Lord of Flames - Chapter 21

Chapter 21. The Fox Girl Blushes.

(Author Note: – Just saying, the protagonist won’t have a clone, don’t worry!)

The flames burned in the newly built temple of the Fox Tribe.

Below, Qing Ling and Meng Ying stood with their hands clasped side by side.

Both of their faces were filled with respect.

That ball of flames represented a God after all.

After getting acquainted with Meng Ying, the Qing Ling now knew that on the Continent of the Gods, a God’s real body wouldn’t personally show up by itself that easily.

They would often come down with their consciousness and give revelation to their believers.

Or perhaps, smite someone using their powers and enact Heavenly Punishment.

In the eyes of the Fox girl, the flame on the altar was her God’s consciousness that had descended.

She didn’t know that it was Lin Yan himself.

Lin Yan had been burning in the Misty Mountains for around a month now.

It should be a little more than a month and a half, perhaps?

Of course, the forest he burned was close to the Orcish Kingdom.

At this stage, Lin Yan was still not ready to set foot in the Human Kingdom, nor was he ready to let humans come over.

His panel had quite a few changes to it now.

【Host: Lin Yan

Flame Core Level: Level 6 Heavenly Flame

Number of Flame Layers: 18 Layers

Maximum Temperature: 4,300 Degrees

Evolution Points: 881

Energy Points: 2,380,000,000

Current Income: 0 Points/second

Current Consumption: 100 Points/sec

Skills: Berserk Burning, Eye of Detection

Resistance: Water resistance 35%, Ice resistance 5%

Item: Virtual Godhead

Others: None】

After reading his panel, Lin Yan looked at his Virtual Godhead’s panel.

【Divine Name: The Lord of Flames

Temple: 1

Holy Maidens: 1

Power of Faith: 380 000

Divine Power: 0

Skills: Blessing, Heavenly Punishment, Divine Magic Gift]

After burning a small portion of the Misty Mountains, Lin Yan’s Energy Points reached as much as 2.3 billion.

However, his Evolution Points were quite precious. The Evolution Points that Lin Yan obtained this month would enable him to raise his flame core from a first-level Heavenly Flame to a Sixth-level Heavenly Flame!

There was still a long way to go before the next stage.

He had also reached eighteen layers.

Although his current energy consumption seemed to be huge, this is simply because he had no intention of condensing energy otherwise, the amount he would be using would’ve been lowered a lot.

The biggest change he noticed was from the Virtual Godhead.

With the increasing number of Foxes this month, they provided Lin Yan with a lot of Power of Faith, which accumulated to 380,000!

Because of that, Lin Yan’s Virtual Godhead received a new skill.

Divine Magic Gift!

With an idea in mind, Lin Yan called in Qing Ling and Meng Ying, both of who were preparing for the battle.

….

In the temple, the Qing Ling and Meng Ying’s faces were both glowing red.

If one looked closely, they would find that Qing Ling’s face was redder than Meng Ying’s.

For some reason, whenever Qing Ling sleeps at night, she would dream of the Great Lord of Flames. Although she would often receive revelation from the great Lord of Flames, she still hadn’t personally seen him on the altar.

Well… she could say that she saw him once.

Or rather, she didn’t really ‘see’ him because she never looked up, or even dared to look around.

Therefore, upon seeing the Lord of Flames this time, even if she was only seeing his consciousness, she couldn’t help but blush.

Why did she blush?

She didn’t know the exact reason.

Subconsciously, she felt that perhaps it was because she had fallen in love with the great Lord of Flames.

Since the other party was a great God, and she was his Holy Maiden, then, of course, she was allowed to fall in love with him!

However, these thoughts could not be publicly expressed!

The Fox girl, with immense patience and will, tried not looking at the Lord of Flames’ face. At this time, she and Meng Ying simultaneously received a new revelation from him. Then, they prayed at the same time.

Soon after, strange energy enveloped them. In an instant, they realized that they naturally learned powerful magic. This magic didn’t need to be studied for them to use it. They could just cast it right away!

“It’s a Divine Spell! This is a Divine spell!” Both women showed a look of delight on their faces.

A Divine Spell was something that could directly borrow the power of the Gods. Of course, how much power they could borrow depended on whether the God was generous or not, this also included the caster’s level of spiritual power and sense of magic.

Although the Fox girl was filled with joy, she didn’t understand the weight of Divine Spells.

Meng Ying, on the other hand, knew.

In the Human Kingdom, only the Pope, and a few Holy Women generally knew divine arts in the church of the lower gods. Those individuals were often Sixth Rank Magic Masters or above.

Since the power of the gods is precious, no God would willingly waste even a single drop of his abilities. Being able to use it meant that they were truly blessed by their God.

Meng Ying would have never thought that a Third Rank Magician like her would be lucky enough to receive a Divine Spell. Although the difference between the Third and Sixth Rank didn’t seem that far, a lot of sorcerers in their lifetime couldn’t close this distance. She felt that the great Lord of Flames was taking good care of her.

At this moment, she had an idea that the Lord of Flames was probably a little God who had just recently ascended, or was perhaps a pseudo-God above the Saint realm and was at the stage of condensing Godhood. Although she had these thoughts in her mind, she was still willing to give her absolute loyalty to the great Lord of Flames.

On the altar, Lin Yan sensed through the Virtual Godhead that Meng Ying’s faith in him deepened further.
