PICKING UP BEAUTIFUL GIRLS IN THE POST-APOCALYPTIC WORLD!

“You either fuck off or I’ll send a skill of my own right back at you. And you know what will happen to this floor if I do that,”

Han spoke in a tone that revealed how serious he was and the rumbling in the sky started to die down after a while as it moved toward Raphael once more. If both Han and the creator released skills at the same time on this floor, there is no way that this floor wouldn’t be destroyed. Han knows that the creator wouldn’t want to destroy this floor because the creator was the one that made this entire temple. Who would want to destroy something they created with their own hands?

Han turned back to Raphael and he saw the Angel sitting up from the crater that the first lightning bolt dug him into. He had a look of fury on his face as he pulled himself out from the crater and stumbled to his feet. His wings were singed at the edges and there were black scorch marks all over his body because of the lightning. Han scoffed in amusement! This look immediately reminded him of a fried chicken!

“Father!!… Father!!! So this is how you greet your fucking son after a hundred thousand years!!”

Bzzzzzzzztttttttt!!!!

Another large lightning bolt shot down from the air and slammed into Raphael before he could even finish whatever he wanted to say and Han noticed that Raphael managed to negate the lightning a little this time. Raphael was a high-ranking angel so it wasn’t surprising that he was able to withstand that lightning bolt. But even though he could tank this one, that does not mean that he was strong enough to survive the next attack from the creator.

That lightning bolt that Raphael tanked was nothing but a warning shot and Han knows that the creator was simply trying to get Raphael to shut up. A deep rumbling voice echoed across the entire floor as the creator finally spoke.

“I care not for your delusions of grandeur, Raphael. From ashes and dreams, I made you. And just like I created you, I shall once again return you to ashes and dreams. I gave you an order that was to be followed. You have no excuse. Simply rejoice in the mercy of an isolated death free from humiliation in front of those you despise,”

Raphael stumbled as he tried to force himself to stay on his feet. He glared up at the sky and wiped some blood from his lips before looking around him. The only person in the entire area was Han and Raphael realized that the creator used all that lightning before to chase everyone away from this floor so that Raphael could die without being humiliated. Raphael chuckled a little. How kind of you, father.

Raphael then looked toward Han and he saw the blank look that Han was giving him. For some reason, being looked down on by that man just made this so much worse! Raphael stood up straight and glared at Han.

“You must be happy that one of your greatest enemies is finally out of the picture. And look at that, you ou didn’t even have to lift a fucking finger,”

Han wanted to scoff, but he realized that it wasn’t worth the trouble at all. To tell the truth, Han didn’t even know who the fuck Raphael was until recently! The only thing that Han knew about him was the fact that he was a Celestial and he must’ve pissed off the creator in some way for the creator to be punishing him like this. Right now, Han was just a spectator and he wasn’t going to interfere in this punishment. It was obvious that the creator was tired of Raphael.

It was only a few days ago that Han learned about the instruction that the creator gave to all the celestials. Ratte told Han that the creator told all the celestials not to come to the temple until Han came down from the upper floors. Han has been so busy up there that he didn’t know anything about Raphael or what the celestials were doing. But that doesn’t mean that Han wasn’t enjoying this sight. Han doesn’t even know who the hell Raphael was, but watching this punishment brought a smile to Han’s face.

Han responded to Raphael in the most condescending tone that he has ever used.

“How in the world are you my greatest enemy, chicken? Before today, I didn’t even know your name,”

Raphael released a wave of bloodlust in anger at Han’s words but before he could do anything another bolt of lightning shot down from the sky! This time, the lightning was so strong that it obliterated the entire area and threw rocks and trees everywhere as it sent Raphael into the ground!!

Bzzzzzzzztttttttt!

Raphael screamed in pain as he felt the millions of volts traveling through him! He tried to tank this hit as well, but this lightning bolt was far stronger than the other ones and he couldn’t even attempt to protect himself from it! By the time the creator stopped the lightning, Raphael’s hair had turned black. Raphael fell to his knees in pain and placed his hands on the ground while breathing heavily.

He couldn’t accept this sort of death! He wouldn’t accept it! Why the hell was he the one being punished!? Han was right there! The enemy of all the celestial was floating right there but the bastard creator wasn’t doing anything about it! Why aren’t you attacking him instead of me!?

“What have I done!? Fucking answer me!”

Raphael screamed like a madman into the sky! He was now pissed at the creator! What was the fucking reason for this!?

“He is right over there! I am not the one that did anything wrong! He is the one that killed hundred of your fucking children! So why the fuck are you only punishing me!!?”

“Why should a god have to answer to his own creation? My intent and reasons are my own and your life is mine to do with as I see fit. If your death is the way you will learn your lesson, then I would gladly grant you what you desire,”

How cruel.

Han couldn’t stop this thought from crossing his mind immediately after he heard what the creator said. Han did not pity Raphael, but Han still thought that Raphael deserved an answer at least. The last thing a man needs is death without meaning. If you wish to kill a man, then grant him meaning and reason for his death.

Raphael, meanwhile, went completely still once he heard what the creator said. He couldn’t even move or talk because it was a total shock to him. The fact the that creator was treating his life like it was some sort of switch that could be flipped off at any time! It was shell-shocking!

Up in the celestial plane, there were hundreds of Celestials watching the events happening down on the lower floors with rapt attention! They all saw how Raphael was being punished and they all heard what the creator said about taking Raphael’s life like it was nothing! Once they heard this, the celestial looked towards each other in shock because they couldn’t believe that this was how the creator viewed them! The celestials always thought they were the most superior species because they were eternal! They looked down on mortals and treated them like trash that didn’t even deserve the very air they were breathing!

But now they realized that this was the exact way that the creator saw them as well. They were nothing but ants in front of the creator! Trash that could be tossed aside and stepped on at any point in time! It was like an eye-opener for them and they could only watch Raphael’s death with some fear entering their hearts.

Would they be next? Would something like this happen to them if they suddenly disobey the creator?

Everyone already knew the answer to those questions so no one needed to say it out loud.

The person that was watching the show with the most attention was Paladin himself. Paladin was the one that orchestrated this entire situation. He sent Raphael to the temple and Paladin also used his influence with the creator to make sure that the creator found out about Raphael going to the temple. Paladin was a genius and he was also someone that could see thousands of scenarios playing out in his head all at the same time.

But this, was something he did not foresee.

When Paladin planned all this, he thought that the creator would be angry and he would place Raphael in jail or even limbo for a while to teach him a lesson. He thought that Raphael would at least get out of this alive. But the creator was more than ready to eradicate Raphael once and for all! Why? Why was the creator so intent on protecting Han Luo?

Because there was nothing else that Paladin could call this other than protection! Han Luo was the enemy of the celestials and he was floating right there but the creator wasn’t even touching him. The creator even allowed him to stay and watch. The favoritism and protection were clear as day for everyone to see. But why? What does Han Luo have that all the other mortals in this godforsaken temple don’t have? Is it because of his special system? Is it because it is the king of binaries that gave him the system?

I really don’t know, but this… Could end up being a big problem.
