Chapter 302

Steam Bun was the one that made the fenrir cub nervous It had disappeared one day only to suddenly reappear like this Philip stared at Steam Bun as it lay limply in Chi-Woo’s ar on with Kabbalah?

“…I did, but why did you have to word it like that?” Chi-Woo asked, but Philip quickly went on to the next question

—What has this guy been doing with Kabbalah?

“I don’t…know that either,” Chi-Woo answered

—What? Why?

“Well, what happened was…”

During the ti to invade Shalyh, Chi-Woo had gone to Kabbalah’s te to utilize the fact that their holy territory was still ‘inco after Chi-Woo explained the situation to her, Chi-Woo hadn’t felt good telling her this unfortunate news After all, noher the city no longer needed her protection when the White Horse General caotten God and barely ain after thousands of years And soon, she was going to be forgotten again

“It can’t be helped,” Kabbalah said “If people don’t need ly calm

“Goddess Kabbalah, it’s not that we don’t need—”

“I don’t really resent you for it” Kabbalah shook her head She accepted her fate like someone who had experienced countless heartaches and separations already “It’s just that whenever things like this happen, it makes me wonder…as I formed from such an inconvenient wish and desire?”

She sounded a little sorrowful as she laood desires like love and bravery Even things like sloth and lust are better I could’ve been born from a human’s instinctual e and chewed on her bottom lip, her head lowered

“…I really disliked the way I was”

“…”

“That’s why I wanted to become a new God”

“…”

“And blinded by that desire, I did so divine punishh Chi-Woo didn’t say anything He was the one who est he could fatho on his shoulder, quietly listened It was calm unlike its usual self and seemed to empathize with Kabbalah’s story It crossed its newly formed arms and nodded

After sohtly hoarse voice: “Did you already realize that this kid isn’t human?”

Chi-Woo nodded silently He already knew this after checking her inforh his Spirit Eye Balal wasn’t born She was artificiallyKabal’s appearance

“Yes, this child is not hu for that matter” Kabal placed her hand on her chest “She doesn’t have her oill and can’t do anything by herself She sirahtly and said, “She’s nothing—siood, selfish Goddess’s pure greed”

Kabal clutched onto so and raised it It was a circular ball that shone inside her hand It looked like the ht sky, or a nucleus Chi-Woo instinctively knew that this was Balal’s true self

“Oppa,” Kabal said while stroking Balal pitifully “I will do as you say But in return—I’m not even sure if I can say that—can I ask you to do ht deeply about what you toldmomentarily as soon as my preparations are done” Chi-Woo was surprised by this sudden news Though he had thought she ht do that, he didn’t wish for Kabbalah’s disappearance

“I’uishinto a very deep sleep I wouldn’t wake up for a very long time, but…” Kabbalah made a bitter smile “But if I hide hed and lifted Balal “I don’t want this child to re a life while awake Isn’t it terrifying to live like that?”

The current Balal was incomplete Since she was not fully formed, it was inevitable that they would clash as they had polar opposite characteristics At the current ti each other There was only one solution to this problem

“Thus, I hope that while I’m asleep, you will coh whatever means possible”

It was then Chi-Woo realized that Kabbalah—no, Kabal hadn’t given up on Balal yet

“She’s an existence created because of ive her an end ona new God or not, Kabal wanted closure

“I know it’s a lot to ask for, but you are the only one I can trust around irl for their own evil purposes Because you are—”

Before Kabal could finish her sentences, Steam Bun jumped up and sed the core inside Kabal’s hand in one bite Because it had happened in an instant, Chi-woo stood looking stunned Kabal’s eyes also widened

“Hey, you bastard!” Chi-Woo yelled after realizing what had happened No wonder it had been keeping quiet—!

“How could you suddenly—!” Chi-Woo ran to him and shook Steaain Yet Steam Bun kept its mouth firmly sealed with the resolution to not spit it back out

“Are you kiddingthis way and yelled angrily

“I see!” but a hopeful voice—unlike Chi-Woo’s frantic one—exclai”

As he saw Kabal clap in aht to hi about

“I see Now that I think about it, there was this guy I coot about it It’s like I received a surprise present”

Chi-Woo blankly looked back to Steas crossed and stretched out its arerated manner

“But I’m surprised To think you would consider my position and prepare an answer beforehand…” Kabal nodded and tilted her head slightly while folding her hands behind her back “As expected Is this what it feels like to have an older brother? Ha!”

Chi-Woo stared at Kabal as she htest smile she had ever made

—What? So what in the world did this guy do?

After hearing Chi-Woo’s explanation, Philip looked down at Steam Bun curiously and asked

“…I don’t know” Chi-Woo frowned Even when he checked Steam Bun with his Spirit Eye, he didn’t see the same information as he usually did All he saas:

[assi to Hawa, Stea ancient tih Goddess La Bella and several other Gods arred with her…” Chi-Woo scratched his head and continued, “I think I heard that he was the first…ah, as it again? Anyways, I think we can expect sos”

—So did Kabal fall asleep inside Balal, and this bun accepted Balal inside hi Steaht Steam Bun didn’t use to be this color; it was probably the effect of accepting Balal inside it

—Hm The combination of a mysterious creature that Gods made and an artificial saintess that another God made…

Philip looked intently at Steaain

—I don’t think they would be couy also worth cultivating?

Chi-Woo didn’t respond right away As Philip said, Steam Bun wasn’t an existence he could exactly describe yet But because they didn’t knohat it would beco And as Chi-Woo looked at Steaht the one who could lead it in the right direction was hie (1/1)]
