Type-Moon Simulation: Starting with Conquering a Greek Goddess!-Chapter 90 - : Reflecting on the Initial Wish in One’s Heart

Efforts were made to handle the aftermath of the battlefield.

The Pope of the Holy Church commanded 128 cardinals.

Among the cardinals, who were the highest authorities, the most influential was Cardinal Laurentis, who was considered the next Pope.

And his grandson was Mario.

His official position in the church was the Acting Priest Supervisor.

"However, you've really done it. After the Seventh Ancestor and the Twenty-fifth Ancestor, you've taken down the newly appointed Nineteenth Ancestor and the Twenty-second Ancestor. With such eff, I doubt the old men in the church would dare to say anything. What are your thoughts as the victor, Moran?"

"My thoughts? Rather than that, there's something I'd like to request from the Papal Office. I plan to let the surviving civilians in the town return to their normal lives."

Moran looked at the civilians who had been displaced after the disaster.

At this moment, they were still lost.

"Ha! According to the rules, after experiencing such things, they would only be sealed away by the church as contaminants. But if you, who are under the jurisdiction of the Burial Agency, speak up, I doubt anyone would object."

"I just don't want Elesia to bear too much guilt. Although I have no faith in the church, I won't let someone who has been with me for two years end up being sealed away."

Moran's tone was quite calm.

Mario couldn't help but show a look of admiration in his eyes.

But when he saw the princess sisters playing not far away, his expression immediately fell again.

That was the real trouble.

[Later, not only did the Acting Priest arrive]

[Another member of the Burial Agency also came here. After the disaster relief, she walked up to you]

[She was the third member of the Burial Agency]

[Nun Kiara Kissyoin]

"Kiara, you didn't come here just for disaster relief, did you?"

[You knew this nun quite well]

[She had joined the Burial Agency at some point. Although she was considered by the world to be a Bodhisattva or a saint, you knew her true nature]

[Although she had the intention to save the world]

[She was far more than that]

"Father Moran, you're too biased against me. Although I do have other things to do besides disaster relief, I truly care about these victims with good intentions."

Kiara clasped her hands together and smiled.

Her holy demeanor seemed flawless.

[You knew that this nun, who had infiltrated the Burial Agency, had long since fallen into demonization and had gained higher-dimensional senses]

[In this dimension, she was practically omnipotent]

[However, in this dimension, she had not taken the final step]

"But, you're right. You and I have different perspectives, so it's natural to have such cautious thoughts."

"It's good that you understand."

"Hehe, yes. However, I've seen many things. I wonder if Father Moran would listen to me?"

[Kiara's words piqued your interest]

[And so, you began to talk]

"Hmm... Rather than discussing this, I'll tell my story first. Even after gaining omnipotence, I'm still bound by matter and the universe. Are you curious about my current state?"

"Kiara, what are you trying to say?"

Moran looked into Kiara's wave-like eyes.

She didn't seem to be looking at him.

Rather, she was looking at something more fundamental.

"I just want to say that I was fortunate enough to save all living beings and ascend to the throne of the Demon Heaven. But there, I was just a novice, a piece of trash.

Throughout my life, I've been trying to obtain the Eye of Perception. But in this process, I've not only seen the truth of the world but also a more insignificant version of myself."

Kiara spoke in a soft tone.

As if she were telling a story unrelated to herself.

"Looking down like this, it's as if I'm constantly striving to understand a more miserable version of myself. So, I began to wonder, why must I change? That's why I'm here.

No matter how small the world is, the me living in this world is more valuable than the me over there."

[You understood what Kiara was saying]

[She was referring to the Kiara Sessyoin who became the Beast of Humanity in another world, crowned as the King of Beasts, and the more ordinary version of herself who did not become a Beast]

[Now, she was exposing her true self to you]

[With complete honesty and directness]

[Those eyes, capable of seeing through dimensions and worlds, were now looking at you with pity and concern]

"Father Moran, my eyes have seen the color of your soul. It's pitiful, lamentable. As if you've experienced the suffering of the Avici Hell For a human, this is too cruel."

[Kiara sincerely conveyed this to you]

[With a vision different from ordinary people, she saw]

[She had never seen such a scarred soul before. The moment she saw it, she felt she couldn't ignore it]

[Thus, it made her particularly concerned]

[Why your soul would show such a color, as if you had walked through hell]

"The reason... I've experienced a long time, and the pain has been etched into my soul. Even now, I can't forget it.

I've thought about the past. If it were a normal person, they might have given up after experiencing such suffering once. There's nothing to blame; it's only natural."

Moran didn't deny Kiara's words.

Rather, as someone who had experienced it firsthand.

He was the most qualified to say this.

"Hehe, precisely because I know enough, and because I've gained too much, I can feel the helplessness more deeply than anyone else. In a way, Father Moran, you and I have similarities."

"I don't deny that in terms of knowing enough."

"Oh? Then, could you tell me about the rest..."

Kiara showed a surprised expression.

She rarely had such conversations with others.

Rather, there were very few people in this world who could share her perspective.

Moran happened to be one of them.

"I haven't given up."

"Haven't given up? You mean, you're still going to keep fighting, even after realizing your own insignificance?"

"Yes, I can't give up. Even if I wanted to, I wouldn't allow it. This isn't just for myself."

Moran smiled bitterly and shook his head.

He still remembered the blessing filled with love and trust from Artemis when facing the thunder of the great god.

Even at this point, he still cared about the Crimson Moon.

He still wanted to see that foolish woman's smile.

At this point, even he wanted to mock himself, like a stubborn child who refuses to give up.

Although he hadn't shed any so-called tears.

He was already covered in wounds.

It was not the kind of tenacity a human should have, to the point where even the great god Zeus doubted his humanity.

"I still want to strive. Even if there's only a sliver of possibility, I want to try. Like a tyrant who desires to pluck the moon from the sky, no matter how unreasonable, I want to give it a shot."

Moran slowly clenched his fist.

As if to say that the fire in his heart had not yet extinguished.

As long as this flesh and soul had not completely decayed, he would continue to throw himself into this eternal battlefield.

"...This is really... I'm at a loss for words..."

Kiara showed a helpless smile.

As if she had seen a child who proposed an unconventional idea but was still stubbornly moving forward.

It was both heartbreaking and admirable.

Knowing that the path awaiting him was filled with pain and sorrow, yet wanting to praise his unyielding will.

It was dazzling, like a soul shining like gold.

"Love makes one give their all, and infatuation grants salvation.

I've learned a lot. After witnessing your resolve, it would be too presumptuous of me to try to dissuade you."

Kiara's expression showed a hint of respect.

After recognizing her own insignificance, she chose to give up.

But the man before her was different.

Even after realizing his own helplessness and insignificance, he still embraced everything and continued to throw himself into the flames.

The two had chosen completely different paths.

It wasn't a matter of which was better.

Simply, the paths they walked were different.

"Kiara, you didn't choose to transform in this world. This will of yours, in my eyes, is something that would never lose to the Beast who succumbed to pleasure and indulged in self-love."

"I'm honored by your praise. Having such a conversation with you, Father Moran, has been truly refreshing. Just this conversation alone makes my trip here worthwhile."

[In a way, you two were kindred spirits]

[Being able to have such a deep discussion with you, Kiara was the first]

[The conversation was very relaxed]

[You felt a weight lifted off your shoulders]

[It could only be said that Kiara, with her savior qualities, was truly remarkable to be able to look into someone's soul so directly]

"Father Moran, I won't belittle you. But I still want to ask you to listen to this little woman's heartfelt words—

Although the life one experiences is often very cruel, if you feel tired, you might want to look back at the initial wish in your heart. Even if you rest for a while, I doubt anyone would blame you. Because the only one who has the right to blame you is yourself.

I hope you won't tire yourself out too much. Otherwise, even the most precise machine will eventually break down."

What Kiara wanted to say was very simple.

She was speaking from her own experience.

[Later, Kiara bowed and bid you farewell]

[Once again, she radiated the brilliance of a savior, guiding others in the disaster relief efforts]

"Ah, I guess she taught me a lesson..."

Moran couldn't help but mutter to himself.

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.

However, he didn't feel any resentment.

Instead, his heart felt much clearer.

Looking in the direction where the noise was still coming from

There was Mario, who was extremely troubled, while Arcueid and Altrouge were still filled with tension.

Looking at this troublesome scene,

What you felt was tranquility.

"The only one who can truly punish me... is myself... Can I rest a little in this life..."

Moran murmured in a daze.

He had experienced nearly ten life simulations, just like Roa, living through multiple lives.

Especially the nearly three thousand years of obsession as a True Ancestor.

He was so numb that he couldn't even feel tired anymore.

"Well, let's take it one step at a time..."

You gazed at the faint morning sunlight

A new day was about to begin

Perhaps, as Kiara had said, you had indeed been too exhausted on this path until now.

However, you didn't feel regretful.

There were still many problems to solve in the future, such as the arrangements for Elesia, the various issues with Altrouge and Arcueid, and your life as a priest from now on.
