Chapter 245 - Last Dusk Part 3
*BEAUZ & JVNA - Crazy [NCS Release] *
"Oh, Lady Raven," Abbadon widened his eyes in realization. "Then the real reason you came to personally pick me up from that planet rather than using our Mind Link…"
Ah… it all made sense! His mistress was short on time and was not going to just waste time like that! And it\'s not like Abbadon himself that she would be worried about him...
No, she planned on spreading the Cyber Particles so that she could teleport there at will!
That would open countless possibilities, especially if she\'s done that on every planet that was not destroyed!
She could technically teleport the people there if worse comes to worst!
"Lady Raven… you\'re truly a genius!!" Abbadon\'s eyes were sparkling, unlike his usual self.
Of course! Why not use other planets? They could easily move planets if the invasion was too massive! Sure, they\'d have to get used to new environments with new dangers, but it\'s better than perishing!
"Hehe, as expected of my loyal Abbadon!" Raven seemed satisfied as she had a rare childish proud grin on her face while rubbing her nose lightly. "Kayla has already tested the candidate planets and made sure we have at least a couple that can be good replacements for Earth.
"Additionally, the Teleportation Gates are already set up and we can start mass teleportation at any moment!
"Furthermore, many of the alien rulers on our side have already agreed to the plan while maintaining the same relationship we already have; with me as the Supreme Ruler, even if we used their own planet as our new home!
"They\'re obviously experiencing a period of advancements that they\'ve never imagined witnessing, so they could not help but be so excited about it!"
"That\'s… beyond my wildest expectations!" Abbadon could not help but mutter. "Lady Raven and Lady Kayla, I truly have a lot to learn from you! You\'re always thinking ahead and making sure to have backup plans!
"I am truly just a little naive kid in front of your heavenly wisdom! I\'m honoured to be your loyal servant, Lady Raven!"
Raven was so touched, but she couldn\'t not help but frown after seeing the stars of excitement in Abbadon\'s eyes
"However," her expression suddenly turned grim, subconsciously twisting Abbadon\'s smile. He suddenly stopped smiling and listened carefully. "Even if everyone; humans, demons, and aliens, decided to accept abandoning Earth and live peacefully on another planet, I won\'t leave, no matter what."
Her voice sounded absolutely serious, leaving no place for argument.
"Bullsh*t! I\'ll kick you myself if you don\'t leave!" A childish, yet very angry, voice suddenly thundered across the golden afternoon sky.
Abbadon was not the one to speak. However, he was only startled for a second, before nodding his head in agreement.
Under normal circumstances, anyone who dared utter those words to his precious mistress would be already dead. However, the person who spoke was so close to Raven that Abbadon would not dare touch her.
Raven gasped lightly after hearing the angry voice, but her face got even more serious. She had already expected Gaia to be eavesdropping, but she was not going to leave no matter what.
Gaia\'s little fairly-sized body appeared out of thin air with a puff of sparkles. A heavy frown was plastered across her face. "Did you hear me? The moment you realize that you can\'t win, you\'ll leave with everyone else at once!
"If not, then I\'ll force your little sorry a*s through the teleportation portal myself, before sealing it! Do you get it?" Gaia was serious as she yelled at Raven.
"No. I\'m a bit slow on the uptake, I didn\'t get it." Raven suddenly looked away as if to ignore Gaia\'s presence while whistling absently.
"Ugh, you blockhead!" Gaia\'s tiny hands suddenly started slapping and punching Raven\'s armoured shoulder, dealing zero damage. Although she was completely and absolutely serious, the scene looked rather comical because of her tiny body. "Why would you stay here if it\'s dangerous for you? Did you already forget that I had tried to kill you?
"Heh!" Gaia harrumphed, trying to sound cold. "I don\'t even know why I bother. It\'s not like I care if you die!"
"Good, then you should not mind me staying behind," Raven grinned.
"Ugh, you-" Gaia groaned. "You goddamn… you dummy! Why would you stay? Give me one valid reason!"
"Hm, I can think of many," Rvan shrugged.
"Then tell me!" She demanded.
"Hm," Raven suddenly turned towards Gaia and closed the distance between their faces. Gaia tried to look angry, but her face immediately blushed. "I- *sigh* I\'m not sure when, but at some point, I started thinking of you as a friend, Gaia, you should already know that."
"But, Raven…" the tiny fairy seemed on the verge of tears. "The Seraphim of the End are not just some stupid angels! They\'re legendary existences that bring destruction upon anything they deem unfit of existing! You\'ll most likely die if you dare stay!"
"So what?" Raven shrugged, sounding indifferent. "It\'s not like I didn\'t consider the consequences-"
"You-" Gaia tried harder to conceal her flushed cheeks and watery eyes. However, her anger was real.
"Gaia," Raven interrupted. "You can\'t be this selfish!" She scolded.
Gaia stiffened, hearing her words.
"I told you that there are many reasons, and you\'re only one of them," Raven sounded serious. "So, please, try not to feel guilty about my own decision.
"I have to stay because I have to meet Maya.
"I have to stay because I don\'t want to abandon my home.
"I have to stay because I can\'t allow my subordinates to abandon their homes.
"I haven\'t told many people about the Teleportation Gates nor am I planning to use them unless we have absolutely no other choice.
"Gaia, you must understand. The moment we provide a way out, many people will find it easier to give up. The temptation to leave peacefully and without getting harmed is rather strong, that\'s why I can\'t allow everyone to know about it; only a handful of my own subordinates know about it, so only I have the final say on the matter. Not even the EDA higher ups know about them!
"Also, think of it this way; what if the stupid Seraphim have a way to track as down? Do we just keep bouncing between planets with a trail of blood behind us? I absolutely can\'t allow that to happen...
"So please, Gaia, don\'t be selfish and ask me to abandon Earth, my home… you.." As she finished, Raven was already pressing the tiny fairy\'s body against her chest in a warm hug.
