Chapter 147 - Crusade part 1

Silence resounded through the whole battlefield that was littered with barely alive individuals. The enemy soldiers were extremely baffled looking at the two enormous individuals wearing heavily thick armor.

One bask in golden armory with an eagle and divine motif throughout its suit of armor emanating a holy light that baffled those superstitious. He has defined jawline and long flowing dark hair with what seems to be a golden halo behind its head. At his hand wielded a flaming sword and the other was an enormous claw.

The other basking darkness soaked in blood has a motif of simplicity yet complexity that is made from seemingly fleshy materials that endlessly moves ever so slightly.

He appeared to be a weathered and rough middle aged man with a beard and a defined jaw but not as much as the one beside him. At his hand was a blade that was clearly made from flesh that horrifies everyone.

"Heed our warning, cease this heresy and face our judgement."

A booming voice exploded throughout the battlefield causing the soldier to quiver in fear and awe. They were mere normal soldiers that hardly have any way to resist a divine presence making them fall in their knees.

God Emperor Clone raised his blade and smited armored tanks as if it was nothing. He made sure to kill the one who had a terrible sin that fell into dark temptation. He was concerned that the chances of those chaos gods to be born would be troublesome considering it was possible for a god to be born as long as numerous lives had been accumulated to birth a god.

Take for example, Earth from Vandalieu's verse had created god because of accumulated beliefs of life. Though due to not having a single belief system causes all of those gods to fuse, appearing like an eldritch form of all the mythological gods.

"I'm amazed that this woman is still alive….hmm oh! She has my divine protection."

The clone exclaimed sensing a piece of himself was within the young woman who was rather strong and seemingly devoted in fighting. He pondered the idea to make her a Primarch and quickly healed her as well as the other soldier who was barely alive.

"I-Identify yourself!? Who are you!?"

One brave enemy soldier asked them while pointing the mounted mini gun directed at the God Emperor Clone. They were still shocked at how their tanks were sliced like butter and barely able to process everything.

The clone summoned a few [ Daemon ] kneeling for him, scaring the enemy soldier seeing that strange individual appeared out of thin air kneeling before the dark one like god.

"Greetings my lord, What service do you wish for us to do?"

"Bring the wounded soldier in a safe place while making sure to treat this one with care."

He pointed to the unconscious woman before his servant nodded and did as told. They spread evenly and took the wounded soldier towards the headquarters of the soldier. One would assume it would be dangerous as they can be seen as a threat but a [ Daemon ] cannot die so long Ryuu exists.

Their souls endlessly reincarnate within the [ Warp Inner World ]. It means that Ryuu's own body has a Circle of Reincarnation similar to the Demon king guduranis has made where the [ Daemon ] would retain their previous memory at the cause of losing their previous ability.

This makes them unable to fear death but it is rather frustrating for them to start back up. Regardless if it's for their creator then they won't feel bothered and actually overjoyed to give their life for their god.

The clone finished his command and turned towards the one who asked who they were. He normally feels hesitant to act like a godly being but it would be for the best.

"I am Yaldabaoth, what I am is a god who brought forth damnation for the sinners and cleansed this land into a new order!"

"I am the God Emperor of Mankind, What I seek to show the right path to bring humanity through the sky and above. Unifying the world as whole."

Both of them prepared for battle to show their might and ignoring that this soldier is nothing more than a mob. This is a tedious and gruesome process but the result would be a prosperous future for mankind.

Their words were baffling, viewing them as crazy individuals but seeing how tall and towering they were made them feel immense amounts of fear.

"Those who wish salvation stand before me and begin our crusade! You shall be my first legion of Adeptus Astartes or rather my Space Marines!"

"Those who refuse stand before me and shall face damnation! You shall be the first of my Chaos legion!!"

The soldiers were given two choices with one more appealing than the other. He knew that his action would begin to make the gods of his world descend and stop him but the risk would be dire for them.

They were enticed by their words wavering in their spirit. The two aimed for the God Emperor of Mankind to acquire guidance for his great unification for humans. He hoped to gain Zakkart's [ United Guider ] that he had.

It was then that a younger soldier who disliked conflict had dropped their weapon and walked towards the God Emperor Clone. They were about to kneel but were stopped by him.

"No need to kneel, all of you have accepted this sacred task. You all shall be Adeptus Astartes, go forth and begin your metamorphosis."

He opened a portal into the facility where they would be turned into space marine and wear power armor. It would be his public forces while the [ Daemon ] for when the planet is too hostile.

Ryuu was in the process of making Tyranid but it was still difficult to produce such a powerful alien race.

"You traitors!? Do you all have no shame in what you're doing!!?"

"This is sullying the name of our beloved country!?"

Roared by the remaining soldier who refused to kneel down and had strong beliefs that it nullified the enticement. The clone was impressed by their conviction and love for their country yet it hardly meant anything when they were dead.

They soon opened fire towards them causing the soldier to quiver in fear but the bullets were halted in the air and saw the God Emperor Clone reach out his hand stopping them with [ Divine Hivemind magic ]. It does contain the [ No-attribute magic ] from the numerous people he had.

"We have given you a chance and now you all shall die."

He said before forming a Light Laser cannon that sliced through their armored artillery and decimated the enemy soldier. Loud explosion were produces as attack ignited their bombs and missiled before wailing of pain agony soon came.

God Emperor then held his gun and blasted the enemy line while going full on sprint towards them where the soldier tried open fire but it hardly fazed him as each bullet was deflected by the thick aura that he had.

Those soldiers who gave themselves up were horrified yet glad that they had given up seeing that their once fellow allies had no chances of winning against such a monster.

"You all please head into the portal where you'll become stronger and better but be worn. Those who betray us shall receive punishment but those who gave their loyalty shall prosper."

"W-We vow not to betray you and the God Emperor!"

"Good then head to this portal."

Ignoring the scream of their former allies, they step inside the portal and are greeted by a facility where people that had cybernetic enhancement helped them start the process of turning them into Adeptus Astartes.

Back to the Yaldabaoth clone who turned his attention to the enemy and joined in with his other clones starting their divine crusade against this treacherous country.

"W-Wait I surrender!"

"Too bad, I've already given you a chance."

A soldier tried to plead but was met with Yaldabaoth cruelty being slice by the Necronsword before devouring the biomass of soldier and continued their reign of terror until the back up the allied soldier were greeted by the blood soak land and endless scream of terror.

Those witness the historical event where a Dark lord and Divine god was present standing before the defeated enemy. The sight caused those devotees to see this instantly and thought that a god had descended to do divine retribution.
