Chapter 284 - Nice Boat (1)

"Uhh... Mm. Well..."

Oh Kang-Woo slightly moved away from Han Seol-Ah's arms and made a troubled expression.

It was true that he wanted to see her become jealous, but he wanted to see her become jealous cutely, not while emitting an aura that seemed to belong to a horror film.

'What's going on?'

He tilted his head in confusion at how different Seol-Ah was from usual.

"Who... did that to you?" Seol-Ah asked again while smiling. Although she was smiling, there was still a chilling bloodlust in her eyes.

Kang-Woo smiled awkwardly and said it was a joke.

"What?"

"I was just in a good mood, so I just thought of playing a prank. The plan went really well, you see."

"Aaah, I-I see."

Seol-Ah's eyes returned to normal. She put her hands on her red cheeks while mumbling, "Oh, my."n./OVelb1n

Kang-Woo sighed softly when he saw she'd returned to her usual self.

"So, uhm... What about the plan?"

"Hmm? It worked. We won't have any trouble with the angels anymore."

"No, not that." Seol-Ah shook her head and then said, "You told me that you would tell me more about yourself, Kang-Woo. I want to hear more in detail about the plan that you talked about as well."

"..."

Kang-Woo remained tight-lipped. Come to think of it, he did indeed remember telling her that after showing her his true self.

"..."

There was a heavy silence, and hesitation appeared in Kang-Woo's eyes.

Only Lilith and Balrog knew the true self hidden behind his facade. Even for Kang-Woo, no, because he was Kang-Woo, it was difficult to reveal the truth. Although not as much as Kim Si-Hun, Seol-Ah also thought of Kang-Woo as a hero who did his best for the safety of this world.

'And...'

There were also a few things that she couldn’t know, such as the fact that he had turned Si-Hun into his Familiar, that he had killed Alec Osborne and Reynald, and that he was actually the Demon of Prophecy.

'But then there's nothing for me to say.'

He grabbed his hair. After going through all that he had done after coming to Earth, they were nothing but things that he couldn't tell Seol-Ah.

'Oh, fuck.'

Regret belatedly swept over him for all the atrocities that he had committed.

"Uhh... you see..."

Kang-Woo averted Seol-Ah's gaze.

Her eyes narrowed, and she extended her hands and grabbed Kang-Woo's.

"You said... you would tell me everything."

She was emitting a weird aura that made it difficult to deny her.

"Ngh," Kang-Woo sighed.

"..."

To be honest, he was scared about how she would react when she came face to face with the true self behind his facade.

"I don't expect you to tell me everything at once, Kang-Woo. Even though I would like that... I can tell from your face how hard that is for you."

Smiling bitterly, Seol-Ah pulled Kang-Woo's hands. Kang-Woo walked to the couch as she pulled and sat down with her.

"So, explain to me this incident, at the very least. It's related to me, after all."

"..."

Kang-Woo closed his eyes.

'But this incident is no joke either.'

Raphael's screams still lingered in his ears. Leaving aside his excuse that there was nothing he could've done about it, what he had done this time had been cruel, even by his standards.

"Is that... also too hard?"

Seol-Ah teared up.

Kang-Woo felt that the light was starting to disappear from her face. He grabbed his forehead.

'Shit.'

There was no other choice. It was obvious that such a thing would happen from the moment he killed Shalgiel in front of her.

"No, it's okay. I'll explain it to you."

"Ah...!"

Seol-Ah's expression brightened.

"Okay... I explained to you before that Seraph's soul lies within you, right?"

Kang-Woo stammered as if he had been smacked in the back of the head with a hammer.

It was true that he mentioned the kiss with Uriel because he wanted his relationship with Seol-Ah to advance, but he had awakened something demonic in Seol-Ah instead.

"How was that, Kang-Woo?"

"H-Hm?"

"It was far better than... that Uriel angel, right?"

"It's not even worth a compari—"

"It was better... right?"

"Of course."

He nodded.

Seol-Ah smiled in satisfaction and rested his head on her two massive peaks.

An inexplicably soft sensation wrapped around Kang-Woo.

"You're tired, aren't you?" Seol-Ah asked.

"H-Huh?"

"Just a minute. I'll make you some kimchi stew."

Seol-Ah let him go and went to the kitchen.

Kang-Woo looked at her with a blank expression.

'I mean... I'm glad that she accepted me even after hearing that, but...'

Forget accepting, she was about to devour him.

Kang-Woo watched Seol-Ah with a blank expression.

'Lilith...?'

Yes, he felt as if he were looking at Lilith.

Kang-Woo shook his head.

'Nah, there's no way.'

He knew very well how kind and delicate a woman Seol-Ah was. She was also under the influence of the Goddess of Parental Love, Seraph, so there was no way that she would, like Lilith, show an obsession close to madness.

'She probably became confused after hearing something so shocking.'

Kang-Woo nodded and got up. Forgetting everything else, his priority was kimchi stew. If he ate Seol-Ah's kimchi stew, all of his confused emotions were bound to disappear.

Tap.

"I made a lot."

"Thanks."

Kang-Woo gulped while looking at the kimchi stew in a pot as large as a wash basin.

Slide.

Instead of sitting across from him, Seol-Ah sat next to him.

"Hm?"

Kang-Woo tilted his head.

"I just wanted to take a closer look. Seeing you eat makes me feel happy, Kang-Woo."

"Really?"

Kang-Woo paid it no mind and gulped down the kimchi stew.

It might have been because he had not taken any rest after the incident with Shalgiel, but the kimchi stew that he was having after a long time was extremely delicious.

"Good boy."

Seol-Ah patted Kang-Woo while he was eating the entire pot of kimchi stew and gave him a beautiful smile.

That night, with the excuse that she was worried about his chest wound, she asked to sleep next to him. She kindly patted his hair and back while holding his head.

Although his body didn't need to sleep, he started to feel sleepy for some reason.

Swoosh.

As he closed his eyes, he saw a beautiful sunset in the sky and heard waves in the distance. He saw Seol-Ah, who was lying in a white boat, hugging his head.

[Finally... it's just the two of us, Kang-Woo.]

Her voice echoed throughout his mind like an illusion.

'What in the world?'

Kang-Woo tilted his head.

It was surely a beautiful dream, and he should be smiling with joy, but...

For some reason...

He felt chills run down his spine.
