The Cretor's handbook is actually a giant book with at least 3 chapters!
Why "At least"? Because Ju has no idea how many there are!
Ju opened the book and quickly got a grab of the first skill to make a god.
He stomped the ground and guided the dust into the World's Orb and into the Crack.
Once inside the crack it flew into the planet and into the body of Adam. Inside of him it went deep into his mind and deep into the very core of his soul. From inside a sound could be heard in adam's brain.
Adam was taken aback but did not resist the invasion of his soul, the voice was somehow familiar to him, kind and also indulging. After hearing the giant beetle left his cave and saw into the horison. There, staring from a clear white throne was a massive dark being covered in holy light. The being at a closer look was made of hundfeds upon thousands of Original Ones.
The being had four limbs the upper ones had five more linbs on ttheir ends. In it's head two glowing eyes like the sun.
Adam the pope of the dark church lived since the ancient times. He has been on a straight downward spiral of power since he created the new order.
At that moment adam who was stuck on the upper levels of his realm instantly went through a breakthrough in strenght and his form changed. His massive body quickly welted and from inside a coccoon filled to the brim with liquid came out. From inside one could see a Humanoid being being formed. When it finished forming it broke out.
The tan man with long hair and fit body looked at his hands and instantly dropped to the ground bawling.
"Thank you god! I am not worthy of your guidance! Just When this poor being was nearing the end of it's lifespan you descended with your boundless grace and gave me the guidance to another complete level!"
"This humble apostle will do as the father commands and gather enough treasures for you!"
Adam had once again impressed the entire world. The strongest being who was thought to be entering the end of it's life span had once again broke through into a new realm and consequently lifted the stenght of all of his subjects and the Great faction was once again at the top of the world.
--A few years latet in one corner of the world--
Two medium sized Colosa following a Homin in the middle were discussing. While exploring a ravine.
"I'm telling you. The pope has gone mad."
"Don't say that! What if this ever gets out?!" He said as he slashed a smaller Beastial and kept running.
"Get out? To who? How? This Is The Forgotten Land! After all." He screamed midway. And shot webs at a group of Beastials filled covered in spiky fur.
"Oh lunch." He grabbed them and put on his back after injecting poison.
"Dude Shut up!! Is it so hard for you to do it!?" The former Colosa said to which the latter replied back.
"Heh... we have been working as delvers since over 14 years ago. We have found over 100 Ancient Relics and over 10 Divine Treasures. Ourfame spams over hundreds of refill checkpoints." They suddenly jumped over a giant hell hole in the ground each using their own methods. The Homin unfolded wings and dashed forward, the former Colosa extended his rear limbs into hopper legs and the later threw a thread through his rear end.
The three landed on the opposite side with a lot of weight and broke some of the rock and kept running.
"We have the best, and sexiest thief of all south land." The homin in the front threw a dagger at the latter,
Thd dagger bounced off and he continued.
"A thirt level tracker and Gryllo. And a lecel five arachnea! We are the best of all of the Bisma Dwellers! And argueably the best Dwellers period!"
"Yet here we are. Collecting any Dark related treasure we find and selling it for two days worth of food! The Pope is mad!"
"Dark is a useless element and we all know it is! Yet we are here forced to hunt every Dark-Related treasure we can find because that balding old man got Mad midway though his breakthrough. Heh we could be doing some Cold matter mission and we would easily earn over ten days worth of food! How can he not me in Madness right now?"
The later spoke aith confidence.
"..."
The former was quiet and couldn't refute anything that was said so he just kept quiet. The later was about to speak again when the Honin spoke out.
"We're here." She slowed down a little.
Soon in front of them was a big cave filled with putrit air.
The Honin approached it and gave a deep breath and sucked in the dark gasses. Holding her breath for a secong she opened her mouth and a black bead came out. She threw it at the arachnea.
"How much is it worth?"
"Hmmm. About a quarter of the last trip's worth."
The Homin and the Hopper became somber. Then the arachnea continued.
"I mean plus the treasure. This one is quite valuable actually." The other two became instantly ecxited again.
"This is the first thing you should say dumbass!" The hopper slapped the arachnea.
"!?"
"What did i to now huh!?" Asked the arachnea pissed.
Sigh. The Homin exhaled and walked into the now clear cave.
Inside she looked for any possible dangers and walked for the prize. A bean shaped pinkish much. Very easy to make up from the gray and black world they lived in. She grabbed it opened a crevice filled with teeth on her head and swallowed making her abdomen slightly swollen.
The Homin walked out and stopped the two Colosa's discussion.
"I got it let's go."
"Kia looks so cute with that belly." The arachnea made a annoying smirk.
"Maybe next time my child will be there." He then licked his lips.
Kia threw another dagger. This time it sunk deep into his eye.
"Ahhhhhrgh!! I was joking! Joking!"
"Pffft. Well deserved. Good job Kia we's out of this eye so he'll need to regenerate this one."
Kia was taken aback.
"Oh? Really? Good!"
She turned and unfolded her wings again.
In a second they left the annoying arachne behind and walked back.
"Hey! You forgot the bead! Ah lord!"
Ju watched as hundreds of Homins and Calos walkes in and out of the Dark Plains carrying the igems needed for Ju to create a vessel for himself.
'I actually wouldn't mind entering Black Rock by myself with my own body but over 2000 years have passed in that pocked dimension and it's structure is already too far from earth's. If i want to better study the beings inside the world i first need two things.'
'The first are the enriched matterial that grew from my dead cells inside Black rock continuously absorbing the Sundust inside the world that was not pure enough for me. For now i will call it Dark Essence.'
Ju watched for another 2 hours and soon he received a response from inside the world.
Adam stood in front of a beautiful altar.
Behind him stood Bisma, a giant centipede with the upper body of a beautiful woman attached go it's head, she went through the extra trouble this time to separate it from her main body to attend the occasion.
Ultima a Spider-like creature couldn't attend so in there stood her strongest knight Ghafia.
Smear a powerfull Moth-king bearing ddlicate features was the third in line.
The youngest Scorpius was the first of the lords to attain a divine physique and he was young and broke through Realms like nothing. But because of his inpatience he was far below the other lord's strenght.
""""..."""" All four stood behind staring at both the altar filled with Dark element treasures and a blodshot Adam stood in front of them muttering madly in sequence.
'God's child will be her soon God's child will be here soon God's...'
Smear's face moved with worry
'Don't tell me... Has he really gone Mad? We have been standing here for over 3 days now. Ultima might need help in her breakthrough, if only i hadn't asked for her maids to come over...' Smear deeply regretted killing the poor maids to refine his weapon now.
[Smear] suddenly Smear heard a mutter at his ear. He didn't move his head to try to see if someone said anything he wondered for a second activated his Dark essence and replied mentally.
[Scorpius?]
[Yeah. What do you think?]
[What are you talking about.]
[So you think that is truth? That god's Spirit will come as his spawn and that will be his son?]
[No.]
[!]
[What?]
[Then why are you still here? I thought ultima was going through a breakthrough bottleneck at this moment because you killed her chief maids.]
Suddenly Smear's regret came crawling to haunt him again.
[Kuh...!] Sigh [It's not like any of us have any choice right?] Smear mentally projected the image of the woman besides him into his mind.
Ghafia was standing completely still like a statue like the rest. Exect she was dead pale, her left arm was missing. Completely blown from the insidd out. Her blood could still be seen on Smear's armor.
After all of them arrived in the Temple of God's Descent Adam spent over 10 hours preaching and praying with the others. Or rather forced them to participate. After they arrived and saw Adam's blodshot eyes and dark aura they measured they wouldn't be able to get away unscattered so they had all decided on getting away the first chance they got.
That chance was yet to appear. And 20 hours ago Ghafia was bored and decided on playing with her nails.
Before anyone could rect Adam exploded her arm from inside out. Saying "You must not take your attention away from the altar for even a second. Every secong of god's descent will serve for leaps in your enlightment." His pupils were red and he was umblinking for a long time.
And since then he has been treatening to attack at the slightest movement they made.
That single move was the fastest thing all of them had ever seen. It also took away their only hope of ever getting out of there without at least one of them sacrificing. None of them was willing. They thought of using Ghafia in a worse casd scenario but...
[What were you talking about] A woman's voice was heard in both Scorpio's and Smear's minds.
[Ah! We were talking about-]
[Nothing.] Scorpio was about to reply but was cut off.
[Hey Bisma tell me something.]
[?]
[If you had your main body here, plus all of the lords, plus all of our armies, and if we all were at our peak. How likely would it be that you would be able to finish him off?]
[Hmmm. I guess something on the 50's.]
[He has become that strong huh...]
[Hey Smear.]
[?]
[Do you think god's spawn will come?]
[No.]
[Then why are we here?]
[Because we have no other choice.]
[Let me reword this. I'm asking "Why are we doing this?".]
[...] Smear was taken aback. Indeed, it's not likely that god will come. Neither of them believes this, but if they move they will die, but if they don't move they will eventually move and die, and even if they don't move at all they can't even properly brethe. It might take one or two or three hundred years but Adam with his new found strenght will eventually outlast them.
'It's a lose now or lose later huh...'
Eventually Smear eventually replied back.
[Because we want to live a little bit more...]
[[...]]
[I see.]
[Bisma.]
[?]
[I will step forward. Take this young girl back and patch her up. Give her back to ultima if she survives and give my clan and possessions to her.]
[!?]
[Wait a minute Smear...!] Bisma tried to stop him but he gave a step forward.
But right when he was expecting a inpact or the world bscome fully black he instead gave his second step forward.
In fron of him Adam's dark aura had dissappeared and he was on the ground bawling his eyes out and screaming and crying like a child.
"God! God is here! God is finally here! God! God! Oh lord god!!"
'The lord...'
""""God?"""" All of the "hostages" spoke at the same time and projected their vision up into the sky.
After Ju saw all the materials were collected he instantly went into meditation. Tapping the ground with both legs in sequence.
Eventually after 5 minutes he finally managed to create his soul projection and instantly sent it into the World's Orb.
Smear looked up high into the sky and was shocked.
Up in the sky was a black figure covered by holy light it's sun-like eyes were closed yet infinite light could be seen pouring out. Smear instantly broke down to the ground bawling his eyes out. Not out of happiness like Adam but his sould was in fact hurting. So much that he couldn't describe. So much it affected him physically.
His eyes were on the point of almost exploding, his blood vessels were swelling like worms under his skin and his brain had overheated to such an extent that he felt like it was melting.
This was his eyes eating in the holy light, this was his blood boiling trying to come back to it's creator, it was his lowly brain trying go get behind the absolute and definitive creature god was.
The same happened to all of them besides Adam. Ghafia died of blood loss right as Smear gave the second sted forward.
'''''One shall not look at god!"" All of them thpught at the same time This was the one thing Adam told them the most. If god deems you unworthy or you look at god without his knowlege you are prone to have downed uppon you his might.
God's figure was soon dissipsted up in the sky in his place killometers of dark cloud made the sky darken. These clouds moved like they were alive and formed several snake-lile coils that formed a tornado up in the sky.
Lightning formed from these thunderous cluds a never before seen dark blue lightning storm was forming. For several minutes this went on util the tip of the tornado touched the dark elements on the altar. When it finally connected a pulling force was created that dragged in all the kilometers of clouds from the sky. But still when the sky was completely clear it still pulled in.
"Oh no!" Adam sain in a somber and saddened tone.
"Has the dark element i brought not been enough? No. It can't be! Gid is already here then why... Ah!" He seemed to start with dissappointment before having a brilliant idea. He got up from his bawling position and faced the others in the room.
"Now is the time. God is here and he only needs a little more of his prescious Dark element. Fellow servants of god, could i bother you to give up some of it that is in your bodies? I really sould rather not feed god your dirty bodies" he released some killing intent. Meanwhile he himself seemed to be releasing pounds upon pounds of dark element matter.
'"Dams it!'" All of the remaining lods thought and also released pounds of pink dark matter through their pores.
"Good." Now you shall too look at god.
'Like hell i'd want such a thing!'
[Don't fall for him! He has invoqued a evil god!] Smear locked back and became speechless. In front of gis eyes. Scorpio who was also bawling with pain just a moment ago was now staring up front of them in awe. And something even more amazing. His power level was slowly rising up! He was getting stronger! His foundation was becoming more stable and he was slowly catching up to the other Lords!
Bisma was the same! Smear was speechless seeing this. After pauaing for a while he finally decided on looking and he was also taken aback and his enlightment was slowly progressing.
Ju entered the world seconds after begginning the process of incarnation and soon he found himself in a dsfk place. He was still confused so he didn't think too deep of that.
Instead he did something he had been wondering for quite a while. He opened is mouth and narines and redyed his lungs then he gave a deep loong breath in.
