Verse 38 Declaration

Flint tried his best to calm his nervous mood a little.

He knew very well that without Ashrufat, he should have been lying in that rocky ground and waiting to feed the crows—even worse. But, like all young men, he couldn't help but think in his mind, how great it would be if it was really his doing.

Of course, this is just thinking about it. He had fought with Atorian, which could not be called a battle. He could believe that if Atorian had dealt with him seriously, he might not be able to take it in a round. This is not an exaggeration or his own weakness, but the difference between the Chaos Lord and the Chaos Warrior is so big.

If one day... I can also become the Chaos Lord...

Flint's mind was fantasizing for a while. Although he was originally an excuse to "rest for a while", he was really too tired on this day. Although the physical fitness of northerners is generally stronger than that of southerners, he has really experienced too many things today. This is a double fatigue of physical and mentality, and even a Chaos Warrior cannot resist it. Unconsciously, he fell asleep.

When Flint woke up, it was already dark.

What shocked him when he walked out was that the people of the tribal council (except the seriously injured Asovin) were actually waiting quietly in the clearings in the middle of the camp, on the altar of Slaanes. Everyone looked at him with awe. Then he remembered that he was already ordinary today. Now he was no longer "Chaos Warrior Flint", but "Flint who killed the Chaos Lord Atorian".

There were various sacrifices next to the Chaos Altar. The most important of them were the spoils obtained from the enemy, including Atorian's helmet. Everyone was waiting for Flint to come to start the ceremony.

This is a normal thing for chaos. When something big enough to please the gods in a tribe—usually a military victory, or a certain merit or something—then such sacrifices will be held. They dedicate their victory to the gods in order to gain the favor of God.

In the past, the Chaos Wizard Asovin was responsible for presiding on this sacrifice, but now Flint has been qualified.

Flint looked around and unexpectedly, Ashu Rufate was not present. Flint was a little strange, but at this time he could not hesitate. Flint walked to the leading position and began to preside over the ritual of sacrifice.

In fact, this ritual is very simple. Every Chaos believer will (think about it, some Chaos believers can live alone in the wild), and Flint is naturally no exception. With the ignition of the sacrificial fire, the red flames become a colorful, rainbow-like color in a very short time.

This shows one thing: Prince Huanyu is very satisfied with this sacrifice. The tribe's actions greatly glorified it. God's will came on this altar, and all believers could clearly feel this.

Then, an aroma spread inexplicably. Before the altar, the people participating in the sacrifice fell into a trance, and the will of the Prince of Joy came from the void, swept through his own believers one by one, evaluated and examined the achievements of his believers. In the feeling of relaxing physically and mentally, Flint clearly felt that the will of the Prince of Joy was integrated with his spirit. It is difficult to describe this pleasure, but all other enjoyments in the world, such as food, beauty, and beautiful scenery, cannot be compared with this feeling of fulfilling, joy, and vitality.

If someone who was calm was observing, he could clearly see Flint's face twisted with extreme pleasure, his arms spread out as if he wanted to hug something, but his fingers were spasming there.

This indescribable feeling that makes people fascinate physically and mentally, and cannot be extricated, faded away like a tide. Flint opened his eyes. The feeling just now was so beautiful that he could not restrain himself and wanted to pursue more. Is this the feeling that the wizard Asovin used to feel? No, it was impossible! Flint quickly denied this. This was a reward for him, and only he received it.

However, Flint didn't know the reason for this reward. Was he fulfilled the reward of the Blood Oath? Although Flint himself admitted that the oath was able to be fulfilled entirely because of Ash Rufate. But as mentioned earlier, the concept of the Chaos Evil God in this regard is very similar to that of humans: the credit of his subordinates is the credit of the leader, and the credit of his subordinates is the credit of the leader. Flint made a blood vow to deal with the scout (although it was later proved that it was not an ordinary scout), and then he did this (of course, this was entirely based on luck), so he naturally had to get the reward.

Another possibility is to kill the reward of Atolian, the lord of Chaos. Since Ashu Rufate did not participate in this ceremony, was this honor given to Flint?

When he was thinking this way, he suddenly remembered another thing. By the way, God’s grace, has he received God’s grace?

He had never had any experience in this regard, but after calming down, he could clearly feel some subtle changes in his body... How could he say it, it was full of power.

He quickly ran to the side and tried to move a stone - it was a large stone. With his experience, he knew that it was difficult to move with his own strength alone. But this time, he found that the situation was different. Before he could use a lot of strength, the stone was already picked up by him.

That's right, this is the grace of the gods. He almost couldn't control himself. From this moment on, he was already a God-Selected Warrior. Of course, although it has not been proven in actual combat, Flint believes that he is now a very strong one even among God-Selected Warriors.

But... it's just a God-Choose Warrior.

Although the classification of classes within chaos is relatively simple on the surface, in fact, every time you improve one class, you can immediately develop absolute control over the people below. This is because it is extremely difficult to improve the class you are in. This requires the recognition of the gods. In other words, buying, bribery, deception, threats, cheating, cheating, etc. are all jokes. Only actual results, and extraordinary results, can you cross this barrier-like interval.

Extraordinary achievement - the literal meaning of this word itself means it is difficult to achieve. Otherwise, how is it called "Extraordinary"?

The sacrificial fire has returned to its normal color of flame. This time, Prince Huanyu was greatly pleased. At least Flint had never seen such a strong divine intention come after he grew up so old. The original fragrance had disappeared in the night sky, and almost all the members of the tribe had returned to normal. More than one person was full of expectations, because it was obvious that many of them must have been promoted this time.

Next is another ceremony. While Prince Huanyu's gaze has not yet gone, the prisoners are taken to the altar one by one to make their own choices. In fact, this choice is not difficult to make. Usually, as long as there is a chance, the prisoners are willing to join the winner's side - only a few high-level members are exceptions. Moreover, due to the constraints of divine power, those "fake surrender" practices do not work.

The newly joined ceremony was generally smooth. Among the prisoners, only three people were executed, and the others were willing to join the small tribe. At this moment, there were more than one hundred members in the tribe. Unfortunately, although there were a lot of members, there were not many new warriors. In the previous night attack, many people fought stubbornly and were eventually killed.

When the spiritual test of this new member ends, the subject of the entire tribe - this subject means that all warriors, including the raiders and Chaos warriors - gather at the altar, waiting for the last ritual of declaration. That's right, Flint needs another step to declare himself as the leader of the tribe in front of everyone and in front of the altar of the gods. Although this is "temporary", since Flint has become a God-Selected Warrior at a young age, what's so strange about saying that he can go further? Don't forget that Flint actually killed the Chaos Lord Atorian in the daytime battle today.

With such achievements, let alone in the future, even if Flint was directly promoted to Chaos Champion just now, then no one would be surprised. According to a deeply rooted prejudice in Chaos: a Chaos Champion is more suitable as the leader of the tribe than a Chaos Wizard.

Everyone stared at Flint, waiting for him to announce this. Flint also looked at the crowd, because he saw Ashu Rufate's face in the crowd. I don't know when he came back, but Ashu Rufate was in the crowd, looking at Flint.

"Everyone, I decided..." Flint clenched his fists and slowly let go. "Accept the results of our previous elections." He said. "We all vowed to obey, so we should not violate them."

Everyone was stunned. Look at me, look at you, for fear that I would hear it wrong. Don't talk about others, even Claire herself couldn't believe her ears. Yes, she did want to compete for the status of this temporary leader before, and even bribed Moore for it. But before, now, now. After Flint returned triumphantly, even Claire herself had completely given up hope.

How is that possible?

After a few seconds, Flint still didn't say anything anymore, and people finally realized that this was not a joke. The whole tribe was talking, and everyone guessed one by one. But in the end, I don't know who came up with an idea that took the upper hand. That was, Asovin's injury was not as serious as it seemed. Since that was the case, Flint, who was working towards the Chaos champion in the future, would not pay much attention to the status of this "interim leader".

In other words, this is a typical example of the change of status that changes people's minds. Flint had fought for this position before because he was just a mere Chaos warrior, and he didn't even know when (or even whether he could) become a God-Selected Warrior. But now, he has obviously obtained the God-Selected Warrior and has become an unquestionable God-Selected Warrior (and may have received a promise from Prince Huanyu), and even the position of Chaos Champion is within reach. Since that is the case, the position of this temporary leader is useless to Flint, and it doesn't matter if he gives up.

After making this declaration, Flint clearly saw Asu Ruffat and smiled.
