'Forgive me, first, seventh, ninth, eleventh, and twelfth; I had no other choice. As the oldest goddess, I have to protect the humans at all costs. I can't let Aria and Erza's creation get extinct like that,' the third uttered inwardly.
'I couldn't help them with no powers, and I still can't help them with half of my powers. But it's still better than nothing. I have to fulfill my duty, the purpose I was created for.'
'The humans may have stopped worshiping us, but there are still a few who worship us. There is a descendant of a clan who worshiped me from the start of their time, and I have to save her. I have to repay her faith.'
After a brief pause, she continued, 'Victoria Dia Libera, I will come to visit you soon in the Gods' Impact. Until then, stay strong.'
[Alright!] The fifth clapped his hands and said, [It seems you five have chosen death. I won't do anything to you, not because I can't do anything to you, but I don't want to do anything to you.]
[…]
[If I force my ideals on you, then it is not free will. I want to create a world where everyone has their own free will, except the races I will create after the genesis. I will create a perfect world that will be unable to innovate and evolve,] the fifth asserted with a maniacal laugh.
Now that seven gods and the goddess were part of the revolution, they had a higher quantity over the other gods. They could vote for anything without even needing to ask the rest of the gods about it.
They had a monopoly over the lives of the heavens and the earth and everything between them.
The fifth distributed the weapons amongst the gods and the goddesses and asked them to eat them to get the powers.
After that, The second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, eighth, and tenth walked out of the hall of heaven.
They walked out of the gate, and then the fifth clapped his hand to summon all the angels of heaven.
Hundreds of thousands of angels gathered in the sky and the ground, curious as to what caused them to summon them suddenly.
[Followers of the second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, eighth, and tenth; get to the side and make space for the followers of the first, seventh, ninth, eleventh, and the twelfth,] the fifth ordered in a loud voice.
75% of the angels got to the side, and the rest 25%, waited for their gods to arrive. But unfortunately for them, that was never going to happen.
[Listen, you fools!] The fifth yelled out loud. [We seven are starting a revolution. Leave your gods and join us, and for that, we shall give you the power and the promise to have your free will.]
[Where is the first?] an angel asked.
SNAP!
The fifth snapped, and that angel turned into ashes.
[I will count to three. Those who want to join us, get to the side with the rest of the angels,] the second asserted in a loud voice.
[Three!] – Fourth.
[Two!]- eighth.
[one!]- fifth.
10% of the angels joined the rest of the angels, while 15% of them stood their ground.
The fifth raised his brows with a curious look on his face and uttered, [So you choose to die?]
[We do not wish for more power, nor do we need free will. We exist to serve our lords, and that's the only purpose of our life. If that purpose is taken from us, then we are better off dead than stay alive,] the angels said.
[So be it!]
The fifth clapped his hands, and the 15% of the angel's body exploded like fireworks and later disintegrated into ashes.
Then, without wasting any time, the fifth looked at the rest 85% of the angels and said, [We are going to start a revolution! Pledge your loyalty, and you shall be rewarded once the time has come.]
All the angels knelt down in front of the gods, and those who were in the air also gestured the same.
The fifth spread his hands and smirked as he said, [Welcome to the new heaven.]
Meanwhile, the first, seventh, ninth, eleventh, and the twelfth slowly stood up and walked to their respective thrones. They sat on it and closed their eyes to go into a deep slumber.
'Fifth, a part of me wanted to join you, but as the oldest, I am the example to the other gods. The other four put their trust in me and believe all my words. I cannot be a part of your plan. But I do want to see what awaits you. Will you succeed or fall down the wrath of the higher gods? Only time will know, and the rest will become history.'
After uttering that to himself, the first fell into a deep slumber with the four other gods and the goddesses.
A few minutes later, the second and the sixth turned to the fifth and asked [What are we going to do about the Gods' Impact? Humans are surviving and getting stronger.]
[Maybe it was a mistake to let them have a chance. What if they actually beat the game?] the eight asked.
[Don't worry. There is no end to the game. There is still some time left before we can finally start our revolution. Until then, we will create strong monsters. We will seek help from the other world monsters to make things more interesting.]
[But the soul eater was our strongest creation. If someone managed to defeat it… how can humans be so strong?] the sixth wondered.
[Don't worry. The soul eater was the boss of the 75th floor in the dungeon of the first realm. Whoever slew it must still be in the first realm— to clear the other floors. And I happen to have a backup plan for that…]
[What plan…?] the third asked to know more about the fifth's grand plan.
[Two weeks ago, I opened a crack to the first hell, in the first realm. The demons could start their game at any time now!] the fifth announced
With little to no emotions in his voice.
