"So, where do you come from? you sure as hell aren't from the crimson lands." Said the bird who woke me up as I was about to fall asleep.
It appears to be midnight right now.
If I had to guess we have been on this "trip" for around 5-6 hours.
Seriously, what a pain in the ass this all is.
But, I guess I have to do with what I have for now.
I need to bullshit my way through this somehow.
"I come from a very faraway land above the clouds" I replied in a proud manner.
Good, he should now think I'm from Reine kingdom.
people there are treated with a lot respect from those down below due to how advanced they're and how much they have helped in maintaining the Franklien peace treaty.
it's pretty creepy how adored those rich peace loving morons are.
"you are pretty funny for a guy who is about to be eaten" the bird replied laughing
huh?
My clothes fit in perfectly with them.
They are the captial for worshiping me after all.
"What do you mean?" I replied
"It was a funny joke, don't try to push your luck by playing dumb" the bird replied switching his tone midway.
This bird is really getting on my nerves.
What does he mean by playing dumb? did something happen while I was gone? I need to know how long it's been since I have died, that wierd body of water really fucked up my sense of time.
We continued to fly over the mountainous wasteland this time with the beautiful full moon in the background.
The night sky was clear with no clouds to be sighted.
"There is no way out of this, you really are going to feed me to your kids?" I asked, breaking the long silence.
"Pretty much, I'm sorry but times are rough, you are the first organism I've seen in a while." he replied
"So it will be useless to try to get close to you cause you won't spare me?" I replied with a casual smile.
"yep" he replied coldly.
"Would you believe me if I told you I was a god?"
"Nope, but you are rather strange looking and do resemble citizens of the ancient kingdom Reine" he said while seeming to slow down his flight.
Maybe he does want to talk but we are getting close so he is slowing down.
I'm probably just reading too much into this, it could just be a habit.
Or am I, I mean he said I was the first organism he has seen in a while.
Maybe he is lonely, and just wants someone to talk to.
"but I also wouldn't be surprised if you were a god, nothing makes sense in this world so I am willing to entertain the idea Mr god."
Oh yeah I still I haven't told him my name.
"My name is génnisi"
"So did you die like all the other gods"
So tomio did kill them all.
"Yes but I will get back to heaven and make everything go back to how it was" I proclaimed
"Hey what year is it?" I asked nervously worried about the answer
"Huh? you don't know? it's 347 WA"
Wait a minute, what the hell is WA.
This is bad.
"what does WA stand for ?"
"Oh boy how do you not know this? when the hell did you die?"
"I died in 1047 GA"
"GA?????" He replied with the most surprised expression I've seen this damn bird make
His replies usually give of the vibe of an uninterested parent.
"1050 marked the end of the golden age, it's been 350 years!"
.....
"Bird what has happened in this world while I was gone"
The bird proceeded to give me a brief rundown of what has happened.
First things first, WA stands for Worst age.
All kingdoms throughout the world worship specific gods, and in those kingdoms there are certain individuals who act as a translator between the people and the god they worship.
Multiple kingdoms can worship the same god.
As I said Reine was the biggest kingdom that worshiped me.
From 1047 to the end of 1050, all the gods were killed, when one of them died their translators eyes turned into coal and started bleeding slowly from many random points in their body, this all happened as their bodies slowly started floating due to being dragged by a black rusty chain from the skies, this process would be later dubbed as the Chainafication.
This happened to all of the kingdoms in the span of those 3 years.
And on the last day of 1050 the last god was killed, and as the last translator went through Chainafication, a hole formed in the chest of every translator and a singular chain connected every single one them throughout the entire world.
Then their bodies all began to be compressed and squashed into meatballs attached to the chain (none of the old bodies decayed).
A voice began speaking in every creatures mind and it said "Hello you useless piles of flesh, it is me Tomio, the angel who, with the help of my comrades, killed all of your so called gods, and I'm the new ruler of heaven now yay, to be honest, us angels couldn't care less about you, so we will just leave you all in your little play box, oh yeah I forgot to mention we teamed up with the demons from hell to help us kill the gods, but we will not let those hideous things live with us in heaven, so we will send you new friends. see? we are much better than those lousy gods, we are sending you friends! so make sure to be nice to them Okay? bye"
So now demons run all over earth killing, pillaging and destroying everything out of pure hatred.
All to say the world is now a massive shit show.
The name Worst age fits really well now doesn't it.
But there is a certain kingdom that somehow still exists and thrives, they apparently have a certain holy artifact from a certain god that could really mess up the entire thing for the angels, and apparently they are using that and through it basically threatening the angels, in this kingdom only the extremely rich aristocrats live, they are located in the biggest northern continent, Klona, their kingdom is enclosed in large walls, they are a mystery that's for sure.
As bad as all of this is, the thing that intrigues me the most is which artifact could be so threatening to this whole situation?
You see every god has one, for some it's a weapon, for others a body part, it all depends. those artifacts are unbreakable nothing can harn them, even the few gods that have died, their artifact remained safe.
What gods artifact could be this dangerous? it has to be one of the fundamental ones.
As I was thinking of all of this I started thinking of mine.
You see mine is... well, uh how do I say this, my balls.
My balls are my artifact.
All of the non fundamental gods are mine and omorfiás children.
I am the god of birth and prosperity after all.
This made me start to think, if my artifact is a part of my body and when gods die their artifacts are left behind, and I seem to have kept my body....
"Hey bird can you look away for a sec"
"Huh?"
"It's urgent, just for one second"
I look in my pants.
They were missing.
My balls were gone....
