Miss Witch’s Devotion Has Gone… Twisted

"The nine Orthodox Gods have allied?"

Hearing this news, Loren couldn't believe it. After all, different Orthodox Gods were as incompatible as fire and water. Getting them to unite was indeed unlikely.

They constantly wanted to kill each other and knew full well the other gods thought the same.

Even if the gods knew Loren possessed the Severance Ritual, logically, they shouldn't have reacted like this. An Orthodox God with the Severance Ritual was far more dangerous than Loren.

Moreover, as long as they successfully defeated the other gods and seized their authorities, the threat of the Severance Ritual would plummet dramatically.

That was also why Loren dared to publicly reveal the Severance Ritual. And what he revealed were only rituals targeting a single authority, specifically to mislead the Orthodox Gods, making them try to obtain a second authority.

"But why..."

The current situation was completely different from what Loren had predicted. Before initiating a Divine War, the Orthodox Gods chose to first unite against Loren.

"How did you get this information?"

"Many high-ranking members know this information. The God of Bountiful Harvest also ordered them to assist the churches of other Orthodox Gods."

"Of course, I can't be sure what they said is true, but it's better for you to be cautious..."

"Alright..."

Loren thought it over. His plan shouldn't have gone wrong.

The Orthodox Gods were very rational. They always acted to maximize their interests, so their thoughts were easy to predict.

For them to abandon their grudges against each other and focus on dealing with Loren could only mean one thing: uniting against Loren would bring them greater benefits, or Loren's threat to them had surpassed their mutual threats.

But why...

Soon, Loren thought of a possibility.

The Perpetual Observer. They knew about the connection between Loren and the Perpetual Observer, and this was likely discovered by the God of Dreams.

After detecting this, the God of Dreams contacted the other Orthodox Gods. In this process, the God of Dreams might have even paid some price just to deal with Loren.

"This is getting troublesome..."

Loren sighed. Since things had come to this, complaining was useless. He could only think of a way to counter it first.

Now, dealing with angels was something Loren could do with his eyes closed. Even if several angels came at once, Loren was confident he could escape unscathed. But if angels from different gods came, that would be troublesome.

Normal combat couldn't kill them, and the Severance Ritual could only strip one authority at a time...

After pondering for a long time, Loren ultimately decided to flee.

Before leaving, Loren arranged some final matters for William:

"William, I'll tell you some rituals targeting other Orthodox Gods. You pass them to the Church for me. This is a great merit..."

"How should I say it?"

"Tell them directly that I told you. I've never hidden this fact. The Church has long known it was me."

"Precisely because of that, these words will have credibility."

"If someone else claimed to have a method to strip authority, the Church would definitely treat them as a fool blaspheming the Orthodox Gods."

This wasn't Loren being too confident; that was simply the truth.

"Yes, I understand."

"One more thing. When selling things, there's no need to pursue maximum profit. Speed up production, lower prices, and sell to more places."

To make money, William had been using scarcity marketing, which Loren knew.

So even after Noah added several more assembly lines, the sales volume of rings and airplanes didn't increase by much.

"Yes..."

When Loren said this, William confirmed that Loren had left backup plans for these items.

He had guessed this before. Loren wasn't a saint; there was no need for him to make so many good things. His pricing was also too low.

But none of this had anything to do with William. Now that Loren didn't care about profits, even at half price, William earned far more than before. Naturally, he couldn't refuse.

"Alright, work hard. Later, when I kill the Orthodox Gods, maybe I'll let you be the ruler."

William might not be a good person, but he was indeed loyal to Loren.

Even though Loren had started being hunted by the Church, William was still trying to help him.

So naturally, Loren wouldn't treat him badly.

"By the way, how is your standing in the family now?"

"Ever since the last purge, I took over those people's power while suppressing those who didn't accept me but had little influence."

"Now, the Chailros Family has become my one-man show. Even Yvonne has become an elder..."

Yvonne, a student who hadn't even graduated, could become an elder. This showed that the Chailros Family had indeed become William's one-man show.

He had truly not let Loren down. Loren gave him a leg up, and he really could soar with it.

"Good, then there's no need for my help. The curses I placed on them earlier are still in effect. I can now silently kill them at any time."

"Thank you..."

William understood Loren's meaning. What Loren could kill wasn't just the other members of the Chailros Family, but also him, William Chailros.

This was both concern and a threat, reminding William not to entertain improper thoughts. Loren could kill him at any time.

"I'm leaving now. Take care."

After finishing his instructions, Loren walked to the window and opened it. The next second, he vanished from William's sight. The gust of wind Loren stirred up scattered the documents in William's room.

"As expected... Master Mentor has been hiding his strength..."

Earlier, Loren had always pretended to be powerless. Even after being exposed later, he only used strange methods to kill people, never fighting directly.

Now, just from Loren's speed, William could infer that Loren's direct combat power was definitely not weak.

...

"The gods trying to unite against me. I'm noting this grudge."

While in the air, Loren took out the Little Grudge Notebook for the first time in a long while and wrote down the names of the gods.

Only then did Loren put away the notebook and proceed at full speed.

At the same time, Loren used the Abyssal Gaze Eye to check on the Witches. The group of Witches was steadily moving toward the coast. They were traveling through the wilderness, not a single Church member in sight, not even a single living person.

Meanwhile, Seraphina was obediently hiding in the hideout, helping take care of the other Witches.

Caroline was also with Seraphina. Loren could finally feel at ease.

While flying, Loren looked at the sky. It was an overcast day now.

Due to the existence of the God of Bountiful Harvest's authority, the weather here was always suitable for farming, either sunny or directly raining. Overcast days were rare.

Today's wind was also exceptionally strong. The air was filled with a rotting smell, and occasional thunder rumbled.

Everything had a chaotic feeling, making Loren feel vaguely uneasy.

His Intuition began to warn him. A faint, oppressive sensation came over him.
