Chapter 772: The Last (5)
‘Who knew it would be like this?’
Seraphim trembled like a puppy in the rain.
I had faced numerous villains so far, but I had never seen such a desperate expression.
There were Jin Qing, who made a definite and honorable choice, Ito Souta, who showed wrath and madness until the end, and some other guys I couldn’t remember well.
I wondered if the atmosphere was too different from before he gave in, but I honestly thought it was worth it.
There might be many reasons, but wasn’t it the biggest thing that I was his creator now?
Of course, I didn’t create his psychological side, but the current Seraphim was aware of the fact that I made him. Crucially, it was because he knew I could give him what he wanted.
Living like a human.
And…
A creator’s parental love.
I could roughly understand why they were obsessed with such things. Before discussing the background of their birth, Yulha and I also went through a similar period.
What was a little surprising was that Seraphim, who had formally denied his embarrassing personality, showed a very rapid change of posture.
Seraphim perfectly succumbed just by showing him a glimpse of the vision of life he really wanted. From the moment I adopted him, there would be no room for rebellion, but it was meaningful that he succumbed physically and mentally.
As I quietly held out the glass, and he got up and filled it. In the midst of it, a blue light circled Seraphim.
‘Gosh. Why is it doing that again?’
“What are you doing there, Cherubim?”
“…”
“You have some guts. Do you want to stand by Seraphim even after being backstabbed that much by him? You don’t want to be left too, do you?”
“…”
“Looking at the brotherhood of the century that I have never seen anywhere else makes me want to cry… It’s not my business how you stand by and care for Seraphim, but your other siblings will also suffer if you come out uncooperatively. You’re going to be very, very unhappy.”
“…”
“I’ll hold Thronus and Dominions to account. Your wrong choices will affect the happiness and future of the other two. Remember it well and act accordingly.”
“…”
“There is no option to forgive, Cherubim. I am not such a generous person. Do you know what that bastard did? There is no option to compromise.”
“…”
The blue light continued to flash. It felt like it was talking to Seraphim.
Seraphim hastily bowed his head, prostrated himself, and spoke up.
“It was a stupid act, F-F-Father.”
Maybe it had even advised him to call me father.
“Please… If you give me a chance again, I will give my all and thank Father for giving life by serving and dedicating a lifetime to this continent… sniff… With my sins in my heart.”
“I am not your father, Seraphim, and I never allowed you to speak…”
“…”
“What are you doing, Cherubim?”
“…”
“Thronus and Dominions will be sad. Someone is depriving you of a new opportunity. Wouldn’t it be a huge loss for me too?”
After pushing out the silver light again, I continued.
Of course, I knew Cherubim wouldn’t be able to abandon them. There was no way he could do that to Thronus and Dominions, who kept lingering around me.
In the end, it didn’t take long for the guy who wandered around Seraphim to join this side.
Seraphim kept shedding thick tears, but I couldn’t stand it because I wanted to see him more like that. As I glanced next to me, I noticed Dialugia quietly looking at me.
I felt like she had a lot to say but kept silent. Still, as if she couldn’t stand it, she slowly spoke up. “Honestly, I know I shouldn’t say this, but… It doesn’t look good to do this for your mood without any other purpose.”
“…”
“I am very anxious and embarrassed now, but you seem to be pushing more than necessary. It feels like you’re harassing them maliciously.”
“But I am doing exactly that. I am venting out my anger…”
“…”
Honestly, I had nothing to say, considering it felt like she hit the nail on the head. Rather than venting out my madness because of my anger against Seraphim, it would be appropriate to say that I was angry about the current situation, one which I could do nothing about.
I didn’t think Dialugia would notice my condition, but as we were together for a while, it seemed that she felt something, and it seemed that I was showing off in secret.
When I looked at Seraphim again, I could see that he still couldn’t look me in the eye.
The way he was pretending to be a victim after being the villain that turned Kim Hyunsung’s body into a beehive filled with holes was a spectacle.
I wanted to kick him once, but it wasn’t productive, as Dialugia said.
I had to love my future creatures for the sake of peace of mind.
It was never an action for Seraphim to see, nor was it an action to vent out my anger, but to love my children who would manage the continent together in the future.
When I beckoned to the silver light that I had been pushing away for a while, I could see that it came flying.
“Come here, Thronus. Our Thronus. I guess I’ve been too indifferent. Shouldn’t the lovely Cherubim come too?”
“Shameful, dirty human…”
‘Don’t talk openly like that.’
“What are you doing there, Dominions? Our Dominions and Cherubim are so pretty, sparkling magnificently like stars. Why are you so pretty? Right. Come here.”
“Really shameful human…”
“You can come a little closer, Thronus. Yes, here.”
“Do you have any idea how shameful you look now?”
“That’s right, our Cherubim. I was too harsh earlier. Will you come here too? You can play together. Don’t pay attention to other people… You don’t need to pay attention to anything, okay?”
I then began to speak with the sweetest voice possible.
“Really…”
Seraphim died of envy just by looking at the happy scene.
The act of rubbing and stroking light’s cheek in itself felt a little shameful, but what about it?
I could be sure that this scene would make Seraphim feel like watching a happy family playing in the park.
He also wanted to come over and enjoy a happy time together with us, but he would be desperate to be unable to do so. The blue light still seemed to be glancing at Seraphim, but it still stood out to look happy.
‘Yes, we were on bad terms. Now we have to start anew. Honestly, it will be good for you too, right? It doesn’t feel that long since you called me parasite, and now you’re shining happily like that. You’re shining at the parasite’s hand gestures.’
The slow silver light was flying around and sticking like it was in its element. The brown light didn’t react much, but it felt like it was going with the flow.
I couldn’t figure out what the lights were talking about, but I hoped they’d be happy even for the one person watching that scene.
As I looked at him with a side-by-side glance, I could see him trembling visibly.
The way he kept shedding tears as he couldn’t do anything made it even sadder.
I knew it wasn’t very helpful, as Dialugia said, but there was something similar to pleasure passing behind my back. I felt so refreshed, so what more would I need to say?
I was still bothered about Dialugia’s gaze, almost as if she was looking at a trash human…
‘It’s not a shameful act.’
It was by no means shameful behavior. I was just having a good time.
“Didn’t you say you’re the hero who saved the continent? Act like an adult. The top priority is to stop doing that and think about dealing with this situation now, isn’t that right?”
“Yes. Well…”
“So… What’s your next plan?”
“…”
“Let’s say you become a god. So it’s also understandable that you’ll try to use the creatures that the foreign light had already created as managers. Do you have any hints about going back? If it’s true that you erased your own memories and that you have arranged for the current situation… Wouldn’t you have a clear idea of ??how to go back?”
“Are you trusting me?”
“All circumstances tell me to. I don’t believe it either, but… it doesn’t seem like a hypothesis that doesn’t make sense.”
“Honestly, I don’t remember anything.”
“…”
“I wish I had a hint about anything. I don’t remember anything right now. I’ve tried this and that because I decided that thinking of a certain action or thought might be the trigger, but nothing really comes to mind.”
“You mean they have to find a way from down there?”
As I nodded and looked down at Dialugia’s words, I saw the people gathered in the Blue Guild.
-It was definitely… definitely Kiyoung who spoke to me. He will still be watching us now.
-T-That’s right. I-I also heard his voice without a d-doubt.
The guild members were having a serious conversation.
I tried several times to send a message to Hayan, but I didn’t succeed… It seemed that it had some errors since some had arrived.
-Then you mean that we can save the Vice Guild Master?
-C-Can we save hyung-nim? Is that true?
Oh, Park Deokgu, why did that bastard become emaciated?
-There is nothing that I can clearly say… What is certain is that Kiyoung must be somewhere looking for help. First, it would be nice to take a closer look at what we can do. Kiyoung would have said so.
Yes. If it were me, I would have said that.
“Are you saying that other humans have to find a way to save us?”
“Honestly, I don’t know that either. There seems to be some way, but… Oh! Did I mention that Lee Kiyoung made a bet with Lucifer before losing his memory?”
“Yes.”
“Maybe it’s because of that.”
“What?”
“I think I should also think about the possibility that I have intentionally made it impossible to retrieve my memories. Past me might have thought it’s more advantageous to not have to look for it or remember it. I don’t know what the bet was about now, but…”
“What does that…”
“I wouldn’t have thought of anything else if I just had to be revived, but if Control Freak Lee Kiyoung really wanted to manage the continent, wouldn’t it be necessary to cover Lucifer’s eyes? Managing the continent would mean being independent… He might have wanted to be completely out of the monitors of Lucifer, other demons, and other gods.”
“That means… Are you saying that Benignore and other continental gods should also be excluded?”
“Rather than exclusion… Hmm… Honestly, I am nervous too. All I can think of are hypotheses. There is nothing I can be certain of, and I’m not sure what’s going on, but I think it’s better to do what I can for now. Don’t draw too big a picture and start with what’s right in front of us…”
“…”
Like Kim Hyunsung said.
“First, it would be nice to take a closer look at what we can do. No, let’s act right away.”
As the divinity was removed, the space slowly opened. In it, I saw a familiar face after a long time.
“Huh? Huh?”
It was a face that had become emaciated while looking at me with a finger pointing as if it was hard to believe. I didn’t know if those guys were sleeping, but they seemed to have not slept properly, and I could see a pile of documents in her hands.
It must’ve been clear that she was working prior to our meeting.
After one big incident, it wasn’t only the people below who were busy.
“Junior Lee Kiyoung?”
I didn’t know how much time I had left. First, I knew I had to speak straightforwardly.
“Goddess Benignore, whom I respect and love.”
“Where is this… Where are we?”
“How much do you get where you are working now?” I asked with a bright smile.
