The enormous body of the ancient ship fell down after burning for hours. The ship landed on a vast field, pretty close to the location of Oath's landing. Oath can only look at the ship, his home since he was born, destroyed like a toy. A wildfire broke out in the area. The forests are burning.
Oath is crying out loudly. His heart is in pain, as his whole colony went into extinction. He would be the last human to exist.
"Why, why did this happen?" This is a question he kept asking.
He doesn't know where to begin. His entire worldview, his trust towards the gods, his mission, his future, everything was wiped out in an instant.
But his eyes lit up in anger.
"At the very least, Jisu. I need to help her," Oath stood up. He gained the energy to walk.
The force from the parachute had injured his left leg. He walked slowly to the cabin. He used his spear as a cradle to help him.
---
Soon, he arrived at the cabin where Jisu was held hostage. She was bound with a strong rope. And next to her, there was an armament.
"Carry her back to my home," he gave a command to the armament.
It nodded and obeyed by quickly flying to the sky.
"No! Jisu!" Oath tried his best to run. But he fell down due to his leg losing its grip.
Jisu didn't respond, as she had gone unconscious now.
"This is the hero, huh? I've heard about your reputation from Snowflake. She is a bother to the very last," XYZ_Richie laughed while sipping on a glass of wine.
"Tell me, boy, how do you feel when your girl is taken away from you? Do you hate me? Do you wish you could kill me?" he threw the glass, and a black hole respawned on time to capture it.
"Why ... why are you doing this to us?" Oath cried out. He wasn't able to lift up his face.
"Why? Nothing special, really. We just thought that wiping you out would be fun."
Oath raised up his head. A big storm of hatred was cultivated in his heart.
"Nah, I lied. Well, let's just say, you can blame the government. You guys are our treasured commodity! How can we wipe you out without any reason? It is, in fact, saddened our heart."
"Commodity?"
"Yeah, don't you guys know that we're selling people who are chosen? You guys are either to be slaves, decoration, or pets. Well, should I say, pets? They love it when we have pets. But not that much if we say that you are a slave. Either way, you are our property. We're choosing the most beautiful and handsome among you. It's our pride and joy when we have good commodities. I have like hundreds of pets. From dogs to humans. They are fascinating, you know?"
"Do you say ... that the chosen ones spend their life as pets, up there?"
"Yeah. Are you deaf? We like to make them as pets. It's fun! Especially if you pet someone cute! We can rub their belly like a dog. If it's a female dog, we can make it moan. It's thrilling!"
"You, you are beyond cursed. What kind of god are you?" Oath clenches his fist. "That means, Jisu?" Oath gritting his teeth.
"Yes. She'll be my new pet. I'd like to make the dog moan, if you know what I mean," that god then laughing hysterically. He laughed while holding his chest and stomach. Even his tears came out. He laughed and laughed until he fell down. He rolled on the ground.
Oath was filled with rage. He wants to kill this false god.
Oath never hates anyone more than he hates this man. No, this is not a man. This is a fake god with a heart of beast.
"Ah, that was satisfying. At least one of you needs to know the reason we call you up. I've been holding this secret for so, so long! To think that your entire purpose to live only to be called up as pets would probably ruin everything, right? Truly, truly worth the wait, huh?! Hey, please cry more, will you? The more you are disappointed, the more joy I have," he continued, laughing.
A flash of spear stopped the laughing god. It flashed right three centimeters in front of his face. It's quite shocking, yet it did not hit him due to his nimble reflexes.
"That was surprising," the god grinned at the weak man who stood up now.
"You should pay for your shitty system," Oath opened his hand. Airi flew back again following his command.
"Oh, the ancient spear of the forgotten war. To think that a mere mortal has a spear like this truly amazes me. I'll take this as my collection. This power is too much for you to wield," XYZ_Richie readied himself to enter combat.

Oath wasn't able to read anything from this god. His chance of winning is almost zero. Even if his condition is better, he wasn't sure he could beat him.
The god lashed out with web-like lasers. These lasers are forcing Oath to avoid it at all costs.
"One hit, and I die," Oath tried his best to dodge it. It came from all directions.
"Dance for me, human. Dance!" He laughed at him.
Oath dodged to the left, and he dashed towards a ruined building to find cover.
"It's useless!" The web is cutting down walls like paper.
It quickly shattered and collapsed. "Hehe, you can't run away, boy," the god launched another attack.
But to his surprise, Oath was not behind the ruins. He moved quickly enough to cover himself behind the dust.
Javelin strike.
That spear came out of nowhere. XYZ_Richie is unable to anticipate the attack. He lifted up his shield. The contact between the two caused a storm of dust and an explosion. When the dust dissipates, the god stood still, unyielding.
"Huh, you think a mere throw can shut me down?" he moved his web to find his target.
But to his surprise, Oath disappeared again.
"Above!" The god looked up and he found a figure of a man holding his spear.
The God lifted his shield on time. This shield is a lot stronger than the armaments have.
"Give up, boy. You can't beat me with tactics like this."
"You killed everyone! I'm going to kill you!"
"A mere human wants to kill god? Are you joking, boy?"
The god casts out a circle of energy to knock back his enemy.
Oath lost his grip and fell down.
"You are actually a capable acrobatic artist. Do you want to be my pets? Let's go up, and I'll train you to be as good as my monkey circus."
Oath, throwing his spear as the reply.
XYZ_Richie caught it without any effort.
"Oh, thanks," he opened a black hole and inserted the spear into the hole.
"No!" Oath didn't anticipate it.
"Yes!" He snapped his fingers. The black hole closed down.
Oath knelt his feet on the ground. He punched the ground. "Shit! Shit!"
"Oooh, someone is getting angry. Don't worry, I'll make sure you enter Nirvana," the god instantly teleported next to him.
He cut his hand with the web, and soon Oath rolled his body on the ground. Blood spilled,and he's holding his amputated hand.
It was too much of a pain. Oath tried to stand up. But as he knelt, the god was by his side.
He held a sword summoned from his black hole and readied the sword to cut Oath's head.
"Any last words?" The god smiled sinisterly at the helpless young boy.
Oath looked up towards this moronic god.
"You are-"
"Oops, sorry, you should speak faster, boy!" The god skewered his body with the sharp sword. "I thought you didn't want to say anything. Hey, now, c'mon. Spit it out, boy!" He then laughed hysterically.
Blood came out of his body. Oath opened his hands and looked at the bleak-red blood.
"Is this it? Is this how I will die?"
Oath puked out blood from his mouth. The salty taste of death lingered in the air.
"Hey, let's have a chat before you die! Which part of the woman that you like the most? I want to walk her in the park later."
"Jisu, Maxwell, everyone ... forgive me. I am truly a good-for-nothing human being. I really want to live. I want to pay out this grudge. They made us live our lives for a fake purpose. They took us up just to live as dogs. I need to fight. I need to fight. I need to fight."
Your health is dropping. You are in danger.
The system command warned him.
"Who are these gods? Where do they live? Why are gods cruel like this?"
Your health is dropping.
Oath could see that his Health point is decreasing rapidly. It soon will turn to zero.
"Thank me later, boy. You are in Nirvana."

HP : 0
You died.
Oath's body collapsed. Without any power to sustain it, the young boy fell to the ground helplessly.
"Ah, what a poor young peasant. If only you joined me," the god lifted up his sword and shook off the blood from it.
"Disgusting, blood," he walked, leaving the boy behind.
"No, they are not god. They will never be a god."
The Orb of Old Manifesto has been activated. All conditions are met.
"They are the false rulers who don't deserve to be gods."
Your status has greatly improved. You reached a temporary unison with the Logos. You have acquired new abilities.
System command has been renewed.
"That's it, Oath," a familiar voice.
"Maxwell?"
"We will fight this false god together."
Oath stood up, and he came back to his senses.
"I'll explain everything later. For now, we need to kill that bastard."
Oath opened his arm. Airi emerged to appear on his hand, it gradually appearing after a radiant-sparkling scene embodying its figure.
Firebird.
A Logos skill has activated.
A symbol emerged, encircling Oath's place. With a throw, the spear on Oath's right hand embodied a flame-like figure resembling the Phoenix Bird. It launched with a godly speed. The enormous fire burned the target immediately.
"What just happened?!" XYZ_Richie was caught off guard.
He got burned by the attack. The fire caused a catastrophic scene in the middle of the ruins.
Oath's eyes become fully white. His hair also transforms into white and waves enigmatically due to the aura he has.
"I'll make sure you taste my wrath," Oath opened his hand. The spear once again returned to him, spawning radiantly.
