"After this war, I have more than three hundred True Gods and ten thousand Demigods under my command." Haru looked at the dense golden light of promotion on the distant battlefield and the smile on his face became extremely bright, "Sure enough, war is the shortcut for us Castle Lords to become stronger."
Relying on meditation, or as the Chinese novels said, cultivation was way too slow and it even needed talent. It was almost impossible to become a Demigod without talent while walking the path of cultivation, let alone becoming a God.
They would almost always die while trying to ignite the Divine Flames at the peak of Saint Tier, but the Castle Lords and their troops were different. Their promotion never failed. It can be said that even those powerful Gods envied this ability. For example, the Sword God William and the Ice Queen Eira.
"T-Th-Three Hundred Gods?!" Aria stuttered after hearing Haru's words. Her eyes widened with a shocked look on her face, leaving her speechless.
Haru said with a smile, "To be precise, there are three hundred and fifteen Gods now."
"Unfortunately, I didn't get promoted." Aria was a little unhappy. Her Golden War Lion Army had also participated in this war, but the exp feedback she got wasn't enough for her to become a Goddess.
However, she also understood that in the end, the number of enemies they killed was way too small since there were only a few thousand lions under her command, not to mention that almost half of them were killed in this war.
Compared to the Great Aetherium's Royal Army, their numbers and strength were both lacking. If it weren't for the Demigod Tier Angels paying more attention to them on Haru's orders, all of them would've died. Their current situation was already the best possible outcome.
What's more, the surviving lions have already leveled up, generally reaching King Tier, some becoming Saints and a few even becoming Demigods. Relatively speaking, Aria was probably the third strongest individual Castle Lord. First was obviously Haru and second was his little sister figure—Lily.
Haru said with a smile, "You are now at the peak of Demigod Tier. I believe that soon, you will also become a Goddess."
"I hope so." Aria looked at Haru happily. Soon, she would become a Goddess and Haru would fulfill his promise to her. Haru could naturally understand the longing in Aria's eyes but he wasn't in a hurry because he wanted to wait until she became a Goddess.
At this time, multiple figures teleported in front of them, with every one exuding a Divine Aura. These were the God Tier Angels and Sylvana, who returned from the Divine Battlefield from outer space.
(T/N - In case someone forgot, Sylvana is the Dryad spirit of the Elven Mother Tree.)
Haru used his Divine Sense to inspect them and found that some of them have indeed leveled up in this war. Aside from those adult Angels who haven't used Bloodline Evolution Blueprints to improve their potential, about every 60-70 Gods/Goddesses shared the exp from the 100+ Beast Gods and many of them leveled up.
Sylvana even reached the peak of Intermediate God Tier and it can be said that this war has increased the Great Aetherium's strength to a new level, making Haru more and more confident about the upcoming grand Divine War for the God King's Throne.
…
"Lord Almighty! (His Majesty!)" The Great Aetherium's Gods kneeled towards Haru. Even Lysandra, Mary and Sylvana, who were Haru's wives and even though their status had risen, at their core, they were still his loyal believers.
For Lysandra and Mary, Haru was their 'creator' while for Sylvana, he was their one true King who would lead her and her children to glory. As for their personal relationship, that was always secondary.
"All of you performed perfectly. Tell me if you need Divine Crystals to recuperate. Do not hesitate. Celestia, you stay, everyone else is free to leave."
"""Thank you, Lord Almighty!"""
Only Celestia stayed while the others left. As an Eighteen-Winged Seraphim, there was a different kind of connection between her and Haru. He has made up his mind. She would also join Lysandra, Mary and Sylvana in becoming Haru's 'wife'.
He also noticed that her Divine Aura was obviously stronger than before. After all, she has killed three High Gods in this battle alone and she wasn't included in the 'exp-sharing spell' so she got all the exp herself. She was just a few Godheads away from becoming a Supreme Goddess.
Celestia respectfully handed Haru two rings and said, "Lord Almighty, these are from Kaelix and Zarek. They also contain the spoils from the battlefield of Gods. There are a total of 116 divine bodies with the vast majority of them being Lower True Gods, a few Intermediate Gods and three High Gods. In addition, their souls have been sealed and sent to the Holy Grail."
"Great work Celestia. You haven't disappointed me." Haru smiled in appreciation, and then took the two rings. He wanted to know what loot he got by killing 100+ Gods.
