The Hero Disciple Is Back - Chapter 88
87. The Master, without even knowing it,
The Celestials Silphid and Elena left the heavens.
This was because the Celestials had completely surrendered to the White Dragon Rhea. Therefore, there had to be a Celestial who would always be by their side and assist them, just like the Celestials of the past had done to the gods. That role was filled by the youngest of the remaining Celestials, Elena, and the youngest, Sylphid.
“Prepare well.”
“Of course.”
However, the remaining celestials were not idle. They had decided to prepare for the coming war according to the orders of Rhea, the new god they had chosen to serve.
The two of them were not only there to assist Leah, but also to open the gates of heaven when necessary and allow the celestials to go straight to war.
When the warrior of infinite regress worked so hard, the celestials would listen with one ear and let it go out the other… .
When a being they could worship as a god appeared and gave such an order, they prepared to fight without hesitation, risking their lives.
For Sera, who had to endure all kinds of stress against the celestials who were neither complete allies nor enemies, this was a situation where she wanted to run wild with her holy sword… However, since the celestials had pledged to serve her with their lives, her daughter Leah… she decided to let it go.
In any case, Silph and Elena remained by Rhea’s side as her assistants and as a means of communication with the heavens.
“It’s okay to follow me, but don’t be rude to Dad. Okay?”
“…yes.”
“Okay?”
“All right!”
A warrior who is as fearsome as the ruthless Demon King, and a human who claims to be the guardian of the white dragon that they have decided to worship as a new god… .
Although they did not feel any resistance to the idea of acknowledging and worshipping humans as beings superior to them, the two celestials had no choice but to bow their heads and accept the words of the god so firmly.
‘What kind of person is he…?’
Although only Archangel Lyella had proper experience with dragons, the celestials lived longer than humans, and their knowledge of dragons was incomparable to that of humans, who regarded dragons as legends and lost most of their records.
That’s why they knew so well. How perfect the dragon race is, and how proud they are. That’s why they don’t bow their heads easily. The celestials bow their heads to the gods without hesitation and put everything down, but the dragons are a race that doesn’t bow their heads even to the gods. But that race… . And even the white dragon Rhea, who they saw as a new god, respects and follows humans as their parents… .
From the perspective of the Celestials, Silph and Elena, they couldn’t help but feel something that was difficult to explain. However, they didn’t dare to say anything about it. There was no way that a Celestial could meddle in something that the gods had decided. ‘If God says so, then so be it.’ That was the natural standard and common sense for the Celestials.
They were born that way in the first place.
Because that was the purpose for which the gods created this race.
‘… In some ways, they are also pitiful guys.’
Leah thought about that too.
To the extent that they were tools to swing according to their words as they wished, the gods cherished the celestials and at the same time tried to make them seem like a special race as much as possible. That way, other races would be able to use them when needed. Therefore, the gods thoroughly managed the number of celestials. If there were many celestials and they formed factions, there was a possibility that they would cause an undesirable situation for the gods who were loyal to them.
‘… The more you know about these guys called God, the more delicious it tastes.’
It was something that the White Dragon Rhea already knew as dragon knowledge, but when dealing with the celestials, she couldn’t help but think even more negatively about the gods.
‘I understand why the dragons did that….’
With the knowledge of dragons and the realization of the world through her own eyes, Leah could not help but understand why other dragons lived so indolently and chose self-destruction. In the end, dragons were nothing more than cleaners to deal with the mistakes of the gods. They were no different from the celestials who were created to become the hands and feet of the gods. That was why they could not accept the value of their own existence. They could not accept it. That was why they chose to destroy themselves.
The perfect life form that the gods had declared was destroying itself. Since nothing could destroy the absoluteness of the gods as much as that, the dragons chose to disappear without hesitation.
‘So it’s ironic.’
The last Dragon Lord, she had said that she had left the chance for Rhea to be born.
【The gods may have been the beginning of everything, but the ending was never theirs to handle. And the thing they least expected was humans.】
The reason why humans live shorter lives than any other race, have fewer characteristics than any other race, and have nothing to boast about is simple. It was because the gods had no great expectations of humans in the first place. They did not create humans with great significance in the first place. However, because of this, humans have always created results that the gods did not anticipate. Many special races that the gods created in the beginning have disappeared, but humans have never disappeared in any history.
And in the end, the gods made a holy sword as their last gamble and gave the position of warrior to a human. And in the end, the human succeeded in sealing the Demon King. What other special races that they were so proud of, and even the gods, could not do, the human did.
And in the end, the most powerful force capable of fighting the Demon King today has become human. Of the special races that the gods were so proud of, only a few remain, and only humans are preparing at this moment to protect the world.
It couldn’t help but be ironic.
The dragons, the supreme race that the gods were so proud of, chose the path of extinction on their own, and the celestials that they trusted so much fell into decline due to the restrictions placed on them by the gods.

The gods did not expect it
Only humans today are willing to fight to protect what the gods have left behind.
Nothing could be more ironic and bizarre than this.
‘The humans actually sat and prayed that the gods would give them hope for tomorrow.’
It is the very definition of chaos and confusion.
Could there be a world more bizarre and bizarre than this?
‘But that’s what makes it fun.’
The fate of the world is extended by the races that the gods least expected. There is no ending that denies the absoluteness of the gods as much as this. And that is what the Demon King would wish for.
That’s why he must have given human warriors a chance several times.
The ending of destroying the world with one’s own hands is nothing more than making the Demon King’s destiny given by the gods come true. In the end, the moment the Demon King completely cleanses the world, he proves that he is truly a puppet of the gods. That is why the Demon King made the human warriors regress infinitely.
‘In the end, it’s all because of the gods.’
Everything is thanks to the gods
It’s all because of the gods.
If everything is thanks to the gods, then it would be natural to say that everything is due to the gods.
♧♧♧
Celestials Silphid and Elena couldn’t help but doubt their eyes.
They are celestials
The gods granted the celestials many special abilities for their own convenience, including the ability to see souls. So it was only natural that the two celestials could see what the wandering god and the saintess could see.
“I see. Sarah’s new friends?”
“Yeah! I’ll be here for a bit!”
“Hmm. I guess we’ll have to find a separate space where the two of us can stay.”
“Huh? I don’t think you have to go that far?”
“If they are Sarah’s friends, then of course I have to prepare something for them since they are guests.”
Elena couldn’t help but swallow dryly in tension.
‘That’s a human?’
It was brilliant.
It was so brilliant that it was hard to open my eyes.
Elena had never seen such a brilliant soul in her life. Even among the celestials who boasted of their greatness, and even among the saints and saintesses chosen by the gods, she had never seen a soul with such a brilliant light. And the same was true of Sylph, who had lived a little longer than Elena.
They expected that he would not be an ordinary human, since he was said to be the guardian of two incredible beings that the Celestials could not do anything about… but they had never imagined that this type of human would appear before them.
‘Let’s not mess around.’
‘You shouldn’t be so rude.’
Jade didn’t do anything, but the Celestials took care of instilling military discipline.
Thanks to the warrior Sera and the white dragon Rhea, the celestials had learned clearly that there were some people they should not mess with.
