Selma Payne’s POV:
However, this weak and pathetic man did not have the courage to personally express his love to the goddess. Therefore, under the bewitchment of the demon, he decided to ask the goddess to give birth to his child first.
Once a woman in the mortal world became pregnant and gave birth, she would never be able to leave her man and child. No matter how noble the goddess was, could she resist this natural occurrence?
Therefore, while the goddess was sleeping soundly, the man dripped his sweat onto the goddess’ belly button. The demon told him that this would make the goddess pregnant.
After the man left, the demon used a soft reed to gently wipe away the sweat left by the man and dripped a drop of his blood on the goddess’ navel.
The demon’s magic and the goddess’ divine power combined through blood, and the goddess became pregnant.
When the goddess woke up and found out she was pregnant for no reason, she was naturally furious. She swore to find that man. However, there was no trace of him. The goddess searched everywhere but to no avail. After seven days, she gave birth to a baby girl.
The goddess both loved and hated this child. She was proof that she had been humiliated for no reason and was also her blood descendant.
The goddess carried the child to the edge of the cliff. As she was hesitating, the man who had been secretly observing her appeared. He confessed all his sins to the goddess and begged her not to kill their child.
But how could the goddess forgive this disrespectful sinner? In her anger, she turned the man into a mayfly, living and dying in short cycles, never to see the moon again.
As for this child, the goddess could not kill him, so she removed the ‘sweat drop’ that belonged to the father from the child’s body and threw it into the sea, naming the child ‘Madeline’.
The drop of ‘sweat’, or demon blood, sank to the bottom of the sea and was carried by the current to the edge of the gap between the human world and hell. Another great demon living in seclusion in the sea discovered the great drama between them, so he hid the drop of blood.
After an unknown period, the demon in the sea rescued a ship in the storm. She looked at a witch on the ship and thought she was a very qualified vessel, so she gave her the devil’s blood.
The witch gave birth to a child, and she named her ‘Madelyn’.
Time passed, and Madeline and Madelyn experienced the cycle of birth, aging, sickness, and death. In this life, the two sisters met again by chance and became very good friends.
“This is the truth, children.”
Azazel picked up the painting. The picture was still fixed on two girls chatting on the lawn in the suburbs.
That was Dorothy and me. I remembered how Dorothy’s grandmother screamed herself hoarse that day and how helpless that girl was.
Dorothy and I looked at each other in disbelief.
“Moon Goddess – that’s what you call her, right? I have to admit that she is a beautiful and noble woman. She is mesmerizing and radiant like the moonlight.”
Azazel chuckled, and the oil painting changed again. A woman whose face could not be seen was leaning against the window. Outside the window was an endless sea of flowers.
“That was the most praiseworthy prank I’ve ever played. It’s just that I didn’t expect her to keep our daughter. I was genuinely surprised for a long time!”
Just as he finished speaking, time seemed to have stopped for a second. It was when the sun was shining, but the sky suddenly darkened for some reason. However, the light did not disappear. Instead, it changed from a hot sun to a soft and warm one.
It was moonlight.
I belatedly realized that this was moonlight.
It was Moon Goddess.
Finally, she could no longer tolerate the frivolous offense of the outsider and was ready to kick this horned bat cub back to hell to eat lava.
Azazel became even more excited. He laughed maniacally until he started coughing.
“My dear! My dear! Look at our daughters, how beautiful and strong they are!
“I should have come earlier. I should have raised them myself. I should have gotten rid of their useless cowardice and unnecessary kindness and trained them into villains. This way, the world would be more interesting!”
However, he did not talk for too long. The silver moonlight turned into soft silk and bound him firmly. Azazel didn’t panic. He only sighed and said, “As expected, even if those idiots paid such a high price, their bodies still couldn’t last long under your hands.”
Azazel was beginning to lose his appearance, shifting back and forth so that I could see the people sacrificed for his arrival.
The moonlight silk began to shrink, which undoubtedly caused Azazel’s body to collapse even faster.
“Alright, alright, I understand. What a rude lady.”
“It seems that your mother doesn’t want me to visit you. What should I do in the human world? Should I apply for a visiting permit from the court?”
Azazel was grinning, and even at the last second of his mental breakdown, he still said, “We will meet again, children.
“Don’t worry.
“That day will come sooner or later.
“Goodbye-”
With Azazel’s collapse, everything he had caused dissipated.
I seemed to feel that when the moonlight returned to the moon, someone glanced at me.
It was over, though temporarily, I believed..
