His eyes went wide. “No way. It actually worked? She’s real?! The old established gods really do deliver!!

He hauled it in. 40 pounds. He held it up, angled the camera to make it look even bigger, and blasted the photo and a short clip to 23 different fishing group chats before the fish had stopped flopping.

“How’d you get so lucky today?”

“Haven’t you seen the news? There’s a new Water Goddess, Gavy. Word is her domain gives fishermen some kind of passive buff. I just said a quick prayer, no system notification or anything, but something feels different. Give it a shot.”

“Worth a try.”

“Buddies, I made an offering and I’m getting bites! She’s real!”

“She actually works!”

Inside the Gold Fortress in the Little God Star System, one of the castle wings had been allocated to Nightstar Media.

George sat behind the executive desk listening to status reports, already three steps ahead of everyone in

the room.

“Push Gavy’s profile to every fishing community on the network.

“Buy traffic.

“Get the graphics team moving. The caption needs to be simple. Something like: Believe in Gavy, never go home empty-handed.

“And run the lucky charm angle. Share the Water Goddess’s blessing, guaranteed to reel in a big one.

“Is the promotional reel finished? Register the account and schedule it to drop at midnight.”

On Oceanstar, Gavy had just settled into her crystal castle, which Nighthowl had relocated to the ocean floor. The sheer size of it had nearly triggered a tsunami, and she’d spent half an hour manually steadying the tidal currents before she could lie down.

She’d barely closed her eyes when she felt it. Faith, flooding in at a speed she hadn’t experienced in years.

A group who called themselves fishermen were praying to her. Not for calm seas or safe passage. Just for fish. One fish. That was it. That was the whole prayer.

The faith energy hit her mana reserves like a river breaking a dam.

The strange part was she hadn’t done anything. Every single catch had been coincidence. These Space Alliance believers were extraordinarily easy to satisfy, and apparently completely willing to attribute

random good luck to divine intervention.

Across the dimension, Ennis sat in the Fire God’s palace and waited.

He’d planned to issue a divine proclamation today, something formal to announce that he had outlasted Mortis and now stood as the continent’s sole remaining deity. He wanted to make it official. He never got. to it.

He could feel his faith reserves $lowing. Prayers that had come in every day had simply stopped. A handfu of devoted followers had dropped out entirely. His core believers had thinned. Even the casual, barely committed ones who offered the faintest trickle of faith out of habit had gone quiet.

He had no idea what had happened two weeks earlier. Joanna had already begun rolling our the Space Alliance System.

“Space Alliance Alert: Mythic-level Summoner Joanna Lane has slain the God of Death, Mortis.

“The undead plague has ended. Human residents of the Deadwhisper Continent, welcome to the Space Alliance.

“Mandatory system installation in progress. Synchronizing system, language, and spiritual link. Talent awakening available. Class selection available.”

Nobody had been interested in farming faith. And 30 million people was too small a number to bother doing it gradually. Joanna had pushed a forced universal install and moved on.

And just like that, the remaining 30 million people erupted.

Warriors, archers, mages, professions that had once required tuition fees, inherited connections, or years of savings were suddenly open to everyone. Universal awakening. Universal class selection. Every person on that continent could now become whatever they chose.

And every one of them remembered the name that had made it possible.

Joanna had already been known here before she arrived. When she’d defeated Morgan, the Lich King, word had spread across every surviving settlement.

The Summoner who brought down a Lich King. The prophecy fulfilled, the savior arrived.

Ennis’s revival hadn’t changed that, and his refusal to join Nightstar Group and his decision to claim the Dimension Lord title hadn’t changed it either.

When the system notification went out, the reaction told the whole story.

“System Alert: The Deadwhisper Continent has been officially renamed the Ennis Continent. The Fire God Ennis has been appointed as its Dimension Lord.”

People heard it and groaned.

“Why isn’t Joanna the one managing us?”

“Exactly. He calls himself a Fire God and a War God. He couldn’t even beat the God of Death. What kind of War God is that?”

“I’m going to the Death Flower fields in the Demon Forest. I’ll mine enough to buy a portal ticket to Joanna Dimension.”

“I’d settle for the Joanna’s Divine Realm at this point. I cannot stay on this continent.”

“Ugh. Back to ore farming for zombie-suppression serum.”

“Why isn’t the Fire God clearing out the death aura? What’s he even doing?”

Outside the few settlements Ennis had personally protected, his credibility had collapsed. People who’d survived under someone else’s intervention didn’t extend faith easily to a god who’d needed rescuing himself. Getting back to his former Mythic-tier strength was going to be a long, uphill process.

Back at the Divine and Demonic Academy, Joanna didn’t know the specifics of what Ennis was dealing with, but she’d seen it coming the moment he’d decided to stay.
