God Is A Game Designer - 103 C102 Innocence Defiled

The scene could fill even the bravest man with nightmares, the sunlight no longer daring to peer through the windows as the lower ground hall as the smell of death filled the air. The darkness filling the room as the smog of death hung on the walls, ceiling and floor like a thick mist.

The long hall filled with several tables, each one jammed with children as each one had a bowl filled with the food in front. The stew mixed with meat and vegetables. The meat looking fresh and cooked correctly while the greens looked withered, decaying and dying. The water inside the bowls having a layer of mould floating over the top that expanded rapidly as dark clouds of black mist rolled from the containers.

Each child gave a grim picture as each and everyone had died quickly, each one having rotting and decaying skin and carried the scent of death, some staring off into space in surprise while some looked in pain. Half of them on the floor as they tried to escape from the grizzly fate. The entire room something straight from a nightmare.

Wretching his previous meal up and onto the floor. Sevil turned his back onto the scene as tears flowed from his eyes, his wife holding him tightly as they both cried together in pain and pure grief. The entire several years they spent with these children, helping them as much as they could.

Annie was coming in behind them as she covered her mouth, forcing herself not to throw up at the scene, seeing Nathan standing further ahead than the two crying partners. The images of the previous beasts slain by the man flashing in her eyes. The past was bringing back emotions as she ground her teeth.

“You killed them!”

The words echoed out into the air as the two stopped crying, eyes looking over to Nathan who seemed to be looking at each of the bowls. No tears or sadness as he appeared to be investigating the incident quietly.

“I know you, Nathan. I know what you are capable. Why did you kill them.”

Her voice shrill as she saw no other potential in how the children died to such toxic power as this, no mage was capable of doing such damage on a scale this large.

“I did not kill them; I have no reason to kill them as they are all innocent in this world. I want Sevil to come with me and doing this destroys my chance.”

Nathan felt the rage boiling at the tipping point as he wanted to kill those responsible. This sight was monstrous in all views as he moved past rows of the children, eventually looking to the pot as he started to empty the contents onto the floor after grabbing hold of the metal frame.

The meat, vegetables and water dumped onto the floor as the final contents became removed, several small rattling noises could be heard inside as Nathan plucked out several tiny shards, now empty but previously containing death energy from the previous body of Goddess of Death.

It seemed that for this purpose the meat came from the same vendor as the previous food. Except the shards of death had emptied the entire reserve of death energy into the food instead of holding in as much as possible. The pure celestial power was corrupting every child so quickly it caused near-instant death as the body went into shock similar to one’s body getting torn apart from the inside due to the amount of power.

“May I ask to the location you bought the meat from.”

Nathan spoke softly, the friendliness gone as each person in the room felt a shiver going down one’s spine. The tone filled with bloodlust and murder as it was clear the man was close to breaking and rampaging.

“My wife got it from the grey market. They sell everything under the table. It’s normally less savoury animals or scraps the higher-ups get rid of. Its why we normally get it for a good price.”

Sevil watched as he did not believe Nathan was capable of hurting the children, it made no sense that this murder would happen with him around. Assassination attempts were best made without showing ones face while Nathan had come out into the open. To Sevil, it did not add up that the man would murder the children.

“Those people who sold you that meat. I need a name, location and description.”

“Nathan, do not think about it. They are powerful underworld guilds. We can’t fight them, and you will end up dead.”

Nathan turned around to the man, his power leaking from him as pure white energy blazed from his eyes, the indication of his right sense flowing from him as Sevil became speechless. The white energy flowing with greater potency as it began to fill the room as the darkness touched by the power turned into white light, cascading till the room became brighter than life.

The wooden floor cracking as grass began to sprout through the ground no longer was humanmade but natural. Vines were flowing from the field like snakes as they surrounded the children one by one. Each one beginning to rapidly mend as the skin turned from decaying and grey to a more pure form that looked even healthier than when they were alive.

Nathan’s eyes were turning down as pure white tears streamed from his eyes, moving down his face till they dropped to the floor. As each tear cascaded down onto the floor, a breath of a child became audible as everytime the tears hit the soft, smooth grass another life restored back. Eventually, all children awakening, looking tired and weak as the entire orphanage revived.

Nathan’s energy slowly flickering as his eyes locked by to Sevil who seemed almost shocked, apparently knowing the indication of the power he had seen.

System: Sub-Mission Completed. Created a miracle.

Nathan was ignoring the words from the box, eyes locked onto Sevil as he made his way over. Sevil was taking steps back in response as he felt both fear and awe at this man.

“Sevil. Tell me where they are at so that I can stop them as they are hurting too many people.”

Sevil bit his bottom lip as he looked to his wife before turning to Nathan.

“What are you planning to do?”

Speaking to Nathan as he watched the God walk past him.

“It’s time to extract a pound of flesh.”
