Chapter 115 - Sin

A giant hand, covered in brass armor and imbued with a mighty divine power capable of dragging countless worlds into the abyss of war and destruction, furiously invaded this world, enacting the Blood God's wrath.

Even though this was merely a projection of Slaanesh's false palace, all of Slaanesh's Greater Daemons and daemons within the true Slaanesh's divine realm simultaneously heard the deafening, angry war cries of countless ferocious, crimson daemons from another supreme divine realm in the distant Warp.

"Blood for the Blood God!"

"Skulls for the Skull Throne!"

The moment the giant hand appeared, tearing through space, it immediately slapped Slaanesh, who stood before Kenmyo Isayama, without a hint of hesitation.

With unimaginable supreme divine power, the Blood God's slap traversed inconceivable distances in space and dimensions in time; it was utterly unstoppable and unavoidable!

Even the entire projected temple of Slaanesh was tottering on the brink of destruction from the mere aftershocks.

However, that terrifying entity disdained sneak attacks, so its movements were slowed down as if in slow motion playback.

It seemed to be simply informing you:

"Bastard, I am now going to openly slap you. You better be ready to take it."

Khorne's actions were always this overbearing and reckless, even when facing Slaanesh, one of The Four Great Chaos Gods of the Warp.

Slaanesh's projected body didn't even appear as large as Khorne's palm, and the instant of contact, Slaanesh's upper body was instantly blown apart!

The entire being was directly reduced to mincemeat, and Slaanesh's pink pleasure power was also instantly shattered and dissipated. For a moment, flesh and blood flew everywhere, a truly gruesome sight.

Kenmyo Isayama hadn't even had time to react when the scene before him suddenly changed. The destructive power of that terrifying slap had ripped off the ceiling of the ornate Slaanesh temple (projection) above, leaving it in utter disarray.

Kenmyo Isayama was stunned by the utterly overbearing display of power from Khorne, the Blood God. After all, Slaanesh was on the same side as him.

But who could blame Khorne? Among The Four Great Chaos Gods of the Warp, Khorne despised Slaanesh's effeminate nature the most, with Tzeentch, that bird-man, coming in second.

Tzeentch, a schemer who resorted to magic instead of honorable duels, was also disliked by Khorne, but at least his goal was victory in war.

Slaanesh, however, only viewed war and combat as means to achieve pleasure and indulgence. What was a warrior's glory? Could it get him high?

Simply put, imagine this: you and your brothers are bravely fighting the enemy, enjoying the passion and glory of battle. Then suddenly, someone appears on the battlefield with a severed limb and starts "getting high." What would you do?

Naturally, you'd kill that son of a bitch.

As the Warmaster, Khorne naturally abhorred Slaanesh the most when he saw war being so desecrated. Now, upon seeing Slaanesh preparing to corrupt a promising young man, he immediately flew into a rage.

Kenmyo Isayama was numb to the forms of power displayed by the gods on their battlefield.

The scene before him was instantly torn in two: on one side was an endless ocean of blood-colored skulls, like a terrifying sea of corpses and blood, where a terrifying entity in grotesque brass armor sat upon a colossal, blood-soaked brass throne, large as a mountain, with a massive demonic sword at his side.

"Damn mad dog, are you declaring full-scale war on me?!"

Slaanesh's shattered torso reformed, gradually returning to his original appearance: one half the delicate charm of a woman, the other the ruggedness of a tough man, his tongue flicking out like a snake.

The exquisite face Slaanesh had previously shown Kenmyo Isayama vanished, revealing his true visage. The art style began to shift towards horror. His pale purple skin was covered in forbidden runes of corruption, and his hermaphroditic features began to manifest. This brutal, terrifying entity, capable of making an ordinary person lose their sanity with a single glance, was the true form of a Chaos God.

Behind Slaanesh, the symbol of the Lord of Pleasure emerged, and his entire being radiated power capable of plunging all life in several star systems into a hell of pleasure. His divine power erupted ferociously, and his purple, flame-like long hair billowed in the wind. Slaanesh too entered a state of fury; his aura had reached its peak, ready to contend with the Blood God!

Facing this effeminate being, Khorne, the Blood God, didn't even have the interest to rise from his Skull Throne. He simply remained seated, gripping the skull-studded brass greatsword beside him with one hand.

In Khorne's world, there were no crooked paths, only the sincerity of immediate action when words failed.

As for Kenmyo Isayama, how could he possibly remain there? When Slaanesh's projection was shattered by Khorne's slap, he realized that Slaanesh's restraint on him had also vanished. This meant he could escape this area that was about to become a "gods' battlefield." So, seeing the situation turn dire, Kenmyo Isayama immediately logged off.

However, Kenmyo Isayama, who could provoke two Warp Big Boss to furious confrontation, was truly a man of deep sin.

The last one so deeply sinful was probably Sanguinius, the Primarch of the Blood Angels.

As Kenmyo Isayama, playing the role of a "femme fatale," withdrew from the battlefield, he suddenly discovered that Tossak-Rome's memory palace had not been destroyed by Slaanesh's corruption. He immediately packaged and took Tossak-Rome's memories with him.

When Kenmyo Isayama's consciousness returned to the ruined Hive World of Abel, he released Tossak-Rome's tightly clutched head.

The traitorous Inquisitor's body had barely fallen to the ground when it mysteriously began to spontaneously combust. Pink flames devoured Tossak-Rome's tragically deceased body, quickly reducing it to a pile of dust.

"[Side Quest 1: Death of the Inquisitor (Completed)]"

"[You gained 8000 Honor Points]"

But this was not Kenmyo Isayama's doing; it was a contingency plan by the masterminds behind these deceased Battle Sisters and this Inquisitor. Upon Tossak-Rome's death, they would destroy his body without leaving any trace.

However, it didn't matter. Kenmyo Isayama had already obtained Tossak-Rome's memories, which had transformed into a diary composed of psychic energy.

When he saw the horrifying murder scene composed of scattered limbs, severed arms, and several nuns lying dead in pools of blood with wide-open eyes, the surrounding silence was deathly, yet Kenmyo Isayama absurdly felt a hint of familiarity.

No one in the world would believe that in this desolate, abandoned Hive World, an Inquisitor of the Inquisition almost ascended to Daemonhood by Slaanesh of the Warp, becoming the youngest and weakest of all Chaos Gods' chosen.

Every minute and every second during his time with Slaanesh felt longer than a year to Kenmyo Isayama.

He was now so exhausted that he didn't even have the mental energy to look at Tossak-Rome's memories, as if Slaanesh had drained him completely.

So, more than anything, it was mental fatigue and pain. The injuries Kenmyo Isayama sustained in the Chaos God's mental world would affect reality. His power armor was covered in cracks, and his Bolter and chainsword were completely destroyed.

Even now, when Kenmyo Isayama breathed, his lungs still burned.

Kenmyo Isayama felt endless dread. A C-rank simulation actually carried the risk of being targeted by a Chaos God. If it weren't for the intervention of another Chaos God, he would have been forced to abandon the millions of simulation points he had accumulated for so long. To say he didn't feel heartache was impossible.

"It's a good thing I don't have to become Slaanesh's chosen, neither male nor female. That's truly a relief."

Kenmyo Isayama looked at the Inquisitor's black ship, which had suddenly appeared in the endless starry sky, and showed a helpless smile.
