64 – 064. Side ep. Heavenly Demon of Pleasure

Pantheon. A gigantic temple made of sparkling white marble on the walls, floor, and ceiling that exists somewhere far in the heavens.

The deepest place. A lofty throne perched on a huge altar bathed in moonlight.

In front of him, the thirteen angels who manage this world were lying on their knees with their wings folded.

Basically, angels do not show emotion. The exception was Arael, who had just been born and was immature, but the rest of the angels were good at hiding their feelings. However, at this moment, similar emotions appeared on the faces of the thirteen angels who were seated here.

Agitation. Unrest. And fear.

Why are the angels who manage the world agitated, why are they anxious, and why are they trembling in fear?

The answer could be found in a woman seated in power, whom they bowed her head to.

Hair as white as snow and red eyes. The tails of the eyes soared hysterically. The black uniform with gold embroidery was stuck together like a cheongsam, revealing the outline of the body. Her beauty was so outstanding that the search term ‘Kyungkukji color’ was not inferior at all, but there was a corner where the light faded a little because of her frowning expression. Nonetheless, no one can deny that she is beautiful.

Her name was made up of three Chinese characters with a soft resonance, as if to indicate her beautiful appearance, but no one in her place called her by name.

She just called her ‘The Heavenly Horse of Pleasure’ after her own nickname.

She is the owner of her nickname, which seems to have been created as a prank that Ahn Su-ho cursed at hundreds of times.

She looked down at the angels as she arrogantly crossed her legs. Her nervous gaze scans the angels. Just that gaze made the angels tremble in fear. Among them, when it comes to her youngest child, Arael, she is almost incontinent.

There was only one angel who did not tremble from that overbearing gaze.

The second angel. Lightning Ramiel.

Her Heavenly Demon of Pleasure fixed her gaze on her and asked as if passing by.

“…… So, who chose ‘The Knight’s Grave’ as this double dungeon?”

“I did. Creator.”

In response to that question, Ramiel quietly raised his head and answered. Soon, deep wrinkles were engraved between the brows of the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure.

“Explain. Why?”

-Koo Goo Goo!

With that question, a huge pressure was pressed down on the angels.

“Keuugh!”

“Ke, keheuk!”

As if they were drowning in the deep abyss, the angels couldn’t even breathe and suffered. Some of the angels couldn’t even maintain a prone position and crawled on the floor. It was the same with Arael. With her unsightly tears and drool, she clutched her neck and looked at Ramiel with her troubled gaze.

Ramiel’s back was straight. From the quivering ring of angels, you could tell that she too was under pressure, but that was it. With her eyes closed, she was like a calm lake, receiving the pressure from her master. Arael didn’t understand how she could hold her position.

“…… I am stupid and cannot guess the meaning of your question. What did you ask me to explain…….”

At Ramiel’s careful question, the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure let out a roar-like roar.

“Why did you choose the tomb of a knight with an intellect as the master monster? That’s it! Thanks to that, a useless variable was created, and the long-awaited ordeal was ruined! Just calmly choose ‘Black Flood Sea’ or ‘Swamp of Despair’! What is the reason for choosing a dungeon with an intelligent body, and especially the tomb of a knight with ‘that Wilhelm’!”

The intangible pressure contained in the screams was directed at Ramiel. The other angels let out their choked breath and breathe heavily. On the other hand, Ramiel’s expression was greatly distorted. Her posture still didn’t collapse, but the halo that floated above her head swayed wildly.

“Wilhelm was originally an ordeal arranged for Ryu Tae-hyeon! Even if I pull it out, I never let it run into the possessor! He has a good sense! If I come into contact with the possessed chair that my authority intervened, of course they will notice our existence! When the puppets on the stage become aware of the existence of the outside world, the laws of the world are distorted and the stage itself collapses! You must have known that too! But why!”

The Heavenly Demon of Pleasure was enraged. The way he ran amok was too emotional and passionate to be a transcendental figure and a god of a world.

“Why did you bother to choose Wilhelm as the ordeal for Ahn Su-ho? Ramiel, there must be a legitimate reason for this situation that I don’t know about?”

Would you like to say something? At that question, the eyes of all the angels turned to Ramiel. Soon Ramiel opened her eyes and looked up at her master. Golden eyes revealed through pure white bobbed hair gave off an intelligent light.

“What could be the reason for that, Creator. This case is just my obvious negligence and negligence.”

“………… What?”

“Since Living Armor originally appeared in the dungeon, it naturally reminded me of a knight’s tomb. Although Wilhelm is an intelligent being, he has no mercy for those who invade his master’s tomb, so he thought that he would be able to carry out the obliteration of the river and sky as intended by the Creator. The possibility that the Creator spoke of was stupid and I did not dare to think of it.”

“…… Are you saying that now?”

“Please punish me. I will gladly accept any punishment.”

“Huh.”

After those words, the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure smiled as if he was full of energy as he looked at Ramiel, who lowered his head. The sound of her laughter resonated loudly in Daejeon. The magic power that filled her space swayed dizzy at her laughter.

“It’s negligence. Yes, like the sound of the morning star’s breathing last time, your negligence has gone too far. Ramiel, weren’t you originally a particularly intelligent child among my children? Could it be that he became arrogant just because he was granted the rank of the second angel? When I asked why nothing happened these days, it must be because of your negligence?”

“…… Yes, Creator.”

Ramiel listens to her master’s scolding with her head bowed. Seeing her like that, Arael put on a sad expression. It was clearly Arael’s fault for the morning star’s breathing, but Ramiel covered it instead. Seeing Ramiel being reprimanded even more for his own mistake, Arael was driven mad with guilt.

“Originally, Kang Ha-neul was an arrangement prepared for Ryu Tae-hyeon. But somehow I ended up getting involved with Ahn Su-ho, so I couldn’t use it. So, she tried to discard it through this ordeal, but instead, she ended up driving a wedge into the love affair. How can I do this…….”

“Creator. May I dare to speak?”

The one who asked that question was Ramiel, who had been scolded just before. The Heavenly Demon of Pleasure let out a laugh at that courageous appearance. She nodded her head at Ramiel.

Although Ramiel has made a few mistakes in her recent days, by nature she is his faithful follower.

If it was her mantra, she thought there would be nothing wrong with listening to it. She must have been thinking about this, for she dared to speak in spite of the harsh rebuke.

“If I dare to say it, I think it would be best for you to stop intervening in the flow of the story any further.”

I thought so, but the words Ramiel said were completely different from what she expected from the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure.

“What?”

“The transcendental intervention distorts the laws of the world. However, the Creator has already intervened several times. Not only did she adjust the four possessors and various variables, she also directly twisted the flow. If I dare to express my opinion, even the current level of intervention is already at its limit, and if I interfere with the world more than this, I might get noticed by him-“

“You dare!”

-Kwaaang!

At that moment, a huge roar echoed through the Great War.

All the angels raised their heads in unison. One side of the seat of power had collapsed. The Heavenly Demon of Pleasure, it was because she hit her armrest with all her might. Furious with her anger, her face reddened, she rose from her seat and slashed at Ramiel.

“You dare to exalt someone else in front of your master, Ramiel! Have you really gone so far as to forget the etiquette of a servant?!”

The other angels bowed their heads even more, even though they weren’t blaming themselves. Ramiel also bowed his head as if to apologize, but there was no hint of remorse on his face.

‘That kind of thing is also a god… ….;

Ramiel swallowed a laugh at the rudeness of the owner who ran wild because of only one title. It was a disrespect unimaginable if it were another angel, but Ramiel didn’t care.

“Whoa, whoa.”

The Heavenly Demon of Pleasure, who loses his temper because he can’t control his anger. Seeing that, Ramiel had the impression that he was truly like a child. Despite claiming to be a god, he was neither omnipotent nor omniscient, and the figure swayed by human joys and sorrows was nothing short of a child.

Ramiel opened his mouth at the thought that his owner had taken care of his sensibility.

“I apologize for my mistake earlier. However, Creator, please understand that my concerns come from worrying about the safety of you, the owner.”

Ramiel looked up at the Demon of Pleasure with anxious eyes. Regardless of the meaning he had inside, the emotions expressed in those golden eyes were infinitely closer to the real thing. To the extent that even the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure, which transcended the realm, could not bear to doubt it.

“…… What is the difficulty set for him now?”

The Heavenly Demon of Pleasure, whose anger was slightly tempered by those eyes, asked Ramiel.

“What do you mean by bastard?”

“Of course you are talking about Ahn Soo-ho! Say it right!”

“…… It is the third one at the highest level.”

“Raise it to the highest level right away. Unlike direct intervention, the system is under the laws of the world, so you can adjust it to your heart’s content!”

“That word means direct intervention… ….”

“I will listen to your concerns and refrain from directly interfering with my flow for the time being. That would be the way to go.”

“…… Since you have listened to my request, Seong-eun is overwhelmed. Please create I will do as you have commanded.”

“But, Ramiel. I have no choice but to punish you for your mistakes.”

The Heavenly Demon of Pleasure gently raised his finger. The end points to Ramiel.

-Pigak!

“How big?!”

In the next moment, the halo that had been glowing above Ramiel’s head split in half with a shrieking sound. The radiance that floated around her slumped down disappeared and her pure white wings were stained with faded gray.

“Listen to Sinner Ramiel.”

At that call, Ramiel struggled to raise her body.

“I will temporarily revoke the rank of the second angel given to you, revoke all your authority, and confine you to the deepest basement of Cocytus in order to reflect on your negligence and regret it. If you are my faithful servant, accept this sentence without complaint.”

“…… I will serve you.”

Ramiel politely bowed her head. Halo broke her, and her mind and body seemed to be twisted in shock, but a faint smile was on her face.

This is good enough. She said she had pretty much accomplished her own goal anyway.

Ramiel’s smile was one of repentance, but no one present dared to guess what she was thinking.

After a while.

Guided by the other angels who were once her own brothers, Ramiel was imprisoned deep in the Pantheon’s basement, in Cocytus, a prison filled with cold chills. The chill on her flesh made her tremble, but her expression remained calm.

Trapped inside her twilight cage, Ramiel leaned against her cold wall and embraced her own body with her two wings. Her gray wings, which had lost their brilliance and were crumbly, were nonetheless quite good for her cold weather.

-Dubuck. Tboob. Tboob.

At that time, footsteps echoed throughout the basement.

Ramiel did not stick her head out near her cage. It was because he could clearly predict who came to visit him.

“Ramiel sister… ….”

The one who appeared soon was Arael, the 13th angel who was seated at the bottom of the thirteen angels. Ramiel smiled softly at the sight of her youngest child looking at her with her worried eyes.

“Go back, Arael. There is nothing good about being close to a sinner.”

“Sin, sinner! I don’t think you’re a sinner!”

“In this world, the words of the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure are the law. If he said he was a sinner, he was a sinner. Or is it possible that Arael wants to go against his word?”

“That, that… ….”

Arael pursed his lips with a troubled face. While she couldn’t do this or that, she started to have small tears in her eyes. Seeing that, Ramiel let out a laugh.

“Arrael. As I always think, you are truly a human angel.”

“Ahahahaha. Joe, that doesn’t sound good…….”

“I meant it in a good way. An angel without emotions is just a machine following orders. Machines cannot think for themselves, reflect, or develop through reflection. But Arael, an angel who has not lost his emotions, is different. Like the humans down there, you have the potential for limitless growth. So don’t be ashamed of those human emotions and cherish them.”

Ramiel’s detached attitude made Arael feel a strange sense of incongruity. For some time now, the doubts that had been sitting inside of her reared their heads. In her mind, she wanted to bring that suspicion out of her mouth and ask it, but Arael, concerned about the aftermath, only moved her mother’s lips.

“Uh, sister… ….”

However, Arael, who made up his mind soon, raised the topic. Her Ramiel looks at her.

“Ho, did you do that on purpose? Even when the morning star breathes. And even now. This, you deliberately feigned a mistake so that the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure’s plan would go awry…….”

Arael, who was speechless, swallowed his breath. Ramiel’s gaze pierced her coldly. Despite the loss of her authority and her fall, the two intelligent golden eyes tied Arael’s heart together.

“Poetry, Poetry, Missing Words. Misrepresentation-“

“Arrael. You are a new born and you are growing really fast.”

“Yes, yes?”

However, the next moment, seeing Ramiel smiling warmly, Arael asked with her dumbfounded face.

“You who used to be innocent, who didn’t even have any doubts and just did what you were told, now you know how to keep your head down and think for yourself. I am really proud of your growth as an older sister. That’s great, Arael.”

“That, that word can’t be-“

“Of course your suspicions are wrong. Heavenly Demon of Pleasure is the creator who made me, my parents, my master, and the supreme being who does not allow me to compare myself with anyone else. How could I deliberately cause trouble to such a person? It’s good to question and doubt what’s in front of you, but this time it’s a little off the beaten track.”

“Ah. Ahahahaha…….”

Arael smiled shyly at those words.

“Yeah, that’s right. I guess I was mistaken, a little misunderstood. Why did i do that? My sister can’t do that. Joe, the audience just a moment ago was so shocking that I must have lost my mind.”

“It must have been the first time for Arrael to have had an audience with all the angels. Your body and mind must be tired, so go upstairs and rest. If possible, don’t come down here after that.”

“Yes, yes. Then oh, let me go up.”

“Oh, yes. Arael?”

Arael, who had half-turned at the call, looked at Ramiel again.

“Why is that?”

“When Ahn Su-ho discovered his identity the other day, did he ask you for something? If an unexpected crisis strikes you, at least give me a hint.”

“Ah.”

Arael recalled the memory of that day. The memory of the day when his identity was revealed to the possessor because of his stupid mistake.

A cold sweat broke out on the back of Arael. What would have happened if the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure had found out about it then? Looking at the way his owner showed to Ramiel today, he would not have taken it lightly. At least he would have been punished worse than Ramiel, who had been stripped of his rank and imprisoned in a dungeon.

“That, why?”

Arael asked with a worried face. Why are you bringing it up now? Arrael couldn’t have expected Ramiel’s intentions.

‘…… Uh?’

I didn’t expect it at all, but one fact came to my mind belatedly.

He did not tell Ramiel that he had contacted Ahn Soo-ho. When Morning Star’s failed to retrieve the sound of his breath, didn’t he just report that Ahn Su-ho went first and failed to retrieve it?

‘How, how did you know?’

Arrael’s face turned pale. He thought no one had noticed. The moment she came into contact with Ahn Su-ho, fortunately out of her misfortune, no one observed her surroundings.

But why?

How?

“… ….”

Arael couldn’t even ask how she could bear to know, she just trembled. A thousand thoughts raced through her head. Most of it was her work on her own treatment. She was worried, concerned, worried about the unimaginable ‘punishment’ that the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure would inflict upon her.

“That request from Suho Ahn…….”

“Yes… ….”

Arael swallowed her dry saliva. A thick cold sweat broke out on her hands as she watched her boiling tension.

“Try to listen as much as you can. Within your power, of course.”

“…… Yes?”

However, Arael stupidly asked back at Ramiel’s words, which were completely different from what he expected.

“D, do you want me to listen? What is that-“

“It is a story to help Ahn Su-ho. The Heavenly Demon of Pleasure refrains from direct interference for the time being, but when the difficulty level rises to the highest level, various crises will come to him. I am asking you to help him wherever possible so that he can overcome the crisis.”

“Uh, why should I? Doesn’t the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure hate that possessed chair? So, she manipulated all kinds of variables to bring trials and hardships to the possessed person-“

“Ah, Arael. Even though they say they have grown up, they know one but don’t know the other.”

Ramiel stood up from his seat and slowly approached the cage. Eventually, holding her behind bars, she vomited out her thick breath. A warm breath tickles Arael’s cheek.

“Right. Heavenly Demon of Pleasure hates that possessed chair. But at the same time, I love and care for you. What he wants to see is not simply the suffering of Ahn Su-ho. You want to see him struggling desperately, overcoming the crisis despite all kinds of trials and adversity.”

It was something I couldn’t understand. Ramiel kindly added to Arael, who had a puzzled face.

“Arrael. Do you remember what the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure said today? I tried to dispose of Kang Ha-neul, which was no longer usable. That’s why we prepared a variable called a double dungeon.”

Arael nodded softly. He shuddered with fear throughout the audience, but he remembered everything that had come and gone.

“Isn’t that strange? If you want to dispose of the river sky, there is a much simpler way. Why did you order to prepare a complicated double dungeon?”

“Ah, to give Ahn Su-ho a hard time…… ?”

“That is correct. To be precise, to give it a pleasant and exciting hardship to watch.”

At those words, Arael nodded as if he understood the rough situation. Seeing that reaction, Ramiel smiled inwardly.

‘How can that be?’

Actually, most of what she said to Arael was a lie. The Heavenly Demon of Pleasure does not spare Ahn Su-ho. Their owner simply wanted Ahn Su-ho to suffer. A human story of overcoming adversity? A victory won after a desperate struggle? That wasn’t what the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure wanted to see.

Nevertheless, the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure did not give Ahn Su-ho a direct and insurmountable crisis.

Even though she tried to dispose of her river sky, she couldn’t kill her directly and brought the double dungeon incident that would happen in her future to the present.

‘It’s simply because I can’t reach it. I’m not omnipotent or omniscient when it comes to claiming to be a god.’

But he didn’t tell Arael about that. He skillfully mixes truth and lies with the revealed facts to dazzle the young angel in front of him. It was a very plausible story if you didn’t know the circumstances. This young, innocent angel will not doubt his words.

“…… Indeed. That’s how it happened.”

Look at that. Ramiel smiled as he saw Arael nodding her head at her innocent face.

“So, I want you to help An Su-ho. Of course, as long as you don’t get caught by other angels or the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure. Even if I don’t tell you why, you’ll know, right?”

Arael nodded her head vaguely. In fact, it was a bit puzzling as to why Ramiel said this, but she was willing to ask.

“Everything is to provide him with a more enjoyable pastime. If you understand, go upstairs.”

“Yes… ….”

Arrael looked back at Ramiel hesitantly before disappearing on the other side of the prison.

“… ….”

Ramiel, who was left alone, leaned against the wall as before and embraced himself with his wings. A cold chill to the bone consumed her body, but her beating heart warmed her body warmly.

As she beckoned into her air, a translucent image of her surfaced. Observation of the underworld, which is the most basic of angelic powers. Halo was destroyed and she lost all of her angelic powers, but it seemed that only this basic power was still left.

In the blurry video, people busily coming and going were reflected. In the middle of it, there was Ahn Su-ho, unconscious on a stretcher, and Kang Ha-neul, closely following him.

‘Please, struggle hard.’

I struggled and struggled and struggled until I finally managed to thrust a blade into the throat of the false god who brought me into this world.

I hope that such a day will come. Thinking so, a deep smile appeared on Ramiel’s lips.
