"...Therefore, divine power is an energy that fundamentally exists within the bodies of all human beings, the creations of God. It is unlike the magic power or dharma that the chosen are born with. However, that's also why it's difficult to train to be used in practice."

Professor Griver Lanfeld swallowed the anger boiling from within as he spoke.

The atmosphere in the class was a mess, no matter how you look at it.

In the first place, there's already not that many people attending. And now, most of them aren't even listening.

Even those who had once made efforts to catch his eye and get a good evaluation are now ignoring him without a care.

'...If only that bastard wasn't a devil worshipper.'

He gritted his teeth, thinking of Marquis Riverback.

Since the Marquis was a young and prosperous businessman, Griver thought that he would be enjoying a sweet filling by using the Marquis. But, in the end, all he got was a damned gangjeong[1].

That's right. An empty gangjeong.

Griver didn't care whether Marquis Riverback was a devil worshipper or not.

The only thing that matters was whether he brings him benefits.

In that sense.

"Um, I have a question."

Griver wasn't having this person raising his hand.

Dowd Campbell.

This was the guy who took his emergency tool and erected the barrier during the monster incident.

"Then, what is the best way to quickly increase the total amount of divine power and proficiency in blessing?"

"...The best way to increase divine power and proficiency is by actually using it."

He replied in a stern voice.

"Don't ask for the obvious. That's a very low-level question for an Elfante student."

"Yes, my bad."

"Devote yourself to training. I'm ashamed to even listen to that."

Although Griver intentionally used such an aggressive language to belittle the other person, the guy was simply smiling without any sign of anger.

However.

Those eyes weren't smiling at all.

"..."

Griver felt a chill run down his spine and averted his gaze.

He could clearly feel something weird coming from that side.

"...That's it for today's class."

He didn't really want to spend any more time facing that guy. In that context, he ended the class a bit earlier than usual.

Walking along the corridor, Griver thought about the student named Dowd.

'...He looks like that person.'

A person who has spoken once through Marquis Riverback.

A strange person who calls themselves the Prophet.

He's never seen their face or anything, but he vividly remembers the chilling impression he felt from them.

The eerie sensation he felt from that guy just now is very similar to that.

Hell, they might even be the same person.

'Well, either way, won't cross paths in the future.'

Now in his office, he thought with a smile.
