Feeling the wrath of the God of light in the sky, the people of Elias could help but believe what Almeron was saying was the truth. And Almeron sensing their change of mood knew it was time to hit the nail on the head.
Increasing the tone of his voice he continued speaking
"Just when I was about to give up, I got told an oracle dictating the future of Elias!"
pαпdα-ňᴏνê|·сóМ After taking a slight pause, Almeron revealed the oracle
"When the three sources are born, a new era of Ragnarok shall rise"
"and from a new world, with new knowledge the human king shall take the world by surprise"
"the stars shall dim"
"and the sky shall weep"
"In this era of Gods fall"
"there is no peaceful sleep"
Listening to the oracle's components, the crowd was in disbelief
Although they didn't know what most of the oracle meant, hearing the words 'Gods fall' left all of them shook,
thinking of this, the heads of the major races who were watching the execution Immediately decided to hold a meeting as they sensed the coming turmoil from Almerons words.
However unknown to everyone, while everyone was busy arguing and discussing the oncoming future, two humans somewhere unknown in Elias looked towards the sky with melancholy
"Hehe~ so that old man still has some moves" spoke a robed figure in a hoarse voice making it unable to tell his gender.
Beside him was another robed figure at this time two of them sat in a lotus position discussing Almeron on stage
"Demon don't laugh, after all, he is still one of us, and judging from his character, he's definitely not one to die easy" said the other robed figure
"Haha heretic relax, you're always so serious, who doesn't know what that old bastard is like, he definitely can't die after all I still have to kill him"
Hearing them speak, it was obvious that these two were the heads of the house of heretics and the house of demons, a hidden family among the humans
Judging from the tone of the one called demon, although always laughing, the tone of concern in his voice could not be hidden as he looked at Almeron in the sky
"Sigh… just let him go, after all he must have his own plans. It's not up to us to interfere plus we have more important issues to address"
"What do you think of this 'human king' mentioned in the prophecy?
With a slight Heretic tried to change the topic as he brought up an important matter, and demon hearing the words 'human king' suddenly fell silent
"It seems that we humans are definitely going to be at the forefront of this oncoming change, I just wonder if it's good or bad"
"However let's continue watching, who knows what other things that idiot Almeron has in store for us"
Saying that Demon motioned for him and heretic to continue watching the execution, thankfully just when they looked up was when Almeron continued speaking.
Looking at the crowd below, Almeron had a Sense of satisfaction and accomplishment as about half of his plan had been completed
*Boom!*
*Boom!*
*Boom!*
Just when he was admiring his foresight and planning, the barrier surrounding freedom town suddenly trembled three more times causing cracks to appear all around it
*It seems the God of light is getting impatient, I guess I'll have to hurry it up"
Noticing the cracks, Almeron Immediately sped up his speech, so clearing his throat he burst out into a hearty laugh once again attracting everyone's attention.
"Haha races of Elias, did you hear it? It says 'this era of God's fall!' Do you know what this means?"
"Haha it means the Gods will fall!!!"
Hearing him say this, the millions of eyes looking at him at this moment couldn't help but go wide, how dare someone say the Gods would fall so blatantly,
This was something just yesterday they could even fathom happening, but now seeing someone doing the impossible right before them, they couldn't help but admire Almerons craziness Abit, he who dared to openly say something against God
However, it just that Almeron didn't care about whether they admired him or not, as his mind was on how to finish his speech before the barrier broke
"That's why the gods are afraid, they're afraid that we'll have enough power to knock them from their high thrones and make them fall!!"
"Aren't I right your majesty God of light"
Looking toward the sky Almeron said somewhat sarcastically
Unfortunately, the God of light in the sky didn't say anything to him but continued bombarding the shield
Seeing this Almeron knew any methods to try and distract his attention would work, so without paying any more attention to the God of light in the sky, he continued speaking
"Imagine if all races got my research and each of you possessed the power to slay Gods?"
"Imagine if each of you had the power to move mountains and reclaim the sea?"
"Imagine if each of you were immortal like me and could live to the end of time!"
As Almeron spoke, his body seemed to emit a strange fluctuation enhancing the desires and emotions of all those watching him both in freedom town and not in freedom town
And just like he expected, the crowd's eyes had become dazed as if they were caught in his trance
"Haha, people of Elias! Let me tell you, the era of the so-called Gods is over!"
"Do you yearn for power!"
"Do you yearn for fame!"
"Do you yearn for wealth!"
*Ack!!*
Just as Almeron was about to continue speaking, his heart was suddenly stabbed from behind by the pope, however it was already late
*Cough cough*
Coughing out blood Almerons eyes started to blur however he had a smile on his face
"People of Elias!"
"Do you want the power to slay Gods?"
"If so then find it!!"
"I've hidden my research all around Elias!!!"
Exhausting his strength, Almeron gave one last shout before collapsing in a pool of blood on stage
*Elric boy, I hope the chaos from this buys you enough time*
With that as his last thoughts, Almeron closed his eyes never to be opened again
"....."
Silence….
With Almerons collapse, Silence filled the crowd, however, it was unknown who started it first but soon loud cheers resounded throughout Elias
"Hahaha!!!! My time has come!!"
"Boys who's with me! Let's go and find the power to slay Gods!!"
It was as if a shackle holding everyone down had been untied as various people's from all over Elias picked up their loads as they embarked on a journey in search of power, fame and wealth
And the pope who had just regained freedom couldn't help but kneel in dispair knowing it was over for him.
