Anyone piloting airplanes ships submarines or anything else that would cause harm if it lost control has been spared But once they arrive at the airport harbor or coast contact is lost
I guess that’s what happened to them
They glanced over at the nearby road
There were a lot of cars on the road but none had gotten into an accident They were all stopped on the side of the road with their shift lever in park their parking brake on and their headlights off Every one of the cars had come to a safe stopand there was a black stain on the inside Not one of the 98% who had disappeared had been attacked
They had all ensured their own safety and chosen for themselves to become black stains
A being was gathering people’s minds – that is the Fruit of Wisdom
What was that thing formed from the boy named Fujita Mutsuki Ange and Lucia had no word to define it An angel and demon like them were familiar with what the human world interpreted as god but not even that god could do this There were of course plenty of things god could do which this being could not but there was one major point in common between him and god
They were revered
No they were loved
The small amount of Adam’s power allowed out by the Serpent’s Eye showed that Adam’s nature was to capture the affections of all women And if Lilith bearer of the other Serpent’s Eye had the opposite nature then she captured the affections of all men Now that they had become one they had created a being that could capture the affections of all humans
It was unclear which one a gay person would be drawn to but as long as they carried the emotion of love they would fall in love with one or the other side of this being Age was not factor A newborn baby and an elderly person breathing their last were no exceptions And once they loved him they lost all ability to resist him
When he asked them to give up their Fruit of Wisdom they would gladly do so and they were willing to let their abandoned body be reduced to mere nutrients – a pile of black flesh They could not defy that being Any who did so would instinctually choose to abandon living But what would happen to the gathered Fruits of Wisdom
They will live forever in the grasp of the one who loves them They will have no thoughts or emotions They will simply be with the one who loves them
Well they must be happy Lucia cackled Thus humanity escaped the age of discord and lived happily ever after in the vat they named Eden
He was clearly making a joke but he also stopped walking
It’s disappointing that Mutsuki chose that woman but if that’s his choice I’ll accept it I’m sure he’ll come for me too eventually But what about you two
He looked to the others
Ange and Machina were hesitant to respond
It was hard to view this as a good thing Something very close to being god had appeared out of nowhere and humanity had been eradicated A hellish scene of a deserted world stained by dark liquid lay before them Their sense of justice told them they needed to put a stop to this But Lucia’s words had greatly shaken them
He had said this was what Fujita Mutsuki wanted
Lilith had no real reason to want this
She was the origin point of all demons and since her name was never seen in human history she must not have done much of anything for thousands of years She had no desire to rule the human world or to eradicate humanity She only wanted to make Adam hers and she had accomplished that
And since that young man was indeed a man it was best to assume Adam’s – that is Mutsuki’s – mind was most strongly in control
And it did seem a lot like Mutsuki to be so oddly thoughtful about not hurting anyone by waiting for people to park their cars or land their airplanes even though he was going to eliminate them anyway This is Fujita ’s answer to the rivalry
He does sometimes take things to an extreme
Their shoulders slumped
This was the biggest reason why FeTUS had not told Mutsuki himself about his role as Adam in the age of rivalry
