Chronicles Of The Shura Clan

It's already been a day since Freya also known as the Goddess of Thunder and Wisdom had chosen her apostle. Just like Freya, the other six celestials had also chosen their apostles in the same grandiose manner.

While Freya had chosen a woman from the human race as her first apostle, Thalia, the Goddess of Nature and Healing had chosen a woman from the Elf race.

Aurora, the Goddess of Fire and Justice chose a human male as her first apostle while Whirl, the God of Wind chose a member of the beastmen race as his first apostle.

Both Minerva and Aether respectively known as the Goddess of War and the God of Time chose humans as their apostles whereas Sachael who was known as the God of Water and Agriculture chose a man from the Elf Race to be his first apostle.

None of them seemed to choose a member from the Orc race to be their apostles. Though the Orcs were physically stronger compared to the humans, they were still a little slow and sometimes behaved like brainless wild beasts.

Furthermore, their rate of reproduction was a hundred times slower than that of the humans which further made them less than an ideal choice.

The Celestials' decision of choosing the people from the Human race, the Elf Race, and the Beastmen Race and appointing them as their apostles were based on two criteria. The first criteria were their rate of reproduction of that race while the second one was their intelligence.

Whether it was the human race, the Elf Race, and the Beastmen Race, they each fulfilled one or both criteria while the Orcs didn't fulfill any one of them which was why they weren't chosen.

...

Like an irreversible and unstoppable arrow shooting rapidly across eternity, time quickly flowed by and twenty years have gone by since the seven celestials had made their appearance.

While twenty years might seem very short in the life of the celestials to the point of being negligible, it was a very long time in the eyes of the regular mortal.

Over the past twenty years, everything has returned to normal and many things have also changed.

The entire world has changed from an atheist world to a devout religious world known as Holy Septima referring to the seven Benevolent Gods that had saved it from the Evil God.

Also, the location that the seven celestials had first descended upon had become the most sacred and holy places throughout the whole world. They even built a temple in the location and each one of them was guarded by an apostle.

Every day, countless devout believers traveled from afar to pray and asked for guidance from their beloved Gods.

Furthermore, over the past twenty years, many devout followers have awakened numerous power and skills which have put them above the rest of the populace.

For example, some of them have awakened superhuman strength and healing power while others gained knowledge about a variety of things such as agriculture, medicine, architecture, etc.

Through this knowledge, many of them became farmers, architects, doctors while others became Holy knights, etc.

Moreover, not only the number of humans had increased significantly over the past twenty years, but the human civilizations had also grown by leaps and bounds, which led to the creations of many towns and cities.

Soon after they entered the era of cities, the first kingdom to ever exist was established in the Central Continent known as the Volt kingdom.

The King of the Volt Kingdom was crowned by Hera, Goddess Freya's apostle, and was also blessed by the Holy Temple.

As the messenger and also the right hand of God in this world, the apostles were considered as the highest and the most respected person throughout the whole world.

And even though the Gods never made an appearance again, it was a well-known fact they always communicated with their apostles through their dreams and taught them many things.

Just like the humans, the Elf and the Beastsmen have also established their own kingdoms in the other continents. Knowing that they weren't the only intelligent beings in the world, they started to trade goods with one another.

Despite their differences, they didn't go to war or fight against one another because they knew that there was a greater threat and deadly enemy which was the evil beasts that had occupied both the Western and the Northern Continent.

...

"It seems like everything is on the right track." Murmured Ling Chen with a slight smile on his face as he was walking through the bustling streets of the newly created Volt kingdom along with the seven celestials and the little devils.

Because Ling Chen had cast an illusion upon them which made them looked no different from the regular inhabitants of this world, no one was able to see their true appearance.

"Indeed, all the seeds have already been planted. We can only wait for them to fully grow and mature." Respectfully answered Freya who was walking next to Ling Chen.

"Now that the system is already set. We don't have to stay in this world any longer and watch everything. Furthermore, even when we are gone, we could always come back within just a second no matter where we are through the portal I left behind."

"Also, you guys could always control and communicate with your apostles as well the people you've blessed with your power to just like I could control the Evil wild beasts from afar." Explained Ling Chen.

He was right. There's no need for them to stay in this world any longer. The celestial didn't have to here to communicate with their apostles. They could always control and brainwash them from afar through their dreams.

Not only the apostles, but they could also communicate to any of their believers and bless them through their dreams as well.

The moment a person believed in them and prayed to them, they somehow made connections with them. And unless that person died or stop believing in them completely, those connections would never be broken.

"Yeah, let's do it. We have so many other worlds to visit. Let's get this over with so we can quickly leave the 9th Ring of the Chaos Universe." Quickly answered Ling Wei with an impatient look on his face.

Though the other little devils didn't say anything, they were also thinking the same thing as they were looking at Ling Chen with an expecting look on their faces.

To them, staying in a world where they couldn't fight and going on a rampage was truly boring. Unlike the seven celestials who didn't seem to like fighting, they were all battle maniacs that couldn't spend a long time without killing and fighting. As such, staying in this world was like torture to them.

Even though they have killed many people in this world for fun to quench their thirst, it still wasn't the same.
