novelGods Punishment to the Sacred Empire
| ← Ch.559 | Ch.561 → |
Except for Tofesh and his father, no one else related the name Yale said with Yale's Kingdom.
Not even the Sacred Empire thought that the reason for the descent of a Great god was that they planned to destroy that tiny country.
Tofesh knew from the start about Yale being Wyba's brother, and his father had learned that when Tofesh investigated Yale in the past.
"This... This Great God Yale is your friend. How did he become so powerful since the last time he appeared?"
The king of the Otref Kingdom was giving thanks that his son had such a best friend.
It was like Tofesh said, there wasn't any danger for their country.
Moreover, since they were allies with Yale's Kingdom, it was like having a Great God as an ally, which would scare other countries.
The alliance was just offered to protect the country of Tofesh's friend, and the king never thought that it could benefit his kingdom, but since his son only had one friend, he agreed to let Tofesh help that country.
Yale continued to speak without caring about the effect that his words could have on all the countries of the world.
"First of all. Fools that surrounded my country and planned to erase the existence of my sister and all the citizens living there!"
Yale's voice was oppressive to the point that the time around those surrounding the city literally froze in time.
He didn't plan to let them use the time he spoke to attack the city.
"You aren't suited for my God's Punishment. Thus, die and turn into food for my sword."
Yale had already decided his God's Punishment, but it was inconvenient having affected people surrounding that city given the nature of the punishment, so he directly turned them into food for Lar.
The bodies of the army disintegrated, and their souls were teleported to Yale's place where Lar devoured them.
With so many souls, Yale believed that Lar should be able to reach ninth level immortal after digesting all of them.
At that moment, everyone observing that knew about the existence of Yale's Kingdom, noticed that the tiny kingdom that was spared due to the Otref Kingdom protecting them.
All the countries with intentions of conquering Yale's Kingdom before the Otref Kingdom stepped out to protect them gave thanks that they decided to forget the intentions of conquering it.
The fury of a Great God whose family had been in danger of death wasn't something they could endure.
They believed that if they attacked, they would have ended up like those soldiers, disintegrated with their souls devoured, and they still didn't know what kind of God's Punishment would be applied to those that weren't there.
Although none of the ten strongest were surrounding the city, there were several ninth level immortals there, and they had been killed instantly, which was enough to scare everyone.
At the same time, they were all jealous of the Otref Kingdom for securing such a powerful ally by supporting a weak country when it needed it the most.
The ten strongest of the Sacred Empire were angry after they noticed that the army sent to surround the city was turned into food for a sword.
They believed to be at the very top of the food chain, but they ended up being eaten by a sword, which they didn't consider even as a living thing despite having developed a spirit.
"We also have a member of the Council of Gods backing us! Retreat now, or you will be the one to suffer."
The ugly old man shouted with confidence, thinking that he would seem imposing, but everyone outside the Sacred Empire just thought that he was a clown.
Leaving aside if that support of a member of the Council of Gods was true or not, just speaking like that to a member of a Council of Gods was enough to give him a reason to kill them, disregarding any other member that could be implied.
Moreover, those with knowledge knew that it wasn't like if the Council of Gods always agreed on everything, but conflicts among people of such a level weren't things they were qualified to meddle in.
If someone kneeled and apologized while mentioning their backup, it wasn't impossible that a Great God decided to spare them even if it was just for the sake of preventing a conflict with another member of the Council of Gods, but threatening such a powerful person was akin to suicide.
Anyway, Yale wouldn't spare them no matter how polite they were, but from the onlooker's view, the Sacred Empire set their fates at the moment they dared to threaten Yale.
Since the day that the Goddess started to support them, the ugly man believed to be unbeatable no matter who appeared.
It was also thanks to the help of that Goddess that they always appeared timely to frustrate Yale's plans, but that was on other timelines. The Goddess didn't dare to appear when the Sacred Kingdom was facing a Great God, and even less when that Great God was a member of the Council of Gods.
After all, the truth was that she didn't have any relationship with the Council of Gods on that timeline. Thus, she wouldn't help the Sacred Empire to face a real member of the Council of Gods.
"Threatening me? You really are tired of living. I don't care if you have a backer or not, none of you won't be forgiven today."
Yale's words were that everyone except the Sacred Empire expected.
"You... You don't know who you are facing!"
The ugly man was angry, but he could only speak threats again.
"Oh, I know. You are the criminal who developed the Existence Eraser Bomb. An object capable of erasing the existence of everyone in a city. You must be punished together with your Empire for developing something like that. A weapon that even mortals can use to erase existences shouldn't exist from the start and even less a mass erasing weapon like that."
It was true that the Council of Gods didn't like Existence Eraser, but since there were members giving them to their families to protection, they still allowed it.
However, they wouldn't allow something like the Existence Eraser Bomb to exist.
If Yale weren't punishing them that day, it would just be a matter of time before someone else did it, but a lot of people would have disappeared at that point.
"Thus, from now on, this object isn't allowed to exist in this universe."
The Existence Eraser Bomb on its way to Yale's Kingdom disappeared at the same moment that Yale spoke.
Several members of the Council of Gods were seeing God's Punishment since it was one of their hobbies if they didn't have anything better to do.
They also noticed about the Existence Eraser Bomb and proceeded to forbid the existence of anything like that on their universes.
Just the fact that the Sacred Empire created the Existence Eraser Bomb was enough to punish them.
There was a rule that implied destroying the balance of the multiverse and a weapon like that could do that easily if it was spread.
Of course, in the eyes of the Sacred Empire, it was a way to turn all the universe into beautiful ones without undesired existences. As for the smuggles Goddess, she just considered it a good business and never thought about the implications it had since she had been careful to make it impossible to notice her relationship with the Sacred Empire.
However, that she considered it impossible didn't mean that it was truly impossible, but Yale only had that power temporally, so he wouldn't waste time looking for that Goddess that he didn't know in which universe was.
"Now, I will announce the God's Punishment."
Once Yale spoke, the whole universe was silent. Most of them never experienced something like that, so they were seeing it with curiosity.
On the other hand, those who had seen it before didn't dare to make any noise for fear that the Great God would redirect part of the God's Punishment to them.
"From now on, the Sacred Empire and everyone allied with them have lost the right to exist as beings with intelligence. Your territory and bodies will remain forever turned into Eternal Ice while your souls would be eternally reincarnated as mindless monsters that would only be able to live in that area. However, your consciousness would be separated from your souls and fused with the ice, forcing you to observe it until your consciousness broke. Of course, I will let your consciousness suffer all the pain your monster incarnations suffered."
As Yale spoke, the whole Sacred Empire was frozen, or more exactly everything turned into ice, but it was a type of ice that only Yale and Great God Kroh would be able to break thanks to its powerful time power.
However, even if the ice melted, nothing would remain since all the matter on the area turned into ice.
There wasn't any time to reply to Yale's words because the effect of God's Punishment was instantaneous.
Killing them would just be too merciful for people like them, so Yale set them to an endless suffering worse than death.
The monsters born of the ice didn't look like living beings at all, and they didn't have mind or emotions; they just lived to kill.
Even the pain was something that just the consciousness in the ice suffered since the monsters didn't sense anything.
