Ironically the collapse of a perfect world was uniquely beautiful
Billions and trillions of glowing specks burst from the pool and ocean and soared through the night sky They became a band of light that lit up the city like it was midday
But Mutsuki and Ange failed to see that dreamlike sight
Because their lips were pressed together and their eyes were shut
After a while Ange finally laughed
The world had changed It was back to normal
It no longer felt wrong to have rejected his suggestion Yes This was how it should be What was wrong with not doing what he said
And now that it no longer felt wrong she knew exactly what to say first
What do you think you’re doing stupid
She complained
She complained to the person who had been as right as it was possible to be until just now
There was no longer any reason not to He was no longer perfect
A lot of the golden seeds that had been in the pool flew toward the deck nearby Black liquid and flames surrounded them to regain their original forms
They became Machina Lucia Micha Rapha and the 13 angels
Although those two did not see it happen since they had begun a second kiss
Hey quit stealing him Jiyuuni
My my Does this mean love saved the world
Dwaahh
Whoa
Lucia’s complaint and Micha’s teasing snapped her out of it Ange shoved Mutsuki away
Mutsuki staggered and Machina caught him in her arms with a silent frown on her face
Lucia was livid and Ange was blushing Micha and Rapha smiled happily as they watched on
How could you
A stir ran through the 13 angels
They had cast off the ability to speak or think for themselves in order to optimize themselves for combat but that gave them a more sensitive demon radar than even Ange or Micha
They were the first to notice the violent evil growing there
How could youu
But they did not have time to react
The woman with long platinum blonde hair transformed into a massive white serpent The 13 angels were thrust from the ship’s deck by her great mass
The serpent did not even watch them fall as she turned her pitch-black left eye and human-looking right eye toward only Mutsuki
Why Avalon We had finallyfinally become one
Large tears fell from the human right eye
Tch Stand back Mutsuki
Ange moved out front
Blue wings burst from her back and surrounded that area Her fire was especially effective against demons so Lilith would be unable to even approach
I won’t allow it I won’t give up He is
But the serpent did not seem to care as her scales burned and fell away as ashes More than not feeling pain she did not seem to care about her body at all
He is mine
Her great maw opened wide enough to cover everything
Machina and Lucia protected Mutsuki but it did not mean much against something so large Everything on the deck would be swallowed
They all shut their eyes
I’m sorry Lilith
Except for Mutsuki
He looked her in the eye with his pitch-black right eye
The serpent with gaping mouth immediately vanished
All that remained was a long-haired maiden
Just a girl who had decided if she could not bite that boy she would at least cling to him
Why Why
Her tears spilled onto his chest and all he could do was stroke her hair
Avalon is gone and I can’t replace him for you
Gh hh
But even if I’m not Avalon
Sob gh
Thank you for loving me
Adolescent Adam 9 Chapter 7 - Avalon and Lucya
Ten days had passed
Ange and the other angels had all stopped their work and returned to heaven due to Adam shutting everything down and the necessity of a punishment hearing regarding Micha and Lilith’s actions
Meanwhile Mutsuki was in FeTUS’s custody
He ended up living in that grassy underground field with Lucia who had refused to leave his side
As usual tea was being prepared at the white wooden table there
Have a seat
He generally shared tea with Machina Lucia and
Phew this new body’s shoulders get so stiff It’s getting to be a real problem
a voluptuous woman he had never before seen
She was an adult beauty with narrow angular eyes an icy musk and full lips that seemed wet with lipstick She was mostly slender but her bust and butt were noticeably curvy and she only ever wore a thin robe which gave glimpses of those curves when she moved Um are you really Alice
I am Well I am technically a clone given a backup of the original’s memories to avoid any chaos within FeTUS if anything were to happen to me
He never would have imagined that little girl could look like this His heart pounded and he reached for the tea to help calm himself
She gave him a wink with her lyrical eyes and she wore a cheap bear-print ribbon on her belt Mutsuki had given her that ribbon before
They could not repair the original body but that isn’t too surprising since it was 600 years old
Apparently the original – that young girl – really was dead
The boy’s shoulders slumped because his memories told him that was his fault
That body was nearing its telomere lifespan anyway so it makes little difference Don’t let it get you down
I see But still
I had kept that body so young because everyone recognized that as the manager of FeTUS but I had wanted a proper adult body for a while This finally gave me the excuse I wanted
She actually held her chest out happily
Heh heh heh Check out these titties Miss D and the others can’t lord it over me any longer
Alice
Spending centuries as a child seems to have left her with some deep-seated issues said the rabbit doll
Quiet you
The look she gave her rabbit friend looked much more liberated and bright than the scowl she had shown as a child
Mutsuki still felt bad but if she said she was happier this way he would try not to let it bother him too much
And it seems that body was the only real loss throughout this whole affair
FeTUS had spent the last 10 days investigating and it seemed the side effects of that few hours of turmoil had been unexpectedly small
Everyone who had their Fruit of Knowledge taken had lost all memory of it happening and the world simply saw it as everyone zoning out for a few hours Since all memory of it had been lost only those who had been monitoring the time closely for their job had even noticed something was amiss FeTUS’s primary job over the past 10 days had been to lock down that minority of people and alter their data or memories as needed Some people had a lingering feeling of unexplained happiness but that had faded with time and people had stopped talking about it by now Since everyone’s safety had been guaranteed throughout no one had been lost Those who had been on their deathbeds had apparently managed to pass away feeling fulfilled but they were barely even a rounding error in the total numbers Online there were theories that some country had tested a psychological weapon that a solar flare had been used to hack the brains of the earthlings or magnetism had messed with relativity to alter the flow of time but those were all being treated as absurd urban legends at this point Japanese TV was entirely ignoring the strange phenomenon to instead focus on how Deputy Prime Minister ookura’s ship had been carried to a certain academy and destroyed the clock tower there Investigation of the ship had uncovered suspicions of him misappropriating tax money so the news was full of adults in suits speaking into microphones with concerned looks on their faces Most everyone online and on TV was enjoying watching the scandal play out
So in the end Miss A really did seem to be the only thing that had changed
Feeling like it had all been meaningless Mutsuki took a sip of the tea which had gone cold by now
Are you unhappy with this result
The witch seemed to see right through him so he smiled bitterly
I am even though I would only have more regrets if things had changed more
But with nothing changed he could not quite figure out what he had even done at all
