God of Internet

Today marks the 25th day of the trial in the mortal world, which is 12.5 days in the divine world, almost halfway through the trial.

Just as Arcantor received information about the God of Fear in Eldoria, information about various other gods has begun to arrive from the informant mages of various other realms.

Not only information about gods appearing in other realms, but also about these gods starting wars as soon as they arrived.

Since the information from other realms took a long time to arrive because the spell wasn't instantaneous, we were a few days out of date with the information.

But that was already a huge advantage compared to other realms that didn't focus on magic like Arcantor.

According to the information we received, the smaller kingdoms were attacked by one or two neighboring kingdoms, possibly by greedy gods who wanted to get more points for the test while showing how good they were at attacking.

Some were lucky in these attacks, but others got screwed when they sent armies to destroy smaller kingdoms, and other gods took advantage of this to destroy the unprotected kingdoms without armies.

At this point, the mortal world descended into chaos.

With so many gods appearing all over the world, the only thing mortals could cling to at the moment was their faith in the god of their kingdom, and the hope that this god could protect them.

Seeing this as a good opportunity, I even encouraged the mages of Arcantor to post this on the [Arcantor National] application to let the people of Arcantor know what was happening in the world.

Knowing that other kingdoms were being destroyed by foreign invasions, while Arcantor was easily resisting, would make the people even more grateful to live in Arcantor, as well as develop more gratitude for me and make Arcantor more attractive.

In the past four days, I have focused solely on testing my power, both by practicing the use of Divine Power to evolve the iMonsters and by developing blessings that could counter the other gods.

To deal with the God of Fear, the only thing I needed was to create a blessing that would increase courage and decrease the influence of fear.

Among the messages I received, I discovered that another kingdom bordering Arcantor, the kingdom of Valoria, was the seat of the God of Mountains, someone much more complicated to deal with than the God of Fear.

Fortunately, according to the information we received, the Kingdom of Valoria was not focused on attacking Arcantor, but on other neighboring kingdoms.

Arcantor's reputation for being easy to defend and difficult to attack was not something that all the gods were willing to ignore, as the God of Fear foolishly did.

The last realm bordering Arcantor was Novera.

Surprisingly, while Novera was a desert kingdom with a lack of resources and a poor population, the god who came to this kingdom was an old acquaintance of the former Adrian.

Lucy Wavecrest, the Goddess of the Waves.

According to the information sent to us by the wizard in Novera, the Goddess of Waves didn't ask for prayers like the other gods, but she used her divine power to bring rivers from distant lands to Novera, thus solving one of Novera's greatest problems.

Since Novera was a poor and dry kingdom, the neighboring kingdoms didn't show much interest in attacking it, which gave Lucy enough time to develop.

When the citizens of Novera saw the waves of water bringing rivers to their kingdom, they voluntarily began to pray to the Goddess of Waves two or three times a week.

This may have caused her to explode in divine power compared to the other gods, without anyone knowing!

Analyzing Adrian's memories of Lucy, I was surprised to learn that she was one of the highest scoring students with the most potential in the school, but that despite all this success, she always remained humble and treated everyone, including Adrian, with great courtesy.

Because of this, the former Adrian even had some feelings for her that he never let on.

Considering her friendly approach to mortals and the way she acted at school from Adrian's memories, my impression of her has improved a lot.

And thinking about her divinity, doubts began to creep into my mind.

Theoretically, she was the Goddess of Waves, with her hair even acting like the waves of a moving sea.

But was her divinity limited to the waves of the sea? Or did she also have control over other kinds of waves?

Thinking about sound waves, which were still extremely expensive for the Internet to reproduce, if I had access to the Divinity of Waves, it wouldn't be impossible to lower the cost, right?

The Internet would have to evolve in the future to add sounds, videos, and all sorts of other developments, and while I could do that on my own by becoming stronger in the future, I don't know how the increased use of audio on the Internet would affect my gain in Divine Power.

If I could get a partnership with her, it wouldn't be impossible to deal with this problem permanently!

Of course, I wasn't desperate for that now, it was just a possibility for the future.

My current focus was on dealing with the annoying mosquito called the God of Fear.

Rosalind and the other merchants had already conquered several other small towns in the neighboring kingdoms, including Valoria and Novera, but the main focus was still on Eldoria.

According to the information I received from reading the nobles' messages in Eldoria's [Carrier Pigeon], the God of Fear was personally planning to attack Arcantor.

Thinking about all the possibilities, I calculated that it would be useless to let him come and attack while I was only preparing to defend myself.

When I thought about my plan to have the flying dragon attack Eldoria, it became more and more feasible.

I could try to conquer Eldoria peacefully, without killing any of the kingdom's mortals in the attack, if I simply conquered their king, but this was becoming more and more complicated with the haste the God of Fear was showing.

The highest ranking noble I had defeated so far was only a viscount, still a very low position compared to the king.

Looking around Eldoria, I sensed that Rosalind was using the Internet to get to a county, which could get an Earl to use the Internet.

But for this to spread through a city like this, to reach the earl and conquer him, could take a few days, not to mention the journey to a marquis and a duke after that.

By then, the God of Fear would have attacked Arcantor, and the whole thing would have become a pain in my ass.

So I decided to get down to business.

The teachers at the school wanted the students to demonstrate great fighting skills to show that we deserved to be part of the army and that we had enough firepower to take part in divine battles against other gods and demons in the future, so that's what I was going to do.

The previous God of Creativity could be underestimated, giving the impression that he was just a wimp who couldn't really fight.

But that's only because he didn't have enough Divine Power.

With the amount of Divine Power I am getting every day, it will only be a matter of time before I surpass the former God of Creativity.

So it's time for me to show the power of creativity.

=========================

| Character Status

=========================

| Name: Adrian Innovashine

| Titles: God of Creativity, God of the Internet

| Level: Rank 8 Embryonic Deity

| Number of believers: 418,613 -> 460,474

| Average usage per user: 4 hours

|------------------------

| Divine Power: 177,404 / 1,280,000 -> 1,969,071 / 1,280,000 (+3,583,327 -1,791,660)

=========================

In the last four days, I had received 3.5 million Divine Power Points just from the prayers of the believers online. If it hadn't cost nearly 1.8 million Divine Power Points to teach the believers to read and write, I might even have risen to a rank 9 embryonic deity by now.

But despite this high cost, I was satisfied with my development.

Getting rid of the God of Fear, even if it cost me all of the nearly 2 million Divine Power Points I now had, would still be worth it, because dealing with him would not only give me access to the entire population of a kingdom as large as Arcantor, but it would also give me several days of peace for having dealt with the annoying fly that controlled them.

With the Internet, the only thing I needed to stop being an embryonic deity and become an elemental god was time, and time was exactly what I would get from dealing with the God of Fear.

So in order to put an end to the God of Fear soon, I decided to arrange a meeting with the 3 Archmages of Arcantor, just to make sure nothing went wrong, so that they could help me devise a plan for the attack I was planning.

...

Without realizing it, my mindset was gradually changing at this point.

From the God who simply wanted to avoid trouble and peacefully invade other realms, I saw the possibility of dealing with troublesome gods by becoming more confident in my own divinity.

Something that, from the point of view of the schoolteachers watching me, was a very positive change.
