I.. Am God?

Chapter 8 God

In the 39th year of the Divine Calendar, the first Emperor of Sidiun, Asher Yale, was killed in the war.

The crowned prince Leyun Yale was crowned as the second Emperor by the Divine Church and led the Empire of Sidiun with his second brother General Adrin Yale and Prime Minister Kanon Yale to oppose the invaders.

In the last month of the 58th year of the Divine Calendar, Leyun Yale killed King Tirus, and with Prime Minister Kanon, they successfully persuaded the northern nomads to surrender and integrate into their society for a better life.

With that victory, the Sidiun Empire doubled in size and successfully reunited the lands.

On the first day of the 59th year, Leyun Yale formally ascended the throne and announced the victory against the north. The Divine Church preached the speech of Wang Zhong that speaks of the creator's descent to the world.

While preaching, the sky opened and a blinding light shone upon the empire. Faint songs of preaching were heard behind the light until the light fully descended on top of the church.

The light was soothing, healing some of the people's illnesses, making them kneel.

The light slowly receded, revealing a white-cloaked man whose face shone brightly. He was holding a golden staff.

"I am the Creator, the one whose face is cloaked with light. The unity of the East and North signified a big event that could give humanity a chance of survival."

"To elevate the chances of humanity 's survival more, I shall grant the second emperor and his lineage the Royal Sun Bloodline. Discover its powers by yourself."

"For the masses, I shall give you a chance to cultivate. Cultivation is to strengthen yourself to possess power that can rival an army of thousands. Cleaving mountains, reaping open the skies, and halving the seas."

Matthias gave them a Basic Qi Cultivation Manual that Shyra handed him. She made it to teach Matthias how to create techniques on his own.

"Cultivate so that you can stay in this world. Time will come when those with weak physiques will be ejected from this world. Only the strong will remain." Matthias added some false information to scare them a bit so that they cultivate diligently.

"I shall guide you. Rely on yourself, and you will be able to temper yourself from hardship, and hard work. Rely on yourself and you will have with you your pride and trust. Rely on me, and you shall have my support, calmness, and allies who also believe in me behind you. You will have my whole divine kingdom with you. Rely on yourself and put your faith in me, and you shall be granted power like no other. The combined support of your allies, my divinity, my kingdom, and yourself will be behind you." Matthias said with mysticism. Even he was persuaded by himself.

"But be aware. Humanity is created in my image. And I am not perfect. Selfishness, Greed, Egotistic, and Prideful are just some of the bad qualities of humanity." Matthias continued,"But even though that is the case, humans also do have their good qualities. Righteousness, Kindness, benevolence, and respectfulness are just some of humanity's good qualities."

"Be aware of Love, for Love is the highest form of emotion and power. Love is not the origin, but it has everything." Matthias was just casually speaking, but little did he know that everything he will say will be going down to the annals of history.

"Love is always the same and ever-changing.

Love can make you weak just as Love can make you strong,

Love can make you powerful just as Love can make you weak,

Love can make you happy just as Love can make you sad,

Love can make you comfortable just as Love can make you uneasy,

Love can make you alive just as Love can make you wish you were dead,

Love can make you keen just as Love can make you stupid,

Love is everything but never nothing.

Love can make you whole but never empty,

That's why Love is everything but never nothing."

As soon as he finished, the people's minds were filled with new knowledge transcending their time. They knew of love. They lived and existed with it. But what their creator just said made them more enlightened about the said topic.

"The world will be filled with Order and Chaos. Prepare yourselves. Protect your loved ones, and get stronger. If there will ever be a god from all of you, I will be waiting to hand you one of the seats inside my kingdom." Matthias slowly rose, and raised his staff, bathing the land with his divine light once more.

"Glory to The Creator!"

"Thank you for healing me, Creator!"

"Praise be to you, Oh God!"

The people of Sidiun kneeled and praised and worshipped him.

When Matthias came back from Alphan, he saw a smiling Shyra looking at him.

He felt a little weird. "What's with that look?"

"Your execution was amazing, Host. Look at your FPs."

Matthias looked at his FPs just like she said and what he saw shocked him.

"900,000 FPs?! And it's still rising!" Matthias' eyes bulged. He didn't expect it to rise this fast.

"Your religion is the source of your power. And every single being that worships you can add FPs to your divinity. It also depends on their loyalty and devotion. You have healed many people with your Divine Light and Divine Aura so many were so devoted to worshipping you. A man who is devoted to your name can add at least 100 FPs per minute. You could imagine how many people were devoted to you when you personally descended." Shyra replied.

Matthias looked at the mortals below. They were kneeling and calling his name passionately. The Pope of the Divine Church preached the creation of the world and called upon his name and glorified him.

"Hmm. I should create a sacred text. Yeah, I really need to create a sacred text." Matthias nodded and conjured a blank book and a pen. Shyra saw what he was doing and quickly stopped him.

"What are you doing? Why are you making it hard for yourself by writing it all manually?" Shyra slapped his head.
