The Evil God Beyond the Smartphone

Side Story 2: Divine Power (2)

Since ancient times, humans have worshipped gods.

They were always beings beyond the reach of human cognition, incomprehensible and unfathomable.

The allies of omnipotence and omniscience.

Under their endless power, the great names always received the prayers and praises of humans.

There was only one reason why countless humans always called out the names of gods.

They hoped that the great beings who existed in the heavens would give them the greatest answer.

“…”

And now, that answer was mine.

I slowly scanned the fierce battlefield of Crossbridge, stained with blood.

The god who brought darkness to the continent had fallen, and those who claimed to be the light had hidden in the darkness.

What remained after they disappeared was a land of steel and fire, with a thick smell of blood.

The god of retrogression and coordination who had led everything was gone, but even so, there were still many people left on the battlefield.

Each of the priests burned themselves to the last moment and resisted.

“O Goddess, guide us!”

“Light——!”

They were those who faced the enemy calmly even in the face of death.

They were those who would not bend their faith even if they were broken, snapped, and collapsed.

There were always such people everywhere.

A ray of hope like light.

And the fools who burned brightly by betting everything on that hope.

What they needed was not light.

It was the only darkness that would reign over everything.

-“Ah——.”

With a body that had not yet fully grown, I opened my mouth lightly.

A short syllable echoed in the fierce battlefield.

As soon as my voice was heard, everyone who was wielding swords on the battlefield looked at me.

The emotions that reflected in their eyes were one of two.

Fear. Or awe.

It didn’t matter which one.

Essentially, they were not much different.

“Ah, it’s the evil god…!”

“The evil god… the evil god has descended!”

“Did no one… no one stop the descent of the evil god in the end?”

The priests of the six temples who were surprised to see me opened their eyes wide and uttered a scream-like sigh.

People are afraid of what they cannot understand.

And my appearance in the eyes of humans would be the same.

A god was a being that could not be understood.

And a being that should not be understood.

In that logic, I was able to reign over everyone who was in this place.

-“The light has fallen.”

I opened my mouth and declared the reality.

Divine word.

The divinity in human flesh uttered a short word.

It was the proclamation of the law.

The divine territory that covered the entire Crossbridge changed its appearance and realized the law of the anomaly.

“The sky has changed!”

“What the hell is this…!”

Zzzz-.

The sun collapsed and darkness descended.

The deep shadows that reached up to the waist covered the bodies of the priests.

The weak lives that were breathing roughly also sank under the thick shadows.

-Lograshion.

The sanctuary where the power of destruction spread was the most familiar and free place for my flesh now.

“Eric! Snap out of it!”

“O, O Goddess! Guide us!”

“Holy maiden! Where are you…!”

In the deep shadows covered with black, each voice echoed.

They were all confused and looking around.

Most humans would never encounter in their lives, a miracle that was beyond cognition.

All humans who faced the changing law stared at the unknown spectacle with despair.

I declared the second law to the sighing humans.

-“A black sun will rise.”

As soon as the next word echoed, a black light bloomed in the place where the sun had collapsed.

It was a contradictory shape that was dark and yet shining brightly.

The humans who faced the black sun in the sky raised their heads and uttered a short prayer.

On the blood-stained land soaked in darkness, people were chasing their own light.

Even in the situation where they faced an unbelievable sight, they opened their mouths and shouted the name of God.

“O Goddess… guide us… guide us…”

“Even if darkness descends, the light will rise someday…”

“O Goddess, why do you give us this trial!”

The Goddess did not answer them.

This place was entirely a divine realm that I ruled.

The goddesses who were watching this place from the heavens could no longer interfere with me.

However, even so.

There were always people who tried to take a step forward in the chaos that surrounded them.

-“O Goddess, guide us.”

Clang.

A knight in black armor raised a dark sword and recited a quiet prayer.

He was the knight commander of Crossbridge who survived the battle with the sect.

He pulled out his sword roughly and pointed it at me.

“I am the knight commander, Revels Ederant. I am a servant of the Goddess and a holy knight chosen by the black holy sword.”

-“…”

“On behalf of all the priests of Crossbridge, I will cut down the fallen god.”

Revels Ederant.

The leader of the surviving holy knights spoke to me with his sword pointed at me.

The hero they had hoped for was long gone.

Now he seemed to stand in place of the hero.

A heavy divine word struck Revels.

-“The price of ignorance is not light.”

“If I don’t stand up, no one will.”

He said that and ran towards me with a black sword in his hand.

The sword tilted diagonally pointed at me, and the footsteps that stepped forward pushed away the shadows that rose from the ground.

The sword that advanced through the gray atmosphere.

He tried to stab me with his sword without any hesitation.

“Evil god who disturbs the continent! I will bring you down even if I have to sacrifice my life!”

A word full of determination burst out from Revels’ chest.

However, there was one thing he overlooked.

The fact that I was a different being from him.

Rebelz’s wish was impossible from the start.

“…!”

“Re, Rebelz…!”

Thud-.

Rebelz’s wrist, which was stabbing towards me, was twisted.

The black holy sword, which was cutting through the air with a sharp trajectory, also turned into ashes and collapsed.

Without his sword, Rebelz fell to the ground with his wrist broken.

Splash.

Rebelz, who fell into the sea of shadows, looked up at me with a blank face.

“Why, why…”

It was a simple reason.

This place was my sanctuary.

Only the heroes who received the blessing of the gods were allowed to wield their swords against the owner of the sanctuary.

And Rebelz was not a hero.

He was not even properly given the right to challenge me.

-“The price of ignorance is not light.”

I looked at Rebelz, who was lying on the ground, and spoke to him.

Right after that, many priests who were around grabbed their throats.

They were choking themselves with painful faces.

The ones who were corrupted by the overflowing divinity killed themselves with their own hands.

Some of them, who escaped from the corruption, tore their own throats and sang praises with all their might.

Logration moved by itself and made the priests around sing the ashen hymn.

“For the great… one… for him…!”

“For the great… one… for him…!”

“For the great… one… for him…!”

Many voices spread out, and a wave of fanaticism that disturbed the ears surged.

Some cried and shouted for the god, and some others screamed in fear of the approaching death.

Rebelz, whose wrist was broken, bit his lips with tears of blood.

As time passed, the ones who choked their throats died one by one.

In the sea of shadows where the priests died, Rebelz screamed in agony.

“Aaaa… Aaaaaaaah—-!”

His broken throat let out a loud scream.

Rebelz’s scream, mixed with the sound of metal, flowed out as if he was venting his anger.

But even then, the priests who choked their throats died one by one.

The inquisitor who walked towards Rebelz also died right in front of him.

“Da, captain… please… cough…!”

“Chris…!”

Thump.

The shadow waves spread around the fallen inquisitor.

Rebelz’s eyes trembled violently under the realm of death where many priests met their end.

He must have realized the difference in rank from the spectacle just now.

There was a huge gap between the creatures and the beings beyond that could never be reached.

Rebelz, who saw the fallen priests, let out a rough cry.

“Why… why did it turn out like this…!”

I looked at Rebelz, who was full of despair, and raised one hand slightly.

It was not enough.

I had to engrave my existence into everyone in this place.

To make them never look up at the sky again.

Until the six gods they serve never come to their minds again.

I had to prove the authority of the god to them.

That’s why I decided to revive the ones who killed themselves by choking their necks.

-“Rejoice. I am your order.”

Logic collapses and laws perish.

Logration, which filled the surroundings, was the realm of destruction.

The life and death of all living beings that fell under the power of destruction depended on me.

Without my permission, they could not die or escape from this place as they pleased.

Tick-.

As I flicked my finger briefly, the ones who were lying down revived from death in an instant.

“Puhaa…”

“Huek… hoo…!”

“Wha, what, what just happened…!”

The priests who returned from the brink of death gasped for breath.

They looked at each other with disbelief.

The handprints that tightly squeezed their throats were no longer there.

But the punishment I imposed on them was not over.

I flicked my finger again.

-“Marvel. I am your knowledge.”

The pressure of unbearable information swallowed up many priests.

A massive amount of information that exceeded the human processing limit.

It was obvious what would happen to the humans who received it all at once.

Puke-!

The priests who were standing vomited blood.

Blood streams continued to flow from their eyes and noses.

-“Praise. I am your abundance.”

Once again, I flicked my finger.

Along with my declaration, sprouts sprang up from the bodies of the ones who shed tears of blood.

The stems of plants that grew from human bodies expanded at a fast speed.

At the same time, the priests who were rooted by the plants screamed.

The screams that were mixed without balance created a gloomy atmosphere.

-“Honor. I am your glory.”

Again, I flicked my finger in the air.

Now, the priests who grew plants started to fight each other.

Their swords cut each other’s flesh, and their hands grabbed each other’s throats.

Blood splashed and screams ran rampant in the battlefield where a huge fear spread.

Rebelz’s face, who saw the priests killing each other, became more vicious than before.

The honor that the knights longed for was no longer in this place.

-“Admire. I will control you from now on.”

When I flicked my finger for the last time, watching all this spectacle.

Everything returned to normal.

But the eyes of the priests who looked at me were very different from before.

They looked at me with a deeper fear.

There was no longer any resistance in their hearts.

They had already understood.

The huge doctrine that the god’s flesh, who descended into the world, created.

-“Behold.”

I just enlightened them with that doctrine one by one.

From now on, I am the rule.

I am the flow.

I am the order.

And I am the———.

-“I am your god.”

The god of destruction who controls the fate of people and the world.
