Chapter 34 - The mask sect

Ahmet reached the end of the corridor and reached the great hall, which was filled with people wearing black hoodies and white masks, holding books in their hands and reciting things in an ancient language , the hood had a drawing of a circle with the six-pointed star of David on its back , a dark aura was coming out of them and their soul was being robbed of them , they were turning in a circle, and the center of the circle was a drawing of the same sex pointed star.

Ahmet entered upon them, and they all revolted and targeted him in a mass attack. Ahmet brought out the white lion Atlas out of the void that pounced on them and devoured them all , Ahmet ordered him to leave some of them for interrogation, but they committed suicide by biting their tongues .

The strange thing is that their masks were destroyed automatically after their death, books were burned, bodies were destroyed, and only the cap remained. After everyone died, the demonic aura gathered in the circle and the circle began to glow, a strange body came out of it, a body that was not of a creature of the known races, but was like the body of a huge lizard with a strange head with a mask, and the limbs were like human limbs , she had one wing on her back, as if she were an incomplete creature, or as if she was a failed experiment in creation.

She started screaming as if she was in pain, but she could not express. Ahmet ran towards her and pulled the mask from her face. The creature seemed to calm down as if the pain had stopped , but her body seemed to fade away, and the mask was her lifeline, If before it was completely destroyed, I took out a book and handed it to him.

This time, the mask and the book did not disappear, so he put the mask in his bag, so the mask glowed and turned into light and merged with the second mask that have been found in the Seven Races Continent , then the mask became whiter and the black aura intensified. Ahmet opened the book and began reading the pages. The first page spoke about the power of faith.

wrote in it: "True strength is like a stove that can only be ignited by the power of faith, belief in oneself or others, belief in life or death, it does not matter what you believe, as long as you believe in something, you will undoubtedly do it.

Next page: "The sword that the blacksmith strikes the most is the best sword, and the fire that they try to extinguish is the one that burns more , work more brings development and development brings strength and hardships refine strength so that the one becomes wise in using his strength".

The next page: "Creation is a complex process that is subject to laws. This is what leads us to ask: Who created us with this perfection? How can a power that can perform a miracle like creation not be classified under the following framework, and if the one who created us is God, then he is worthy of worship".

The next page: "There are many reasons, and there are many beliefs and sects, and all this diversity stems from desires and desires , the weak creature knows his destiny and submits to the strongest, and the strongest submits to those who are more powerful than him, and the one who sits on the throne of power is called God, he claims divinity because he subjugated the weakest and because he did not find anyone to subjugate him, but the truth of the matter is summed up in a presence stronger than anything and anyone, we cannot call him a being or a creature, but rather a higher existence a creator ".

Next page: "Searching led me to the land of the gods to discover that they are also creatures and to prove that I killed one of them, the fact that i killed him did not anger them, but what angered them was the fact that I destroyed their belief that they are the elite and that only they can be called gods".

The next page: "As a reward for what I did, I was thrown into an eternal prison in the dark void , and in those many decades that passed by, I used to think: Am I the savior, or am I salvation, am I good or evil, am I the truth or lies? , all beings or creatures possess what is called lust, desire, and ambition, and as long as you possess one of them, you will never reach the station of God , It was not strength that brought you to the highest level, but difference, and as long as you are not different, your strength means nothing but domination of the weakest."

The next page: "I believed that there was no God, then I turned away from this because it is against logic. How can there be creatures without a creator? It was easy , The Creator is something beyond our comprehension that cannot be the same as us".

The next page: "I found in my prison a companion who spoke to me , this person was an entity beyond imagination ,he was like the god I had imagined, he had no shape, no color, and no smell ,he was a void , his strength was beyond expectations, his aura was like light and darkness, like life and death at this moment, i become certain that this being is the supreme deity ".

The next page: "This god asked me to be the salvation of earthly beings, and gave me a book in which there were rituals and worship and commanded me to publish them, then he disappeared. These were his last words, my gift to you. The gift was a white mask with a bloody eye ".

The next page :"The prison was opened and I went out and i was sent back to the earth again. It was as if I had gone back in time to the first time in which someone who called himself the king of the gods chose me to be his messenger on earth. I went and spread the teachings of my greatest God and published the book as he commanded, Everything went fine until those who called themselves the gods sent an army to kill me, and there were dragons in the army ".

The next page :" I ran and ran and ran and ran until I reached the edge of the world and they surrounded me from every side. The end was inevitable. Before I died, I wanted to pray to my God for the last time. Then I put the mask on my face , i heard an inner voice saying well done, I felt so hungry and wanted to devour everything in front of me , i saw nothing but darkness".

The last page: "When I woke up, I was standing in a sea of ​​blood and corpses, and black chains were binding my hands and feet, and the gods were crying out, look what you did, evil, you are the darkness of the world. I looked beside me for the mask, but it was fused with my face , my mind was confused with no memories, they took me to prison in a floating castle and then imprisoned me forever there, my God returned to reconcile my loneliness I was writing my diary, the diary of a god slayer, my god taught me how to create creatures but he asked me to surrender myself to the mask in order to cleanse my soul and develop my being and become a god True, the lizard wearing the mask was my first experience after that. I sent it abroad and sent with it my books, bracelet and my crown after I decided to surrender myself to the mask".

The book contained a lot of important information about the mask and the masked person. Ahmet took the book and put it in the bag. He was wondering about the mask he owned. Where did it come from? Is it possible that there are two masks?.

It was useless to think, so he decided to leave the island and go to the island of dragons, Searching for answers.
