I was surprised, "...Huh? You are relying...on me? But I don't even know about him, and nor I have any context...and do you really believe that I will be able to do that?"
King looked at me with a strange smile and replied, "Do you know...you are really strange, completely like someone to whom we think we know, but the fact is we will never know you." But it wasn't the answer of mine, but Yuzui and Goddess of Beauty smiled with a sweat and nodded their heads, they also agreed. Yuzui looked down and said, "It's so true...sometimes he is so strange, and when we think that we know him, at the same time he will show us how much less we even know him. That's Ichiro...that's him..." And Goddess of Beauty also nodded her head again.
I looked at the King seriously, I wanted my answer and the King and the soldier smiled with a sweat and looked down, they were afraid of his eyes now and the King sighed and said, "Like this only... sorry for not answering you till now, so listen...I really think that you will be able to do something with it, so I am relying on you...I don't know whether it's a good choice or not, but I think you can. And about the guy, I don't know much about him...but, he was just a teacher, a person like you who will respect but will also care about his own respect and would never bow down, and for that...he was just imprisoned and my spy informed me that he is going to be executed soon, and I am blaming myself if he dies...so I am relying on you, I can't help, but I think...you can."
Yuzui and Goddess of Beauty were now confused, looking down...the King would have never saw how strong I am, but still he believes that I will be able to save and kidnap someone from the prison and he is actually relying on me for that...but why? He doesn't knows me but I know him. But I couldn't understand his this part, it was strange and was completely different from normal humans or maybe...there's something...maybe, he just wants me to be hunted.
I looked down and thought...and I was sure now, he wants to bet me, he wants to kill me for sure but I don't know why. But I didn't say anything, stood and started leaving and said, "I am not capable for that, sir. You are expecting from the wrong person, I can't do that, I will be dead for sure if I tried, and you shouldn't tell these things to random strangers, it's dangerous for you...who knows you get betrayed by that, so you shouldn't do that...and I will now take my leave, thanks for calling and talking to me." And I left.
The soldier was surprised but the King smiled while looking down...and suddenly a creepy smile came on his face and he mumbled, "So it's confirmed...that it's not you, God of Death and Destruction."
But Goddess of Beauty and Yuzui were surprised by my words, they all stood, Yuzui hold asleep Eve on her shoulders and started running to me and we four started moving somewhere, they wanted to ask about a lot of things from me but I didn't want them to know right now, I wanted the shore, and Time wasn't with us there as well so it was better to remain silent for now.
The night came, Eve was still sleeping and I had prepared the dinner and Goddess of Beauty and Yuzui were sitting on their seats, confused. Goddess of Beauty looked at the bedroom and with surprises said, "Isn't Eve sleeping from too long now? She fell asleep hours ago and she's still sleeping."
Yuzui looked at Goddess of Beauty and said, "Maybe she wouldn't have slept whole night because of the excitement of the Academy? And we will wake her up right now, once Ichiro is done with preparing the dinner--"
"No, Eve wouldn't come today for dinner." I said and came with the bowl full of meals and four plates and didn't stop in front of the dinning table and just moved ahead and started moving to the door and everyone was surprised. They didn't understand me but I opened the door and looked at them and said, "We are going to have dinner at the shore, I also want to talk with Time and show you all something."
They were still confused, but they all stood and started walking away with a sigh.
"You really are strange, Ichiro..."
The sky was dark and looking beautiful with the silence, Goddess of Beauty and Yuzui were eating calmly, but they all smiled with a sweat and looked at me, confused that why am I eating with a hurry. But I actually had no time, I really don't think I will be able to have it after a few minutes so it's better to have it before I stop and I can't.
"Ichiro, eat calmly...you have enough time." Even Time said while watching and I had the last bite, chewed it and my dinner was done and I stood and said, "No, I can't eat after this."
Yuzui, Goddess of Beauty and Time didn't understand, but they saw me trying to clean my own lips by arms and stood properly, they didn't understand that...but suddenly Time got an idea and he also stood properly and said, "Then you should tell already, did you already know the time when she would be coming?" And I smiled and nodded my head...but Goddess of Beauty and Yuzui were still confused--
But suddenly Eve came walking, standing between Goddess of Beauty and Yuzui...and they were left shocked, they didn't feel her arrival. Eve sat between them with a smile and said, "And, Goddess of Beauty, how are you doing? You are still as pretty as you ever were, to be honest, I really loved you."
And Time and I smiled with a sweat, that compliment was never given to us...we were sad.
Goddess of Beauty remembered what I said...but she couldn't accept that, "No way...it can't be you... you and Ichiro are still acting of being someone else but you are different person, who are you both?"
And Time and I smiled with a sweat, "Oh wow...so you are really going to know after being beaten and regretting from her? Well, it will be fun."
Eve looked at me and said, "I won't hurt her, you both were trouble, but she never was. You both used to run away from work and leave all on me but Beauty did her job very well, I still love the five worlds I handed her and I still believe that it would be beautiful even if I haven't saw it."
And Goddess of Beauty was left with widened eyes, Time and I smiled with a sweat, but Yuzui was still confused and not understanding the situation.
Beauty dropped a tear...and she asked, "...Give me...my gift..."
Now Time, Yuzui and I were confused, what's that now, but Eve smiled and she just snapped her fingers, flowers grew everywhere, a white moon came on the sky, fireflies which have never existed in this world came, the lake became the mirror of the moon, and everything became beautiful. Time and I were confused...but Goddess of Beauty finally smiled with tears in her eyes, and she hugged Eve and said, "It's really been a long time...our lord."
It was a secret kept just between God of Everything and Beauty, when Beauty was born by the magic of God of Everything, she looked just like a normal person...
"I was like her child, her own daughter...I wasn't Beauty till that time, she had given me all the permissions to do anything, whatever I want...and then, one day, a thing came in my mind and I asked for a gift...then she gave me the power to make this, which doesn't needs God of Creation's permissions, and I was myself a creator then." Goddess of Beauty told and Time and I were becoming angry, then she never cared about us as her own son and she only had a daughter?! But yes, Time and I could remember that Beauty was grown with her only, and somehow she became Goddess later.
"I had the power to give birth to flowers, moon, and beautiful things except humans, I wasn't allowed for that except in my five worlds...which have been destroyed now. And I had the blessing of her, that the things I created, I had the control of their death and birth, and the top three couldn't do anything about it." Goddess of Beauty continued telling, Yuzui was surprised while Time and I were becoming a little bit angry. "But then, I also became a God, I learned from God of Time, and Death and Destruction that time and death actually gives the value to life, and I also added in mine. So there was a big role of you both as well."
But still we both were angry, Goddess of Beauty looked at me and laughed, "You all are jealous that she treated me as special, it's unfair for you all? That's funny."
Eve was just watching them, smiling and she finally looked at Yuzui and with a smile said, "And...you are a Devil, who worked with Ichiro...but I am really surprised that you both would fell in love with each other." I blushed and Yuzui started sweating, she tried to stand but Eve didn't let her and said, "You sit, you are also like my own child like Beauty is. And do you know what...when everything will end, I may make you the next God of Death and Destruction."
And everyone was shocked except me.
"Huh?!!!"
Eve looked at the sky at the bright moon and smiled and said, "Yes, and Time, you will also get a break and I will assign Emi as the God of Time for your vacations. You both are working from a very long time, once everything is over, you both should take rest."
And everyone was surprised, but Time and I had no problem with it, I was already ready for that from the beginning anyways.
"Yuki may become your assistant, Yuzui, and Nobela and his disciples will also get work, but only if you would be comfortable with it, that's what I am thinking right now." And Yuzui and Beauty were surprised...but they smiled and looked down.
But Time had a question now, "But now how we will first end this?"
And Eve picked up the fourth plate and took the meals and started having it and said, "That I haven't planned yet, but someone in us would have already planned." And everyone was confused, who?
"Anyways," Eve finally came on the main topic and said, "You all have someone to save, I am really disappointed that Nobela was his student but he didn't recognize them, but listen...what King had said, you will have to do it with also bringing his sister as well here."
And everyone was more shocked, but I think...I knew it. I looked down and nodded my head, "Right, but...Yuzui, especially you, don't stay close to the King...he's not the King you know, but he is possessed by someone, we have to eliminate King, but without me, and also save them."
And everyone was surprised, looking at me but Eve smiled while looking down and said, "You are smart, Ichiro...that's right. We will have to keep King unaware of Ichiro's real identity's presence or we will have to eliminate him, about that also, Ichiro would have a plan."
But they didn't understand..."Why?"
And I looked at Yuzui and answered, "He is...possessed by..."
