[95] God's Army

[2800 Words]

------------------------------------------

The Grand Line, Paradise.

In Skypiea, specifically in a grand house on Angel Island.

A tall man with blue hair could be seen sitting on the couch, his expression serious as if lost in thought about something.

Suddenly, the man, naturally Ren, stood up and conjured a bottle out of thin air.

"So, this is the Pegasus dose," Ren murmured, looking at the dose in his hand.

It was a small glass bottle, transparent with a strange-colored liquid inside, the merging colors giving a feeling as if staring into a tremendous and mysterious power. Ren felt as if he were gazing at the origin of the universe at that moment, his soul trembling without apparent reason, or perhaps there was a reason he didn't know?

Anyway, he took out another bottle from the infinity space, the Pegasus Warrior dose used on the three heavenly races.

It resembled the Pegasus doses (used on horses), the only difference being the shape of the glass bottle, allowing for slight differentiation because they shared almost the same color.

Afterward, Ren activated the "Cold Heart" skill. Once he thought of the skill and said "activate" mentally, changes occurred in his heart and mind.

He felt the world silent.

As if nothing mattered in this world.

No one, no human or animal, no creature, nothing really mattered.

Ren remained in this strange situation for several seconds, feeling perplexed...

Suddenly, an idea came to his mind to understand this skill better.

For this, he thought of killing all his crew members and girlfriends , and the result was...

He felt nothing, appearing indifferent and accepting of this idea in his mind.

He still wasn't willing to kill them even after "thinking" about it, but there was no resistance from his heart.

The only resistance came from his "logic" that still thought reasonably. Fortunately, this skill didn't affect the mind as well, otherwise, he wouldn't have even felt this small resistance coming from his mind.

He sighed cold breaths and sat on the couch, then canceled the skill.

"Haah..." He sighed heavily, his forehead trembling slightly. Immediately after canceling the skill, he found his back drenched in sweat.

Fear, the fear of this skill.

"These are some dangerous things, Miss System..." Ren muttered softly, but Miss System could still hear him.

[...]

The latter remained silent and didn't respond, then a deadly silence filled the room while Ren continued to contemplate the "Cold Heart" skill.

This skill made him a monster with a cold-blooded demeanor, perhaps it was like that, but only with strangers, yet this skill made him like that even with his loved ones...

"Fortunately, no matter how cold the heart becomes, my unaffected mind can compensate for these side effects." After the calmness, Ren analyzed the pros and cons of this skill.

And undoubtedly, the positives were much more.

Firstly, he would be able to make the most logical decisions in difficult situations when needed, ensuring that he wouldn't miss out due to some foolish decisions stemming from his temporary emotions.

And secondly, he could resist most women's temptations when in a "Cold Heart" state, as he called it, so there was no fear of falling into honey traps.

As for the negatives, there weren't many, just the lack of concern for his loved ones, which the mind compensated for. If the heart didn't care, the mind could care for his loved ones instead.

And it's not like he would activate this skill all the time, so there were almost no side effects.

.

[Half a day later]

.

Nightfall arrived in Skypiea, but this island never knew sleep, it was still as bustling as during the day, no, even more so.

There was a high party! First, because of the fall of the tyrant and killer god, and secondly, because of the rise of the new god.

Lord Ren!

Amidst the people's clamor on Angel Island and Lovely Street, discussions and rumors spread about this new god from every nook and cranny, and those who were in the square at that time said what they saw to the absentees, and rumors circulated about how handsome the new god was and his mercy, etc.

"He's a tall man with blue hair and extremely handsome... and he has a magnificent and sharp presence!"

"I heard he defeated Enel in one punch, did you know?!"

"It's said that the girls with him are angels from heaven!"

"Do you believe this nonsense?!"

"Whatever it is! You have to see Lord Ren first to judge for yourself!"

"Lord Ren is extremely wonderful!"

"And handsome too!"

....

While Skypians discussed Ren enthusiastically and shared their personal opinions about him, the person in question Ren—sat in an unfamiliar place.

He was at a high altitude from the sky, specifically in the temple of the god residing in Giant Jack.

....

He sat quietly on a throne adorned with gold, situated in a spacious hall carpeted with red rugs, while the ancient walls gave a distinctive atmosphere of pressure and power.

Ren closed his eyes calmly as he leaned his head on his hand and crossed one leg over the other, his towering personality and casual demeanor exuding a strange and unknown pressure to the occupants in the room.

Around him, there were two blond servants, one standing to his right and the other to his left, looking ahead calmly and acting more like personal guards than maids.

But there was something strange about these two maids.

The pressure they exerted... was majestic and strange.

Several hours ago, they were just ordinary maids selected to serve the new god, as Enel was going mad and killing all his servants with his lightning strikes, leading to a shortage of staff in the god's temple.

So, Gan Fall had to recruit some women from Angel Island, and of course, it wasn't mandatory; the women willingly agreed to serve the new god.

"You girls have become really strong," Ren Said .

He looked at the first one, a girl with white-blond hair, her eyebrows sharp and yellow, while her eyes sparkled in a luxurious golden color.

As for her features, she had a beautiful and extremely symmetrical face, with plump lips and a small, slightly upturned nose giving her a cute appearance, but the sharp gaze in her eyes said otherwise.

This was Angela, a 20-year-old girl from Skypiea.

[Image of Angela here]

Angela wore a royal white armor from the Middle Ages, crafted by Ren thanks to his "God of Weapons" skill.

This skill wasn't limited to creating firearms only; anything usable for combat was considered a weapon, so the royal armor fell under this category as well.

It didn't cost him much, just a few million berries; he had more than a billion and he would get another billion, so money wasn't a problem.

The conditions for making the armor were very easy, as Ren already had general knowledge about the armor used in the Middle Ages in Europe, especially in the battles of the Western Roman Empire against the Eastern kingdoms.

Returning to the maids, besides Angela, there was another woman standing on his left.

She appeared more radiant than Angela, and her calm demeanor confirmed that. Her golden hair cascaded behind her back, covering her alluring rear.

She possessed golden-greenish eyes, making you wonder if she had any blood relation with Angela, as she was originally a larger version of her.

This woman was called Angelina, she was Angela's older sister and was 25 years old.

[Image of Angelina here]

She wore a royal white and golden armor like her sister, and the two sisters stood quietly on either side of Ren's throne.

"All of this is thanks to Lord Ren, my sister and I gained this power."

A magical and ethereal voice emanated from Angelina's mouth, speaking with a tone of gratitude, worship, and love, which was the duty of believers towards their "god" after all.

"That's right, my lord," Angela agreed with her older sister's words, and a small smile spread across her face.

That's right, Ren had used the Pegasus Warrior dose on them, not just one but five.

Since he had 200 Pegasus Warrior dosages, he experimented with them first before deciding to distribute them.

First, he tried a single dose on one of the former god's Army prisoners, and the result was that the person's body couldn't bear the latent power behind the dose, leading to their explosion into a pile of flesh and blood.

Ren didn't stop after this and didn't care about the prisoner's death; he had plenty of experimental subjects anyway.

But he didn't want to waste too many doses without any benefit, so he now asked Miss System about the reason for the prisoner's explosion, and her answer was:

¶[Perhaps that person possesses the pure blood of the three celestial races. It must be the result of a marriage between a person from these races with someone from the Blue Sea.]

After reading Miss System's explanation, everything became clear to Ren. Was it just his bad luck that made him lose a Pegasus Warrior dose?

After a short mourning, Ren chose the strongest prisoners who had been captured, and of course, they were the four priests.

So, he tried the Pegasus Warrior dosage on them, and this time, the experiment was successful, creating the first Pegasus Warrior in The world.

All four priests, Satori, Ohm, Shura, and Gedatsu, had taken the Pegasus Warrior dosage and underwent numerous physical and mental changes.

Their bodies grew and their muscle mass developed, even Satori, who resembled a ball of fat, changed and became tall and muscular.

Also, their white wings turned red, and their short length and small size changed completely, becoming demonic wings soaked in blood.

Ren created special armor for them, covering their entire bodies. The armor was white, well-defined in shape, and included a head mask with only two openings for the priests' eyes to see the world through.

After reviewing their statistics, Ren decided they would become the new God army priests, Pegasus priests.

He had someone in mind to be his deputy for his own God's Army, He wouldn't always be in Skypiea, so he needed someone to manage things for him there.

Anyway, after the experiment with Pegasus warriors on the priests succeeded, Ren decided it was time to try something else, giving a dose to an ordinary person from the three races.

The experiment succeeded, and 50 of them, called "Pegasus soldiers," were produced. Unlike Pegasus priests, Pegasus soldiers were weaker, with longer and larger wings like the priests, but they were white and purple instead of the priests' red color. As usual, Ren made armor for them that suited their identities as Pegasus soldiers.

The group of 50 Pegasus soldiers was divided into 40 males and 10 females. The female armor was comfortable to wear, allowing for unhindered movement, and provided good defense against regular bullets.

While the male armor was the same shape as the female armor, it was tailored to fit the male physique, but there was no difference even in defense.

These armors, along with the priest and Angelina and Angela's armors, cost approximately 100 million 𝕭, but that was still within Ren's expectations.

After successfully producing an army of 50 Pegasus soldiers and four priests leading them, Ren tried something else. He forced a prisoner to take 5 doses at once, but a terrifying scene occurred afterward.

The prisoner's body melted, replaced by a strange substance of the same color as the contents of the bottle, as if the prisoner's flesh and blood had turned into this mysterious substance.

Ren still had 141 doses of Pegasus warriors left and decided to stop these experiments because he didn't want to lose any more doses.

But system intervened. This was the second time she had intervened to advise him on something, the first time being at Baratie restaurant when she screamed in his mind not to kill Lorena, and this time was the second.

She told him that there were three people on this island who could handle 5 doses at once, and it so happened that they were all people he knew.

Two of them were Angelina and her sister Angela. After consuming more than 5 doses of Pegasus warriors, they gained tremendous strength and a beautiful appearance as side effects on women who took this dose.

And the other person was someone he knows.

"Lord, Conis-sama requests entry," Angelina said in a sweet and beautiful voice, while her calm expression filled the throne room.

Angelina and Angela managed to see that Conis was coming to Ren's location using their own mantras, which they awakened after drinking tht dose, Conis was only a few meters away, so they informed their master to receive her.

Although they guessed that the lord already knew she was coming, that didn't stop them from reporting it. That was their job after all.

Ren knew what Angelina and Angela were thinking, but he raised his hand and said, "No need to move, she's already here."

After saying this, he felt a presence behind the throne room door. The door opened, and a blond-haired girl appeared.

*Bam*

*Bam*

With the sound of the armor hitting the ground, Angelina and Angela knelt on the ground when they saw the approaching figure.

"We greet Bishop Conis-sama."

"We greet Bishop Conis-sama."

The sisters said in unison, their eyes mysterious. The girl in front of them was the second in command after the god!

Conis looked calmly at the kneeling maids, but in her mind, she was extremely disturbed. She had never been used to such treatment.

Since Ren had left the room hours ago and talked to his crew members, who quickly returned to their ship after he gave them some things Conis didn't know about, then Raki took her leave immediately and returned to her tribe with Aisa, she found herself alone with Ren.

A lot had happened quickly, and for some reason, she went to the temple with Ren. She didn't know why at first, but she began to understand everything!

Bishop Conis? So she would become directly second in rank after the god? Wait, we didn't agree on this!

But, by some means or power, she drank those five doses with their heavenly taste, and underwent several physical and psychological changes.

Psychologically, she felt more confident than she had ever been, and found herself able to calm down quickly and excel in hiding her feelings.

And physically, well...she underwent several changes.

Her white wings had grown slightly larger, even becoming whiter. Her hair had also grown longer, seeming to settle on a light blonde color.

Her sapphire-blue eyes gave a strange sense of danger and power, while the white armor she wore added another layer of strength and mystery to her appearance.

[Conis Image.]

"Did you summon me, my lord?" Conis asked calmly, she was still embarrassed by his addressing her like this, only able to look at his face, which had turned slightly red.

"C'mon, Conis, didn't I tell you not to call me that when we're alone?" Ren looked at her with feigned annoyance, it seems it was time to finish the task and turn the Gasha wheel.

"But there are the servants-"

"Enough... I'll close your mouth then."

Ren tapped on his throne and rose quietly, his steps were slow at first, but then he quickly appeared in front of Conis.

*Kiss*

Conis's eyes widened as she felt Ren's lips press against hers.

Her initial reaction was resistance, but it seems her body didn't want that, she quickly lost herself in the pleasure of the kiss while Angela and Angelina watched the scene with flushed faces but calm expressions.

Cough... We're not eavesdropping or anything like that, we're just doing our job of "preserving the god's safety," as "sisters."

Yes... There's nothing else, just fulfilling our duty.

While the sisters justified their eavesdropping to themselves, Ren finally broke the kiss from Conis's completely red face.

He looked at her deeply, and before he could speak, a weak voice came out from her lips: "W-we shouldn't do this... you have Nami-san and-"

"Ahhnn..♡~"

Before she could finish her sentence, Ren sealed another kiss onto her lips, forcing her to fall silent.
