69. War Begins Again (4)
“Is there really a livable land out there? Beyond the continent of Jose. “I can’t believe it.”
“It’s really difficult to break common sense. But no one ever thought that the continent of Jose would come down to earth, right?”
“That’s right.”
Although Katran was with Zeke and others,
he was unable to acquire the qualifications to see the other side of the world.
Like the two main knights, they were still living within the rules of humanity on the Jose Continent.
Zeke didn’t go around talking about such things carelessly.
“Aren’t you excited?”
“Yes, of course.”
“I want to go too. “Go further away.”
Zeke said this and looked up at the sky.
Now this star is narrow. If
you were to fly using the two Shinigami Beasts,
you could make one revolution in a few hours.
I had a general idea of what was farther away than even the distant mountain ranges.
The alpine region called Tibet in the distant past and the fertile plains beyond
it are the best land for growing wheat as they are moderately cool.
If we were given that land, wouldn’t the desire to go to war subside a little?
In fact, Deus’ story that the demons may be deliberately becoming enemies to prevent humanity from extinction
has become a truth for Zeke as well.
Fighting with them felt meaningless and I only dreamed of a further world.
I turned my attention to Regin, who was leading the army in front.
Because of that idiot… I ended up returning to human society.
I cleared my thoughts with a laugh and shook my head.
—Human, when are you going to quit?
Deus’ voice
could never be erased from my ears.
“I’m not here to clean.”
The fairy grumbled next to her master who was napping.
Still, Skathul cleared the desolate tropical island.
The appearance of the place had not changed much from the day Regin left.
Migo and Signy had cleaned it up, but it was still a mess.
“Ask Michael.”
“
Are you blatantly treating me like an angel even though there is no one there?”
“Then you can argue with the Fairy King Raziel. Oh, how corrupted it was.”
“You act like a twisted child because you don’t have Zeke.”
“That’s not necessarily true…
“Then is it because Yulgeum isn’t there?”
“Why does that damned woman’s name appear there?”
“Damn woman, it’s been a while since I heard those words.”
“A damn woman is a damn woman. When did it change?”
“If you want to see me, why don’t you come and apologize?”
“it’s okay. We’re currently recruiting heroines. Do you want to apply?”
“Is that the man?”
“Is there such a distinction among angels?”
“You know. “Among the angels, only the archangels can be women.”
“That’s what I heard.”
“Have you noticed now? How long has it been since we fought against the army of the Lord of America?”
“I don’t know, but they only fired light bullets from afar, so I couldn’t see any faces other than Hamiel. Then,
could you please introduce me to a suitable archangel? How about Michael? “Is it worth making the female lead?”
“Michael is an outstanding angel. “He is one of the four angels called the Four Great Angels of the New Testament.”
“Is it Michael Gabriel Raphael Uriel?”
“yes. “Those four people are the four great angels of the New Testament.”
“Gabriel has a temper. “I even went so far as to be honest.”
“The angels of the New Testament are stricter about discipline than the angels of the Old Testament. “Because we only received the law
from God .”
“You said you never saw God in person, right?”
“yes. “He only spoke in the tabernacle.”
“Why did you do that?”
“We don’t know why God does this. I don’t doubt or worry. “Doubt means corruption.”
“That’s what happens when you lose faith.” Leaning on a bench by the beach, Deus looked out to the distant sea.
Scatul sighed and said at the lonely sight.
“There’s no one around you now.”
“shut up. “When you say that, it feels like something has been overlooked.”
“Is it different?”
“I don’t know about other things, but that Nezar bastard got hit in the back again and got kicked out. “I can’t believe I’m taking advantage of the opportunity to chat with angels.”
“They say it’s because of Hamiel’s dark force field.”
“If you’re going to block it, you should properly block it with a barbell. By blocking my warp ability and senses, that bastard activated the Tower of Babel
and ran away. “I guess I’ve gone quite far since I can’t even sense where I went.”
“Master, your extra senses only cover the orbit of the moon, so you can assume it’s not there.”
“Where on earth is that big bastard hiding? To be honest, I was a little caught off guard. “When Utnapi Shtim or something like that built a huge ark, I had no idea that they would always abandon it and fly away.”
“Even if you try to chase it, it seems difficult to even guess the direction.”
“But it worked out well. Both Nezar and Babel
are dangerous. “Wouldn’t it be fortunate for this planet if it just disappeared far away?”
“As long as there’s a guarantee that I won’t come back.”
“What are you coming for? Like this star. If you come, will you be nothing more than my slave? “The contract is still alive.”
“Well, the demon contract is a bit harsh. But is it also impossible to summon by contract?”
“Because I can’t read signs. My voice won’t even reach me. “Managing him is beyond my ability at the moment.”
“The demon contract also had such a blind spot.”
“Well, I guess I’ll leave this to the angels. “I’m sure they’ll want to find Babel, too.”
“You’re irresponsible.”
“If I wanted to take responsibility, I wouldn’t have quit being the Demon King in the first place.”
Deus lay down on the beach bench again.
Deus spoke to Skatul, who was just about to turn around and continue cleaning.
“But you…
“Yes.”
“Have you seen Lucifer?”
“no. “I am an angel of the New Testament.”
“okay?”
“Why are you suddenly asking that?”
“no. So when do you mean ‘new drug’?”
“Don’t you know?”
“uh. Because I’m not interested. “I may have heard it once, but it was such a minor thing that I forgot.”
“The day when mankind established its first kingdom. That’s when the golden age began.”
“Humanity created civilization and God disappeared?”
“It was a time when God appointed mankind to be the masters of this land. The name of the first ghetto they established was Eden. “It was a rich land surrounded by four rivers.”
“Amitis behold your kingdom. This is Eden. It’s Babylonia. It’s Alexandria. Those seven red typhoons will become the pearls that adorn your neck. Be the queen of Io, Ganymede, Europa, and Callisto.”
The ziggurat itself was a ship in the sky.
Utnapishtim was merely a camouflage covering the ziggurat.
The trees of Sephiroth, the 10 engines that brought the continent of Jose to the ground, really stretched out like branches around the central unit, the ziggurat.
Jupiter was where Nezar arrived, using a dimensional travel thruster called the Tower of Babel.
There were seven red typhoons on Jupiter.
These were traces of the collapse of what was once called the Great Red Spot.
In the sky, where the Seven Red Spots could be seen at a glance,
Nezar hid themselves with Babel’s Curtain.
As Babel was a device that could control dimensions, it was also able to create a camouflage membrane using the phase difference between dimensions called phase cloaking.
Hidden in a tent that even the angels could not notice, Nezar raised his glass to Jupiter.
“Amitis. Tell me. What your kingdom can do.”
“Your Majesty. “Jupiter has only 3 percent of its remaining resources.”
“Know. Almost all of the elements that filled that star
were already mined out in the past. However, even 3 percent would be far more than the resources on Earth.”
In the Gilded Age, humanity mined most of the solar system’s resources.
The trigger for the final destruction was a war between Nezar’s children over ownership of minerals.
Compared to the expanded human population, resources were ridiculously scarce.
If the migration out of the solar system had been successful, a completely different future would have unfolded, but it ultimately failed.
The remaining resources were depleted at a rapid rate, and humanity also perished.
“It is as your Majesty said. There is currently enough energy to operate the ziggurat. The production plants divided into 10 Sephiroth roots are operating at full capacity. Adapa, the weapons they will use, their food, their clothing, and even the slaves they will mate with. “Production of everything is progressing without a hitch.”
“We must crouch here until Gilgamesh is completed. I have failed countless times. However,
it has never failed in the end.”
“Your Majesty always wins.”
“I will bring the angels to their knees and eventually even God will come under my control.”
“Your Majesty will become the master of the entire universe.”
“Amitis. Make Gilgamesh.”
“I will do as you command.”
Yulgeum saw the angel bound with his arms crossed.
Her name is Raguel.
He was one of the great angels who was once considered
God’s greatest interlocutor .
But now he had fallen and was trapped in a prison cell.
You can only talk to certain people.
All powers were sealed. A state of being alive, but not being said to be alive.
That was the angel’s restraint.
“Raguel, won’t you open your mouth now?”
“There is no God in this world. We are living in an age without God. It’s night. It is dawn. “It is dawn
when the sun will never rise.”
“Are you really crazy? Or are you just pretending to be crazy?”
“I know the true face of God. I remembered that voice and never forgot that speaking habit. What on earth is it that you are imitating God now? “Where on earth has our true lord gone?”
“He is also God. “Why did I have such absurd suspicions?”
“You are the oldest angel. There is no way you cannot distinguish the voice of God.”
“You can’t believe you doubt God just because you heard something different
. “It makes me wonder if you really are the Raguel I know.”
“Be suspicious. doubt everything. That may be the shortcut to the truth.”
“Why don’t you doubt me too?”
At that moment, Raguel looked directly at Yulgeum.
“But which one are you? Metatron? Or…
Yulgeum snorted.
“You’re really crazy.”
“Are you…? “The beginning and end of all this?”
Yulgeum turned around.
The face looked like it wasn’t worth answering.
Raguel shouted.
“You are not Metatron! Sandalphon! “What did you do to Metatron?”
The door was closed.
In front of him, Yulgeum sighed briefly.
“Poor Raguel.”
A woman waiting outside lifted her back from the wall.
“how is it?”
It was Kamael.
“I don’t think I’m crazy. also.”
“Why is my mind broken? Sandalphon. “It’s about your twin sister.”
“Yu O” Hmm…
“And now that I think about it, I can’t see it?”
“I know.”
“What did you do last time? “I have been carrying out missions alone since before the end of the Golden Age and became the leader of the Angels of Destruction.”
“More than that, how about Raziel?”
“Don’t even talk. Black scales keep growing
. “I’m trying to regain my composure through meditation, but it doesn’t seem to be easy.”
“Gabriel must be having a headache too.”
“It’s only natural since I have to manage two archangels.”
