Chapter 1054: Chapter 618: Goddess of Strategy’s Ascension

As she spoke each word, her body became increasingly luminous, a flame invisible from the inside out began to burn, countless invisible forces converged from all directions upon her body, serving as the best catalyst for the unseen flame, with a booming sound, it turned from a small flame into a fire that scorched the heavens. Yet, nobody felt the heat, only a divine presence and a deep-sea-like wisdom, brewing with countless plans and schemes, hiding innumerable secrets of this world.

This was the Divine Fire, ignited by faith, without enough people believing her capable of handling the divine duties of strategy, planning, and tactics, this fire could not be kindled, and without this, there would be no standing to continue in the Divine Enthronement.

The voice of Lady Strategy came again from within her fiercely burning divine body.

"Forget about the apparent strength comparison, he who employs the best plans, strategies, and tactics shall win the war. Any fool can achieve victory by luck, but only a master strategist can ensure victory and maintain it, this is strategy."

These were undoubtedly the words of Gaven he had cited earlier, only this time, the quote came after the Goddess of Strategy spoke them, branding them as the core essence of coalescing the Godhood of Strategy, offering a bizarre sensation.

A dazzling light, too brilliant for mortal eyes, began to solidify at the core of Lady Strategy.

At this moment, the whole world seemed to stand still, everyone stared dumbfounded at this scene, unable to discern the shape of things within the center of the light, yet still unable to look away, for even the goblins knew what it was.

Godhood.

The Godhood of Strategy.

This was what countless lives dreamed of, the very essence of a god, according to legend. Should one acquire even a fragment of godhood, by consuming and assimilating it, one might earn the right to join the ranks of the gods as a new deity.

Only ignorant fools would believe this legend, a Quasi-god faced innumerable difficulties in coalescing godhood, needing enough followers to support and possibly join the ranks of the gods.

How could one step into the ranks of the gods with just a fragment of godhood?

More likely, the Soul Consciousness would be assimilated by the fragment of godhood, becoming a sacred vessel to protect it until it could find its true belonging.

"War is composed of a series of battles; losing one battle does not mean losing the war. Identify the enemy’s weaknesses, recognize your vulnerabilities, avoid their strengths, and leverage your advantages. Only by using your strengths against their weaknesses can victory be assured. This is tactics."

Immediately afterwards, she embedded the second segment of her divine position into her own Godhood.

"Prepare for peace in times of war and for war in times of peace, find the enemy’s enemy as your ally, and be ready to compromise. Life is a series of minor conflicts with occasional prepared outbreaks. Be prepared, and have an emergency plan ready. This is planning."

Then came the third piece, and the three would complement each other, constituting her Path of War, her Godhood.

Just as her radiance reached its peak, a tremendous outcry burst from the crowd.

"Lady, be careful."

"Your Highness, there’s an assassin."

"Behind you, watch your back."

Behind the Goddess of Strategy, a gaunt male figure silently emerged, his exact features unclear, but the onlookers noticed only his blazing black eyes and ashen-white skin, and that crazed smile not even the mist could obscure. A rose-hued longsword was silently thrusting toward the core of the Red Knight’s still-shaping Godhood.

These warnings were of no use, for it seemed Lady Strategy was condensing her Godhood before their eyes, but in truth, her real body wasn’t there at all. From the start to the end, they had seen only a refracting illusion, even the scene of her being stabbed.

And Lady Strategy, as if completely unaware or, more accurately, even if aware, powerless because this was the critical moment of her Godhood coalescence, unable to afford a response.

No, more precisely, even in her prime, she couldn’t have dodged this sword, because the difference in strength between them was too great.

The assailant was not just a True God but a powerful one. He had many names and titles—Prince of Lies, Mad Prince, Dark Sun, Black Sun, God of Madness, and Lord of the Three Crowns—but most commonly he was known as God of Conspiracy and God of Strife, Hesrick, the number one madman of the Felen Continent, acting without any reason, just as he pleased. However, this time it wasn’t indiscriminate; he had chosen his moment when the Goddess of Strategy’s Godhood was almost fully coalesced, indicating he was spying on her Godhood of Strategy, Planning, and Tactics, not wanting these to fall into other hands, primarily because of his numerous schemes and plans he did not wish to be known.

"Roar!" A terrifying roar shook heaven and earth, everyone feeling profound rage.

A massive blood-colored battle axe suddenly appeared out of nowhere, blocking in front of Hesrick’s Divine Calamity Sword, thwarting the Prince of Lies’ certain-strike. At that moment, a huge human figure clad in battered, blood-stained armor and wearing a war helmet appeared beside Lady Strategy.
