Chapter 670: The Goddess of Victory

As the true gods of Thelos, upon hearing that someone had successfully achieved deification within their own territory, the King of the North and the God of Kings naturally rushed over immediately. Thus, Donald only informed Ciri, the God of Adventure and Seafaring who was far away in the New World, as well as Nozdormu, the Bronze Dragon King guarding the Emerald Dream Isles.
It was Catherine, the mistress of Dalaran, who witnessed the deification. The two true gods of Thelos who arrived first were filled with awe—sure enough, following the right person made it easy even to become immortal true gods! Having lived for hundreds of years, this was the first time they had seen deification so straightforward!
They promptly offered their congratulations and gifts.
Donald’s unreserved aura as a mid-tier god made the two true gods feel a hint of excitement.
“Prince Donald, have you been promoted to a mid-tier god?”
Faced with Charlie’s surprised question, Donald nodded in acknowledgment without any need to hide it.
With Donald’s direct confirmation, Charlie and Ciri once again congratulated him together.
“It seems I’ve completely lost our previous bet, yet I’m even happier than if I had won! Donald, you surely won’t refuse me and Ciri from joining your pantheon now, right?”
Donald smiled slightly and said, “Of course not. That’s precisely why I’ve invited you two here to discuss this matter. Once the others arrive, we can all talk it through together!”
Hearing this, the two kings of Thelos were overjoyed. Joining a pantheon would bring great benefits, both to them personally and to the Kingdom of Thelos. Especially since this pantheon was created by Donald, one of their own.
While they were talking, Ciri and Nozdormu also arrived quickly.
For these two totem gods, there were special teleportation arrays leading to Dalaran, allowing them to travel between the continents conveniently.
After meeting, they offered their congratulations once more and presented precious gifts.
Of course, their gifts couldn’t compare to those of Loki and Thor. The four gods, including Charlie and Ciri, were at most newly ascended deities and naturally didn’t have the generosity of the two elven gods, who immediately offered masterpieces suitable for their masters.

However, both Charlie and Xize were also very generous, giving away useful divine materials. As for Ciri and the Bronze Dragon King, Catherine being their mistress meant they had different feelings, and the gifts they offered were carefully chosen—exquisite and rare treasures from the depths of the sea. Although most of them were only sub-divine artifacts or higher-grade magical materials, with a few being at the level of elementary divine artifacts, their total value was no less than that of Charlie and Xize’s gifts.

Moreover, the number of these gifts was substantial enough to decorate a true god’s temple. Clearly, deities of the ocean realm were much richer than those on land, as the vast ocean resources were incomparable to the relatively barren land environments.

During this time, Donald noticed Cornelia’s envious expression and pulled her over to comfort her softly. Princess Ansel, who had been married for several years, still retained her lively nature. Hearing her husband’s words, she immediately brightened up and ran over to her sister to whisper to her.

As her wife as well, Donald certainly wouldn’t treat her differently. While planning an immortal path for Catherine, he had also made preparations for Cornelia long ago.

However, since Cornelia’s situation was different from Catherine’s—preferring swordsmanship and wanting to ignite her divine flame through her own strength—Donald didn’t rush her. Instead, he only provided some assistance in terms of divinity.

Cornelia had considerable talent. With Donald’s help, she quickly rose from a beginner legend to a skilled legend-level warrior. One year after her son was born, she reached the peak of legend. Moreover, because she was spiritually united with Donald, the accumulation of her divinity progressed rapidly, and she was now at a level sufficient to ignite her divine flame.

Since all the true gods were present today, Donald decided to bring double joy by allowing Cornelia to also ignite her divine flame and strive to become an immortal demi-god.

Unlike ordinary peak legend warriors who met the requirements, Cornelia was full of confidence. With a powerful deity like Donald protecting her, it would be impossible for her not to be deified. Otherwise, it could only be attributed to bad luck!

Under the protection of the six true gods, Cornelia, the Flower of Ansel, unleashed her divinity, ignited the spark of the laws, and rushed toward the realm of immortality.

Once again, fluctuations in the rules were detected in the northern region—someone was about to ignite their divine flame.

All the powerful beings from other factions on the road sensed this anomaly. However, since Dalaran was now filled with the presence of the seven supreme gods, even the mighty demigods dared not approach to investigate, let alone those at the mortal level.

Compared to those demigods who had gone through great hardships to ignite their divine flames, Cornelia still lacked some experience. She was fine at first but ran out of energy later on. Of course, if Donald hadn’t intervened, she could have barely made it through the final test and achieved immortality before her soul burned out. But even then, becoming a demigod would have been difficult, leaving her severely weakened and requiring years to recover. So, at the critical moment, Donald used the Book of Truth to infuse Cornelia with the purest soul power, allowing her to focus entirely on understanding the rules and mysteries revealed by the will of the world during the process of becoming divine.

With Donald’s help, Cornelia spent two full days and nights completing the process of igniting her divine flame without any side effects, officially becoming an immortal demigod. Overjoyed at having become a demigod, Cornelia rushed over. Before she could speak, Donald seized the opportunity, sending four brilliant lights into her forehead, then said through telepathy, “Fully comprehend these four forces of domains, and use them as a foundation to begin forging your divine ministry!”

Cornelia immediately followed his instructions, closing her eyes to sense the existence of those four domains. This was a gift Donald had prepared after finding a way to help his two wives achieve immortality.

“What are you doing, Donald?” Charlie asked anxiously after witnessing what had happened. Donald smiled and replied, “While Catherine has a talent for business, Cornelia, though highly talented and hardworking, doesn’t necessarily follow the path of forging a divine ministry through faith. There are too many outstanding swordsmen on the continent, and there are many supreme gods associated with the swordsmen ministry and related domains. It would be easy for me to forge such a ministry, but it would also offend many supreme gods. This is why those demigods in the Kingdom of Swords, Kurt, despite having the support of their kingdom’s people, failed to become divine—not because they couldn’t, but because they were too cautious and afraid to act boldly!”

“Moreover, in my eyes, the swordsmen ministry is just a professional ministry with little room for growth. So, based on Cornelia’s personality and preferences, I chose these domain forces for her to understand. If everything goes well, she will surely be able to forge a divine ministry in a short time!”

Charlie nodded in admiration upon hearing this and said no more. Donald, however, waved his hand, and two glowing spheres floated toward the gods Charlie and Cezar. “What is this?” “A demi-plane…” The two kings of the North were deeply shocked—semi-planes with stable structures and complete rules, which were rarely seen even once in a hundred years, appeared in two at once! Even an ordinary demi-god would likely have been unable to resist seizing them! “This is too precious! Donald, you should give them to Princess Catherine and the others!” Hearing Charlie’s refusal, Donald laughed heartily. “Since you’ve joined my pantheon, you’re part of the family! I can create these things easily; there’s no need to distinguish between us!” With that, he handed them the two semi-planes, which had been initially refined by his divine power. The kings of the North and the God of Kingship had no choice but to accept them with gratitude. Then Donald turned to his two subordinate gods and said, “There’s no need to envy. As earth gods, you won’t find much use in these semi-planes. I’ve already prepared something for you; I believe you’ll be able to rise to the rank of lower gods soon!” Saying this, he waved his hand again, releasing two brilliant lights that fell in front of Ciri and Nozdormu. Delighted by these gifts, the two were overjoyed. Ciri and Nozdormu received domains related to their respective divine roles. Since both were his subordinates, Donald naturally didn’t favor one over the other, giving each the most suitable reward. With the Existence of the Gods’ Codex and the Book of Fate, it was extremely easy for Donald to gather domain power—just by finding the corresponding rule domain in those books. For other true gods, the only ways to do this were by plundering other deities or drawing from their own divine essences. As the God of Adventure and Seafaring, Ciri received domains of weather and luck—the former being a rule derived from the natural domain, and the latter a branch of fate. Nozdormu, on the other hand, received a domain of time, created by Donald based on his own insights. Although both domains were relatively simple, they opened the door to higher levels for them, their value far exceeding that of ordinary true artifacts. While the God of Adventure and Seafaring and the Bronze Dragon King were joyfully exploring their newly acquired domains, mysterious fluctuations of laws suddenly emanated from Cornelia. “It really worked?”

As the Guardian of the North, who controlled the realms of deep winter and the northern winds, Charlie couldn’t help but speak in astonishment. After all, after being deified, he had quickly gathered his divine powers—thanks to the strong reliance of the Celt people over centuries and his own unwavering determination to protect them. Yet Donald had only given his wife a few domain powers, and she was still able to gather divine powers using them. This meant that Cornelia not only possessed exceptional natural talent and insight but also had chosen domains that were perfectly suited to her!
