The Baby Who Raised the Devil

Spreading Rumors (10)

[God saw a hungry shepherd brother wandering in the desert. Although various fruits are placed on thin branches for siblings to enjoy, siblings do nothing but hug their stomachs.]

'Why don't you eat the fruit I brought you?'

'The winter fruit belongs to the crow.'

'Does keeping your promise outweigh the possibility of losing your life?'

'What is the difference between humans and animals if they do not keep their promises?'

The starving brother was taken by the gods.

Siblings gain a deeper understanding and know about the true nature of the world alongside each other.

God bestows the power of each brother to share what they have learned with others.

His brother gave fresh water and bread to those in need and performed healing miracles for those who were sick.

The shepherd brother, endowed with wisdom and holy power, is highly revered by man. The offerings were now shared between Gods and brothers; separate shelters were also built for them.

Siblings shared the teachings of Gods across the world for a long time.

However, one of his brothers, the man, became confused at some point.

Why do gods love humans equally? What is the explanation of the difference in character and wisdom if man is to be equated?

When the God rebuked the man who only used his power for those who gave good respect and deep devotion, the man asked, saying,

'What is the use of Gods, perfect beings who share the world with humans?'

'How can there be a difference between Gods and humans, who share the same world?'

'Isn't human belief necessary for the existence of Gods?'

It was not long before humans came to worship men who were physically closer to them than Gods.

The man's shelter was also filled with wheat, barley, meat, vegetables, and all kinds of precious items of gold and silver, while the abandoned temple was flooded with spider webs.

The man realized that his strength was only a part of the Gods, so he asked.

'Although the teachings of the God have been preached for a long time, the war does not stop, and the rich continue to persecute the poor to feed themselves.'

'Why are Gods, who are absolute beings, unable to control humans who are nothing more than beings?'

'If kindness and love save the world according to the teachings of the Gods, why does God not give mercy and love only to humans?'

'When Gods created humans, why did it give them greed, which always prevailed in the face of kindness and love?'

At the end of the question, the man realized.

The reason why the world was in such chaos was because Gods were not perfect beings.

As a result, the man made a decision.

'A world full of greed needs a perfect God.'

He wanted to build a world where the rich did not oppress the poor.

Many children do not have to die before their parents die.

So they do not have to roam the desert on an empty stomach.

So no one will see their sister crying because they are hungry all the time.

So, the man called out to the God by his real name.

The man confronts the Gods by preying on human greed.

The 72 pioneers were divided into two groups, each of which worshipped a God or a human.

The pioneers who followed the Gods were called angels, while the rest were called demons.

[The defeated god, trapped the 72 pioneers in the pillar with his last breath, until the day when the descendants of the Gods opened a new chapter in the war.]

[It was written in a forgotten note.]

***

As I closed the book that Storas had given me, sparks instantly covered the book. I stared at the ashes on the floor for a moment before turning to face Storas.

"So the man is now referred to as the God Neliard, while the Creator is referred to as the Evil God?"

"……Yes. The ancient nation was destroyed as a result of the war between the two Gods, and as a result the records of the Gods were lost. The same goes for the pioneering record. So, humans just refer to us as demons and angels.”

“You must be a demon under Lord Neliard, why are you showing me these records? Are you insisting on taking revenge on Meria? So it's okay for you to disappear after your retaliation? What would you do if Lord Neliard scolded you?”

"God Neliard can't destroy me."

"How can you?"

“Although Lord Neliard won, he suffered severe injuries. He had to use most of his strength to seal the destroyed Creator.”

"That means he can't interfere in the human world carelessly."

"You're smart, man."

My mind is jumbled in my head.

The god that mankind believed in and followed was once a human who had taken over the place of the true Creator.

The god Neliard was created from human desire.

'God created by desire. He was supposed to be an actual Evil God.'

When Isaac realized my disbelief, he called me "Bocil .." and grabbed my shoulder.

I grabbed my forehead and turned to face my father.

“If this book is true, I am an Evil God who has the power to summon demons..... No, I am a descendant of the Creator, and Mina is a descendant of the God Neliard.”.

“…….”

“Neliard's goal is to be the perfect God....”.

I was shocked when I realized what I was thinking.

“What it means, the sealing ritual when I was sacrificed....”.

Henry continued because I couldn't finish my sentence.

"It's not a sealing ritual."

“What do you mean, brother?”

Johann, who was quietly listening to the conversation between Henry and Isaac, said,

“It was a ritual for Neliard to become the perfect God.”

Isaac's face hardened.

“So the first ritual failed? It failed because the Evil God had even woken up? ”

I put my eyebrows together and touched the base of my nose.

'What's wrong with the first ritual?'

Everything had been carefully planned, and Mina, the descendant of the God Neliard, presided over the ceremony, which was held on the day of the eclipse as ordered by the oracle …

'But why…'

I opened my eyes wide when I realized.

"Because my power is sealed!"

"What?"

"Huh?"

Henry and Isaac both turned their heads towards me.

"Then……."

“Yes, it may not be the power of the Evil God that made me retreat several times to the past.”

"What?"

“Because the ritual failed, Neliard needs me again.”

Henry and Johann exchanged a cold glance.

Then Henry said,

“If I were an Evil God, I would let Leblaine die. Only then can Neliard's plan only be thwarted.”

All puzzle pieces have been collected.

To this day, I have been a pawn in God Neliard's plan from beginning to end.

“When I regressed several times into the past, it was not a gift for me. I came back to life only to be sacrificed again and again..

The Evil God was defeated by Lord Neliard once. Hence the Evil God is powerless to protect me.

Everything that happened in my life and all my efforts were in vain; all for the benefit of Lord Neliard . The priest is right.

“You, Leblaine, are the embodiment of evil in this world. You are the child of destruction. ”

He's correct.

Even the fact that I am still alive is a major crisis in this world.

I had a life that should not have been saved in the first place.

I am a criminal who will lead the world to destruction.

"That's me."

"Well…"

My mind is racing in my head. As I slowly sat on the sofa, Johann hurriedly grabbed me.

“Leblaine.”

“…….”

"Sister."

A deafening silence settled in the room.

My family just stood there looking at me, whose face was shrinking and her lips were shaking.

“I am nothing more than a pig raised to eat.....!”.

“…….”

“Why should I be like this! I just want to live, I just want to be happy.....!!”.

“…….”

"Why ...... Huwai!"

I must die to make Neliard the perfect god.

The world will be at peace when I am no longer alive. Only then will my family and my people be saved.

I have no choice but to die …

“A-not that I also want to become the descendant of the Evil God! Huwaa..

Isaac reached out his hand and called out my name, but I brushed off his hand and ran away from the room.

“Leblaine!”

"Female sister!"

I could hear my brothers' voices from a distance.

"Leave her alone."

Also, my father's low voice.

***

I sobbed as I sank into a small cave in the garden.

I can't go on living.

After learning all about the Evil God, no, the Creator and the Neliard God, I concluded that the two people I had seen in my previous dreams were, in fact, the Creator and the Neliard God.

“Poor child. You are still on a terrifying mission. I've prepared a path for you.”

That's the God Neliard.

"return. Your family...... Child, please......!”.

That is the Creator.

'What does Neliard call him?'

“Serga!”

Yeah, it's Serga.

I sniffed as I recalled the shabbily dressed God who had stood in front of me before.

'But why? The Creator wanted me dead, didn't he?'

Why is my life like this…?

My eyes were filled with tears as I continued to be sad, and my nose turned red.

I was actually expecting a little bit about my origins.

Maybe the Evil God is actually right, and the Neliard God is evil, so I might be the true God child.

My life will be precious at that time.

I wish that I could bring happiness to my family and my people.

'If everyone knew about this, many would want to kill me. I'll put my family in danger.'

I sobbed as I buried my face in my lap, and after a while, I fell asleep.

But…

[Son.]

A voice came into my ear.

When I turned around, I realized that I was no longer in the small cave I was in.

Instead, a 17-year-old boy sat next to me.

[How can you sleep like that?]

[Who.].

[Are you still sleeping? Wakes up. Serga.]

[No, who are you.].

My head was hit by a boy, whose hands were on his waist.

[Neliard. I'm your brother.]

Whahuh?

I looked at the boy who was smiling at me and opened my eyes.
