Although it may be an illusion (1),
it is an anecdote that uses black elixir to melt humans and integrate them into giants.
The initial purpose was to dismantle the Ultima System, which challenged God’s authority.
Due to the nature of the technique, the development of technology depended on the quantity rather than the quality of experiments, and under the leadership of Kariel, the number of Gaians decreased over a very long period of time.
“Move quickly! It is a sacred ritual! It is to cleanse the sins of the law and be reborn into a new life!” The Maras urged, but Ilhwa’s liquor cabinets walked neither slowly nor quickly.
None of the Gaians had any offspring, and now they were the last 100 left.
From today onwards, the art of anecdote would be carried out through a new human race called subjects.
A truly historic day.
Ichael watched the Gaians from afar as they walked to the bronze giant statue.
There seemed to be no resistance or resentment.
I know why.
This may be because the more they follow Guffin’s will, the clearer it becomes who is truly closer to god.
‘But it’s in vain.’
Ikael’s star light body gave off a dry glow.
‘I am the only being in this universe who knows about the meeting between Ankera and Guffin.’
As long as she keeps her mouth shut, no one can know and it is as if she does not exist.
‘You foolish people, why don’t you know that this is a meaningless struggle?’
Satiel shouted from the center of the square.
“Stop drinking anecdotes! You’ve already done enough! Please let us continue the legacy of the Gaean people!”
With the advent of giants and fairy subjects, the ranks of heaven were divided, and the rank of archangel soared through the sky, but no one paid attention to what she said.
It wasn’t that I was turning away, it was that my ears were already pierced and the sound was automatically muted.
‘It’s just right. ‘Do you still believe in humans?’ Ikael has never once intervened while Ilhwa’s drinking was taking place.
I thought it was the same today.
‘It’s just that 100 humans disappear and 5 giants are born.’
The giants who lost their egos returned from Jotunheim and were given new laws.
‘With this, Gaian history disappears forever.’
forever.
Ikael’s nerves were tense, as if the word ‘last’ was a magic spell.
‘Disappearing?’
All Gaians who knew about Guffin disappear from heaven.
The moment the thought stuck in my mind that I would never be able to ask or hear Guffin’s story again.
“Aren’t you afraid?”
Before I knew it, Ikael was talking to the people who were drinking in the story.
“Archangel!”
The Maras were astonished at something that had never happened before in the history of heaven.
And he hurriedly opened the way, but Ikael approached the Gaian without even turning his head.
“You know what it means to be a giant, right? Your spirit will be crushed and crushed and disappear without a trace. And a new law is written on a blank page.” It was a scary statement, but Gaian didn’t even show any change in his emotions.
That fact made me even more angry.
“How about you say something? Isn’t that great guy also the last Guy Ain? Are you really not afraid? Or are you resentful? What are you doing…
An old man interrupted Ikael.
“The weather is nice. “On days like this, I have to hang out the laundry.”
Ikael’s eyes grew cold at the absurd sound coming from the mouth of a person who was about to die.
“What do you mean?”
“What does it mean?”
The old man looked back at Ichael.
“I just answered meaningless nonsense with nonsense.”
Ikael’s lips trembled as he understood what he meant.
“Are you talking about the heart? Okay, I’ll tell you. That is an illusion and an error. Guffin is a fraud. “Would you like to tell me where he is and what he is doing now?”
The old man clicked his tongue.
“You’re out of your mind.”
Ikael was alive with murderous spirit.
“what? How dare a lowly human being insult the archangel?”
However, the old man seemed to be bothered to deal with him and apologized obediently and hurried on.
“That’s it. “I’m sorry.”
“wait!”
Ichael grabbed his feet.
“This is an issue that cannot be ignored! “You deserve to be punished separately from Ilhwa’s drinking!”
“ha.”
The old man sighed.
“What on earth do you want to hear from me?”
Ikael, who was trying to continue speaking, started shaking and his mouth closed.
“Are you curious about Guffin? I’ll tell you okay. As you say, Guffin is a fraud. Are you satisfied now?” Ikael was silent.
“Or should I say it like this? Guffin is not a cheater. He’s definitely not that type of person. “Will this make you feel better?”
I had no choice but to remain silent.
“Stop playing with silly words and mind your own business. “Come to your senses, you archangel.”
Human rudeness has not even entered my mind anymore.
“Guffin told me…
“No, no.”
The old man waved his finger with a sad expression.
“Wrong. To me, Guffin is what it should be.”
“no.”
Ikael’s voice trembled.
“I didn’t say anything. “He was going to leave like this, but he didn’t say a word to me.”
The old man looked at Ikael with deep eyes.
“Have you ever spoken to him?”
“That’s… Just
when Ikael was in a hurry to open his mouth, the old man spoke first.
“Yes, if I were to explain it, there is no limit. There must have been a reason. Because of the complicated situation or fear of not getting the answer they want. Anyway, it was difficult to talk for so many reasons.”
The old man, lost in thought for a moment, spoke.
“Wouldn’t Guffin have done the same?” Ikael, shocked as if his soul had escaped, opened his mouth in a daze.
“Why do you think you’re the only one who had a hard time? Why can’t you think that others exist? “The essence of the Ultima System.”
The old man placed his palm on his chest.
“Others are beings with minds just like mine. Therefore, what is difficult for you to do…
The old man shook his head with a sad smile.
“It’s hard even for Guffin.”
Ikael’s entire body was trembling and he could not stop his upper body from trembling.
“That’s why I say I throw it. Throw away your heart. It may come back or nothing may come back. So, as you said, it may be an illusion. but.”
The old man shouted as he followed behind the procession.
“You feel cool inside, right?”
Ikael, who pondered his words for a while, came to his senses and held out his hand.
“Oh, hey…
“Don’t come forward.”
The old man spoke firmly.
“It’s something I chose myself. “No matter what Guffin did, it was my decision and my choice.”
Gaians know what is right.
“You’re a fraud.”
The old man who arrived in front of the bronze statue raised his head and burst into laughter.
“Fuhahaha! “I heard a great joke before I left!”
He couldn’t stop laughing until the black elixir liquid filled the glass sphere.
In Ichael’s eyes, it was a heart that chose death without a single doubt.
Just like Ikael’s heart, the moon waxed and waned countless times.
Ikael’s shoulders were shaking as he was curled up in his living room, crying endlessly.
“Hmm!”
fear.
I imagined being crushed between two great laws that divide this world.
“God, what should I do?”
You have to put your heart into it.
And the price could have been the loss of everything, including the disappearance of Ikael.
-You feel cool inside.
The old man’s words were truly comforting, but at the same time, there seemed to be no better expression than this.
I felt like I was going crazy.
How much time had passed? Many archangels visited to report on the agenda decided at Moby Dick.
However, Ikael, whose mind was filled with conflict between alternatives, could not remember much.
“Huh!”
Then one day, an impulsive conviction came to me, as if someone else had injected my thoughts into me.
“??????Guffin.”
When she came to her senses, muttering without realizing it, she was already flying to the sanctuary of Arabot.
‘Open the door!’
The act of opening the door to the sanctuary at once was because the breaking of one’s will was more fearful than extinction.
“Ichael, what happened?”
Ankera opened his huge eyes and looked, but Ikael’s eyes turned to the Guffin floating in the air.
“iced coffee.”
Tears welled up.
“Answer me, Ikael. “I wouldn’t have even allowed you to enter this place, would I?”
I feel like the future I want will change the moment I share even one word with Anker Ra.
Ikael flew straight away and cut Ankera’s nerves connected to Guffin.
Blood appeared in Ankhera’s eyes.
“you…!”
Consequences not in the law.
The first physical shock inflicted on an absolute being caused even Ikael’s mind to go into confusion.
“Ichael!”
“Huh!”
She gritted her teeth and endured the sharp noise that shook the sanctuary, and left the Arabot at top speed.
‘far! further!’
There is no place in the universe to avoid Ankera’s eyes, but the place she was looking for was not a physical distance, but a place where she could find peace of mind.
After discovering a mountain range reaching 6,000 meters above sea level, she fell straight into a dark cave.
As the Holy Light dispelled the darkness and placed Guffin on the ground, his eyes gradually came back into focus.
“Guffin!”
Ikael’s voice was as earnest as he risked everything to get it back, but Guffin could not easily come to his senses.
It was natural since it had been under the control of Ankera for an enormous number of years.
“Where am I?”
When Guffin’s voice finally came out, Ikael hurriedly helped him up.
“Are you out of your mind? It’s me Ichael. Do you understand?”
Guffin’s glassy eyes partially traced Ikael’s face.
“…Ichael?”
Ikael barely held back from bursting into tears.
“okay.”
“Why did you… me…
Guffin’s words stuck in her heart like a thorn.
I wanted to ask.
Why didn’t I tell the truth, what was the deal with Lucifer, and why did that kiss back then mean nothing?
“Guffin??????
Ikael gently stroked Guffin’s cheek.
“buy??????
Tears of light flowed down her cheeks like a waterfall as she slowly let out a sound.
“love.”
Throw away your heart.
“I don’t care what you were thinking. Because I love you. I want to connect with you. “It can’t be done without you.”
It might not come back.
Ikael lowered his head and closed his eyes, as if he had already given up on everything.
“Hmm.”
When I looked up again, Guffin was smiling faintly.
“Out of 100 points…
Even though he was still not in his right mind, Guffin spoke clearly.
“It’s 100 points.”
A blush bloomed on Ikael’s face, but he soon looked down on himself and smiled bitterly.
“Is that your answer?”
Guffin shook his head slowly.
“no. “That’s not polite.”
Then, struggling to get up, he put his face into Ichael’s ear and whispered.
“I love you too.”
Electricity flashed in Ikael’s eyes.
“I can’t say since when, but I also wanted to be connected to you. “Really earnestly.”
Ikael, who was crying, eventually couldn’t control his emotions and burst into tears.
‘iced coffee. Ahhh.’
That heart and mind are connected.
‘How wonderful!’ Anke la God.
‘sorry.’
Even if the mind disturbs the law, even if all of this is an illusion.
‘I had this illusion…
A smile as pure as light bloomed on Ikael’s face as he hugged Guffin.
‘It’s so good.’
