Chapter 36: God
A Most Beautiful Place in the White Ring. Seraph sat on a golden chair, looking at the young woman, Sis, who was looking at him with a curious expression. A sinister aura emanated from Seraph. [Where is this place!?] Sis looked around with awe at the strangeness.
But because of the magnificent beauty, it felt like she was in a golden castle. A long time had passed, and the two hadn't spoken a word. Sis waited for Seraph to speak, thinking that Seraph had brought her here.
Seraph, not knowing anything about the situation, could only wait for Sis to speak. As time passed, Seraph finally spoke first. "Why are you here? You can call me Mr. Zero. What's your name?"
Sis nodded. "Yes, I'm Sis. I was brought here by the White Ring. Do you know where this place is?"
"This is my golden castle." So, could you please show me your white ring?
"This is the ring that swallowed me here."
Sis placed the white ring on the table.
Seraph looked at the ring curiously. [You can't see it at all, but you just left it there? At least if Mr. Sun was here, he'd go get the ring for me. Going to get it myself would greatly diminish my authority here. I'll give you a random answer for now. The important thing is, is this injured woman wearing a cloth covered in blood? I feel like I've seen this cloth somewhere before. That's a possibility.
It's possible that she's joining the Fate Organization. The person who named her is Mr. One, and the organization's purpose is unclear. Let's just use it as a market for selling goods and exporting within the group for now.]
"So, this ring. I understand. Then congratulations. We are the Fate Organization, which operates by trading and exchanging items. You can exchange valuable items for other people's items. And this is a healing potion as a gift for joining the organization. This is a healing potion.
Seraph placed the healing potion on the table. [I guess it's lucky I got a healing potion from Mr. One. Mr. One asked me to evaluate it for him, but I don't know anything about potions, so I accepted it in confusion. Then let this girl test it and hear her opinion.]
"Come and get the treatment. Drink this potion and tell us your opinion."
Sin began to move her body with great fear. If she didn't do as Seraph said, there was a chance she would be killed. That's what she thought. She reached for her destination and reached out her hand, trembling.
Her trembling hands were wondering what would happen to her if she grabbed the bottle. Her hand would be severed. [Calm down, calm down, calm down. Nothing's going to happen. There's nothing to be afraid of. Stay calm, Sis. Help! Someone, help!] Sis was shaking violently.
Seraph remained calm. [The girl was shaking so much she was showing signs of fear. Something needs to be done to comfort her. What? What's calming this child?]
Seraph hurriedly scanned Sis's face, searching for comfort. His sharp gaze caught sight of a dress similar to the Sisters in cartoons.
[This is the popular Sister outfit. Sisters are people who are worshipped by God, or what are called servants of God. Perhaps this child worships God. In other words, in the comics, when Sisters comfort people, what? What? What's that about? Never mind. Let's just put it this way.]
"Don't worry, poor little lamb. We're in good hands. Do you believe in God?" Seraph offered to ease Sis's anxiety.
Sis stopped her shaking hand. "No. If God truly loves us, why is he testing us? That's just a lie."
Seraph smiled to himself, because Sis's answer was so true.
[I thought she'd say she did. But I was wrong. But it's just like me. If God exists, why do you need to test me? My life in my previous life was so terrible. This isn't a belief, it's a lie. But never mind, let's talk about God first. Let's just say we understand each other.
Story]
"Then, you don't have to be afraid. We have no intention of harming you. Seeing you're injured, we wanted to treat you."
Sis nodded and took the medicine. [As this person said, if he wanted to harm me, he wouldn't waste time talking.] "Thank you very much." Sis picked up the bottle and took a sip.
A green light shone through Sis's entire body. The wound was slowly returning to normal.
Seraph watched as the wound healed. [I don't know if it was healing properly, but because the wound was starting to heal, it was healing.]
Time passed, and Sis's wound healed completely. Seraph watched with interest, the red blood still staining Sis's face. "Well, good luck then. Any questions?"
Sis bowed her head in thanks. [There's something I wanted to ask.] "Actually, there's something that's bothered me since I was a child. Why did God test me? Why did people die so pitifully? Why did all life have to struggle to survive? Why do people I know fearlessly kill others? Why has the world become a place of slaughter? If there could be a world where everyone is equal, why do we have to kill each other? I want to change this. Please guide me," Sis said seriously.
Seraph nodded.
[A question to find the truth? Alright, whatever. Just answer as usual. Tell me everything you can think of. Everyone's thinking is strange. If you want to change or help others, then let's do this. Change the world around you, huh?]
"If you want to change something, then be that thing. To control what you want to change. For example, a god who controls everything. You can think that way. God is the creator of everything. If you can do just this much like God, then you can change. This is how to change."
[Is this an exaggerated example? But this is easy to understand. If you were a god, you'd probably be able to control everything at will. I hope this child isn't thinking of doing anything strange.]
Sis bowed her head in thanks. "I understand now. Thank you very much. "Sis seems to have some goal to achieve." Then, I'll take my leave now.
"Okay."
Seraph sent Sis away.
The place was covered in black wolf blood. Sis was sent back. A golden cloak stained with blood was pulled out and held up to look at it.
"I understand. I understand. This is the method of transformation. The painting in front of me is of a golden winged goddess. According to many scriptures, this is called the servant of God."
Sis stretched out her hand to look at her right hand, which was covered in red blood.
"I understand now. The method of transformation. If God refuses to do anything or ceases to exist, I will take his place. God who only watches over people. Now, I will take his place. As Lord Zero said, because God can do anything. If I'm God, I can do anything. I've made my decision.
I will take the place of God. This is it. The Fate Organization is to change our destiny. "And then Sis called herself the messenger of God. No, she should be called a false god who claimed to be more like that.
