Chapter 32 - Emissary of War.

A mysterious, melodious chant, giving off an ominous feeling sounded across the whole land, as the sky turned red colored and the slow falling meteor appeared between the clouds.

"Father what is that?". Said a child pointing to the meteor mid air.

"What a silly child, it is just a falling star". Consoled the father with an uneasy heart.

At the same time in the center of the city.

"The sky had turned red colored again, how many hundreds years had passed since the last time? I hope this time we can win as well". Said an old but awe inspiring man while gazing the falling meteor from the courtyard of his palace. " General!" He called next.

"Yes, your majesty". A muscular man kneeled while repleying.

"Arrange the army,it seems like the times of peace had come to an end". Commanded the old man.

"Your wish are my orders your majesty". Replied the muscular man before standing and turning around with a solemn face.

Scenes alike were repeating itself all around the land of Kush, as the matters about these strange phenomenon were of public knowledge between the adultos as the scar this land suffer the last time were still aching. While these scenes were unfolding around this land another phenomenon took place.

"Behold, Behold, War has come. The enemy has arrived and no mercy should be shown. Either kill or die is your the decision". An extremely sweet voice repeated the same sentence a couple of time for everyone to hear but despite the pleasure of hearing such voice the dreadful feeling caused a stir in everyone's heart.

(Looking to the current plane from another inside a high level realm)

"Aren't you planning in leave my place in peace". Said a man surrounded by a golden radiance currently being suppressed by a red colored chains.

"How can you said that? Don't you know, war is also a form of peace. Besides this place has been to peacefully during too much time, no one ever know when the enemy could knock at your dock, i am just helping them get ready." Said a red colored man in front of the chained one.

"You-". The golden colored god tried to rebuked in anger, he would had spit blood if he could for sure because of the thick face of the wargod in front of him.

"Hahaha, no need to be that angered the order came from above, even i am helpless this time". Said the wargod with an apologetically face."Besides, he still had to do something yet don't hate him already. Anyways if you want to hold a grudge you can always go and find him in Hell, if you had the qualifications to survive there, hahahaha". Added the red colored god with laughters.

Hearing the word Hell, the golden colored god felt like this time his plane would suffer more than ever before.

(Back at the current plane.)

From the middle of the falling meteor Akin was also witness of these unusual phenomenons as all this started when he crossed the odd shaped door. Was then when he was teleported to this world, with a simple mision, he needed to kill 25k people before going back, easier said than done.

Why he was sure this was another world? Well ignoring the lacks of moons in the sky ,it was because of his Divine Sense, the bit of it he had and was divided between Krieg, Neith, and a small wisp on him. Divine Sense was a mythical thing, and the point was you could felt your Divine Sense regardless how far you were from it, with some few exceptions, and right now the distance he was feeling between him and his Divine Sense, he didn't knew words or numbers to describe it, he could only said,it was far, too far. There was also the feeling he got from the world around, when he couldn't be sure why it didn't felt like Hell at all, of course the Akin of this time had yet to know about World Laws.

Akin was several times stronger than a normal people and also could do things a normal people couldn't but killing 25k persons all by his own?If he were to spend a large amount of time it was possible but had he so much time? Beside he was adviced he would been see as the mortal enemy of most of this world population and that was enough for they to bully him with just numbers, after all he had to reach the level in which he could ignore mortals as a threat.

Furthermore nor Amon nor Botis were by his side as seemed like they were being tested too or they were held in somewhere else as they couldn't undergone the test together.

Then again, killing such large amount of people, the Akin from before even when he had killed people by the thousands, he never killed without a proper reason, and when there weren't reason it was because their empires, his and his enemy's, were at war . But he never killed because he liked doing so nor he killed having other options.

This time around it was his own election to undergo the Inheritance process and its requesite was to kill people, therefore his election was to kill people, even if he didn't knew it would end like this. As this was his election he would bothered himself with the implications, if they die it was because they were weak,if he died it was because he was weak.

The starting conditions were even, he was more powerful than any of them, they were far more people than he alone. Now no one had any other election, he needed to kill them or he would die in here without accomplish any of his goal, they needed to kill him or a great number of them would be lose. The only thing both parties could do was to wish luck for the other.

When the meteorite collided with the ground there wasn't tremble nor din nor explosion, just a concentrated red deep crimson fire and a human figure inside.As the Akin stood up the fire around was absorbed by his body and he finally could be called a Energy Transformation in all rule.

This was the only thing he was provided with, a further refination of his spiritual energy which was the reason of the slow fall of the meteorite, and not for the sake of made the scene more dramatic. Now his spiritual energy was red colored and was extremely overbearing, this kind of spritual energy born from chaos was another of the things which made demons hated by everyone, as where this energy existed the other spiritual energy would be devoured or destruyed, the multiverse called this kind of spiritual energy, infernal spiritual energy.

Feeling the surge of power in his body Akin clench his fist before a pair of wings protrude in his back and he shot himself in the sky.

When the meteorite fell almost every faction in this world had the same thought 'Let's go to war'.

As for Akin in midair his only thought was 'Let's the slaughter start'.
