"Excellent! My first B-Class devotee is about to be born—what a day of joyous events!"
Owen was thrilled. After all, B-Class devotees were exceedingly rare.
How many miracles had he displayed? How many times had he shocked the villagers of Annasi?
Yet, even after all that, no B-Class devotee had emerged. This alone proved the sheer value of a B-Class devotee!
It wasn't simply about devout faith.
If lower-class devotees could steadily ascend as long as they were pious enough, then B-Class devotees required an absolute purity of soul, utterly devoid of doubt. They were the true zealots of a god—a warrior priesthood of unwavering loyalty!
Granting a B-Class devotee the position of Vassal God would even halve the order fragment cost, requiring only a portion of order to help them forge a godmark-like divinity.
This was why B-Class devotees were far more valuable than C-Class and those beneath them.
