Starting from Scratch as an Evil God

In this world where theology and science coexist, the powerful worship the Four Ancient Gods, becoming their chosen ones and gaining supernatural powers. The common people and countless slaves serve as fuel for their growth.

Even with so many religious beliefs, the powerful will never tolerate the existence of other sects, much less the birth of an evil god.

Luo Jia, an unlucky fellow who somehow came here from Blue Star and inherited the divinity of an evil god, looked at his entire worldly wealth: a single tattered book. He felt so down he could use a smoke.

So this is really a book from the start, with the whole story made up as I go?

After studying it carefully, Luo Jia realized things weren't quite at hell difficulty. Pride, envy, wrath, sloth, greed, gluttony, lust, and every other negative emotion could all become his nourishment, as long as he had enough followers.

So the new evil god, steeped in Marxist thought, began building a following in the name of the Lord of Infinity.

From then on came the common people and slaves, who had also gained supernatural powers, fighting back for their independence; political struggles among the powerful; and doctrinal disputes and civil wars within the ancient god religions…

Eventually, it all ignited a great war between the followers of the ancient gods and the followers of the evil god.

"The decaying empire will eventually turn to ashes beneath the setting sun. The Lord of Infinity is the true divine kingdom of our dreams."

"Descend, my Lord!"

"You Si Mi Jiahe!"

Luo Jia: …What should I do about my followers being so chuunibyou?
