Chapter 96 - World Peace (1/2)
”Good.”
Simon gestured downwards, signalling for all of the angels to return to the ground, lest they want to end up like Oriel. Perhaps they might be left with less, maybe turning into split atoms and causing a fission reaction from how weak they are. Many things taken into account, Simon probably would not use the same move on weak angels.
”So, Angels, do you accept me as your lord?” Simon asked as he landed on the ground, eyes glowing vibrantly with a mocking look on his countenance.
”I, Lord Light, no... Servant Light, hand over all of my territories and powers to my lord!” Light knelt down on the ground and did not dare look up.
”LORD! How can we bow down to a devil?! This is a sin against tradition! How can we look our ancestors in the eyes once we've subordinated ourselves to these wretched fiends?! WE MUST SLAY THEM ALL!!” An angel shouted in contest to Light.
Light knelt down at the centre of the angels. Many angels also knelt down in support of Light's decision, but a few could not abandon their pride. To the majority, these few had become a threat to all angels' continued existences.
”How am I a wretched fiend? I am kindhearted and only wish for everything to be peaceful in the realm. Have I not just slain your worst enemy, the Emperor of Hell?”
”You are evil! You killed Oriel and expect angels to bow to devils! We cannot lay down our pride to a tyrant!”
”A tyrant? I am no such thing. I only killed Oriel because he, like many of you, were here to murder my people. I for one, do not appreciate it when you attempt to murder my people. In fact, I am being very merciful in letting you all live.”
”An Evil Tyrant nonetheless.” An angel scowled.
”Hahah...” Simon hovered above the centre of everyone, displaying a sense of carelessness.
”I am Simonifirac Crypts, your lord sovereign.” His voice resounded across the realm. Even those in their homes far away and those in the human and angels worlds could hear him clearly. His voice echoed in their ears a sense of fearlessness and absolute dominance.
”I have slain the Emperor of Hell and subordinated the Grand Chancellor of the Grand Union, therefore conquering the known realm. Many of you do not know my name, but as of today, even the deaf shall hear it. My words have transcended your barriers of worlds and reached out to the entirety of this realm.”
All activity across the realm halted as people began to hear the voice of Simon and instinctively look up to the sky. As if in awe of a deity, they could only look up to him.
”My words are now law. My judgement is absolute. You will heed my words as if they are a sword to your neck, for you will thank me. The realm is unified under me, and you are now under my protection. So naturally, life will be safer.”
