All of the gods are prostrating themselves. Sophia is trying to come up with an excuse.

[Sophia] - Your Majesty! Please forgive us for not waking you up earlier, we…

[God Emperor] - Enough! I will deal with this latter.

Now that I look better it doesn’t seem as if his body is moving at all.

It isn’t.

The hell is happening here?

[Answer]: Interference. Denied. The God Emperor has managed to wake his consciousness and a part of his mind, but not the rest of himself. This is the manifestation in front of you.

Does he have limited powers like this? Is he unable to take away my own powers?

[Answer]: Interference. Denied. The god emperor does have limited powers in this state. He is fully capable of punishing gods of King class.

Shit.

[God Emperor] - This damn needle pain in my mind again. Is this your doing?

Tsc.

I feel like a kid being reprehended by an adult.

Fuck it.

I won’t bow to this motherfucker.

Steel myself. Steel motherfucker, steel!

“Yeah. I’m here under a contract from the Fantasy Pantheon’s demons who are directly under the writers.”

[God Emperor] - The writer? The hell…

He’s looking upwards.

Then his faced turned into that of someone who just drunk something extremely bitter.

[God Emperor] - Y’are a trouble fer me. Get out of my universe. Now.

Ugh.

What pressure.

I’m sweating all over.

What are you, a western xerif or something?

[Answer]: Interference. Impossible to uncover the God Emperor’s previous incarnation.

“As if I was going to get out like this. Besides, I have a contract to uphold. I can’t get out, mr. Hypocrite Asshole.”

Thunder and lightning everywhere.

Yep.

Not the smartest move on my part.

[Emperor God] - What did you call me, son?!

“I’m not your son, old man. And you’re breaking so many pantheon rules I guess you won’t survive your next inspection. Not if I’m still here. And I will be here. So why don’t you calm that lazy ass of yours and talk to me like equals?”

[Emperor God] - EQUALS?! DO WE LOOK LIKE EQUALS, PUNY GOD?!

AAARRGH.

THIS SHIT HURTS!

MY EARS!

But hold it.

If I give up now that’s it.

The motherfucker will make me quit.

I can’t let him have this.

“You can fuck me; I can fuck you even worse. Isn’t this enough to make us equals, pall?! I won’t lose a level so soon, and even if I do, I will reach level 2 in the blink of an eye. But you have done a lot worse than just accumulating bad karma!”

That’s partially true.

I do have enough karma to make me lose a level. But I have good karma enough to compensate for that.

My extremely-efficient good-karma system of Hell, to where I send the souls of most of those who enter my dominions, is producing a LOT of rehabilitated souls.

Psychos turned civil, composed, stable people.

That kind of shit gives TONS of good karma.

So I have a large margin to my good-bad karma count.

[God Emperor] - You… you… rebellious…

“Me, me, YES, ME! I’m here now motherfucker! And don’t you think you can rule the place like you used to! Your little sister was the first, but I have my eyes on you!”

…

I shouldn’t have said that.

His face is stiff now.

Shit.

So close of winning the argument.

I had to give in to my impulses, didn’t I?!

[God Emperor] - Messiah, I, as God Emperor, now take away all of your powers and might. May you ravel amongst the mortals as a commoner and die like one of them!

[Notice]: You are being punished by the god emperor. All karma usage is disabled. Omnipotence is disabled. Omniscience is partially disabled. Omnipresence is partially disabled.

[Notice]: You are suffering interference from the God Emperor. One point of bad karma used. Do you want to overwrite the interference?

YES!

[Notice]: Karma usage is disabled.

[Notice]: Interference in progress.

Divinity is being removed.

Denied.

Divinity is being removed.

Denied.

Divinity is being removed.

Denied.

Divinity is being removed.

Denied.

That motherfucker is doing all he can to take away my divinity eh.

But he can’t.

Oh no, he can’t.

Doesn’t matter how much he’s sweating on that big forehead of his.

He doesn’t have the…

Wait…

Why is he grinning in satisfaction?

[Notice]: Your divinity status has been removed. You have fallen from divinity. All other divine powers have been sealed away.

WHAT THE FUCK!??

[God Emperor] - He. Don’t you think you… can… *pant*… come to MY house… and… *pant*… dictate the… *pant*… rules kid…. Don’t you… *pant*… get it over your… *pant*… head.

“YOU IDIOT!”

And he’s grinning.

[God Emperor] - Idiot, eh? Let’s see how you like it when I send you to be reborn as a goat!

“You old fossil, do you really believe you can hack into the system and just get away with it?!”

[God Emperor] - He. Cry me a riv..

[s1sT#n(t! n)%(CE)] - System malfunction detected. System will reboot. Data is being gathered. Data corruption imminent. Some parts of the system will be replaced with the [Standard] counterpart. Divine Technician has been warned and a Divine Log has been generated. System Will Reboot in 3…2…

[God Emperor] - Shit.

“I told you.”

And all became white.
