Eva's words made all the living beings of the Storm Empire's capital tremble. Those who were trying to escape using spatial devices or techniques had to accept the reality that nothing was working at the moment, throwing them into further despair.
What kind of punishment would the Supreme Goddess dole out? The fact that she had cast out her avatar to appear here… could it be she had come to wipe the empire off the face of the continent, as well as its people?
Many people wanted to panic, yet they held onto a thin string of hope. Amaterasu was known as a benevolent and 'good' deity, so a genocide didn't really sound like something she would do.
Eva continued her speech, maximizing the little time she had for this transformation to achieve the effect she wanted. "I am a benevolent Deity. I shall give you people of the Storm Empire the right to choose your own punishment. You shall decide between these two options."
