Chapter 62 - Devourer of worlds

I decided to try something new, mostly because I was bored.

In most movies, earth would get invaded by some form of higher power. Like an alien invasion or divine god.

And now with the grayfog, I am that divine god. So now, I'm gonna cause a very pleasant surprise for a very random planet.

————————————————

Currently, in Europe. The day was quite peaceful. Until the sky ripped open, literally. People from below were terrified that the sun had suddenly been blocked by this… interference.

From the hole in the sky, a golden beam of light shot to the ground and scorched the urban landscape in searing heat.

Up above the sky was a figure clad in a white knee length coat, button up shirt with black slacks and black leather dress shoes.

"How interesting. The military should be mobilised soon, I'm kinda making myself too obvious for a reason." Just as I was running my mouth, I saw fighter jets flying my way and firing missiles towards me, "I guess I should stop talking now, my entertainment is here now."

————————————————

Before missles hit the target, the pilot identified what they were hitting, "General, it seems that the cause for London's destruction… is a man?!"

"What!" The general was surprised, first a hole in the sky then a light of judgement straight from the Bible and now a man just flying there in the sky like a god… is that God?

They had gotten a view of the sky's, waiting for the smoke to clear. When it did, they saw the man completely fine, not a scratch.

The fleet of jets tried to circle around to attack again until they saw the man raise his hand, and one of the jets stopped mid-air, the man closed his hand and…

Crush

The jet was instantly compressed and crushed by an invisible force, " Alpha team fall back! FALL BACK!"

But what he didn't expect was a completely unfamiliar voice coming from the radio, " It's too late."

Everyone in the control room grew shocked, " Who is it I'm speaking too?" The general grew curious but remained unafraid.

" My identity matters not. It won't help you in the end."

"Really I think knowing who or what you are might help a lot."

"You sure are ignorant if you think it will help."

" How about we talk face-to-face?" The moment the generals words fell, the man materialised into the command room from thin air, "H-hello."

The man looked around and only muttered primative, the general took out his gun and pointed at him, "Explain what you are!"

"No!" The man's words echoed, causing everyone in the command room to immediately draw their guns, " You don't seem to realize the situation you're in."

" No you don't! On my command and FIRE!" The room went alight with flashes of sparks and sounds of bursting gunpowder.

The gunfire stopped and the target had been completely fine. He walked closer to the general with a mocking glare, " Do you NOW see the situation you're in? Your weaponry mean absolutely nothing to me."

The general remained firm but was visibly shaking, he couldn't even hold his gun properly anymore, " What… are you?"

" Me? I'm just human." After the words, he disappeared.

" I want everyone to find out where he went and prep the nuclear warheads." The general looked at the big screen and and found that their was already a new location input into the programme.

…The Stonehenge.

————————————————

I was currently standing on a stone piller looking at the sky while my hair and clothes were fluttering in the wind, contemplating a few issues, until Nyx's thought communication came to me through the fog, "Is it really necessary to aurafarm like that, you know no one can see you right."

"Ha, sweet Nyx, this is a valuable lesson that I expect you to learn by memory. Aurafarming is not for an audience, it's meant as an applause to ones own soul."

Nyx's tone became solemn, "Dad, is this really necessary."

"What do you mean?"

"You're only doing this because you don't want to take that bloodlust out on Guy again?"

And my smile immediately vanished, "Yes, yes I am."

"Dad, it really is just better to beat Guy up then to take that rage out on billions of innocent people. You don't have to do this. Guy wouldn't want you to do this."

"Nyx, I'm not an altruist and frankly my moral compass isn't as it used be. And I don't think Guy would care if I destroyed this place."

" I was talking about you, do you think Guy would want you to compromise yourself just to for the chance to spare him. You don't even know if you would kill him!"

" Yes, I would, I've done the maths. Frankly comparing my original strength as a saint and applying my awakening as a factor, I don't think that theirs a way he could beat me. Even if their was a way, I don't put things to chance."

" So you're opting for mass genocide?"

" Mass genocide? No this is extinction."

" Dad-"

" I've already done research for this conquest, this world is mistake, everything here is built on lies. For some reason, this world functions as of all inhabitants were born with sin. I can assure you that their is nothing innocent here. I'm not killing, I'm simply cleaning up a stain."

" DAD-" I temporarily cut off her connection.

" Sorry Nyx, I don't want you to see this. Just stay the innocent girl you've always been and don't be tainted by your father's heart."

Just as I was talking to myself, a whole army of tanks, fighter jets and foot soldiers marched closer to the stonehenge, " Right on schedule."

————————————————

" Everybody fire at that thing, NOW!" The general roared causing everyone on the battlefield to fire all at once at the invader.

As he suspected, nothing worked on him, the bullets he, not only just took but also redirected back at the military forces, same with the tank shells and missiles. All of them were rendered ineffective and returned to sender.

" Keep him there long enough!"

" Warthogs inbound. Ready to fire nuclear warheads."

"FIRE!"

"Warheads launched, ETA to target, 20 seconds."

The general was looking at the battlefield, at his soldiers with indifferent remorse, "My brother's-in-arms, you have served your country well. Unfortunately for you, this is the end."

The missile landed birthing a mushroom cloud that incinerated the landscape, and then another and another until all life in that area ceased.

The men in the command hall, let out their breath as if finally getting some form of relief, although it was clear none of them were happy about the outcome, "Command, Has anyone gotten out of the blast in time."

" Nobody came."

Suddenly everyone was surprised, the very target that they sacrificed there army for had just spoken through their Comms.

A tornado formed at ground zero, clearing the smoke of the explosion. Once both the tornado and smoke vanished, the target had appeared in the sky, immovable and unscathed, "You sacrificed your army's, your weapons, your dignity and for what? To kill me?"

"Do we have anymore missiles."

"Sir, the silos are failing and the jets won't take off."

The general looked to the screen, "W-we can talk about this."

The figure raised his and hands and opened his mouth, "And god said…

…Let there be light."

————————————————

The army watched as golden light released from his body, slowly the radius increased and increased.

The general saw as the light enveloped everything that he called home had began to end.

And the general fell to his knees and closed his eyes.

————————————————

When the light faded, Simon found himself floating in empty space, no land, no atmosphere, nothing.

He teleported back to Eden and found Nyx standing there waiting, " Is it done?"

" Yes."

She walked forward and tightly hugged him, almost afraid of losing him, " I…I hate you."

" I know."

The first time I released my rage, I had felt relief but now I just feel empty.
