The man was brought into a room with a solid iron door behind the shrine by two knights. Some time after the iron door slowly closed, a scream was heard from inside that room. I think I would be nauseous if I saw what was going on in that room. Maybe besides me, the other people in the cathedral looked rather emotionless at what was happening. Z, the world you brought me into is cruel.

-Minutes ago-

"My dearest father, we have brought you this heretic, who has done unspeakable act behind the mountain lately, for you to bring down justice from our gods." One of the knights said.

"What do you have to justify your actions?" The father said softly.

"Come closer." The man said.

"As you wish." The father said in a soft voice and approached slowly.

The two knights tightened their grip on the man's arm with each step the priest took.

"Lower your head." The man said that when he looked up, bruises appeared.

"{You dare….}" said the knights in unison.

"Knights." The father interrupted the knights.

The father lasts down. He spat in the face of the father to my surprise.

"I have nothing to defend. Because what we do is right." He flashed a wicked smile.

"{You.}" The angry knights take turns in kicking his stomach until he spits his blood out of his mouth.

The father calmly walked back to his original position and took out a handkerchief from his shirt. Suddenly, a bell starts to ring from the top of the sanctuary. I swear I didn't miss a freaking bell on top of the sanctuary.

"Knights, We must pause the judgment. It is time to pray." The father spoke quite calmly.

"{Yes, sir.}" The knights knelt on one knee.

The father begins to raise his necklace. The faithful gradually began to pray. I looked at Sophia, she didn't seem to care about this so I also watched silently.

"Oh great powers from above, here today are our prayers for all you have done for Interria today. The one who knows, here we are today to thank for the knowledge and magic that you have brought to this wonderful world. The one who keeps the circle, here we are today to thank for your maintenance of the Interria's delicate balance. The one who guild time and space, here we are today to thank you for every second, minute pass by, for every change that happens around us. The ultimate judge, here we are today to thank you for every punishment you bring down to the sinners. The garden's queen, here we are today to thank for every seed you plant and grow from the ground, for every sunlight shining down from the sun. The leader of the intelligentsia, here we are today to thank you for your guidance to a better understanding of the knowledge we had. The most glorious duelist, here we are today to thank for your teaching about honor and the way of a knight. Knous, Circlus, Cronus, Orderius, Lifeius, Developius, Honorius. Gods on high. Higher than the sky. May all of you hear our prayer. Stand by us in darkest times with your divine power and send the worthy to the land you promised us, the land of Horizon. Our faith protects us. Always."

The father put his necklace back in place. The knights stood up. But at that time, something happened to the man, around him began to appear strange marks. He gradually ascended, purple light appeared around him, and his eyes and mouth glowed. When the knights tried to attack the man, they were blocked by an invisible force field. Everyone in the temple gradually became quite surprised by what happened, except for Sophia. Then the man started chanting things like prayers.

"Oh great powers from below, here today are my prayer for all you will do to this Interria on that day. King of chaos, Breaker of chain, here today is my prayer to spread out your teaching about revolt, and on that day, we will crush down the natural order. Lord of destruction, Bringer of ash, here today is my prayer to guide ignorances to the righteous path, and on that day, we will turn doubters into ashes. Commender of death, Lady of slumber, here today is my prayer to help you back to your legitimate palace, and on that day, we will storm this world with the legion of souls. Master of mischief, Prince of wisdom, here today is my prayer to outsmart the aggressors with your strategies, and on that day, we will strike them at their weakest points. Chaosius, Destructius, Deathius, Foxius. Gods from below. Down to the core of this world. May all of you hear my prayer. I will become your sword on the day of revolting against the divine, on the day of Dusk. My faith overwhelms them. Always." After chanting, he fell.

The faithful began to look confused, the knights approached and captured him, the father was thinking about what was going on. That's when Sophia approached the father.
