Chapter 653 Done all he could do
( 2 days later , Purplehaze city )
2 days after the opening ceremony , Rudra could no longer hold off the crowd of people wanting to wors.h.i.+p the G.o.d of death as it would be counterproductive to his goal of getting most followers.
He could see that the forums had reached an boiling point and the time to open was finally here. Should he wait any longer it would be counterproductive and may permanently hurt the church"s reputation .
Deciding to visit the temple to wors.h.i.+p the G.o.d once himself first , Rudra went inside the temple and looked at Hades"s statue and said " Look , i know you can somehow hear me , and i know you have been watching over me all these months.
I can feel a connection between me and you and i know that you can see the world through my eyes when you will it.
I don"t understand how the voice emminates from the statue or how taxing it is for you to do that. I don"t expect you to talk to me like we are buddies everyday , but let me give you some facts.
If you want your relegion to boom . Those that pray to you wholeheartedly today , please grant some of them the power to summon something undead.
Do it for 5 people and i will handle the rest myself ....
If you can bless everyone , then nothing better than it , but i know that rewards also come at a price and with you being weakened i don"t know how much you can take.
The world had changed a lot since the last time you were around , and the hype surrounding this church is unreal at the moment and this is our big break .
Ive done everything i can from my end , the rest of today is on you . Im gonna be right here doing my duty as the pope , just like you wanted to . Do what you want with your beleivers now ".
Rudra sighed as he said all this as he looked at the ma.s.sive statue with complicated emotions. Standing at its base he changed from his royal robes into silky black ones as he changed his appearance to that befitting a pope and activated his aura power.
Looking at the gate he signalled the guard and said " Let them come ... In order ".
Since the news broke out that devouts would be allowed to enter in a single line in files of 3 , a 6 killometers long line was formed from the church of deaths gate as people madly waited for the public opening.
The cheers when the gates finally opened were unreal , as the first three devouts entered the church and were mesmerized by the luxurious architecture.
When their eyes fell on the death G.o.d however , they did not recieve the debuff that the pope and Cervantez did , as there was no fear involved.
The church of death was nothing like the church of light , there was no Seating , there was no grand entrance , there was no comfort in it , yet there was something captivating that made one"s mind want to stay longer.
Rudra stood uptight as he welcomed the three devouts and said , slice the blade and offer your blood .... May the death G.o.d bless you.
As the three men looked at the magnificent crystal clear sword placed on the foot of the G.o.d , they gulped nervously and one went onto grab it.
Rudra instantly stopped his hand as he said , no need to pick it , just slide your hand over it.
The sword was just too precious to be handled by any amateur , as a casual slice by this sword could seperate a man"s body in two.
As directed the three men cut their hands and dripped the blood on Hades"s feet as they repeated the prayer Rudra said 2 days ago.
Rudra did not antic.i.p.ate that the moment the three did as he directed he would get a system notification himself .
SYSTEM NOTIFICATION : " Detected , Player " Syun hun ming " " Su lu park " " Mandala " performed the ceremony to convert to the relegion of death ... Do you wish to accept them into your relegion as the pope? ".
Yes ? ... No?
Rudra was surprised to see the option and just as he clicked yes , the three men recieved blessings from Hades.
All 3 of them getting a +5 temporary stat boost for all stats for one day!
The expressions of the three turned incredibly joyful as they thanked the death G.o.d and Rudra profusely .
But Rudra did not seem to see it at the moment , as he was busy dealing with another system notification that had popped up.

As Rudra stared the screen blankly , he realised that the profit to be made from growing this relegion was not for Hades alone .
It was a highway for him as well to becoming stronger in the shortest amount of time.
Gulping , Rudra became excited about what the future held for him.
