Chapter 308 - The Moon Goes Down

'Calm down for now. Don't get too excited.'

Oh Kang-Woo gripped his trembling chest and took deep breaths. It was a historical moment that took ten millennia to arrive. He had honestly hoped to enjoy the opportunity in a more romantic atmosphere, but such idiotic thoughts had long since gone out the window now that the opportunity was actually in front of him.

An intense heat spread through him.

'Seol-Ah.'

He looked over at Han Seol-Ah, who was eyeing him with a mad gleam in her eyes. He felt like she would devour him if he did nothing, but he couldn't let that happen.

'The goal above all else is to stop Seol-Ah's fall.'

He had no dirty intention of taking advantage of the situation to go to the moon with her.

'Yeah, this is just CPR.'

It was nothing more than medical treatment to stop Seol-Ah's fall from grace. He had no choice but to do it. He was planning on taking a very wholesome stance, just like a doctor saving their patient or a devotee praying to their god. N0v3lTr0ve served as the original host for this chapter's release on N0v3l--B1n.

"Did something good happen, Kang-Woo?" Seol-Ah asked.

"Huh? Ah, mm."

His mouth seemed to have curled up without him even realizing it. He coughed while averting his gaze from Seol-Ah. The gears in his head turned in overdrive.

'I can't act rashly right away.'

Everything had a course that needed to be taken. He couldn't just dive straight into it.

'First, I'll satiate Seol-Ah's desires with sweet words.'

Now that Kang-Woo knew that her body was closer to that of an angel and that the target of her obsession was him, it was not hard to guess what her desires were.

'Just like with Uriel...'

No, it was actually easier than with Uriel, since his obsession over affection had not developed enough to make him fall from grace.

Kang-Woo slowly opened his mouth, "Seol-Ah."

"Yes, Kang-Woo?"

"You've been lonely since I haven't been able to spend much time with you lately, right?" he said in a warm voice.

Seol-Ah nodded and hugged his head.

"Yes... I was so, so lonely. But there's no need to worry anymore. After all, there is no way... that will ever happen again."

Seol-Ah smiled widely and embraced Kang-Woo with her twelve wings flickering black.

"From now until the end of time... we'll always be together," she whispered sweetly.

Kang-Woo nodded calmly. "Yeah, let's be together forever."

"A-Aaaahh!" Seol-Ah trembled. She then exclaimed in ecstasy, "So you wanted that too!"

Kang-Woo lifted his arms wrapped in chains and asked, "Sorry, but could you undo these?"

"Th-That's..."

"I want to touch you, Seol-Ah."

"I'll undo them right away.'

Clunk.

His arms were freed from the chains. Kang-Woo caressed Seol-Ah's back.

"Hehehe," she smiled.

Although it was only a little, he noticed that the flickering had slowed down.

'Okay.'

His actions were proven to be effective. If so... he pulled Seol-Ah toward him and kissed her. Although his kiss wasn't as intense as hers, it was still intense enough for their emotions to be properly delivered to each other. Seol-Ah's wings were flapping in delight.

"Seol-Ah."

"Y-Yes, Kang-Woo?"

"What did you hear from Uriel?"

"..." Seol-Ah's expression crumpled when she heard the name. She said in a voice filled with bloodlust, "He said that... I can't make you happy... because I can't protect you."

She bit her lip. "Isn't that ridiculous? He talked as if he were your lover when your lover is m-me. Don't you agree, Kang-Woo?"

Seol-Ah stared at him in madness.

"Yeah. That brat was out of line. He knows nothing about our relationship," Kang-Woo said without hesitation.

He understood what Uriel had meant, but he couldn't defend Uriel at the moment—he had to take Seol-Ah's side no matter what.

"Th-That's right! A kid who doesn't know anything about our relationship said that!" Seol-Ah's expression brightened, and she nodded furiously.

She had made a complete 180 in an instant, but it didn't matter.

Kang-Woo smiled and continued. "But I do feel it's my responsibility that I drove you to the point that you had thought that way. I think I'll have to... show you trust."

"No, this is all that b-brat's fault. You haven't done anything wr—"

"No, it's my mistake. I should've told you this earlier to make sure you can trust me fully."

"Pardon? What... do you mean?" Seol-Ah asked.

Kang-Woo put his hand into his pocket. A tiny bit of darkness separated from the Key of the Demonic Sea on his right middle finger. A white ring was made in the blink of an eye, with the name 'Han Seol-Ah' engraved in black writing on it.

"I've actually prepared this a month ago... but I haven't been able to find the right time to hand it to you."

"... What?"

He took out the white ring and extended it toward Seol-Ah.

"Seol-Ah," He unveiled the trump card that would allow him to fully reverse the situation. "Let's get married."

"...!"

Rumble!

An ungodly wave of power shook everything around them. Seol-Ah stuttered, her face turning a concerning shade of red.

"Wh-Wha—Huh? M-Married? Huh?"

Kang-Woo smiled, thinking that it had worked.

'But that's not enough.'

Just words alone would not be able to stop her fall from grace.

'Now, rather than talking with words...!'

It was time to talk with their bodies. He had to melt away the distrust and madness dirtying her heart with his body heat.

"Let's go, let's go, let's go!! I'm so ready to go this time!'

He had waited far too long and had desired this moment far too much.

Finally... finally... after ten millennia... no, for the first time in his life...

'It's different from what I did with Lilith!'

It was far too painful to consider being attacked by a tentacle monster spewing pus as experience.

'No tentacles! Two eyes! No pus! Phenomenal!'

Kang-Woo slowly reached out to her while suppressing his tears as much as he could. Just then...

"Sniff, sniff..."

Along with Seol-Ah's tears...

[The energy of Skyfall is weakening!]

[The fall will soon be canceled!]

'Huh?'

What the fuck?

"Kang-Woo...!"

But they haven't done it yet.

"Y-Yes...! I-I'd love to!"

Wait just a goddamn minute. This ain't it, chief. Why are you doing this? We still haven't talked with our bodies yet, Seol-Ah. This isn't something that can just be resolved with words.

'N-No.'

Kang-Woo reached out in desperation. Something was going terribly wrong.

'It can't succeed already... we've only just talked!'

They still haven't gone to the moon!

'Fall! Fall again! Not like thiiiiiis!'

[The Seed of Corruption is disappearing!]

'Fuuuuuuuuuuck!!! Nooooooooo!'

"Let's"—tears dripped down Seol-Ah's cheeks—"get married."

"Ah..." Kang-Woo looked at her twelve wings as they reverted to their usual white color, and... cried.

[You have successfully prevented the fall!]

'No... Not this... I didn't want this.'

Kang-Woo and Seol-Ah cried while hugging each other until the moon went down... and the sun came up.
