Human God's intervention

3rd Pov

The newly built Citadel of Roa was a place of life and vitality. The old City walls that had been crumbled down were replaced with new humungous one. At the Centre of the city there was a church for the Goddess Minerva and the newly established religion, it had just a few people as of now but the entire population was entitled to follow the new Religion.

Although a bit skeptical, many of the people didn't hesitate much to change from Millis to Sophia, the name of the new religion. It had doctrines written by Goddess Minerva herself, which were much more profound and lenient to commoners than Millis. The new ruler promised a place where commoners weren't treated as nobodies before, where even commoners could study and become ministers.

A place which was controlled by their King Arthur, the one chosen to represent Goddess Minerva. Afterall the Miracles she had did ensnared countless followers who had nowhere to go after the teleportation incident to believe in her and slowly convert to her religion. As of now, many of the people believed that following their King and the Goddess who descended herself, was right choice even if it meant betraying the Kingdom.

The new policies had made commoners even more grateful towards Minerva, who was getting more followers day by day. Something that had been noticed by the Holy Kingdom, and Hitogami. Infact in this involving war, secret meetings of alliance were being held, the force against Arthur and Minerva on a rapid increase in numbers, the God of Humanity planning his own schemes.

Although as of now, many people all over the world didn't knew about what was to unfold, they could feel that a uneasy peace was going on. The hidden schemes that threatened to uproot the newly germinating Kingdom, and religion were of no concern to their King and Goddess. They were already aware of most of the schemes and threats, but what could they do to them? Who were real Deities?

Thus, the city was carefree as their Rulers, as a group of Nobles entered through the Main Gates. "M'Lady this is dangerous, please reconsider it", said Derrick while sweating with nervousness and fear, even the Knight who was covered in Armor of the topmost quality or the Nobles wearing the finest of clothes had the same expression, but the young woman remained unfazed, as they reached before the luxurious Mansion, where the new King himself resided.

" There is no need for you to follow me, if you aren't with my decision. I declare it, you all can leave me if you fear and are scared~ But! Never show me your pathetic face again if you dare to do so!", she replied in a sweet voice, chilling most of the Nobles. Suddenly some Golems walked towards them, scaring the Nobles who had never seen such monstrosities. 

Ariel with a smile, and graceful steps walked forward, her eyes looking at the Golems with excitement as they stopped before her. " STATE YOUR REASON FOR VISITING AND YOUR IDENTITY", the Golem asked, scaring others even more but Ariel performed a small bow and said," I am Ariel Anemoi Asura, the second princess of Asura Kingdom and I am here to have an audience with his Majesty, If I might~ For an Alliance!"

The Golems paused and a few seconds passed, the silence made Nobles even feel more uneasy, the thoughts of them being squashed like bugs the next moment filled their minds, Luke grabbed the hilt of his sword ready to decimate the opponents if they were to attack Ariel. But the girl in question scoffed at their cowardice and thought,' If he wanted us to die, then we wouldn't have been able to enter within the premises of the city in the first place '.

But she remained silent, not speaking her real thoughts aloud patiently waiting for the reply. " King Arthur have accepted your request to have audience with him", the Golem replied easing the breathing of the Nobles, in fact the lineup of Nobles behind Ariel was quite significant no matter how you look. Whether it was two of the Five Great Families Notos and Eurus or other major Nobles behind them.

Yes, Ariel managed to ensnare Eurus family's head's support from her second brother, due to his weak will for throne and gathered a formidable support from the other Nobles. Infact she could go against toe to toe with her Eldest brother as of now, not having to fear him like the Original timeline. Yet as of now, she was ready to betray her Kingdom, as for what purpose?

" You shall come in", said the Golem as the door opened, Ariel walked inside, others tried to follow her but they were stopped the next moment by Golems who surrounded them, Derrick clenched his fists while Luke who impulsively tried to strike a Golem, but it easily grabbed it at a rapid speed," Let my son go!!", said Pilemon Notos with fear. The Golem replied," You all shall stay here, till the Lord has finished talking with her".

In the end they were forced to stay in their place, surrounded by Golems everywhere while Luke within the grasp of the Golems.

...

Inside Ariel didn't reacted much when the door behind her closed, with a graceful smile on her face she continued walking forward when her body teleported next moment surprising her a bit, and she was before Arthur who was sitting lazily on his throne." Your Majesty, I greet you", she said as she quickly performed a Noble and graceful bow.

" Leave the formality, state forward your reasons", Arthur's face suddenly became series, his voice cold and threatening. On this Ariel's gaze wavered down, or so it seemed as a blush spreaded throughout her cheeks as she knelt before him, lowering her position even further. " Lord Arthur, I am willing to provide you whatever help needed to win against Asura Kingdom, and this time I desire nothing in return", she said.

" Lies", Arthur said coldly, and she trembled, " Ye-Yes, I do wish to become your concubine, or maid, or anything else if that's fine with you, Your Majesty", she replied with anticipation and fear of rejection while Arthur meanwhile looked her a bit weirdly,' Well she is masochist as well as sadistic, but never thought I will see a fucking thirteen year old like this ', he thought.

' Well dear, in this world people mature faster ', Minerva said in Arthur's mind and he agreed, he then looked at her, she was apparently a Sadistic due to her childhood and later discovered she was a masochistic as well, after being hurt by Sylphie who was self-defending herself, from the lecherous her. It didn't took Arthur much thought recalling the past events, realizing where she became like this.

" Hmm, I have much better option that that, I shall make you the Prime Minister of my Kingdom and you shall govern under me", he said making her slightly disappointed but she quickly hid. " I am grateful for your magnanimity, Your Majesty", she replied and Arthur further said," Also, I can already guess you want to support me with the armies of the Nobles who have followed you here, I shall say it is unnecessary, you just have to convert them into Sophia religion and hand over their territories, and we shall discuss in detail later on".

She nodded agreeing with him, after a while she left the place, returning back to the mansion in the newly built Citadel of Roa and once she returned, she witnessed the scene of Luke being in the grasp of a Golem and she snorted,' Useless Knight, if you are not the son and successor of Notos family, I wouldn't have agreed to hire such a mediocre knight ', she thought.

Meanwhile Nobles breathed in relief on her return," M'Lady!", Derrick said in a nervous tone, the Golems suddenly started moving backwards giving the trapped Nobles space, and the Golem holding Luke, left the hold of him causing him to fall down. " Luke!", Pilemon Notos quickly got near him and started checking upon his unconscious son and breathed in relief realizing he was safe.

Meanwhile Ariel fell in a problematic situation, ' Hmm, I did got them here on the promise of getting more territory and power by betraying the Kingdom and joining the mighty King Arthur, but after hearing his words and reading his policies, I can discern that he won't let them thrive and reward with anything... Well I can just lie for now! After talking with him three days later, I can plan for our next moves ', she thought.

" Derrick I am fine", she said to her worried retainer, who could just observe her from a distance not daring to touch her, after all the last man who touched her was beheaded by her. She had went even crazier after the event with the Arthur last time. " I have a good news for us, King Arthur has agreed to our requests, though there are some alternations which actually benefit us instead, and some other things we have to do according to his order", she said much to the joy of other Nobles.

They all were greedy for more power and wealth. While the sudden decision of Ariel baffled many considering her faction was now just slightly weaker than First Prince's but the alluring promises she made to them, managed to ensnare them in this act of betrayal towards the Kingdom. But again, given the fact that despite the Military prowess of Asura Kingdom, King Arthur actually had better chances of winning.

Nothing was better for these power hungry Nobles to be on winning side, and adding to the harm they can provide to the Kingdom if they betrayed, they understood that who will in such a case, not to mention there was a reason they were following Ariel, she was smart, cunning and decisive and managed to gather a formidable force against the First Prince, under unfavorable situations, thus her decision was seemingly right for them.

" Good, now we shall depart and quickly proceed with the tasks His Majesty has given to us!", she said, and they agreed finally breathing in relief as they left the premises of the mansion. While they were dreaming of a promising future, unknown to them they were but disposable pawns, that she managed to brainwash, existing for the sole purpose of Ariel to stand by Arthur's side.

...

In a place where nothing was present but a seemingly infinite expanse of white, clouded with a deary fog lived a being made from the Evil himself. Hitogami, the one who usurped the Human God and his powers, now the new Human God was troubled by recent events. He had managed to find out that there were otherworlders in this world.

One was Arthur and Minerva whom he was unaware of until the teleport accident, third being Nanahoshi who teleported in this world with the mana calamity. They were variable that he must solve sooner , especially Arthur considering his prowess and growth and Minerva, he could leave Nanahoshi to be dealt later on, but he had to deal with the two.

' They also managed to destroy my control over other humans ', Hitogami thought a bit scared, since they or rather Minerva managed to do something which he thought to be impossible. She had shielded Arthur's women from his Authority, one that could let him command humans as mere puppets, one that creates reverence the moment they glimpse upon him, for he was their progenitor in this world, the Human God.

"*sigh* I have left no choice but to take serious measures, if only I had known sooner but nothing can be done now, I shall get them kill when they are still weaker than me! ", he muttered to himself, not realizing a certain possibility. He waved his hands and the illusory body of several people appeared before him. " Lord", they said and bowed lightly.

He nodded and said," My Apostles I have a task of great importance for you all!", and then started explaining them about their plans and their roles. Finally hours later he returned their soul to their body, with a grin in his face," Now let the game begin", he said as he used his Authority, creating even more trouble for Arthur.
