Chapter 1908 – [Hero & Demon King & Great Demon King]

I caught the falling agape. It looks like he fainted for a moment, but there doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with his body.

It seems like his outbursts have calmed down as he has started to catch his breath. If you’re stressed, it’s good to have a fight to relieve it, so fighting with Leona must have relieved some of your emotions.

Afterward, Leona, who came down to earth, was somewhat injured, but she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Agape alive and well.

“It looks like you’re fine. I’m glad.”

“Well done. I guess you finally decided?”

“Yes, Agape… I don’t want to kill her. Furthermore, I’m a dragon and Agape is the devil, but I don’t want to kill her just because she is.”

“Well done. It’s better to do it by choice rather than thinking it’s your destiny or duty.”

“Hehe.”

I patted Leona’s head as if it were great. Leona laughed heartily, as if she was in a good mood.

However, Agape, who had fainted, began to come to her senses with her moans.

“Ugh, me too…”

“Oh, have you come to your senses? Are you feeling better now?”

“Yeah, it’s okay… My head is a little noisy, but I can control it now.”

Agape is the devil. Because of her mental shock and sudden fable, she went berserk, but since she is the ruler of monsters, she can take the lead if she gathers her wits and concentrates. Does it make sense for the king of monsters to be swayed by monsters in the first place?

If it was designed that way, Amyashin would also have an interview with me. Since he received something, even if I don’t kill him, I’ll beat him, so he can’t use his excuses for a while.

Anyway, the situation is over. Apart from the rampage of large-scale monsters and paladins, it was a miraculous situation in which almost no one died, and the dead people were all papal bastards, so there is nothing to be concerned about.

However, the problem is that Agape came out as the devil…

“Demon, demon lord.”

“She’s playing a devil. That girl is the devil.”

“Why didn’t the hero kill the demon king…”

“Kill the devil!!!!!!”

I knocked out the humans at the temple and threw them away, but apart from that, the public and guests who were planning to attend the celebration were showing hostility, not knowing that they were afraid of the devil.

No, there must be one among you who saved someone who was about to die after being trampled by a crowd, is that so? These bastards don’t know grace and are so damn rude. Uh? Are you angry?

“Huh?”

“What is it, Leona? Are you trying to stop me?”

“Oh, no. Um, the Holy Light God is making a revelation right now… I’m wondering if it’s okay for him to come down?”

“What?”

No, the work is done, so why not show your face? If it’s going to come out, it should come out a long time ago. It feels like a police officer who comes only after the work is done in the action or creature genre.

Still, it’s better than not doing anything, but… Okay, let’s listen to the excuses that they took advantage of me and created this division.

“Okay, try it.”

“I understand. Ah…”

Soon, the Holy Light begins to descend on Leona’s body.

A halo like the sun begins to shine behind Leona’s back. With that amount of light, it would be so dazzling that it would be difficult to look straight at it, but strangely enough, you can just look at it and even feel a strange warmth from the light.

The people who had shown hostility to the devil, Agape, instinctively recognized that their god had descended. He or she is absolute in front of those who are religious enough to come to the festival.

“[My children.]”

“S-No way…!!!!”

“Oh, holy light!!!!”

“Huh, huh…”

“Wow!!!!!”

Reactions vary. There were people who were thrilled, people who cried, people who cheered, etc., But they all had the same fear of the Holy Gwangshin.

The confusion calmed down, and all attention was focused on Seong Gwang-shin. And the Holy Gwangshin gives orders to defeat such believers.

“[I have personally descended in the body of my family. Leave the affairs of this place to me.]”

“Yes, Holy Light God…”

“Would it be possible?”

Paladins and priests also expressed reverence by kneeling and bowing their heads in prayer. Is that what a fan would look like when they greeted their favorite idol right in front of them?

Thanks to this, there was no problem even with the demon lord Agape next to him. The Holy Light God is next to him, so is the Demon King, who is just a descendant of the Dark Night God, a big deal? The mindset is that if there is a problem, Seonggwangshin will take care of it.

The Holy Light God who descended on me, Agape, and Leona. In this way, the three settled down, so they could talk separately. Although part of the Vatican was destroyed, the internal facilities were relatively intact, so we went in there and talked in an appropriate room.

“[Nice to meet you, great being. My name is Holy Light God, one of the two gods who manage this world.]”

“I’m in a terrible mood right now. The Pope’s gang did something, and it’s only now after it’s all over that they’re showing their faces. If you have an excuse or a reason, let’s hear it.”

“[Yes, I have a lot to explain. But before that, I would like to apologize first. I deeply apologize for my carelessness, my mistakes, and for taking advantage of a great being.]”

“The basics are covered, starting with an apology.”

If I had started by simply making excuses, it would have been a point deduction. Usually, God’s people have high arrogance, so just saying ‘I’m sorry’ would be enough, ‘Mi, mi… You crazy!!! There are times when people get angry and say, ‘You did it first!!!’

When it comes to apologizing and taking responsibility for things, he is a good god in the top 10 percent. Down? That means a bitch like the White Goddess or Morrigan in her past life.

“[First, this world is a world created from nothing by half of us. Therefore, like a sand castle built on the palm of your hand, there is a risk of it collapsing if it moves even slightly, so there is a limit to the power we can use in this world.]”

“You’re not going to make excuses that you couldn’t do it because you don’t have the strength, are you?”

“[No. If there were only those restrictions, I would have sent an oracle to report the current Pope’s atrocities and excommunicate him, and I could have taken care of the matter myself. It’s just one more bad news.]”

“Bad news?”

“[It was a long time ago.]”

The God of Darkness created monsters, and the God of Seonggwang created humans. It was still the early days, the Bible was about Genesis, so there were a lot of things that needed to be changed.

Meanwhile, Amya God created a type of monster. It wasn’t a monster that could destroy a mountain with just one monster, but it had one characteristic.

The point is that they hunted humans for interest and fun, not simply for survival or anything like that.

Since it was created by mutual agreement, the Holy Light God did not say anything about the death of humans, his creations, from monsters. Of course, the opposite case would also be true, but at least the monster crossed the line, so Seonggwangshin raised an objection to Amyashin.

“[Perhaps he thought it was not his duty to do so, so he caused the monsters to become extinct. However, since dead humans do not return, we made our own rules about it.]”

“Rules?”

“[Yes, there may be hostility in this war, but do not harbor malice. If you break the rules or cross the line, you will pay the appropriate price. And since the current Pope and other leaders have captured monsters and experimented on them alive, I have to pay the price.]”

“It’s true that it’s definitely crossed the line… But it was ultimately done by humans, right? Wasn’t that what you intended?”

“[I didn’t intend the act itself, but just as Amyasin prefers ‘domination,’ I prefer ‘freedom.’ I was the one who gave free will to humans, so I couldn’t avoid responsibility for it.]”

“Hoo.”

Nuri, the Great Demon King in charge of freedom, often says things like that. Freedom must be accompanied by responsibility.

Freedom without responsibility is nothing more than self-indulgence. Even if it wasn’t his intention, it was Seonggwang-shin who gave him freedom, so his attitude of taking responsibility for himself was quite acceptable.

But this is the first time I found out. The God of Darkness prefers domination, and the God of Holy Light prefers freedom. They are conflicting concepts… Ah, since they are gods symbolizing light and darkness, do they also have conflicting tastes in that direction?

If you think about it deeply, it makes sense. Agape, a descendant of the God of Darkness, had absolute command over monsters, to the extent that if she commanded them to die, they would die. Perhaps it is a power that reflects the taste of the dark god who prefers control.

On the other hand, even though he did not seem to be a Holy Light God, he gave warriors and through oracles, he allowed humans to directly educate and raise warriors. Even if he kills the Hero because he doesn’t need it, that’s humans’ choice. It seems like Seong Gwang-shin’s taste is reflected.

… I actually got upset because of that. The child was gaslighted by the Holy Light Temple guys.

“[In return, most of my power to interfere on earth was limited. At best, I could guide it through revelation, but I was unable to directly inform it through an oracle.]”

“So, you solved this incident by leading me? You solved the cause and the restrictions were lifted, so you came down like this?”

“[Yes.]”

He’s a good god in his own way, but he’s the type that suffered because of humans. No matter how hard I try to do my job as president, I don’t feel like I’m doing my best when I think about the fact that I’m getting in the way because of these damn bastards.

When the conditions for intervention were reached, it was good to come down directly and take care of the matter instead of dealing with it through an oracle or something. Listening to what he said, I felt like I didn’t have to worry.

But apart from that, you have to pay for what you earned. Amyasin also gave it in kind.

“[I have prepared something for that as well. However, unlike Amyasin, I think something other than in-kind would be better… So I have prepared some good news.]”

“Oh, what is it?”

“[First, I am a hero of this generation. I plan to take on my duty as a hero from Leona, who has descended on me. Of course, I will retain the strength and authority given to me, but as a hero, I will take on the responsibility of defeating the Demon King. In the future, I will face the fate of having to kill my friend. There will be no need to worry.]”

“That’s good. So what’s next?”

“[Similarly, Agape, a descendant of the God of Darkness, will also fulfill her duties as the Demon Lord. Although she overcame her instincts and became a friend, it is still better not to have any feelings of rejection or hostility.]”

“They used to bicker, but they’re getting along better… Wait a minute, Agape is a member of the Amya God family, so how can you do that?”

“[There is a separate conversation with Amyasin. He also relatively readily agreed because he cares about his family.]”

“Hmm.”

To be honest, I was also quite worried about the fate of Agape, the demon lord, and Leona, the hero. If the system set up by the gods in charge of this world is like that, even if you kill the gods, the fate itself cannot be changed, so I wondered what to do with the fate of killing or killing each other, but thanks to this, it worked out.

Saved me an hour. I am relieved because it is good news.

“But what do you hope for by fighting each other like that? It seems a bit leisurely and not desperate to be seen as a simple war for hegemony.”

If it were a real life-or-death fight, it would have been enough to unilaterally trample on Seonggwangshin, who was bound by restrictions or something. The opposite could also have happened.

What do the two gods hope for while fighting each other like that?

“[Me and Amyasin have very different personalities, but there is one thing we agree on.]”

“Is that the purpose?”

“[Yes… Do you know that? About a thousand years ago, humans did not have standardized abilities such as magic or holy laws.]”

“Hmm?”

“[On the other hand, there were no monsters other than the standard size, such as super-sized monsters. The world we have now is one that fought, developed, and evolved with each other.]”

“I guess what you ultimately want is evolution.”

The Holy Light God is for humans, and the Dark God is for monsters.

Some people die through competition, but in the end, it is to achieve further evolution as a good competitor. It’s not like one side unilaterally dies, it’s about everyone equally, and it’s not about other people but the God who created this world, so there’s no reason to tackle that.

Evolution is a reason I can understand. Even the Absolute Creator’s second ability is ‘evolution’, so it’s really important.

Even if there are only humans, those who cannot adapt are eliminated, but from God’s perspective, it is not a big deal if some die to grow and evolve. As I said before, when you try to do well with affection, your personality, or rather your divinity, is at the top level.

[Seong Gwang-shin]

-Isn’t he is an incompetent and mediocre god?

-No, this guy. A god like this can only be properly evaluated by looking at other gods!!!

[Human Favoritism, Anti-Racism, White Goddess]

[Seong Gwang-shin, who works hard and takes responsibility even if he falls short]

[Hero kidnapping Tosagufang Morian]

-Seeing you again, you look like a fairy!!!!!!

However, since there are two people, the Holy Light God and the Dark Night God, the balance is extreme. I think it would be better if there was one more god, so the three of us split up and work together.

Why is it that there are people who admire humans even though they are monsters, or who manipulate monsters or want to be friends with them even though they are humans? There is no need to go far, and Leona also becomes close friends with the demon lord Agape.

“[That’s an opinion worth considering. We also felt that there were shortcomings and limitations in the two-person approach.]”

“In the world I saw before, there were three gods: white, gray, and black. Even though the year was shit, it worked in a balanced way. It was like a three-quarter world.”

“[I think it wouldn’t be a bad idea to consult with the God of Darkness in the future and give birth to a new god. If he is born, I would like to ask his opinion on what the name of that god should be.]”

“To me?”

“[If the Great One gives you a name, that alone will give you a firm position as a god.]”

Hmm… It’s hard to give it a name because I’m worried that if I do, the Choi family’s terrible naming sense will come out.

The God of Dark Night is darkness and the God of Holy Light is light, so what is in between? Chaos? God of chaos? No, it’s a bit weird because it seems like it would be a strange scene. When things go wrong, I feel like I’ll be with Spotted Dog, saying things like ‘I’m confused, I’m confused!!!’.

Light and darkness, freedom and domination, humans and monsters, day and night… Day and night? And in between? Twilight?

No, twilight is that dark time when the sun sets. Besides, I kind of hate Gilhyun because it reminds me of Team Twilight.

We decided to give it a name based on the time from dawn to morning as opposed to dusk.

“Dawn (黎明). Dawn God. How about it? It’s a name I came up with on the spot, but it’s pretty good, right?”

“[I think it’s a good name. I don’t know when it will be, but please ask for the child who will be born later.]”

“What are you asking for?!”

But why am I suddenly being given the name of a god who will be born in the future, even though it is not my name?

I somehow get goosebumps thinking that a god will come and call me ‘Uncle!!!’ Later!!!!
