Ancient God in the Modern World

Chapter 57 - C57 The Moonlight Tiger

After staring at the sun for a while, Allen shrugged his shoulder inwardly and put it on the back of his mind. He thought that it would not matter if he did not discover what or who was spying on him because he knew that sooner or later, he would be able to know it as long as he did not die.

Then, he observed Thomas and Drew. Allen smiled as noticed that their seed of faithfulness had grown. But Allen saw one problem. He has no shrine here. Without the shrine, there would be no pathfinder.

Of course, he could serve as the pathfinder but that would be a hassle. Instead, Allen could serve as a node that connects his followers temporarily to the shrine.

"Be still," Allen said.

Then, he held his hands in the air towards Thomas and Drew. He connected them to the shrine for the pathfinder to find them.

The shrine is still unable to reach this place because it was still weak as it was newly built. But over time, it will widen its scope and will be able to reach here. But as to when, Allen, too, would love to know. Just now, he used the divine energy that the shrine had stored which delayed its development for a while.

Thomas and Drew felt the aura of Allen's shrine as Allen lifted his hands in the air. They were both ecstatic as they both missed the comfort that the shrine gave them.

Then, Thomas and Drew went through the pathfinding process. The process went on for a while and as Allen was waiting, he created a dome that isolated them from the rest of the world.



Just as Allen finished creating the dome, the individuals that were doing the mission from the military arrived.

"What's wrong in this place?" One of the men asked in confusion. He could not understand what just happened here. The events that transpired are not according to the order that he knew.

At other times, this place would already be back to normal. But this place was somewhat barren. Although it could grow grasses and trees as time passed by, it was not as good as before. It was as if the nutrients in this place disappeared into thin air.

"This place is barren."

One of them commented. Then, another one urged the others to record the sight.

"Quick, record it."

And, thus, the group started recording while not letting their guard down in case anything happens. They did not let their guard down as they still did not know nor understand the events that transpired in this place.

They continued to wander. And as they walked forward, they saw a young man patting the head of a beast as if it was his pet.

For some reason, they could not decipher the strength of the young man. He looked like a mortal, but seeing that he was petting the head of a beast is, definitely, contrary to it. They are sure that he was not weak.

"Good Day, young man. What are you doing here?" One of the men asked.

Allen moved his head from the beast and looked at them. Then, he replied, "I'm taming beasts!"

If they did not see him patting the head of the beast, they would have thought that he was a fool.

This young man is no other than Allen, Divine Spirit of Life and Death. After setting up a dome, he went out to tame more beasts and serve as his eyes and his hands.

The group of men nodded. Then, they bid their farewells.

"Young man, this place is filled with dangers. Please keep safe always. We're leaving now."

"Sure," Allen said in response. But, in truth, there is no need for such words. After all, he is divine.

Then, they continued on their way and no longer cared about Allen. But little did they know, Allen smirked after they left.

"Fools!"

After that, Allen commanded the beast to leave his sight for he was already done with it. Then, Allen had decided to look for a good spot to build his shrine.

But before he could find one, he spotted a beast rushing toward him cautiously. The beast has moonlight white fur which was filled with tiger stripes. It looked ferocious and pretty at the same time.

But unlike the other beasts, this one seemed to be more intellectual. It did not attack Allen. Instead, it stared at him in curiosity.

Allen, too, stared at the beast and found out that the beast is at the ranks of a general.

Allen was unsure if he could match the beast or not. But, in any case, he was prepared to leave this place.

But contrary to his expectation, Allen could not sense any traces of hostility from the beast. Instead, the beast, for some reason, felt affectionate to him.

When the beast was within Allen's reach, it stopped and stared at Allen before moving its head close to him as if it was telling him to pat his head.

The beast's action stunned him. Then, he smiled as he understood what the beast meant and gently patted its head.

"What are you called, big guy?"

Allen was engrossed by the soft silky striped fur of the beast. It felt comfortable to the touch. At the same time, it also looked intimidating.

"Hm, I shall call you stripes," Allen said after thinking for a while.

Although Allen was divine, he was not good at naming. (And, so does the author.)

As he was petting the beast, Allen could feel a familiar aura from its bloodline. But he could not decipher what it was, not unless he awakened more of his memories.



Meanwhile, Thomas and Drew were on the Pathfinding Process. They could either become a Preacher or a Knight.

Thomas chose to become a Knight of Doom while Drew became a Preacher. Drew thought that his ability would be better used as a preacher.

Then, their side might be opposing each other, but since life and death were together in Allen's authority, they will work together to uplift the name of their Lord.

After that, they had officially ranked up to the ranks of a captain. And for the record, Allen now has one Knight of Doom, two Preachers, and one Deviant Knight. Moreover, the other followers had grown seeds of faithfulness in them.

With that, Allen was growing steadily.. Sooner or later, he would be back at his peak again.
