At this time, quite a few believers were still suffering from the backlash, but He Chen, who had finished his trip and was now free, really didn't have much interest in helping to solve the backlash problem.

After all, following the previous police raids and the revelation that the church associated with the "God of the Washroom" was an unregistered, unaffiliated church, the lack of official endorsement had become quite evident.

As the news continued to spread, a large number of new believers gained from the previous activities lost their faith, and He Chen's already lack of motivation continued to decline.

"Let those whose faith has strayed to the level of mere believers suffer the consequences. I don't care how much it costs."

"There are no shallow believers... e, no ones close to true believers. I won't deal with any of the backlash; I'll let them all fall!"

"Believers gathered solely through rewards are indeed unreliable."

He Chen lay in the air, head forward, watching the anime on the screen in a Superman flying posture, while muttering to himself.

The believers who were proselytized during the lottery event were arguably the best group of believers He Chen had ever treated.

The other believers were either tricked into joining by empty promises or were beaten and forced to preach; the Yakuza of the East Field Group fared even worse, suffering pain, diarrhea, and constant fear, and even losing a leader.

The benefits they gained from their faith in the gods were either zero or even negative, which was incredibly tragic.

Only this time, only these believers who worshipped He Chen during the event were able to earn money directly while worshipping the deity.

If you're lucky, you can earn tens or hundreds of thousands of yen just by believing in a god; you could say you've made a fortune.

However, it is precisely among them that the proportion of general believers is the largest, and even the degree of reverence and love for God is the smallest.

At present, it is actually the Higashida group's followers who have the strongest faith.

Simple rewards versus simple punishments – punishment is often more effective!

Look at the believers in his mind who made them win the lottery, what were they praying for?

"You actually believe in that 'God of the Bathroom' thing? No way, no way, it's obviously fake! Can't you tell?"

"Gods? Hey, it's just a trick by that shop owner, a scam! I saw the guy from the shop next door go scratch it up, right? Tell him about it!"

'Hahaha, yeah, it's definitely a fake god! Even if I curse Him, what can He do? The "God of the Bathroom" is an idiot, a...'

......

These contents were not specifically prayed to him by the believers; they simply involved deities, so they were automatically transmitted to He Chen in the form of prayer.

Having become much stronger, He Chen was able to clearly hear the content of the "prayer" of these most basic believers. Therefore, He Chen could hear all these words about him clearly.

This negative content constitutes a significant portion of the prayers offered by believers in the lottery.

Of course, this does not mean that most new believers despise him, but rather that the vast majority of new believers have simply forgotten about him. Only those gossipy women or idiots who make fun of him keep mentioning his divine name.

"He's really... gone dark!"

He Chen selected those believers who deliberately slandered him and spread the idea that he was a false god, and then decisively bestowed the newly acquired [Excretion Curse] upon them all.

And the effect of this curse is...

Let them turn evil!

Dare to criticize He Chen? Do you still remember the turbidity effect of the [Excretion Curse]?

He Chen directly controlled the turbidity effect to make the cursed object's skin turn unevenly black.

Especially on the face, not only will the skin become unevenly tanned, but it will also show an X-shaped mark overall.

This isn't just about external blackening; it affects their metabolism, preventing the complete elimination of toxins from their bodies.

In other words, this kind of blackness can't be washed off no matter how you wash it!

Don't you like to criticize others? Then let them become truly evil!

Perfect timing, it also lets He Chen see the effects of this new curse.

Of course, this is only directed at those who simply spread rumors and slander him. As for the few who also call him a liar...

"Let's use this punishment!"

He Chen selected a set of punishments from the combinations he had thought of in his spare time and applied them to them.

The specific content is as follows:

By disrupting the "divine inclinations," numerous minor wounds are created in their mouths, esophagus, and drainage pipes, causing them extreme pain every day, whether entering or leaving the body.

Then, coupled with a curse that simply increases the frequency of their trips to the toilet, it will make them so that no matter which mouth they use, they will be in so much pain that they dare not insult He Chen anymore!

At the same time, He Chen also cast the curse of turning them black on them.

Of the more than 1,000 new believers, 68 met the first criterion for punishment, while 9 met the second criterion.

With a thought, He Chen immediately sent out a batch of punishments along the unbreakable thread of faith that the believers could never sever.

From this moment on, these 77 people will begin to gradually turn black!

"Hey, the opposite of turning black is turning not black, so does that mean it's also possible to turn pink?"

"Can the 'Enjoy Toilets' blessing restore the color of certain areas?"

An idea popped into He Chen's mind.

However, based on my experience, the current blessing can effectively whiten the entire body and even affect specific areas, but it's basically impossible to change the color of a very small, specific spot.

Just then:

"Squeak~"

"My Lord God, I've finished my bath!"

As the door opened, the fresh-faced Anzu Matsuori walked out of the bathroom, drying her hair.

He Chen's thoughts were still lingering on what he had been thinking, and his eyes involuntarily drifted downwards. Fortunately, he noticed in time and corrected his gaze.

"Ahem, little believer, you look much more refreshed after your bath!"

"Yes, that's right!"

After taking a bath in He Chen's divine realm, Anzu Matsuori was as refreshed as if she had had a good night's sleep:

"My God, after I finish drying my hair, I'll head off to register for church!"

Chapter 151 The Little Believer Ascends the Throne as Pope

To be honest, since it's a world without any other gods, the entire process, from the young believer to receiving the number and registering, went without any unexpected incidents.

He Chen, who had been secretly following along, watched the whole thing and felt that it was just like going to the relevant department to reissue a certificate; there was nothing interesting or difficult about it.

In just a few minutes, the information was filled out and submitted.

"Okay, your submission has been confirmed. The result should be provided within approximately seven business days, at which time you can..."

The response time is a very bureaucratic seven working days. However, according to what I found online, as long as the content complies with the procedures, approval is inevitable.

In other words, in just a few days, the "God of the Bathroom" will be legal!

Anzu Matsuori was overjoyed to have finally completed the important task she had previously overlooked.

She's still young. The gods have tricked her so many times, and she only felt guilty once when she accidentally tricked one of them. Her mental fortitude clearly has a lot of room for improvement.

"crunch~"

"I'm back!"

"Clap!"

As soon as the door opened and shoes were removed, Xingnan Songzhi rushed over to He Chen's side to report the situation.

A few days later, the worship of the "God of the Washroom" will no longer be a child's game, but will truly become a state-recognized religious church!

"The church..."

Before registering, He Chen had no idea about churches or anything like that, but now that he's registered, he's actually considering starting a church since he's already here.

This idea didn't come to mind casually.

In the beginning, when he had only one or a few dozen believers, there was definitely no need for a church or anything like that.

After all, it wouldn't take He Chen long to go through all the believers himself. Rather than forming a church and doing all that, it would be better for him, as a god, to do it personally.

However, after He Chen “didn’t know why he was able to successfully proselytize multiple times despite all the mess he was causing,” his followers have not only increased in number but have also become quite chaotic.

This confusion refers to the confusion regarding the understanding of the divine.

To put it another way, if a few people who are all believers of He Chen—no, all true believers of He Chen—get together and talk about their faith, without mentioning the name of the deity, no one would think that they worship the same god.

Even after revealing the god's name, they might fight each other over the title of "God of the Washroom" for their own deity!

Let's take a closer look at He Chen's followers:

A portion of the group consists of students who believe the deity is the god of luck and learning.

A group of delinquent girls believed that the gods were war gods and destruction gods (gods who break sticks);

A group of people believe that gods bully people everywhere, beat people for no reason, and coerce believers to film shameful videos every day.

One group believes that the deity is a goddess who controls bathing and can make people younger, more energetic, and more beautiful through bathing; this group consists of women in bathhouses.

Then there are those customers who believe that gods control luck and that this makes them luckier in lotteries and card games;

And those Yakuza who believe in their hearts that the gods are in charge of spraying, but are forced to say that the gods are in charge of good fortune.

Although He Chen is only one god, in the eyes of different believers, he is practically six gods.

He Chen, who believes that one god is stronger than six, feels as if he has maliciously created a mosquito repellent [divine bias].

I hadn’t thought about it carefully before, but now that I think about it, wow... his followers are really too disorganized!

"It seems that it is indeed necessary to set up a church and change the believers' perceptions."

For example, the newly released and incredibly useful "Divine Blessing" skill, which allows you to "take responsibility for your own actions," is a must-use, and you should definitely spread the word about the "God of the Bathroom's" ability to bring good fortune!

As for the structure and preparation of the church...

He pondered for a moment, then solemnly floated to Anzu Matsuori's side, who was studying, and said to her:

"Little believer, do you remember what I told you when I first came into this world? I said I would make you my Pope!"

"Now that the church has been established, and you even personally registered it, it's time to pack up and ascend to the throne!"
