MMORPG : Rebirth Of The Strongest Guild Master

" There was a time where the world was in harmony , a time before humans were born , a nascent world with all four continents connected as one.

It was me , the goddess of light , the sun god , the moon god , the sea god , and some more who were called the ' Primal God's ' governing the world according to the principal's of the True God , as there was stability amongst all of us .

Then the humans were born , and us the primal god's were worshipped by the humans , there was birth of relegion , and us primal god's realized that the more that the humans worship us , the more our divine power increased.

Unlike you mortals us god's did not ascend tiers to reach where we are , we were born from the laws that we govern as supreme existances , bowing down only to the one true God .

However while our power could never fall below tier 6 , we discovered that fame and worship was a concept that if gathered enough helped even us god transcend our capabilities and perform miracles.

Hence followed the period where everyone was trying to win favour from the humans. Becoming patron god's of towns and establish churches to gather massive following.

However with the allure of gathering more worshippers increasing strife between the primal god's , there began a period of competition where the primal god's out of petty jealousy often wiped out kingdoms loyal to some other gods. Plunging the world into chaos.

To stop this phenomenon , the True God created the Archangels. The peacekeepers between mortals and god's , the ' chosen ' as we called them , the servants of God and his eyes and ears on middle Earth.

The Angels did not get stronger with humans worshipping them , nor did their power wane should they loose followers. They were simply above this vain struggle as unlike us Primal God's who can never ascend to tier 7 no matter how many worshippers we get , the Angels could reach the realm of the true god , as the angels can level up just like you mortals.

While Micheal , Sariel and Raphael did not stray from the Path of service to the True God , Lucifer had other ambitions , as he tried to usurp the throne of heaven.

Alas , it was not to be as he failed miserably and was exiled away from heaven and middle earth , his only shelter being the underworld.

At the time , i was the ruler of the underworld , having created demonkind two centuries ago , the race that was supposed to dwell inside the underworld because I felt too lonely living down there alone.

If i wish I could have created the four demon kings as well , who just like the angels would have no potential cap , who would be born at the peak of tier 5 and would become tier 6 with only some years time to become pillars of my own power .

However I resisted that urge because I did not want to shake the powerbalance of the world , and was afraid that just like Lucifer tried to usurp the throne of heaven , one of the kings might come after me.

This was my biggest fear and my greatest mistake , as when somehow Lucifer learnt about my great invention he tried to forcefully trade me for it .

Lucifer wanted the four kings to become his pillars in his war against the True God , however I refused and threatened to oust him from even the underworld should he not give up his venomous dreams.

But little did I know back then that words did not work on the devil for his very visage was evil.

Luring me into a trap , Lucifer bound me and poisoned my body with the very laws of death that I govern in the most despicable of moves.

Should I dispell the poison , it would mean that nobody would die anymore and the world would turn into a lawless place without death . Should I accept the poison then i would forever be a cripple who cannot even bat an eyelid without suffering excruciating pain.

That is how , I , the great king Hades lost his throne of the underworld to the fallen angel Lucifer.

Renaming it as hell , Lucifer began his reign of terror and suppressed my children the demon's through tyranny.

He knew that given time should enough people worship me i would gather the strength to dispell this poison in my body without breaking the laws of death and be set free hence he systematically destroyed my churches and wiped my name from the history of middle earth.

It has been 13 thousand years since the last pope of my Church assumed office , untill after all this time YOU walk into my conscious space , a weak mortal at peak tier 3 who would not even be allowed to become a bishop in my church at my full glory , holding my grim reaper and trying to win the right to become pope .

How have the times changed eh? ". Hades said , his tale giving Rudra unprecedented insights about the true history of the world of Omega . A tale that had not been recorded in any history books.

Rudra felt sympathy for Hades as he felt that although Hades was the god of death there was nothing evil or undignified about him. He was exactly how Rudra imagined god's to be like , and nothing like the lying , conniving , piece of trash Lucifer.

In his mind Rudra wanted to give the developers of cuber corp a grand salute for making a game with such deep history ... As if it was not a game , but a real worl with thousands of years of history and tales .

However at the moment comforting Hades took priority as he said " to be honest i did not even know i would be teleported into this room with you when i touched the sword .

I had no plans of trying to become the pope , i just wanted the weapon because it had amazing powers ".

Hades had a hearty laugh after hearing Rudra's reply as he said " My boy , there have been 748 Pope's throughout the history of my relegion , however more than 15,000 have died facing this trial here.

In my prime i used to test a mortals resolve and commitment to the relegion , killing them should their resolve waver while only the best got the right to call themselves pope.

That sword you so desire , do you even know it's true might?

Your honesty amuses me , however any mortal wielding even one move of that sword would be crippled forever ".

Rudra's heart paused at this revelation. He had been using moves well beyond his means for a long time now , hence not a stranger to the concept of debuffs after using a move that was beyond one's means.

He took the warning very seriously as he looked towards Hades for further guidance .

" Usually i would never allow a weakling like you to become my pope , but these are desperate times and my glory is not as magnificent as it once was.

Say mortal , are you willing to serve me by becoming the pope of my religion? ". Hades asked Rudra , a shine in his eyes .
