"Go on old friend… answer the kid's question" Demos sneered.

"Just wait… I'll get a chance to settle this in the future…" Samael replied.

"No, you won't" Demos snarled in response.

Cyrus, Kaido, and Derik were left confused by the short conversation between the two. Even though Derik could perceive negative emotions of those around him, he couldn't feel that of Samael, just like Cyrus couldn't draw power from Samael's life force. At this moment, the realized that the difference between them and these two archangels is something that will take them centuries to cross if they choose to use the normal methods.

"So?" Derik really didn't care about what they were bickering about. All he wanted to know is how to utilize the power of faith.

Ever since he saw how fast Samael regain a large portion of his strength, stepping into the demigod realm in just two decades or so and has attributed his rapid growth to want he called the power of faith, Derik's undivided attention was caught. If he could harness this same power, he should be able to grow at a more astonishing rate and get enough power to protect everyone he loves.

"Hmph…. The power of faith is quite simple… when you have those who visualize you as a god, loyal followers, and people who will pray to you in their times of need... Of course, this method is slower than normal cultivation methods but then the more followers you have the easier it becomes for you amass power and improve your realm" Samael grumpily explained, leaving Derik and Samael stunned.

"Both of you utilize the power of faith yet you don't know? Dumb kids" Samael cursed.

"We do? When?" Cyrus was stunned and left confused by Samael's claim. He shot Derik a glance but the youth shook his head in reply, indicating he didn't know what Samael was talking about.

"You all could easily tell when members of your little group needed you the most… do you think it's your sixth sense?" Samael covered his face with his palm, wondering how these two who were meant to be the strongest on their continent be so clueless. He was forced to blame Demos and Michael for their ignorance.

In reality, what Derik and Cyrus wrote off as a sixth sense was actually something more. The ability to hear the cries and prayers of loyal servants and followers is an ability reserved for gods only. The visions Derik and Cyrus saw were not hallucinations as they thought, they were actually watching the battle take place from the eyes of one of their followers.

"You heard their cries and even witnessed how they died from their own eyes… and even at their moment of death, the only ones they thought to call out to were the two of you… and you heard them… do you think its something any mortal can do?" Samael shot Derik a glance while he explained.

"At your current level, the bond between you all and your followers has become strong enough the just your presence strengthens them… Thanks to your interference, your core members acquired a temporary boost in strength which allowed them to face off against Francis and Diana while not falling into a disadvantaged position… so yes… You do use the power of faith" Demos confirmed Samael's words

"Then how come we don't grow as fast as you? Why haven't we entered the demigod realm?" Derik after giving his words son thought.

"Yes… if we have been using this same method why haven't we reached the demigod realm yet?" Cyrus asked

Hearing them, Samael and Demos laughed their hearts out, wondering what have these kids to call the demigod realm so easily as if it were any other realm.

"Damn it… How can you all have the guts to mention the demigod realm like its child's play. Anyway… while Samael is simply recovering what he lost, making it simpler… not to mention the fact that he has a whole continent that dedicates their life to pleasing and serving him… Do you really think you can compare?" Demos laughed.

"Exactly… I have millions of loyal followers while you barely have up to thirty thousand… even then I'm recovering what I already have… its much easier than acquiring something new… you are millions of followers away from rising this fast kid… I suggest you forgo the thoughts of improving your image in your continent and acquiring new followers… after your sects slaughtered over three hundred thousand brave soldiers of the empire and destroyed all the prominent noble families of the same empire… hehehe… I believe its safe to say you and Cyrus are the most hated people in the history of that continent" Samael chuckled.

Upon hearing this Derik and Cyrus' facial expression crumbled, turning them as pale as ghosts. For a moment they almost regretted their actions but when they thought about it all, they realized they would still do the same if given another chance. That's just the type of person they are.
