263. resurrection
I wondered what this was again.
I don’t see myself on the screen, so I think you can say anything about me.
Because in the first place, the god of life wasn’t even a kind person or noticing me.
However, the same god, the Goddess of Death, asked what was said now with a slightly bewildered expression on her face.
“Are you sure I understand what you just said?”
“what is the problem?”
“Why are you asking me to prevent Daniel from resurrecting when you tell me how to save Daniel?”
Then the God of Life frowned.
“As a goddess in charge of death, do you have any thoughts that the dead will be resurrected?”
“……Well, isn’t it a little uncomfortable?”
“I am disgusted.”
The resentment he spat out as if he were vomiting after clenching his fists with a distorted expression. The god of life was expressing strong emotions to the extent that his body trembled.
“The dead cannot be resurrected. That’s my rule. We cannot easily forgive those who dare to cross the rules.”
I thought that the god of life, whom I had met several times, had a calm expression and emotion rather than death or time. That’s why I was surprised that he was venting his anger so violently.
The goddess of death was treating her as if she were used to it.
“So you want me to stop Daniel’s resurrection?”
“Not only that. It was beautiful because his end was death.”
“……”
“In the end, it was brilliant because he carried through his convictions while destroying his body. If you’ve always seen death right in front of your eyes, you’ll know it well.”
The goddess of death did not bother to answer. However, it seemed that he was swallowing what he wanted to say by forcing his mouth shut.
“Time remembered him even as it destroyed itself, and in the end, it is trying to touch even the parts that it should not allow as a god of resurrection.”
“……”
“If you allow Daniel MacLean this time, what about next time? After saving him, if he grows old and dies, will he bring him back to life? If someone similar to him appears, will you spare him too?”
“……”
“Once a line is crossed, it is easier to cross. It is best to prevent it in advance.”
Watching the god of life vomit, the goddess of death was just listening with her arms crossed.
The expressionless expression she was making was so sharp that I wondered if it was the goddess who had just been arguing with me.
“Time does not understand. Only we, who are in charge of life and death, understand each other. How about death?”
I ask for consent only at the end of a long, elongated sentence. The goddess of death still spoke expressionlessly.
“So why did you tell Time how to resurrect it?”
Don’t say nonsense and cut it to get to the point. A cynical tone to simply state the purpose of the God of Life without agreeing or opposing it.
The God of Life frowned again and shook his head.
“Time will follow the resurrection method that I have taught you, without any doubt.”
“I guess so.”
“So, on the contrary, I mean I know all the paths she’s going to take. It’s never easier to block the way you know ahead of time.”
“……”
“You need to tell time for sure. That the resurrection of man is an unwritten law that no matter how much time dares to transcend.”
“……”
“After experiencing this incident, I want to completely give up on Daniel MacLean. You will realize how terribly deep and dark the boundary between life and death is, and you will not be swayed by humans who live for a short time and crumble.”
Needless to say, it was necessary to make the goddess of time completely forget the existence of me, as well as her ploy to prevent her from recklessly invading the realm of life and death.
Because it is a god, the scale is quite large.
“You are.”
The Goddess of Death, fully understood, looks at life with eyes of genuine disgust.
“Your actions from before are dirty.”
“……What?”
The God of Life, perhaps not expecting to hear such an answer, let out a breath as if embarrassed.
“You say you will make a god a god, but what are you doing in the end?”
He shrugged his shoulders and let out a thick sneer.
“You’re trying to make time walk on the road you laid. Just like humans.”
Crimson-colored heat soared from inside the screen and began pouring menacingly. Life’s face gradually began to turn red.
“And this time you instruct me to stop time? Will you tell me the way and the way?”
No answer.
However, anger like a rolling fire continued to invade the room. This is the world of fame.
In order to protect its master, it was pushing away the heat like an instinct, even though the cool darkness did not direct it.
“Because me and time lost their power, I must have looked down on them. Time seemed to be half-broken, and I only drew pictures, and I never came out of the underworld, so it must have been frustrating that we and you are the same god.”
“……”
“Did you really want to be the sole god of the continent?”
It was a good opportunity.
The three gods supporting the continent.
life and death and time.
Of these three, as many as two lost all their strength and went into recuperation.
Life would have to be greedy.
“Did you think you could put us under you?”
It was a word from the goddess that sharply pierced the core, but the god of life responded by slowly reaping her fire.
“okay.”
A courageous yet resolute attitude.
“It made me angry to see you, who are powerless and swearing at humans. It’s just that these guys and I are on the same level.”
“It is true.”
“Is that wrong? God must be divine. Why are you becoming human?”
“Are you crossing the line a lot today?”
The goddess warns with her eyes wide open, but the God of Life snorts and sneers.
“The barking of a powerless man is no different from a dog.”
“you……”
His arms are released and his clenched fists tremble as if they are about to be thrown at the life beyond the screen at any moment.
Saying sorry, the God of Life shakes his head.
“It would have been better not to know. It would have been happy for you, too, to be a puppet, half-broken like time, and to follow my instructions.”
“It’s bullsh*t.”
“Quit, cu cu.”
The god of life grabbed his stomach and started laughing. Even the goddess of death had no choice but to frown because the laughter was so bizarre that it gave her goosebumps.
“If I had known, I couldn’t help it.”
“……”
“Go to receive the underworld, prepare for eternal rest.”
Whoops.
The distorted space returns to its original state. Only the scenery of the dark room envelops us coldly.
“Crazy bastard.”
The goddess spat out a rare curse and soothed herself.
There were so many things happening all of a sudden, and it looked like she needed to organize her thoughts on her own, so I cautiously moved away.
The goddess sat down on the bed, biting her nails, and muttering a thought.
I slowly began to organize the candles, metal beads, and torture tools I used during exercise one by one.
Of course, even then, my head was spinning furiously.
‘It’s a dangerous situation in many ways.’
Two of the three bridges that supported the continent lost their strength. A power gap that has become overly lopsided.
If the god of life came out confidently like that, he must have judged that he had a chance to win.
‘This is not simply a matter of the gods.’
I feel that it could be a very big threat to the continent where we live. Right now, even at the end of time, that is the case.
Originally, death and life wanted to destroy the continent and create a new continent, but time was desperately opposed, so we had a chance to prevent the end.
But what if the two gods disappear?
The deterrent that could block the god of life disappears, and the world becomes what he wants. If it’s really bad and you suddenly say you’re going to destroy it, there’s no way to use your hands.
It’s not like you can go back now.
‘It’s a headache.’
Glancing towards the goddess of death. She was a little startled because she was staring at me.
“what? Why are you looking at me like that?”
Didn’t you notice the gaze
Even though she thinks that her senses have died a lot, the goddess of death doesn’t answer and frowns alone.
Eventually, he jumped up and came to me.
“Did you just hear everything? The life guy suddenly makes a sudden rush and tries to eat all of it.”
“……You explain very lightly.”
I was a little taken aback by the very simple explanation, but the goddess of death just shrugged her shoulders as if there was something wrong and continued talking.
“As you know, this is not simply a matter between us gods. It will greatly affect the continent as well.”
“Yes, I guess.”
“Ha, I really didn’t know I was going to say something like this.”
Grabbing my shoulders tightly, the goddess of death declared.
“Let’s revive. I think I will have to go back to the continent.”
that was expected
She sighs and presses her hands to her temples as if she has a headache.
“It is impossible right now. To resurrect you on the continent side…”
“Nope?”
“……uh?”
The Goddess of Death, who had started talking about her plan, paused and looked at me. I didn’t understand properly, so I said it again.
“I don’t want to be resurrected.”
