As long as the meat is tempting enough, hunger and greed will drive him to swallow it up without hesitation! Louis thought.
Heckfoss surely won’t live long. Although I don’t know how he survived until now, and he certainly has a big problem. Those who are below level four can, at most, live for two hundred years. This is because their mind power will become weaker and continue to lose its vitality, that is unless he finds some special areas that are suitable for the growth of mind power!
As Heckfoss is a level four, he must have a stable mind structure. But, he seems to have some problems. His strength and soul have weakened a lot. A Moreover, a level four should have a lifespan of a thousand years, but his has been reduced significantly...
Louis seemed to be very happy now. As a Ghost Wizard and the current spokesman of the Gathering of Darkness, Louis’ study of the soul was absolutely incomparable to anyone in the whole continent of Alen.
He’s very anxious, and at this time, we are the ones who have brought him hope! Louis had a confident expression on his face.
The three men who were following him all took down their hoods at the moment. It turns out that they were actually all women!
The one woman with brown hair broke into his reverie and said in a cold voice, “You are being too impulsive, as this has not been put to a vote! He is an old monster who has lived for two hundred years. Even among the level fours, he is among the top. Although he is not as capable as those in the wizard tower, he is absolutely not someone you can underestimate! Do you think he doesn’t know what you are up to?”
Louis looked up, fully alert now. He wasted no time to scoff. “I’m Louis Biketo! I’ve never lost! I’ll win this time too! And, if he wants to be a god, others will disagree with that. No matter who they are, they won’t watch him get what he wants so easily. Heckfoss wants to be a god? Hahahahah. That’s almost impossible!”
As the rest of the people within the Gathering of Darkness stood on the city wall of Niyah, following the high-spirited Louis, there were no soldiers on the wall, only some patrols to keep order. There were many civilians coming and going, as well as some mercenaries and merchants.
Many idle people in the city had also gathered here. As such, this particularly street nearby the wall seemed to be a busy street, especially in wartime.

The Gathering of Darkness and a large number of wizards immediately converged upon the central province. Some of them were suppressed by the churches and had been hiding for a long time, while others had been expelled from the wizard tower due to their evil experiments.
Still others were wanted for killing and violating the rules of the tower. All of them now journeyed towards the Sumerian Kingdom.
Among them were also many devil kin, some demon warlocks who were following the demons in the abyss, and some Ghost Wizards, like Louis. They all wanted to take this opportunity to enter the Sumerian Kingdom.
Currently, the Sumerian kingdom was undergoing drastic changes. As such, Heckfoss needed a lot of extraordinary forces and the support of Gathering of Darkness to help him realize his ambitions.
Although the life of ordinary people had not changed much, the Church of True God, which was using another name, the Church of the Dark Night, began to go to the front of the stage instead of hiding like before. The first thing that they did when they emerged was publicize their doctrine.
A large number of believers of the Church of the Dark Night poured into the streets. They held religious flags and preached their beliefs in the kingdom’s various squares and streets...
“The master of the night, the ruler of stars, and the king of dreams!”
“We offer you the highest faith. We call your name and pray to enter your kingdom!”
“Those who believe in the master of the night will be protected by gods and will enter the kingdom of gods after death, without being nailed to the wall of the dead!”
“Believe in the master of the night, and you will be redeemed!”
The priests in dark red cloaks excitedly promoted the doctrine of the Church of the Dark Night. In their words, the master of the night was the supreme ruler of the night, who guarded the stars and dreams.
“The great master of the night! You are the ruler of darkness, the supreme god!
“God! Please save me from this endless misery!”
“I am your most devout believer, so please forgive me for my sins!”
A large number of believers cried at the altar, and many people shed tears as they were listening to priests preaching.
The so-called master of the night immediately showed his extraordinary power. Priests distributed food to the poor and underprivileged families. Immediately, tens of thousands of people believed in the master of the night.
With more and more people believing in the Church of the Dark Night, it quickly dominated the entire Sumerian Kingdom, resulting in its doctrine and beliefs to spread to various cities and countless families.
Subsequently, the Sumerian Kingdom introduced a law which designated the Church of the Dark Night as the official state religion. In the name of the Church of the Dark Night, the Church of True God, which was regarded as an evil religion before, now turned into a new dominating religion in the Alen Continent.
The wizards, Ghost Wizards, and demon warlocks within the Gathering of Darkness now dressed in the religious attire of the Church of the Dark Night, then stood in front of the people and showed them kind and sincere smiles. They had become priests of the master of the night!
Louis became the high priest of the Church of the Dark Night, which gave him a high status in the Sumerian Kingdom. The abandoned temple of the Church of Light in Niyah was soon renovated, and the statue of the master of the night was placed upon the highest platform.
Louis stood on the stage of the temple, guarded by the priests of the master of the night. While pious followers knelt down on the square, Louis also showed a pious expression, as if he was the most pious believer here.
His face looked peaceful and sincere. When he looked down at the followers, he seemed to love the whole world. He then said, “Now! Let us pray for the supreme master of the night, the guardian of stars and dreams!”
