Chapter 254: Merciless Invaders
—–
Nesephise noticed someone in the sky as she was walking away from the idiots that had tried to annoy her. She looked at the sky with her dazzling emerald eyes, quickly realizing that what was in front of her wasn’t something normal. Three entities were floating in the middle of the sky, but they were not normal entities at all. The power and aura they exuded from their bodies was outstandingly strong. They were like massive streams of divinity flowing from their bodies constantly, so strong it made her grow pale.
She looked into these entities in shock, while the rest of the people had yet to realize that they were being looked over by beings beyond their understanding… Unlike other self-contained worlds where beings that had surpassed divine power were not allowed to easily attack mortals by the forces of these worlds, in the Outer Universe there was no such thing.
If they wanted, gods could easily wipe out as many mortals as they wanted. But usually, most mortals already belonged to other groups of gods, or were very so often of not interest for them to even pursue anyways, of course, there were also the Heralds of Light, which were pretty much the cops of this Star System. Due to this, the evil gods didn’t easily went around killing mortals, but in the world of Amphibi, similarly to Ginnungagap, it was a rather lawless place, Heralds of Light barely got in here so it was hard for them to even find out they were being abused by other gods
Due to this, in these lawless lands, they only had luck at their side if they didn’t wanted to be found out by Gods themselves and slain, or even worse, enslaved.
Even Gods appreciated mortals for their work, accumulating hundreds or thousands of them would generally help them build up great profits for their earnings, they could easily accumulate a large quantity of mortals and use them to gain more profit through forcing them to work for them.
Now, before Nesephise, this scene was occurring, as three Gods, Gehekakth, Laura, and Cutthroat had emerged, although they had simplistic and stupid names, they were still beings that had surpassed even Demigod levels of power and were Gods with all their rights.
Their auras intimidated even Nesephise, a talented magician and powerful wielder of a special talent… she looked at them, gritting her teeth, and forced her own body to move before their incredible might. She had to quickly do something, tell her people to run away or something!
“SHIT…! EVERYONE! RUN! MONSTERS… THOSE ARE MONSTERS!” she said, pointing at the three approaching figures carrying a big and transparent egg, as the figures got notice of her and hurried their pace, reaching here before anyone could properly react.
“What are you even talking about?”
“Nesephise?”
“You’ve gone nuts already?”
“Huh? What’s that?”
“Flying people? Why- GUAKH…!”
Suddenly, one of the men closer to the trio of gods was grasped by the bug-like and exoskeleton-covered claws of Gehekakth, the praying mantis humanoid insect looked at the amphibian man with empty and cold eyes…
“Hmm, you’re a good specimen, you’re strong and muscular, you’ll work to death for us from now on, nice to meet you.” It said.
“W-What?!” the man muttered those words as he was suddenly overwhelmed by the powerful divinity of the bug god, encompassing his entire body, he felt like he was running low on oxygen and his entire skin was drying… it was so strong and overwhelming he could only struggle to even breathe, falling over the floor as Gehekakth let go of him.
“Uungngh…!”
The bug god quickly took out something from out of thin air, as if he had some sort of dimension inside of his own soul, and well, he had, every god had a divine realm inside of their souls.
Storing items inside was an obvious thing everyone did. And he was not unlike these gods that did so. The bug god took out a slave collar and wrapped it around the man’s neck, in an instant, he felt a strong paralyzing spark rushing over his body, and he was suddenly enslaved.
“Now you’re my property, kukuku…” laughed Gehekakth mercilessly, looking at the other people as they all gasped in horror.
“W-Who are you people?!” asked another man, a burlier one, seemingly the chief of the entire village.
“How rude, you dare raise your voice against gods themselves?” asked Laura while laughing, she walked towards the man slowly and coquettishly. Despite her small stature that made her look like a little girl, she had a strong charm within her. The man, however, didn’t felt any of that charm and rather only felt a lot of fear.
She reached him as she extended a whip, the whip wrapped around the chief’s neck and lowered him down to her, as she put her sharp heels over his forehead. The man struggled as much as he could but was left helpless, despite her stature and child-like appearance, she was incredibly strong.
“Unngh…! Agghh! W-What… Ungh?!”
Her sharp heels began to pierce through the man’s left eye, almost about to pop it out.
“You’re really a piece of shit for thinking you can actually talk back to us, huh? You mortals are really in need for some discipline… How about I pop that eye of yours to learn a lesson? Do you want that?” she asked, her eyes glowed with pure malice. She was a woman who had long ago disregarded her empathy to anyone.
“Uuuaaggh…! Stop! Please…! Sorry…! I am sorry!” supplicated the chief, the entire tribe looked in horror at the situation, meanwhile, the brown-skinned man, Cutthroat, raised his hands with a pleasant smile, glaring down at Nesephise in front of him.
“People of this random village, from now on, you’re all our property. Don’t resist or you’ll suffer an even worse fate than your chief.” He said with a smile, showing his bright white teeth, the people slowly began to step back from the three gods, although some tried to help the chief.
“L-Let papa go!” cried a little boy, rushing towards the chief, his father…
