Although Lord Bern always wanted to meet this Death God again, the Death God never appeared again.
Even though the Death God never sought him out, his commands were unceasing.
Lord Bern did not regret becoming enslaved, for he had tasted the sweetness of it.
His lifespan was extended, nearing ninety, which on the Yowein Continent was considered a ripe old age.
The Death God did not deceive him; as long as he collected Spirit Cores for the Death God, he could experience the power of eternal life.
He prayed daily—not for blessings, but for commands from the Death God.
Once those commands were transmitted from that Spirit Core, he would know what to do, and those Adventurers with Class he recruited always bowed to the Gold coins, the strength of the mercenaries always brought him significant profits.
He wasn't particularly shrewd, just resourceful, and everything was commanded by the Spirit Core.
