Chapter 345: Orb of Wishes (9)
The night sky over Seodaemun-gu filled with golden light.
Unlike the usual quiet darkness, the sky was now a spectacle of light that seemed to breathe with life.
This magnificent sight, created by several times more fuel than Yerin possessed soaring into the sky, was like the sun rising in the middle of the night.
Perhaps because it was made of fuel, the golden aurora’s streams of light undulated and danced like living flames.
As the curtain of light covered the sky, the ruins below were enveloped in its shadow.
The shadows moved ceaselessly like ocean waves, making it seem as if the collapsed buildings were breathing.
Even the stars and moons that had adorned the night sky moments ago were now hidden behind this intense golden radiance.
I teleported to the center of the aurora and grasped the Golden Horned Reaper, which appeared to be the cause of this situation.
‘Long time no see.’
I enjoyed the sensation of squeezing the soft horns of the mischievous Golden Reaper I hadn’t seen in a while.
A deceptively hard-looking but jelly-like, addictive texture.
As I pressed the horns, the Golden Horned Reaper scrunched up its head as if ticklish and giggled.
‘Did you create this fuel aurora?’
When I asked about the golden aurora filling the sky and flaunting its presence, the Golden Horned Reaper nodded with a giggle.
I patted its head a few times, then gently placed the Golden Horned Reaper on top of my head.
The two on my head then grabbed my antennae together, like holding onto the handles of an amusement park ride.
‘Let’s go then. With this much fuel, we should be able to do anything, absolutely anything.’
I started walking, looking at the ‘Old God’-shaped man who was staring up at the sky as if bewildered.
