Chapter 233. Mabel’s Counterattack
2022.04.26.
‘Mabel is strange.’
Mabel was as confident, bright and outgoing as usual, but Aidan noticed long ago that he didn’t mean it.
‘It must have been since Devlin’s messenger came.’
It was clearly visible that he was trying to pretend nothing was wrong, so Aidan just stayed by his side in silence.
If you want to talk, you will, and if you don’t want to, you can be silent.
A lake in the northern forest where only moonlight remained. Mabel, who took a walk at dawn out of nowhere, sat by the lake.
After standing up on her knees, Mabel made an arm pillow on top and leaned her head on it, staring at the moonlit lake.
Aidan stood three steps behind. The closest distance to respond immediately to any emergency.
“Aidan.”
Aidan listened instead of answering the small but clear call.
Mabel, knowing that the escort was listening even without an answer, pursed her lips.
“I will never give up on Aidan no matter what.”
It was so out of the blue that I couldn’t figure out why he said that.
But Aidan agreed.
“yes.”
Even without a detailed explanation, even if I didn’t know why she said that, it was because Mabel’s heart for her was sincere.
“So Aidan, don’t ever give up on yourself. no matter what.”
“…All right.”
Upon hearing his confirmation, Mabel’s heart felt lighter. She brushed off her seat and stood up to face Aidan.
‘God called me to die.’
However, the stupid god Ades overlooked one thing.
‘You didn’t know that I, who should have killed you, would come to like you.’
And that that would be the best variable to destroy God’s plan.
‘I’m not afraid of things that haven’t happened.’
Originally, the future was a distant law because it was impossible to look even an inch ahead. It was human beings who constantly made choices in the midst of that uncertainty.
Mabel reached out and grabbed Aidan’s hand tightly.
‘My feelings should have been conveyed.’
Even if the whole world turns its back on me, I’m on Aidan’s side.
So, never give up.

Shinsoo Yang’s main daily routine was to straighten the discipline of the northern forest animals and organize their ranks as great shinsoos.
It didn’t grow into a giant, so it was small and cute, and it wandered through the northern forest, wriggling its short legs.
It was Ho-ho, a lonely tiger who lives in the deepest part of the northern forest, who was the first to get into trouble.
[Ho Ho. You’ve gained weight lately.]
[No…]
[I think you’re a complete pig.]
[I’m a tiger…]
Hoho babbles, ‘I’m not a pig, I’m a sheep…’ opened both eyes fiercely.
The next object that the sheep quarreled with was a herbivore, a herbivore, lying down without energy next to a carnivore, Hoho.
[Boss. Why are you drooping like this?]
[Mabel isn’t running.]
[Stop running. And Mabel is so big now that it’s hard for you to ride on top of him.]
[Mabel… doesn’t run.]
[Yes…]
Yang, who misses the old days with Mabel, was heading towards the forest entrance, leaving her behind. Found the object of fertilization.
It was Toto III and the tweeters.
It was warm for the winter with an ideal climate, so Toto was preying on a lot of grass still growing.
[Toto descendants. It’s crazy, so go over there.]
[The grass is better here.]
Also, Yang shouted at the chirping chirps bustling and pecking at the floor.
[Cheer, you go somewhere else to chirp. It hurts your ears!]
[I don’t like chirp.]
[Kondae or chirp?]
[Go to Shinsoo or somewhere else and chirp. Jjaaeaeek.]
[Jip. Go away Shinsoo!]
After saying one word, the sheep, startled by the onslaught of tweeters, hesitated and retreated.
[I’ll only look after you this time…]
In fact, only you didn’t know that the sheep were the last in the rankings.
When Yangyang was being humiliated only she did not know, she felt a familiar presence at the entrance of the forest.
“Sheep.”
When the true owner of the northern forest revealed himself, the friends of the forest gathered in joy.
[Let’s run Mabel!]
[Human!]
[Long time no see!]
Among the animals welcoming Mabel, only the sheep pouted and turned his head away.
[why? what about your boyfriend? Heung.]
“What? Are you jealous now?”
[Sometimes I was the only one. It has changed!]
“I…?”
Yangyang, who found Aidan waiting not far behind Mabel, meowed.
[It’s changed!]
[It’s changed!]
[It’s changed…]
The friends in the forest added word by word like a revolving song. As they helped, the sheep, whose shoulders went up even more, snorted ‘Heng’ and turned his head to the other side.
“Hmm.”
Mabel, who was sitting next to Yangyang, gently stroked Shinsu’s ear to ear.
Yang’s body melted away from the irresistible drug-like stroking attack.
Taking advantage of that gap, Mabel asked.
‘I came to ask you something.’
[…What? Anyway, why don’t you say it?]
‘I hope Aidan doesn’t listen.’
Mabel making a secret with Aidan behind her. It wasn’t like Mabel, so Yang was surprised inside.
‘Yang said you’d feel bad if you were with Aidan from the old days.’
[huh. It’s really bad.]
‘Why do you think that is?’
[What did this guy named Veron do to your angel? You say he’s a wizard? Didn’t he infuse that strange energy while betting something forbidden?]
Even Mabel thought that way until she read the ancient records of the Devlin family.
The hand that had been caressing Yang’s hair gradually slowed down. At Mabel’s behavior, which was quite different from usual, Yangyang pricked her ears and tilted her head.
‘Baby. I’m going to tell you something important from now on, but don’t show any signs of being surprised. In particular, making it gigantic is prohibited.’
[What the hell is that? Could it be that Mabel didn’t steal my snacks?]
‘Aidan is Ades.’
[aha. Aidan is Ades. I thought I ate my snack again… What?!]
I personally advised him not to be surprised in advance, but it was no use at all. After Yangyang bristled the hairs all over her body, she jumped up.
It was luck that he didn’t inadvertently become huge.
[What are you talking about? This body is a messenger of a great god. But there’s no way I don’t know God!]
‘My memory is back. That was the record I read in Veron’s lab.’
[Nonsense.]
The karma she had accumulated with Aidan since she was born in Yang’s head flashed past.
‘I cursed at him for being in a bad mood, teased him as an angel, got into a fight for no reason, and secretly stole the snacks Mabel gave him…’ If Aidan
were really a god, then he had committed an indelible sin.
[So let’s say that human or God is God. But why don’t you know anything?]
‘Maybe the bloodlines of Devlica erased Aidan’s memory to make it easier for them to use it.’
[Then, in order to escape from Devlin’s bondage…]
‘He called me.’
The atmosphere has calmed down. Even if you don’t have to say it, Yangyang interpreted other hidden meanings.
[So what are you going to do…?]
‘The sheep came to you because you didn’t know that.’
[It’s the first time I’ve ever had something like this…]
Yang Yi’s eyes glanced at Aidan and immediately went down. I didn’t have the confidence to look directly into those two eyes.
Aidan is dead It was a word I didn’t even want to put into my mouth.
Silence fell between them. Neither this world nor Aidan could give up.
Then Mabel suddenly raised her head.
“…for a moment.”
I was overlooking the most important thing.
After all, the ancient record was also the record of the Devlin family. written only from their point of view.
Aidan’s position was not reflected at all.
Perhaps, if he could directly see the situation in which Aidan was captured by Julius III, he might be able to get a clue to completely break the ban.
Just a guess, but worth a try.
‘Baby. Could we see Aidan’s past? Just like my dad saved me by using his core. It doesn’t matter if it’s a dream or whatever.’
[That was possible using the essence of the last tree of creation.]
‘Is there really no way?’
Yang Yang’s heart was shaken at the sight of Mabel clinging desperately.
[…but there is.]
‘What is it!’
But that was only for a moment.
[I can’t tell you.]
Yang firmly held on to her will to become weak.
It was way too risky. To the extent that I had to risk my life as collateral.
Mabel was just as important to Yangyang, so she had no intention of seeing her run into danger again like a moth.
***
‘That dark angel is God?’
Yang, the messenger of the great god, could not tolerate the remark at all.
Since then, Yang Yi began to hang around Aidan, killing as many signs as possible. However
, Yang
-i was too insignificant to escape Aidan’s polished senses
.
“What is Shinsoo?”
[Aug…]
Only then did Aidan, realizing that he couldn’t talk to him because he wasn’t gigantic, let Yang go.
Right away, the gigantic sheep looked around Aidan and looked around.
“I asked what.”
[no! …yo. this. nothing? …Yo.]
Shinsoo’s strange honorific words that he spat out. Aidan’s feelings became even more uncomfortable.
“Are you mocking me?”
[I’m not kidding!! Yom….]
“….”
She didn’t stop observing Aidan even as she received Aidan’s bloody eyes that looked like they would tear her to death at any moment.
‘I’m not sure.’
It was controlled and did not escape, but Aidan’s black energy was ominous and uncomfortable. It was hard to be in the same space.
If it was really a god, it would be normal for Abelard, who has the second most sacred power after Mabel, to have a comfortable and warm feeling like Michael the God King.
In the end, it was Aidan who ran out of patience first.
“go away.”
[Ha, I came because I had something to say!]
“What is it? Talk quickly and get out of here.”
[birthday present! What do you want to receive! …yo.]
It was a social life sheep who started to score points in advance in preparation for the possibility that Aidan was Shin Ades.

Natural disasters occurred regardless of place and people. The Devlin Empire was no exception.
Even so, Devlin, located in the northern part of the continent, was not a favorable land for farming, but always suffered from food shortages.
As the situation overlapped with drought and abnormal weather, people starved to death one after another.
Please don’t starve.
The people eagerly hoped and were locked in anxiety.
This food shortage problem began to threaten not only the poor but also the livelihood of the people.
But that wasn’t the concern of Veron, the Devlin Emperor.
“your majesty. You must come up with a remedy. Otherwise, the continuation of the people is in danger.”
“I think it is right to resume trade even now.”
“Due to the long drought, the wells in each village have dried up and drinking water is scarce.”
“Please think about it.”
Veron, who attended the meeting at the request of his servants, kept his seat with a sad face from beginning to end.
Their earnest opinions sounded like the cries of mosquitoes.
“What is the remedy? I don’t have time to care about that, so just leave it alone.”
Veron’s purpose was to become the god of the new world.
In the end, human survival did not exist. I will tear down everything and create anew.
If the life that should have disappeared anyway faded away long ago, there would be less work to do later, so it was rather good.
Veron looked around at his servants with bitter eyes and warned them.
“If you take up my time with something like that, I will slit your throat.”
.
.
.
and after a few days.
“Imperial people have rioted!”
Riots erupted throughout the Devlin Empire.
Hearing the situation report, Veron felt a subtle sense of deja vu.
There could have been a riot. However, it could not happen simultaneously throughout the empire. There must be a reason behind it.
behind, behind?
Eventually, there was someone who reached the end of the guess.
‘That bitch…!’
And at that moment, the emperor of Ermano smiled as he leisurely received a briefing on the situation.
‘An emperor who abandoned his people deserves to be judged by his people.’
It was Mabel’s counterattack.
