Marco: And you...
Marco turned to Muzukiel, and frowned.
Marco: ...What the fuck are you?
Muzukiel: Insulting an angel as soon as you see one and declaring yourself a god… Truly, you are the Sinner.
Marco: No… Really… If I needed to fight, I would have prefer Eden instead of you, at least she was a beauty… Shit, you even stink…
Muzukiel glared at Marco, showing intense hostility at him, and at the same time, lecherous eyes appeared.
Muzukiel: I am the angel of harvests and fertility, Power Muzukiel… My role is to sprinkle abundant life upon the ground, and create growth. However… In front of the re-creation, life is in short supply. Shall I harvest your semen for the future?
Marco: Nice, 6th circle… More points!
Marco jumped at her, still in his Chakra Gate, however in front of Muzukiel's eyes, he was a bit slow, and her scorpion tail shot forward, Marco put his sword in front of him to block the attack, and was flung against the wall.
There was a big difference between Principality and Power, but nothing that Marco couldn't resolve!
Muzukiel turned around, and looked at the frightened priests.
Muzukiel: Alright, who shal-
*Pow*
Muzukiel was smashed away from a giant golden fist, the priests turned around and saw Marco unscathered and with a stronger aura around his body, which was the Kurama Gate.
Priests: YAHWEH!! YAHWEH!! YAHWEH!!
Marco: I will save you all!
*Ding*
*Special Quest: Save the priests.*
Muzukiel came out from a crater on the temple with a big bruise on her side and glaring daggers at Marco.
Muzukiel: You…!
Marco: Fuck off, everything I do something you all start with "You…", a bit of originality? No, I need to listen to clichè shit again and again!
Marco's hand got smaller and turned back at his original position, then he picked the sword that was stuck on the floor beside him, he filled his sword with lightning before he thrown it at Muzukiel.
The katana shot forward like a bullet and pierced Muzukiel's tails that she used to defend herself, her chest and the wall behind her, going out of the temple.
Muzukiel: I… I am Power Muzukiel… Harvests… And… Fertility…
She quickly vanished in particles of light…

Marco turned around, and saw the priests in the floor.
Priest 1: Ahh… What a disaster…
Priest 2: Ooohh… What should we do?
The King entered in the temple, and murmured.
San Ilia King: Not only betrayed by the object of their worship, but seeing the form that the angel took… The despair they are feeling is even worse than I feared it would be.
Hearing his voice, the priests looked up to him.
Priest 1: Your Highness… Have we been wrong this whole time? Everything we have ever believed in…?
San Ilia King: ...As you all know, I was once a repairman from another town. A humble clocksmith, I lived most of my days in extreme poverty. Equality, and the virtues of honorable poverty… These teachings of Illias were what drew me to the faith.
When I was young, I didn't quite understand the deepness behind those philosophies. But even then, I was moved by the deep love for your fellow man that it fostered.
Priest 2: But Your Highness…
San Ilia King: ...But now, Illias has abandoned us. So now is exactly the time to think about what drew you to your faith to begin with. Why did you come to believe in Illias and her teachings? Was it just simple blind faith for no reason?
Priest 1: I became faithful to repent the sins of my past…
Priest 2: I lost my wife, and was in despair…
Each priest share what brought them to the faith, one after another.
San Ilia King: I am sure that he has something to say, too. Right, Yahweh?
The King turned towards Marco, and the priests looked at him with reverence, Marco sighed and walked towards the statue of Illias, he looked at it and destroyed it with a punch, making the priests and king flinch a bit, he turned around and yelled.
Marco: Listen! I… Yahweh… I will give you 10 commandments that you will never break if you want them, however, I will assure you that you will not be punished, I just hope you will never break them… 'I can't believe those accidental lessons of religion could be useful…'
I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the hands of the Devil, out of the house of bondage.
1st. You shall have no other gods before Me.
2nd. You shall make no idols.
3rd. You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain.
4th: Keep the Sabbath day holy.
5th. Honor your father and your mother.
6th. You shall not murder.
7th. You shall not commit adultery.
8th. You shall not steal.
9th. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
10th. You shall not covet.
Follow these commandments with your heart, and you shall be rewarded with the glory of everyone else and be a saint. I will not punish any of you if you don't accept them or break them… But you shall be punished from your companions… Any question?
A Priest raised his hand.
Priest 1: What about statues of you?
Marco: 2nd. Commandment, you shall make no idols, don't make statues or temples, because I will reside in your hearts and soul… Even if impure… I shall be on your side like I shall be on the monsters' side, because in front of my eyes, you are all equal.
Another Priest raised his hand.
Priest 2: What is the Sabbath day?
Marco: Is the holiday… Which will be the day where Illias will fall, I will assure you that I speak no lies… If thou have faith on me, I shall win, and free the world from her evil hands…
Priest 1: B-But…
Marco: Don't worry, my child… Everything I say, will be law… If I say that I will slaughter Illias, then this will happen… Now, shall you believe on my victory? Or shall you create your own faith?
Before coming here, the King and Marco had a plan, which was for the priests to have a new figure to follow, and here it is…
Marco: 'What am I doing with my life….'
Priest 2: ...Long life to the Lord...
Priest 1: LONG LIFE TO THE LORD!
Marco: Alright, my job is done… Now I am going to save the other people…
Marco slowly got down from the platform where he was, and saw Alice looking at him with a grin.
Alice: I didn't took you for that type of guy…
Marco: …*Sigh* What do you want?
Alice extended her hand, and Marco sighed in exasperation, giving her 5 gold coins. Then he walked away, but he stopped and turned around.
Marco: I almost forgot, sorry for the Goddess Sword, I broke it!
Priest 1: No, no, don't worry about it, my Lord.
San Ilia King: Yes, it was a good thing you broke it, I couldn't think what would happen if it would go in an angel's hands.
Alice: Anyway, there's nothing more we can do here. Let's hurry to the next town, Yahweh…
Marco: ...Fuck…
An exasperated Marco got out and picked his sword back, before following Alice on Diane's back, and then they took off to Port Natalia.
