Chapter 939,
Chapter 233. Ayula (1)
Jin looked up at Ayula.
Looking back, hundreds of golden powers extending from Ayula’s body were connected to the light of Jin left by Rani.
And Ayula didn’t feel the same strength as before. Jin intuitively knew what choice Ayula had made.
“Ayula-sama, no way.”
[From the moment I decided to save these two people in the first place, I could no longer maintain my status. It would be too dangerous for a god like me to intervene so much in the royalties without paying anything.]
Death.
Ayula saved Dante and Hedo in exchange for her own death. The moment Paellito’s sword attacked the two, Ayula summoned them to her inner world.
Many immortals in the world use summoning or space jumping without any major restrictions, but it was a completely different matter for a god to do such a thing to save someone.
Dante and Hedo realized Ayula’s sacrifice only after overhearing their conversation.
“Ah, Ayula-sama!? Are you saying you chose extinction to save us?”
[That’s right, Emperor Dante Hiran.]
“A dwarf… A dwarf is a knight of the Empire! A knight is a man who will always die fighting for his beliefs. Did God give up his life for such a small man and Sir Hedo?”
I was so shocked that the joy of being able to see Jin and his colleagues again subsided in an instant. Dante was shouting almost in anger.
“If Soin and Sir Hedo disappear, someone will take their place, but if Ayula disappears, what will happen to the order that Ayula presides over in the Holy Land? The small person… I didn’t know that God saved me by leaving everything behind…!”
[So you don’t like it?]
“I don’t like it. If you can pull it off…!”
[Haha, I can’t turn it back. So please don’t be so angry. It has a cute taste, but how would I feel if I hated it that much?]
“…I also have the same thoughts as Geomwang, Mr. Of course, I didn’t trust Ayula-sama, and even the lives of my young lady and colleagues are more precious than Ayula-sama. Even so, the choice Ayula made… I don’t know the sword situation, but I don’t know if it’s worth it. May I ask if extinction could have been avoided if only Geomwang had been saved?”
[Yes, I could have avoided it. If only the sword emperor had been saved, I would still exist as a god.]
“Then I dare say, you should have saved only the sword emperor…”
Jin listened quietly, not knowing what to say.
[Jean Dante Hedo. listen children The reason I helped you and saved you was because I was convinced that there are more things you guys have to do than I have to do in this world.] “
How can we do more than Ayula-sama….”
[Black Yellow I am a god. ]
Ayula met Dante’s eyes.
[And God refers to the immortals who are bound by fate. So, even though most gods have much more power than mortals, they cannot transcend fate.]
-[Unlike mortals, immortals are subordinate to fate. That is the weight of immortality.]
Jin remembered what Ameris said the first time she met him.
[Did you ask a little while ago what would happen to the order of peace under the control of the Holy Kingdom and me if I disappeared? don’t answer The Holy Kingdom will rise again with the power of humans. And, as always, I will pray for peace every day. Even if I can’t hear that prayer anymore.]
I can’t hear that prayer anymore At that point, Ayula’s voice trembled for a moment. God was grieving.
[But does that mean that the concept of peace itself will disappear from the world? Not like that. There was a time when I and everyone believed that it would be like that… but not anymore. Even if I disappear, someone like you will fight to keep the peace. Even in some ways you have fought for peace more vehemently than I have. I just existed in the name of peace.]
Ayula gently moved her wings and stroked the heads of the three.
[So, at a moment like this, for an immortal like me to sacrifice for these people is right a hundred times or a thousand times. I’m even thinking that this might have been the purpose of my existence.]
Dante shed tears. Ayula’s last remaining power shimmered in his tears. Ayula burst into laughter as if he were admirable.
[This would have been the answer to my choice. And I don’t have much time left. I want you guys to help me achieve what I’ve decided to the end.]
Dante and Hedo no longer talked about Ayula’s sacrifice. It was just a waste of Ayula’s remaining time.
“Anything will help, anything.”
“What can we do?”
[First of all, Dante and Hedo have nothing else for you two to do right now. If Rani wakes up later due to Jin’s decision, concentrate on recovering. You will have a lot of work to do after recovery is over.]
“Jin’s decision…?”
Jin knew what that meant.
“Now it is my turn to make the same choice as Sir Ron in the past, Miss Ayula.”
Ayula nodded.
Just as Ron saved the dying Jin with the light of creation at the time of the Sword Emperor’s Crusade, this time it was Jin’s turn to save Rani like that.
[I couldn’t save Lani because I was trying to save two people. So while I was sad, I could see that you had left the light of creation to that child.]
The moment Lani became transparent, Jin thought that the light left itself.
However, the light was clearly left by himself. As soon as he climbed into the castle, what he unconsciously wanted most was the survival of his comrades, and that was what Rani was by his side.
[You know, Jin. If you wish, you can still retrieve this light and return it to yourself.]
“If you do that, the power of the creation that I have acquired will be intact.”
[okay. But you wouldn’t make that choice.]
“Of course. I will save my friend.”
If you look at it objectively, Rani is just a holy king with exceptionally strong divine power.
It has tremendous healing power, but it couldn’t be said to be of greater value than destroying the integrity of the creation that Jin had acquired.
However, in Jin’s view, saving Rani was more valuable.
Clearly, what was more required in transcending the fate that awaited him in the world was man, not strength.
“Power can be regained at any time. Also, even if I lose that much, I am still a genius. Even if I lost everything, my choice would have been the same.”
Ayula thought of Jin taking the power of creation alone without saving Rani.
Because he is not Azmil, and Azmil also cannot see the future of Changsung perfectly, so it is unknown.
At the end of it, it seemed that there would surely be an end to corruption like Paellito. However, the picture of Jin becoming like that was not well drawn.
[Huh, to be honest, I was a little worried about what would happen if you said something else. That’s why I nailed it in advance saying I saved Rani thanks to you. Even so, if you make a different decision, don’t you lose your shape? Of course, I didn’t think that because I didn’t trust you.]
“You were conscious of Changseong’s unique demonic nature.”
demonic.
Ayula was worried about Jin’s demonic nature, not Jin’s.
[Perhaps you will overcome even that well. Now that I see it, I can’t imagine you becoming a demonic monster.]
Jin moved closer to the light that Ayula’s power was connected to. The light was beating like a heart.
There was no need for Ayula to give any instructions. Just as a newly born life breathes and moves, Jin was able to handle the light naturally without anyone telling him.
As Jin held the light gently with both hands, the light leaked through the cracks in his hands and gathered upwards.
The light soon took the form of a man, and after a while it became Rani.
Rani was unconscious, but was just asleep. Dante slowly descended to the ground and embraced Lani.
[I will wake up tomorrow. My disappearance won’t be over by then, so I can say goodbye to that child.]
Resurrection is originally only possible with the tears of Numerus.
Now, Ayula was replacing those tears with the light of her remaining body, will, and Jin’s creation. The party looked up at Ayula, who was noticeably darker than before Rani was resurrected.
Rani will be very sad.
However, there was no reason to collapse buried in sorrow. She was a person who would fight to rebuild the kingdom and protect peace.
“Now I have to finish the last thing I have to do and leave.”
Ayula said as she landed on the ground. Ayula’s voice no longer had the characteristic resonance of a divine being. He has completely lost his divinity.
“jin.”
“Tell me, Ayula-sama.”
“What are you most afraid of?”
Even though it was a sudden question, Jin didn’t worry at all.
“I am afraid that this will happen again after I have gained such great power. I am afraid that something else might happen in the Holy Land today.”
Not being able to protect the people you need to protect and not being able to prevent the death of loved ones.
That was still the thing that scared Jin the most. If the moment came when his demonic nature exploded, it must have been because of that.
“If a huge fight continues, it is inevitable that tragedy will continue. It must be more frightening because you know that better than anyone else.”
“That’s right.”
“I’ll show you a way to alleviate some of that agony.”
Jin’s eyes widened.
“What… method?”
“What are you so surprised about? You have always suffered the death of innocent and powerless others. Every time I fought, I suffered without a moment’s rest. Naturally, that will was also closely involved in forming the power of creation you had acquired.”
“ah…!”
“I just looked at the characteristics of the creation power you reached before you lost your divinity. One of them was… regeneration.”
