Chapter 35 (1/2)

“Cough, cough!”

coughed for a long time. Are you okay? As expected, seeing this. Karein, who had misunderstood, grabbed my shoulder and said seriously.

“If you go to Luce, you will feel better. Come with me.”

You’re not going alone, but with me? No, why? Why? I doubted my ears at the unexpected bombshell, but Karein’s expression was very serious. Oh my God. I stuttered and said in a hoarse voice.

“I’m sorry, that’s not possible.”

“…… Is it because of Abel?”

Why, like that. I felt sorry that the black eyes fluttered to the fullest, but I kept my mouth shut because it was clear that it would only make the situation worse if I said more. In the end, it was Karein who spoke again.

“…… He is gnawing at Lian. Didn’t he hurt you and be rude to you?”

It wasn’t wrong. Abel had been reckless from the first time we met. Even if it was a real swear word, he’d done it a few times. Still. I touched the bright red thread around my wrist.

“Sorry.”

“…… It’s because he’s holding Lian’s life.”

“No. Not because of that… ”

The moment I was about to say no, the barrier of the house shook violently. I got up and headed downstairs, feeling out of breath. He was standing in the hallway, soaking wet.

“You’re here?”

I’m about to approach him for fear of him saying anything else, but he raises his hand to stop me. As a gust of wind engulfed his body, his body, which was wet enough to drip with raindrops, dried up in an instant.

As expected, power is a good thing. Admiringly, I followed his hand gestures and approached him. Naturally, he grabbed my waist and pulled me into his arms. His cool palm touched my forehead.

“How do you feel?”

“It’s okay. Rather than that, we can go out of the Dark Age.”

“…… what?”

The red eyes hardened strangely. With half bitterness and half joy, I took a step back to Abel and delivered the news. I felt strangely guilty when he put me in his arms and told him.

“Saint Lucia has woken up. We now… ”

Shaak! A sharp sound rang in my ear. What, what? Before I could even close my startled eyes, I was startled by the smell of fishy blood. Abel’s forearm was stained black.

“…… you bastard.”

“Abel!”

The moment I was about to approach him, my body was pulled behind. Quaaaang, quang! At the same time as someone grabbed my shoulder, Abel’s slashes fell into place one after another.

“Stand back.”

The person who drew me with its power was none other than Karein. All of a sudden, Karein’s entire body, standing with a sword, glowed brightly. Suddenly, white wings sprouted from behind his back.

Obviously, in the Dark Age, it was said that the power of the gods weakened. What the hell happened? I glanced over at him with astonished eyes, and the inside of his hands and pockets gleamed particularly brightly. He had a glowstone.

‘I’ve been on the ground for a while.’

You’ve been accumulating power from above! My head was pounding and it hurt. Just as Abel’s strength grew when he gathered the spirits, the angels also seemed to gain strength when they received light. That was why Wazowski suddenly became wary of Karein!

“You …… You dare betray me?”

You won’t even be able to reincarnate, I’ll change your soul. Abel gripped his burnt shoulders and grunted his teeth. His arm, hit by her light sword, burns up like a flame, and begins to damage his shoulders and wings.

Abel! As I tried to come closer, he grabbed my shoulders once more. I wanted to shake the hand away, but my body stiffened and didn’t move.

“Aren’t you going to put that hand away?!”

Abel’s eyes lit up red as if Karein was hugging me from behind. Energy was gathering in Abel’s strong grip, and the moment the reaper scythe was about to be created, Karein grabbed my waist.

“Ack!”

“……… Forgive me.”

“Hey, Karein! Ack! Let go, Abel! Aackk!”

“Hey!!!!!”

A heavenly god who held me with one hand, spread its pure white wings. Quang! Although he was greatly staggered by the attack from below, he continued to move forward. The white wings that occupied the sky of the dark age stood out unparalleled.
