Simulated Star Iron: Miracles are yours, death is mine

The gods descended to earth, bringing endless bloodshed and death!

The sky collapsed, the seas burned, and the earth crumbled.

The people of Izumo's past reverence and worship of Takamagahara are gone forever, replaced by anger and madness!

No one wants to be a submissive lamb.

The World Government mobilized its military and civilian experts, suffering countless casualties, before finally managing to slay this god.

【Dumu-gari-shin is the name of this ferocious beast.】

[It has a terrifying appearance with eight heads and eight tails; its serpentine body can destroy large areas of buildings with a mere leap.]

[With a single open mouth, a single drop of foul-smelling saliva could drown hundreds.]

[Izumo Star, having overpowered all opponents, ultimately achieved a hard-won victory and began researching the God of the Mitsugari.]

Many have realized that the path to god-slaying is inevitable.

[The incident involving the god of the Mōkari is by no means an isolated case. A single war has caused countless deaths and injuries on Izumo Star. What will happen next?]

[With eight million gods in Takamagahara, how many more attacks like this can Izumo withstand?]

The weapons of the mortal world are no longer sufficient to satisfy Izumo's need to slay gods.

The only way is to fight fire with fire.

The World Government established a Science Council and an Executive Force; the former specializes in researching the gods of Takamagahara, while the latter conducts operations to kill gods.

Soon, the results of the research on the gods came out: the World Government used the beast body of the god Tōmugari to forge a divine sword called [Shin].

This is a sword capable of slaying gods.

Only the chosen ones can wield this sword and face the gods.

As for who is capable of wielding the Imperial Decree Blade, the World Government is frantically searching for its master all over the globe.

"Brother Yuan, the state of emergency is over. Do you want to come out and play?" Ling asked on the phone.

For the past few months, Izumo has been on high alert, and everyone has been under strict control.

They were in the Eastern Hemisphere, which was alright, because the god Tomokari descended upon the Western Hemisphere of Izumo.

I've heard that some places in the Western Hemisphere are experiencing social disorder.

Fortunately, the World Government intervened in time, preventing the unrest from spreading further.

The demon god Dumuyi ravaged the land for more than two months, causing countless destructions.

"That god has been killed, and now we can finally live a normal life."

After staying at home for so long, the naturally lively Ling is starting to feel like she's growing hair all over her body.

Lin Yuan walked to the window, looked at the growing crowds on the street, and hesitated for a moment:

"Okay, it's been three months since we last met, so it's good to get together."

Social order has been severely disrupted by this divine descent, and many people are spreading conspiracy theories such as apocalypticism and divine punishment.

The World Government promptly clarified the rumors, and although many people were arrested, the destruction brought about by the descent of the gods could not be ignored.

If the root cause is not eliminated, then fear and rumors will continue to exist.

Seeing these things when you're home alone can easily cause some anxiety.

Seeing the crowds before me now feels like a lifetime ago.

Humans are ultimately social animals; only by returning to people and to the mundane world can we feel safe.

"Okay, you call Mei-neechan, and I'll call my sister." Ringo on the other end of the phone was very happy. "Let's go play together."

"Okay, it's good to come out and relax." After Ling's actions, Lin Yuan also felt much happier.

The combined cheerfulness of the four of them probably doesn't even amount to more than half of Rin's.

He picked up his phone and sent a message to Mei.

[Yuki: Mei, let's get together later.]

A moment later, Mei also sent a message.

[Raiden Mei: Okay, see you at the usual place.]

An hour later, the four met at their usual restaurant.

Raiden Mei asked with concern, "It's been a long time. I hope nothing has happened."

"Nothing much, it's just that Ling is getting restless at home. She said she's so bored that she's going to evolve photosynthesis so she can stay on the balcony and sunbathe and then not have to eat."

Sakura covered her mouth and laughed.

"Um, Brother Yuan, what's the deal with that God of the Mulchi?" Ling asked in a low voice. "Do your aunt and uncle know anything about it?"

When Lin Yuan heard Ling ask this question and mention his parents who worked at the research institute, he was momentarily dazed.

After all, his parents hadn't made any contact with him in the past three months, except for occasionally sending him a message.

They became very busy with work a few years ago.

He rarely goes home.

Fortunately, I never lacked living expenses.

As for the deity Dumu-gai-shin, there is not much information available from the official sources at present, only that it is under research.

“I don’t know either.” Lin Yuan shook his head honestly. “They’re probably doing something that’s highly confidential, but as for what it is…”

“Indeed, this information has been blocked,” Raiden Mei said.

Although her family's company is one of the top ten conglomerates on Izumo Star and holds a very high position, she only knows some very vague things.

Ling scratched her head: "But gods are still quite far away from us, so I'd rather think about my upcoming high school courses... I don't want to take the college entrance exam..."

Raiden Mei was also troubled: "Yeah, Yuu and I are both in our first year of high school, while you two are in your third year of junior high. The pressure of studying has definitely increased."

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Yuan's phone rang.

"It's my father on the phone..." Lin Yuan was slightly taken aback when he saw the caller ID on the screen, but he still answered the call.

"Yuan, where are you?" The person on the other end of the phone sounded utterly exhausted. "We're looking for you."

“I’m with Sakura, Rin, and Mei.” Lin Yuan paused. “I’ll send you my location now.”

"Okay, we can pick them up together. Don't move, we'll be there soon."

The call was immediately disconnected.

Raiden Mei asked, "What did your uncle say on the phone?"

"They said they'd pick us up..."

Less than five minutes later, a commotion broke out at the restaurant entrance, followed by a large group of soldiers who drove away the other customers.

Surrounded by these people at the center were two researchers wearing white coats.

"Father...Mother..."

Then Yuan's father walked over and said to the four of them:

"Yuan, Ying, and Mei, the three of you have been selected by the World Government's Science Council and Executive Force to participate in the God-Slaying Project."

This is the plan information; we'll be leaving shortly.

The four children were initially stunned, but then they came to their senses.

"Killing God?"

“Yes, the World Government began studying the gods of Takamagahara a long time ago.” Yuan’s father paused. “As you can see, your mother and I are researchers in this field.”

Yuanmu sighed softly, "But none of us expected that the descent of the gods would bring such a terrible disaster."

"Uncle and Aunt, what about my brother and sister..." Ling seemed to sense something and asked nervously.

Yuan's father said, "They'll be leaving for a while... Ling, let me send someone to take you home. Your parents already know about this."

Ling wanted to say something, but Ying spoke up: "Little sister, you should go home first. Your older brothers and sisters are going out for a bit."

Ling looked on with reluctance as she was escorted away from the restaurant by several soldiers.

Then, Yuan's father looked at Lin Yuan solemnly:

“We used the body of the god Dumu to create a divine sword capable of killing gods.”

After screening and testing.

Theoretically, all three of you can wield the imperial edict sword.

But, Yuan, you are the most suitable one.

You will become the wielder of the first imperial edict sword.
