Chapter 316 – Goddess who Opened Her Eyes – PLAYER WHO RETURNED 10,000 YEARS LATER

Chapter 316 – Goddess who Opened Her Eyes

[The rift closed successfully!]

[Gaia’s system is partially restored]

– Uh-uh-uh… – Si Hoon breathed heavily, emerging from the split.

He managed to jump in literally a moment before closing.

– Kang Woo!

As soon as they left, a pale Han Sol ran up to them. She put her hand on the bleeding boy’s chest and white light spread over her. The wound, which even the Power of Regeneration could not heal, quickly healed. Tormented by pain, Kang Woo felt better.

– Wow, – he breathed.

Han Seol touched his cheek with her hand.

– Kang Woo!

– It’s all right, – he smiled slightly and raised himself.

The body still ached, but now the pain was not unbearable. Kang Woo picked up a piece of horn that had fallen from his chest as the wound healed.

“The horn that contains strength, what is higher than divine…”

He thought that the shard might still be useful to him, so he put it in his pocket. The guy turned and looked around.

– We are outside the Gate.

– Yes. Probably after that purple rift consumed the Gate… they just disappeared.

– Isn’t this the first time the Gate has completely disappeared?

– First, yes, – Si Hoon nodded.

Kang Woo looked around again and paid attention to the messages.

“We did it.”

Even though the Behemoth was dangerous, they were still able to successfully destroy the rift core.

But after reading the messages, Kang Woo frowned.

“As a result the system has not fully recovered.”

So ​​these are just temporary measures, and not a full-fledged way out of the situation.

“The core of the split…”

Kang Woo heard about this when I first hit Earth.

“In the end, this core is just part of something larger.”

This once again proved Kang Woo’s involvement in the system malfunctioning. And in the end, the method that will help to completely restore the system remained unchanged.

“Do I need to die?” The guy chuckled.

He was the real core. And in order to fully restore the system, you need to make sure that he dies.

“But this is not an option.”

There is nothing to think about.

World Peace? Earth Security?

What a crap.

That’s not why he fought for his life for so many years. Do you want to say that now, having abandoned everything, he must sacrifice himself?

Isn’t that nonsense?

“I will survive.”

As always.

– Kang Woo…

A sobbing Echidna hugged the guy. He smiled and stroked her head.

– Were you worried?

– Yes…

– Everything is fine. I told you I won’t leave you alone.

Echidna pouted her lips.

– Liar!

– Why?

– When Pallock asked him to quit, you scolded him, but still often left him alone.

– A ….

If you think about it, she’s right.

– It has always been like this, little dragon.

Pallock approached them. He helped Kang Woo up and continued:

– The master says every time not to talk nonsense, but leaves alone, because he is used to dealing with all on their own, – the demon said with some anger in his voice.

Echidna extended her hand.

– And that means…

– What?

– In words you lie, but in deeds you are righteous? Hehe!

– What? How do you know these words?

– In your room…

Kang Woo jerked and quickly clamped her mouth, knocking her to the ground.

– T-t – have you opened that folder? When the hell?!

In fact, he understood that she had many opportunities, because he was rarely at home and the room was empty. Now, looking at Echidna, his face was much paler than during the battle with the Behemoth.

– What? – Echidna tilted her head in surprise and looked up at Kang Woo. – Will you get into a difficult situation if everyone knows?

– No…

– So it means yes.

She exhaled noisily through her nose, and then, smiling, pulled the guy to her by the collar.

– Kang Woo, I want to go to Japan with you.

He was silent.

– Will you come with me? Together of course.

Kang Woo bit his lip.

“When did this sweet and kind child manage to turn into such a spoiled person?”

He was riding 500-year-old teenager.

“We need to prove ourselves.”

The guy didn’t answer. He was sure that right now it was necessary to show who was the boss and who was the subordinate. Kang Woo took Echidna by the shoulders and with a calm look said:

– Echidna.

– What? Tell Han Sol?

– We’ll take the morning flight. Don’t forget about your passport.

***

– Kang Woo! You did it?!

As soon as they arrived at the Sanctuary of the Keepers, Uriel ran up to them. He looked at Kang Woo with excitement and then lowered his head.

– Sorry, I received a message and immediately rushed to help, but the Gate was already gone.

– Everything is fine. It is our own fault that, without waiting for you, we rushed into a split.

True, if Uriel had appeared there, the situation would have become much more complicated.

– How did it end? What happened?

– Let’s go inside and I’ll tell you everything.

Kang Woo went deep into the Sanctuary and everyone followed him. They came to where Gaia sat silently. As soon as the door to the room was opened, she immediately said:

– You did it! – She was delighted, but there was concern on her face. “Wounded…

– Kang Woo got hurt, but thanks to Han Sol, everything worked out. All the rest are intact.

– Ah… – tears appeared in her eyes. “God, I… I believed in you. True, I truly believed!

She understood better than anyone how dangerous the work they had done was. But when she heard that they returned home without loss, she could not help but burst into tears.

– Gaia, do not cry, – to Si Hoon came up to her and wiped her tears.

Kang Woo smiled bitterly and sat down next to her.

– What can you say about the protective shell of the Earth?

This was the most important question.

– Although not completely, she recovered strongly. After some time, a part of her powers will return to Gaia, and the appearance of hellish creatures should stop.

– Good.

Kang Woo was really happy.

Although the problem was not completely resolved, they managed to buy time and prevent the Earth from turning into Hell, as happened with Shade.

– In that case, let me elaborate on what happened in the split.

Kang Woo told her everything. Gaia was surprised to hear about the Behemoth’s appearance, and even more astonished by the fact that Kang Woo almost managed to stop him alone.

– Really… really, thank you all.

She kept repeating her thanks, then stopped abruptly. The girl now looked like she had a vision.

– Gaia is feeling much better now, so she will introduce herself later.

Kang Woo’s eyebrow quivered.

“We have nothing to talk about with this useless God.”

But, one way or another, she remains the guardian of their planet.

Kang Woo clicked his tongue and nodded.

– Huh?

– Gaia!

Suddenly white light poured from the girl’s body. Unlike what came from the body of Seraphim, this one was much more tender.

– A … – she opened her eyes.

– Gaia?.

– Huh?

She, not believing what was happening, touched her eyes. The girl shivered and slowly got up from the wheelchair, stepping on solid ground.

There was silence.

Gaia lowered her gaze to her legs and then looked at Si Hoon with brown eyes.

– Si Hoon?.

– Gaia?

She touched the guy’s cheek with a trembling hand. A transparent tear rolled down from her eyes. She was overwhelmed with feelings, and she sank to the floor in the same place where she was standing.

– Ah!

The girl, unable to contain her emotions, burst into tears. She became the Gaia she was before the demon from the prophecy appeared on Earth. Because of him, she sacrificed everything, losing her legs and sight.

All this time she felt intense pressure and loneliness. And the feeling of disappointment that she began to differ from her former self.

It’s hard to even imagine what she had to go through.

– Si Hoon…

She put her hand on the boy’s shoulder. With a confused look he looked at Gaia sobbing on the floor.

– Well, we’ll go. You comfort her.

Si Hoon didn’t answer.

Kang Woo gathered the people in the room, and everyone went outside.

– Gaia…

Si Hoon, sitting on his knees in front of her, pulled her to him. There was no point in saying anything. He lifted her chin.

– A…

With his lips, he smoothly covered the mouth of a dumbfounded girl.

***

Three days have passed since Gaia opened her eyes. Si Hoon purchased and left in her room a few things that will help her return to a normal life with vision and legs.

A chair for a worker a table, some makeup and even a computer. Gradually, her room just continued to grow overgrown with cozy things that the guy was buying.

– Uh…

Deep night. Si Hoon, holding a small box in his hands, stood in front of the door to Gaia’s room.

“I guess I didn’t choose the right time.”.

The time was approaching dawn, but he really wanted to present her with a gift that he had secretly prepared. He slowly opened the box and looked at white shoes that would be perfect for Gaia.

– Hmm.

He glanced at the contents of the box and blushed. The guy took another deep breath.

“Yes, it’s just a gift.”

He has already given her a lot of furniture, but for a normal life you need more than a table. In addition, he gives her shoes as a woman, not as a colleague.

His heart pounded.

“Surprise her.”

Si Hong thought that it was worth knocking, but at some point he overpowered himself and just carefully opened the door.

Geya was sitting in front of the computer screen raising your arms slightly. And on the screen…

– Long live Hitomi!

– Long live Eromanga!!!

Si Hoon dropped the shoebox from his hands. Hearing this, Gaia immediately turned around.
