A few days after Vel killed Bishop Selon most of the noble stop fighting for the throne when the Servants of Light announced that they are taking the seat and merging with the surrounding kingdoms creating the Light empire.
“From the information, I received the day of the inauguration for the pope is also the day he supposed to ascend into godhood,” Vel said looking at the palace that being rebuilt for the new emperor.
“How are you going to kill him and what your plan for afterward” Zelly said standing next to him since she learned to accept him and promise not to run away.
“I have a few tricks planned and for afterward I don’t know yet maybe travel the world” Vel said as he didn’t want to be in this kingdom anymore.
“…” Zelly suddenly felt little sad when he said this but couldn’t find the caused and didn’t know why she didn’t hate him for killing her parents.
After their conservation Vel started his preparation so he spent most of his time in the forging room while Zelly went out to collect information.
“The day is three days and it seems all high-ranking member are gathering” Zelly reported from her network as Vel was resting from forging.
“Good and now onto the hardest part” Vel said with a strange smile.
“Can you at least tell me what all these are for” Zelly said picking up a part.
“It’s a secret” Vel said leaving.
“Why is acting all mysterious” Zelly said before heading to her room.
The Day has arrived and the ceremony has begun with the pope standing in front of a large crowd staring at him.
“Let give a warm welcome to our new leader and emperor Bryan Xian” the crowd clap as they looked at the middle-age man who appears.
“I know some of you are not happy since this came so fast and the last king died not long ago and with the culprit still not caught…But as your new leader I hope we can rise as a new empire and-“ The pope paused as he saw a man riding a dragon appear in the distance.
“ROAR”

“Who are you” the pope said as he was confident as a fighter but he knew his skills were not up to par with a dragon.
“I am Vel Devil your executioner” Vel shouted causing the citizen to be confused why he suddenly said he killing the emperor.
“And what have I done for you to kill me” the Pope said
“For ordering your men to kill half million citizens because they didn’t want to follow your religion” shouted from atop the dragon.
This one sentence caused a storm to rise in the crowd as this just seem unreasonable.
When the pope looked at the citizen all he saw were angry faces staring back at him.
‘Is this the person that the oracle warn me about’ the pope suddenly thought as eight years ago before they started spreading their religion they visited an oracle and received a warning.
‘Beware of the teen who comes with black hair and red eyes’ she said.
“If you’re so strong why don’t you come down here and fight instead of standing up there” the pope said hoping that Vel come down and his guards could kill him and he announces that he a crazy assassin.
“I am right there” Vel said and bent down and whispered something into the dragon ear.
When the dragon heard what he said he couldn’t help but smile as it been years since he left his mountain.
“Here I come” Vel shout when the dragon opens its mouth and rained fire down on the pope.
“As if I go down into your trap” Vel said being anti-climatic with his fight.
When the citizen saw what happen they were shocked at first but then raised a complaint since they didn’t get to see a good fight. But the sky suddenly began to darken and lighten suddenly struck the burnt corpse bring the man back to life and has a glow to him.
“I have reached godhood” he began to laugh like a madman as he looked toward Vel like he was an ant.
“Dragon God I think this just got interesting” Vel said as he felt a little tick on the look he received.
“It all up to as I’m going back to my mountain” the dragon said as he turned around and left.
As Vel landed he stood in front of the pope who seems to grow double in size and not just in height.
“Why are you still trying to kill me a god” the pope said raising his hand forming a giant hand in the sky.
“Because it not every day you can kill a fake god and revenge” Vel said.
“Do you think you can stop me with your tiny power” the pope said smashing the giant hand down into the crowd killing hundreds of thousands of people in an instant.
“It a sad thing that you didn’t train to reach that level so you can’t bring out even 10% of its power” Vel shakes his head sideways.
“SHUT UP AND DIE” the Pope shouted as he began his attack on Vel which was easily blocked or counter.
“Why are you so impatient to die” Vel said activation his hidden blade causing wounds to show up on the pope body.
“UGH” the pope said enraging himself more since he can’t land a single hit on his opponent. When he realized he couldn’t win he began to gather his power and was planning to self-destruct taking everyone with him.
“Let end It here before you make a bigger mess than you already have” Vel said stabbing the pope heart and brain causing the pope to fall dead.
When Vel turned around he saw the crowd in a messy state as some were crying to other appalling him for saving them.
“Well I think it time to leave” Vel said as he fades out of view.
