God of Internet

Chapter 54: Lucy Wavecrest



But considering that the god I wanted to meet was Lucy, the girl who had a great personality and was very polite and pleasant to old Adrian, I was tempted to go and meet her.

Especially since I was already interested in forming a partnership with her to reduce my cost of divine power for the prayers of believers who wanted to learn to read and write.

Even more so, when I realized that even after I reached Embryonic Divinity Rank 9, it was becoming increasingly difficult to reduce the cost.

I knew that I could lower this cost as long as I put my mind to it, and I managed to lower it, but lowering the cost from 1 Divine Power point to 0.9 Divine Power points was very difficult, but lowering it from 0.9 to 0.85 was more difficult than the previous lowering.

This made me realize that it was going to get harder and harder from now on.

If lowering the cost was so difficult at this point, and if I wanted to make my Internet as addictive and interesting as the Internet in my previous world, it would be almost impossible to do on my own.

If I could overcome the shortcoming of having to spend so much Divine Power through a partnership with Lucy, the cost of Divine Power to keep the Internet active with users using audio would drop so much that even if I gave her a percentage of the Divine Power earned on the Internet, I would still come out ahead.

For the time being, the only use for audio on the Internet was for classes for mortals to learn to read and write, but I wanted to develop the Internet.

To introduce music, radio, TV shows, movies, games, and all kinds of different media, so that people\'s lives couldn\'t go on without the Internet, just like in my previous world.

So, despite trying to find various excuses not to go, I knew I had to go and meet Lucy.

Of course, even though I had a positive impression of her, I still had to be careful, so I even stopped my Divine Power study with my main body and just let today\'s Divine Power income accumulate in my body so that I would have enough resources in case a battle happened.

=========================

Today I made a profit of over 500k Divine Power Points, something I\'m sure even the best gods in this test were far from achieving in total, and I managed to do it in just one day...

Unfortunately, the goddess I was about to meet was no ordinary goddess.

According to Internet users in Novera, people in that country prayed to Lucy on average twice a week, and since she didn\'t have the cost in Divine Power that I had with the Internet, she received that Divine Power directly into her body.

With a population slightly smaller than Arcantor\'s, Novera probably gave Lucy about 400,000 believers, which equated to 800,000 Divine Power points per week.

And since it had been four weeks since the trial began, she had already received at least 3,200,000 Divine Power points!

If she had just absorbed this Divine Power and not spent it on anything else, she could already be a Rank 9 Embryonic Divinity, just like me.

But the likelihood of that happening was very low.

Both because all the teachers rejected the idea of students running out of Divine Power after each evolution, and because my followers in Novera commented on how many "miracles" she was doing for the kingdom, which would result in a huge expenditure of Divine Power.

If I had to guess, I\'d say that Lucy was either at rank 7 with a few million Divine Power saved up for a possible battle that might arise and to perform more miracles for mortals, trying to maintain the twice-a-week prayer frequency, or she was at rank 8 with less Divine Power now, but using less Divine Power per miracle and being able to make stronger attacks with the Divine Power she did have.

Both situations were worrisome, and I personally would have preferred her to be at level 8.

But when I approached the place where she had arranged to meet my Divine Consciousness, I sensed another Divine Consciousness waiting for me there, a Divine Consciousness of a rank 7 god...

This was more problematic...

Since her Rank 7 had at least one million Divine Energy points available for combat, I would need to expend 8 to 9 million Divine Energy points to match the level of destruction she could cause at that moment, a far cry from the 2.5 million I had available now.

But I continued to float up to that position, and as I got closer, I saw the outline of a familiar girl floating in the sky, looking around with a calm expression on her face.

Since I was two ranks above her, I could sense her before she sensed me, so I was able to observe her more calmly before approaching her.

Lucy\'s appearance had changed a lot since the last time I saw her.

Instead of a shy girl who was afraid to make eye contact with other students despite her great potential, Lucy now floated with a confident straight back, showing that she had accepted the responsibility of being a god.

As her rank increased, so did her divine quality.

Just as my eyes became brighter, her long blue hair also became longer, and the feeling and waves running through it became more intense, even producing a glow at the end.

To match the blue hair, her blue eyes showed the seriousness of the responsibility she had, matching a blue dress that gave me the impression of looking like the texture of water, clinging to her delicate body, making her look very elegant.

Her elegance was the complete opposite of my casualness.

Since I didn\'t appear to mortals with my divine consciousness, I never worried about the clothes I wore.

Although my appearance was very good, it was slightly overshadowed by the simple, comfortable clothes I wore.

At this point, could I use my divine power to make a more beautiful and elegant outfit? Yes, but to be honest, I didn\'t want to bother.

So I just flew up to her calmly and confidently until she noticed my presence and looked at me curiously.

As she looked at my face, the concentrated expression on her face changed to one of genuine surprise, followed by a small smile on her face as she raised her hand and waved at me.

"So the God of the Internet really is you, Adrian!" She said excitedly as she flew towards me with a smile on her face, not in the least bothered by my outfit.

"Is it really me? Did you know that I was the God of the Internet?" I asked in surprise.

"Yes, when the mortals started praying and told me about a caravan entering the kingdom and preaching about another god, it almost caused them to kill the merchants, but luckily I thought of all the students at the school and knew that there was no one with such a unique deity as the \'Internet\', so in my mind there was only one person left who could do that! That\'s why I asked them not to interfere with the caravan, after I realized that the Internet would not harm my believers". Lucy quickly began to explain everything to me as she finally came right up to me and looked into my sparkling eyes with a beautiful smile on her face that took me by surprise.

From what I remembered, even though they had a good relationship, they hadn\'t been that close before, right?

But this speech of hers made me realize a problem, since her believers were really grateful to her, it was understandable that the information of another god\'s caravan entering their territory could cause conflicts.

Fortunately, she quickly deduced that I was the god behind it and didn\'t want to kill my believers.

"Thank you for your mercy towards my believers, if I had known this was your kingdom, I wouldn\'t have sent them to spread the Internet here." I lied as I bowed my head slightly.

I would still have sent the believers to her kingdom if I had known it was hers, but I would have tried to be more discreet.

Hearing my apology, Lucy quickly waved her hands as she replied. "No need to apologize, it\'s all part of the test, I wouldn\'t be mad at you for something like that."

When she finished saying this, Lucy took a deep breath and I could feel her personality changing in front of me as she prepared for what she was going to say next.

Much more serious than before, Lucy spoke. "Knowing that you are the God of the Internet really makes things a lot easier, my proposal for a partnership was a test to see if it really was you, since this has been confirmed, we can now discuss a possible alliance between our two kingdoms."

As she said this, Lucy let out some of her divine power, trying to show dominance for the possible negotiation that would unfold, not realizing that my current rank was higher than hers.

Not to mention that from what she said, it was clear that she didn\'t know that I no longer ruled a single realm, but that I currently ruled two realms.

This meant that the change of dominance in this negotiation had quietly changed hands.
