Chapter 627 624:Chaos After War
Except for the upper echelons of the society, others were still unaware of the war that took place in the Southern Ocean region.
It was truly a frightening war, though it looked easy due to Alex and Athena's presence, the foot soldiers fought with all their might.
It was a bitter experience for them to fight against the alien army as many of them had never come in contact with Darkness creatures.
What followed the war wasn't peace, but brutal bloodshed all over the world. Alex had mistakenly thought that he had gotten rid of the God of Darkness but after killing Leia for a second time, he knew that things weren't as calm as they were on the surface.
As someone of his status, it can be considered taboo to invade others' privacy as he wouldn't like others except his family members to do so but with things on the line, Alex was forced to cross that line.
With the Goddess's help and Athena, Alex looked into the consciousness of every sentimental living being and the result was truly shocking.
It was so shocking that it almost gave Alex a heart attack.
Almost 2% of living beings were tainted by that piece of shit. However, the power inside them was still inactive without any influence so unless one looked deep into their soul, one couldn't find them.
It was shocking as 2% of the whole population was a big number and with so many ticking time bombs once they left for battle, there wouldn't be anything once they returned.
Somewhere in Arkham, inside an underground ruin, there was an ongoing slaughter.
Blood smeared the walls and a foul disgusting smell occupied every corner of the place.
From one side, a large number of silver armour knights kept on bringing living beings, who won't look like one from any angle.
"Let us go fiend."
"You will be punished in hell."
"God will punish you for doing this to us. Our God won't let you go."A woman with deranged hair screamed at the top of his lungs.
Following many others who borough locked In chains and schemes unruly with a murderous roar but all of them were suppressed and beaten.
"Kill those who try to get rid of us."
"Kill..."
BOOM!
A huge pressure as if a whole mountain was thrown on them crushes them onto the floor.
"Stop watching them and kill. Priests cleanse their souls."
"Yes, Your Grace."
A team of priests joined their hands and began the holy chant to purify the devil in their souls. A bright light enveloped them making them shriek in pain as they felt their soul burning in boiled oil.
Soon a gust of darkness emerged from their bodies after which the knights acted and killed them.
The whole team began, Noah the second Prince of Arkham stared coldly.
"I can't believe this. So many of them were affiliated with God of Darkness. Just how many wisps did God Of Darkness split into?"
"The number might be too much. Just 1% of his soul is enough to cover a hundred thousand people. It's a sinister move."
Noah stared at the old man beside him with an inexplicable gaze. He was the protector of the Royal family and also an ancestor of 400 years old.
"The realms of God are too profound and mystic," Noah spoke with a worried expression.
Previously, it was Mythic ranks who fought around in the world openly but with things becoming chaotic, even Overlords are nothing but pigs to slaughter.
From the human side, only Kinely had protectors from the God stage due to Emperor Kevin's help. Now with Alex supplying resources and means, everyone who was stuck in the Overlord or Demigod realm advanced to God's realm.
However, instead of relief, it brought huge pressure on everyone's shoulders as only those who stepped into God's realm knew the true horror of gods.
Each advancement in minor realms brought many significant changes.
"Now, I know why Alex hates this guy so much. Even I want to kill this disgusting piece of shit."
After he got the information and moved his troops to kill, he found that many cults had popped out of nowhere and started worshipping a Primordial God, The Creator of the World.
"!This is a mess. I hope I can finish dealing with these fanatics as soon as possible."
Noah sighed heavily while doing his task of overseeing things.
Scenes similar to this were happening all around the world.
Except for the Eleven tribe whose trouble had been erased by Alex and the Dragon race who stayed elusive to the world, hiding in their plane, all other places were suffering from fanatics and heretics.
In Harold, the situation was worse compared to others.
Avalon sitting on the throne emanated a ferocious aura making everyone shiver in fright.
The entire hall had frozen witnessing the Emperor who looked as if he might go on a frenzy killing spree any moment from now.
Looking at everyone's faces, he spoke in a cold hoarse voice.
"Did I give too much peace that my Empire had turned out like this?"
"Why are so many people affected and when did this happen?"
"Your Majesty, please pardon me for saying this but I think it is because we haven't had turmoil since a decade ago. Kinley and Arkham had gone through a round of war and killing which had brought a disastrous effect and many many people who were killed at the top level seemed to have been controlled by the God of Darkness. Even a recent rebellion was caused by the God of Darkness pulling strings from behind."
The Prime Minister of Harold spoke respectfully.
"Still, isn't it too much? Out of every 1000 people we have 10 people affiliated with this."
"Your Majesty, the number shouldn't be high. All of these are because of those damn cults. As you know many hidden cults play around but who knows most of these cults worship the God of Darkness under various names and brainwash people under various schemes and favours."
Avalon massaged his forehead hearing this. Knowing about the calamity, just like Kevin he had been preserving things however he was still strict in controlling the administration. And cults and groups like these were child's play in his eyes but who knew there was such a sinister plan behind all this?
Avalon's eyes glowed with a murderous glint and he hit the armrest creating a loud shockwave.
"Issue the killing order no matter what, kill every single member of these cults. It seems people had forgotten how I washed the capital in blood when I took the throne."
"Deploy the troops and also send experts. We can't take this lightly. There may be a hidden powerhouse who might have gained power from the God of Darkness. I will ask God's realm powerhouse to oversee the whole operation so that we don't have a significant loss."
"And make sure to keep the casualties as minimal as possible. We can't afford a huge loss at this moment so kill using everything."
Avalon relayed a set of orders with a furious expression. The Courtiers witnessing this felt the entire Empire of Harold might be bathed in blood in the upcoming days.
