Chapter 398: It Was A Lie After All“You…!” Proserpine glared at Han Seol-Ah while biting her lip. She did not expect Seol-Ah to follow her all the way here. “I guess you just left Gaia’s incarnation to die, huh?”
Proserpine had managed to escape after unleashing the Demon God’s Deific Essence and greatly injuring Gaia’s incarnation. If Seol-Ah had just left the incarnation to chere, it meant that Gaia’s incarnation would not survive.
“No,” Seol-Ah smirked and shook her head. “I’ve already given Layla first aid so that she wouldn’t die.”
‘In that short of a time?’
Proserpine bit her lip right as she was about to say that out loud.
‘It’s possible for Seraph.’
Although the human did not seem to be able to use Seraph’s power to its full extent, first aid would be simple even if she were able to use a portion of it. Proserpine panted heavily while grasping her wound. The injury that she had inflicted on Gaia’s incarnation was quite large. If the human had only administered first aid…
“Gaia’s incarnation must be writhing in pain right now,” Proserpine remarked.
“No need to worry. Lilith is taking good care of her. And…” Seol-Ah’s eyes lit up crazily. “I’m sure Layla will understand. It’s for the sake of killing a Constellation of Evil of all demons, after all.”
Seol-Ah approached Proserpine while humming.
Proserpine chuckled as her hand that was grasping her injury trembled. “Hah. Do you seriously think you can kill me?”
Celestial Goddess Seraph had a fatal weakness. She possessed powerful buffs that could make an ordinary farmer into the greatest warrior, and healing magic so powerful that it seemed as if she could bring the dead back to life. No, she actually could revive the dead with the magic spell Resurrection if she were to use the entirety of her power. However, her abilities were so specialized toward buffing and healing that her combat prowess was laughably bad.
‘In other words, she can’t do anything on her own.’
Proserpine stared at Seol-Ah with narrowed eyes. Although she was in terrible condition, she wouldn’t lose to a woman akin to a scarecrow with no combat ability.
“I’ll make you regret your arrogance of coming here by yourself!” Proserpine shouted as she extended her arm.
Black tentacles shot toward Seol-Ah’s neck, but…
Grip.
Seol-Ah easily caught the tentacles aiming for her neck. She twisted the tentacles and pulled them with all her might.
“Kyaaaaaahhh!” Proserpine screamed. “Wh-What?”
Proserpine stared at Seol-Ah incomprehensibly. If the human had inherited Seraph’s soul, her combat ability should have been terrible.
“You dared to covet Kang-Woo…”
Seol-Ah looked down at the tentacles in her hand with disgust. Her wings continued to flicker black.
Rumble.
Darkness poured out from the wings and filled the surroundings along with a thunderous sound.
“... With these filthy tentacles.”
Thousands of black feathers shot at Proserpine.
“Kyaaaaaahhh!” Proserpine screamed while scrunching up.
Thousands of feathers poured on Proserpine like a machine gun, tearing her skin and severing her tentacles.
“Haaa, haaa,” Proserpine opened her eyes while panting heavily after the storm of feathers died down. Fortunately, she was not greatly injured.
‘N-No.’
It was not fortunate. It meant one thing if she was only lightly injured after allowing herself to be attacked while completely defenseless.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt‘She… avoided my vitals on purpose.’
Chills ran down Proserpine’s spine. She was overcwith fear as Seol-Ah looked down at her chillingly.
“I’ll make it so that… you can never even think about laying a hand on Kang-Woo,” Seol-Ah muttered as she slowly walked toward Proserpine.
Proserpine flinched. She gulped while trembling.
‘Wh-What should I do?’
She might have had a chance if she was in perfect form, but she was currently suffering from the side effects of unleashing the Demon God’s Deific Essence, so there was no way for her to face that insane human right now. Not only that, but she did not even have the strength to run anymore.
“Ngh…” Proserpine bit her lip.
She needed to think of a way out of this situation.
‘Cto think of it, she seemed to be madly obsessed with that monster.’
Her obsession was abnormally high, exactly like the men that had been charmed by Proserpine. She did not have to think very hard about why that was.
‘If she possesses Seraph’s soul…’
Proserpine knew about angels being driven by their obsessions. This female human’s obsession was likely the monster himself. If that was the case, her crazy obsession was understandable since there was no way that a mere human would be able to control an angel’s instincts, let alone Seraph’s.
‘Shit, I sure have stirred up the hornet’s nest.’
Proserpine frowned aggressively. It was unavoidable since there was no way for her to have known that Seraph’s soul dwelled within that human.
‘But I still have a card to play.’
Proserpine’s eyes lit up. If that human was unable to handle the instincts of an angel, she would just use it against her.
“Hmm, you won’t letlay a hand on him, you say?” asked Proserpine while smiling seductively.
Seol-Ah casually nodded as she walked toward her. “Yes. I won’t let you lay a hand on him.”
“Ho… Hohohohoho!!” Proserpine burst into laughter while covering her mouth with one hand and staring at Seol-Ah as if she were unable to contain her joy.
“What’s so funny?” Seol-Ah glared at the laughing Proserpine.
Proserpine twisted her body bewitchingly and answered, “I mean~ I just thought it might be a bit too late for that.”
Deathly silence fell.
Seol-Ah asked while her eyes lit up crazily, “What do you… mean by that?”
“Hohohoho!” Proserpine burst into laughter again. She licked her lips with her snakelike tongue and asked, “You haven’t been sleeping with darling lately, have you?”
Seol-Ah remained silent.
Kang-Woo had been away for the past few days, so they had not been able to spend the night together.
“Man, what a shame. You would’ve been able to see his disappointed face if you did.”
“What?” Seol-Ah narrowed her eyes sharply. Kang-Woo being disappointed? Her heart beat strongly after hearing Proserpine’s words that were implying something. “What are you… talking about?”
“I wonder what I’m talking about?” Proserpine giggled leisurely.
Boom!
Seol-Ah spread out her twelve wings and shot toward Proserpine, violently grabbing her by the hair.
“Kyaah!”
“I asked you what you were talking about.”
“W-Wait! Th-That hurts! Letgo and then we’ll talk!”
“Tellnow.” Seol-Ah looked down at Proserpine terrifyingly.
Proserpine was smiling despite screaming. “It seems darling hasn’t told you. Well, I doubt he had the heart to.”
“A few days ago… Darling cto me.”
“Kang-Woo… went to see you?”
Proserpine replied leisurely, “Yeah. I left my traces on my clone back then.”
She had never done such a thing, but now was not the tto sweat the small stuff.
“Then…”
Seol-Ah’s expression froze. She knew that Kang-Woo had headed to Sant’Angelo after following the trace left behind by Proserpine. However, what if Kang-Woo went somewhere else before heading to Sant’Angelo?
“Don’t… lie,” Seol-Ah said ferociously as she clenched Proserpine’s hair harder.
“Hohoho! Why do you think it’s a lie?”
“There’s no way Kang-Woo would do such a thing.”
“Why? Aren’t all men the same?”
“Kang-Woo is different.”
“No, he’s the same,” Proserpine replied while shaking her head firmly. She continued craftily, “His relationship status seemed to be all over the place, too. I’m sure he did it with that Lilith bitch. His relationship with that red hair seemed suspicious too.”
“Lilith is different.”
Lilith had spent a thousand years with Kang-Woo. She had given Seol-Ah all sorts of advice on how to advance her relationship with Kang-Woo, and they had even promised together that they would stay by Kang-Woo’s side forever. Seol-Ah could never be jealous of Lilith of all people. After all, the one who had cbetween Kang-Woo and Lilith had been her; she had stolen Kang-Woo from Lilith, who had been devoted to Kang-Woo for the last thousand years.
“The first tis always the hardest. It gets easier the more you do it, wouldn’t you agree?” Proserpine asked suggestively.
Seol-Ah clenched her fists. Proserpine was not wrong, but…
“There’s no way… Kang-Woo would do such a thing.”
Seol-Ah’s strength left her hands.
“Fufu,” Proserpine smiled widely as she widened the distance between them. She caressed her stomach and continued, “Then who was it that enteredthat night?”
Proserpine continued while giggling, “Do you know what darling said tothat night? He said that no one had ever made him feel that good. You can’t blhim. I wouldn’t be known as the Constellation of Lust if I was the sas other women.” She burst out lustful energy and licked her lips seductively. “He talked about you too. He said that you were no fun because you’re so inexperienced.”
“Wh-What?”
Seol-Ah’s eyes widened and flinched as if Proserpine had hit the mark. She did indeed have no experience with anyone other than Kang-Woo.
“Hohoho! You do look like you’d be bad at it.” Proserpine mocked her and sighed in relief in her mind at the stime.
‘I knew she’d be bad at it.’
She was not the Constellation of Lust for nothing. She could tell just from the way Seol-Ah smelled that she was inexperienced. Seol-Ah was trembling in shock.
‘Hoho, it seems to have worked.’
She could tell that her plan had succeeded.
‘Once I hammer the nail in the coffin…’
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThat human’s obsession would turn into fury, and then…
‘She’ll use that fury to go tear the monster’s groin apart.’
One would normally doubt what they had been told, but that human was not in a normal condition at all.
‘I doubt she can even think properly.’
People often believed even the craziest of things if their desire reached the breaking point. It could often be seen in impulsive gamblers who did incomprehensible things. The scould be said for obsession; once one’s obsession reached its breaking point and turned into madness, one would barely have any leeway to make logical thoughts.
“Th-That’s enough of your lies!”
As Proserpine had expected, Seol-Ah shouted in madness while clenching her hair. Proserpine smiled widely.
“Fufu. It’s been a while since I had that much fun as well.” She slowly placed her hand on her stomach. “Oh, and…” She giggled as she caressed her stomach. “I think… I’m pregnant.”
“What… did you say?”
“Fufu. I’m pregnant.” Proserpine looked down at her stomach lovingly. “With my darling’s… precious child.”
Seol-Ah’s eyes widened. She was shocked to the point that blood vessels had protruded all over her body. Proserpine looked down victoriously at the despaired Seol-Ah.
‘Alright, now—’
“Liar,” Seol-Ah said chillingly.
The atmosphere completely changed.
“H-Huh?” Proserpine looked at Seol-Ah perplexedly.
She had a feeling that something had gone wrong.
“Liar…”
The light in Seol-Ah’s eyes completely disappeared. Her eyes as dark as the abyss were staring right at Proserpine.
“Liar… Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar. Liar.”
“Wh-What the…” Proserpine got goosebumps.
The human’s mad obsession had not changed into fury; it had simply amplified into even greater madness.
“W-Wait! C-Calm down! It was just a prank—”
Proserpine instinctively tried to get away, but…
Crack.
“Ack!!”
Seol-Ah flew toward Proserpine at the speed of light and got on top of her. She moved her arms without hesitation as her wings flickering black fluttered.
Crunch! Crunch! Crunch—!!
“Kyaaaaahhh!!” Proserpine screamed horrendously.
Seol-Ah tore Proserpine apart alive, and…
“Heh. Just as I thought, it was a lie after all.”
She looked down at the crevice she had made with her bloodied hands.
She muttered, “There’s… nobody inside.”
Seol-Ah giggled brightly.
