Otaku Witch
Chapter 887 - 887: 560. Casting the Sun and Waking Up

I actually managed to survive?

Dorothy herself was also a bit surprised and quite puzzled about it.

She had just prepared herself for heroic martyrdom, fully ready to sacrifice herself gloriously, even feeling a bit moved by her own bravery, thinking that dying like this was quite grand and fulfilling.

But now, she didn't end up dying, which was a bit awkward. She felt like all her previous emotions were wasted.

However, she didn't really understand what had happened. She just knew that endless solar fire had surged out of the two-dimensional fragment in her arms, accompanied by light and heat that should have incinerated her instantly.

But in reality, the solar flames did not harm her. The homebody witch not only didn't feel the anticipated pain of being burned alive, but instead found it quite pleasant, like basking in the sun. Her whole body warmed up as if a warm current were flowing through her.

When she opened her eyes that she had previously closed in anticipation of death and curiously examined her situation, she was stunned to find that the warm current inside her body was not her imagination. The seemingly endless solar fire was indeed pouring into her body.

The solar fire, which should have been brutally incinerating everything, became as gentle as a homing bird returning to its nest, or a traveler reuniting with their mother. Its reaction was enthusiastic, to say the least.

The flames that seemed desperate to wreak havoc outside suddenly changed their demeanor, eagerly wrapping around Dorothy and merging with her.

The warm current she felt inside her was actually the solar fire directly integrating into her body.

"No way, do you think my body is something you can just enter at will?"

Startled by the situation, Dorothy reflexively wanted to stop it.

She wasn't sure why the solar fire didn't harm her and even merged with her, which seemed good at first glance. But on second thought, there was just too much solar fire. If all of it wanted to merge with her, who could withstand that?

After all, no matter how you look at it, a person's body can't possibly contain an entire sun.

She would explode and be destroyed.

But, to her dismay, while her mind wanted to stop it, her body had its own ideas and accepted the returning solar fire without hesitation, absorbing as much as it could.

This made Dorothy a bit exasperated.

She furrowed her brow and began to inspect her body, trying to figure out what caused this situation. But soon, her eyebrows relaxed again.

The reason for her body's "integrity" was the Sun God's divinity within her divine blood.

Previously, the homebody witch had made a "grand wish," and somehow ended up acquiring this Sun God divinity.

Initially, this divinity was very weak, but as she began to fulfill her grand wish and hunt down the calamity beasts listed by the Investigation Corps, the weak divinity soon started to grow.

It was as if each calamity beast she hunted became fuel to strengthen her Sun God divinity.

Initially, the divinity was just a small flame, but later it started to take on the true form of the sun.

Not long ago, Dorothy had heavily injured Leviathan, the King of Calamity Beasts, with the Doomsday Requiem Spear and sent the world's consciousness into the Underworld.

At that moment, she felt that the divinity underwent a metamorphosis.

Having completed the entire salvation plan, she had naturally fulfilled her previous grand wish to become the sun that illuminates the end of despair.

Since that moment, Dorothy had become the new Sun God of the Witch World.

However, the power of such an original, natural deity primarily consisted of two aspects: divinity and divine power.

Sufficient divinity would congeal into divinity, representing the deity's position and authority.

But to actually exercise this divine authority, divine power was needed.

After all, like a car needs fuel to run, and witch casting requires consuming magic power, the operation of divine authority also requires divine power.

Divine power mainly comes from two sources.

One is the "salary" of the divinity. Natural deities are seen as employees of the world, so they naturally have salaries.

Depending on the level of the divinity, each deity receives a portion of the world's power as a "dividend" or "salary."

The other source is the much-mentioned "Power of Faith." Deities can gain power from the faith of their followers, converting this faith into their divine power. The more followers and the more devout they are, the stronger the deity's divine power becomes.

Yeah, quite similar to Angels. In fact, the Angel Clan is also a kind of natural deity, only the Heavenly World is naturally a higher-level world, and Angels are much stronger than those primitive deities from another world who haven't yet left their mother world.

And now, Dorothy had her divinity, and in terms of divine power, she wasn't lacking either.

After all, before the Giant Dragon Magical Equipment, she had already evolved an Angel's Ring and a pair of Angel's Wings using the Blood of the Hero as an early template in the first act. Plus, the Church of Machinery had accumulated a lot of faith in her as their great mentor over the past five hundred years.
