False Gods

Alex took a while to come to terms with the fact that Alchemy god was very much likely dead if what this spirit said was true.

He was a little saddened that he would never get to meet him in this life. He was the one whose knowledge was helping Alex so much after all.

'I should have known,' he thought. 'Why else would I get someone's book if they were still writing it.'

"Did you have some sort of bad blood with the Alchemy god?" Alex asked.

"Of course, why else would I kill him? He was a really bad guy," the artifact spirit said.

"Alchemy God… was a bad guy?" Alex asked. He wanted to learn more about him, and it seemed this spirit was the only thing in the world that would tell him.

"Yes," it said. "Very bad."

Alex felt slightly surprised. He had never expected a god to be a bad guy. 'Did the spirit mean Evil… or?' 

"So, he did something evil?" Alex asked, trying to pry an answer.
