《Superficial Story》Chapter 12 - Damios
Advertisement
(I'm better now. Not 100%, but good enough to produce something i guess :) )
It’s all about making the right goddamned question.
“Which are the people of this world which would give me the bigger amount of Soul Energy from sacrifice after being granted power by me with Good Karma Points and which power should I grant them to receive it?”
[Answer]: Damios Arshandelle and Yirsh’er Ar-marh-abdulla. Damios should be granted the power to heal people as he desires. Yirsh’er should be granted the power to kill anyone by producing a song form her throat. Both powers must be fueled by sacrifices.
Eh.
Easy.
Who are them and why is that?
[Answer]: Damios Arshandelle is the second son of the Arshandelle house of priests of Jaur. Healing the sick is one of their dogmas, but they do not have the power to do so since Jaur punished the house for corruption. Yirsh’er Ar-Marh-Abdulla is a disgraced noblewoman from the Sunnian lands and prostitute which is known as a witch with mythical powers. Allowing her to kill anyone she desires will grant many sacrifices. Both will sacrifice as much as needed in order to remain in power.
Let’s get to Damios first. Bright and might.
He.
I’m on top of his dining table.
Nice. No one is screaming.
“Damios Arshandelle!”
[Damios] - MYLORD!
He threw himself in the ground and started praying.
“Thou hath sinned against me.”
[Damios] - Forgiveness mylord! I beg of you!
“Thou hath taken what was mine.”
[Damios] - Mylord, I have sinned! Please remove the curse! Please forgive me!
Oy, is this possible? Omnyscience? And what curse is this?
[Answer]: Interference. denied. It’s only possible if Damios become your follower. His curse is a “curse of poverty”. His family shall live in poverty.

What is the cost to remove this?
[Answer]: The curse was casted with 1 bad karma point. 1 good karma point is needed for the King of Evil to remove it.
A good one compensating for a bad one.... if I was a good god, would it be the same? Could I remove the curse or change it somehow?
[Answer]: Regular good gods cannot remove the curse casted by other good gods. The Queen of Good can remove the curse. Good gods can overwrite the curse. Neutral gods can remove or overwrite the curse.
Ooooh.
So all of those punished by the idiots above are a good field of cooptation for me, eh.
Nice.
“Thou hath worshiped a false god by the name of Jaur.”
Silence.
Let the impact flow into them. Let them absorb it.
“Damios”
[Damios] - My.. mylord?
“I am Messiah, King of Gods. Thou shall worship me, and I shall remove thy curse and cover thou in blessing.”
[Damios] - …
“Damios, why thou remains in silence?”
[Damios] - … art thou a demon trying to temp me?
Shit.
A motherfucking imbecile.
Omniscience, how do I convince this stupid fool that I’m a god?
[Answer]: Damios cannot be convinced through words. Other methods are as follow.
Tsc.
The son of a bitch had real faith in Jaur, eh.
Even if he was a corrupt motherfucker.
Fine.
I have just enough Soul Energy to do this.
It better be worth it.
Now, let’s follow omniscience’s instructions aaand..
There.
I have access to this shit-head’s mind.
Now I overwrite his belief in Jaur and brainwash him.
Done.
“DO THOU DAREST TO OFFEND THY LORD?”
[Damios] - MY LORD, FORGIVE ME! I SEE NOW! I SEE THE LIGHT OF THY GRACE! I SEE THE GLORY OF THY EXISTENCE!

“Damios. I am thy lord. I am Messiah. Jaur isn’t but a smaller god thou shall not serve, for Messiah desires thou to spread his word.”
[Damios] - MY LORD! I AM NOT WORTHY! BUT SAY A SINGLE WORD AND I SHALL BE SAVED!
“Damios, go and spread my word. Go and collect alms fer me, and sacrifice all fer me. All gold and silver and precious stones and metals thou shall use in my temples. All food thou shall serve in my altar, and only after I eat thou shall eat. All drink must be offered to me, and only after I drink thou shall drink. Be the one who spreads my word, Damios, and I shall be the one to cover thou with the gift of healing the sick in my name.”
Got to show some dominance over this idiotic fool. I'm the fucking Alpha here, bitch!
[Damios] - My lord! I will!
“So I make you, Damios, Hierophant. Go and meet the Emperor. Go and meet the Empress. Go and meet the Sorcerer, the Witch and the Fool. And in the path sacrifice thou shall give me, and in the path others thou must convert to the name of the true god. To the name of Messiah.”
[Damios] - Mylord, thy blessings I am unwhorty off, but thy commands I take with my soul. All I shall give to mylord before having. All glory to thou shall belong, and all food shall be thou before I eat, and all drinks thou must drink of before I drink, and I shall find thy apostles on the world and spread thy name.
“Go now, Damios!”
Now, omniscience, how do I give him both the ability to heal people depending on how much he sacrifices for me and a sense of intuition which shows him exactly where the other important rulers I have put in this world are?
[Answer]: Several methods are available. Such they are.
He.
Let’s go with the most cost-effective. This bitch doesn’t need a lot of power anyhow.
Done.
I wonder how long will it take for me to take over the world at this rate?
[Answer]: 500 years.
Shit.
Better work faster then.

The Chronicles of Artharian Dagworth
Back in 2020 there were many theories on how the world would end. From the many religions apocalypses, nuclear wars that would leave the planet inhabitable, global warming doing the same, biological weapons getting out of control, viruses mutating into unstoppable diseases to the dead raising to prey on humanity, either due to a virus or just because hell filled up. Also, aliens, from the war mongering kind to the ones so advanced they didn’t see us as more than worms. And of course there was the fail proof theory that the world would end when the sun died. In a bunch of billion years give or take. Althougth some new scientist were discussing if the end would be on the take side, since when the sun started dying things would go haywire on the entire solar system and we would collide with mercury or maybe mars way before the expanding sun engulfed earth. But I digress… Now, those were the mainstream theories that the everyday Joe, who didn’t know the big secret, worried about. So, if you were to ask me which theory was correct I can tell you that I haven’t seen any little green man, at least not from another planet, and so far the sun is still shining, although it’s been only 9 years since everything went to hell, not the few billions (give or take) the scientist predicted, so that one isn’t ruled out yet. These two aside, I'd say all of them. Hey everyone, this is my first attempt at writing. I have been planning to do it for a really long time, and while this is not the one epic fantasy idea I ever wanted to write, I think it's a good one. The plan is to write an end of the world urban-fantasy series. Think a world like Dresden Files, Alex Verus, Iron druid, where magic is real but exist hidden from society meets the apocalypse. It will be written in first person in the Dresden Files style, no plans for other POV for now. As you probally alredy guessed from my style, english is not my first langague, so while google corrector helps, expect grammar errors, and I'd be gratefull for anyone to point them. I plan to write 2 to 3 chapters a week, 2000-4000 words each. Might change as I get more experience and depends on my free time. Cover image from the colections of getwallpapers.com
