Jimin screamed as loud as she can, but Do-hyuk gave no response. Not because he ignored her, but because he had to turn around to grab a 'certain thing' from his desk. Do-hyuk was able to face Jimin after he got the object on his hands. He tried speaking up, but it was already too late. Even if they were to speak, nothing would have changed.
Spark.
A burst of light flared bright, and Do-hyuk disappeared from the room.
"A… Ah…" Jimin lost the calm demeanor she had been showing Do-hyuk up until now, and covered her mouth with her bare hands. "I couldn't' protect him, prot…"
She thought she could have another chance in life. She believed she could be by Do-hyuk's side as an ally instead of a burden. She was so lost, she couldn't keep her confusion from herself. The development of the situation that is going on now is in contradiction with the future which she knew.
After moments of wallowing in her own self-loathing, Jimin raised her head. "… he cannot die." He was Yoo Do-hyuk. He was the man who stood at the top of the world before time had reversed. . "He will survive, no matter what."
There must be something that she can do other than crying 'like an idiot'. She needed to train harder to give more strength to Do-hyuk, who will live through this and stand by her side again. With a determined expression, Jimin clenched her lips shut. Then, she focused her attention towards the angel's voice which rang from within her head.
…
The burning burst of light ceased, Do-hyuk felt the chilling air before he opened his eyes."…Ah…" A small ache puncture through his head. Do-hyuk was 'relocated' outside of his room. It wasn't difficult figuring out where he was. It was a busy street which Do-hyuk visited countless times in the past. However, it has been a month since he last visited this area.
One of the black towers stood right in the middle of the road. The said tower stood 20 meters away from Do-hyuk, looking down at his puny size. The six-winged angel, whom Do-hyuk saw from a far within the confines of his room, hovered over the tower.
He was at least 7-8 meters tall. The angel watched Do-hyuk's every movement. In fact, he wasn't the only one the winged giant is watching.
"What?!"
"What is happening…?"
It wasn't only Do-hyuk who was 'relocated' to the street near the black tower. Even from Do-hyuk's perspective, hundreds of people were bustling around figuring out what had happened to them. Right as he was gazing through the strangers' faces, Do-hyuk used the 'object he grabbed from his room'. It was a disposable dust mask. Most of the people he knew owned one of these for a while due to the severe fine dust. Do-hyuk was no different. He would be able to hide his face with this. 'Everyone on the street…' has taken someone else's life. If what Jimin said is true, a person was born with only one Nature, and anyone can obtain a second one after murdering someone.
The voice which echoed from within his head announced he will isolate all who owns two Natures. That means everyone here must have killed at least one person.
"But I haven't killed anyone." An obvious fact that Do-hyuk knows better than anyone else.
Then why…
A frivolous laugh resounded through the air. Do-hyuk raised his head towards the sky. Numerous angels draped in lights appeared three to four meters above the air and began looking down the crowd.
"Are these the heinous creatures?"
"They all have innocent faces."
The figures possessed the form of an angels but something seemed off about them. First of all, their sizes were different from the enormous angel floating from the above tower, they were a bit larger than humans but not gigantic. They had one wing on their back instead of a pair, and the features of their faces as well as their limbs looked unbalanced as if they weren't a completed figure.
The creatures were spread a few meters away from each other while they talked loud among one another.
"You better listened to what the almighty angel had told you carefully. Consider yourselves lucky you inbreds! Your kind received the grace of the Lord Casita and earned a chance to evolve to higher beings."
Unlike the voice he heard from his room, the voice wasn't coming from his head but through their mouths. Even the way they talk was far different from the soft one he heard earlier, theirs sounded cheap and distasteful.
"From now on, your world will collide with other realms for all eternity to train you stronger than your own kind. Death alone awaits those who can't adapt fast enough." After those words, the single winged angels halted to a pause. They looked at each other in dismay.
"They're not freaking out."
"I can't even see fear in their eyes."
They were right. In a 'normal' situation, humans would be petrified in their own fear and wouldn't function properly no matter what the angels said. But this is not normal situation. They were surprised not because of what they said but because of the sudden relocation. As soon as the angels appeared in the air, everyone calmed down and stared at the angels.
It was as if they knew this will stop something bad happening to them.
"There should've been a few of them going crazy now…"
"Right, it is fun to destroy them to serve as an example."
The angels shrugged in disappointment.
"Oh well."
"Here, get this."
Newer words appeared before Do-hyuk's eyes.
