I became a legion lich

198 Human gods

Eishin’s expression looked disinterested at first, but his eyes widened when he saw the demi-human ships. When he noticed the special features of demi-humans, his body involuntarily froze.

He clenched his fists tightly as his eyes narrowed into two slits of light. His body started to shake and along with it the entire divine palace.

The divine palace’s enchantments were created to complement Eishin’s abilities and responded to his thoughts.

The citizens of the capital were startled to see the palace shake and knelt on the ground, fearing that Eishin’s wrath would fall on them.

“Are they back? Answer me Eirin, THEY are back?” Eishin asked as everything around him shook. His voice was calm and his posture unchanged, but it was obvious he was struggling to maintain control.

“We don’t know. These demi-humans are nowhere near the level of ancient giants, but it is undeniable that they are recovering their ancient bloodlines. I don’t know whether or not it is possible to fully restore the bloodline, but I cannot deny the possibility that giants can come back.” Eirin spoke slowly, watching Eishin’s expression.

“How is it possible? I’ve made sure to kill every giant in the past and the giant blood in demihumans is extremely weak, how is it possible for them to regain their old bloodlines??” Eishin clenched his teeth, snarling every word.

“That’s not what matters right now. It’s a fact that the demi-humans are getting their bloodline back and I came here to assure you that you wouldn’t do anything.” Eirin spoke and stood up, putting herself between Eishin and the door as if that would stop him.

“How dare you tell me that? You know what they did to me in the past and the danger they pose to humanity. And you dare tell me to stand by and do nothing?” Eishin spoke as if she were a traitor.

.....

He released a white aura that forced all surrounding angels to their knees, but Eirin continued to glare at him. The angels entered the throne room after the palace began to shake, but they were unable to do anything to contain Eishin’s fury.

“I know what you’ve been through, but that doesn’t mean you can break our non-intervention agreement. If you get involved and try to wipe out the evolved demi-humans, Illum and Kalesi will definitely get involved as well.” Eirin spoke in a cold voice, releasing an aura of her own to counter the light aura.

Unlike Eishin’s aura, Eirin’s aura was multicolored like a rainbow, but her power was equal to Eishin’s.

The colliding auras caused the floor and walls to crack, pushing all the angels against the walls.

“Those two know the danger the giants pose and will not oppose the extermination of the giants!” Eishin screamed furiously, his body turning into a mass of light and turning back to flesh.

Eishin was a being made of light and could change shape at will.

“We both know that’s not true. Unlike us who care about humanity, they care about the balance of all races. Illum believes that all races are important while Kalesi believes that the filthy undead can coexist with the living. ” Eirin felt disgusted at the thought of seeing humans walking alongside the undead.

She knew this was possible and it was a reality on the Sytrer continent by the infiltrators they managed to capture, but she couldn’t accept it. Most species had racial abilities, greater affinity for magic, or physical prowess, while humans lacked racial abilities or any redeeming characteristics.

The unique characteristic of humans was that they lacked the limitations of other species. Humans could use all elements of magic, runesmithing, use skills and fight physically. They weren’t the best, but they could do anything and exploit other races’ weaknesses to win.

But that would change when other species competed with them. No matter how hard they tried, humans could never use magic like elves, runesmith like dwarves, fight like demi-humans, or have the physical abilities of beast people.

Humans would lose their place at the top of the world and become the slaves or servants of those most powerful. And that was something Eirin and Canan could not allow. Unlike Eishin, they harbored no hatred for other species, but they could not accept the world Kalesi and Illum craved.

‘But if we want a future where humanity reigns, we need time to develop. Unlike long-lived species, shorter-lived humans are always working to develop.’ Canan spoke in his mind.

‘I know. If the Gods start fighting, all the effort we put into development will be lost. We know it, Eishin knows it, but anger is making him blind. We need to make him realize the truth.’ Eirin agreed with him.

Unfortunately, Eishin was thinking of something else.

“If they fail to recognize the danger the giants pose, then that’s their problem. I will exterminate these giants and anyone who tries to stop me will die along with them!” Eishin yelled in rage, a teleportation crystal flying swiftly into his hand as the palace changed shape and formed a corridor straight outside.

“Do not you dare!” Eirin stepped in the way and conjured a hexa elemental barrier around the two of them to stop him from leaving, but it was to no avail.

The large-scale enchantments of the divine palace activated and attacked the barrier from the outside, while Eishin attacked from the inside. Small cracks appeared across the barrier, but that was enough for Eishin.

Its body was made of light and it split into several small sparks of light that flowed through the cracks, before passing through the cracks and returning to normal outside.

With a thought, he charged the teleportation crystal and stepped forward, disappearing in a flash of light and a sonic boom.

Eishin didn’t know where the island was where the evolved demihumans attacked, but that didn’t matter. Eishin was targeting the Doravon continent, where he knew the source of the evolved demi-humans was and the culprit behind it all.

“Shit! Why does this guy have to be so stubborn?” Eirin complained, deactivating the barrier and flying through the passage Eishin left.

The angels pressed against the walls recovered within seconds and followed close behind Eirin.

“Tch! He’s already far away, let’s go after him before it’s too late.” Canan spoke through Eirin’s mouth.

“Yes, I’ll leave it to you.” Eirin spoke and ceded control to Canan, causing her body to change shape. Luckily, she was wearing leather pants and a shirt, so he wouldn’t have to waste time changing clothes or embarrass himself by chasing after him in a skirt.

“...” He took a deep breath, focusing on himself. Her rainbow aura started to change as the light outshined the other elements, his body starting to glow like a light bulb.

He guided the excess light and quickly fed the crystal his newfound holy mana. Canan quickly disappeared in a flash of light, the sonic boom knocking over the angels who had just recovered.

Canan quickly returned to normal, his core quickly returning to normal.

**********

Eishin left the continent’s border within seconds and continued heading towards the Doravon continent for a few seconds, before suddenly stopping. The teleportation crystal he was using wasn’t able to cross the distance between continents and stopped midway.

He tried to power the crystal again, but a purple orb appeared a few hundred meters away, interrupting him.

“Tch. They found me faster than I expected.” Eishin clucked his tongue in annoyance and gave up on the idea of advancing. Unlike Eirin, the person who was approaching would not only try to stop him, but would seriously attack him and kill him if he lowered his guard.

“What do you think you are doing, Eishin? You are not allowed to leave your territory.” Illum spoke as soon as the purple light disappeared, looking coldly at Eishin. Unlike his descendants, he was able to travel the entire world with his avatar, although he couldn’t use the mana of his core being so far away, only the amber energy he accumulated over the millennia.

Illum had his eye on the Adula continent ever since his spies confirmed the evolved demihumans. He knew that Eishin would fly into a rage and try to kill him with his bare hands, so he was prepared to intervene as soon as necessary.

“Stay out of it, stick. You know what those things are and that they need to be killed. These things pose a danger to humanity, the lesser races you defend, and even the filthy undead that lizard protects. ” Eishin spoke while glaring at him angrily.

“Do not impose your fears on me, coward. It is true that in the past the giants were unrivaled tyrants and warriors, but times have changed. The races have grown a lot since then and are not as defenseless as they were.” Illum mocked the expression of anger and hatred on Eishin’s face.

“Furthermore, the evolved demihumans possess only a small fraction of the power that the ancient giants possessed.” Illum kept talking, but Eishin didn’t back down.
