Ning was confused for a moment. "Wait, my trial?" he asked as he looked around the room.
The many high-ranking figures of the human race were all looking at him with judgmental eyes.
There were men and women of various different features. Some were buff, and some were lean. Some had long hair while some were bald.
Their clothes also were as unique as they could possibly be, each one wearing robes that could buy continents in other lands
The Sky God, Old Brilliance that had just spoken up, was perhaps the most extravagant-looking figure in the whole room. His green and silver robe was covered in jade as well as a silver piece of rock that Ning was surprised to realize were Space stones.
'Goddamn! He's using Space Stones as jewelry,' Ning thought.
The Sky god also looked at him with highly judgmental and even angry eyes.
It only dawned on Alex what was happening when he saw the sneering look on the Sword God's face.
"Wait, surely you are not trying to judge me for attacking this man, right? He was the one that attacked me first. I didn't even kill him, to begin with," Ning said.
"You will remain quiet until asked to speak," the sky God said. New Brilliance went by her master's side and remained there as well. It seemed she was in on the situation as well.
"You tried to kill the Sword God, so we will judge you for attempting to kill him," the sky god said.
"Sword God, tell us what happened," the Sky God said.
"Yes, senior," Fire Grim stood up from his seat and started addressing the people that were around him.
"16 years ago, I went down to the Three Jewels continent after hearing about this Sage of Ten Thousand treasures who could make any type of treasure the people wanted," the sword god said. "I had wanted him to make me a sword that could help us kill the cockroach, but—"
"Wait, what do you mean by a cockroach?" the Sky God asked with a confused look.
"Ah, my apologies, senior. That is what the people on the battlefield have started to call the demon that simply won't die," the sword god explained.
"Ah, him," the Sky god realized who he was talking about. "I understand. He is a cockroach. However, we have killed his predecessors before, we can kill him too."
"I am sure you can, senior," the sword god said. "But the last times we did so, we had to lose many of our own people. So, this time I wanted to kill the demon without any casualties. You see I had a plan on how to kill this one without losing any men."
"Oh? How?" the Sky God asked curiously.
"I had planned on making a sword that could put in so much death aura and dark aura that the demon's regeneration couldn't keep up and he would die," the man said.
The Sky God's eyes narrowed. "What are the chances of that working?" he asked.
"Quite a lot, senior. So long as we can keep the life aura at bay, we should be able to kill him," the sword god said.

"I see," the Sky God nodded in thought. His disciple nudged him from the side and gestured towards Ning.
"Ah right, back on the topic of the attempted murder. What happened next?" the Sky God asked.
"Right, senior. When I asked him to make me a sword so it can help us in war, he said that he doesn't care about the humans and so he won't help us at all."
"Then, when I tried to confront him, he killed me," the sword god said. "If it were not for me finding the Ocean god and having him use his treasure to heal my soul, I wouldn't be standing here today, senior."
The man gods started talking amongst themselves. They cast their judgmental eyes toward him before he even got to say anything.
"What do you have to say?" the Sky God asked.
"Well, first of all, he attacked me first. If I hadn't stopped him, he would've destroyed the city I was in," Ning said. "As for not caring about humans, that's false. I just don't care about the war."
"Other than that, I can't really see anything wrong with his explanation." Ning shrugged and stayed inside the barrier that blocked him.
"If that is all you have, then I convene with the gods here and see if you deserve any punishment or not,' the Sky God said.
Immediately, the group started speaking only through their divine sense and nothing else. So, Ning remained in the unknown for a while.
After 3 minutes, the gods finally stopped talking as the Sky God now had the verdict for the trial.
After hearing from both the Sage and the god, we have come to the conclusion that the sage should be crippled for his actions.
"What?" Ning exclaimed in surprise. "Crippled? Are you serious?"
He couldn't understand how they could have possibly reached this conclusion. "You will cripple me for defending myself?" he asked.
"You tried to kill one of our best warriors during these times of war. Killing you wouldn't be enough of a punishment for the crime you did," the Sky God said.
"But, we can also not punish you. In fact, we could reward you and see if you have what it takes to be a god as well," the Sky God said.
"Oh? And what's the catch?" Ning asked.
"You will have to make Fire Grim the sword he wants and take part in the war," the Sky God said. "Do you guys agree with me?"
The other gods made noises of approval as they were all okay with him being let free as long as he helped them in the war.
"So, what will it be?" the Sky God asked him.
Ning looked at them with a sneer on his face. "Do you really think that I will accept such a bogus offer?"
