The Zenithal's Act

The fallen squirmed in pain as he fell down to the ground. Mikael, angered by his fallen brother's blasphemy towards their Father, kicked him forward until he reached the middle of the Temple.

Looking up, Lucifer saw the judging and hating looks of the remaining divinities within the Holy Temple. He felt as if he was being looked down upon, which was his most hated feeling.

The Three Princes of Creation flew to the platform where they were originally on and gazed at the miserable thing below.

Everyone was situated above him, causing him to feel uncomfortable as the judging looks assaulted his soul. "No.. no.. Stop it.." He muttered.

Clang! Clang!

From the outside, thousands of golden armored, bident wielding beings whose aura was far greater than a lot of the golden cloaked divinities marched inside in two lines. Between their lines were the captured rebel divinities that escaped a while ago, now chained together in a one, huge group.

"The Heavenly Army..!" Mikael gasped. The Heavenly Army was an angelic army directly under the Great Father's command, comprised of angels that are of equal standing with them. For them to have come out meant that all the problems must have already been solved.

Pak!

The angels of the Heavenly Army kicked the captives to the ground violently, awaiting the Master's judgment.

"They have transgressed the laws of creation which I have proclaimed to all since the first era of creation. Lucifer Morningstar, previously one of the Princes of Creation, coveted the Throne of Holiness, not to guide creation but to impose his rule over all. Aldarath Setherium, Fallen Master of the Fallen Fetik Universe, overstepped his bounds and insulted the prestige of the holiest…" The man's voice enumerated all the conceivable sins that every single one of the rebels have done throughout.

"..With all that is said, I hereby punish them." Radiating from the Crystal Gates, a mysterious force slowly enveloped every sinners. As the light coming from the Crystal Gates shone upon them, their skins started slightly burning, making them suffer through excruciating pain whilst also waiting for the judgment to fall on them.

"I declare that all who joined the rebellion against Me be banished from the Holy Temple for eternity."

"All of them shall be ruined by their own sins."

"They shall suffer from eternal damnation."

"They, the embodiment of betrayal, cowardice, deceit, and cruelty, be damned."

"Lucifer. Vermin, evil, prideful, prejudiced, ambitious fool. Be cursed with eternal perfection and the desire to rule."

"Your desire to rule shall be destined to be fruitless, for you shall be feared by all, even by your subjects. No one would dare be near you even despite your beauty and flawlessness. All of existence would feel disgust, repulsion, and abhorrence to you. Anyone who dares to follow you shall suffer the same fate as you."

"Vermins of the universe, be gone from the Sacred Holy Temple, my abode, for you are not welcomed here!" The voice shouted with a mighty roar after announcing the rebels' punishment, "Wait for the destined hour of your demise."

After saying that, the ground that they were on turned into dark clouds, and all the traitors fell into the depths of the cosmos, roaming the now ruined universes and suffering in the process.

Next, everyone that remained within felt a gaze coming from the Crystal Gates focus on them, "To thee who stayed loyal, rejoice and be rewarded!"

Accordingly, the Loyalists and the Princes of Creation knelt down and did what was ordered to them.

With their hands raised up, they bowed and rejoiced.

"Glory, Glory, Glory to you, Highest of Most High! You who created all that there was, is, and yet to come!"

"You who bestowed creation Mercy and Goodwill! Glory, Glory, Glory to you, Highest of Most High!"

"You who do not cradle and spoil your sons and daughters, You who teach them to stand up on their feet amidst the sufferings, Glory, Glory, Glory to you, Highest of Most High!"

"You who showed not cruelty nor spite to those who went against you, but chance to renew their Faith in you, Glory, Glory, Glory to you, Highest of Most High!"

"Blessed is all who submits to you! May we be rewarded for days and years and centuries and millennia to come!"

Whilst they were doing this, numerous halos flew from within the Crystal Gates and hovered behind their backs. Paired with everyone's gifts were golden keys shining with brilliance and knowledge.

"To the Masters of the Fallen Universes who, despite their stature, offered themselves and their authority unto me with full trust and faith, I give you crowns of light made from the divine jewels of my kingdom. Let it be known that you sided with Truth and stayed forthright until the very end."

"Jeremiah Eleison, Acting Master of the Mathos Universe, showed honesty and brilliance in leadership. I give you my blessings…"

In what seemed like an instant, every single one of their names were called upon and with it, their rewards were bequeathed upon them.

With the blessings granted to them, and feeling the power that they now possess, every single one of the divinities groveled and gave their thanks, "We are blessed by just being in Thy presence! We thank Thee Almighty for giving us these gifts!"

The voice then spoke once more, now giving gifts to the Princes of Creation. One by one, they were called and given their blessings.

"Prince Gabriel, you showed true leadership, remaining calm despite being besieged at all fronts, placing your trust in My Power and Will whilst also depending on your skills. I give you my blessings."

"Prince Mikael, you showed valiance, bravery, and great skills of power and weaponry, fighting to the very end. I give you my blessings."

"Prince Raphiel, you showed kindness and support in healing your brothers. Your effort is commendable. I give you my blessings."

Similar to the others, the three Princes gave their thanks to Him, "We are blessed by just being in Thy presence! We thank Thee Almighty for giving us these gifts!"

"The blessings have been given to all. Everyone can temporarily stay within the Holy Temple."

"Temporarily?" Everyone voiced out their confusion.
