Chapter 738: Value (4)

The way they showed hostility toward each other didn’t even seem like they’d known each other for a long time.

‘Ah, where is the popcorn?’

Seraphim vs. Cherubim, Cherubim vs. Seraphim, there had never been a confrontation like that before.

Needless to say, the atmosphere was very serious. It was so fun to watch internal conflicts, hurting each other’s feelings, something like that. That was exciting. Like the Power Rangers, the fight between red and blue was always entertaining. It was a dream showdown.

Personal curiosity also arose.

‘Who’s the strongest among pigeons?’

Thronus seemed to be the strongest in terms of brute strength, but that wasn’t necessarily the case

‘In terms of physical abilities, Cherubim seems to have the upper hand. Seeing the fight with Cha Hee-ra, he’ll be hard.’

Well, combat couldn’t be judged by physical ability, but…

It was clear that he had an advantage. On the contrary, the advantage that Seraphim had was his absolute special skill. I didn’t know how much his power worked against another angel, but it was probably better than nothing.

As if living up to my expectations, Seraphim had already begun to pressure Cherubim. The sounds were so loud that I couldn’t even focus properly.

‘Hang in there, Seraphim. The future of the small world is in your hands. You can’t lose. We must capture the future with our hands.’

“Cherubim!”

“You stupid bastard!”

Wasn’t the way they called each other and hit at their weapons similar to scenes from great movies?

There hadn’t been any damage that could be called a critical hit yet, but it seemed that both bodies were getting dirty.

Baaaang!

Along with that sound, Cherubim was embedded into the wall. After a while, making the same sound, Seraphim was the one buried in return. As they clashed against each other several times in the air, sparks and light continued to flash.

As the blue angel wielded his scythe, the platinum-colored angel protected himself with a huge veil. It was a fight that wouldn’t end easily. They knew very well what the other could do.

“You must get away, Seraphim. Don’t you know you’re still haunted?”

“I told you to shut up, Cherubim.”

“Remember what you really were like. Is this who you really are? No one has ever forced you to change, Seraphim.”

“You’re talking bullsh*t.”

“You have to get out. It’s not just you. In order for us to move forward… we have to get out. You have to get out of that damn haunting.”

“This is what I am, Cherubim. It’s you, not me, that need to back off. You really have to get away from those narrow thoughts. If you did, we could climb to a higher place.”

“It’s not a narrow thought. I just want to protect us.”

“You are rotten, Cherubim. What remains unchanged is bound to rot. You can’t flow, and you’re still standing in the same place. You don’t even think you want to flow in the first place. That’s more comfortable, after all, and it feels safe. You don’t risk things like this. Luckily, I tend to do that.”

“…”

“It’s easier to choose what doesn’t change, so you don’t move. No, you have changed at least a bit. Enough to carry out this crazy plan.”

“I would have said that it was not me who called humans here. You are being deceived, Seraphim.”

“No one can fool me, Cherubim.”

“You’re out of your mind. Doesn’t it seem like you’ve heard this line a lot?

“…”

“You are losing yourself, Seraphim.”

“I’m not. I found myself. I’m back in my element. This is what I am.”

“That’s not what you are.”

“No, this is the real me.”

“You are just imitating him now.”

‘Wow. You touched a really weak spot.’

“Stop with the bullsh*t.”

“That’s not what you are, Seraphim. You are imitating him. You’re just copying him. His actions, speech, and thoughts.”

“That’s bullsh*t that isn’t even worth dealing with.”

“Think of yourself, Seraphim. Recall what you were like before. That was really what you were like. He may be the person you want to be, but you will never be him.”

“Shut up.”

“You want to be that human.”

“Shut up!”

‘Why do you keep making him embarrassed? How can you say that in front of me?’

I was the one looking at him with admiration just a moment ago, so how could he reveal his identity crisis?

How embarrassed and ashamed he must’ve been. Since he said that directly, it became a bit awkward. Just looking at his face was enough to make me realize that one was out of his mind. How shameful.

In fact, he really seemed to be ashamed. Up until that moment, it seemed that he was excited enough to have his feathers squatting, but he was blushing right at that moment.

‘I wouldn’t like that too. Hey. How embarrassed will I be in that situation?’

I could be sure that it wouldn’t take long for that shame to turn into anger.

Wasn’t he grinding his teeth as expected?

Seraphim raised his sword again, and Cherubim looked at him and provoked him once again.

“Why do you imitate that man…”

“Shut up!!!!”

Booooooooooom!!

Cherubim’s body flew to the other side, and it hurt me as he seemed to be trying to cover Cherubim’s mouth desperately.

‘I guess he was really embarrassed.’

It was in an instant that the fight they had confronted for their convictions became an emotional fight.

Perhaps Cherubim couldn’t have helped. Wasn’t it the basic psychology that if the other side came out emotionally, the other side would behave emotionally as well?

Actually, it wasn’t Cherubim’s fault. It might be a little disconcerting for him.

It wasn’t wrong to pinpoint his friend’s fault. Rather, he said the right thing.

He said with that much consideration, but if he came out that way, Cherubim would be upset too. Seraphim was the wrong one there. It was him in the end.

“Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!!”

“It is you who has to shut up, Seraphim! Until when will you be immature… Open your eyes and face reality. Look back at how you’ve been behaving!”

“Shut up, you traitorous bastard!”

‘Ah, he’s getting even more emotional. He even called him a traitor.’

“You… You filthy traitor! Do you think I will listen to you? Do you think I’ll hear you, who brought humans to the temple? Everything that a traitor says is a lie. Lee Kiyoung. Don’t listen to him.”

‘Ah, it looks uglier to make excuses to me here. That’s disgraceful. Ugly-raphim.’

“You are not Lee Kiyoung, Seraphim!”

‘Ah… now he said he’s not Lee Kiyoung. Gosh, that’s a critical hit. You’re really trying to blow him off. Although you can pinpoint the wrong, it feels like your method and timing are wrong, Cherubim.’

“Shut up!!!!”

Boooooooooooooom!

‘Gosh, this will destroy the dummy world, you bastards. ‘

“D-D-Don’t listen to that crazy traitor, Lee Kiyoung. No, just leave here right now. I will open the way.”

Looking at his urgent expression, it seemed that he was really nervous that I was here.

Wasn’t that just the right timing? I was worried that Raphael would come in, and if I stayed here and got caught in the fight, it’d be trouble.

Seraphim was likely to win, but if Cherubim won, I would definitely be in an awkward position.

“Yes… Yes.”

“Don’t be afraid, quickly!”

‘Ah, you’re pretending to be cool now.’

What was in his face wasn’t the feeling of wanting to protect me but shame. He was afraid that his private life would be revealed more.

The slow Cherubim continued to keep an eye on Seraphim’s position even at that moment. That bastard was really slow.

I began to understand why Kiyoung 1 had so easily controlled these bastards. Those pigeons were so bad at communication. It seemed that it didn’t matter if I judged that it was the difference with humans.

The same went for Cherubim, Thronus, and Seraphim.

They didn’t first meet yesterday.

Cherubim, who didn’t talk about it to Seraphim until the wound festered and burst, or Thronus, who blamed himself for feeling that he was falling behind the other angels. In addition to this, Seraphim was at a level where it was doubtful whether normal communication was possible in the first place.

Well, Dominions had a lot to say, but I thought she was better off not.

I didn’t know if they were already like that or whether they became retards because of the masked hero who suddenly invaded.

‘Actually, the cause of these bastards’ mental illness it’s not my business.’

It was like killing two birds with one stone, so that was enough for me. It was natural that I moved in a hurry. He opened the way for me to escape, so I had to get away quickly.

As I ran with the data of the small world in my hand, a loud voice came in.

“Fly!”

‘I want to fly too. Fuck. I can’t do that. In such a dire situation, with this much pressure, my wings will be twisted, then I’m going to get hit right down to the ground.’

However, when I saw Cherubim approaching me with a light on his eyes, I thought that I had no choice but to fly.

It’d look better to get stuck on the ground with twisted wings than to fall while running.

As soon as my wings started to flap, I saw him swinging his scythe. It seemed that he used a lot of divine power with the determination to slit my throat at once.

‘Gosh, fuck.’

Seraphim blocked it, though.

‘I flew for nothing. Fuck. I thought I would twist my wings.’

My body rolled on the ground. I thought I left something behind but was that more important than my life? Immediately after touching the floor with my hands, I moved in a hurry.

Boooooooooooooom!

A voice mixed with a loud sound comes from behind.

“Do not stand in front of me, Seraphim! You are now…”

“Shut up, Cherubim!”

As soon as I ran, I immediately began to see the door. When I opened it, a wide corridor greeted me. Just before exiting, a huge light passed right by.

‘Did I just almost die?’

-Die! This filthy traitor!

-Open your eyes! Seraphim! I am not the traitor!

When I looked at them with the telescope after getting out, I could still see the guys striking each other with excitement.

How long did I run? It was then that I felt some movement over the wall.

‘Is it him? Raphael?’

“Here! Come this way.”

However, the voice I heard wasn’t Raphael’s. I was worried that it might be a pigeon, but it was a voice I heard before, as I expected. I heard a pleasant puppy sound.

“Ruff!”

“There are no enemies around. I think you’re getting closer! Quickly, quickly! A little more, a little more!”

It was a face I had already seen with the telescope, but my anticipation rose without my knowledge.

‘I guess he missed me.’

I hadn’t really thought about him or remembered him, but my heart was beating.

‘I don’t understand.’

It was an emotion that I didn’t understand even if I thought about it. I hated to admit it, but I guessed I got affectionate. The moment I finally turned around the corner and met a familiar face, I had to open my mouth wide.

“Huh?”

“Hey… you… you crazy pig bastard!”

“Hyung-nim?”

I couldn’t help but smile.

‘This pig bastard! Fuck! This pig bastard! Haha! Pig bastard!’

I felt the pig bastard with a flustered face taking me as I threw myself.
