Chapter 336: The Fallen Half God
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
On both sides of the divine palace, there were tall statues, about 30 feet high, of warriors carrying swords who were down on one knee. Along the stairs stood tall statues of the God of Earth and War. The palace hall floor was made completely of gold. Countless precious gems were inlaid on the ceiling. The stained-glass windows were built by the well-known Ron Alchemy Workshop of Sean. Golden light shone from the jeweled lamps, radiating luxury and extravagance.
A narrow passageway opened in the ground. Lynn Ahenaten walked into the divine palace with a look of smug satisfaction. His plan had now eliminated his competitor, removing the obstacle standing between him and a god’s na.
“I shall be the one who becos a true god! An evil wizard dared to dream about becoming a true god, ridiculous!” Lynn Ahenaten said.
His face was jovial, but his eyes were cold as they turned to the tall statues of the god. His fingers lightly brushed the Sword of the King which was tied around his waist. His eyes glittered with madness and greed for a god’s na.
“The God of Earth and War, world domination, are all mine!” he exclaid.
At that mont, a ray of light struck the capital city of the Kingdom of Ahenaten, the kingdom of rcenaries. All clouds were dispersed by the glaring light. The light seed to be shining from so place out of this world, covering the entire royal capital city.
Pedestrians on the streets had to cover their eyes as the sudden, dazzling light was hurting them. The street fell into chaos. Everyone stopped. Even the people indoors noticed how bright the light was outside. It ca from the center of the city.
A beam of light covered the divine palace of the God of Earth and War, connecting the sky to the ground. Sothing sparked within and flew up to the sky.
The people cried out in confusion.
“What’s going on?”
“It’s the dominating power of the great God of Earth and War! It’s the power of a true god!”
“Almighty god! Have you co to our world again?”
The crowd was shouting his god na, but Lynn Ahenaten found himself in danger . The light beam struck him, then imdiately the Sword of the King tied around his waist broke out of his control and flew into the light, rising up to the sky in the direction of the Star Kingdom of the gods.
“What’s happening! My Sword of the King!” Lynn’s expression changed instantly.
He reached out to the sky, but at the sa ti, an entrance to the underworld opened below him. The darkness spread out imdiately. Rays of tentacle-like black light rose up from the Kingdom of Death, reeking of deadly power, and entangled Lynn Ahenaten.
He looked down and saw that a giant black sun was burning below. It was the underworld’s sun of death which never sets. It gave out swirls of power, restraining his strength.
Deathbringers holding soul sickles showed themselves in daylight in the world of the living. Horrifying shadows erged in the divine palace, floating in the air, surrounding Lynn Ahenaten.
Hundreds of Deathbringers appeared from their world and surrounded him. The rules and power of the underworld overpowered him, leaving him with no chance of escaping. All Deathbringers sang the paean of death, dancing around him.
There might have been a way out if Lynn still had the Sword of the King. However, without the Sword, he could not possibly fight against the power of the underworld. Nurous rays of black light wrapped around Lynn, dragging him into the world of death.
“No! I am a god! I will not accept the judgent of death! I am the immortal god, the eternal dominance. You have no right to bring to the trial of death! You have no right!” Lynn scread and struggled hysterically.
Divine incantation and power spread out, blowing up the enormous palace. The sound of explosions spread from the center of the city to the surrounding areas, raising dust.
The Divine Shadow broke away from the body of Lynn Ahenaten, but it was still trapped by the underworld’s power. The Divine Shadow struggled to move away from the ground, spreading itself out across the sky.
“The god, the god has shown himself!” yelled a pedestrian.
“No! What is that? There’s an abyss on the ground!” cried another.
“The god...the god is...”
At that very mont, all civilians and praying believers in the Kingdom of Ahenaten watched as their god was dragged down into the abyss by countless black ribbons. The enormous Divine Shadow scread and cried while struggling. Every person was in shock, mumbling with confusion and fear. Believers collapsed to the ground with their legs trembling.
They were witnessing their god, the great God of Earth and War, screaming in pain and howling in despair. Their voices called out in shock.
“On my god! What am I watching?”
“You Majesty! How could this happen? Your Majesty!”
“Demon! Demon!”
“No, that’s the abyss of death. The sky...that’s Deathbringers in the sky, the ssengers of the Goddess of Death!”
The enormous entrance of the underworld devoured Lynn. No matter how Lynn scread, he could no longer escape his fate of falling into the world of death. The Divine Shadow gradually disappeared into the enormous dark portal to the underworld.
Lynn Ahenaten clung to the ground with despair in his eyes. He’d never imagined that his plan would end up like this. The Goddess of Death was not in the underworld. Even if she was, she would never go beyond the world of death to interfere with the world of the living. Moreover, he’d had the Sword of the King. He should’ve been able to escape anyti he wished. As for the God of the Sea, he was far away from land and could never set foot on the ground.
A giant palm cracked the ground, destroying nurous houses as The Divine Shadow sunk into the underworld. Darkness covered his face, then his eyes. At last, the hands still clinging to the living world lost all strength and let go.
“No!” Lynn’s eyes opened wide in the darkness. Anger, regret and fear filled his body.
As the chanting of the Deathbringers ended, the entrance to the underworld disappeared, leaving the cracked ground and the destroyed divine palace behind. At that mont, civilians and nobility of the Kingdom of Ahenaten ca back to themselves. The army rushed into the palace but nothing but fractured statues and ruins remained.
In the year 342 on the San calendar, the rcenary King Ahenaten fell into the Death Underworld Sector. The sudden death of the rcenary King and the discord among his descendants brought the Kingdom of Ahenaten into an eight year long chaos.
Several countries played a part in the civil war of the Ahenaten Kingdom. The prevailing belief in the God of Earth and War faded away with the carnage. At last, Frank Ahenaten, the great-grandson of Lynn Ahenaten, stood out in the war and stabilized the situation in the Kingdom of Ahenaten.
At the sa ti, in the Floating-space City, a black light and a white light travelled through the dinsional door from the far away Maria’s World, and landed inside the Capital of God.
The lights sparkled and transford into two tall, beautiful goddesses. The Goddess of the Sun, Verthandi, wore a white silky gown and a tiara, and the Goddess of Death, Deldi, wore a dark robe. Together, they walked into the land where the creator lived.
