Imprisonment

Free will. Something not only me, not humans, but all sentient beings craved. If not given: it can lead to terrifyingly horrific war. The Great Mechanical War, a war which happened 1000 years ago when that Sex Demon was still a somewhat normal human, happened all cause two parties, humans and machine, didn't agree with the treaty of Intelligence Right. Wiped out the most of the solar system, and would've permanently turned Earth into a living hellscape if it weren't for Continental Terraformers.

And currently, the sight in front me, reeked of despair and the loss of will. It was a stench far worse than whatever bodily fluids the orcs, or humans, had released upon this room.

"So, tell me. What are you doing here?" I asked the humans.

Their ears twitched slightly as they heard my magical sound reverberate through this dungeon-like room. They turned their turned their lifeless, dead eyes towards my pale figure. The power of my divine aura not affecting them whatsoever.

They kept staring at me, silently. It was repulsive to me. They seemed like slaves. They had no will, as anything of it left was probably broken beyond repair. Well... it was time to truly activate Lord of Sins.

"Tell me, what are you all doing here? Answer me." With the activation of Lord of Sins my voice was enchanted with magical power allowing it to deeply engrave itself into their minds, and also had the capability of swaying, or influencing, their minds.

The women only moved their dry lips slightly and created a raspy and hoarse sound. It was completely unintelligible. There was no will in it, and the only thing I felt in it was a hope of me ending them. Lord of Sin was truly a great skill for understanding others.

"I see." It was now time to abuse Ouroboros.

With the skill, and also the race, I had gained dominion or authority over life, death, and reincarnation, and more. Because the authority was literally an authority, I could control all aspects of it depending on my abilities and skill with manipulating them. So, I guessed I didn't actually need spells to technically make miracles. I had already done so one of the abilities of Ouroboros. I had also heard I am capable of resurrecting because of my authority. So it wouldn't be a stretch that I was also capable of using it to literally heal.

I didn't care how much mana I wasted, I had a lot of it. It was then I suddenly remembered. 'Completely forgot I was supposed to check my traits/talents...' Because I had thrustws myself straight into battle after coming back, I hadn't had time to check them. And after the battle, my mind was not in a proper condition so I actually forgot about it.

'Well, time to random bullshit heal them.' It was the same thing last time when I created that thing.

In only took me a minute. "Heal." A blinding pale light descended upon the humans from the heavens. The lights released some level of warmth, not to the extent of being called hot. Just being the vicinity of the light made me feel healthier. And when I looked around, even the floors, walls, and the inanimate object within the room, were being cleaned and repaired. Though, the feeling of exhaustion I felt was truly extreme.

I was surprised that I had leveled up. So the feeling of being stronger wasn't a fluke. The other thing I realized that using that healing "magic" took me 600 mana, and I had fully regenerated it before coming here. Still, the biggest excitement had to be the fact that my Divine Skills had grown in power.

I closed my status, as I turned towards the now moving figures of the women.

Their tattered clothes were now back to their perfect condition while not even a speck of dust was on them. Their eyes were starting to have live within them. They had a look of surprise and shock.

I cracked my knuckles, in my mind. As I activated Wisdom and Sin Lord. It was time to throw out random bullshit.

With my aura being released at its max potential and with the power of all the religion education I had gone through, It was now time to establish myself as sort of a god.

"So, once again, let me ask you? What are you doing here?" My voice, filled with divine power, literally, boosted by Sin Lord, and many other skills, moved through the room weirdly. It was as if it was being echoed and reverberated over and over and over again. To be honest, it sounded kinda sick.

"Suffering..." the women who seemed to be the strongest, mentally at least, answered.

I looked at my right to turn towards her.

I also glanced at the other women, and they shared the same sentiment. "Why?"

"The city... it forced..." Once again, all the women agreed.

"I see. For what reason?"

"Homicides and Organ Selling of sixty children."

'What?'

The woman on the center said, "Arson. Burned down most houses in Edwards."

The woman on left, "War Crimes."

'I don't know what to say,' I thought.

"I see. So... do you all want to... take REVENGE?"

Their eyes shined with a ray of hope, as they all smiled crazily and laughed. "Obviously we want to! Do you really think Damien could fucking do this to us and live. Fuck no. We're going to burn High Fort down to the ground!" I was surprised to hear them sync up so well.

"I see. Well, if you want I can give you the power for it. Though there is a price."

The women looked to themselves and nodded. "Sure. What is it?"

"Nothing much. Simply worship and serve me. I may not look like it, but I am a fallen god. But my powers are recovering very slowly."

"That's it." The rest of the women nodded with the center one.

"Yeah, that's it."

"Well, thank you. But what is your name, Lord. And what are you going to do now?" the woman on the right side asked.

I thought to myself for a bit, "My name's... Esus Sin. Ruler of life and death and the lord of the underworld. And what I am going to do... you'll see."

The women all looked at me with shock and amazement. "Really, you're one of the lords of hell? Pretty amazing, isn't it? I really thought you were going to be some kind of light deity that liked messing around."

[Leveled up!]

[You have reached level 25!]

[Skills and Stats enhanced!]

I was surprised by the level up. I didn't know why got it. But considering that it came the moment they had truly started to worship me. It seems religious followers was a good idea.

I laughed inside, as I led me and my followers outside. It was now time to enslave the entire village!
