newborn?
A new beginning for me?
The Lord of Holy Light tried to get up, but couldn't sit up at all, and could only continue lying down to listen to the man continue speaking:
"Everything about your god no longer exists, and the current rules do not allow it, so... the conditions for an existence called the [Lord of Holy Light] no longer exist in this world."
"In that case, you shall continue to live as Cecilia."
Me... Cecilia?
Blinking repeatedly, she finally realized what state she was in.
The divine part of himself has vanished completely; all that remains in the world is this soul, which includes his memories.
And now, this soul also exists in the body that was once human.
"Don't rush to reply to me, you have plenty of time to think."
Gently stroking Cecilia's long, pure white hair, Ning Feng softly said:
"But I want to tell you something... I hope you can live."
Lord of Holy Light: !
Ning Feng's expression remained unchanged as he continued speaking:
"I can't save everyone."
"Even gods must be destroyed."
"This is the only way to the end; there is no other solution."
"So, I killed you."
To achieve victory, the Lord of Holy Light is an obstacle that must be overcome; only by killing her can the next steps of the plan proceed.
Therefore, mortals killed the sun.
As her panic subsided, she lay on the ground, looking at the man who had confessed to killing her.
Sure enough, after a pause, he continued:
"But... none of this means I won't save the people I want to save within my power."
"My family, my comrades, my fellow soldiers... This is my selfish wish; I don't want them to face the most tragic end."
Ning Feng stopped moving his hand, lowered his head, and gazed into her eyes.
"And you are someone I want to save."
The Lord of Light remained silent.
“At first, I only wanted to save Cecilia’s other half, but that wasn’t out of kindness. I wanted her to absorb you and make you her main body.”
To devour and assimilate the most powerful deity.
He didn't hide his past thoughts, but he paused for a moment before continuing:
"But later, I discovered... that you yourself deserved to live."
"Not as Cecilia's other half, but as a god, you too should live."
Since the Dark Ages, the Lord of Light has lived up to his divine name.
Although she did not save all mortals, she merely created a peaceful small area within a small region, seemingly doing nothing at all.
But in truth, her mere existence was enough to intimidate; she made the gods suppress their wildest thoughts, preventing the war from truly escalating to an irreversible point.
A being willing to give up everything for mortals, a noble being truly worthy of the name of a god.
She deserves that qualification.
She can live.
"No one's sacrifice is necessary, nor should there be any necessary sacrifices in this world."
"The war between God and man is over, and the gods have come to an end."
So, live on.
With a long sigh, Ning Feng leaned back and lay down next to the Lord of Holy Light, gazing at the sky with her.
"The world no longer needs someone as the Lord of Holy Light, but I do need a friend."
"Whether as an angel or a human."
“Death is nothing more than a despicable means of escaping responsibility. Even if it is to atone for your sins, you will use the rest of your life to make amends for the mistakes you have made.”
"Let the last survivor pay for the mistakes that all the gods committed together."
This is an unreasonable shackle imposed on her.
Finally, Ning Feng suddenly laughed, turned his head, and said with a strange emphasis:
"Or perhaps, you could choose to live for me?"
Blinking, the Lord of Holy Light was somewhat puzzled as to what this man was trying to keep in suspense.
"You deceived me badly before, you have to apologize properly."
The Lord of Holy Light blinked repeatedly, sensing something in his teasing.
Live on.
Even if I am covered in wounds, even if I have nothing left, even if I have made irreparable mistakes.
Live on.
Live on, and then pay the price.
This is atonement, or perhaps self-redemption.
"The only god left in the world, live on."
Hahaha……
She heard laughter coming from afar.
It was the shouts of those mortals who had received divine blessings, celebrating their new life.
"Whoosh..."
This time, she heard it more clearly.
That was her own laughter.
Laughter suddenly came from his mouth, a light and carefree laugh.
Are you happy for them?
Or is it a gamble on its own survival?
...None of that matters anymore.
She simply survived, that's all.
As the only survivor of the age of gods.
Ning Feng looked at her expression, then smiled and said:
"So, it's settled then?"
"……Um."
Since he's said that, let's try to live on.
Once she had made up her mind, she suddenly felt her body become very heavy.
"Go to sleep and experience real sleep."
This held an unimaginable attraction for the gods who never slept.
