After sending the message, James just leans down and watch his believers go to work, In the process of watching them, he drifts asleep.
"Yawn"
Waking up, he felt oddly at peace as if all his muscles were relaxed and are working in perfect sync with each other, but before he could do anything he was bombarded with notifications from the system. "Hmmm, what are all these, did something major happened while I was asleep" he pondered to him self.
"Let's take a look at the notifications, shall we" sitting properly on the ground, he brings up the notifications panel of the system, and was surprised by what he saw.
"Ding"
[Your believer has killed a mutated wild dog, 700 experience point]
"Ding"
[Your believer has killed a vermilion wolf, 25,000 experience point]
"Ding"
"Your believer has converted a new believer, 10,000 experience point]
"Ding"
[Your believer has killed...…
James just kept looking at the notifications the just kept flashing in his eyes with a dumbfounded expression on his face, "what happened" James asked perplexed.
"How is Sam killing all this beast" James was still confused about all the notifications he received, so he decided to check up on Sam, only to find out that Sam was almost at the village, James didn't understand what was going on, how did Sam get there so fast , even with the sky rending wolf moving at top speed, it will still take him a week or two by the distance he saw.
Feeling a headache coming on he decided to stop thinking about it, he then decided to check up on Peter only to find him training a young man who seems to be in his early twenties.
"Hmmm, seeing all the beast that Sam has killed that's a considerable amount of experience, my rank must have gone up quite a bit, let's see" and with that he calls out.

Looking at his status, James was once again dumbfounded, he leveled up quite a bit, a lot actually, he was now a supreme God.
"Am a supreme God now, how. Not that am not happy with it but, how did it happen so fast." While thinking about how he leveled up so fast{well he knew how but…) he saw an icon flashing, he focused on it and two notification came up, the fist one left him surprised but the second one shocked him to the bone.
"Ding"
[Congratulations host for fully integrating with the soul of the God Xerxes]
"Reward"
[Full control over the elements in your authority and Xerxes memories]
"tch, stingy, James could6help but curse, but he must say now he now could fully remember everything that Xerxes experience, which was good but it also came with his emotions too and that he didn't like.
"Ding"
[WARNING]
[You have two days left before the battle of atonement, please prepare accordingly]
"ptfffff"
James spat out a Mouthful of spit, " what the f**k, when did that happen"
"Oh no don't tell me that I slept for seventy days, when did that happen"
"Hey system, what happened" of course he didn't receive a reply from the system, "I think am becoming more like a bear than a God" James couldn't help but sigh.
"but that's one hell of a way to pass the time" he chuckled to himself. "Guess I got to get ready too it's almost time, hmmm, Sam is almost at the village, oh and he's already at the Nivara realm, that's goo that's good," James praised him. "what about Peter, oh me managed to reach the Nascent soul realm, that's good too" James thought, he didn't have an opportunity like Sam, he had to train by himself using the Thunder scriptures that James provided, so that goes to say that he is more talented than Sam.
Looking closer James could see other people also mediating close to Peter, five to be exact, he could sense that they were his believers too, and that would bring up the number of his believers up to eight, but the system only registered that he had five believers. "The strongest one's are only at the foundation building realm, hmmm I guess they'll have to do, any way I can't afford to be picky at this stage" James muttered to himself.
"its almost time, and am feeling nervous, hmmm, why does it feel like am about to be called to the principals office" James says with a smile on his face.
