"No, I don't want to die!"
In the thoroughly chaotic city, smashing, looting, and arson were rampant.
Ten days, only a short ten days remained; they had only ten days to live.
Do not insult God; if you insult God, your life will immediately vanish.
Since they were going to die anyway, these sinful people went completely mad, thoroughly unleashing their true nature and ugliness.
At this time, Black Smoke began to appear in the city, indicating that shops and houses were being set on fire.
The convenience store clerk's face was contorted with madness. "Burn it, burn it all! Since we're going to die in ten days, then burn everything, burn it all so no one gets anything, ha ha ha."
The boss did not stop him; instead, he gesticulated wildly, encouraging him.
"Ah ha ha ha, well done, burn it all, burn everything. Not just mine, but everyone else's too."
"Stop it, you bastards! Water Ball Technique!"
Those who had received a 'Divine Blessing' were furiously attacking the crazed sinners.
Boom!
Gradually, the first explosion sounded, caused by a car being set on fire.
"You damnable woman! Why do you get to live?!" A hooligan covered in tattoos furiously lunged at a woman.
"Ah!" The woman screamed, clutching her child tightly, but the pain did not come. When she opened her eyes, she saw the hooligan who attacked her looking as if he had seen a ghost, snot running down his face.
"God—"
Only then did the woman realize that she had a golden light on her body.
"Ah ah ah ah—" The hooligan wet his pants in fear, screaming hysterically as he ran away.
Most sinners only bully the weak and fear the strong, let alone those protected by God.
"Thank you, God," the woman said, pressing her palms together in devout gratitude.
Human society entered a complete collapse, with the half of humanity deemed sinners frantically unleashing their final madness.
Those who received a 'Divine Blessing' continuously used their abilities to stop these mad sinners.
The 'neutral' people hid everywhere, but they weren't very afraid, because they found that God was protecting them from harm.
Many of those evil people were also powerful; most of them were ISO-registered Promoters, and they mostly possessed considerable martial prowess.
Human martial arts in this world had reached a level of transcending the ordinary; the powerful ones were comparable to the Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps before they became Family.
Xia Wei walked down the street, observing the chaotic, socially disordered city, where some sinners were frantically destroying cars in his sight.
"Truly filthy souls, even demons would disdain them."
Xia Wei's expression was calm.
This was merely his declaration to the human world, and it had already driven them to such madness.
But, this was not enough; what he wanted was the despair of these sinful people's minds collapsing.
The 'Cursed Children' had endured so much pain and despair, so all that pain and despair should now be returned to them.
Therefore, the Great Judgment would not occur all at once; instead, over these ten days, one-tenth of the sinners would be eliminated each day.
He would make them accept despair with their eyes, their ears, and their breath.
Continuously guessing which day they would be eliminated, allowing despair and fear to magnify infinitely.
"Only this way can I feel appeased." Xia Wei curled his lips, then quickly patted his cheeks with both hands: "I can't smile like this; it makes me look like a villain."
At this moment, a live broadcast of the Holy Son appeared on all the large screens across the entire Tokyo Area.
"All citizens of the Tokyo Area, please listen to my upcoming speech."
All the people in the Tokyo Area paused what they were doing at this moment, involuntarily looking at the large screens.
"Holy Son!"
"Tch! So what about the Holy Son? At this point, whatever she says won't control me!"
"Anyway, I'm going to die in ten days, so what if it's the Holy Son!"
"Ah ha ha ha, fight, slash!"
"God can no longer bear to watch humanity continuously commit sins."
"This is not God's indifference, but humanity's own transgressions."
"What a joke! Humanity's own transgressions! Damnable Holy Son!"
"I thought she would say something, but it's just nonsense; even the Holy Son has the same face as those council members!"
"What right do you have to say it's humanity's own transgressions!"
"The gastrea virus was not a punishment from God; it was caused by humanity's own experiments going out of control."
"God has silently watched the world, observing whether humanity, having committed such sins, could be redeemed."
"But, humanity disappointed God."
"The cause was the appearance of the 'Cursed Children'; this was God's test for humanity."
"The content of the test was humanity's kindness and morality."
"Unfortunately, humanity failed the test."
"We abandoned the 'Cursed Children,' treated them as tools, and wantonly harmed them. Humanity's ugliness and depravity completely disappointed God."
"Hence, the 'Great Judgment' came into being."
The Holy Son's voice echoed throughout the entire Tokyo Area. All humans, whether sinners or others, completely stopped and looked up at the large screen.
"God is preparing to cleanse all humans who failed the test with the 'Great Judgment,' to cleanse humanity's sins and depravity."
"To those who could not pass God's test, I express my deep regret."
"What?! Who knew? Who knew those 'Cursed Children' were God's test?!" A convenience store owner, who had once deliberately slandered a 'Cursed Children' for stealing, leading to the 'Cursed Children' being shot by the police, knelt on the ground, clutching his head, tears and snot streaming down his face.
"Test kindness and morality? In such a cruel world, only by ruthless means and the law of the jungle can one survive! Why is that sinful?"
"They were harmed simply because they were weak!"
An Initiator's eyes were bloodshot like a bull's, glaring venomously at his own Initiator.
The little loli calmly looked at him; he had not been good to her at all, constantly exploiting her, and when he was in a bad mood, he would curse her, saying that if it weren't for her gastrea gene's 'Salamander,' she would have been beaten to death long ago.
"What kind of look is that?!" The Initiator's last shred of sanity broke, and he pulled out a pistol, repeatedly pulling the trigger at her.
Bang bang bang bang—but a golden light instantly appeared on her body, blocking all the bullets, and the golden bullets dropped one by one at her feet.
"God," she said, ignoring the Initiator who was continuously shooting at her, crossing her fingers together and holding them to her chest.
The Holy Son's speech continued.
"All you favored by God who have received the 'Divine Blessing,' I am the Saintess appointed by God."
"Please join me in re-establishing God's order."
