Upon hearing Seraphine's ridiculous statement, some of the apostles wore expressions of fear, while others appeared skeptical or disbelieving, and others showed complete apathy.
“What the fuck do you mean by all of them?” Kael angrily asked, but no one answered
“This can’t be true. This has to be a mistake!” Alder, questioned in disbelief
.
.
.
“There is no wa—” An apostle was also making a statement, it was then, the black screen that went offline went online again. It merely took few minutes before it came back online.
The apostles Stared at the screen in shock as it came back online, the first thing that pulled their attention was a tiny, iridescent orb pulsating with a destructive otherworldly Energy. It was perfectly round and smooth, almost like a polished gemstone, with a glowing halo of light emanating from its center.
“A Divine Emperor Core!” Spirien exclaimed loudly
“No fucking way! That demon still has 9 and a half horns. There's no way it evolved its core before its fucking body!” Gaius yelled in a deep voice.
“A Divine Emperor Core. That means the Demon will eventually be able to revive,” Auriel said, coldly gazing at the core.
A Divine Emperor Core, a Core that can only be born after absorbing sufficient Divine Energy. Divine Energy is a very precious Energy that is very hard or even impossible to find, but in a God Realm, they are very abundant there.
A Divine Energy born in a God Realm belongs strictly to that God Realm, which made it impossible to extract the Divine Energy outside from that God Realm. It was like a heavenly rule that existed since the beginning of time and it was immensely costly to bypass such rule.
That’s why the apostles weren’t actually scared of a Divine Emperor Demon , as it couldn’t leave the God Realm, but what scared them is an Army under that Demon, a Blessed Demon Army.
“We must Immediately destroy that core before it revives!” Alder said urgently
“Wait, how is the stream live again?” Aria, apostle of Sonorus said with a questioning tone
Before anyone could comment on such absurdity, the apostles and the 200m viewers who still haven’t changed to another channel watched in horror as a man swallowed that Core whole.
Although the man was unclothed, no one seemed to notice that as what grabbed their attention was a smile on the man’s face, the creepiest smile they had ever seen before.
After the man swallowed the core, an explosion sounded then Chaotic Energy flooded into the man’s body. Horns started rapildy appearing on the man’s head.
The man, who was feeling very ecstatic couldn’t help but utter:
“Arigatou Gozaimashita.” The man then started laughed hysterically while the swirling Energy was getting stronger around him.
Auriel, who was watching everything, calmed down a bit, she then looked at Deir, who had a visible face of fear with sweat starting to appear on her forehead.
“Deir, clam down,” Auriel said calmly. “You are the one who summoned that man right?”
“Yes, it was me.”
“Why do you have that face? did you forget that there is a kill-switch in every summoned hero?”
Deir, who, first heard the prophecy from Seraphine, and now, watching the man whom she brought into her world evolving rapidly, she couldn’t help but be stunned…
“Yes, for a second I did forget..” Deir said with a shaken voice
“THEN WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!” A booming voice emerged from Aelius with lightning dancing around him threatening to flood the whole world.
“I don’t have The Admin Key, it’s with Elons.. I can’t summon him here without all of your permissions.”
“I allow it.” Auriel said
“I allow it.” Kael said
.
.
.
“I allow it.” Alder said
After all the apostles permitted it, Deir waved her hands, a man then started materializing, who then bowed immediately.
The man had blood stains on his clothes, that man was Elons.
“My Princess, sorry for looking disheveled. I was training the new collection.” Elons said with respect in his voice.
“The Admin Key, give it to me, NOW” Deir said.
Elons could hear the urgency in her voice, so he immediately handed the key to her.
Elons then watched as her Excellency the Princess started immediately channeling a strange sequence of some kind of a code into the Key.
Elons curiously looked around the room he was summoned in, he couldn’t help but shudder when he saw the people present in this room.
He unconsciously looked at screen that was displaying an otherworldly being, a king? an Emperor? Elons couldn’t describe such a mighty being. The being had 10 huge horns that twirled together to form a shape like a crown. The being wore a grand robe, that befitted it’s majesty.
Elons watched in a trance as he saw different kinds of weapons that started appearing around the being. There were grand whips, swords, spears, scythes, halberds and many bizarre looking items.
The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
Elons instinctively felt it, if he faced such a being, he would be squashed like an ant.
Elons looked at the being’s face, then couldn’t help but tremble so hard..
“This… this..” Elons said almost choking. “What is th–”
Before Elons could finish, the stream which had 30b+ viewers, went offline.

In a large and magnificent building, a man stood on a spacious stage, glaring at the guests who were ignoring him. Many of them were engrossed in watching a live stream and despite his best efforts to hype the products, they were selling for less than he had anticipated.
This man is Jack the Acer, who has worked as an auctioneer for many large auction houses and acquired a lot of experience in that role.
Recognizing Jack's expertise, the newly rising Fayez auction house made him an irresistible offer and recruited him into their team.
Jack watched the guests in irritation. This was something he had never experienced before; while there were usually a few guests who got distracted, the extent of this inattention was unprecedented.
As more guests became increasingly distracted and louder, Jack decided to pause the auction, even though it pained him to do so.
“My dear guests, it appears that an important live stream is currently being transmitted. Therefore, we have decided to temporarily pause the auction until the stream is over," Jack announced to the attendees.
Jack watched as no one gave him any indication of listening; they were completely focused on the stream.
Curious about the live stream, Jack used his StreamNation orb to check the trending channels, and there it was. He was stunned to see that the stream had 29 billion viewers.
It was not unusual for an established channel to have such a large number of viewers, but for a new channel? Jack thought as he looked at the blazingly red label indicating that it was a newly rising channel, it was quite remarkable.
Jack opened the channel, but luck was not on his side as it went offline. However, it immediately came back online, and Jack stared at the screen in a daze as he saw what was being streamed - it was him?
“What is this?" Jack wanted to question, but he was left speechless. He couldn't hear anything anymore, and complete silence filled the room.
Jack could only stare at the screen, which was certainly showing the auction hall. The silence felt like an eternity until an annoyed voice broke it.
“Damn it, I was just starting to figure out how to control the stream view," the voice exclaimed irritably.
“What, you want to take me down again? Do you really think I'm that easy to beat? It was only because I wasn't paying attention, you sneaky bitch!" the voice retorted angrily.
The voice boomed at the end, and Jack felt like an ant stuck in a heavenly tornado that threatened to swallow the skies. If not for the heavenly pressure that pinned him to the ground, he would have been swallowed by the tornado. He could feel his life force ebbing away.
‘I’m dead’ Jack thought dejectedly, but thankfully the roar suddenly vanished, giving Jack more time to breath
“Oops, where are my manners? I'm so sorry!" the voice said sarcastically.
Just as the voice finished speaking, Jack felt all the pressure that had felt like a mountain pressing down on him suddenly vanish.
Jack, who could move again, desperately tried to activate a life-saving artifact that he had acquired for an extravagant amount of Mana Stones, but to his despair, it didn't work.
“Huh? Why are you trying to leave our dear host? Oh, even some of our esteemed guests are trying to leave? No, no, that won't do... I have a show prepared for you all, a show all of you must witness, a Firework Show!"
A long and slender shape, resembling a tall cylinder, started manifesting on the shoulder of the being that had just arrived.
A frown started forming on the being's face.
“The force is getting stronger… Seems impossible to fully resist it.” the being muttered
Jack, who was on his knees, unable to even turn his head to see the being that had just arrived, felt that his end was near.
“Please spare me," Jack muttered weakly. However, he received no response. The only sound he could hear was the angry muttering of the being who had just arrived, sounding annoyed and frustrated.
——-
Annoying, very annoying.
A heavenly force is continuously attempting to crush my soul, and the pain is excruciating. However, surprisingly, my tolerance level has skyrocketed to such an extent that I am no longer affected by the human concept of pain. Despite my efforts to resist and fight it, the force is only growing stronger and more violent.
I could feel the Rocket Launcher finishing its manifestation. Who would have thought that (Infinite Imagination) would truly deliver what it promised.
Now, as for the rocket, should I go for a Hydrogen Rocket?
Hmm, I guess I'm going to outdo that fellow and instead of an empty desert, let's make it a restricted desert. Truly marvelous!
A Nuclear Rocket then. I began to imagine it.
As the rocket continued to manifest, I couldn't help but frown. Some of the guests had escaped, perhaps they were simply strong, or maybe it was because I had no idea what I was doing. What a waste on their part, they would not be able to witness the marvelous fireworks display. I observed the thousands of guests, including Jack who remained kneeling. Why weren't any of them speaking? But then again, who cares? The crushing force was becoming unbearable, and I could no longer hold it in. FUCK.
“It should be your doing, right? You're the one responsible, Elon, you fucker. Don't worry, I won't come for you just yet. The desert will taste best at the end of the meal. KEKE." I couldn't help but laugh at the end. If only I could see his face...
I could feel my soul being almost destroyed, as if one small squeeze would be enough to end my life.
I glanced at the viewer count, which was a staggering 100 billion and rapidly increasing.
Like holy fuck, such a number! Even in my dreams, I would have never thought I would get such a large audience. I can't die without giving them a top view of the marvelous fireworks I'm about to unleash!
I had no time to experiment with the new StreamNation, but a Mythical StreamNation is fucking awesome, sadly I still couldn’t override the always on stream rule.
I imagined a camera positioned 30km above the ground, which should provide the perfect view. I don't know if there's a video of the year award, but if there is, mine should be the first. I mean, who doesn't like fireworks?
I confirmed the view of the stream became top down. I could feel my soul cracking and on the way to shattering.
Well since I’m dead anyway let’s add some spice with the Rocket, I couldn’t experiment with it the second death as I was sneakily killed. Let’s also self destruct.
“You have won again. Good job for killing me once more. Let's meet soon, dear. HAHAHAH."

Millions of kilometer away from where the Fayez auction house was held, is planet Aurorium. In a small farmland, inside a small wooden house was a teen boy. The teen boy could be seen squashing ants repeatedly.
“Matt, what are you doing?” a young girl, with curiosity, asked her older brother.
“I’m getting rid of those pests, they are eating our food.”
“How many of them have you gotten rid of?” the girl asked innocently
“Sara, you don’t count ants when getting rid of them because.. They are ants”
Matt was relentlessly cursing while getting rid of ants, but sadly he couldn’t finish them as he, and the ants, all turned to dust.

In a huge castle on planet Novaria, an old withered man lay on his deathbed. His only dream was to have a child, whether it be a son or daughter, he didn't care. And when God finally answered his prayers and his beloved queen became pregnant, he fell dangerously ill.
Jarvan lay on his bed, taking his final breaths, unable to see anything. It felt like an eternity, but at last he heard the cry of a baby, and he knew it was his child, his own flesh and blood. He desired nothing more than to rest.
Those were the last sounds Jarvan heard before he, his child, his wife, and the planet Novaria, all turned to dust.
——-
This? What? What the fuck is this??
I couldn’t believe my eyes, I glanced all around me on my revive like state, but I couldn’t see anything around me, all I could see were specks of dust. I franticly looked around me but I truly found nothing, even the stream went offline.
How is it so strong? I didn’t plan for this to happen, really believe me. I swear, hahahaha, I didn’t mean to, please beileve me, How would I know that I could do this?
I did want to pay Zara a visit to say hello… but I feel I should take a rest first and recharge my mentality… Fine a rest it’s..

Inside a room , with matte black walls and LED lighting. It featured a massive gaming desk with high-end peripherals, custom-built shelving for gaming accessories, and a comfortable gaming chair with adjustable lumbar support.
In the middle of the room, an otherwordly being started manifesting inside the room.
“Krev, you stupid shit. I’m back!” The being said excitedly
