บท 622: 622. Wish Sale II

Jesus was looking around to find some good wishes. He and Alexander were having a competition but that didn't mean they could grant every wish because that might lead to fulfilling some twisted wishes.

~Ah, finally.~ He found a wish.

In a random world, a boy named Tanjiro Kamado lived. Tanjiro was born on a mountain as the eldest son of Kie and Tanjuro Kamado, a family of charcoal sellers. He had 5 younger siblings and hence he tried to be strong and endure any hardships for them. Especially after his father died.

Once, when Tanjiro went out to sell Charcoal he had never thought his whole world was going be turned upside down.

In his home, Nezuko, his younger sister and the 2nd eldest of the siblings were looking after the family. They were not rich but not very poor either.

But, their peaceful life in the mountains was seen by someone's evil eye. Out of nowhere, demons surrounded their humble home and attacked. There were no fighters in the family. It was just some kids and their mother.

The demons jumped to kill them. In desperation, the little kids ducked and started praying to god. Nezuko and her mother tried to shield the kids. They were helpless in this situation.

*GROWL*

Just when the demons were about to reach them, a sudden beam of light fell from the sky and burned the demon away. Then, another fell. These were like pillars of justice from heaven. All demons who came to hurt them got burned to ashes.

"YOU FILTHY DEMONS. How dare you even think of destroying such a cute family. I will purify your whole planet now." Jesus' voice came from the sky.

As his voice came, similar pillars of light fell all around the planet. Some demons who were evil were destroyed and some who were forcefully made demons were cured. All in all, Jesus purified the whole planet and made demons go extinct in a minute. These were all low-level demons anyway.

Then, he looked at Nezuko and her elder brother, who had just arrived.

"You two don't worry. All is well. Ah, you two seem to have some kind of hidden powers. Here, I will unlock them." *Snap*

Nezuko and Tanjiro had no idea where this voice was coming from but because it was from the sky, they guessed it was from heaven maybe.

As soon as they heard the snap, something snapped inside their body too. Both brother and sister felt invincible at that moment.

"Hahaha... I didn't know you could be this strong. Anyway, you two are the strongest beings in the world now. Use these powers wisely and don't turn into Hitler, kiddies. See ya."

After that, the voice never came again. Tanjiro turned to his sister and family. He hugged them all tightly. They all became a firm believer in god since then.

Nezuko and Tanjiro later opened a world peace association. They, being the strongest in the world, made sure no demonic being rose and no corrupt leader misused their power, all from the shadows of course.

[World Name - Demon Slayer]

...

Alexander and Jesus continued their work while checking each other's condition. They were sweating already.

Alexander was currently bringing a dead girl nicknamed Menma back to life as this was her and her friend's wish. As soon as he was done he jumped to the next wish.

Alexander found himself looking at a prison cell. It looked like a very old prison. Maybe somewhere near the 1930s. Alexander immediately recognised one of the guards. It was Tom Hanks.

Now, Alexander knew what he was looking at and who the person was that prayed to him. It was Tom Hanks himself. Praying for the soul of a death row inmate. His name in this world was Paul Edgecomb.

The inmate was John Coffey, a seven-foot-tall black man convicted of r*ping and killing two young white girls. Tom Hanks had noticed that since John's arrival to his cell, he immediately demonstrated "gentle giant" character traits like keeping to himself, fearing the darkness, and being moved to tears on occasion.

Soon enough, John revealed extraordinary healing powers by healing Paul's urinary tract infection and resurrecting a mouse. Later he also healed the wife of the warden, who suffered from a terminal brain tumour.

Later it turned out he was also innocent of the crimes he was convicted of. The real perpetrator was another death row member called Bill "Wild Bill" Wharton, whom John killed as a punishment. Still, he was being executed for crimes he did not commit. But John also wanted it. He was tired of living in this world with his heightened senses and seeing all the ugliness in it.

So, when Paul prayed for John, Alexander replied. A light fell upon the prison call and Paul from the sky which was impossible because there was a concrete ceiling.

"Paul, your prayers have been heard. But, I will not save him. He is too kind to be living among the most dangerous species on your planet, humans. But, I will grant him a painless death after which he will come to heaven." Alexander said.

Paul was in shock and John's face looked as if he was in an epiphany. He seemed too happy to hear Alexander.

"Thank you, god."John thanked like an innocent child. But Alexander did not speak again.

Paul was in a bigger shock. He had just accepted the miracles of John but now he just had an encounter with the god. He was not a very religious man but now he was going to be one.

John was later taken to the electric chair to be executed. Lots of people had come to see him die. Many held resentment against him as they believed he committed those crimes. This was a very backward era so no one would have believed him anyway as the colour of his skin was enough evidence to get him convicted.

As soon as the switch was turned on to kill him. Again a light fell from the sky on John. In front of people's eyes, John's body was disintegrated into nothing and his soul was taken to the heavens.

This was an otherworldly encounter for all of the people there. Paul could only be happy for the happy ending for his giant friend. But, he was yet to find out that he could now live for so many years because of John's healing.

...

Alexander wanted to win, so he also took a shortcut. He decided to look at alternate or parallel timelines of worlds he's been to.

The first one was One Piece and Ace was about to be killed in Marineford. But a pillar of purity fell on Akainu and stopped him. Alexander didn't continuously save them because, in the end, he was still a pirate. So, he gave him a chance to run. If he dies still, then he was never worth saving.

Then Alexander looked at the Grave Of Fireflies world. Setsuko and her brother were praying to kamisama for a good life. Alexander felt heartache seeing them too. So, he went out of the way and purified the whole multiverse of Grave of Fireflies world. Meaning that in all timelines of this world, Setsuko will not die. The two kids will live happily.

After this, Alexander stopped seeing wishes and looked at Jesus. Jesus's face was also sweating but he was still going on. So Alexander also continued

As soon as he closed his eyes, Jesus opened, "Whoah, he's still going on. I can't lose to this. I will be a laughing stock otherwise."
