Chapter 551
She seems to be asleep.
The doorbell rang.
Once again, the doorbell rang, followed by several knocks.
Whether he was completely asleep or determined to pretend he hadn't heard, Metatron showed no reaction whatsoever.
Novia, standing in the doorway, sighed, then pushed the door open, walked to the bathtub, and turned on the faucet.
He sensed Metatron's presence the moment he arrived at the Kuonji residence, and after questioning Erice and Alice, he became even more puzzled... Was it really just for playing cards?
"It wouldn't be good if you drowned while sleeping here."
Upon hearing this, Metatron frowned and slightly opened his eyes.
Still half-asleep and groggy, she rested her cheek against the edge of the bathtub, glanced at Novia for a moment, and then seemed to finally realize where she was. She then straightened up and shook her head like a dog often does, her messy golden hair splashing water droplets everywhere, leaving little marks on Novia's shirt.
"Ah... originally..."
How should I respond when I hear His voice?
Even if you want to keep smiling, your facial expression is probably just as chaotic as the thoughts in your mind.
"You're not going back--"
Novia was suddenly grabbed by the wrist by Metatron and pulled away before she could even respond.
The lingering mist, like a waterfall, obscured the surrounding scenery. From Novia's close range, all she could see were water droplets sliding down Metatron's eyelashes and down her hair to her chin.
"Metatron, are you... injured?"
"Shut up! Now try accepting my mouth! Lilith used to be like this too! Absolutely! She even dragged Asherah along, right? Why can't I? You can hit me hard if you want!"
If I could, I truly wish this moment could last forever, even if only for a moment.
Ah, so I guess I was the one dreaming.
How wonderful it would be if I could start building a relationship with Him here... This selfish possibility is so precious, I just need to pretend, just pretend it was an accident... My mind is so confused.
That's right.
What I want, what I want is...
Metatron's face flushed red, her mind in utter turmoil; she could even feel her own heart pounding loudly.
"I want it, I want it..."
Therefore, she spoke these words in one breath without interruption:
"Lord, please give me something that I can sit on and run around without doing anything, with a massage function, and it can even transform! When I'm at home, it can create an invisibility Bounded Field so no one can see me at all!"
"Holy Seat!?"
Chapter 557: I Do Love My Father (6k)
"I'm so tired..."
"Go to sleep if you're tired."
Metatron, sitting on the strange, suspended seat, lay slumped on the chair like a dead fish. As he flew over, Novia took a sip of Black Tea and then controlled the Holy Seat to shake, causing Metatron, who was like a dead fish, to lie flat on the floor once again.
A second later, after the pain subsided slightly, she finally managed to utter a tearful accusation. "It hurts so much—it hurts so much, Lord!"
The Sloth Metatron was so angry that he called out to the one he had once feared most. Seeing her lying on the ground with her eyes half-closed, Novia picked up a flashlight and shone it on her, to which Metatron protested:
"It's so bright!"
Then, the light shifted slightly.
"I thought it was something else! It's just Metatron. I thought there was a whale lying here."
"If there were whales in a place like this, the Crowd in the manor would drown."
"Oh?"
Although the combination of Sloth and their time Sloth had lessened Metatron's fear of Novia, she still cowered like a turtle being poked with a stick whenever Novia glanced at her.
"By the way, Lord, are you hungry?"
"I can cook for myself" —Novia didn't answer, unable to keep up with Metatron's increasingly Sloth train of thought.
"Fortunately--"
Metatron adopted a serious expression, pausing slightly halfway through his sentence before continuing:
"I have a lot of instant noodles and eggs over there, would you like to eat with me?"
After Metatron obtained the Holy Seat from Novia, he basically became a shut-in.
All I do all day is order takeout and stay cooped up at home, seemingly playing video games 24/7... I bet I bought these instant noodles and eggs online too.
"You still have these in your room? Aren't they all takeout?"
"It's alright, the noodles only need to cook for a few minutes, then add an egg and some vegetables..."
"Are you used to the food?"
After thinking for a moment about the meaning of the main statement, Metatron shook his head and replied:
"No, I just wanted something quick and cheap. Making anything else would be too much trouble. Cooking is just... such a hassle."
"And do Angel need to eat?"
"Ugh, Lord, stop saying all that. And whether I eat instant noodles or not is my own business." Metatron's eyelashes drooped, and his gaze drifted to the lower corner of the room. His muffled voice sounded like a murmur from the corner of his mouth, "I'll just cook instant noodles by myself, eat them by myself, and play games under the covers by myself without you finding out. I'll just be lazy by myself!"
Having said that, Metatron took control of the Holy Seat and returned to his secluded room to make instant noodles.
Lilith, who deliberately put Metatron into a state of Sloth, probably didn't expect this either. She originally planned to make Metatron as desperate as she was, and then turn him into a human. But now it seems that's about right. The once serious Scribe of Kingdom of Heaven has become so Sloth, which can be considered a fall from grace.
Of course, this was also a good thing for Novia. He had originally intended to knock Metatron unconscious and drive him away, but when he heard that all he wanted was the Holy Seat, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the Holy Seat looks alright, it doesn't suit Novia's aesthetic. It was originally intended for Tiamat, but because Tiamat is currently in her infancy, it will take a considerable amount of time to improve the Planet's ecology, so she won't be back for a while.
In retrospect, the Culprit the fr world was the Canaan king who was determined to seize the Old Testament in order to Revenge on Novia, and now it's all over.
He had at least managed to achieve his purpose for coming here.
Searching for information about 'Mother' Shekinah, the Queen of Heaven of the gods in the Old Testament.
Now that Novia has remembered the past, he is utterly speechless at this cheap Queen of Heaven.
Literally speaking, as Queen of Heaven, she should be considered his wife.
The problem is that the Old Testament was written after humans witnessed his actions, which led to the creation of the Angel Mythology embodies power.
It can only be said that although people in that era had a monotheistic understanding, they still had some polytheistic ideas.
But Novia understood that this was normal, after all, he had Anat under his command who was regarded as a 'weapon', so it was not surprising that the humans at the time mistakenly thought that she was a Queen of Heaven who belonged to him.
Seeing Novia's reaction, Anat realized that she loved humankind more than Love God, so she washed away her Divine Core, shattered her Divine Body, and dissolved her concepts, transforming into her, named Lilith.
Only,
Novia closed her eyes, as if she had fallen asleep.
Then--
"Please feel free to come Lilith me, WYY."
She lifted the bottle filled with crimson Wine, letting the Wine drip down her exposed body. The wine gradually gathered in front of her stomach, forming a strange pattern.
"What's the meaning?"
Novia turned around and faced Lilith, whose eyes were filled with love.
His pale blue eyes shone with the same gentle light as when he first met Lilith.
She, who had failed, was loved by the victorious Him, and now she wholeheartedly desires to give herself to Him.
"I've already said that, you'll regret it if you keep going like this~"
The silver-haired girl's eyes turned into cat eyes, and at the same time, she revealed her canine teeth, making a grinding sound.
"I don't regret it. If I were, I would have killed you long ago."
Yes, that's why I love you.
As Lilith spoke, she hugged Him tightly.
"And now I am human, the first woman in this Garden of Eden, the most Perfection human being, created through your hand. Everything about God on me has been spread across the land. I am so weak, so frail, therefore—"
You're overthinking it.
He gave a brief rebuttal, sending Lilith flying and crashing to the ground.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch! Be gentle! I'm a human being now, I can bleed easily..."
Lilith, pale-faced, trembled slightly and was on the verge of tears.
"You were meant to die for me."
"But..."
Lilith paused for a moment before continuing, "Then please grant me your child. I wish to bear your offspring, for you are my father, my husband, and my lord."
As she uttered those words, something deep within her was truly beating—not a physical heartbeat, but a connection to the distant past.
She experienced death and rebirth countless times, and when she finally embraced Him, she could hear His heartbeat from that moment.
Ah, I must have loved you deeply ever since before I was born.
"..."
"Please cherish me. No, I won't let you go easily now."
"You've become quite outspoken, haven't you?"
The moment His words fell, His gaze also shifted away.
Then, all the expressions on Lilith's face vanished.
"Aaaaaah!"
The silver-haired girl let out a scream that shook the heavens and the earth, as if she were about to shed tears of blood.
That voice, that face, that emotion—
Was Lilith, who was shouting to the sky at that moment, Wrath or weeping?
As if tearing their own souls apart, their hearts were filled with unfathomable despair.
Her profound and heavy emotions, driving people to the brink of madness, spread throughout the Garden of Garden of Eden.
"Are you just teasing me? It must be... I can't see you anymore, I can't hear your voice anymore, I'm so scared all alone... Let me see your face again, hug me again, I love you, I love you the most, I admire you, you're the first man I've ever loved..."
People say: Anyone who looks directly into the eyes of a god will be killed.
Even humans who are prophets can only see the back of the gods; no one can know the face of the gods. The Deity of the past died the moment their eyes met.
It can be said that this has become an established rule.
However, Anat (Lilith) was an exception; she saw it, died, and after dying countless times, she finally became a 'weapon'.
"This is the love you gave me, I don't want it to change—I don't want to let go! Please let me have this one last time! Please! I beg you, say something. You can't understand? It's okay. I hope that in your heart, I will always be unique. Please don't forget me..."
He showed no emotion in response.
If you were to ask Him whether Lilith, there would probably be no Answer.
Ultimately, He did not believe He would fall in love with any other woman, so-called a goddess.
Even so, if there's anything that could repay Anat, it would probably be to silence her cries of agony.
After all, it was his fault; he should have killed her completely back then.
"Your brain still doesn't work that well."
Kill me.
Suddenly, Lilith whispered these words to Him.
It was a kind of almost self-destructive impulse, destructive yet intense and tangible plea...
After becoming human, Lilith felt that although she could not see the 'direction of humanity' like the original Canaan Gods, she had many more unknown emotions and thoughts.
For example, right now, even though I know I am so powerless, even though I loathe my own insignificance, why do tears still flow uncontrollably? Where does this come from?
