"If Strife said that, I wouldn't be surprised at all. If you think the video feature can't meet departmental needs, you can totally ask Technology to develop new features. As long as you pay a certain price, I'm sure Technology wouldn't be stingy." After the Goddess of Music calmly refuted with one sentence, she changed direction: "Haven't you realized yet? On this Magic Net, there are two types of information most easily noticed—one is knowledge, the other is entertainment. As long as it involves these two elements, it'll definitely attract attention. If we want to compete for faith on here, we must start from these two aspects. I'm just happening to be at the right time and place."
That single insight changed everything.
The gods who'd been unable to find direction originally, the instant they heard the Goddess of Music's words, all showed expressions of sudden realization. It seemed... it really was like that. On this Magic Net, the most popular things were often knowledge and entertainment. The Goddess of Magic was the former, the Goddess of Writing and Goddess of Music were the latter.
But even knowing the core, these gods all had worried expressions. Not every god's divine office had suitable knowledge to share, and not every god's divine office was suitable for entertainment. And even if suitable for entertainment, the identity of deity made it impossible for many of them to do it.
However, among these gods, there were naturally some 'smart gods.' On the surface they looked worried, seemingly like everyone else, but behind the scenes, they already had ideas.
Church of the Hearth.
A whole bunch of high-ranking clerics, top priests, bishops, and popes all gathered together, each with serious expressions, even more serious than during the previous chaos.
"Everyone, share your thoughts!" The Pope of the Hearth looked around, confirming that everyone had already received the god's will, then slowly spoke.
"I think we should start from the food used at noble banquets. Right now, people who can use the Magic Net are nothing more than magicians, nobles, knights, and high-level members of various churches and associations. Excluding churches and association leadership, the remaining people's preferences are basically the same. Banquet delicacies are their memory carriers—highly practical and universal. The key is how we perfectly showcase them."
The moment this bishop's words fell, another bishop let out a disdainful laugh: "Have you looked at Magic Space? There's a 'forum' there specifically discussing how to eat various supernatural creatures. I think making supernatural creatures is key to attracting attention!"
"The God of the Hearth is also the god of the home, guarding the warmth of our families and the art of cooking. How can we do such sensational things?!"
For a moment, several bishops held different views. Everyone seemed to have their own ideas. Who knows if they wanted to show off in front of the god or if they truly loved it that much. The discussion got so heated it felt like they might start fighting.
As for the others, they didn't dare make a sound, just quietly listening. In their view, this was more like several bishops competing for authority.
"Enough! You each just do your own thing, okay? Thank the God of the Hearth at the beginning and end of the video, handle the rest yourselves. Starting today, every seven days, you must post a video... Of course, I won't be an exception either." The Pope seemed really annoyed by the noise. His voice suddenly increased quite a bit, drowning out everyone else's voices.
Not long after, in the Goddess of Magic's divine realm.
Ren looked at the video coming through the Magic Net in his hand. When he heard at the end "That's all the techniques for making roast turkey. If you didn't understand, you can watch it repeatedly. I'll put the text version of the techniques and summary in the comments. Thank the God of the Hearth for bringing us warmth... Finally, thank you all for watching," his expression became a bit strange: "I'd call this the innate... oh wait, innate food blogger holy body."
"Mm. This video is indeed good. It explains all the techniques for making roast turkey. Many details probably even professional chefs don't know." The Goddess of Magic had long gotten used to Ren occasionally saying strange terms and didn't care. She just gave the video a comment.
"The one who posted the video is the Pope of the Church of the Hearth." Ren said with a smile.
"Hmm? The Pope?"
"Yeah, the Pope leading by example. Interesting, right?" Ren didn't spare his praise: "But perhaps precisely because he's the Pope, maybe he often uses this kind of magic or divine art. Whether it's the filming angle, what's left after editing, or even the surrounding lighting—there's been certain adjustments. Though he's still not quite used to our 'video,' the effect shown is still quite good. If full marks is 10 points, I'd give at least 8 points. It's already very close to my ideal state."
Originally Ren was still thinking whether he'd need to release tons of teaching videos in the future to improve quality. He never expected that the first person to post a 'professional' video would perform like this. Then, later people developing, creating, and strengthening based on this—the effect would probably be really good.
This absolutely couldn't be explained away with just 'talent.' Ren thought carefully and attributed it to experience. As the Pope of the Hearth, he might have experienced many similar scenarios before, needing to use magic or divine arts to preserve some scenes to strike opponents and promote faith... But none of that mattered anymore. What mattered was that the video he filmed was truly excellent!
"The God of the Hearth really went all out." The Goddess of Magic couldn't help but say with a smile. "But you seem really focused on food?"
"On this Magic Net, food is destined to become one of the top areas of attention, especially after our Magic Net has more ordinary people in the future." Ren said cheerfully. "Even now, if nothing unexpected happens, the effect will be amazing, though in the short term it can't possibly reach the height of the Fireball teaching video you posted."
The Goddess of Magic was also interested: "Then let me see what level this food video can reach!"
"Oh, this one seems kinda interesting too. Someone from the God of Hunting?" Constantly refreshing the Magic Net, Ren's gaze suddenly paused, clicking open a video.
"Hello everyone, I'm the archbishop of the Church of Hunting, president of the Hunters' Association. Recently, we've been communicating on the Magic Net and discovered many people don't know much about wild beasts and supernatural life in the wilderness, and lack knowledge about wilderness survival, hunting, making emergency food, and such. Starting today, I'll share a wilderness hunting tip every day. Today, I'll introduce you to some of my pets, also my companions hunting the Myriad Mountains—the three-headed dog!" As soon as the video opened, a deep voice came through.
