The gods treat mortals as puppets and the joys and sorrows of all living things as their entertainment. This is Divine Mockery.
Su Wang was born without a martial aptitude and was destined to be a discarded child offered as a sacrifice. In his darkest hour, he awakened Delusional Combat: turning illusion into reality, deceiving heaven and gods alike. But the stronger and madder he became, the more he resembled a god.
Dressed in theatrical robes and singing in an opera voice, he used delusions to break the chains of the rules and led the oppressed masses in overturning the divine court's chessboard. Ling Qinghan sacrificed herself for the cause, Manhu guarded the village, and A Zhu burned her soul. No one would be a puppet for the gods again.
Then the truth exploded into the open: even this rebellion was a script written by the gods.
Su Wang laughed. Using his divine soul as fuel, he performed the ultimate delusion: shattering the divine court, burning down the stage, and dragging the gods with him into the flames.
The gods mock me as an ant. I mock the gods as actors, with my life.
From that day on, there were no gods in the human world, and mortals were free.
