Chapter 1853 Making Use of the Blessing Bestowment

??Eren then looked at Naya before giving her the next task.
"Since this so-called sea god has dared to mess with my affairs, he needs to pay the price.
Find out all you can about this sea god. See if he has any demi-god stationed in the deep seas.
If you do find one, don't approach him but retract and report to me," he said before rolling up his sleeves.
Eren looked at the number of Practitioners who had been arranged neatly inside their Echidna's Placenta capsules in a row. All of them had their eyes closed and lost their consciousness due to Altair's restrictions on them.
Since a new batch of the Practitioners had been delivered to his door, Eren decided to start with his next round of experiments. After detonating Lemaar Saaya in his fight against Nira, he lacked a pseudo-avatar after all.
The one who was going to replace Lemaar would come from this batch of prisoners.
Before sending Naya on a mission, Eren made sure to give her enough life-saving items that could help her during the pinch times. From various premium-grade potions suited for varying needs to several offensive and defensive artifacts that could be used at a moment's notice, Naya was given everything she could possibly need during the mission.
Of course, Eren didn't send off Naya right away. He ordered her to take some rest while he took care of some other businesses. He started the preliminary round of a selection process for his pseudo-avatar creation, discarding almost half of the prisoners in his captivity inside the underground facility.
During this time, Ashton and Hilda completed their task and came back to Eren. They had been assigned the task of clearing away the traces of Lemaar Saaya's demonic cult after he died during the clash with Nira. The fiends had done their job flawlessly, doing exactly what Eren had asked them to do.
Due to the thorough job done by the fiendish couple, when Nira's team identified Lemaar's identity and traced back his demonic cult, they couldn't figure anything out about Eren due to the demonic cult's destruction.
The remnants of the demonic cult that were once operated by Lemaar were also killed brutally by Eren's fiends, turning Nira's efforts to find any clues about Lemaar's supposed death and possession by Eren's consciousness completely futile.
Eren asked the fiendish couple to accompany Naya on her mission when they came back to him. After all, he didn't think that he should send Naya into enemy territory without giving her the backup she needed. After he had decided to seize a particular sea god's territory, he had already started treating him as his enemy.
During this time, the fiend army Eren had developed in Anfang had also managed to find its way to him. These were the same fiends Eren had created in Eliza's Purgatory.
The earlier variants of fiends that Eren had created as a way to test his powers also managed to find Eren. These fiends were led by Harja Mel and Darven.
Harja Mel and Darven were technically Eren's batchmates. They had played crucial roles in providing him with crucial intel during the war between the two kingdoms, Edinburgh and Layos. Upon Eren's orders, they had participated in the full-
fledged war between the two kingdoms.
Thanks to the Birdcage strategy deployed by Eren during the execution of the Lazarus Project, many of his fiends had managed to successfully survive the war as well as the Great Shattering. In the end, they entered the Immortal Plane one after the other following Eren's footsteps, and a significant number of them managed to meet with their owner.
Eren was surprised to find out that Harja Mel and Darven had not only survived the dangers of the Immortal Plane but also managed to get to him safely during the tumultuous times in Labh Salem. To be honest, he had practically given up on them considering their individual might.
Harja Mel and Darven were the product of Eren's initial attempt to create fiends. As such, they weren't as powerful as the newly turned fiends in his army. Plus, they couldn't increase their individual might due to the fact that their mana cores had either been corrupted or almost destroyed beyond repair.
However, after Darven and Harja Mel came back to him, Eren decided to use them as guinea pigs for his next round of experiments aimed at strengthening his existing fiends.
Eren had a large number of fiends at this point that he could use to his advantage to execute many tasks he didn't want to perform personally. Even excluding the number of Practitioners who had turned themselves into fiends by consuming the concoctions given by the Elder Ichor faction, the number of Practitioners personally turned into fiends by Eren was also massive.
The fiends Eren had personally turned were his direct subordinates, whereas the number of Practitioners turned into fiends with the use of the Tools of Liberation were more of his followers than henchmen.
Eren decided to strengthen these lots of subordinates under him who could be controlled by him. Harja Mel and Darven were the first beneficiaries of the power-ups he had planned for this army of fiends.
Harja Mel and Darven were first given Blessings by Eren using the Blessing Bestowment function he had unlocked earlier. Initially, there were only two templates to choose from—
Expedited Regeneration and Sedated Perception. However, as Eren kept reinvesting his Origin Force Points into the Blessing Bestowment function, he unlocked a few more Blessing Templates.
After successfully testing the Blessing Bestowment Function on Harja Mel and Darven, Eren released the function into the Mesh, enabling the followers of the Elder Ichor faction to avail themselves of the blessings on their own. This time, he didn't charge them with anything and only asked them to donate anything they could afford to donate to the faction as an offering.
The Mesh was sent into an uproar when Eren made Elder Ichor's Blessing available to his faction members. It not only allowed his faction members to regain their trust in the Elder Ichor faction but also deterred many who had been badmouthing the faction as well as its founder.
Most importantly, the Immortals were made to realize how threatening Eren's divinity was. Within just a few years after acquiring the status of a demi-god, the man was able to offer blessings to his followers like a full-fledged Immortal.
What would he do after he was allowed to grow further for only a few centuries?
