Chapter 9 - Day 9
Day 9
A-Agent!
Are you alright!
An attack!
The voices of numerous villains who rushed in from all directions echoed everywhere.
However, the eyes of these gathered villains were suddenly filled with bewilderment.
Their master.
The Agent, one of the most vicious, worst, and strongest villains reigning at the pinnacle of Illuminate, was showing an expression of joy in front of a girl they had never seen before.
Hot tears were streaming down his eyes, and the Agent eventually bowed his head towards the girl and spoke in a very reverent voice.
“Thank you for restoring my name, Heavenly Maiden.”
Heavenly Maiden!
The moment that word sprang from the Agent’s mouth, the gathered villains widened their eyes.
What was the Heavenly Maiden?
Wasn’t she the being that not only their master, the Agent, but all nine villains who founded Illuminate were searching for with burning eyes?
However, they didn’t know why the Agent, and furthermore, the nine villains of Illuminate were searching for this being called the Heavenly Maiden… among various other names.
They were just searching on their master’s orders.
But, is that girl the Heavenly Maiden?
The one with such an innocent expression and eyes…?
Meanwhile, Cheon Seoa opened her mouth, looking at the Agent who was still crying tears of joy.
“That’s right. Your name was Hante Gebria.”
“Yes, it is.”
Hante Gebria.
The name he had lost while training in the Nine Yin Nine Demon Scripture in the past.
The agent, hearing that name again which had been erased even from his own memories, nodded and replied.
Indeed. It was a name he hadn’t heard in a very long time.
To hear his own name from the lips of the Heavenly Lady.
Could there be any greater honor than this?
However, joy and honor are just that – joy and honor.
For now.
“Then, I shall escort you home, Heavenly Lady.”
It was now time to take the Heavenly Lady to her real ‘home’.
* * *
“How is it? Does it suit your taste?”
In a luxurious room attached to an equally luxurious mansion.
Seated in that room, munching on desserts, Cheon Seoa was addressed by Hante Gebria.
The agent opened his mouth with a gentle smile.
“It’s fine.”
Cheon Seoa nodded while continuously munching on numerous desserts.
It had been a long time since she had eaten Earth’s desserts.
Or more precisely, it had been a long time since she had eaten such ‘sweet desserts’.
It had been about a hundred thousand years since she created Daemacheon and secluded herself there.
During that long period, Cheon Seoa hadn’t eaten anything.
She didn’t need to eat anything in the first place, and moreover, Cheon Seoa herself had no talent for cooking.
Well….
‘There weren’t any ingredients to cook with in the Great Mana Sky itself.’
While that might not be the case for the Great Luo Sky, the Great Mana Sky newly created by Cheon Seoa for magic technique practitioners is a new sky that has only existed for a hundred thousand years.
Furthermore, since Cheon Seoa was the only living being in the Great Mana Sky itself, the concept of cooking something didn’t exist in the Great Mana Sky.
Meanwhile, the Agent watched with a satisfied expression as Cheon Seoa, like a hamster, nibbled with her small mouth and endlessly inhaled desserts.
Seeing Cheon Seoa enjoying what he had prepared made him feel truly proud.
By the way.
‘When on earth are these guys coming?’
The Agent muttered to himself.
It had already been 30 minutes since he contacted them saying he had found the Heavenly Lady, but there was no sign of the others arriving.
No, even if not the others, ‘Hyeolrangje’, who was stationed closest to his hideout, should have arrived by now.
What on earth were they doing to be so late in coming to see the Heavenly Lady?
Well….
‘I’m satisfied that I get to see the Heavenly Lady’s cute appearance all by myself, though.’
“Hm? Do you have something to say?”
“No, Heavenly Lady.”
Cheon Seoa, who was munching on macarons, tilted her head and asked the Agent who was staring at her.
The Agent shook his head again with a gentle smile.
And so, as Cheon Seoa was munching and inhaling numerous desserts.
And the Agent was watching her with a gentle smile, finding her cute.
Bang!
“Where is Lady Rakuru!”
Someone burst through the doors of the mansion.
It was a being that looked like a half-mix between a human and a wolf.
At a glance, it was a creature that resembled a ‘werewolf’, something that might be dismissed as an urban legend.
“Tsk, as expected from a beast, not a shred of manners to be found.”
The proxy frowned and clicked his tongue.
On the surface, he seemed to be expressing dissatisfaction with the rude behavior of the blood wolf, a werewolf with blood-red fur. In reality, it was a complaint about the end of his private time with the Heavenly Lady.
Meanwhile, the werewolf who had barged into the mansion, the blood wolf, started sniffing around as soon as he finished shouting.
The ‘small help’ that Cheon Seoa had given him was the Blood Wolf Body Technique.
If mastered, it was a magical training method that would transform the body into a human-blood wolf hybrid, surpassing human limits. It was one of the body cultivation techniques.
As he sniffed around, the blood wolf soon caught Cheon Seoa’s scent.
“Lady Rakuru!”
Rakuru.
The name of an ancient evil god passed down in the jungle where the blood wolf’s former tribe was located.
Shouting that name, the blood wolf once again burst through the door of the room where Cheon Seoa was.
“Ah! Lady Rakuru! It’s been! It’s been so long!”
As soon as he saw Cheon Seoa, who was munching on cake with her mouth and looking at him with innocent eyes, the blood wolf, like the proxy before him, began to shed tears.
How could he forget Rakuru!
How could he forget Rakuru, who not only saved him when he was on the brink of death but also gave him the power to punish those who dared to betray him!
And so, just as the blood wolf was about to rush towards Cheon Seoa, expressing his intense joy…
Bang!
A massive pressure pours down on the head of Hyeollangje as he leaps across the air.
His body is not only slammed into the floor but also falls through it, crashing into the underground.
Simultaneously.
“Tsk tsk, what rudeness is this towards the Heavenly Demon?”
Another man revealed himself in the room.
He was wearing a robe that a monk might wear, and as he appeared, he bowed his head towards Cheon Seoa with his palms together.
“This humble one greets the Heavenly Demon.”
“Ah! You’re that poor child I gave the Mara Great Hand Technique to.”
“That’s right, Heavenly Demon.”
The representative is Cheonnyeo.
Hyeollangje is Rakuru.
The monk who calls himself ‘this humble one’ is Mara Monk to the Heavenly Demon.
Starting with these three people, they founded the Illuminati. Furthermore, all nine of those known to the world as the most vicious, worst, and strongest villains gathered.
The middle-aged gentleman called the Heart Eater who received the Soul-Devouring Great Force Technique from Cheon Seoa.
The samurai woman called the Sword Demon who received the Carbon-Destroying Dragon Sword Technique from Cheon Seoa.
The elderly man called the Blood Master who received the Blood Absorption Technique from Cheon Seoa.
The young man called the Digester who received the Three Eyes Three Disasters Technique from Cheon Seoa.
The woman called Asura who received the Six Faces Nine Tails Technique from Cheon Seoa.
Finally, the man who received the Seven Desires Demon God Technique and the Seven Desires Sword from Cheon Seoa, the Seven Sword Emperor.
They all use different, non-unified terms to refer to Cheon Seoa.
Cheon Seoa, feeling somewhat complicated by this, opened her mouth.
“From now on, please just call me Cheon Seoa.”
“Understood! Rakuru-sama!”
“Huh, have you become a beast not only in body but also in mind? Despite the Heavenly Demon asking to be called Cheon Seoa, you dare to utter such a frivolous word.”
“Huh? Does the fallen monk want to die?”
Kugugu-.
Hyeolrangje and Maraseung glared at each other, raising their auras.
From Hyeolrangje’s entire body, a blood-red energy gushed out in streams.
From Maraseung’s entire body, a heavy yet violent black energy erupted.
As their auras intertwined, the massive mansion shook, terrifying the subordinates of the host, the Agent.
At that moment.
“Everyone here is a poor child who has suffered wounds, big and small. Please don’t fight among yourselves, poor children.”
Whoosh-.
As a gentle breeze from somewhere swept through the room, the auras that Hyeolrangje and Maraseung had been raising instantly disappeared.
Not only Hyeolrangje and Maraseung, who had been raising their auras, but also everyone who had been silently watching were surprised.
Who were they, after all?
If one dared to mention, weren’t they beings at the pinnacle among the numerous superhumans spread across the current Earth?
Of course, they knew that the power they used was fundamentally different from the concept of superhumans called heroes or villains in the world, yet that power was more than enough to be called the strongest.
To subdue the auras of Hyeolrangje and Maraseung in an instant was astonishing.
However, they soon realized that the one who performed such a miracle was ‘God’ Cheon Seoa, whom they had been searching for, and their expressions quickly turned to understanding.
Simultaneously.
We apologize, Miss Cheon Seoa.
All nine bowed their heads towards Cheon Seoa and exclaimed.
If other heroes had seen this sight, they would have been shocked.
The nine villains had never bowed their heads to anyone before, yet here they were, bowing to an innocent girl who looked to be only 15 or 16 years old.
For those unaware of the inside story between Cheon Seoa and them, it was undeniable that this scene would appear extremely bizarre.
Meanwhile, Cheon Seoa, who seemed somewhat uncomfortable with their apology….
“Ah, but Han…”
“Please call me Representative, Miss Cheon… I mean, Miss Cheon Seoa.”
“Oh, should I?”
“Yes. Of course, being called by name by Miss Cheon Seoa is an infinite honor, but…”
The Representative trailed off, glancing around subtly.
In the Representative’s eyes, the other eight villains were all glaring at him with fierce looks.
Their gazes held the complaint, ‘Why are you the only one Miss Cheon Seoa calls by name!’ and the Representative had made an unavoidable compromise.
Of course.
‘I should ask her to call me by name when we’re alone.’
While the Representative was making this mental note, Cheon Seoa spoke with a vacant expression.
“I wonder if there are any desserts left?”
In front of Cheon Seoa as she said this, dozens of empty plates were scattered about.
