Everyone Else is a Returnee - Chapter SS25

Fallen - 4

The chance was gone. He noticed it from the very moment he hit that monster bastard.

‘Can't I kill it?'

The monster was really cunning. He possessed infinite mana, stamina, and power and could never be killed unless he lost his prestige. So he had all the thoughts to bring Michael and take away his power.

After taking away his power, they would not be able to kill him this time because of his power. His power contained everything he had, and his body was just a shell.

'This bastard, did he know we’re going to rebel and be prepared for it?'

He stared at the one fellow in the group who has the ability of foresight. Soon, that guy recalled and confessed the fact that he couldn't hide it from his colleagues. That said, God didn't believe them in the first place. Likewise, he didn't believe in God from the beginning. They were similar.

Like father, like son.

‘What the hell? Like father, like son. Damn it!’

What kind of father would use his sons as much as he wanted and then erased all the world, including his sons, to create a new world?

He didn't like it from the start. He was wrong because he was tricked into thinking that it might be a fair deal to exchange his light for that damn God's record so he could become stronger.

He thought about it calmly, and admitted it later. He wasn't deceived at that time, but only pretended not to know by being tempted by the 'fast path.' Of course, if he could go back to that moment, he wouldn't have rejected his offer.

'If I did that, he would have killed me and robbed the record. He just deceived us into making it easier.'

So he promised to kill that monster somehow.

He managed to meet a trustworthy guy, a guy he could use, a guy to share the responsibility, and finally, it was the turn to cut off his neck.

'It was frustrating. I want to loosen these shackles, but in the end..,

Did it mean he could only be released by death?

He calculated quickly and then gave up.

Convinced that they could only slay the throat of God only when they died, they took the monster's power from Michael to prepare for the future. Thereby, all his wings were colored with perfect black light.

Lucifer, the personification of light, was born again as Satan.

After defeating the monster, Satan moved quickly. Actually, he had been preparing little by little in case of a mistake before that.

He wanted to become independent and make his own forces, so he corrupted the angels and created an army of black-feathered wings. He used them to keep Heaven in check and exert power.

One day, a person who had not shared the power of God would appear and reach the realm of transcendence with his powers. With all his might, 'he' would make a stage where he could kill Gods, and Satan himself will be destroyed, along with all those who bear the traces of God.

Only when he is freed would someone be able to bring death to God!

But before gathering all of the other angels, he called out only one angel and spoke to her in advance.

"I'll die. I'm not kidding. I will lead everyone who follows me to death. Raziel, I'm only telling you, especially... if you don't want to die, drop it out."

"But haven't you made up your mind to give your own life to achieve what you want?" asked Raziel, a woman with straight hair. She stared at Satan with deep, mysterious eyes.

Satan was a little nervous and nodded.

"Right. But that has nothing to do with you."

"It does. I first stepped into Heaven because I saw your radiant light," Raziel calmly spoke.

"It is you, not God, who saved me and led me. Do you remember? It was you who shed light on my dark world for the first time and made me be able to read."

"Yes, I know. For the first time, I revealed my insides to you, but now I am not trying to talk about that."

"Aren't you going to be unable to set up an organization without me, anyway?"

As Raziel said this, Satan could not refute it. Certainly, he had no confidence in effectively handling the powers of the God he had robbed without Raziel, the holder of the recording skill.

Unlike the God who had reached transcendence alone, he robbed, analyzed, twisted, and transcended his powers, and his records were lacking here and there. She was the holder of the record that could fill the gap.

"I will share your destiny, my Lord Satan," the dark-haired woman laughed seductively, saying so.

"Everyone else will be fooled by you. But I know everything and will be with you. If we two fall together, hell will not be lonely again."

"You talk as if I’m feeling guilty for cheating others?"

"If you hadn’t felt guilty, you wouldn't have had to say this to me."

"Hah! I said it before, but I’m only telling you. I don’t feel guilty to other guys!"

’Especially to Michael and Gabriel.’

They had a great sin of foolishly playing with God, even though they had greater potential than him. He would surely pull them together, heading for death.

Whether or not she knew Satan’s resolve, Raziel just laid down her eyes with a subtle blush on her cheeks.

"As expected, you are cunning, my Lord Satan."

"What do you mean?"

"Fufufu, nevermind. Then let's start. It will take a lot of effort in the future to make your world flourish like this Heaven."

"Yeah. If you're going to die with me, follow me. We will walk a bloody path that neither loved ones nor descendants can make."

"I've already got everything I want, so I’m just happy to follow you."

"Yes."

They each knew what the other was thinking, but they fled calmly without asking each other anything more.

On that day, countless black feathers stretched out, and Michael, the new representative of Heaven, saw the fugitive off in anger.

Would it have been possible to ask Michael for cooperation if he had confessed his thoughts?

Was there a way to get things a little easier?

No, it couldn’t be. Every time Satan suggested such an idea, he praised his choice and laughed at the foolish angel.

It was a deep night that reminded him of the distant past. The wedding of Lucifer and Raziel was held in the sky garden at night. The twisted-minded man deliberately chose this night, and his bride - as always - followed his will.

"Everyone, today has finally come. It is a truly momentous day."

The man's voice, deliberately low, resonated gently in the wedding hall.

From one side, a woman's voice burst out, cheering. Soon after, another woman stopped her.

"Because it is the day when Lucifer, the guardian of discord, affair, divorce, gambling, and fraud, who did not believe in the existence of pure love, who never ceased to curse all the time, is going to marry!"

"Shit, damn it. The two of us were trying to finish it quietly..."

Well, of course, it was Yoo ll-han who was holding the microphone. It might be a natural consequence when remembering that Lucifer had been shamelessly grabbing the microphone and screaming at Yoo ll-han's wedding.

"Does this man really have a conscience?! Today, the person who made such a bad talk about others' marriage tried to bounce cowardly when it came to his turn. I pity the good-hearted bride who will lovingly accept even such a being of poor conscience ."

"Y-you..."

"I want to stop the bride even now, but originally, love is more than a state that can not be broken even with divine magic. It is interesting to note that the first scammers in humanity who declared that love is a deception will do well in marriage."

"Open your mouth as much as you want..."

Somehow, Satan tried to quietly hold a wedding to avoid Yoo ll-han, but the news leaked out. Yoo ll-han, who was waiting for this moment, prepared himself for Lucifer’s wedding as magnificently as he could.

As a result, Dragon Spirit, whose name was known quite a bit in the middle of the night, occupied one seat at the ceremony. Today's wedding was even being broadcasted in real-time to all locations in the current daytime!

"Fufufu... If we do this, everyone will know that we are getting married, Lord Lucifer."

"Why do you look happy?"

"Yes, of course. This is what every woman wants—a magnificent wedding."

Looking at his new bride in a dazzlingly beautiful wedding dress and grinning softly, Lucifer finally came up with reasonable doubts.

Could it have been this woman who informed Yoo ll-han that they were getting married?

No way, it was not like Raziel, who always followed his will. It wouldn't have been.

"Then, here it is. Let’s take a moment to watch a video of the groom’s past activities, he who will be married today!"

"What video!? Wait, Hey!"

A huge screen appeared, and the vividly moving figure of Lucifer appeared in it. The one who recorded the video moved right next to Lucifer, and it was his own wife.

"Everyone who does not close their eyes in front of me will be blinded. Curse your stupidity, and grope in the dark."

"Destiny? It's something I've been against earlier. If you're going to discuss fate in front of me, first show me the spirit of turning the sky upside down!"

"I was once the most brilliant, so I know when it was the darkest. How about you? Do you know the darkness?"

"I am Satan. I am the one who bears all evil! Hypocrite pigeons, cry freely!"

"It's killing God. Would it be right for me to pay without letting go of my body?"

"Silly mortals. The end is right before your eyes."

"Kaaaarrrggggh!"

As the screen went fast, the lines that Lucifer had spoken in the past were played. It must have been the best thing to say at that moment, but why was it so cringe-worthy?

Lucifer grappled and turned to the bride next to him; she was the only one who could observe and record him so close!

After all, she was the one who told Yoo ll-han!

"Fufu, Lord Lucifer. You're so cool. Aaah."

But she was really into Lucifer in the video!

Then, she really thought everyone in the world who saw Lucifer's words and actions in the video would say that he was cool, so she provided that material!

Even Yoo ll-han, who played the data, was murmuring in amazement.

"How can you say this line without twisting your tongue once?"

"Cancel it! I'll school those who are trying to imitate me clumsily. I am the original one!"

At Lucifer’s rebuttal, Yoo ll-han's eye glistened.

"I see! Then, from now on, we will hold the original cringe Lucifer's wedding with his wife Raziel!"

"Yoo ll-han, you bastard, I'm not!"

"Lord Yoo ll-han directly blesses the bright future of the two, who were willing to deceive everyone to destroy the foolish, false creator. Their crooked affection will continue to be a strong force to support this world in the future."

When Lucifer somehow tried to get him out, Yoo ll-han's words became the power which embraced Lucifer and Raziel. He couldn't even get angry like this!

At that time, Lucifer tried to accept the blessings, even though he was trying to conquer.

"I sincerely pray for the eternal happiness of the two families who willingly entrusted their fate to me. From now on, Baptism will be held, an infinite match which tests the groom's determination to protect the bride!"

"Deathmatch?"

Some people appeared in the middle of the hall at the end of his words, showing ferocious spirit.

They were Yoo ll-han's brides.

"Lucifer, you've been overly shy."

"I heard that you bought a world with the money you earned from 'Picking the Next Bride of Lord Yoo ll-han!'"

"Fuhuhuhu. Let me test how much my fascination can undermine Satan's mental defenses."

"The magic team has already been installed."

"Because the space is tied, you won’t be able to escape."

Lucifer thought that if he did this wrong, he would have a real reflection. But even at times like this, there was someone who wanted to share his karma, his new bride, Raziel. She rolled up the hem of her dress and stuck it to her side.

"We'll get it together, Lord Lucifer."

"Is it the premise to get right?"

"If not, would it not hurt less because Lord Yoo ll-han blessed us?"

"That’s why that asshole blessed us."

They would hit him very badly, but he wouldn’t die, though!

Lucifer grunted, but Raziel was smiling brightly.

"Leave it to me, and I'll finish it, so stay back."

He was afraid that she would get hurt, and he tried to push her, but Raziel held on.

"No. Didn't I tell you a long time ago? I'll be with you, whatever your fate is."

"You did."

"Fufufu, contrary to what you said at that time, you married a loved one, and soon you will have a child."

"Yeah, unlike Gabriel, I don't seem to have any talent in prophecy."

Lucifer finally laughed it off.

Satan's wedding ended so loudly that it did not match his name, but he now felt that this was not bad either.
