No country could last forever.
Even the powerful Silver Age and the Arcane Empire were also destroyed. A country could only live for a few hundred years at most, and a god would be unlucky if he died in less than three thousand years.
Søren could never tie himself to the kingdom.
Otherwise, when a country was corrupted, Søren would also be corrupted.
The same was true for Mordor. Søren established the parliament to deal with this situation. Maybe Mordor could maintain its current prosperity for a hundred, two, or three hundred years, but what about five hundred or a thousand years later?
There would be a day when the power class of Mordor would gradually corrupt.
When the system of Mordor became a barrier, and the lower-class civilians began to accumulate resentment and resentment, would Søren also be affected?
He had to return to the kingdom of God.
Therefore, from the moment Søren founded Mordor, he was ready to use an iron fist to completely cleanse the system of Mordor when it was corrupted in the future.
The power class needed to be replaced.
This might be hundreds of years later, but Søren had to be prepared in advance.
When he returned to the kingdom of God, Søren would divide the world to ensure his superiority as a god, and at the same time, when the corruption of Mordor reached the critical point of his tolerance, he would carry out a bloody cleansing process from top to bottom. Not only Mordor, but even the church of the gods was the same.
Why did the gods keep a proper distance from the church?
It was because even if the church did something wrong, it could be blamed on some people inside the church. Any church would inevitably be corrupted, and when this corruption appeared, the gods would eliminate it at the right time.
For example, there used to be a fallen archbishop of the Lord of Light. All the sins he had committed were his own. The Lord of Light, on the other hand, could not see everyone because he was far away in Mountain Paradise. When this cancer was removed, the suffering believers and civilians would only resent the archbishop instead of the Lord of Light, because the Lord of Light would always be great.
This was the power of the gods!
Søren divided the interior of the church, divided the power of Mordor, and arranged the kingdoms on the south coast.
It was all for this.
In the end!
Søren needed to remove himself from these and become a sharp sword hanging over the south coast of Modor City, so that all the ambitious people would not be corrupted quickly, and at the same time, complete [Purification] when necessary.
…
Adele Isabella was a very important key.
In the beginning, as a descendant of Queen Isabella, she was able to help Søren rightfully control some of the lands on the South Coast. But now, because of the impact of the three Avatar Crises, the entire southern region had been seriously damaged. Many lands had been barren and many towns had been destroyed.
Now, there were many ownerless lands.
However, even if it was an ownerless land, it could not be casually occupied. This required a reasonable status.
And Adele Isabella was Søren's rightful wife. The establishment of a kingdom would not be obstructed at this moment. After completing all of this, the Windspear Hills would be able to expand their territory and quickly swallow up the nearby plains, leaping to the size of the Principality of Rossard.
This was beneficial to Søren's future plans, as land was the most important thing for population growth.
"However."
After thinking about it, Søren said to himself, "These still need some royal recognition. Maybe it's time to visit Princess Royal. "
Establishing a kingdom was establishing a kingdom.
Søren was Søren.
As a god, Søren could secretly control the kingdom, but once it was established, even if everyone knew that Søren was secretly controlling everything, they could never put Søren in the position of king on the surface.
That was an act of digging a hole and burying oneself.
Adele Isabella was a suitable candidate. As a fanatic of Søren, she would definitely return to the kingdom of God after death, and this kingdom would be handed over to her to control.
Even if the kingdom was destroyed in the future, Søren's divinity would not be unstable.
But this was still a risky move!
Why did many gods only control a city at most and not a kingdom?
The reason was that the kingdom was too short.
For any god, a few hundred years in a kingdom would pass in the blink of an eye.
The corruption of the noble class would inevitably lead to the collapse of the kingdom. If a god was dragged into this quagmire of karma, the result would be terrible. Even the Goddess of Aristocracy was wise enough to maintain a distance from any kingdom. She only maintained the system of protecting the nobles, but she would not easily approach any kingdom.
"The system must be reconsidered."
Søren looked at the map and pondered. There was a large area drawn on it, which was the land that needed to be occupied in the future. "The aristocratic system is too backward. But without the nobles, the civilization of this era is completely impossible. It will take a long time to popularize it. The best way now should be to separate the nobles' titles from the kingdom's official positions. "
"The feudal system is definitely not possible."
The characteristic of this era was that a certain noble was basically the manager and ruler of a city, but this was not the system Søren needed.
He would appropriately keep the nobles.
But the power of the kingdom must be centralized. What Søren wanted was [centralization], and at the same time, to ensure the appointment and dismissal of any official positions in the kingdom.
He would greatly reduce the nobles' land and remove them from the whirlpool of power. The situation where the nobles were equal to the emperors of the kingdom was absolutely intolerable. For Søren, the steps could not be taken too far. He did not care how long the kingdom could exist, but he cared about how much power the kingdom could have during this time.
Population, land, resources.
Søren needed a large number of believers, and everything was to serve this purpose.
Not only his believers, but also Vivian's, Gloria's, and even Fallen Witch Corinne's. Søren wanted to establish a god system, and a god system was often born within a race. Even if the human population was the largest, there were only so many god systems.
The entire Amazon rainforest could support the belief of the Storm Lord.
Similarly.
Sauron needed a lot of people in order to support his own divine system. Now that Gloria was already a demigod, Vivian was gradually learning to control the belief. When Vivian was fully adapted, she should stand on the stage and expand her believers. Otherwise, the little girl was likely to be reduced to [Lesser Divine Power].
"I should go and see Adele Isabella in a few days."
Søren stood up and murmured, "But now, maybe I should go and divide the wealth of the River Styx."
He had a big plan.
It was a very bold plan. Basically, the gods of the good alignment would never do it. The gods of the evil alignment also needed to carefully consider it because this plan was — [Cut off the River Styx]!
…
(PS: Guess what Søren is going to do with the River Styx?)
