"Let me introduce myself, I am your lord, the Divine Spirit of Life and Death."
"Following me is not a bad idea. I will grant you the things that you desire, and you will shine in my light."
"The world will be blinded in our brilliance and your name will be known to all beings."
Allen did not need this kind of speech, but he thought that it would be fun to see their faces filled with admiration.
"You can go now, don't forget to call me if you need anything. As long as you deserve it I will grant it to you," Allen said with an amiable smile.
The beast that Allen controlled, made way for them and let them go.
"Yes, my lord, the Divine Spirit of Life and Death," the three simultaneously said as if they had a tacit understanding.
Allen smiled then he continued his journey. The phantom bats' cave is located in the northern part of camp 03-335.
While on the way, the beasts that Allen controlled did not stay idle and looked for more lost souls. Allen was planning to use them to enlighten more lost souls. This way he will have more followers.
Meanwhile, Allen continued to stride towards the northern part of camp 03-355. He followed the navigation of his watch. He arrived at the location of the phantom bats at sunset.
Allen did not start hunting, instead, he climbed a tall tree and admired the sunset. In ancient times, he was not able to do this because it was he who was giving out light.
But this time, it was the other way around. He was no longer akin to a sun. He was akin to a candle, instead. Allen was nostalgic about his past.
He stayed atop the tree for a while. Then, he entered his inner world to collect the divine energy from the divine marks.
Allen already has four divine marks. Each of them is collecting divine energy from the world's aura of life, while the divine mark on the Plague Master, was also collecting the divine energy from the praises of the Plague River Church.
Allen knew that his path as a divine spirit had officially begun and he would be back at his peak in no time.
Allen jumped down the tree and walked towards the cave to begin his hunt.
When he entered the cave, the bats looked at him with a fierce look as they had decided that he would be their dinner. But, let's see who eats who.
Allen snapped his fingers and made a barrier, which enclosed the cave.
He will not let any one of them off. He is planning to get them all and exchange them for Military Credits.
He could exchange one corpse of a phantom bat for 3 Military Credits, and there were about a thousand phantom bats in the cave. If Allen got them all, they could be exchanged for more or less 3000 Military Credits.
Allen, then, started acting. He used his fist to kill the phantom bats one by one.
Although it was tiring, it was good to get used to this body and to speed up the alteration of his body.
After a few hours, Allen got all the phantom bats and only left a few. For him to control and serve as his eyes in the dark night.
He had approximately 951 phantom bats. Now, the problem is how will he get it to the camp. He did not have a storage tool.
And, if he made a storage tool from his divine energy it would be questioned by the camp. But on second thought, he is not afraid of a 'mere' camp.
He made a hollow cube as big as 5 by 5 by 5 meters using complicated symbols made from divine energy.
Then, he shrank it into the size of a finger. He also added chains into it and hung it on his neck.
This is the first storage tool that he had created. Though the process is simple, it cost him almost all of the divine energy that he had stored.
So, after creating the storage tool, he went into his inner world to collect more divine energy.
...
Meanwhile, Jeremy was released from detention in the afternoon.
He was a little regretful when he thought that he missed the meditation class. He thought to himself that he should have just prayed for speed. But on second thought, the Divine Spirit of Life and Death is not a genie. He would surely not grant something like that.
With that in thought, he prayed, "my lord, the Divine Spirit of Life and Death, I pray there will be beasts that I could hunt."
The mission hall also has a mission where they are allowed to hunt any type of beast but the price will only be 1 military credit for any type of beast.
Many do this mission, especially those who only wanted to roam the wilderness and did not plan to hunt for a particular beast.
Jeremy was one of them. He did not have a particular beast to hunt. He went to the wilderness, on the way he also did not forget to pray for protection, which Allen granted without hesitation. This is not a problem for him.
Just when Jeremy came out of the camp, he saw an injured rabbit-type beast. He did not hesitate and shot it with his lightning, then more beasts came.
After two hours he went back to the mission hall and submitted the beasts that he had 'casually' hunted.
He was full of thanks for the effortless hunting. Most of the beasts that he had hunted were either injured or they were running from someone as if they were lured in his direction.
But when he looked around, he did not find anyone. With this, he now truly believed that his prayer was indeed answered.
Every thought that he has is now associated with the Divine Spirit of Life and Death.
Unbeknownst to him, it was the work of the beasts that Allen had controlled. Allen commanded them to grant his prayer.
