The Fake Sin Of Fallen God
Chaptre 43. The Struggle Between Two Friends

Above a height of about 2 Kilometers above the land, there were two figures fighting, one of them was enveloped in a golden aura like the color of lightning, and on the other hand, was a golden aura, the remaining figure was enveloped by the Negative Energies that formed an aura in his body.

Both figures are engrossed in their respective affairs, they will not forgive anyone interfering in their affairs.

But..

The two figures were unaware that someone was watching them from a distance, from a place that was almost impossible to reach.

And somehow, the mysterious person was able to access the vision of one of the two fighting figures, Raizel. After accessing it he moved it on an oval-shaped mirror that was floating around.

“Good.. How do you get the real truth? And what will he do when he has found it?” – The figure smiled, as if implied a message that he was looking forward to the continuation that will happen.

***

Raizel in his mind kept wondering, ‘Why? Why do you keep laughing? Is that your guilt?.’<TAG1> But he did not want his determination to collapse just because of it.

He continued to urge Dyze to the point where he used one of his abilities as the Lightning God.

『 Thunderstorm Manipulation 』

With this ability Raizel can manipulate or control the storm driving around it at will.

“Thunder: Level 3: Target: Lock.”

Raizel made a gesture like shooting towards Dyze then said the word, “Bang” from his mouth.

And after that a purple-coloured lightning roared and instantly grabbed Dyze.

Usually for people who have been struck by Level 3 lightning belonging to Raizel it will definitely be charred and only leave his ashes alone, but the other case with Dyze, even though he is not in the form of the Goddess, he is, he still remained intact with his clothes slightly dusty and dirty.

“Hadeh. My clothes are dirty because of you.”

“... Already I suspect such a small lightning will not be able to kill you.”

“Yes, that's true, but I also can't avoid it lo.”

“…”

Seeing Dyze still so relaxed made Raizel doubtful, in his little heart he refused to believe Dyze had betrayed him, but a whisper that out of nowhere in origin continued to provoke him, making his confidence that was almost shaky now became firm again.

“Because from now on you are silent, then this time the revenge for my clothes that you have broken.”

Dyze darted towards Raizel, and as he daydreamed before, Raizel became unable to react and was immediately suffocated by Dyze.

“Hmm.. I won't end you here.”

Dyze let go of his strangulation, as Raizel was able to breathe a sigh of relief, Dyze suddenly hit his head with a kick, which he was able to breathe, as a result, the ground on which Raizel landed violently exploded and shattered and fragments flew through the air.

“Urggh.”

Raizel got up by holding his head, he felt dizzy from hitting the ground surface hard.

With eyes still twitching Raizel saw the arrival of Dyze who was slowly descending the air.

“Dyze! Answer my question! Why were you protecting her then!?”

“…”

Because Dyze kept silent and did not give an answer, making Raizel who was still like a semi-conscious person is now fully awakened due to the emotions triggered by the questions that filled his head.

Raizel started to raise his sword and aimed at Dyze, then coated it with lightning.

After that he shot towards Dyze at full speed, and Dyze who saw him immediately did the same; Strengthening Chloe's sword with her Magic Energy – then Dyze shot towards Raizel.

Looks like this is the last attack and they're risking everything here.

Raizel began to feel the time around him slowing down, and a familiar voice flowed in his ear asking for them to stop fighting.

“Don't continue! Raizel looks like.!”

But Raizel decides to ignore the sound and begins to fall on his daydream.

‘Hey.. Do you think I'm on the right side?’

[Try to process questions.. ]

…

[Sorry, no answer can be found. ]

‘Does that mean I was wrong?’

[Try to find answers.. ]

…

[Sorry, no answer can be found. ]

‘How can.., Why no answer can satisfy me!?’

[ Answer unknown.. ]

Raizel began to worry, the confidence in his heart began to waver, he was worried that what had happened all this time was not what he thought.

[Notice, there is a signal you want to connect with. ]

‘Signal..?’

Raizel initially hesitates to accept it but his Skill instead connects him without Raizel's consent.

‘What are you doing!?’

[I'm sorry if it's presumptuous, but it's the best for you. ]

While Raizel was being irritated by his skill acting at will, a recording like a fragment of someone's memory was twisted in his head.

“A-what is this!?”

[It's a recording of someone's memory sending you a signal. ]

Raizel begins to shock when he learns the truth, all this time he thinks Dyze who is his best friend betrayed him for protecting Zavist, it turns out that everything that happened is not as expected.

‘The pattern I experienced at Shina's death was similar, what it means.’

[It is very likely that the Individual named Shina did the same with him, he sacrificed himself for the safety of the one who cared, you. Evidence of an incision in his neck can be evidence that he initially wanted to kill himself but in the end he abandoned his intentions. ]

‘So that agreement means.?’

Raizel becomes depressed when he learns that the two people he hates have saved his life all along.

In the moment his regrets began to accumulate, time went back to how it was – glimpses of Raizel put a smile on his face.

After that Raizel spurred his speed until they thrust each other's swords at different body points.

…

***

“Uhuk!”

A distinctive sound emanating from two people spewing blood from each other's mouth.

They were both injured, but one of them actually suffered a fatal wound; a sword that had been coated in magic lodged in his stomach, it was only a matter of time for him to encounter death.

And on the other hand – he only received a light wound on his shoulder, glaring in disbelief, he held the dying man from falling.

“Why..., Raizel! Why are you doing this!?” – He lamented Raizel who had been limp in his arms.

As Raizel's hand began to touch Dyze's cheek, a faint explosive-like sound rang out.

“Ughuk!”

Raizel again spewed out his blood, this time there were sparks in the pool of blood that came out of his body.

This can be caused by the magic inside Chloe's sword accidentally triggered under certain conditions.

As a result, Raizel's internal organs begin to burn, making him even weaker.

“Sorry.. Dyzes. It's the only way.. To atone for my sins.”

His eyes began to dim and empty, his breathing became a little breathless, and his hands were trying to reach Dyze's cheeks.

Knowing his best friend wanted to say something, Dyze brought his ear closer to Raizel who was lying dying.

“I know with your vindictive nature you will definitely avenge him.. Therefore do not be determined to fight it with a makeshift army. Prepare everything carefully.” – Raizel's hand which was originally held tightly by Dyze now touches his forehead.

A bright light shone exactly as Chronoa once did, but there was a difference here, Dyze did not lose consciousness, he was just confused about his current condition.

“I leave him to you.. He will definitely be useful to you someday.”

“Raizel! Answer my question! Why are you doing all this!?”

Raizel who had now almost lost his sight was trying to fumble Dyze's cheeks, and he put a smile on his face.

“I did this to strengthen you. With this sacrifice you will be able to access your god form even if only for a few moments.”

“Raizel.”

“And at least.. Let me rest in you forever.. I'd like to see your journey from a different side.” – hands holding Dyze's cheeks fell to the ground.

The scenery he saw now was—

Hell.

He again felt the loss of a loved one for the umpteenth time.

And again every precious person in his life when he died always put a smile on his face.

Wh why?

Why did this happen to her again?

Does God have a personal grudge against him?

A pitch-black aura mixed with a dark purple color encompassed him, ground-based

No, the whole Neiphr shook violently, this time Dyze was much more wrathful than before.

The sky, which had originally been brightened by Raizel's death, was now completely dark again.

And it did not just apply to the sky above them, as if Neiphr was enveloped by a grieving sky.

Chloe, Claire and Argus quickly approach Dyze, who has the possibility of losing control again.

“Claire! Use your Barrier to lock it up!”

“And Argus! Prepare your restraint skill, if he manages to destroy Claire's Barrier!”

“Good Mistress!”

Claire hesitates when she realizes that Chloe is not up to the task at all.

“And you, Chloe?”

“I've done this before, so no problem. Make a dome made of your Barrier. Then make a small hole as my entrance. After that close all your dome access to be perfect!”

“…”

Claire simply bowed her head without giving any confirmation of the answer.

But now is not the time to bother with something like this.

Klikkkp.

Chloe slows down World time again, but this time there are exceptions for new individuals; claire and Argus.

“Barrier : Heavenly Dome!”

Claire's eyes began to change from initially red like a ruby jewel now to yellow to orange like gold.

After a dome made of Claire's orange Barrier has been created properly, Chloe immediately darted in through the access door that Claire had provided.

But when Chloe has embraced Dyze and her skin begins to blister, Claire ignores Chloe's directive to shut all entry, she runs at the speed of sound into the giant gold dome that shuts them down.

“What does he do anyway!?”

Argus became indecisive; did he have to keep abiding by Chloe's orders no matter what? Or did he have to break his orders for Chloe's safety?

“Sial! At times like this where can I hesitate!”

He decided to break his orders by following in their footsteps.

Just before Claire's golden dome closed completely, Argus managed to enter it.
