the challenge by your axe. That will show the legitimacy of divine ordainment and give glory to the 9 crowns."

Axec nodded in agreement as her confidence also soared. She was beginning to have some faith.

Warshaw said to her, "Come with me to give worship to the 9 crowns."

Axec was brought to the shrine of the 9 gods, where she bowed.

She swore solemnly, "If I win the challenge and become chief, the whole tribe and my life will belong to you. I will give my all to you."

Warshaw frowned. She didn't like how that promise was phrased. She believes that everything already belongs to the gods. They don't need someone to give it to them. It is the opposite. The mortals are to hand over everything they have so that they can please the gods. Everything in all of existence is for their pleasure.

As a zealot, she didn't keep her displeasure to herself. She made sure to lecture the future chief about how to respect the gods. This lecture was not a simple act of mentioning Axec's error with her promise. It was an in-depth analysis that took 10 minutes and would have continued for longer if Hogglings hadn't arrived.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Meditate on what I have told you. Your acceptance of the gods will improve your connection with mana. Think of mana as the power from gods. If you try to get closer to the gods, then you will get closer to Mana." Warshaw said to Axec before she left her to minister onto Hogging.

Hogging was also blessed by the 9 crowns. It improved his stats and his resistance to the poison. He reached level 50 immediately. It is the limit of what orcs are capable of, and he even gained access to Mana. All of these made him confident of surviving for 3 days.

Legion spent 1 divine energy to acquire that outcome. It is likely that Hoggings will be able to heal himself in 3 days. If not, 3 days is more than enough time for them to establish their church and gain a steady source of divine energy. So they will be able to heal him then.

It shows just how powerful the gods are. A simple blessing, when used right, can acquire them the loyalty and faith of a peak fighting force as a guardian for their Oracle and a chief of a tribe.

With Hogging protecting Warshaw, she won't die before they have made full use of everything she has to offer. And with Axec, they will have the whole tribe under their thumbs. So they are off to a good start. It all hinges on Axec winning her battle in two days.

In the meantime, some of the rewards for their hard work came in. Warshaw was poor, so she couldn't offer more than her best bull. Axec is a hunter, so she had more to spare. Hoggling, on the other hand, is very rich and also very grateful to the 9 gods. He was willing to offer everything he still owned to the gods.

The two orcs might have been skeptical of the existence of gods before, but they were not anymore after they saw everything they offered on the shrine turn into motes of light and disappear.

They offered the best they had and more, but the sight of all of their stuff being received made them happy instead of sad at losing so much. Such is the allure of faith.

Legion was happy with the situation. It had a lot to do with thr notifications they received each time they offered something.

-You have received 10 gold coins from Axec.

-You have received 93 cold coins from Hoggling. -You have received (Large shield) from Hoggling. -You have received (Wolf pelt armor) from Hoggling. -You have received (Twin daggers) from Hoggling.

Everything offered to a god could be received by the god, including weapons and armor. Plus, their action of receiving offerings increased the faith of their believers. It gave Legion a good idea on how to exploit the mortals and spread their religion very quickly.

They said to Warshaw, "We are in a good mood and have decided to bless this tribe with a boon after the selection of the new chief. But the boon we will grant your tribe will depend on how sincere they are. Let them offer us their best, and we might visit a great boon upon your tribe."

Warshaw took off immediately. She didn't know that they had lied to her, but she didn't need to know that. All she needs to have is blind faith in her god.

Legion watched her go and felt a little proud of their lie. It is because it is not truly a lie. They can just make up anything as the boon. For example, they can say that the grace of living for another day is the boon. After all, they are gods. The fact that they don't go on a killing spree is a boon to mortals.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Their request had already brought forth rewards when Axec and Hoggings heard it from Warshaw. They offered a lot of armor and weapons to the 9 Crowns.

So the clones' naked and exposed form was soon encased in the best armor that the Orcs could make, and they were soon wielding the best weapons available.

They were surprised that they could receive weapons as offerings, but they were even more surprised that the weapons could strengthen them. So they asked their angel about it.

"Non-living things can be received as an offering just like living things. And just like living things, anything received will be transformed into a useful form for the gods."

"Living things will be transformed into divine energy, while non-living things will be converted into divine artifacts. These weapons are just the lowest grade divine artifacts. No god can forge something poorer than it or as poor as it."

The clones didn't mind. Legion-1 said, "Low grade or not, it is better than nothing."

Legion-8 agreed. "Besides, it is free."

Legion-3 with a snicker, "It is better than free. It is like taking candy from babies."

They found it funny that the mortals are giving them their stuff. They believe that it would have been better for them to use those things to strengthen themselves, but they also understand that in God's Domain, mortals need the help of gods to access mana and grow stronger.

So the faith of the mortals in their useful gods is understandable. But that doesn't stop the whole thing from being funny because they don't need to steal something to get it. It is simply offered to them when they ask for it.

Next, they used insight on all the weapons to confirm. They found that the angel was right. They were all (Low Grade Divine Artifacts). They ranged from level 5 to level 10. Their level determines how much enhancement they can provide, but that's not all there is to them. The weapons have other properties.

The only bow, for example, provides more than a strength amplification.

(Hunting Bow (Low Grade Divine Artifact): Level 5)

(Enhancement: +5 Strength. Dual Notches. Bladed Limbs)

(Description: A bow for skilled hunters. It has two notches to shoot two arrows at the same time. It also has small blades attached to its two limbs for desperate close combat use)

The clones shared the weapons and armor amongst themselves. They tried to have different configurations so as to be able to meet the needs of various fighting situations and enemy types.

Legion-1: Heavy Metal Armor (+10 Endurance). Large Shield (+10 Endurance). Large Axe (+10 Strength). Hunting shoes (+7 Speed)

Legion-2: Light Leather Armor (+3 Endurance). Hunting Bow (+5 Strength). Hunting shoes (+7 Speed)

Legion-3: Light Leather Armor (+3 Endurance). Twin Daggers (+6 Strength). Hunting shoes (+7 Speed)

Legion-4: Medium Fur Armor (+6 Endurance). Single Edge Blade (+7 Strength). Single Edge Blade (+7 Strength). Hunting shoes (+7 Speed)

Legion-5: Medium Fur Armor (+6 Endurance). Spear (+7 Strength). Hunting shoes (+7 Speed)

Legion-6: Medium Fur Armor (+6 Endurance). Small Axe (+7 Strength). Small Axe (+7 Strength). Hunting shoes (+7 Speed)

Legion-7: Heavy Metal Armor (+10 Endurance). Heavy Bola (+7 Strength). Hunting shoes (+7 Speed)

Legion-8: Light Leather Armor (+3 Endurance). Throwing Knives (+5 Strength). Harpoon (+6 Strength). Hunting shoes (+7 Speed)

Legion-9: Light Leather Armor (+3 Endurance). Bladed Whip (+6 Strength). Hunting shoes (+7 Speed)

With their configuration, they are prepared for both long-range, medium-range, and close- range combat and enemies that require blunt, slashing, or piercing damage to be out down. Having weapons put Legion in a good mood for the rest of the day. They felt more secure against the attacks of other gods as they followed their Oracle around the tribe. Warshaw went to every house proclaiming the existence of gods and informing them of the fight that would take place in the morning. If they didn't know about the fight for chieftaincy that was to hold the day after tomorrow, they knew it after she shouted it at their gates for hours. She also invited them to a worship at her place in the evening with her loud voice.

Her second request was a little out of place, but it wasn't strange. The tribe usually congregates at her encampment during festivals and during the new year, so it is not strange that she is asking them to worship at her place. But none of those events is taking place today, so it is odd that she is asking them.

Even so, some of them decided to come around. The gods might not be real, but they were once real, and it is said that they will return one day. It is the Shaman's that say the gods will return, and they have said it for so long that it is still part of the orcs tradition to worship gods, so the people of the tribes decided to worship.

They also brought something that will be sacrificed to the gods. It was small and inconsequential to them, but they all brought something, and that's good enough for Legion.

Their little offerings served as the hook of belief that snared their souls for the 9 Crowns. They witnessed their gifts being received and turned into believers immediately.

It didn't matter if Warshaw was faking it with magic. If she could, it meant that magic exists again and that the gods must have returned. After all, the gods are the source of all power. In their absence, all forms of extraordinary power disappeared with them. So fake or not, the sight of their offerings being received rekindled the faith in the gods.

The clones watched all of this happening with slight anticipation. They couldn't help it because of all the notifications they were receiving of offerings, divine energy, and new believers.

As the day dragged on, their confidence increased in tandem with the increase in their divine energy. They felt more confident about the challenge and even decided to use the faith of the people as their third plan that will be needed in case Axec somehow loses the challenge even with their help.

It is not smart to put all of one's eggs in one basket, and only those that are prepared for failure will never truly fail. That is something they have heard from others, seen in the Supreme Law of a particular world god, and experienced themselves, so they are always planning for every possibility.

Anything can happen on the morning of the challenge. If Axec fails, that means they can't rely on the chief. Things would be worse for them because they would lose the respect of the people, and Warshaw would be verified as crazy.

They can't let that happen, but if it happens despite their best efforts, then they must have the people on their side. If the people already believe in them by the time of the challenge, not only will they have more divine energy to assist Axec, they will have more sway in the tribe to affect any orc that becomes the new chief.

The evening ceremony and the whole of tomorrow will give them the opportunity to convert a lot of the tribe members into believers.

These believers will be shallow believers because the only miracle that will be shown is the acceptance of their sacrifice. But their faith will cemented on the morning of the challenge when Axec wins or with further miracles when they interfere to make Axec win.

Their fourth plan is to overcome their hesitation and spend the divine energy needed to heal Hoggings. That way they will also have physical might on their side.

So while a lot hinges on Axec winning the challenge and becoming the new chief, they are already making sure that she will win, and if she does not, they won't need her anymore. It is the preparation for failure that ensures success regardless of the outcome.

The evening ceremony went well. Many orcs rushed back to acquire better offerings and sacrifices. They wept and cried as their offerings were all accepted. Even living animals turned into motes of light on the altar.

Legion gained a lot of believers that night and the following day. They gained a lot of Divine Energy and their Authority increased rapidly until it reached 101. That is just about 20% of the population of the tribe, so they are optimistic about their future.

They received another notification for their efforts.

-You have acquired more than 100 Authority.

-You have unlocked Divine spells.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

-Ascend to the Divine Realm to gain access to Divine spells.

This notification formed their resolve to ascend as soon as possible. They were confident of ascension thanks to the success of their two days of evangelism. It is the sort of confidence that 53 Divine Energy each can grant a god.

Morning came very soon. It came with excitement and anticipation that filled the entire tribe. It is because word had spread to everyone in the tribe that today would be the day for the selection of a new chief. This is the kind of thing that only happens every 50 years.

It is not a once in a lifetime event since orcs can leave to be 200 years old, but it comes close. The anticipation was further increased by the talks of the advent of the gods.

The divine ordainment and the religious events that took place in the Shaman's enclosure have also spread. A lot of the tribe members wanted to know if the gods had truly appeared and if they would show their might today.

So it was with eagerness that everyone in the tribe assembled at the square at the center of the tribe. Even the old and the young were present. The only person absent was the previous chief. Many guessed that he had either died or he was too weak to move.

Soon the challengers for the seat of chief appeared. All of them were old council members, while only one was a young warrior. This young warrior was the one to take the stage first.

Axec appeared to be full of confidence and high in spirit. Her eyes were bright, and her steps were steady. They were not the steps of one who suspects that she is in a situation way out of her league.
