Chapter 103 【Prophecy】 Divine Profession! 【Seeking Recommendation Votes】

This is the rule.
Deities are not merciful beings, especially an Evil God.
Soren looked at the Ancient Red Dragon in front of him, noticing the lingering sense of unease in its eyes, and then slowly said, “I still need some dragon blood.”
Dragon blood?
Faced with Soren’s request, the Ancient Red Dragon hesitated not at all and swiftly used its razor-sharp claws to slice open its forelimb, followed by a gush of dragon blood gushing out. It used a spell to collect the blood and respectfully presented it to Soren. After offering a generous amount of dragon blood, the Ancient Red Dragon’s expression relaxed significantly.
It is normal to offend an Evil God and pay a price in blood.
Having just presented an apology, while that was merely its own wish, whether the Evil God was satisfied was open to interpretation. However, Soren requesting dragon blood indicated that he was willing to let the Ancient Red Dragon go.
Offering treasure, presenting dragon blood.
To the Ancient Red Dragon, Soren’s demand seemed quite reasonable and fitting for an Evil God, bringing a quiet sigh of relief.
For an Ancient Red Dragon weighing over fifty tons, a little dragon blood means nothing; the cost of angering a Medium Divine Power Evil God is unbearable for it.
Soren waved his hand to gather the dragon blood.
Now is not the time to slay an Ancient Red Dragon. Soren was ninety percent confident he could defeat it, but he did not have absolute confidence in stopping its escape. After all, dragons can fly, and even a True God might not be able to catch one in the sky. Soren sealed the teleportation spell, but he could not seal the dragon’s ability to fly. If he acted and allowed the dragon to escape, Soren would naturally be unafraid, but if the Ancient Red Dragon retaliated against Modo, that would certainly be a troublesome matter.
So, either do not strike, or if striking, he must ensure he can kill the opponent.
The brilliance of the teleportation spell reappeared.
As Soren’s figure entered the portal, the Ancient Red Dragon in front of him cautiously let out a sigh of relief.
In the tumultuous period of the Saint’s Cataclysm, even a usually powerful Ancient Red Dragon must keep a low profile, as who knows when it might run into a True God walking among mortals.
………………
Modo City.
After returning to Modo City, Soren quickly found Gloria.
Recently, she had been residing in the Arcane Tower. When Gloria saw Soren suddenly appear on the astrological platform, her expression showed a bit of surprise, which turned into even greater astonishment when she noticed the scepter in Soren’s hand.
“Saphiras’ Scepter?” Gloria murmured.
Soren nodded at her words, then handed over the scepter, softly saying, “Prophet – Saphiras.”
“See if it fits.”
No one was more suited to this scepter than Gloria, for she herself possesses the ability of divination as a Legendary Witch.
Faced with the scepter Soren offered, Gloria hesitated slightly. But after seeing Soren’s determined gaze, she slowly grasped the scepter.
A glimmer of golden radiance appeared!
The moment Gloria held Saphiras’ Scepter, a golden divine light emerged.
The power from Prophet – Saphiras was absorbed by her, completely and actively merging into her body, indicating that Gloria was highly compatible with the divine professions of 【Prophecy】, 【Mage】, 【Truth】, and 【Fate】, with a particularly high fit for the 【Prophecy】 profession.
This phenomenon did not occur with Soren, as he only possessed a slight compatibility with the 【Mage】 divine profession.
Divine radiance enveloped Gloria!
Her figure spontaneously began to rise, and with the divine light, her once silvery hair gradually disappeared and transformed back into long, smooth black hair.
——【Prophecy】 Divine Profession!
The power from Saphiras’ Scepter began to transfer to Gloria’s body. The greatest advantage of the Saint’s Cataclysm is that even mortals can more easily absorb divinity.
“How does it feel?”
As the divine radiance faded, the Gloria in front of Soren had completely changed.
Her beautiful eyes now shimmered with a hint of golden light, indicating that she had become a Demigod, more easily advanced than Vivian, and the 【Prophecy】 profession was perfectly tailored for her.
Gloria was extraordinarily compatible in both strength and specialty!
“I saw some things beyond prophecy.” A smile appeared on Gloria’s face as she gently brushed aside a strand of hair hanging by her ear, softly saying, “It’s a wonderful feeling! I’ve never encountered such a situation before. Even without casting any spells, I can vaguely sense some events that are about to happen in the future.”
Soren nodded, raising his hand to stop Gloria from saying more, and said seriously, “No matter what you see, do not tell me.”
“The future is changeable.”
“The fate you can see is just one of its tributaries. What you need to do now is familiarize yourself with the power of divinity. As a newly advanced Demigod, you must learn to control this power rather than being controlled by it.”
“And.”
“Be careful of Saphiras inside the scepter. Although I have sealed his consciousness, you must be cautious not to be influenced by him.”
Soren sealed Saphiras.
That’s why Gloria was able to so easily obtain the 【Prophecy】 divine profession. However, he could not completely eliminate the opponent yet, as Gloria still needed to take the 【Truth】, 【Fate】, and 【Mage】 divine professions from him.
Azus had fallen.
Part of the Mage divine profession returned to Saphiras, and what Gloria could have was not just 【Prophecy】; she was also very compatible with other divine professions.
However.
If Gloria accepted these divine professions, her relationship with the Goddess of Magic would become quite delicate. She is Soren’s woman, so she cannot become a servant of the Goddess of Magic. This is something to face in the future, but it does not need to be hurriedly dealt with now.
………………
After handing the Saphiras’ Scepter to Gloria.
Soren went to the Fallen Witch’s laboratory. The recent divine radiance had not escaped her notice, and it was obvious that the Fallen Witch already knew what Soren had brought back.
“Did you prepare something good for me?”
Upon seeing Soren, the Fallen Witch playfully flicked her long hair and smiled, seductively saying, “Don’t forget I am also well-versed in divination spells. I can sense that you brought me something remarkable.”
Soren smiled at her words.
There was no need to be overly polite with the Fallen Witch; he took out the Archmage’s Staff and handed it to her, stating solemnly, “You still need to go to the City of Imprints, right?”
The Fallen Witch nodded, softly saying, “To build a true Floating City, I have to make a trip to the City of Imprints.”
Soren understood this. He took off his cloak and handed it to her as well, saying, “This is the Archmage’s Staff, which possesses the ability to remain permanently invisible at any time and place. This is the Anti-Detection Cloak; wearing it, no spell can detect your invisibility.”
“I’m sorry.”
“As a deity, I cannot enter the City of Imprints. So I can only retrieve these two items for you. Be sure to pay attention to your safety when you go to the City of Imprints.”
“If you encounter any danger you cannot deal with, use these two items to return first.”
“The Floating City is far less important than you!”
Archmage’s Staff.
Anti-Detection Cloak.
This is a paired set of artifacts. Once equipped, unless facing an enemy with the True Eye, it would be utterly impossible to discover the Fallen Witch’s presence.
Faced with the two artifacts Soren handed over, the Fallen Witch remained silent for a while before accepting them. However, just as Soren was about to turn and leave, she suddenly stepped forward, hugged Soren, and kissed him fiercely. It seemed at that moment she didn’t want to hide her feelings anymore, not caring that Gloria might perceive everything happening here; she just hugged Soren tightly and kissed him intensely.
And then, there was no “and then.”
