It is sacrilegious to kill a person in front of a statue of a goddess.

To blaspheme and deny the Goddess in front of her statue is an act of utmost blasphemy.

When you commit murder or blasphemy in front of a statue of a goddess, does something strange happen?

That’s not it.

The Goddess does not specifically curse or punish those who blaspheme, deny her doctrines, or insult her.

But if it just ended like that, then Mariel, the Inquisitor, wouldn’t be confused by the Sage Mandarin’s behavior in front of the statue of the Goddess.

“Look, Mariel.”

The mandarin in full glory is in a praying pose with his hands clasped together.

“The power that the wise mandarin uses after becoming the servant of the demon, Vampire.”

The white aura emanating from the mandarin is a smoky, sacred aura, similar to that used by other vampires.

“Even in front of the goddess, he uses the divine power of the demon without any hesitation.”

Even the color is a composition with subtle red threads mixed in.

I thought there might be an orange tint to the hair color, but the divine power did not change like Mandarin’s hair color.

“If it was the power of another god, there would have been some problem in using the power of the demon god. Someone who recognized the power of the heresy would have come running.”

That was fortunate.

I was worried that the power might change or something in front of the statue of the goddess, but fortunately, Vampire’s divine power was not much different in color from when she was in the dungeon.

“What do you think, Mariel?”

“…….”

“Vampire who was transformed after receiving the ‘Blessing of the Demon God’ had sex in front of the statue of the goddess and was safe, and no punishment was even handed down from the statue.”

“The blessing of the divine power remains intact?”

“Yeah.”

Here’s a quick note on world common sense.

“He who denies the Goddess will not receive the blessings of the Divine.”

The Goddess does not strike down lightning on those who deny her, but she takes away one of the basic blessings that humans have.

“No longer being able to receive the blessings of divine power. To be exact, not being able to restore one’s body with divine power. That is not the price of denying the goddess, but the price.”

Blessing of the Divine.

Literally, the very thing that is influenced by divine power.

Priests of the Goddess Cult can heal people by using the power of divine power.

However, if there is someone who does not respond to this treatment, then that person has rejected the Goddess’s blessing and has decided not to follow her.

A human who has lost the blessing of the divine will not have his body restored by divine power.

Of course, it can be cured by simply using drugs, using magical powers, or using natural remedies.

However, we do not enjoy miracles such as having a cut part completely fixed, as shown by the divine power.

“Mariel. The heretic inquisitors who came in with you have abandoned their faith in the Goddess.”

What if those who possess divine powers abandon the Goddess?

“They are still busy creating slimes. But they have divine power. The divine power they had before they abandoned the goddess.”

The goddess doesn’t even take away her divine power.

“What would happen if they used divine power?”

“……It is only consumed, but it is not replenished.”

“You know exactly what I mean.”

Instead, divine power no longer accumulates.

In vulgar terms, it means being out of sight, out of the control of the goddess.

“They will have to live with the remaining divine power in their bodies for the rest of their lives. Some women may have thought that if they betrayed the goddess and followed the demon, they would be able to accumulate the divine power of the demon, but that would be impossible. Why?”

“The divine power of the demon is also…the divine power of the goddess.”

“Good answer.”

I patted Mariel’s head.

“Divine power is like currency, so to speak. You priests are blessed by the goddess, and can use the given amount of currency indefinitely. ”

If we were to compare the divine power given to Mariel to money, it would be like refilling 1 million won every single day.

That $100,000 can be spent, saved, or stored somewhere else.

If you abandon the goddess, the refills will be cut off.

“Mariel. Even if you become a vampire, you will not abandon the goddess.”

Mariel swallows.

“The divine power accumulated while following the goddess remains as the divine power of the goddess. It just has the divine power of the demon and the characteristics of a vampire. The nature of the two is not different at all. It’s just that the color is a bit more red. ”

“Just a different color…?”

“Yeah.”

The divine power for humans is just a bit more white.

The divine power for the Demon Race is just a bit more black.

The divine power for vampires is simply red mixed on top of white divine power.

You could say that they are different colors, but it’s clear that they all fall into the same category of ‘color’.

If the divine power of the goddess that humans believe in is Wonhwa.

The divine power of the demon god that the demons believe in is the dollar.

And our vampire army is the new foundation of faith that can handle both the won and the dollar.

“Mariel, servant of the goddess who never abandoned her faith.”

I stretched my hand forward and waved it towards Mariel as if I was offering her a knighthood.

“As a servant of the Goddess, follow the Goddess’s teachings. Give birth to a healthy child with a healthy body, and fulfill your mission as a living being born on this earth.”

“Pregnancy, childbirth, reproduction….”

“You may say that the process is vulgar and obscene, but the end result is a holy act that gives birth to a new life.”

Mariel swallows.

“This is also an act of increasing new believers who follow the goddess’s faith.”

“!!”

A newborn child believes in a goddess?

“Now, we can say that it is ‘the survival of faith’.”

“The…survival of faith…!”

Newly born children preach and transmit the faith to the next generation.

What else could that be but spreading the doctrine of the Goddess Cult?

“Also, as an Inquisitor, you will punish those who do not follow the Goddess.”

“Inquisitor….”

“Take off the masks of those who dare to speak of the Goddess while abandoning her.”

Among the priests, there may be some who use their position in the cult of the goddess rather than their belief in the goddess.

“Search for and judge the priests who only pursue pleasure, not the creation of life, and only engage in anal sex.”

There may be some who do not use the divine power they possess to the fullest extent, but instead eat the anuses of priestesses or have contraceptive sex just for pleasure.

“Break the brains of those who do not celebrate the birth of unborn children, but only think of it as an unexpected result of not using contraception.”

Perhaps there are those who make the new goddess’ followers pregnant and then kill them without being able to resist.

“Mariel. Do you want to make a bet?”

As always, the bet in this situation is right.

“Become a vampire. If your divine power is questioned after becoming a vampire, if your faith in the goddess is denied, I will gladly give up my life.”

“……Really?”

Mariel looks up at me.

Although I suspected that I was lying, I smiled back.

“That’s right. You’ll just become a vampire. Just a red color mixed with divine power. ”

“That is the divine power of the drinker….”

“From the perspective of the demons, it is the divine power of the demon god. From the perspective of humans, it is the divine power of the goddess.”

It’s just a difference between users.

Except for the fact that the colors are a bit mixed, the divine power itself is ultimately the same in nature, whether it is a demon or a goddess.

“Mariel. Do you know why the Demons are suffering from divine power?”

“That’s….”

“Because the current demon tribe has been heretics who have not followed the demon god for 150 years.”

“……Heretic.”

Mariel swallows.

“Did you drink it, or did you not drink it?”

“Yes. They say they worship the devil on the outside, but in reality, they drive out the true believers and make false believers the priests of the sect.”

“They are….”

“It is heresy from the perspective of the devil, and it is heresy from the perspective of the goddess.”

“…….”

The current Demon King’s Army claims to be a cult of demons, but in reality, it is not a religion of demons.

If the divine power of this drink is dollars.

The divine power of the Demon King’s army is talent.

“Choose. Will you become a vampire, judge heretics, and prove your faith in the Goddess, or-”

“…I.”

Mariel raises her head.

“I am an inquisitor of the Goddess Cult.”

“That’s right.”

“As an Inquisitor, he punishes those who do not follow the goddess.”

“That’s right.”

“…Can Vampire also be called an Inquisitor?”

“Of course.”

That’s obvious.

“We believe in the Goddess, use her faith, and spread her words, but who made the law that says vampires are not priests of the Goddess?”

“…if.”

Mariel slowly got up from her seat.

“If my faith is brainwashed and shaken when I become a vampire, I will take my own life.”

“If not?”

“…I will do my best as an Inquisitor.”

Mariel glanced at my bed for a moment.

“…According to the doctrine of the Goddess, I will do my best to increase new believers with my own body.”

“I see.”

I guided Mariel to the altar.

“Give birth to a new believer directly from your belly, and let that believer recite the doctrine of the goddess before being born into this world, so that he or she can be born into this land.”

Unlimited sex until the fix.

After the revision, recitation of the scriptures for prenatal education.

And after giving birth, to give birth to the next believer.

….

A little later.

We have welcomed the birth of a new vampire.
