Nobilis of War

A flash of light appeared in the sky above Darren. The extraordinary god-level blade and sword intents had been released using the level-nine divine weapons.

Feeling panicked, Derrick closed his eyes for a moment and summoned up all his fiend power in an attempt to save himself.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The moment that he knew it was over was written all over Derrick's face.

Within seconds, Derrick's body exploded into a black cloud of blood and scattered in the air.

"Your Highness!" After seeing what had happened to Derrick, Kerr screamed and rushed at Darren, trying to kill him.

"Don't even bother." Darren drew back his blade and sword and continued, "I've killed him. Even if you kill me, when you return home, they won't forgive you. Besides, I'm too strong to kill."

Darren's words had left the fiend general in a daze. He stood with his weapon hanging at his side and his lips were stuttering.

Even if he had the ability to catch Darren, the merit he had obtained was not enough to save his own life.

He landed on the ground and slumped his shoulders.

"How about I give you a way out?" Darren offered after thinking for a moment.

"You want me to betray the great king and chief gods and follow you?" Kerr asked, raising his head all of a sudden. This was exactly what Darren expected Kerr to do.

Killing Kerr would help Darren achieve nothing, but taking him as his subordinate would make him gain a powerful helper.

"Being my subordinate and traveling the world with me is better than going back to be killed," Darren reminded him, shrugging.

"You know what? Don't even dream of it. I won't betray my king."

"Since you think your loyalty is more important than your life, then I have nothing else to say. You may leave now." Darren waved him off and turned to walk away. "You won't kill me?" Kerr hesitated, unsure if he was actually free to go or not.

"If you leave here, you will die. I don't have to kill you myself."

"You're too naive, Defiant Master. If you let me go, aren't you worried that I'll tell the great king where you hide? Once he takes action, you will never be able to flee." Derrick and Kerr had come to catch Darren in secret. After all, Derrick didn't want anyone to get a share of their merits, especially his brothers.

"Well, you are right. I really can't let you go alive." Darren gathered his blade and sword intents.

"You!" I shouldn't have said that, ' Kerr thought to himself.

The blade and sword intents flew in the air and rotated around Kerr's head. He cowered and covered his face with his hands.

"Don't kill me!" Darren didn't stop and before long, little beads of sweat were dribbling down Kerr's face. Finally, the fear of death had triumphed over his loyalty.

"I am willing to follow you." Kerr bent down and bowed his head.

"Words are not enough. We have to make an oath." To make an oath was the only feasible way to bind a living creature to another living creature.

"I have established a master and slave bond with the great king, so I cannot establish one with you." Under this bond, one master would have many servants, but the servants could only have one master. "If you can't establish a master and slave bond with Darren, then you can make an Oath of Believer," the guardian said.

"Well..." Kerr trailed off, looking at his feet.

"What is an Oath of Believer?" Darren asked, ignoring Kerr's hesitation for a moment.

"After establishing the oath, his soul will completely belong to you. It's an oath that can only be made by two kinds of creatures. The first are the nine chief gods who can make an Oath of Believer with any creature. The second kind is Defiant Masters who can enjoy the same rights with the chief gods in this aspect and build an Oath of Believer with any creature who is willing to believe in them.

Once this kind of oath is established, the effect will even be stronger than that of the master and slave bond. For example, if you meet the fiend king and order Kerr to kill him, Kerr has no choice but to kill his master. This is the effect of the Oath of Believer," the guardian explained.

"Great! I'll establish an Oath of Believer with him." That way, Darren could guarantee that Kerr would never be able to betray him and give up his location.

"But I am loyal to Chief God Whthe. I can't be loyal to you even if I wanted to," Kerr said helplessly.

"You are lying. You are not strong enough. A chief god would never allow you to be his follower. The follower of a chief god should be at your master's level at least. Even your master is not necessarily qualified to be a follower of a chief god," the guardian said.

Darren's face darkened. "You don't want to be alive at all. How dare you lie to me! Go to hell!"

"Please forgive me. I'm willing to believe in you." Even though death would be better for Kerr at that point, he still hurriedly kowtowed and begged.

"Saxon, do you know how to make such an oath?" Darren asked the guardian. He didn't really want to kill Kerr but he was leaving Darren with very little choice.

"It's very simple. As long as he kowtows devoutly and swears to you with his soul, he will be your believer. He knows how to do it," the guard replied.

"Yes, I know. I will swear." Kerr nodded and began to murmur, "The great..."

He stopped short. Darren gave him a look of warning while Kerr looked up at him helplessly.

"What's wrong?" Darren's face began to turn purple in color. 'Is he trying to fool me again?' he wondered.

"Master, may I know what your divine title is? Only by reading your divine title can I swear."

"What? I don't have a divine title." Darren became a bit impatient. This was taking far too long.

"Defiant Master, it is necessary for you to have one. You can choose it yourself. For example, you can call yourself Chief God Darren or Chief God Heaven," the guardian explained. "Okay. I see." Now that the guardian had confirmed it, Darren knew it was not another trick.

Darren went silent for a moment, thinking about what he wanted to address himself.

"Fine. You can call me Conflicting Chief God." The reason behind the name was that Darren had been cultivating conflicting skills all throughout his life.

"Yes, sir." Not daring to hesitate anymore, Kerr began to swear again, "The great Conflicting Chief God, Kerr Hughes is willing to become your most devout believer. Please accept my most reverent reverence..."

After Kerr finished swearing, a pure force flew into Darren's head and circled around the crystal inside it.

"Accepted!" As soon as Darren said the word, the pure soul power entered the crystal. It glowed brightly.

The Oath of Believer was established.

"Why is there a gray aura?" Darren sensed a faint gray aura seeping into his body.

'This is the Power of Belief!' Darren thought, feeling his heart lurch in his chest. When he had taken the test in the Godly City, he had obtained this gray power.

During his last battle on the Lothlann Continent, he gained the Power of Belief of the human race. That was why he could break the mysterious space in his head and acquire the black god's power to kill Xavier.

After the tiny bit of Power of Belief had entered his body, Darren immediately sensed that his black god's power was a little stronger.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
