Chapter 947: Worst of them all
Karyk felt frustrated at his weakness. He had never felt this ashamed of his own strength. He needed this creature\'s help to even get on top of it? "I must find a solution to it at any cost."
With the Whale coming out of the water, Karyk felt like he was standing atop a giant mountain. The vast expanse of the ocean stretched out before him. One could truly marvel at the beauty of the sea. "Are you ready?"
"I am."
"Then I will get moving. Don\'t fall."
The Whale slowly started moving. As if being considerate to Karyk, it did not enter the water completely. "Will your mother be coming to the surface to talk to me? Because I can\'t talk inside the water."
"Do not worry. Mother also doesn\'t like anyone entering her home. So even if you wanted, she wouldn\'t want you there. She will come to the surface."
"That is good."
Karyk sat on the back of the Whale as the creature increased its speed. The sea winds whipped through his hair, occasionally making it harder for him to keep his eyes open. "Do you know why the so-called Children of God come to this world? What is so special about this place?"
"I\'m not sure. I never talked to them. But Mother hates them a lot. That\'s why I never could have mentioned to her that I saved you. Or I would be hated."
"Is there a reason she hates them?"
"I don\'t know. She never tells me such things. But Uncle Drike says that it\'s because they are bad people. So he also warned me to stay away from them."
"If everyone warned you to stay away from them, why did you not listen to them? Why did you save me?"
"Because you looked like you needed help. You were going to die."
"Can Children of Heaven die?"
"I haven\'t come across anyone, so how would I know? I just didn\'t want to have anyone die while I simply watched."
"You are good. But it\'s often the good ones that die early. I am grateful to you, but if your mother hates the Children of Heaven, she must have a good reason. What if you had saved one and they killed you?"
"This..."
The Whale truly appeared to be stunned, as if it did not think about that at all. "If I saved them, they would not kill me, right? They wouldn\'t be so ungrateful."
"How would you know that?"
"Because no one in the Ocean is that Ungrateful. Everyone is so nice and helpful."
"The world is much bigger than you can imagine. There are people who kill without thinking. There are also many who have the blood of millions on their hands."
"Are you also one of them?" The Whale asked. Karyk looked at his hands. He knew he was not a good person. In his battles, so many innocent people had died. Even in Elzeira, it was his fight that led to the destruction of that world. How many innocent people died that time? He could not even count. So many people that worked for him died as well. "I am probably the worst of them all." He knew he couldn\'t be counted as a good person. No, he was a calamity. But he did not regret it at all. Whenever he looked back at his actions, he had a calm smile on his face. After all this time, things appeared to have settled down. Gabriel was now back in their universe, probably taking care of Zena just like he asked. With him in this world, he was certain that the Archangels would have thought of him as dead as well. They wouldn\'t think that he survived the implosion of a universe. For now, things had settled. Even if he was to die in this world, he did not regret it. Because his family was living. But still, he wanted to leave this world. Now that he was considered dead, he could return and live his life with his family. Either that, or he could never see them again to not put them at risk. He could instead find a way to kill the Archangels once and for all. However, that also appeared unlikely at this moment. He had a hard time dealing with one Archangel, how could he handle more? He was still very weak. There were so many things he wanted to do. He wanted to enter the Land of Archangels to find out his past. He wanted to know what relationship he had with them. Why were they after him? Why was he abandoned as a child?
With him considered dead, he thought he could have an easier time if he was to enter that place stealthily. In any case, he had to leave this place first. Only then could he do anything that he wanted. "You don\'t look like a bad person." The Whale stated. "Do you have any idea what a bad person will look like?"
"Why didn\'t you kill me if you are a bad person?"
"Because I am a different kind of bad person. As long as no harm befalls my family, I don\'t want to hurt anyone."
"Isn\'t that a good person then? If someone tries to harm my family, I would also kill them, even if it\'s a million or more."
Karyk could only smile in response.
