Chapter 87: Only one who can help her (1/2)
”Dear candidate, congratulations. You have successfully become an immortal. Now, you can choose whether you want to take the path of light or darkness.” The brown-haired angel in a purple suit announces happily. Behind him, there are two doors - black and white.
”My name is Laniel. I can guide you to the sage realm if you choose the path of the light. If you choose the path of darkness, you have to wait. The demon is not here right now. He must have gone to play cards with his friends.”
”Fang Aisa! Fang Aisa!” Sung Jun calls her name repetitively. He has no time to listen to the angel's crap. Fang Aisa is lying lifeless on the white marble floor. Laniel finally notices her. It has never happened before. Someone brought a corpse out of hell like this.
”Candidate, she is already dead.” Laniel stares at him weirdly. ”I am curious why did you bring out a corpse with you.”
”She is not dead.” Sung Jun summons the death scythe. ”Help her or I will cut out your core and send you to oblivion.”
Sung Jun remembers his past life. He has killed demons when Dabria unleashed the demons on the world. He doesn't know whether angels also have cores, but he could try.
On the other hand, Laniel is scared out of his wit. How did this man know about that way to kill an angel? What should he do? The woman is clearly dead. Even if he tries, he can't do anything without the will of heaven. But, that's the scythe of primordial God Death himself.
Reis walks out of nowhere. Sung Jun scowls at him. Everything happened because of this selfish god. He stands in front of Fang Aisa, shielding her from him.
”Step aside.” Reis looks at him dully. ”I am the only one who can help her.”
”What are you going to do with her?” Sung Jun doesn't trust him one bit.
”I am a God.” Reis reads his mind. He pushes him away. ”I am sponsoring her. There is no way that I will let her disappear like this. She is one step away from becoming an immortal.”
He walks to Fang Aisa and sits beside her. His eyes waver for a moment when he notices the damages on her body, but it's gone with a moment. He grabs her wrist and says,
”Human, you are useless.”
The god's energy flows into Fang Aisa, swirling through each of her cells. Fang Aisa is not dead. If she was a full demon, she would have died when her demonic core was taken away. But, she is also a human. So, she didn't die instantly, but her body is severely damaged. Her cultivation veins are broken. The dark energy is trapped and chaotically moving around.
Reis releases the chaotic dark energy from her body. She doesn't have the demonic core anymore, making her body unsuitable to cultivate the dark energy. He didn't see this coming. If he had known that she had Jar'Golen inside her, he would have never sent her to this place without safely taking the demon out of her body. If he had known, Jar'Golen couldn't have hurt her like this.
The godly energy slowly works on her body. Her body doesn't reject his energy, meaning that she is becoming an immortal. If Sung Jun didn't bring her here in time, she would have died in hell. Her soul would have gone to the oblivion. There would be no return for her.
Sung Jun also notices that her aura is becoming stronger. Her core is rebuilt as an immortal. He feels like his life is back. He didn't lose her this time. He realizes something. He is weak. If he was strong, he would have the ability to rebuild her core. Then, she wouldn't have been hurt like this. He nearly lost her because of this.
Fang Aisa starts breathing. Her cheeks gain color. She opens her eyes languidly. She furrows her dark brows when she sees Reis. She tries to sit up, but Reis stops her. ”Wait.”
”You stupid god.” Fang Aisa is not the same idiot who will ever listen to him. She continuously slaps his face. ”You sent me to hell.”
