Global Lord: Start with Divine Favor

Chapter 982 224: Divine Position Selection_2

Audrey nodded vaguely: "I think I understand. What about Father and them? Why aren't they considered as original sin."

Yuyu shrugged and said, "Even if you haven't heard that 'a gentleman loves wealth and acquires it properly,' you surely must have heard Lord and the tavern owner discussing how 'a gentleman does not steal other people's beauty,' right? Besides, you hold the 'Qingyu Divine Light,' meaning a benevolent family will have great fortune. It emphasizes that great virtue carries a heavy load and blessings are above, but if virtue doesn't match position, disaster will follow. So, they feel wealth is acceptable since it's the result of goodness. Meanwhile, being rich yet unkind often leads to a bad ending. That's why they worship the God of Wealth without feeling embarrassed. On the contrary, putting a robber, thief, or scammer on the altar would be a bit embarrassing, wouldn't it?"

"Huh?" Audrey scratched her head and said, "Listening to you, I suddenly feel so shameful. Why our divine spirits are nothing?"

Yuyu patted her shoulder, laughed, and said, "It's not really nothing. It's mainly different perspectives, like between men and women being more open, so we have specific gods for these matters. For instance, Sadomasochism or the love-add God Philotes, though she is also called the God of Love, Friendship, and handles things like Cupid's arrow. Once people are struck, they fall in love, indulge in romantic activities, and get messy. But as far as I know, Lord doesn't have such divine spirits, maybe at most a Matchmaker quietly tying strings. He recently went offline, replaced by the God of Wealth."

Lin Rui had to admit Yuyu's claim; she was quite right. It was indeed a matter of their perceptions.

Just like here, the Divine King, Thunder, and King of War have chaotic private lives involving taboo, promiscuity, nothing is left undone.

Yet, all these things are openly included in their epics; really, they don't care, openness, feel it's nothing.

But in Lin Rui's previous customs, matters between men and women were absolutely private. Not only were there no gods for these matters, but even related ones like the Matchmaker secretly just tied a string. That was the limit; entering the bridal chamber had to rely on human effort. Requesting divine spirits to help with the bridal chamber or asking Philotes for guidance in love affairs, enhancing libido, was unthinkable. No corresponding divine positions.

Though, years later, if you can't have kids, ask a few goddesses for help. They'll send children directly to women without assisting during conception!

Hence, there's no Sadomasochism, God of Love, or Philotes sort of thing.

Just can say, both parties' shame points aren't aligned.

Goodness, thinking like this, Lin Rui suddenly found that these two qualities in herself can perfectly bridge the two civilizations' gaps.

Managing money for Western civilization, handling Sadomasochism for Eastern civilization.

The combination is exceedingly perfect.

Yuyu also added, "Lord, I feel you could merge these two divine offices, making a God of Wealth who governs love."

"How's that song among the Explorers goes?"

"Ordinary people's melons, nothing stands out"

"Anyway, I'm not a fruit in the field"

"Love him or not, I'm just a passerby"

"Ah, diddle daddle, it's sinful"

"Perhaps with Matchmaker offline, love's managed by the God of Wealth"

"His co-driver, making you linger endlessly..."

Listening to this familiar rhythm, Lin Rui felt a headache, and said, "Stay away from those silly Explorers, they teach no good."

"Huh? Why? I feel each of them is talented, speaks nicely, I love being with them."

Anyway, it's although you can't understand, you feel it's classy, sounds very nice.

Just like listening to English pop songs, feeling it's rock, exciting, and sophisticated.

Lin Rui then waved his hand and said, "Anyway, avoiding mixing with them helps maintain your aura."

With Yuyu's explanation, Lin Rui at least had a rough plan for his future direction.

However, Audrey was more interested and asked, "What about me? My fate, sister? What do you think my divine position should be?"

"You?" Yuyu glanced at her and said, "Isn't it simple? Great Love!"

"Great Love?" Audrey was shocked: "What does Great Love have to do with me? I'm a Necromancer, how could that relate to love, Great Love?"

"Your chest is so big, isn't it Great Love for the world? A big chest sways, universal love!"

"Then I'd rather cut it off!" Audrey angrily said, "Can you be serious? I'm talking business, stop fooling around."

Threatened by her, Yuyu had no choice but to seriously answer and explain: "Great Love really suits you."

"Why? I don't understand it at all?" Audrey glared with wide eyes, intensely looking at Yuyu. She truly couldn't figure out how besides having a big chest, she could connect in any way with universal love!

Yuyu explained, "Taking Master of Plagues, Nagash, for example, he's an Evil God thus curses, plagues, viruses, death, and various methods disrupt the mortal realm. Oppositely, his just side is healing, compassion, health, life, endless beauty. So now, what do you think is the opposite of Great Love?"

"What is it?" Audrey asked bluntly.

"Of course it's great hate, death, exploitation! You genuinely love all mortals and believers, opposingly, certainly it's great hate towards all humans, causing death, exploitation, and slavery."

"Who said you have to be a positive divine spirit? Is Black Queen a positive divine spirit? She's cold, ruthless, killing yet absolutely fair, indifferent, isn't that great? Think about it, if Great Love's opposite, isn't it fitting you as the territory's top dark girl? Playing with each mortal, causing death and slaying, converting them into Undead Soldiers, exploiting and enslaving them to death."

Audrey couldn't help but shrink, glaring with wide eyes, trying hard to argue: "I... I didn't exploit and enslave them to death. They died first, and then I commanded them. Besides, they willingly served me, acted as my human mine."

Suddenly a series of tut-tut sounds, they must be quite interesting, actively seeking exploitation. Even bringing fortune, acting as human mine and blood slave.

The description of Twilight Highlands, ruled by the Dark Mage, indeed taxes as well as bleeding, extracting the core, really true.

Yet, although everyone teased Audrey a lot, they still had to admit Yuyu's analysis of her was quite accurate.

Audrey also gladly accepted this setting.

In a world, where someone governs life, healing, blessing, harvest as positive divine spirits, someone manages slaying, death, darkness as negative evil gods.

Between the two, none is superior to the other.

Countless mortal followers also worship Death God, God of Slaughter.

Audrey's character certainly destined her not to become a positive divine spirit, but a dark divine spirit fitting her character and preferences.

If she can exploit and enslave believers along the way, she'll be overjoyed.

In the future, perhaps all her believers will be noble lords, great slave owners, seeking her advice on maximizing human mine usage, accruing wealth.

If things go well, maybe she'll become Lin Rui's temple maiden or an attendant god in the temple.
