Before Gaige collapsed, the system had been warning him about his reckless use of divine powers and the resulting exhaustion. However, he had ignored these warnings because he hadn't felt any exhaustion at all. He was so engrossed in their sparring session that he didn't want to stop, even when warned. As a result, he collapsed in the midst of the fight. [Note: You have two power sources. Your HP and vitality might deplete in an instant if you don't manage your divine powers well.] [Note: The refilling schedule stays the same.] [The next refill will be on the 1st day of the month.] [Suggestions to replenish your zero statistics: 1 Replenish your divine powers (offer a prayer for 100 hours). 2 Eat food (will only increase a little portion). 3 Pathetically wait for a refill] Gaige was dumbfounded at what he read from his status window. It's great that his divine powers are so overpowered that he can defeat Andy too easily and even create a second disaster by simply th
Having a religion or faith in a god is essentially unnecessary for those who live solitary lives, and none of them realize that their devotion is a futile effort. Since their souls will cease to exist after death, most gods show little interest in them. Additionally, single-lifers have the shortest lifespans among all living creatures, making it unappealing for gods to watch over them. The primary purpose of the gods on Earth is to protect single-lifers from the demonic race and preserve Earth's exclusivity for these individuals. However, most of their time and attention is focused on the savage world, where everything occurs to the extreme. In light of this, even the prayers of the priest in their own temple go unnoticed by the gods. The priest continues to pray beside Gaige, but apart from blessing those seeking baptism and marriage, he possesses no powers or authority. Nonetheless, he is the most devout of all Earthlings who serve in the name of Lumeire, firmly believing that his
A month has passed. The day they are waiting for has come, and they all gathered in front of their yard to welcome the friends they long to see. [Note: They are no longer purgeable beings. They have become Single-lifers. Each of them received 50 years of life expectancy.] [Important: They will all receive the Sky God's mark. It was only a mark and had no power or connection. But they are not allowed to harm any Earthlings, or else they will automatically die!] [Rowan Ancol revival progress 100%] [Minka Libatti revival progress 100%] [Howl Stan revival progress 100%] [Strazhngtl Luchzhrr revival progress 100%] [Reshmin Enka revival progress 100%] [Purged soul retrieval is complete! 5/5] A holy glow formed in front of them, blinding their vision, and as soon as the light disappeared, they finally saw the five standing in front of them. "Howl!" It was Axel, Dambie, and Cain who were the first to jump towards the newly revived family members. They went straight to Howl, and the
When it comes to beauty, Minka bears striking similarities to Gaige's first love. Minka possesses a well-proportioned figure, standing tall and slender. Her long black hair cascades down past her waist, with locks framing her face and reaching her chin, accentuating her high forehead. Her dark brown eyes are adorned with long, voluminous eyelashes, set against a backdrop of pale skin. A narrow waist complements her very ample bosom, which Gaige finds himself captivated by. In contrast to his current wife, the only attribute Gaige truly appreciates in Ainspensser is her prowess in the bedroom. He's never shared an intimate moment with Minka, and with the princess, every romantic encounter demands utmost caution due to their secret affair. Ainspenser undeniably possesses beauty, but it falls short in comparison to Minka and Bettine. "Turn your gaze away from her, or I'll pluck your eyes out," Ainspenser whispered, her jealousy of how Gaige looked at Minka growing palpable. Although Ga
Gaige felt relieved that he had gone out with Ainspenser first, as it spared him from dealing with the dramatic tendencies of his family. When he returned to the meeting room, it was still awash with tears, making it an uncomfortable place to linger. Gaige had hoped that things would have settled by then, but emotions were still running high. Rubbing the back of his head, Gaige clapped his hands to gain the attention of his members. "So, here's what happened," he began. Then he turned to Rowan and said, "Axel has been acting as their leader, so you need to inform him of your plans first. The purgers are operating independently, so you don't have to concern yourself with them." Gaige thought that having two leaders in their family might disrupt the established order. Although Rowan had a keen understanding of everything, Gaige believed that Axel's greater experience made him better suited for the role. He didn't want Axel to relinquish his position to Rowan, as it would not only affe
Rowan, Minka, Howl, and Straz found themselves momentarily speechless in the meeting room, confronted by the reactions of the others to their concerns. A brief silence hung in the air before Minka broke it. "Is everyone brainwashed?" Minka questioned. Rowan nodded in agreement, sharing her suspicions. The video they had watched and the stories they had heard had done little to convince them that nothing was amiss. They couldn't easily trust the words of those they believed were being manipulated. "Perhaps they used those children to manipulate them?" Straz suggested. "You're likely right, and not just Gaige but the others too," Howl concurred. "Then what should we do?" Minka inquired. The three turned their attention to Rowan, awaiting his thoughts. However, before they could delve further into the matter, the sliding door of the meeting room slowly opened, and three children peered inside. "Hello, uncle. Where did Papa go?" Anric asked, but before the adults could answer, Lambe
Rowan, Howl, Straz, and Minka found themselves suffocating under the weight of Gaige's gaze alone. His oppressive aura and intimidating presence made their knees weak. Rowan swallowed hard, mustering the courage to voice his concerns. He said, "I know we may seem like people who persistently want to harm your family, Gaige, but they are a threat." Gaige could genuinely grasp their fears and the suspicions the four had voiced repeatedly. However, what irritated him most was their persistence, seemingly acting without regard for the potential harm not only to his feelings but also to those of others, especially Axel. "They are not dangerous. Rowan." Gaige said. "Minka wouldn't be in that state if she didn't attack first." "But are you going to just keep living with purgers, not knowing they will suddenly change and purge you all instead?" "They are different. There is no way—" "What is your basis?" "Rowan, don't cut my words either." "But we are telling you this because none of y
The church where Gaige and Ainspenser had exchanged vows was a simple and small countryside chapel. Its walls were not even constructed from concrete, and the entire church appeared unassuming, except for the meticulously crafted altar, where the church had invested its limited resources. However, the unpretentious chapel suddenly vanished, and what Gaige now gazed upon was no longer a modest church. It had transformed into a colossal structure reminiscent of the cathedrals typically found in cities. The roof, once concealed by the forest's trees, now towered above even the massive woodland giants. "Motherf***ers!" Gaige cursed, realizing that the larger the church, the greater the responsibility he would bear. He pressed the accelerator, all the while silently praying that it was merely a newly constructed church with no followers yet. To his dismay, the church was teeming with people, packed with devotees both inside and outside its doors. "Everyone, get out!" he yelled as he bec
