Chapter 650 A shocking progression
The voice of Hades rocked the entire world , but no-one as much as the pope.When the pope touched the feet of the god Hades he thought ' I will only ever accept one God ... Even if my goddess beniogre told me to be accepting towards your relegion , i cannot see you poach away her loyal devouts . The greatest power of them all is life , creating a life is a miracle and preserving one is the ultimate kindness , I'm afraid i can never put you a god of death equal to my goddess'.
The pope never thought that Hades would actually respond to his train of thought but he did.
Reminding that creation and destruction were the Part of the same cycle he actually replied to the pope and reminded him that he was equal to beniogre and his place in this world was equally important.
This was a warning to tell the pope to lay low and wag his tail , as the first time it was a pass by Hades , the second time he would claim the pope's head regardless of the fact that he was the pope of beniogre's relegion should he ever dare to speak so impudently about Hades.
The pope felt chills down his spine as the wrath of a tier 6 god was not something that a mortal could handle . The stern warning was enough for him to swallow all the doubts he had about this upcoming relegion , as with a half depriciating smile he accepted his fate .
Ultimately it was beniogre herself who had agreed to the terms for Hades , hence there must be some high level arrangement between the two that the mortals were not aware about , however the pope was in no position now to defy the rise of the church of death in any form , as he had been schooled by not one but two god's.
Looking at shakuni , the pope wondered if this man would become his counter part someday and lead an enormous faith , as with such a strong primal god as Hades as the relegion's foundation and a dynamic leader like shakuni , it was inevitable to rise quickly.
While Cervantez was also a little surprised to hear the voice of the death God , his reaction was tame compared to Rudra's who could not understand why Hades replied to a foreigner and not his touch.
However he understood that it was a good thing that he did as with the moment being livestreamed the entire world would not realise that the higher power was actually real and the gods were more than just myths and legends that did not tangle with the life of mortals.
The idea that Hades would always watch over his beleivers was a powerful beleif , and Rudra quickly realised that if he played his cards right it could become one of the central beleifs of his relegion and help beleivers to always stay loyal to the death God.
His mind spun wild fantasies about how he could conveniently spin this moment to his favour and being the mastermind schemer that he was he managed to perfectly strike the iron while it was hot.
Looking towards the statue he said " My lord Hades , thankyou for your words of wisdom . I know you hear to the prayers and thoughts of your beleivers , and I'm sure the pope is now enlightened by your kind words ".
Rudra spun the scenario as to the death God actually consoling the pope about his inner demons and helping him regain mental peace as his line ' i know you hear to the prayers and thoughts of your beleivers ' was intended for the billions watching to beleive that Hades listened to all their prayers.
In the end it was successful in creating the dramatic effect that Rudra had been aiming for as the forums simply went ablaze.

" Holy mother of Hades ... Guys did you see that? HADES ACTUALLY SPOKE .... A GOD SPOKE ".
" Are we sure it's not some trick by shakuni to make us all think that Hades spoke when it was actually just a hoax? ".
" OMG guys , i need to enter that church at this moment and beg lord Hades for some super cool necromancy powers .... Im sure he will grant me my wish if i plead with a clear heart ".
" A god with a proof of existence? Where did the aethists run away to? ".
" The gods in Omega are actually living and breathing? Are we norsemen now? ".
" The god of death and the hoax of the century , there is only one artist here , shakuni the puppet master and all of you are his puppets ".
" That ritual is so gory ... I can never harm my delicate hands over it ".
" The ritual is so manly ! Only true men can do it! ".
" An behind the curtain opening is SUS , although the church looks magnificently built and the sword is just breathtaking , i dont think shakuni will ever open it to general public , because the day he does would be the day his lies are exposed! ".

" Are you dumb? Shakuni needs to prove nothing to no-one. He does not need fame or fortune , had it been a nobody who endorsed the church then i would never beleive them , but it's the miracle man shakuni himself.
I only trust in Hades and shakuni , nobody else !
Also look at the people present inside , it's emperor Cervantez and the freaking pope for Hades's sake .... Open your eyes. Those are the two most powerful men on this continent.
With shakuni , make it 3 ! ".
" I agree with the brothers comment above , shakuni is the best! He is the GOAT ".
" If shakuni is so great why does he not open the church to common people? My question is , when will we be allowed to enter ? Once real people enter everything will be clear".
" Let us enter ! Please shakuni , let us enter the magnificent church ! ".
The forums were in a heated discussion about the authenticity of the existance of Hades , but the more the debated the more the publicity was for Rudra as the snowball became larger.
