Father Jas was silent for a long ti and when he ca to, he asked the head researcher if that was all and she confird by nodding.
"Since we can't discover the source of his power, prepare for the Holy Sacrifice. I'm sure that whatever it is that's inside his body can't escape from the eyes of the Holy Mother. I want everything prepared by tomorrow night."
"Yes Sir. Right away Sir."
...
When Lucius revived, he expected to find himself in the lab and experintation would continue but no. He found himself at a huge hall that looked exactly like the Awakening Room but without the blue crystal or the huge magic array formation on the floor. The statue of the beautiful woman was still there though.
Looking around, he realised that the place was empty and he seed to be tied in sothing that resembled an altar. He didn't know what it was but from how he was placed, he was sure that he was in an altar of so sort.
He lay flat on the huge white stone, his arms pulled outwards to create a cross like shape with his legs tied together. He could only move his head and nothing else. The white stones were inscribed with magic formations that when all were activated at once, would create a magic array formation. As for the ceiling, it wasn't there, instead there was the clear night sky with nurous stars accompanying the moon.
Just as he finished his analysis, a large group of people wearing robes entered the hall. Their robes were pure white and loose fitting, they walked barefoot and finally their faces were covered in cloth masks with a print of the woman statue.

They circled around him and began their incantation or whatever it was they were doing. Lucius honestly didn't and didn't care, he just waited patiently for sothing to happen and was sure that it would help him change his current situation.
The incantation lasted for about thirty minutes or so before these fanatics stopped. Then, one of the masked figures holding a dagger slowly approached him. The dagger looked blunt so it obviously wasn't for cutting at. The dagger was also well maintained and looked new.
"Lucius my boy, tonight is our final night together. After tonight, you shall ascend and beco sothing greater! You shall have the highest honour of eting with our Holy Mother and join her ranks to boost her strength! Rejoice boy! You shall be reunited with your own kind!"
Lucius could tell from the voice that this was Father Jas. No matter how perfect he hid his face, even if the man was a pile of shit, Lucius would still recognise him. That's how much this old geezer had affected his mind. Hearing Father Jas speak so righteously, Lucius finally understood what had happened to the others.
Like in the movie on Earth "Apocalypto", they had beco sacrificial lambs for this evil cult that dared to call itself holy. They'd been sacrificed to this Holy Mother and Father Jas probably received so benefits because he spent almost everything on Lucius in hopes that he was special so there had to be benefits for him.
Since Lucius was laying naked with his chest bare and vulnerable, there was nothing Lucius could do to defend himself.

The others watching from the sides started the incantation again while Father Jas placed his hand on Lucius's head as though praying for him. When the light of the full moon shone on both Lucius and Father Jas, he only heard Father Jas say three words.
[IT IS TI!]
Then pierced the dagger straight through his chest and into his heart. He bled profusely and the blood flowed from his wound onto the white huge white stones with magic formations. The magic formations lit one by one as the blood continued to flow until it reached the floor where there was an even bigger magic formation. Lucius watched everything calmly but his eyes were full of excitent.
When all magic formations had been activated by Lucius's blood, the statue's eyes began to glow in a blinding light. Then the statue seed to beco lifelike, Lucius didn't know if this was happening for real or if he was hallucinating but sothing was happening.
When Father Jas stabbed him through the heart, he didn't feel physical pain but instead felt like it was his Soul that had been stabbed. It was unimaginably painful but Lucius endured with a straight face. He didn't know what it was but sothing within him refused to scream in pain and agony so he endured. Father Jas pulled out the dagger and stabbed him again and again.
Lucius could feel his consciousness slowly fading away and in his last monts, he saw soone. A woman who wore extrely revealing clothes, if they could even be called that. What she wore only covered her breasts and private part, unlike the statue woman whose clothes hid her body.
This woman was so beautiful. She was so beautiful that that was the only word Lucius could use to describe her. He felt himself being embraced by this woman and Lucius's final thoughts before his consciousness disappeared were simple.
"I... would...smash..."
Father Jas heard Lucius's words and grabbed the dagger tighter. Even though hidden, his expression was very dark and gloomy as if soone fucked his wife and told him to join in.
'Fucking horny bastard! Still thinking about sex even in the face of death! I don't know whether to admire you or loath you even more!' he thought to himself.
The white stone was now crimson red in colour and once Lucius died, it cracked open and now resembled a coffin with red liquid inside which Lucius's corpse fell into, then it closed up and returned to normal.

Now, all they had to do was to continue with the incantation and wait for their Holy Mother to deem the process complete and award them for their hard work. The church had sacrificed lots of people here so they knew that everyone was different and because they were different, the ritual would either be long or short.
One hour passed!
Two hours passed!
Three hours passed!
...
Slightly more than ten hours had passed but still nothing. These guys were now tired and thirsty but the ritual couldn't be stopped once started. Another two hours passed and it was already the next day and was already approaching daylight. Just as they were about to lose their patience, a strong force pushed them far away. Many of them died on the spot while those who survived kept vomiting blood.
"What...happened..?!!!"
CRACK!!!
The sound of cracks sounded behind them and when they turned to look, the Holy Mother statue was full of cracks before it shattered into dust that was then blown away by the wind.
"What...fucking happened?!" asked Father Jas but he didn't receive an answer. What he did receive though was great fear and trepidation.
"So, this is what it feels like to be awakened?!"
"Impossible...!"
