I created my own system

Fortunately, all the five Gods favor their descendants and that is why when they saw such a slaughter, they wanted to make their own move despite the rules that hindered them. It was still their children, their kin to the human they fell in love with. Seeing them dying one by one almost made the Gods berserk.

They watched them from when they were born, until they became adults, and had a family and grandchildren. That is why they can\'t explain the rage they felt.

If it weren\'t for the rules that bound them not to interfere with the world and the other Gods\' warning, they would have manifested inside the mortal realm and ravaged the monastery. However rules are rules, they must adhere to them and keep the balance together.

But they wouldn\'t sit still they must do something in order to ensure their revenge. And so all the Gods gathered to address such a situation. If they wouldn\'t help then they should prepare to stop the five Gods whose madness has escalated throughout the years.

The heavens agree to help and so a chosen one must be decided. That person will bear the will of the Gods and protect their descendants however as they look for possible candidates the Gods meet a wall.

They have too many candidates that they can\'t come to terms with whom they will choose, and they couldn\'t choose all of them either.

And so the Gods got stuck inside the meeting for three years, until...

A presence made its way to them.

All twelve Gods look down on Bunag wondering what is going on.

The world spins slowly while mana becomes focused in a certain place.

They look at the source of it but strangely they can\'t.

This filled them with unparalleled curiosity.

"He is back"

They all concluded.

However his return won\'t change their current situation, it\'s not like He will come to aid them. That being is an outsider, an outworlder, one whose origin came from another universe.

They can\'t rely on such a being, and so the meeting continues with the Gods fighting over the candidate they wanted.

It was a mess and the ones whose disappointment is scaling high are the five Gods whose children are dying at the moment.

They wanted to end the damn meeting but they couldn\'t come up with a proper ending.

Bunag made another weird movement and for the second time, they all focused on the tiny blue planet.

"An authority"

They noticed, and it wasn\'t one but five. Five authorities of five different Gods.

"Those were yours"

"Indeed," the five said in unison.

Their thoughts moved and the world obeyed.

The clouds parted and an unknown creature revealed itself.

Its body is being protected by a black exoskeleton, sharp blades wings at the back and horns at its head.

"Demon"

The Gods concluded.

"A demon who can think....no..."

They could see that its soul was a human but its body was that of a demon.

"Interesting"

A sudden power was summoned making the Gods even more interested.

This creature has the five authorities but the Gods who own those authorities doesn\'t know that such a being is using their power.

It was threatening but at the same time funny. How can someone steal the power of God?

Based on how he handles such a power this creature must have been using the authorities for quite some time now.

Yet they just discovered it now.

"How amusing," they all thought.

Then a sudden decision was made.

"This being shall be our representative, our chosen one"

Twelve streaks of light gathered and turned into gray matter, flying straight to the mortal realm.

The meeting was finally concluded and the heavens lightened, as the twelve Gods left to sleep again.

They will only wake up if the universe were to be in danger.

...

Aaron\'s Pov

My arms were coated with a warm embrace of golden light while the space punctured. My will must be obeyed and the space vibrated while small fissures began to appear.

This is the best I can do, the pressure from the small cracks would soon halt the movements and attacks of my enemies.

"I hope I did well"

I looked up and saw Apollo who is currently flying towards the army of paladins and priests.

"Be careful don\'t go closer to them!"

"I know"

His weapon ignited, and the blue markings in his spear spread turning into pure energy. Then this energy turns into smaller bits resembling a glowing luminous insect.

These tiny dot-shaped lights flow freely on the frozen enemies while those who can move try to defend against the mysterious light.

One hundred Apollos released the same attack creating a sea of blue lights. This caused panic among the lane of the enemies because none of them could destroy the lights.

[All targets have been acquired proceed to attack?]

"Yes let us proceed"

I saw from below how my friend snapped his finger and made his spell Firefly explode.

Hundreds of explosions sounded from afar by now the space as returned to normal.

My eyes felt a bit burnt due to the intense light from the burst of explosion. This brought me to remember the catastrophic entrance exam. Apollo\'s spells were off the scale, too high-powered for people of his age.

However, after having a trip to the tower it made me realize why he became like that. Spells like Firefly are pretty normal there, so it made sense for him to think that he could use it freely at the entrance exam. He must have thought that the students at his age were capable of such an act.

Ten mechanized soldiers were standing beside me and Vesta making sure we wouldn\'t get swept by the strong force of impact.

"I wonder how\'s Braiden and Alya doing"

"Don\'t worry I am sure those two are safe"

Vesta\'s words made me feel relieved but deep inside an emotion was deeply embedded in my heart and mind.

"A little bit more and I will able to meet that person again"

An image of a hooded woman came to my mind making me wince in pain.

"Calm down" I placed my hand over my chest trying to calm my raging heart.

"She won\'t be able to reach you now," I said trying to comfort myself.

.....

Alya\'s Pov.

According to Apollo, there should be a tunnel beneath each temple so we should look for it. However, I don\'t know how he got such information since he adamantly told us all he knew.

"Well except the thing he was looking for"

I shook my head and decided to just focus on the task he gave to us.

With high-powered soldiers with us, it should be fine.

Outside of the temple me and Braiden began searching for it.

"I think we finally found it"

My senses told me it should be here so it should really be here. I have a good radar when it comes to looking for things so Apollo gave me this task.

"Are you sure this is it?"

"Of course"

I moved a stone from the ground and the ordinary-looking tree moved and revealed a path.

Braiden looked at me, dumbfounded at the current situation.

"You should have gotten used to this by now"

I said feeling a bit grumpy it\'s not like it\'s the first time I demonstrated this skill of mine.

"Sorry my fault"

After saying those words Brai brought a communicator bracelet and spoke.

"Apollo we found the tunnel"

{Good I\'ll be there in a bit}

A few seconds went by and three Apollos came down.

"Let\'s head inside"

He told us and gladly we entered the dark room without hesitation.

Contrary to the disturbing battle at the surface the tunnel was strangely quiet.

"It seems they had put something to protect this tunnel"

"Because they wanted this place to remain hidden and protected"

"I actually found its existence when I was helping Blair and Mckenzie at the other temple. However, this temple was built differently making it hard for me to locate it"

"So that\'s why you asked me to scout the area"

"Yes you have been good in using your instinct when it comes to finding things, so I let you find this place"

"Since we are here I guess Alya needs to find another thing right Apollo"

I kept on listening wanting to know what I needed to do next.

"I want Alya to find certain people for me"

"As long as they are here I think I could"

"Good then we should continue walking"
