Part 2 Chapter 126: I’m in a relationship. / 850
TL: Hanguk
That day, strangely, he wanted to go wherever his heart led him.
So he moved wherever his feet took him.
And he arrived, by chance, at a certain world.
Of all days, it was one filled only with dark clouds in the sky, but through a small gap that happened to open between the clouds, a warm ray of sunlight just big enough to shine on one person descended beautifully to the ground, creating a long beam of light.
The beam of light was so beautiful that the Creator God's gaze naturally followed the light to the ground, and there, caught in that light by coincidence, he discovered a woman with red hair resembling a rose.
The woman, bathed in light, lifted her head and enjoyed the rays falling upon her with a bright smile, and that was when it happened.
Thump. Thump.
He fell for her.
To the woman with red hair, whom he met through overlapping chances and coincidences, the Creator God lost his heart. After many twists of fate, he fell in love.
Though he had given love to his creations all his life, this was a different kind of love.
“Hello. I’m Fabio. I was just passing by, would it be alright if I enjoy the sunlight with you?”
The Creator God, who had never once hidden his identity in his life, unknowingly changed his appearance and approached the woman to speak to her.
“Of course. Come on over. I’m Meirin.”
And thus, the Creator God exchanged greetings with Meirin.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
“Ah. It's nothing.”
He kept staring at Meirin. No matter how much he looked, or rather, the more he looked, the more he saw in her a beauty as deep and inescapable as a swamp.
The two of them enjoyed the sunlight together for about ten minutes.
"Now that the clouds have cleared, let us part ways too. It was pleasant. Fabio."
“I enjoyed it too, Meirin...”
As the dark clouds dispersed, the dreamlike time of the Creator God also disappeared.
How can I meet Meirin again?
As the Creator God pondered a natural way to reunite with Meirin,
[The 10th Tower has grown into the 10th Great Tower.]
The 10th Tower?
That means Sejun has become the owner of the 10th Great Tower?
He heard the news that Sejun had become the owner of the 10th Great Tower.
“Hm. Then Sejun won’t faint anymore.”
After confirming Sejun’s level, the Creator God felt relieved and went to find Sejun.
And then,
“There’s not much, but please have some.”
While enjoying the snacks that Sejun offered.
It would be nice to eat this with Meirin...
He thought of Meirin.
Ah. That’s it!
At the same time, he came up with a way to naturally meet Meirin using Sejun’s snacks.
Kking!
[All roasted and dried sweet potato belongs to great Blackie!]
I’m going to give them to my Meirin!
And so, he went a bit too far in dealing with Blackie, who tried to snatch the roasted and dried sweet potatoes he wanted to give to Meirin. He could not take back what he was already eating.
Thus, the Creator God took the snacks he got from Sejun’s house and went to find the village where Meirin lived.
“Oh? Hello! You’re Meirin-nim, right? What a coincidence, running into you here.”
After circling the village dozens of times until he ran into her, he succeeded in creating a fateful encounter disguised as coincidence.
“Ah. Would you like to eat some tasty snacks with me? I happened to get these by chance, but it’s too much for me to eat alone.”
The Creator God opened his bundle and showed her the snacks.
“Wow. They look delicious! Sure.”
Fortunately, Meirin accepted the Creator God's offer.
“Wow. Fabio-nim, this is really delicious!”
“Hahaha. I’m glad. Meirin, try this one too.”
As the two of them shared Sejun’s snacks, they were able to grow a bit closer.
“Um… Meirin, I think I might be able to get these snacks again tomorrow if I’m lucky. If you’re okay with it... would you like to eat together again tomorrow?”
“...Sure.”
The Creator God used Sejun’s snacks as an excuse to keep meeting Meirin.
And after that, he kept visiting Sejun’s house every day for a reason to meet Meirin.
And now, back to the present.
“Hahaha. Meirin, I’ll come again tomorrow.”
“Yes. Fabio, I love you.”
Smooch.
The Creator God, now officially dating Meirin from today, left the village with a silly smile on his face and headed toward an open field when.
“Hm?”
This aura?
Sensing a familiar energy, he looked toward the bushes.
“Creator God-nim, you look like you're in a really good mood? I wonder why might that be?”
Sejun and his companions appeared, their expressions saying they knew everything.
“Phew. Fine. I’m in a relationship.”
The Creator God answered honestly. After all, he was in his twilight years, and whatever he did was his own freedom. He had nothing to hide.
“But you need my snacks.”
“That’s...”
At Sejun’s words, the Creator God flinched. Because Sejun was right.
Though he had already won Meirin’s heart.
I still want to see that bright smile again.
The Creator God wanted to feed Meirin Sejun’s delicious snacks every day.
“Creator God-nim, I really want to go on dates with Aileen too. So...”
Sejun made a proposal to the Creator God.
If he gave him information that could make him stronger, or good items or abilities, he would supply snacks for life.
However.
If I had anything like that, I’d have given it already...
The Creator God no longer had any means to make Sejun stronger. He had already used every method available.
Hm. Maybe I could give that?
Except for just one.
The Creator God fell into deep thought.
A moment later.
“Then I shall give you my ability. I’m talking about the ability of the Creator God.”
“What?”
You’re giving me what now?
“The Children of Creation are growing well, so the world won’t face destruction. All I need now is time to live with Meirin. So I will give you the rest. Until the Children of Creation are fully grown, you’ll have to manage the world, Sejun, so it actually works out well.”
Tap.
The Creator God placed his hand on Sejun’s head with a relieved expression, as Sejun stood speechless in shock.
Flash.
Light began to emit from the Creator God’s hand, and
“No! Don’t give it to me!”
“You can’t, meow! Don’t give it, meow! Chairman Park will faint, meow!”
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. You really shouldn’t give that...!”
Kueng! Kueng!
[Creator God-nim, you mustn’t give it! Dad will be in danger!]
Kking! Kking?!
[You damned Creator God, I told you not to give it! Are you trying to assassinate my butler?!]
“Dad, it’s dangerous!”
Sejun and his companions screamed. This pattern was way too familiar.
“Hahaha. Don’t worry. Don’t you think I know how weak Sejun is?”
Fortunately, the Creator God knew all too well that Sejun was as fragile as a sunfish.
[The great Creator God has bestowed upon Black Tower's Tower Farmer Park Sejun the qualification to act as a proxy for the great Creator God.]
[You have acquired <Unique Title: Proxy Creator God>.]
He only gave Sejun the title.
<Unique Title: Proxy Creator God>
→ You can perform the duties of the Creator God on his behalf.
→ Each time you perform the Creator God's duties, you can accumulate time to use the Creator God's ability through <Unique Power: Temporary Creator God>
One that can perform the Creator God's duties on his behalf.
Temporary Creator God?
Sejun quickly checked the <Unique Power: Temporary Creator God>.
<Unique Power: Temporary Creator God>
→ By converting the effort spent on performing the Creator God's tasks, you may use the Creator God's powers without restriction from causality.
→ Currently available time for ability use: 0.0001 seconds
→ Accumulated time: 0 seconds
“Oh!”
Then all I have to do is perform the Creator God’s duties and rack up time?
“Wait, no! Creator God-nim, no matter how I look at it, this is just a blatant attempt to exploit me, isn’t it?!”
“Hahaha. So you figured it out.”
The Creator God didn’t deny Sejun’s accusation.
“But still, you’ll do it anyway, right?”
“What? Why would I?”
Why, you ask?
[A quest has occurred for the Black Tower’s Tower Farmer, Park Sejun, holder of <Unique Title: Proxy Creator God>.]
[Quest: Please go to the 5th level world <Naunti> and move the stone located at the point where causality has twisted. If the stone is left unattended, a volcanic disaster may occur in the future.]
Reward: 10 minutes of <Unique Power: Temporary Creator God> time will be accumulated
‘All I have to do is move a stone and I get 10 minutes?’
That means I can go on a date with Aileen for 10 minutes?!
The task was way too easy, and the reward was huge.
“I’ll try it for now.”
Great! Let’s move that stone quickly and go on a date with Aileen!
“Hahaha. Good. Smart choice.”
Now that Sejun is doing the work for me, I can stay with Meirin all I want.
And so, a win-win deal was sealed for both Sejun and the Creator God.
***
“Aileen, I’m back!”
“Puhuhut. I, Vice Chairman Theo, am back too, meow!”
When Sejun and his party returned after moving a single stone in <Naunti>,
“Mm. Welcome back.”
“Teecher-nim, welcome back!”
Aileen and the Children of Destruction greeted them warmly.
“Everyone, wait just a minute! I’ll make a delicious dinner! Hmm! Hmm! Hmm!”
As Sejun entered the kitchen, much more excited than usual,
“Iona, what’s up with Sejun?”
Aileen called Iona over and asked.
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. You’ll find out after the meal.”
Iona replied playfully.
“What is it~?”
Aileen tried tickling Iona to get her to talk,
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Sejun-nim told me not to say.”
But Iona held back her laughter and refused to answer.
“Tch. Fine.”
“Kyung... I’m sorry.”
As Aileen made a pouty face, Iona responded with an apologetic one.
At that moment.
“Everyone, let’s eat~!”
Sejun’s still-excited voice rang out, and dinner soon began.
A little later.
Once dinner was finished.
“Aileen, shall we take a walk in the 10th Great Tower?”
Sejun, holding two cups of coffee that Cuengi had handed him, spoke to Aileen.
“Sure. I’d love to.”
Aileen took the coffee Sejun offered and walked into the 10th Great Tower with him.
And then.
“Meeeeeow. Chairman Park! I, Vice Chairman Theo, want to go too, meow! I want to walk with you too, meow!”
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Theo-nim, stay still.”
Kueng!
[Big bro, you can’t disturb Dad’s date!]
Kihihit. Kking! Kking!
[Hehe. Big bro, stay put! Butler said he’d give me three roasted and dried sweet potatoes if I held you down!]
“Heehee. Big brother, stay still. Taecho’s sleepy...”
Theo, restrained by Iona, Cuengi, Blackie, and Taecho, reached his front paws desperately toward the door leading to the 10th Great Tower, where Sejun and Aileen had gone.
Puhuhut. Even so, I, Vice Chairman Theo, can go to Chairman Park immediately if I use Light Speed Meow-Step meow!
Of course, he was quietly waiting for a chance.
However.
Light Speed Meow-Step!
“Meow?!”
He couldn’t reach Sejun.
What’s going on, meow?!
Theo panicked.
Then I’ll go even stronger, meow!
Meow-meow...
As he focused with even stronger will to reach Sejun.
–Vice Chairman Theo, just wait 10 minutes. If you wait 10 minutes, I’ll give you 100 days of exclusive lap rights.
Sejun’s urgent voice rang inside Theo’s head.
The moment he entered the 10th Great Tower, Sejun had used <Unique Power: Temporary Creator God>.
Since he was in physical contact with Aileen, he blocked Theo’s attempt to use Light Speed Meow-Step to reach him.
Of course, the stronger Theo’s will to reach Sejun, the stronger the power of Light Speed Meow-Step would become, so Sejun offered a carrot, exclusive lap rights.
But.
–Puhuhut. Chairman Park, give me 200 days of exclusive lap rights, meow! Or I’ll use Light Speed Meow-Step right now, meow!
Thanks to learning from someone way too well, Theo knew exactly when to play hardball.
–...Deal.
Sejun had no choice but to accept Theo’s counteroffer.
Thanks to that, Sejun was able to use the short 10 minutes wisely and enjoy a happy date with Aileen.
