My Enchanting System

Chapter 881: The Overgod is Everywhere



Kali waved her hand, and the land around the village cracked, and a black river flew from the mountain, pouring into the abyss hole. "Gods are active. Don't slack off on me." She smiled.

"To explain it." Cain looked at the demons. "Worshipping a god grants them divine power, which they usually use to bless their people or grant clerics holy magic. If you aren't worshipping your god, they won't be able to give you any help. Think of it like taxes, that money used to maintain roads and pay for what society needs."

"Most taxes end up used for the lord's pleasure. We've got enough of Damiri extortion." The village's chief stared at Cain. "Gods are the same."

"You're both right and wrong." Cain scratched his head. "Damiri isn't wasting the taxes. He's using them to keep the stronger mindless demons at bay. They might not be as strong as that worm, but they are similar. Without him, a village like this would've been destroyed decades ago."

"To put it simply. Pary to Kali, and she'll help you." Kayden walked forward. "That's the rule."

The demons looked at each other. "We'll fix Kali's shrine as soon as we can." They couldn't possibly say no with their goddess standing there, let alone when the god slayer and the overgod were watching.

After taking several supplies like hooks, ropes, lanterns, and some rations. They slowly trailed down the hole using the regular route of caves. Knowing the situation of the town, Cain granted Kali enough divine magic for her to grant them a blessing. Weak mindless demons would change their feed routes a bit to pass close by. Which made a decent food source.

The river that Kali opened also allowed them to fish and grow crops, which gave the town a chance to prosper.

"Why are we walking?" Kayden looked at Cain as they slowly pushed deeper into the hole.

"We can teleport down, but there is no need for that. One of my clones is already standing beside the shard, guarding and analyzing it. It'll take me a while to control it, so we can take our time walking. It'll also serve as a great experience for Kali." Cain explained with a smile. "Since I'm around, there is no need to rush things."

"Kali wants to play!" Kali shouted as she sat on Kayden's shoulders.

"I guess that makes sense." Kayden blinked, "Say, if you're omnipotent, does that mean you can see the past and future?"

"Sadly, I can. It's one of the reasons I'm still not perfect. I can't hold all that amount of information." Cain lifted his hand, "Do you have something you want to know? I even know who's going to marry Kali." He smiled.

"Kali's husband?!" Kali gasped, "Is it daddy? You!"

Cain shook his head, "Your husband hasn't been born yet. A powerful dragon of destruction. I can see you two training in the middle of nowhere."

Kayden turned toward Cain. "I wanted to ask about my madness. The stronger I get, the harder it's to keep under control."

"Sadly, you'll never fully heal as it's a part of you by now. But you'll be able to control it to the point it's no longer a problem." Cain replied, "Can't say much though. Forbidden knowledge is also any knowledge that can change the future."

"Got it. Thank you." Kayden smiled. "You aren't as bad as I thought you."

"What?"

"You do act like a jerk sometimes."

"I don't. I'm the most not-a-jerk person in the world."

Kayden laughed, "Don't get heated up. I'm joking. This trip is going to be long. Are you sure it's okay for me to be here and not in the mortal world?"

"Yes. Lilia had a boatload of clones that were converted to me, and they are flying everyone, like this one I'm talking to you with. They all have access to my full power. So they won't be defeated." Cain smiled.

"Where is your real body then?"

"It's in the ethereal realm. I'm too massive to exist in any of the planes. You'll recognize me quickly, a massive mass of writhing tentacles and brains also as big as a small demi-plane." Cain patted his chest, "And my humanoid body is in my house at the heavens. For protection."

"So you're chilling there while we're going on a mission here?" Kayden stared at him.

"I'm here with you, aren't I?" Cain smiled. "This clone is me. Think of it like you're trying to write with one hand and slash with the other."

"I hope you can focus on everything at once."

"I'm the overgod. That won't be a problem."

"So Uncle Cain can be everywhere?" Kali looked at him with a confused face.

"You're right. I'm everywhere. That's one of the requirements of being an overgod. The ability to see everything."

"Don't spy on people."

"I don't, as long as they are normal people or someone I know. You won't find me spying on you or Dolrig in Furberg. I do keep an eye on the whole world, looking for abominations. My senses also activate when someone prays to me." Cain waved his hands. "Cain Lisworth, overgod, ruler of the divines, the world, anything that can allude to an omnipotent power would tick my divine perception."

Cain looked at the ceiling, "That's right. I'm everywhere."

The vision shifted from the cave all the way back to Furberg where approached the gate of his mansion.

"Halt! Stranger, this is Cain Lisworth's property. State your business." A guard pointed his spear at Cain's face.

"Hey, Jhon. This guy has white hair and a steel staff." The second guard whispered to his friend. "It could be him."

"We have a lot of fakes trying to sneak in by painting their hair." The guard replied, "I don't trust strangers without proof."

Cain smiled. "What a good guard. It's rare to find people as serious as you." Cain took a step forward, pushing the spear with his neck as if it was nothing.

"But, don't be too serious. Take the day off, your daughter is sick, isn't she?"

"You bastard. Trying to threaten me!" The guard growled, taking a step back as veins bulged on his arms. "You'll pay for it."

Cain blinked, moving to pull a bag of medicine from beneath his coat.

[Action Surge] The guard stomped forward, swinging his spear at Cain's head, neck, and chest, unleashing a barrage of eight attacks in the blink of an eye.

Cain didn't seem to budge so the guard kept swinging as hard and as fast as he could. [Action Surge] [Action Surge] [Action Surge] [Action Surge], unleashing a storm of attacks that almost cracked the marble ground beneath their feet, but even so, Cain kept looking for the medicine pouch, not reacting to attacks at all.

Infuriated, the guard roared, pulling his spear back and charging it with a massive bolt of lightning. [Secret Art: Blue Dragon Horn] His spear seems to be made from a young blue dragon's horn and can unleash a powerful burst of lightning magic.

"Die!" The guard screamed as he thrust toward Cain's chest, unleashing a massive burst of lightning in a deafening shockwave. CLAP!

Sebas who was inside the mansion heard the thunderclap and rushed to the window. He's the one who bought the expensive weapons for the guards to use, and he knew who unleashed the attack.

The spear stopped at Cain's chest, unable to pierce and the lightning did no damage at all. "Found it!"

With a smile, Cain pulled a small pouch of medicine, "It'll help your daughter recover in a day." He extended his hand to the guard.

"Who are you?!" The guard gasped, no human should survive that attack, let alone unfazed.

"You fool! That's the house's lord, Cain Lisworth!" Sebas shouted out of the window, "Back away and apologize at once!"

The guard paled as Cain smiled, "No need." he shook the medicine pouch, "It'll take more than this to anger me. Take this, it'll help."

Cain then turned toward Sebas, "His daughter is sick, couldn't you give him a day off?"

"I didn't know. He didn't tell me."

"Go be with your family until the sickness goes away. You'll still get paid so don't worry, and I'll cover any expenses you have." Cain walked past the guard as the second guard opened the gate, letting Cain inside to meet Sebas.

*****

Sebas bowed, "My lord, it's been a while."

"How you've been doing? Sebas." Cain asked with a smile as he walked beside Sebas inside the mansion.

"Well, thanks to you. Please forgive that guard, he's a good guy." Sebas asked.

"No need to worry. As I said, It'll take way more than that to anger me." He smiled, looking around to see a few maids that he doesn't recognize poking through the gap in a semi-opened door.

"I hired a few." Seba looked at Cain, "Three to help maintain the house. But I wanted to hire more."

"Don't tell me it's a fun issue. I'm sure I told you. You can ask for money any time you want." Cain looked at him.

"It's not a money issue. I just didn't find suitable maids." He replied, Wiping the sweat off his face.

Cain thought, "How about this? Hire the absolute worst maid you find."

"Got it."

"Can I see the new maids?"

"Yeah. I'll call them to the office. All have signed an advanced contract, it'll be on your desk."
