After the lecture, Allen went back to the dorm and laid on his bed. Then, not long after, the others also went back but unlike Allen, they went on a mission.

They were all out of credits. Only Allen was quite \'rich.\'

He laid on his back till noon, waiting for the eye of the spirit to look for more lost souls.

He knows that there will be lots of lost souls and he will not let this opportunity pass. With that in mind, he went to the rooftop and made more eyes of the spirit.

He was hoping to find a rather talented lost soul or a powerful follower. The generation of divine energy did not just depend on faithfulness. It also depends on the strength of the soul. One of the uses of the divine mark is to enhance the soul and alter the body of its host while it gathers divine energy for the divine spirit.

This time, Allen did not only target those in the wilderness, he was also eying those who had no guts to do missions. He knows that he can easily influence them.

...

Meanwhile, the Plague Master is not staying idle. He wondered how strong Allen was. He knows that even Allen was not at his peak, he is still not that weak. He was only weak from the perspective of a divine.

He had tried Allen\'s strength when he tried to avenge Rick. Allen was out of his league, he cannot see his strength.

With that in mind, he had decided that the Plague River Faction would become Plague River Church. He thought that it was good, they would side with the death authority of the Divine Spirit of Life and Death.

He took his phone and called on the members of his faction.

After a while, they arrived.

"Hey, boss. What\'s up?"

"Yu\' boss, howdy?"

"We\'ve been together for a while now," the Plague Master said with a stern expression, which made them silent. They did not want the atmosphere when the Plague Master said that.

"What do you think is my ability?" the Plague Master asked.

"Poison," one of the members answered.

The Plague Master smiled and prayed zealously, "My lord the Divine Spirit of Life and Death, I pray for the protection of this faction."

The prayer was heard by Allen and was approved by him. Then, the divine mark released a kind of divine energy and made a barrier surrounding their base.

The members of the Plague River Faction were astounded. They were confused about how the Plague Master did it. They knew that his ability was poison, not a barrier.

The Plague Master smiled and started preaching.

"The Divine Spirit of Life and Death has the authority over life and death. He is the master of life and death. He has promised that I will become his right hand, and I know that I will as long as I remain faithful. I will soar along with him, and of course, you too will soar as long as you believe and remain loyal."

"You see the barrier?"

"That was created by the Divine Spirit of Life and Death. He pampers those who follow him. He will not let them die, he will always find a way to fulfill their prayers as long as they deserve it…"

The Plague Master astounded the members of his faction by his zealousness. Some wondered if it was the Plague Master that they had followed while some were staring at him excitedly.

They were looking forward to what the Plague Master said. They knew that as assassins, their life would be in constant danger, but it would be different if it was what the Plague Master said.

On that day, Allen officially had a group of followers. He started getting a steady influx of energy. He was enjoying the divine energy that they were giving him. The alteration of his body also started to become faster.

With a grin plastered on his face, Allen began meditating. As soon as he felt the increase in the consumption of divine energy, he saw the familiar dark world.

But unlike before, the dark world is not void. He can see a strand of familiar energy. This is the energy that divine spirits use, the divine energy. He was bewildered.

Although he was here during his divine slumber, he had never tried coming here when he was still at his peak. He was also not sure if the other divine spirit had gone here.

The divine spirits were too prideful, and they were aggressive towards each other. They won\'t share any personal information with any other divine spirits. Their status as divine made them feel apart from each other.

He noticed that there is some sort of a figure in his inner world, but the figure is vague.

It is shaped like a human but it does not have curves, it\'s more like a voodoo doll rather than an inner body.

But after thinking for a while, Allen speculated that the human-like shape of his inner body must be the result of his possession to his predecessor.

From his inner world, he can see the coordinates where the prayers came from.

Then, in all of a sudden, Allen received a huge influx of divine energy, and the source is the divine mark that he gave to the plague master.

Allen was delighted that he no longer needed the host of the divine mark to be in his range for him to collect that divine energy, all he had to do was to enter his inner world.

Again, he was surprised that humans discovered the inner world despite struggling without the use of any sort of profound energies.

After staying there for a while, Allen went back to the real world. He was content by what he had discovered.

Allen went out of his room and went to the cafeteria for a late lunch. He was quite pleased so he feasted for himself. He used about 10 Military Credits.

The others looked at him as if they were eying a fat sheep. Allen noticed them, but he did not care. He wouldn\'t mind fighting them.. He now has plenty of divine energy.
