Book 4-1.3

There was a single existence in the middle of an glorious ball of light that was hidden away from the world.

At one point, this existence radiated throughout the world.

He quietly landed down while flapping his twelve wings of authority.

There did not seem to be anyone looking at him, but he was already aware of the person looking at him.

“Father.”

The existence opened his mouth and looked for his father.

“I am aware.”

The existence heard an answer in his heart.

“My son.”

If you faced this person face on, you might burn away. The existence felt like he was so shabby and felt like he could burn away from embarrassment, as he looked up at the empty air and started to speak.

“Father, did you really have to do that?”

The tone of the voice was very calm and relaxed, but there was a lot of unexplainable emotions mixed into it.

The existence continued to speak.

“Didn’t you really like them? Didn’t you really love them?”

“My son, I still love them.”

The existence started to speak louder.

“Then why did you have to do that? Weren’t they the creation you created with your two hands and breath?”

The father answered.

“My son, I do love them.”

“Did you destroy them because you love them? Is that why you put them through so much pain?”

The light started to shake as the existence started to raise the tone of his voice.

“I am their father and their creator.”

Once he heard a response, the existence bowed his head.

“Their sins had filled the world, and their every thought was evil that I regretted creating them in the first place.”

This existence named Lucifer, who was at one point, one of the most radiating of all Archangels but now had revolted against God and left, started to shout.

“Father, why did you not forgive them? Didn’t you forgive them in the past and won’t you forgive them in the future either?”

“I regret that I destroyed all of them with my water. I regret not loving even their wrongdoings. I will never destroy them with water ever again. And I promise change for the single pair of life that is now left in the world.”

Lucifer looked down at the world. Since the speed of time between the world and the location where Lucifer was currently at moved at a different pace, the world was already quickly starting to change.

Lucifer let out a loud sigh as he started to speak.

“Wasn’t it you who taught me to love? Wasn’t it you who taught me to love and love again? The wails of the people you have ordered to be destroyed continue to pierce this son’s heart. The emotions you gave them to think and feel on their own continues to bother me.”

Tears started to form in Lucifer’s eyes.

“Father, your son who does not know this thing called oblivion that you have given them is tormented without rest. That is the only thought that has been in my head ever since I have learned of your plan. That was why I put my faith in your love and forgiveness to go against you, father. I took up arms against you because I was afraid of your anger that may endlessly continue.”

Lucifer already knew of his father’s plan. That was why he went against his father and gathered many angels to revolt with him. However, Lucifer was blocked by the Archangel Michael and ended up falling down to earth.

He tried to get the people of the world to ask for his father’s forgiveness and make amends for their sins. However, his father’s anger was too scary, and Lucifer wanted to defend the world against that anger regardless of what it took.

Even with all of Lucifer’s efforts, the beings of the world that his father had created did not reflect on their actions.

That was why his father had ordered to destroy them with water. The order was carried out and the world was completely submerged under water after around forty days of continuous downpour.

Lucifer was very pained because of this.

Because of the abilities given to him by his father, he had already known about his father’s will and was prepared for this pain, but he was not able to adjust and it tortured him.

If he had not revolted against his father and fallen down to the earth, the order to destroy everyone would have been given to him with certainty.

“Father.”

Lucifer continued to feel the pain that could not be relieved and continued to wail out in tears.

“I am fearful about when the world will go against your will again in the future. I am fearful that they will call forth your wrath again in the future.”

Lucifer’s whole body started to shake.

“The seal where your other wrath is sealed, I am fearful that they will forget about it. I feel that they will question your omnipotent existence. The day that they release the seal that has your wrath sealed within it, I fear about the loudness of their painful wails. I am extremely fearful of that day.”

Lucifer stopped talking at this point and just blankly stared out.

The area surrounding Lucifer was filled with darkness.

“My father is the light and your son,  the one who goes against your will is the darkness. I believe in your love father, and I believe in your grand presence, father. That is why this son will revolt against you once more. The seal of your wrath, this son will seal once more. This son may end up an eternal sinner that may never be forgiven for not following your will, but your son will trust in his father’s love and do what he believes to be right.”

“The seal that is stated in the Holy Scripture to prevent the end of the world. The seal of destruction.”

What the old woman was saying was definitely surprising. However, Yulian was not surprised at all; he was merely curious.

“Mm, is that the truth?”

“Since they say that Lucifer himself had said so, there is a high chance that it is the truth. Neither devils nor angels ever lie. They just find ways to hide the truth.”

“Hmm, if it is as you say, then they did not do anything wrong?”

“It is because of the difference of opinion about that aspect that led to the continuous conflict between the Magic Tower and the Chaos Island. Each side believes that their belief is the right one.”

“I’m sorry to turn this conversation in a different direction, but I am not sure why I need to listen to this story.”

At Yulian’s question, the old woman had a ‘What a shocking question?!’ type of expression on her face.

“Didn’t I tell you earlier? You are a chosen one who was born with the Mandate of Heaven.”

“Why am I a chosen one?”

“How would I know the workings of Heaven?”

“Tsk.”

As Yulian made a noise, the old woman cautioned him as she continued.

“Listen closely. There are twelve chosen ones in the world and thousands of people who know and are aware. Six of the twelve chosen ones are destined to meet the Magic Tower first, while the other six are destined to meet the Chaos Island first. Isn’t that amazing?”

“Senior, I already have a lot of things to do. I really don’t understand why I need to hear such a story. I have my own dream and I do not want to get myself involved in anything else.”

“It is not getting involved but just the flow of destiny. Furthermore, how many people would choose not to care about the rift that can bring for the end of the world?”

Yulian shook his head at the old woman’s words. How preposterous was all of this?!

As Yulian thought about it, he remembered Mai saying something very similar. Did he say the recreation of the world?

“Mm, then please continue.”

At Yulian’s response, the old woman lifted up her hand to draw a weird drawing in the air.

Once she did that, a dim light started to shine in the path the old woman’s hand moved.

“The origin of the rift was from the creation of the seal on Chaos Island to seal the final judgement of heaven. The people of Chaos Island want to use human strength to make the world go around, and to prevent the end of the world. However.”

The old woman opened her hand and erased the drawing of light before starting to draw again.

“There is an absolute rule in the world about causality. Everything that happens in the world, and the results of those actions have a cause and reason for it. Our Magic Tower believes in that philosophy.”

The old woman’s hand started to draw a red image which started to intertwine with the original image. It wasn’t randomly moving, but actually creating exquisite figures..

“The Chaos Island goes against that absolute rule. Their action alone will make the world more chaotic, but they believe that is the right way. They believe that this world needs to move based on the will of the people in the world.”

“It is complicated.”

“Of course. When humans try to use their head to go against the rules of the heaven, it will always be complicated. But they do not believe that their actions will create the rift that will push forward the recreation. In fact, they believe that they are slowing it down by sealing it.”

Yulian thought of Mai and asked.

“Then what is Mai-nim doing?”

“Mai is reversing the seal of Chaos Island to nullify the effects of the seal of Chaos Island.”

Yulian finally understood why Mai had spent years down underground without ever being able to see the sunlight.

“Then Mai-nim must be one of the chosen ones as well?”

“Even that kid with him, Luff, is a chosen one. And the two of them have chosen to stand on the side of our Magic Tower.”

“Will I need to make a decision as well?”
