Chapter 13(Choices of pleading, what happened to them?)

*BOOM!*

The world was split apart as everything lost its color of existence.

The mountains vanished into thin air with the ground below disappearing as if it had never existed in the first place.

Nothing remained within this void of the unknown other than Liam himself and the tiny human below.

Floating under a strange force though his face doesn't appear to be panicked at all.

He seemed to be... Freed...

No longer restrained nor burdened. His back felt much lighter than before, no more sins that he must carry.

Seeing the colossal light before him, Villar hurriedly clasped his hand and asked.

"M-my lord!... Is it the day already?"

Villar protruded down while asking. Stuttering a little within his words with his heart filled with nervousness.

At the same time, his eyes were filled with readiness for the result.

The long-awaited day is finally here, how can he not be disturbed.

Hearing his words, Liam then waved his enormous hand to the side.

Shattered the space into pieces with the void trembling a little under his might.

And thus, a large plain of land could be seen there with all of Villar's people gathered.

None was spared before this day with their clothes and even their bodies kept intact.

Their eyes were hollowed out of vitality with their bodies remained motionless of their prior posture.

Not of death but instead, the law of the time was applied to them. Unable to move nor to think.

"The time is finally here, Villar. "

Liam slowly said in a deep ancient voice.

Instantly attracting Villar's attention as he turned his gaze away from his people. Looking upward towards the large figure before him and he said.

"My lord... I-I failed the task of my choice..."

" Though can I ask for forgiveness for my people that I had managed to save?"

"You did fail, Villar. It was no surprise since I had been expecting such an outcome "

"T-then... I am willing to be punished for these people that I had saved, My lord. Anything... A million years or even eternal years of suffering. Please spare these few of my people from your judgment"

Villar pleaded earnestly.

And after Liam heard his words, he felt a bit emotional by how deep Villar's love was for his people.

Is this pure ignorance or just a true love for his people?. What a strange person.

"Then so be it... I accept your plead this time, Villar. And the punishment will be up to me..."

"T-thank you, my lord!... Thank you so much!"

Villar wanted to bow down onto his head, but since there was nothing below him. He could only clasp his hand together and slanted his head down slightly.

"Now then, the final choice that I had mentioned before will be changed into your current plead. Any thoughts on this?"

"I have no remorse for my prior decision, My lord. Anything for my people"

"I see... What a firm will you have. So then, let us bring you the true Eternal world"

"T-true Eternal world?"

*swoosh!*

Without even him being able to think much.

The whole void below instantly turned into a vast continent that was surrounded by waters on all sides.

Mountains that peaked to the clouds like a sharp blade, rivers that spanned thousands of kilometers like a swirling dragon, and trees sprawling here and there like a majestic Phoenix.

"What!"

Villar blurted out in surprise as he gaped his sight onto the view below.

The endless blue and green coexisted against each other.

Those patches of clouds and even the completely different biomes that he had never seen before in his entire life.

"I-is this the eternal world?"

He asked back with excitement.

What a large world it is!.

"Indeed this world will be the place where your people will inhabit from now on"

Liam said from the side as he emerged in a smaller form next to Villar's figure. Shrouded in a dazzling golden light with the two glowing eyes staring down intently.

"The true place..."

Villar murmured back with a sense of loss and yet fascinated at the same time.

"Then, our previous world... Was it all for a test?"

It was just a hunch, but he felt it was the truth.

No matter how you looked at it. From the very first encounter till this point. Everything appeared to be a test.

The test of will.

The test of heart.

And the teat for qualification to be in this true world.

"Indeed it was..."

Liam nodded back to answer his confusion.

Clearing up the murky clouds within his mind as he continued to ask.

"Then... By my people that you had mentioned before... Does that mean-"

"Yes, the sinful one and the favored one. All of your people will live in this world from now on"

Liam interrupted Villar's words in the middle.

But the meaning that Liam just conveyed instantly shocked Villar.

"A-all?"

"Yes, but at a different treatment."

"T-this... My lord. I don't understand "

"It's simple "

Liam smiled faintly under the cover of the light veil.

"The favored one will live like usual. With the normal lifespan and the normal life that your people had been accustomed to"

"T-then... The sinful one?"

Villar asked worriedly.

He had never thought of such an outcome.

His initial thought was that those sinful people will be eradicated from existence. At the very least, they don't have to experience the pain of the living.

But Liam's words just now instantly crushed all of his prior assumptions.

Hearing Villar's words, Liam simply tore the space next to them.

*boom!*

"Arghhh!!!??"

"Arghh! hurrmmm!!!!!"

"Garhhh!"

And what appeared in his sight would be a scene of a hellish nightmare.

A large number of humans were covered in wounds and large gashes.

Consuming each other alive as they fought like a beast. Crawling on their 4 limbs as they gnashed their teeth onto those fleshes.

Bloody, immoral, and cruel.

"W-what happened to them, my lord?"

Villar fearfully asked with a terrified expression on his face. What a horrible scene this was.

A sight that he had never seen before. And none other will be able to see unlike him.
