Under the night sky, the mountain stood tall and majestic, its dark outline contrasting with the twinkling stars above. The moon's silvery glow casts a gentle light over the rocky slopes, creating an aura of tranquility.
At the peak of the mountain, there was a flat area where a stunningly beautiful woman sat on a tree branch.
Her appearance was doll-like, with flawless porcelain skin and long, black hair that flowed gracefully down her back. She had an air of coldness and pride in her piercing gaze.
The night breeze played with her hair as she looked out at the vast horizon, lost in her thoughts.
Suddenly, her attention shifted, and she turned around swiftly, her sharp eyes scanning the darkness.
There was a hint of intensity in her eyes, like a predator on high alert.
A mont later, a strange phenonon occurred as a black hole ford, and a man wearing a white coat stepped out from its depths.
The beautiful woman lowered her guard.
"How was your evaluation? Is he useful enough for us?" the man asked.
"He's too weak for now." Her voice lacked any hint of excitent or disappointnt, as if she were discussing a mundane topic.
"For now? Oh , so you think he has a lot of potential, "
"At the end of the day, potential is just that – potential," she replied. "But it all ans nothing if he dies prematurely."
"You're too serious as always," he sighed, voicing his observation.
"And you're too easygoing,"she clicked her tongue in annoyance.
"Then what happened after ? Did he accept it?"
"It went as expected," she answered, her cold and prideful deanor unchanged.
Before the man could reply, she spoke again.
"We need to move quickly. I struck a deal with him, so we have to take care of so of the fragnts and capture the beasts guarding it. It shouldn't be too difficult for you,"
"We?" The man raised an eyebrow, a hint of suspicion in his voice. "Why do I get the feeling that you're about to dump all the work on again?"
"I am dumping it all on you. We need to complete our part of the deal if we want to earn his trust," Yuki replied, clarifying her position.
"It's rare for you to follow others' orders. That guy must be pretty impressive. Don't tell you've fallen in love with him at first sight? I an, that guy tends to attract won," the man teased, a playful smirk crossing his face.
"Watch your words, Geju" she warned, her voice cold and commanding.
Without hesitation, she surrounded him with dark flas, a clear indication of her lethal intent.
"I'm just kidding around, " he waved his hand jokingly, trying to lighten the tense atmosphere.
"Stop wasting ti and do your job," she said firmly, extinguishing the dark flas .
Geju feigned a pout, pretending to be put out by her seriousness.
"But I still have a part-ti job to finish," he protested, trying to playfully evade the task at hand.
"You've been on Earth for centuries, and you still like to act and work as a normal human?" Yuki raised her eyebrows in contempt, unable to believe that the person in front of her used to be a Mid God.
Even the god of the underworld used to say that Geju could have easily reached the Peak God standard during the primordial era, so she was having a hard ti accepting his laid-back personality.
Geju responded with a smile, undeterred by her disapproval.
"Don't be like that, Yuki. Sotis, living a normal life is the best," he said calmly.
Yuki scoffed, finding it hard to understand his perspective.
"Normal life is for weaklings. We have power beyond imagination, and yet you choose to waste it on mundane existence," she retorted, her pride as superior being was evident in her words.
"You need to learn how to relax sotis ," Geju's smile remained, and he shook his head gently.
"You know, your father sent you here so you could enjoy your life even for a bit," I think you should take a look at
Yuki's expression changed, a mix of surprise and frustration crossing her features.
"Shut up! No one is supposed to know about my father," she exclaid, clearly flustered by his words.
"Don't worry, we are the only people here. And your secret is safe with ," he assured her.
Yuki's stern deanor softened slightly, but she remained cautious.
"Regardless, you should keep your mouth shut about this. You know what could happen if soone learned about my real identity," she warned, emphasizing the potential consequences.
"Alright," he said, understanding her concerns.
"But I've said this before, you should enjoy a normal life even for a bit . This place is beautiful and filled with fun things to do. It would be too late to enjoy this in the future ," he reminded her.
"Please just mind your own business and just do your job," she answered coldly.
"I can't seem to break through that stubborn head of yours," he sighed in defeat,
With that, he once again summoned a black hole and disappeared, leaving Yuki alone on the mountaintop.
As she gazed at the night sky and the serene mountain landscape, she felt a mont of uncertainty.
Perhaps Geju was right; perhaps she should take the ti to experience normal life, to appreciate the simple joys and wonders that Earth had to offer.
But after a few monts of contemplation, her emotions shifted back once again. The brief respite of considering a normal life was overshadowed by her sense of duty.
"No, I can't just sit around while my father is losing his powers," she muttered to herself, reaffirming her commitnt to the mission at hand.
