Ancient God in the Modern World

Base 477 is a base that was built in the later years of human society. It was founded by the Warbringer Auction House.

Indeed, bases as such are a bit common. They were given as meritorious awards to an organization or a person. Of course, such an award cannot be given readily. Furthermore, whoever receives it must be affiliated with the big organizations.

It is not a requirement to receive one; however, the base might not prosper if nor for the intervention of the big organizations. Of course, the military, the one who gave the award, would help them but not entirely to the point that they will shoulder all their problems.

Base 477 is where the headquarters of the Warbringer Auction House was located. At the same time, the base is only exclusive to the Auction House's members and their families.

However, they do not reject businesses and tourists. In fact, this base is one of the finest bases that humans had. At almost all times, it receives a huge influx of people coming for business or relaxation.

It contained many amusements that the Auction House offers. At the same time, this base offers various products that could attract the eyes of the people.

Truth to be told, although the Warbringer Auction House is called as such, it was not entirely an auction house. It is more of a business firm.

Meanwhile, Amor, the Demons of Lust is one of the businesswomen in the base. However, at the same time, her business is unlike the others.

She operates a pleasure house. it was rather the same as the one that the temple where Izabel and Niku had a showdown.

However, this one is a lot more civilized. The identity of the Demons of lust is not publicly known here. All that they knew is that it was managed and owned by a lady.

On the night before Izabel and the others raided Amor's temple, Amor is sipping on his tea as she was observing her contracts.

Knock! Knock!

Amidst her deep thoughts, she heard a knock on her door.

"Come in!"

Amor's voice had a charm that could captivate men and women alike. It was very pleasant to the ear.

"Amor, have you done the preparation?"

A youth entered at the youth and asked her. In normal times, she would have killed this youth. However, she did not.

Although this youth looked scrawny, she knew who he is.

"All done, Kurkoken" she replied with a smile. Then asked, "what happened to you?"

Kurkoren possessed a human and she could see that his spirit form is rather weak at the moment.

"That Divine Spirit had plenty of Divine energy," he casually replied and served himself a cup of tea before sitting down.

"Could we still defeat him?"

"Yes, he only has the strength of an admiral. However, for some reason, he had plenty of Divine energy."

Amor was amused by Kurkoren's answer and was rather doubtful.

"Are you saying that he could have killed you if not for the limitation of his body?"

"Indeed."

They were not oblivious of the limitations of the Divine Spirits when possessing a mortal.

"That would be a problem, then. Do you think I can handle him in the Arena?"

Amor asked which made Kurkoren think for a while before answering.

"Probably. The Arena after all is created to deal with the newly awakened Divine Spirits."

???

Back to the present???

Kurkoken had already left Base 477 while Amor is preparing to summon the arena.

"Arena, I hope you will not fail me." She mumbled.

Then she took out a dagger cut her wrist. Meanwhile, she felt pain because the dagger did not only cut her wrist but also her spirit.

"Argh!"

The cut might not be big, but she felt so much pain. It was contrary to the pleasure she would feel during s**.

Then, she mumbled some words inaudible to the human ear.

That went on for a while before she stopped. And, when she did, she felt a link in her connected to something big and illusory.

"I am now connected to the arena," she mumbled with a wide grin.

Then, it was at this moment when the array from the Divine Mark was formed which glowed in white light towards the temple intending to cleanse the filth of the Demons as asked by Izabel.

"No matter how far you are, as long as there is a scent of your authority, you will be pulled into the Arena," Amor mumbled with a wide grin.

Grunt!

At this very moment, she felt pain as her contract with Niku was destroyed.

Yes, Niku died in the temple.

Meanwhile, because the contract is part of her spirit, its destruction also injured her. However, she did not think much of this because she was about to succeed in what she was doing.

Whoosh!

Her spirit form disappeared from her body and entered a place akin to void. It does not contain anything. There is no light. Not even darkness. Time is chaotic. However, the space is very stable.

Well, there is darkness in there but it was due to Amor's presence.

Meanwhile, not long after light finally appeared. It was brought by Allen.

Indeed, whatever this place is, it managed to pull Allen.

However, Allen's glow in this place is slowly becoming stronger the longer he stays.

"What is this place?" he asked as he stared intently at the Demon in front of him.

However, the Demons of Lust in front of him is stupefied.

"What's wrong with you? Are you not a newly awakened Divine Spirit?"

Amor was confused. She could not understand is wrong with the Divine Spirit in front of him.

It was like the Divine Spirit is charging up. But that should be logically impossible since this place is not the real world.

All of their connection, be it her contracts or Allen's Divine Marks and temple and such were lost.

"Why??? is your Divine energy getting denser?"

It was not sure if this was due to her curiosity or due to her fear.. But at this moment, she was at a loss.
