The sin of not being able to continue (4)
Soft light gathered above the head of Ichael, who had lost his mind, forming a sphere.
As the light body regained its original form, her eyelids mechanically lifted.
‘here is?’
The first thing that came into view was Satiel’s crying face.
“Are you okay, Archangel?”
Ikael raised his upper body upright as if defying gravity and looked around.
It was Jebul’s room.
“What happened?”
“that is??????
Satiel told him what happened after Ikael lost consciousness.
“With that conclusion… the war was put on hold. Kariel isolated the Gaians with the Metagate. It seemed to be okay for now… but
the atmosphere in heaven was still tense.
“okay.”
“What happened, Archangel? “What happened at the meeting?”
Ikael was lost in thought instead of answering.
‘No one knows yet.’
Ichael opened the door of the sanctuary at will, disobeyed orders, and blocked the angels.
It means there is no response from Anker Ra. O…
‘Are you planning on covering it up?’
The Gaian cry I heard before I lost consciousness came to me from beyond my memory.
-What kind of god would go back on what he said
!
“ha.”
Ichael touched his forehead, feeling dizzy.
“I need to meet Anke Ra.”
Satyel shouted as he jumped out of his seat and headed for the door.
“All angels have been ordered to stand by! “No one can access the sanctuary!”
“Okay.”
Ikael opened the door.
“You will be waiting for me.”
Ichael flew into the sky of Zebul and headed straight for the spire of Arabot.
When she arrived at the sanctuary, she stopped when she saw the door she had opened of her own volition.
Where on earth did you get such courage?
‘No, it’s my choice.’
You can choose anything, but you are also responsible for it.
“This is Anke Ra, Ikael.”
When there was no response, she held out her hand toward the door.
Just before my fingertips touched it, the door made a squeak and slowly moved inward.
Ikael took a long, deep breath as he saw Ankera beating as usual.
Guffin was still caught on Ankera’s nerves and his heart ached again.
“Come in, my daughter.”
The moment Ikael took a step, the door closed.
Kukukukukukuku!
It was a sound I had heard countless times, but now for some reason it felt like my escape route was being blocked.
Ikael opened his mouth.
“Why…
“Do you want to ask me why I didn’t punish you?”
“That’s right. “I also want to know exactly what happened in the meeting with Guffin.”
Ankhera held out Guffin’s body towards Ikael.
She had to exert utmost concentration to keep the Holy Light Body from shaking.
“Guffin made me an offer. Who is qualified to become God? “We risk everything for each other.”
Surprised, Ikael looked up at Guffin.
In the end, she was unable to hide her expression as her soul was drained from her face and only the light was shining from her pupils.
“Ichael.”
Ankhera asked.
“Did I do something wrong?”
The moment Ikael heard those words, he felt like his mind was falling into the abyss.
God makes no mistakes.
“…Anke Ra.”
“The world just exists.”
It was a magnificent voice that was not mixed with any of the strange noises I had heard before.
“There is nothing good or bad. I simply exist perfectly and maintain it endlessly. Ankera only judges for the sake of the world.”
Ikael was listening silently.
“My daughter, everything in this world falls under My definition, but you are the most special.”
“I know.”
“It’s not just because it’s the first.” Ikael waited for the next words with puzzled eyes.
“When I was unaware of my existence, an intense light exploded within me. Amplification. That’s you. A concept that lies on the borderline between non-existence and existence. That is why you are different from other angels.”
“It’s different?”
“At the moment of amplification, the world was divided into two. The world of non-existence and existence. “The reason you are the purest angel in the universe is because you took all of your turbidity with you.”
It was my first time hearing this.
“Satan Lucifer. The point of symmetry in the law. Although it was born on the same day at the same time, it is a hidden being that embraces eternal darkness on your behalf. “In a way, you could say they are twins.”
Ikael’s holy light body shook greatly.
“He is now…
“No. He purified himself and disappeared in the other world. “For now, only the concept of Satan remains.”
“Why?”
Ankera lifted Guffin high.
“Lucifer made a deal with Guffin. In exchange for protecting you, Kael, I will be purified instead of Guffin.”
“What is that… no. That couldn’t be possible…
A memory from a long time ago flashed through Ikael’s mind as he shook his head and denied it.
‘So me then?’
There was a time when I caught a photon cannon thrown at Ikael and caught it on my back.
‘no.’
The first kiss that made me realize my heart.
‘That can’t be possible!’
Even in the midst of a fierce fight with the Gaians, there were many interactions with the Guffins.
“I… wasn’t.”
Tears of light flowed down Ikael’s cheeks.
What did you expect?
‘How happy I was.’
Another feeling that I couldn’t control when Guffin said he would stay in heaven.
“It’s just an illusion, Ikael.”
Ankera’s nerve endings reached out and wiped the tears from her cheeks.
“The mind is nothing but an illusion created by the system. An error called Guffin tried to destroy the world. “Why didn’t I punish you?”
Ikael felt Ankera’s touch.
“Because there is no need for that. “You are just infected with the error called Guffin.”
“God, I…
“Do not be afraid. I defined this world. And you are the beginning of defining that definition and all of my thinking.”
If Ankhera was the brain, Ikael was the thought.
“Yeah, I couldn’t swallow the hexa. But look. Even now, Guffin is under my control. Maybe this is perfection. Isolating errors that occur due to the existence of the system into the system. And now the law has become stable again.”
Guffin’s body came back to Ikael.
“My beloved daughter. If I were to deceive you, I would not be God. But if I am a god…
Anker Ra said firmly.
“This is right.”
Ankhera does not deceive.
Because it’s cold.
“The Ultima System will soon be dismantled. I will give you a human. “I will create people who will not be afraid or confused, but will only praise you.”
“Ugh… no…
Ikael, who was kneeling with his head on the ground, was constantly shaking.
Satiel, who had been waiting for Ikael to return to Zebul, spotted her and quickly flew over.
“Archangel!”
I flinched at Ikael’s mesmerized face, but I was more worried about Guffin than that.
“Have you met Anke Ra? Why did this happen? “What happened to Guffin?”
The moment he heard the name Guffin, Ikael’s face distorted with anger.
“Do not mention his name before me.”
“yes?”
“He is the one who exposed his teeth to Anker Ra under the pretext of a meeting. “He is a fraud, nothing more or less.”
There was no lie in Ichael’s words.
‘And he even despised me.’
Although he was planning on making a life-or-death decision with Ankera, he did not even mention it to her.
‘You used me. There was no such thing as me in that guy’s heart to begin with
.’
“But Archangel Guffin…
“Satiel.”
Satiel, seeing Ikael’s terrifying eyes, unconsciously kept his mouth shut.
“Don’t make me say it twice.”
As Ikael went to his room, Satiel slowly opened the way.
“Let no one approach the sanctuary of Arabot. “This is an order given by an archangel.”
Ankera instructed the angels to find a way to dismantle the Ultima System.
Kariel found the answer.
“The drink of anecdotes. It’s about unifying the Guyanese people. After purification, the amount of black elixir remains in excess. It’s just difficult to collect. But if you send an angel, there will be no problem.”
Yuriel asked.
“Integration? “Wouldn’t that actually make the enemy stronger?”
“It’s simple. The core of the Ultima System is that diverse personalities pursue one right thing. So far I haven’t been able to destroy one. “If that’s the case, then the various aspects of individuality will be destroyed
.”
Satiel stood up and slammed Moby Dick’s table.
“I am against it! We can’t exterminate the Gaians when we don’t even know if Guffin is alive or dead! All procedures will proceed only when the entire process is transparently disclosed!”
“You don’t need to worry about that. Because the giant created by the alcohol of anecdote will be separated into humans again. “This is the only way to eliminate the Ultima System.”
“How is that different from murder?”
“You don’t understand. You’re saying it’s not murder? Humanity will prosper more than before. Under our control.”
Satiel could not bear it anymore and looked back at Ikael.
“Archangel! “Please say something!”
The angels’ eyes were focused on Ichael, but there was no answer.
Just looking ahead with a blank expression was a familiar sight in Moby Dick.
A long time has passed since the meeting, but her condition has not improved at all.
“…Enough for today.”
This too was a familiar saying.
“ha.”
Ichael lay in bed and tossed and turned all night.
‘Why are you doing this? Everything is over. The world is stable and I am CEO Cheon.’
I thought they would become enemies over time, but my feelings for them grew stronger every night.
‘You used me! liar!’ Even though I was so angry and my teeth were shaking.
‘Is that really true?’
It made me wonder if there was another reason.
‘It was all lies? ‘All that?’ We had known each other for such a long time that even with our angelic reasoning, we could not believe it.
“Guffin??????
The moment I repeated his name once, a wave of emotion came over me.
“Huh!”
Raising his body with a groan, Kael flew towards the spire of Arabot.
When she arrived at the sanctuary, she gasped and glared at the door.
‘There is a Guffin here.’
A distance covered in 1 second at her speed.
How many days have I come here unable to overcome my impulsive emotions? Ikael desperately held out his hand.
‘I want to meet you. No, if only I could see your face. Just one last time…
I felt like I could forget everything.
-The mind is an illusion.
The moment Ankera’s words came to mind, Ikael bit his lip and hastily withdrew his hand.
Closing her eyes tightly and clenching her fists, she calmed herself and looked at the door of the sanctuary.
It was quiet, as if no one was living.
‘it’s over.’
She turned around with a sad expression, spread her wings of light, and returned to her home.
‘It’s all over.’
Another night was passing by.
