Chapter 2059

No, it was a bit different.

What Agnus had seen in his notification window was simply the mention of a complete ending. The world hadn’t been mentioned at all in Agnus’ message.

“...What?”

Grid was curious. A chill went down his spine. Beyond the storm of Annihilation energy, a new gray pillar was rising just after the ash pillar symbolizing the death of the Refractive Dragon had ascended to the sky.

“Rebecca?”

Grid hurriedly retrieved his Annihilation energy, but it was too late. The purple storm lifted and revealed Rebecca, who was severely injured. She looked just like Hanul, another God of the beginning, just before he died.

Grid hurriedly used Shunpo to support Rebecca. “Why didn’t you avoid it?” he asked. It almost sounded like he was rebuking her.

Rebecca was the Goddess of Light. Grid’s attack speed certainly was incredibly high with his Agility maxed out, but that was only high enough to block the Refractive Dragon’s route. Rebecca had enough time to run away before the fourteen thousand swords unleashed the Annihilation energy, but she didn’t...

Rebecca managed to speak as Grid held her in his arms. She was using her real voice, not intent. “As long as I am alive... You will always be anxious about my existence.”

It seemed like she didn’t want to let the world know about her death. She was worried there would be a crack in the peace that Grid had worked so hard to achieve.

“......”

Grid couldn’t even deny it. It was true that he had tried to kill Rebecca on several occasions. She was an Absolute god who knew that this world was just a game. She needed to be thoroughly interrogated if he wanted to keep her alive. No matter how much Grid tried to make sure that she wouldn’t go berserk, he might not be able to shake off his anxiety and end up harming her.

“I... In the name of protecting the world, I have destroyed it many times. I constantly betrayed and killed those who trusted and relied on me.”

Every time Rebecca spoke, a brilliant divinity flowed like blood. Her soul, which resembled light, was being torn apart and dispersed.

“I am a sinner who shouldn’t be understood or forgiven.”

Rebecca was clearly dying. Her golden eyes, which looked like condensed light, lost their luster.

“When you were by my side and I was saved, the guilt I felt was indescribable.”

There wasn’t the slightest bit of exaggeration when she used the word ‘saved.’ Rebecca’s repeated rampage and subsequent judgment of being a bug was due to how lonely she was. Everyone except for her believed that the world was real and was faithful to keep on living, so she had always been alone. She couldn’t rely on anyone.

Of course, she tried. She told the truth to Yatan and Hanul, who had been born alongside her at the beginning, and sought their cooperation. However, they didn’t understand her.

Yatan felt sorry for the lives that Rebecca destroyed and created hell. The souls of the dead were drawn by the gravitational pull of hell and revived via the river of reincarnation. Rebecca’s efforts to extinguish life and free the people from a world that was nothing more than a game had been in vain.

Hanul’s reaction also made it difficult for her to keep going with her plan. He didn’t care about the truth of the world. So what if the world they lived in was artificially created? What did that have to do with anything? After all, this world was real and vast. They could live in it well enough. It was enough for him if those he didn’t like just left...

Hanul had rebelled using this logic. Instead of sympathizing with Rebecca, he branded her a lunatic murderer and attempted to kill her. Looking back at it now, Yatan and Hanul could have also acted as a vaccine, just like the Refractive Dragon.

“I knew that, perhaps, they were the ones who were right and I was in the wrong. But I couldn’t stop. There was already so much blood on my hands... I lost count the number of lives I have taken...”

It was hard to continue speaking. Rebecca’s breathing became more ragged as she paused for a moment. She stared at Grid’s face.

“...I found hope in you.”

Players were beings from a higher dimension. Despite Rebecca’s struggles, they eventually descended to this world.

She was frustrated. She felt helpless after realizing that everything in the world existed for the sake of players. She shed tears every day as she watched the people’s lives being exploited for the players’ needs or sacrificed for the players’ whims.

She couldn’t stand it. Even if she disappeared, she was determined to destroy the world once again.
