Chapter 715: Changing Divine Role

Seeing the situation take a surprising turn, the God of Poison’s eyes lit up immediately. After pondering for a while with a changing expression, he finally declared firmly, “I am willing to change my divine role!”
The God of Thieves, Tord, hurriedly advised, “Haquet, have you thought this through?”
Changing one’s divine role was no trivial decision.
The God of Poison gave his friend a reassuring smile. “Don’t worry! I’ve made up my mind. After all, my current domain of divinity isn’t showing much progress—no signs of advancement in thousands of years. It’s better to switch roles and start over. At worst, I’ll fall to the status of a demigod. Surely, His Majesty Donald also needs a demigod deity!”
Seeing how open-minded Haquet was, Donald truly began to appreciate this true god. The ability to use poison in such a noble manner, while remaining neutral and avoiding alignment with evil, spoke volumes about Haquet’s true nature.
“Good. Since His Majesty Haquet trusts me so much, my Natural Divinity sect will not disappoint you. After signing this contract, you will become a full member of my sect. I will give you a satisfactory answer regarding changing your divine role later!”
With that, he conjured a contract out of thin air. It was similar to those signed with other deity sects—relatively lenient overall, yet thorough in its key aspects.
Haquet carefully read the contract and wore a satisfied, joyful smile before without hesitation imprinting his soul seal on it.
Donald nodded in approval and said, “Welcome to our ranks!”
At that moment, the other true gods of the Natural Divinity sect also loudly welcomed Haquet’s joining. “Congratulations, Haquet!”
Tord, somewhat envious, offered his blessings as well.
With the addition of the ninth true god to the Natural Divinity sect, Donald planned to hold another grand banquet—though that would have to wait until Haquet completed his role transition.
Next came matters within the Natural Divinity sect. King of Shadows Tord, being perceptive, decided to take his leave. Though their relationship was good, he was still one of Haquet’s few close friends. But Tord knew he wasn’t suited to get involved in their internal affairs.
Though envious, joining a deity sect had never been on Tord’s mind. Being naturally free-spirited and resistant to constraints, he knew he would only choose that path if faced with the threat of destruction.

The God of Thieves departed. As his friend, Haquet couldn’t help but sigh, but since everyone had their own aspirations, he wouldn’t force Thord to join him. Having successfully joined the pantheon of nature gods, Haquet, the God of Poison, immediately transformed back to his own realm before coming to Azeroth in his true form. For safety on the journey, Donald carefully assigned his demigod messenger Uther and his subordinate god, the Eternal King Nozdormu, to escort Haquet back and forth. It was quite an adventure for the gods to leave their realms alone—many true gods and powerful demons were eager to seize the chance to hunt a true god. Back in Azeroth, after getting to know each other better, Donald delivered a huge surprise to Haquet! “Changing my divine role isn’t difficult for me. I have many options for you—such as abandoning your current role and providing you with a complete lower-tier divine essence to merge with, or granting you the power of a divine domain of your choice to explore on your own!” “But my top recommendation is to choose a divine role related to your current domain. This way, you can retain your existing strength while further elevating your divine rank!” Hearing this, Haquet was overjoyed and raised a question. “Your Highness Donald, which divine role should I choose to preserve my current strength as much as possible?” Donald didn’t keep him in suspense and answered right away. “You see, both the realms of toxins and poisons are inseparably linked to medicine. In fact, medicine encompasses most of the aspects of toxins, and the medical realm holds even greater potential—becoming a mid-tier god should be straightforward. More importantly, once you gain medical powers, you can rid yourself of the negative effects of poison. Both the benevolent and neutral realms fit well with medical powers!” Donald immediately pointed out the issue that had troubled Haquet all along. Being kind by nature, he disliked the dark realm of poison and its sinister combat skills. He had chosen this path only because he had directly inherited a divine essence related to poison with no other options. It was precisely because of his disapproval of poison powers that, even after thousands of years as a true god, he remained stuck at the lower-tier god level, unable to progress further.

“Actually, even without my help, it isn’t that difficult for Princess Haquet to change her divine role—just some time is needed! Poison can kill and harm people, but it can also be used to save them. Power is merely a tool; how to use it depends on your own choices!”
Donald didn’t take credit for it, but Haquet was extremely grateful and said, “Without Lord Donald’s guidance, I might not have understood this even after another few hundred years. From today onward, I will shed the title of the God of Poison and move toward becoming the God of Medicine!”
As soon as she said this, changes occurred within Haquet’s body.
Within her originally dark green divine glow, a sacred light blending gold and milky white suddenly appeared.
After Donald explained her future path, Haquet suddenly grasped a new power and gained initial control over the field of medicine.
Of course, this was also because Haquet had accumulated great knowledge as the God of Poison over thousands of years, and her expertise in poisons and toxins was indeed closely related to medicine.
Otherwise, unless one already had a deep understanding of this field, even the most extraordinary divine talent wouldn’t allow one to instantly comprehend the power of a new field.
“It seems I was right—Princess Haquet is indeed suited for the field of medicine!”
After mastering medicine, Haquet’s appearance changed significantly. The illness caused by her connection to poison had greatly diminished, and her hunched figure became much straighter. It was believed that as her divine role changed, her condition would continue to improve.
Faced with Donald’s congratulations, Haquet, who was already rather quiet, didn’t know what to say and could only smile in gratitude, keeping these words in mind.
“Since Princess Haquet has grasped the field of medicine, there are few obstacles left in changing her divine role. I still have a Seal of Purification here, which should help you accelerate your acquisition of the title of the God of Medicine. Don’t refuse—it’s only natural for companions of the same divine lineage to help one another!”
Haquet nodded without saying more and immediately took the Seal of Purification to integrate it into her divine essence, understanding its mysteries.
