"My name is Fesya. Who are you? Are you the friend of the intruder? Why are you attacking us?" She asked as she introduced herself. Following that were a bunch of questions.

"You're going to know who I am sooner than later. I'm the intruder, only myself."

Zero was none other than Narukami. He had a powerful illusion. Tricking the Leader was anything but a trivial manner, let alone these guys which barely reach Level 6.

There were two in Level 8 though. It was the woman, Fesya and Elder Drey.

Anyway, Narukami had a reason why he didn't bring those two names here, as they could be in danger.

"Regarding why I attack you. How about you consider the things the organization had done this entire time?" spoke Narukami as he gave them a clue. Their expressions stiffened upon hearing his clue.

Indeed, what they did was mischievous and hideous. It was normal in fact if they get a punishment, it would not be if they did not.

And now, the time had arrived but was they willing to be punished like an obedient child?

Hell no! With their dignity and pride, they could not accept it!

More so that the punishment was something than death! It was obvious what that was going to be.

"Don't joke around, Zero!" One of them could not accept what was going on. The reality was hard.

If the intruder was able to disguise himself as Zero. Then what happened to the original Zero?

Only one answer, the original Zero was dead! There is no other explanation! But, they could not accept it, for the fact that Zero was quite powerful and hard to handle, as his ability was tricky to handle.

Probably he was the only one who could face the intruder aside from the Leader.

Unfortunately, he was killed and it was unexpected.

"Are you serious? You know Z?! Man, that dude is a pain in the butt! He always has this gloomy and solemn face, why is that?" Ryu pondered.

In front of him was a man wearing a tuxedo, long hat, and had a cane lying down on his right side.

He exuded the air of a scholar. He was none other than Zero!

When Narukami trapped them in an illusion, which was the one that made them think they were in the real world but was not.

Narukami sneaked behind Zero as the others in illusion. Before Zero got kidnapped, he saw the upper echelons as though they were dazing.

He was confused and gradually became cautious. However, it was too late for that, as Narukami quickly sent him to his spatial world before he realized it.

And when he did, Zero looked around for a few seconds and realized his surroundings had already changed.

All black without light. Zero hurriedly raised his guard to the max with his eyes narrowed.

"Where am I?" He asked himself, feeling bewildered and a bit anxious. He had been suddenly transported to a strange, dark place! Who would not?

"Rest assured, I'll not hurt you if you answer my questions truthfully." Narukami's voice sounded from the dark. It was quite mysterious to Zero, as the voice was the one who did this.

He did not even have the chance to struggle despite the fact that he was one of the strongest upper echelons.

Surely, this person was someone extremely strong and all-powerful. If this person was the intruder, it was not weird at all that the Fallen Nightless reached this terrible predicament.

"You're the intruder?" Zero pondered, as he was making sure.

"Is that the first thing you should ask? Aren't you worried about your friends?" Narukami returned the question.

Zero chuckled before shaking his head to the left and right, "Friends? Oh please, they are a bunch of useless people that only know how to speak at the top of their lungs and barely can do anything.

"If not for me, it's unknown what will happen to them."

The last decision was always decided by him after all. If he was not there, how else were they going to decide? By asking the Leader's opinion?

If in every meeting that happened, the upper echelons were not dependent and had little use.

It might be better for the Leader to disband the upper echelons as he was the one who decided in the end.

Of course, the upper echelons were adults. They probably came up with something if Zero never existed. However, that did not deny the fact that they, in Zero's eyes at the very least, were babies.

"Can I take that from you that you don't care about your friends?" Narukami asked.

Zero snorted, "we're not, to begin with, but as one of the upper echelons. Don't you think it's too arrogant for you to bring me here, to your hideout?" 

Zero believed this dark place was somewhere on Earth. The hideout of this intruder but in truth, it was nowhere close.

"Don't worry about me. You should worry yourself instead," Narukami replied.

"That won't do. Although I did not like my colleagues. I am still part of the Fallen Nightless and my belief in Him is no worse than them.

"Taking you down is my job. Come out silently and remove the blindness in my eyes."

His tone was confident. After some thought, he believed the darkness in his vision was coming from some sort of ability instead of a dark room.

Narukami laughed in his mind upon this. He said something wrong so confidently, it was quite something. He was curious to see his face when learning the truth.

Would he be ashamed or feel awkward about himself?

"If I tell you that your vision isn't from any ability but instead a world filled with darkness. Will you believe it?" Narukami said.

"There's no way a world filled with darkness exists. All living creatures and plants rely heavily on the sun and water. If you ask me, I don't.

"I think a world like that is a planet abandoned by the gods." He shook his head.

If Narukami had his expression back, the edge of his lips would slightly lift as he formed a smirk.

"What are you going to say if you meet that god?" Narukami suddenly asked. Zero wore a puzzled expression but reply nevertheless:

"I would ask what the inhabitants did to the point that the god was so enraged that He abandon the planet."

Narukami grunted in acknowledgment.

"Enough talking, show yourself and fight me fair and square. You heroes of justice are fond of this, right?"

"Sadly, I'm no hero. I'm just a man who does something I'm supposed to do. Your organization is big trash in the middle of the street but the people there are too lazy to clean it up. I'm the person who cleaned that up.

"Tell me, does a guy cleaning the trash in the middle of the road count as heroes?"

"What are you trying to say, here?"

"Wow, you're dumb. I thought you're smart. Figure out yourself, smart guy," said Narukami calmly as he mocked Zero.

"You're dead!" Zero was infuriated. Although his eyes were useless, he might as well rely on his other senses.

Against the odds, all of his senses get the same treatment! His expression contorted in fear as his complexity slightly turned pale.

"What did you do? Am I dead? Is this the afterlife?"

"Of course not. The afterlife isn't as dark as this."

"Then this place is–" he halted in the middle of his phrase as realization dawned upon him.

"Realized it now? This is my spatial world. I can do everything here. That's right, I am a god in this world."

"...a god…" Zero softly muttered and as soon as he did that. The ground above him suddenly rose as high as the mountain. It was too sudden and Zero had to avoid it by tilting his body to the back and retreating a few steps.

And these few steps were 10kms in total.

After successfully retreating, he panted heavily as he rested his hands on his knee.

He then lifted his head to see a hill and as if there was the sun. The sunlight shone upon it.

As the hill was in darkness, Zero could not tell how it looked but now. He perceived it.

A hill with green grass and flowers blooming like it was spring. Butterflies flapped their wings and the breeze of the wind passed through the flower field, flowers danced gracefully.

It was a magnificent scene. Zero lost words to say. No, he had a lot of words in his mind but he cannot say them out loud. It was unknown why.

Finally, after being silent for a few seconds, Zero uttered, "Amazing. So this is a god's creation? He never showed this."

At this moment too, his belief in Armageddon was greatly shaken. His purpose in life had entirely changed and he felt like a new world was opened in front of him.

Zero kneeled to the ground as he hit his head so hard that one could hear a loud thud.

"Please let me become your believer!"

"...eh?" Narukami was stunned foolishly as he blinked a few times in confusion.

Narukami was watching Zero from a distance as he was in the air. For him, the darkness here was no different than a day.

However, when Zero suddenly wanted to become his believer, he was shocked and his expression returned.
