The priests had received an oracle after a long time.

The rest of the people sent back home.

The remaining people were a nun and me. She looked like she was around mid-30s, in age, she was wearing typical nun clothes. Her eyes looked sinister, she was staring at me, like she was trying to devour me.

Her stare had no effect, but it was annoying enough to make me nearly lose my bloodlust.

“My child, you have been chosen by the gods to fulfill a prophecy.”

It was the father of the church, he had just arrived, the way he looked, the ways spoke, I hated every bit of it.

“I can feel you have been blessed my many gods; you shall help our kingdom prosper even to greater lengths.”

Prosper? The moment I complete the task and receive the rewards, I am going to destroy this kingdom.

“Usually, the ones who have been trained since young and devoted their lives to gods since young age receive oracles, but you seem to be special, but who am I to question the judgements of the gods?”

He had the same eyes, the same look on his eyes like the nun, the feeling of superiority, the feeling that made him think he was in control, the sense that the world revolved around him, I wanted to crush them all.

“I won’t accept this.”

A voice of came from behind, it was a voice if a young teen, I turned behind, the voice had interrupted me as I was about to slam the father in the ground, the moment I turned, my blood lust released, all concentrated towards the one in front of me.

His Bulging eyes turned to swallow, his body started to shake, his legs gave up, his body began to sweat as he saw the eyes of the one staring down at him, he felt the fear like he had stared into an abyss and the abyss stared back.

The cross in his neck broke.

The cross seems to have protected his life from my bloodlust.

His life remained, but his spirit was broken.

Father and the nun did not realize what had happened and simply asked, “What happened my child? What won’t you accept? And why are you on the ground? What happened to you?”

“Ahh, yes, I won’t accept an outsider working alongside us.”

I had erased his memory of what happened and healed this sprit with a simple look, so he could speak, my task was to make them question their faith, breaking them now would have done me no benefit, so I healed him.

With a shape tone, father answered his question, “Mind your words, the gods themselves were the ones who decided this, refusing to work with him is like refusing the will of the gods.”

He bowed his head, he had a look of confusion of his face, he could not speak up even his own thoughts.

“Yes, we might we unworthy to question the actions of the god, if the gods have made the decision then we shall accept it, but we do have the right to test his strength, if we are going to work together, then we should know about each other’s abilities.”

The voice was of one the twins, two girls had also arrived in the church, they were the same age the man.

“Yes, but that is something you find out along your journey, now all you can do is trust god’s judgement.”

They could not deny the words of the father, I could feel the doubts within their hearts, my task to make them question their faith in gods, but I could feel they already had concerns,

Maybe because they are young and didn’t understand the working of the world. They question everything, as a child one accepts anything thing readily, whatever information is fed to them they would believe as they see the adults as a perfect being who knows everything. Still, once they become a teen, they begin to question their beliefs. They find out the adults in front of them aren’t perfect, they begin to see the flaws in people, they also develop a feeling of superiority, thinking they are unique, in such conditions how could they have faith in anything? They would simply not accept their inferiority, so, isn’t this task already completed?

Whether use me or get used by me was what he said, I could see how I could use him, but I could not understand how this would benefit the gods.

“Now, listen, my children, your task is simple.”

He gave me a sword.

“Take this sword, the neighbouring countries, they are being attacked by the demons, slay one of the demons and report back what effect this sword had on it.”

“But what is this sword supposed to do?”

“You will learn along the way that is the wish of the gods.”

Haha, that was not the massage gods sent them, I see now, As I was now the one blessed by the gods in the eyes of people, it must have made them feel threatened, take this sword and kill the demon? Nonsense? In their eyes, I am just a teenager, and in this world, it is known that it takes warriors with high strength to kill a demon, yet they are sending me along with a bunch of kids, Using the words of a god as an excuse to get rid of me, even sacrificing some the worshipper’s how amusing,

I see it’s not that the gods had forsaken the humans, but the humans themselves were the ones who abandoned the beliefs of the gods.
