Because a Divine Nature Incarnation represents a past point in ti, its connection to the original isn’t as close as imagined.
This trait has both clear benefits and drawbacks.
The benefit, naturally, is that the Divine Nature Incarnation possesses trendous autonomy, able to think independently, execute various complex tasks alone, and is perfectly in tune with the True Gods themselves.
Because it is a fragnt split off from the True Gods themselves.
The drawback, however, is that, at the mont of its creation, the strength of the Divine Nature Incarnation is solidified, and its power is related to what the True Gods possessed at that mont, being half of that original power.
For example, if Lady Strategy’s Divine Nature Incarnation was created when she was at a First-level Godhood, then she only possesses the strength of a Demigod.
If created at a Second-level Godhood, then it would have First-level Godhood power, and so forth, rounding down.
This is not immutable.
Once the True Gods gain stronger divine power, they can upgrade their previously low godhood-created Divine Nature Incarnations, allowing them to possess power matching the current snapshot.
Creating a Divine Nature Incarnation takes ti, at the shortest one year, or it could be dozens, even hundreds of years, depending on the strength of the Divine Nature Incarnation to be created. The stronger it is, the more ti it takes, and vice versa. The strongest Divine Nature Incarnation can’t have more godhood than half of the original body’s.
The upgrade follows the sa rules.
Divine Soul possession is different.
It can both borrow the original body’s power and use the temporary convergence in Tavelan, rging the two, allowing for the use of a power far beyond that of a Divine Nature Incarnation.
This pushes the petitioner’s prayer to the extre.
Lady Strategy raised her longsword high and declared loudly, "Today, I will fight alongside you, together resisting the evil invaders. Recite my na, and I shall grant you endless courage."
Her voice, though not loud, was sufficient to reach every ear throughout Tavelan City.
"Lady Strategy."
All the people of Tavelan shouted loudly, many with a latent fervor in their words, because a True God had truly answered their prayers, fighting to protect them.
Especially the city defense soldiers on the walls of Tavelan, who beca even more fanatical, as this was their savior.
With every loud cry, whether soldier or civilian, their bodies glowed with a faint red light. An endless courage sprouted from deep within their hearts.
All cowardice, dread, fear, were greatly suppressed.
They believed that under Lady Strategy’s leadership, they would be the final victors of this war.
Especially those cursed by the Cloud of Slaughter’s murderous sound, their eyes regained clarity, breaking free from the Berserk Rampage state.
This situation, in turn, boosted morale, strengthening the city defense soldiers’ confidence. Prayers beca more sincere and intense, gathering more faith into Lady Strategy.
This was a process of mutual benefit between humans and gods.
"Whoever obstructs , be it man or god, shall die."
A roar filled with boundless anger emanated from the Cloud of Slaughter, with the Souls of Slaughter becoming even more restless, its flight speed reaching the utmost, aggressively crashing towards Tavelan as if to level the city.
"Yan, do you realize your cri, presuming to usurp divine authority in a mortal’s body, slaughtering countless innocent lives?" demanded Lady Strategy loudly.
Yet in her words, there wasn’t much anger, only an endless coldness, more like fulfilling a duty.
"Ha ha..." Not only did Khan Yamun laugh, but even the Souls of Slaughter laughed mockingly, "What is divine authority? The so-called gods are but parasites upon mortals. When mortals no longer worship and fear you, it will be your ti to fall.
Who said godhood is innate? Who said mortals cannot wield divine power?
Today, I will not only usurp divine authority, but I will use your Divine Soul to witness my path of ascension, witnessing becoming the new God of Slaughter.
Soon, all, whether mortal or god, will tremble under the na of my slaughter..."
"Arrogant, ignorant arrogance. To achieve your delusional ambition, you must first pass through ."
Lady Strategy pointed at the approaching Khan Yamun with her longsword and declared loudly once more, "In the na of the Guardian of Plans, Strategy, and Tactics, I proclaim, you and your army of souls will be trapped in my God Kingdom, and the final outco will be determined by mortals. Gunboard Chess Bastion, descend!"
Boom!
A crimson beam shot out from her longsword, cleaving through the sky. In the rift, a massive chessboard appeared out of thin air, and upon closer inspection, it was actually a gigantic citadel.
This chessboard citadel was none other than the Gunboard Chess Bastion, the God Kingdom raised by the Lady of Strategy in the Goblin Margins.
Compared to its initial rise, the scale of this citadel was more than ten tis larger, teed with silent figures, reginted troops in identical arms and armor.
They were Petitioners, reborn in the Divine Realm of the Gods after devout believers had died, appearing in the form most fitting this realm.
For instance, Petitioners appearing in the God Kingdom of the Dwarf or Gno, regardless of their original race, would typically take on the image of a Dwarf or Gno.
Whereas those in the God Kingdom of the God of the Hunt, Mara, would initially appear as their original race but over ti would be assimilated by the God Kingdom, slowly transforming into various Sage Beasts.
