Chapter 15 Sins!(2)
"No! You've been gone for just some hundred years based on the time here. It's been just 9 some hours!" Shyra retorted.
"No. I went to the Mysterious Abyss." Matthias replied.
"Did you just say The Mysterious Abyss?! THE Mysterious Abyss?" Her eyes bulged when she heard the place.
"Why? You've been there?" Matthias curiously asked.
"No. That place is notorious. It is said it is filled with demons from all sorts of worlds. How did you even get there?" Shyra asked incredulously. 𝙛𝘳𝒆𝒆𝒘e𝗯n𝗼𝘷𝚎𝚕.𝒄૦𝓶
"Eh. Someone found a rift going to my hell and entered it. I enslaved the demon then entered that place. I learned some things and became a Demon Prince." Matthias calmly replied, but it brought an even more shock to the girl.
"What the. A rift formed inside your space? I'll fix that up for you. Wow, these laws sure are sturdy. But you became a Demon Prince?! What the heck did you do?!" Shyra wanted to fix the space first but found out that the laws were updated and it was solid. But she remembered the other thing that he said and was dumbfounded.
"It's a long story. But what happened here?" Matthias waved his hand to dismiss the topic and returned to ask what happened to the world.
"Here's the thing, Master." Shyra started to tell what happened.
When the war between the Orcs and the Human-Elf Coalition ended, The Divine Church was attacked with insults because of the huge casualties. The people said that the Divinity did not protect them and that the god is a fake.
Some took advantage of the conflict and established a new Church called the New World Religion.
They said that the god of the Divine Church was weak and that the world needs itself to lead. They said that the world gave them the authority to become his representative.
Nobles supported the new religion and suppressed the old Divine Church. Some commoners were also resentful with the Divinity as they thought that He didn't protect them and that the god does not exist, but the world does, so, they believed in the New World Religion.
The Divine Church was treated as a heretic church that believed in false gods. Some stood loyal to the Divine Church and hid with it. 𝑓𝔯𝑒e𝘸e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕.c૦𝙢
Years passed, and the Divine Church was destroyed by the New World. Only remnants existed that prayed to the Divinity.
The elves were also treated as heretics as they do not believe in the world and, instead, they only believed in the Tree of Life.
They tried to chop off the Tree of Life, but failed. So, they just burned it down. Although it was slow, the Tree of Life became charred after a year.
That year, the nights were bright because of the burning tree. The sky seemed to be angry as drought ravaged all the lands.
Wars between kingdoms sent the people into despair. Contention for resources was apparent. Although the world was filled with Primordial Energy, humans forgot how to utilize the energy to cultivate and resorted to technological advancements with gas and coal as catalysts, polluting the atmosphere.
They polluted the seas, and started the conquest of the Orcish continent.
They were defeated by the orcs and instead started bombing them, ruining their land and killing and wounding the orcs greatly.
The cunningness of humankind was slowly destroying the world.
When she finished, Matthias was utterly mad. "How dare they! I gave them lush lands, a good life, and I even warned them against the orcs, then they're going to blame me when they didn't try to cultivate properly?! Hah. I guess I'll need to purge these useless beings out of my main world!" Matthias yelled angrily.
"Okay, since they're still my creation, then I'll just kick them out of my world! System, Create a New World!" Matthias yelled.
"You don't have to create a new world. I sensed that you have a World Tree Seed in you." Shyra interrupted.
"Yes, how could that help me kick these bastards out?" Matthias breathed in and out to calm himself.
"Plant the World Tree Seed. It will upgrade your world into a plane, a higher form of a world. It is flat and expands more easily than a planet-type world. The price you need to pay is to halve the population of your world."
"The World Tree will give birth to worlds with downgraded laws and sparser energy. You could kick those people there. The Realm Tree could also give birth to random beasts that could be bought by a Universal God." Shyra ended.
"Wow, Purge huh. I'm okay about that. I'll kick them to hell!" Matthias laughed coldly.
He descended the world and planted the seed in the middle of the ocean. He then flew up high and flew towards the Tree of Life.
At night, He placed his hand on it and sent orders to all the existing elves.
He also sent a message to the remnants of the Divine Church.
"Hide. Protect yourselves. Judgment upon the sinful humankind shall be exacted."
Throughout the continent, elves were alarmed by the sudden warning from their Tree of Life. They knew it wasn't the Tree of Life, so they thought about the other person who could access the Tree of Life; The Creator!
They started to hide and prepare themselves.
The next morning, the sun didn't shine. Clouds were covering the entire sky, which was odd for the humans. But for the Elves, they were overjoyed because they know that Judgement Day is already happening.
They hid and prayed to the Creator. All of them prayed from their respective homes and underground hiding spots.
It was a gloomy day, but suddenly..
Wuuuu!!
