Xingyue, is Xiaokai also considered Kai?

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 at the door, sighed, then pushed the door open, walked to the bathtub, and turned on the faucet.

He naturally sensed Metatron's presence the moment he arrived at the Kuonji residence, and after questioning Eri and Arisu, 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 dazed, she rested her cheek against the edge of the bathtub, glanced at Novia for a while, 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 Ashera along, right? Why can't I? You can hit me hard if you want!"

If I could, I would wish this moment could last forever, even if only for a moment.

Ah, so I guess I must be 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 heart pounding loudly.

"I want it, I want it........."

Therefore, she spoke these words in one breath without stopping:

"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 so that I can create an invisibility barrier when I'm at home, making me completely invisible to others—"

"Holy Throne!?"

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 red tea and then controlled the throne 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 lazy Metatron was so angry that he called out to the one he used to fear so much. Seeing her lying on the ground with her eyes half-closed, Novia picked up a flashlight and shone it on her. Metatron protested loudly:

"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 this place, everyone in the mansion would drown."

"Oh?"

Although the combination of sloth and their time together had lessened Metatron's fear of Novia, she still shrank back like a turtle being poked with a stick when Novia glanced at her, appearing timid and hesitant.

"By the way, Lord, are you hungry?"

I can cook for myself—Novia didn't answer because she simply couldn't keep up with Metatron's lazy 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 See 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, it's just for quickness and it's so cheap. Making anything else would be too much trouble. Cooking is really... too much trouble."

"Also, do angels 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. 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!"

After saying that, Metatron took control of the Holy See and returned to his cramped 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 Heavenly Secretary has become so slothful, 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 See, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the Holy Throne looks alright, it doesn't suit Novia's aesthetic. It was originally intended for Tiamat, but because Tiamat is still a juvenile, it will take a lot of time to improve the planet's ecology, so she won't be back for a while.

In retrospect, the culprit behind the fr world was the Canaanite god-king who was determined to seize the Old Testament in order to take 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' Shekina, the queen of the gods in the Old Testament.

Now that Novia has remembered the past, he is utterly speechless at this cheap superstar.

Literally speaking, as a superstar, 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 myth of the angel who 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 normal for the humans at the time to mistakenly believe that she was a goddess who belonged to him.

Seeing Novia's reaction, Anast realized that she loved humankind more than 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 and love me, WY (Ve) (Asia)."

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 do you mean?"

Novia turned around and faced Lilith, whose eyes were full of 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 wants 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 and made a series of grinding sounds.

“I don’t regret it. If I did, 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 perfect human being, created through your hand. Everything about God on me has been spread across the land. I am so weak, so frail, so—"

"you think too much."

He refuted him briefly, while simultaneously 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 almost in 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.

Ah, I must have loved you deeply 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 disappeared.

"Ahhhh!"

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, angry or weeping?

As if tearing their own souls apart, their hearts revealed an unfathomable despair.

Her profound and heavy emotions, driving people to the brink of madness, spread throughout the Garden of Eden.

"You're just teasing me, aren't you? 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 into the eyes of 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 gods of the past died the moment they met eyes.

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 He loved Lilith, there would probably be no answer.

Ultimately, He did not believe He would fall in love with any other woman, so-called God.

Even so, if there is anything that can repay Anat, it is probably only by silencing her cries.

After all, it was his fault; he should have killed her completely back then.

"Your brain is still not working properly."

"Just kill me."

Suddenly, Lilith whispered these words to Him.

It was a desperate, almost self-destructive impulse, a destructive yet intense and tangible plea...

After becoming human, Lilith felt that although she could not see the 'direction of humanity' like the original Canaanite gods, she had many more unknown emotions and thoughts.

For example, right now, even though I know I am so powerless, even though I hate myself for being so insignificant, why do tears still keep flowing? Where does this come from?
