The Artificial God

The Artificial God
Meeting With the King



Nah! nah! nah! the horse carriage made of gold, and the diamond was rustling let out a sound. With two milky white horses, and a large body, a very healthy horse, and his voice sounded melodious. The chariot was escorted by many royal guards in the back, and in front of it, and the commoners instantly gave way, and made a line for the king to pass by, by, and see his kingdom from his chariot.


All the people welcomed the king with their joyful cheers who had given them the living creatures of his kingdom. The people immediately bowed their bodies, and gave high respect to the king who was passing in the streets.


Not only that, the guards surrounding the king's chariot, were escorted by seven great knights whom they also respected. To them commoners, being one of the great knights was a pride for them. For being a great knight himself is the closest servant to the king. But for the first time the people felt a little strange about the look of the king for now.


Because before the king had never covered his face with a mask, and again the mask that the king wore looked terrible, and ferocious. It makes them think that there is a bad sign for this work. Meanwhile we, the, shan's group, which still included new people in the kingdom, was astonished to see a group of people on the street who then seemed to be giving way to someone very important.


"What's going on here? why are those people on the side of the road?" I said to one of the people in front of me.


"Ah, you're the hero, huh? of course you don't know. If people suddenly shift to the side of the road, it means that the king is traveling around the kingdom to look at his favorite people" said someone I just asked with a happy face. I was a little amazed by the people here, who were so glorifying to their king, which meant that the king had made something great to his people up to this point


But still, these people do not know what rotten plan this kingdom is doing. I can't blame the innocent people of this kingdom for the mission we're on. Even though the king of this kingdom is a role model for his people, we still have to do something about their leader to stop a meaningless massacre. If things get worse, then there's no way we can kill the leader. By killing its leader, it will bow down to us.


Nah! nah! nah! the horse carriage started to walk towards us. The deg! for some reason we all felt an immense pressure from those who were walking towards us. Scary pressure, which makes the heart feel heavy, and the lungs feel hard to pump.


Then the king passed in front of me, and our eyes looked at each other. I felt a gripping aura from the gaze of the king. The blood aura that gave me more goosebumps, the instant the world I saw turned bloodstained. It felt so strange, my head suddenly became dizzy just from looking into his eyes.


Ckit it! suddenly the horse-drawn carriage by the king stopped. And strangely everyone around who gave way to the king was looking at me strangely. I don't know what happened, I don't know what I just did, I really don't understand. My heart has been restless ever since I felt the strange aura of the king walking here.


Then one of the great knights got off his horse, and immediately opened the door of the chariot to the king. Taps! taps! taps! then the king immediately got off his chariot, and went to me in a walk full of charisma. He walked while being accompanied by one of the great knights who had previously opened the door for him, the great knight holding a sword at his waist.


"Bas stupid, what are you doing? why are you lowering your head!" whispered the man next to me who was bowing his head before the king.


The spring! I was very surprised once I saw the incredible speed of the knight escorting the king to his sword in the blink of an eye. The blade almost touched my eyes, but fortunately he seemed to only intend to bully me, otherwise he would have definitely chopped off my head with his incredible sword speed.


"Submit before the king" said the great knight in a threatening voice. Then inevitably I have to lower my head, so as not to create a bigger problem than this. Because we are still not ready to attack the king.


Because some time ago we had a chance to ask about this kingdom, and who is governing this kingdom. We had heard that there were seven terrible great knights from their mouths. Hearing that, I remembered the story of the seven knights in the history of Tygruth that he always carried.


"Please re-enter, your majesty." said the great knight respectfully, sitting before the king.


"Wait a minute.pick your head up.." said the king who then raised my head, and looked back into his eyes. Again I felt tremendous pressure from him. Blarrr! all of a sudden the entire city I saw turned into thick red blood that was burning. Everything I saw turned into a sea of blood, even I was standing on a pool of blood.


And all those around me disappeared, and now there was only me, and the king before me. Everything had disappeared into flowing blood. Even if I saw what was happening to me. At this moment, I am entering into his dimension.


I don't know what he's going to do to me, it all feels stressful. Worst possibility is he already knows what I plan to do with him. Because it's really scary here, "Who are you?.." said the king briefly to my surprise.


It's a strange question he asked me about who I am. His tone was more meaningful as he had met me, and not being challenged by me. Then I stood firmly before him, and answered the king's question, "I am, Gernath" I said.
