Hearing the calls of the crowds and the prayers of believers, the enormous Star Kingdom moved closer and closer to the ground out of the dark night sky over the Kingdom Hollyma.
The divine kingdom of the master of the night was never so close to the mortal world as it was at this moment. It seemed to be within one’s touch if they stood on high grounds.
“We call your sacred name. You are the master of the night, the controller of stars and dreams... We long to enter your kingdom, to enjoy immortality and...”
All the believers repeatedly chanted the same prayer. With the Star Kingdom approaching, the silver stars started to form patterns in the sky. One could even faintly see the inside of the divine kingdom.
Such a view drove all into a frenzy. Many did not even realize that darkness had swallowed them. Countless believers were assimted by the power of the abyss by their prayers.
“God! I can see, I can see it now! Your angles havee for me!”
A priest of the Church of the Dark Night stood up all of a sudden. A ck vortex rushed to him. His body was taken by darkness and transformed into a ck shadow. It rose into the sky following the dreamy starlight and entered the kingdom of the master of the night.
“Look! It’s a miracle! The Kingdom of God is weing his believers!” Other priests saw what had happened, and jealousy kindled within them.
“The heavenly doors are open for us!” Commoners outside the city were tearing up. They all wished that it was they who had risen up to heaven. They kept hitting their foreheads against the ground madly, not stopping even when blood dripped from their foreheads.
Adonisughed even louder. He opened his palms, his face distorted. His body twisted and quivered from hisughter, almost like a puppet. However, no one’s attention was on him, as all were distracted by the Star Kingdom in the sky and the shadows entering the divine kingdom.
“Hah hah hah...Come..e..e! Pray to God! God shall be awakened from sleep. He is calling his believers! His most faithful children! Tonight, the doors of heaven are open to everyone! As long as you are truly faithful!” shouted Adonis.
With Adonis’s words, many of the clergy members were swallowed by darkness one after another, transforming into evil shadows of the abyss. They rushed to the Star Kingdom in the sky and became part of the kingdom of the master of the night.
“Hah hah hah hah! That’s right! That’s right!” Adonisughed so hard that he could barely straighten his body!
“Go! Go!” he screamed madly. Standing in the hall of the Divine Pce of the Church of the Dark Night and looking down the stairs, he saw countless people below. In Adonis’ eyes, they were countless foolish idiots.
It was a dreand. The night was quiet, the stars glimmering. Clouds danced on the wind, lively and whimsical. Stars intertwined with the clouds. Countless bubbles floated through the air. In each bubble, there was a unique scene. Happy dreams, horrifying nightmares. They were the dreams of the living.
The Kingdom of God, a magnificent pce was built on starry clouds. There should be many followers and believers there, but now they were all trapped in their sleep. A dream bubble inside the pce was breathing and swelling as if it was incubating something within.
When the many evil shadows of the abyss rushed into it, the bubble burst. The beautiful divine kingdom of the master of the night was tainted with ckness. Darkness had invaded the pce.
The crowd on the square did not notice a thing. They had lost their minds.
Everyone had lost their sanity. One by one, they all turned into evil shadows of the abyss and rushed into the divine kingdom in the sky. One, two, three, ten thousand, and then a hundred thousand!
All believed that their god was awakened and that the heavenly doors were opening for them. They did not know that they were turning the divine kingdom of the master of the night into an abyss, contaminating the origin of the master of the night, and dragging the master of the night into the abyss of annihtion and no return.
The sacred silver kingdom gradually turned ck. Darkness entered from below, covering the entire star.
A ck star breathing the horrifying power of the abyss emerged in the sky of the Hollyma Kingdom
The young pope sitting on the stage, Alice, sensed the abnormality. All the people in Biketo and the Hollyma Kingdom had gone crazy. Darkness and horror abounded. She held Adonis’ hand in fear.
“Mr. Skeleton! Stop! Stop this!” begged Alice.
Adonis turned his head. His frantic smile faded and he said, “Don’t fear. It’s almost over. Just onest step! Do as I asked, and take the name ‘God of the Night. Alice, believe in your power, and you shall be the next master of the night!”
All the believers in the square turned into evil shadows of the abyss and entered the divine kingdom. From the streets, shadows flew into the sky on starlight. The crowded Divine Pce of the Dark Night became less and less crowded until there was not a single person left.
On the stage, kings, nobles, and so-called descendants of god all turned into evil shadows of the abyss, taken by the darkness.
When Adonis said those words, the square was infected by the power of the abyss. Something seemed to have risen from the underground, and the entire square was taken over by the abyss’ power.
Huge, diamond-like crystals rose from underground, devouring everything around them. Matter, air, even light. It was the Talos Door summoned by Adonis.
The entrance to abyss emerged from the underground. ck swirls filled the sky over Biketo City, devouring everything, and moving toward the Star Kingdom in the sky.
At the same time, in the darkened Star Kingdom, the master of the night was sleeping in his pce. He also sensed grave danger. The pce copsed and crumbled. The divine kingdom slowly turned into an abyss. Countless evil shadows from the abyss flew into the pce and became part of the core of the sleeping master of the night.
Only a few in the city escaped from the frenzy. They stared at the ck star in the sky, the opened entrance to the abyss, and the madmoners around them taken over by evil.
“What is this? What have we done?” a young girl shouted. She stared at the entrance to the abyss floating in the sky and copsed to the ground.
“God! What are we doing?” Commoners looked at the evil shadows flying toward the divine kingdom. Nothing but fear was on their faces.
“Who are we praying to? God, or demon?”
“Run! Evil has befallen us!”
“It is a setup! It’s the evil calling us, and we are all infected by the evil!”
“Darkness and evil haunt this ce. Death haunts this ce!”
The city fell into chaos. Staring at the giant entrance to the abyss in the sky above them, despair consumed everyone. People fled, struggling to escape this city which was now under the control of the power of the abyss.
“It’s my time now!” said Adonis, ncing down at the lostmoners who were running around and screaming for help in the city.
Adonis ripped off his disguise and robe, turning into a pir of fire. The roaring mes of the mutated devil fire rose into the sky.
ck mes spun and danced around him, then transformed into a skeleton of dark mes. He became part of the giant swirl at the entrance to the abyss, staring at the Star Kingdom in the sky with cupidity.
Adonis had fully be one with the abyss, and he no longer suppressed his power. Leveling up from a level-six to a level-seven mythical being, transforming into the King of the Dead, Adonis rose again. He did not care about the pressure and rejection from the origin of the world, as this was hisst show, and this would be hisst stage.
“The leader has entered the stage! In the next scene, the death of God!” shouted Adonis.
Adonis became one with the entrance to the abyss. Dark tentacles twisted out from the swirl of the abyss, reaching out into the sky, as if they were looking for a sacrifice.
