"What is she doing?" The woman who had offered herself asked, but the elder shrugged, just as confused as she was, what they could not see was the very skies above their world open up, and the hand of light descend, in a mont they felt it though, like a wave of pressurised wind passed across the continent, they felt Dina's mana surge and collapse several tis, mimicking breath as it grew stronger with each exhale.
"What the hell is this awful feeling?"
"The birth of a new God, the last true Divine Birth was Master Vestic Two years ago, Seven if we count by your ti," Arla shook her head in dismay and turned to the forces again, finding several other people standing there, the elder's hands were packed with weapons. "Now, I am the only Cosmic being amongst us, yet, I am still not ready." She leaned her head glancing at their faces one after the other.
"I would rather not face the wrath of that one," One man spoke. "I have no intention of suffering like that, I repent, please, kill your way instead!" He lowered his head with his hands at his sides in acceptance. "Please, have rcy on us!" He kept his head low.
[A location has been prepared, Lady Amastacia,] Alpha alerted her privately.
"We beg of you!"
Several others exclaid in unison.
"Then, I will honour your wishes," Arla raised her hands, those who had not stepped forward and those who had; all of them vanished in a flash of crimson light appearing far away on a platform high in the sky while everyone else remained there, wondering what the hell just happened.
"I am in an extrely good mood right now, I give you a minute to say your farewells to each other and then, all that is alive will cease to be so." The elf announced resting her feet on the platform with them and gesturing with the sa feral grin on her face.
"Will it truly be painless?" One woman asked, slowly approaching with her weapon at her side. "Am I not going to feel a thing>" She asked again.
"You will feel a slight discomfort, sothing resembling sitting in a chair too long, I suppose," Arla's expression went ta as she stared at the woman. "Do you intend to comply though?" She raised her brow, staring at the gun.
"Of course, not," The woman who had been passively approaching suddenly charged forward, it was faster than Arla had expected, and raising her hand the woman changed trajectory mid-air demonstrating that she was one of the few amongst her people with the ability to fly. "What the hell do you take for? Lie down and Die? To a lesser being?!" She laughed, ergign on the oter side of the platforl and firing her weapon at Arla's head.
It ca as no shock to those who had given up that the Elf was able to not only percieve but also block the attack with her bare hand, it had literally happend just a few minutes before.
"Co on, you idiots, help out here, we can grab a ship and get away if we take her out and hurry about it!" The woman urged the others to react to her advance, but to her shock, not a single one of them moved a muscle, they all stood perfectly in the lines they had appeared in staring ar Arla without even batting an eye in her direction.
"They say it is always the kind ones that have the most cruel demons," The woman who had repented first mumbled seeing her fellow Vatui sinner crash into a thin wall of light and then try to turn and flee only to crash into another as a prism of light thin walls encircled and trapped her so quickly that she could hardly react to it.
"This woman acts on the orders of the Princess who carries the will of the Godslayer, Sol Vestic, if she refers to the new goddess as Kin then that must an she is the left hand to the Princess, it is foolish to pick fights without knowing who you are fighting.
She even went as far as offering us painless deaths for the terrible things we did, she is rciful, why would I try to fight her, have you no sha? Do you not feel guilt over what you have done?" One of the other repentants shook his head seeing the prism slowly ignite with black flas that began peeling the skin from her bones while she inaudibly scread and wiggled inside of it.
"I would rather die a honourabe death at the rciful hands of the left hand of Judgent than be killed with my sins still haunting , what I did is irredeemable." Another admitted.
"Then you have all accepted your fate?" Arla asked once more and they lowered their heads. "What about your farewells?"

"Vatui do not say goodbye to the dead, we will see each other again whether it be in tha heavens or hell." The first repentant woman answered and Arla nodded and raised her hands.
"Then, farewell, for now," She clasped her fists and simultaneously they all collapsed to the ground showing the sa symptoms that Kree displayed before their skin turned to dust and caved in on their empty husks. "What an unexpected day it has been-"
The elf froze, for a mont, just a mont, she felt Dina's soul stirr as their link was invaded by a foreign entity, and then as soon as it happened, the sensation disappeared.
"What was that?"
"The Godslayer has laid his hands on Dina's soul- she is not listening to reason, Arla, she is new divinity her current power is enough to destroy this entire Dyson Sphere several tis over, she is losing control!" Alpha appeared at her side.
"I do not have enough ti to evacuate everyone-"
"How dare he lay his hands on her soul!?"
Alpha thought that the most composed of the three could sohow diffuse the situstioin, but it shocked the System when even Arla imdiately lost her composure and began exuding torrents of violent mana, before she could utter another word, the elf was gone.
