Ancient God in the Modern World

A demonic array appeared in the sky. Then, the golden egg disappeared with it.

"What the..?"

If Allen could not get the egg, his sacrifices would all be for naught.

"Is this all for naught?"

However, in the next second, he took back what he said.

"Shit!"

The demonic array atop the sky glowed with a purplish demonic hue. Then, unknowingly, the demonic energy surged from within and condensed into a spirit form.

However, Allen knew that this is not a real spirit form of a Demon. It was just a projection. To be precise demonic projection.

"A demonic projection?"

Allen squinted his eyes as he looked at the Demon, he reckoned that the real body of the Demon must be powerful. Compared to the Demon, Allen would be akin to an infant.

Meanwhile, it took only a blink of an eye for the Demon projection to condense.

It looked at Allen. Then, it flapped its bat-like wings attacked Allen as he dived down.

From Allen's perspective, the Demon looked like a dragon man. It had horns and a dragon tail. Its lower body is akin to the lower body of a satyr. And, dragon wings.

Allen's projection at the bottom while the Demon's above. In a blink of an eye, the fists of the two projections hit each other. Their collision created a shockwave in the air that made the clouds part circularly.

After that, they parted and looked at each other.

"The information from the Chaos Demon is indeed right. There is a weakened Divine Spirit in this world."

The Demon seemed to be delighted to see a weakened Divine Spirit.

It is a pleasure for the Demons and Divine Spirits alike to kill their opponents. And, the Demon will have an easy kill.

"Prepare to die! HAHAHA!"

The Demon laughed maniacally as he dashed towards Allen.

"Arrogant lowly creature."

However, Allen did not back down. This world could be said to be his home ground. Albeit weak his foundation is on this world. Most of his followers are in here and he temples and shrines in this place.

"Link!"

Allen connected to his Divine Marks and used the Divine energies on them. furthermore, he also depleted a Divine crystal.

The fight between Demon and Divine Spirit could be considered brute. They would simply try to drain each other's energies and whoever, was depleted first would be the one defeated.

Of course, the Divine Spirits could use their authority to deal with the chaos from the Demons.

"Let there be light!" Allen said.

Then, suddenly, he shone in a piercing light akin to the sun.

The light brought life to the barren desert where the Egyptian tomb was. Plants grew and the harsh hot wing became cooler. Then, the humidity of the air increase making the place a lot colder.

However, its greatest effect is that the chaos brought by the Demon was disappearing.

The lines in the demonic array that are supporting the Demon's projection are starting to decrease.

"It seemed that the chaos Demon is wrong. You are not weak, but it matters not. We will send more to obliterate you. You should not be in this place."

The Demon said; then, it had decided to give up its demonic projection.

"That is the Demon of wrath," Allen mumbled.

The Demon of wrath, obviously, wrathful.

"It seemed that the days of humanity will be a lot harder."

However, Allen liked it this way. With the presence of the Demons, he could get more followers.

Meanwhile, the Plague River Church is staring atop the clouds. They were full of reverence.

Then, as they saw Allen, with the image of the Plague Priest, they kneeled.

They knew that it was not the Plague Priest. It was their Lord, the Divine Spirit of Life and Death.

"The prestigious Divine Spirit of Life and Death, you have graced us of your presence," they said in unison.

"Rise, my followers."

Hearing what Allen said, they lifted their heads however, they stayed on their knees.

"The Plague Priest is already resting on my kingdom and he is waiting for you there."

After Allen said that, he dissolved the remaining Divine energy in Plague Priest's body and let it fly towards the Plague River Church. The Divine energy cleansed their bodies and their soul.

…

Meanwhile, amidst the desert, a beautiful melody was wafting in the desert air. It was very pleasant to hear. It could calm one's soul and let you forget all loans.

Milo and Cyril, on the decree of their Lord, carried away Cleopatra's golden egg. Milo did not use his teleportation ability and walked with their foot.

Well, he used it to get away. After that, they started walking.

At this moment, they were attracted by the melody that was drifting in the air.

Without much hesitation, they followed its source only to find a small oasis.

The oasis had trees and a wooden cabin. Then, atop the cabin, smoke is flowing out.

"It's getting dark, should we spend the night here?" Milo asked.

Meanwhile, he did not get an answer from Cyril.

"Hey, are you okay?"

Cyril pointed at the cabin and said, "one of our Lord's bearers."

Through his Energy Eyes, he saw Allen's Divine Mark on the man.

Then, suddenly, the melody stopped and was replaced by footsteps.

A few more moments, the door of the wooden cabin opened and revealed a man.

"Come here, our Lord, the Divine Spirit of Life and Death told me you'd come."

Indeed, the man is none other than Cold Wind, the Fossegrim.

"Feel at home, help yourselves," Cold Wind said; then, he continued playing a gentle melody to ease Milo and Cyril's fatigues.

Moments later, he stopped playing as he noticed that they are already asleep.

He looked at them for a while, then mumbled, "so fortunate of you. Our Lord had chosen you."

…

Meanwhile, Allen had decided that he won't be leaving the Asgardian realm for the time being.

Just like most of the time, he was sitting at the branch of the Tree of Life. But on the next second, he stood and said, "Life, I accept your offer…"
