Middle Realm

Middle Empire, Mother Sanctuary

The previous slump area, now known as the Mother Sanctuary. Five months ago, Cheryl suddenly had an idea. A very grand idea, one that was both risky and rewarding.

With her Providence [Heavenly Dao Maiden] and [Heavenly Empress], she was literally a walking treasure trove for cultivators. No, in fact, she could be considered the legitimate daughter of the Dao itself.

After learning up to there, she decided to turn the slump area of the Middle Empire into a clan. The slump area had millions of people alone, but only slightly less than three hundred thousand were under her.

But that wasn't a problem though. Using her unique Heavenly Dao, she created a dome around her area of influence, with only her 263 000 followers. Unfortunately the barrier was only at the Half Deity level.

But that was fine, the old fools had something else to keep them busy. Something more important than a small lass who was being secretive in the slumps.

"It's just a pity that I'm still far from getting to my ideal clan. I even gave up on making the Nuns and Almeida into deities because of this sudden inspiration." She thought out loud to herself.

"But that's fine. With the amount of followers and Believers I currently have, I have a monthly allowance of 900 faith points. Initially it was less than 300, but thanks to those two, it was multiplied by three to less than a unit."

She further talked to herself, as she assessed her own progress throughout the year. And it was quite positive.

"To change the structure of everyone here into my descendents, I'd need at most 1 unit per person, meaning that I need a total of almost 300 000 units of faith power. That's 300 000 000 faith points, gosh, that's a lot."

For now, out of the 263 000 followers, only 5 were her descendents. While the remaining 262 995 were still just pure humans, without any cultivation talent at all.

She then suddenly paused and her countenance lost all its color. "At this rate, that's more than two thousand yirs (20 000 years) until I can get that amount. Is there no other way to this?"

She couldn't help but roll on the bed, that Almeida bought for her, and in boredom even. She then looked at her two daughters, who hadn't changed at all.

"....."



Michu sat parallel to her sister, Michelle, and stared at her with a poker face. Michelle likewise did the same, but compared to Michu, she wasn't a professional at being a doll.

They were like a small baby staring at its own counterpart within a mirror. They were completely identical through and through.

"....."

"Yup, they aren't doing any help at all." Cheryl sat up and looked up at the ceiling as a sudden thought invaded her mind. "Why don't I join one of the five God Councils and leech off of them?"

The thought wasn't a bad idea. But it was useless. This was because even if she was part of a Pantheon or God Council, unless it was made up of true gods, then she will not recieve any sort of increase in faith points.

For example, two true gods sharing believers, will experience a 10% increase in their overall faith points per month. Each true god increased the percentage by a good 10%, then added altogether and divided amongst them.

In other words, a person with 200 faith points and a person with 100 faith points, will both experience a 10% increase in their faith points per month.

Becoming 220 faith points, and 110 faith points, added together was 330 faith points, then divided by two and it would be 165 faith points for each.

Yes, those with a higher income will earn less and those with a less income will earn more. Which was why, to become a pantheon, the true gods needed to have affinity with each other, lest problems arose.

So to summarize, the current true pantheons, which had dedicated leaders, were already experiencing a 120% overall increase of faith points per month. While their pantheon, was scattered throughout the Middle Realm.

Then adding the vast faith points their leaders earn, it could be deducted that each wound earn faith in tens of units each, monthly at that. And most likely hundreds of thousands of faith points annually.

Thinking about this, Cheryl couldn't help but twitch her eyes in annoyance. She was naturally kind and humble, and usually had the maternal aura of a mother.

But even she had her limits, she would be receiving more than 700 faith points initially instead of less than 400.

For example, she deducted that her peers might earn about a 300 faith points per month by now. Plus a 120%, that was 660. Then the two leaders are estimated to earn at most 15 000 faith points.

With the 120% bonus, that would be 33 000 faith points. With the twelve of them, including hers, that would be 72 600 faith points or 72,6 units if faith power.

Shared among them equally will be 6 050 faith points, which was over twenty times more than what she currently earned. But that is, if her companions really earned about a 300 faith points monthly, her seniors earning 15 000 faith points monthly.

And this is not including that being in a pantheon doubles the amount of believers one can take in. She had more than a million people who praised her name, but only a hundred were her believers. Can you imagine the frustration?

Overall, she envied everyone who was within a pantheon right now. Imagine how many more descendents would she have, if she originally earned 6 units per month.

A lot... at least, a lot compared to the current number of five.

"Aiy~" She stood up and left the room, with Michu and Michelle following behind her. Though, she always told them to stay put, they never listened.

"Greetings my lady." A young curvaceous lady, who was standing guard at the door slightly bowed her head and greeted her. She wore a Nun outfit that slightly hid her figure.

"Oh, greetings Tiara. How are things coming along on your side?" Cheryl greeted back joyfully, with a beautiful and maternal smile on her face. Causing Tiara to slightly blush due to her beauty.

After a slight pause, she forced herself to respond with a straight face and a calm tone. "...Great so far, my lady. People are getting used to the Eastern characteristics that you proposed and have gotten used to the change in environment as well."

"Good. Anything else either than that dearest?" Cheryl kept walking through the hallway and ignored Tiara's forced tone, as she asked without looking back.

"No. We are only awaiting your orders on how to develop from now on." After completely calming down, Tiara reverted back to being a stoic maid and replied instantly.

"I see." Cheryl nodded her head, still walking through the large hallway in a carefree manner. She then added on with a question, "Tell me, how do you evaluate a person's talent?"

"Talent? Talent is hard to evaluate unless one starts the process of attaining strength. We usually evaluate their potential though." Though confused, Tiara still truthfully,  and diligently asserted Cheryl's question.

Despite not knowing why she asked the question all of a sudden, she didn't neglect her job as a maid, a babysitter and a secretary of Cheryl. Today was her turn to tend to the lady's (Cheryl) needs after all.

Almost everyday was her turn. Her sisters were scared to babysit Michu and Michelle. And most were still not used to Cheryl and could not properly serve her.

"Potential? How so?" Cheryl curiously asked. Back at home, potential was also determined by how many Providences one can attain from their past, at their coming of age. She wondered if it was something similar for here too.

Tiara took a deep breathe in, and out, then began patiently explaining what she knew about testing one's potential to Cheryl. Despite being someone from the slums, she was actually quite knowledgeable.

"We use a Potential meter, which determines one's potential in terms of numbers. For people with [0] to [1] potential, they can only stay a commoner. Those with [2] to [3] are considered averagely talented.

"Those from [4] to [5] are geniuses, [6] to [7] are super geniuses. Something that is rare to come by even with regions. [8] to [9] are century geniuses. Those geniuses that are born only once in a century.

"[10] to [11] are millennium geniuses. Though they do not come once in a millenia, they do come once in a few centuries. In the Empire, there could be as many as thousands of them."

Tiara patiently worded everything she knew about potential. And one might think that millenia geniuses were not that rare, as there thousands of them.

But if one wanted to rate how vast an Empire supported by a God Council was, they had to know that such Empire ruled over one fifth of an entire Continent.
