The deities

The Villain's Rhapsody: Evolution to godhood.

"Daddy, who is he?"

Isaac feels no malice from him, no. Actually, he feels nothing from him. It's as if he was protected with a spell, that can even block a deity. 'What the fuck? Could it be that this boy is protected by that immature bastard, Dorian? Why?'. Isaac glances at his daughter and answers.

"How should I know, dear? I don't know every human that exists on this planet!"

Isaac smiles as he pats her head. Lilith keeps staring at the boy, as she was intrigued by the feeling he gave her. The boy intrigued her. She felt attracted to him.

"Daddy, can that boy be my friend?"

"Huh? Huh?!?"

Isaac was cautious over that kid. However, the fact that Lilith wants to be a friend with a human shocked him. After humans arrived through a rift to his planet, Lilith began to despise humanity.

"D-daddy?"

Isaac became really excited. The fact that Lilith hated humanity, worried him. 'What if she grows up and decides to wipe them out?'. He kneels, puts his hand on her shoulder, and smiles.

"Of course he can. Just befriend him!"

"H-how?"

"Huh?"

Isaac freeze up. He was not expecting this question. He couldn't give her answer, as he himself never had a chance to befriend anyone. The only person he befriended was Elisabeth. So his experience in human friendships was basically non-existent. Isaac gently pushes her towards Lucas.

"Uh, just talk to him. Go on."

"Yes! I will do my best!"

Lilith runs up to him and tries to say hello. She smiles and waves her hand.

The moment Lucas notices her, he freezes. 'Oh shit, not good! C-can I stop the time and escape? M-maybe? W-what should I do? N-no, Isaac noticed me as well...If I used time magic... He will probably force the answers out of me'. He looks at her with a frown on his face.

"Please, don't talk to me!"

Lilith was shocked. No one ever talked to her that way. Her father was always spoiling her and pets always obeyed her. This is the first time someone talked down on her. She pouts and tries to stop her tears. Unsuccessfully.

"H-huh? Huh?!? Fine!"

She gets so angry, tears start flowing down her cheek. Lucas feels a bit guilty, but he says nothing else to her and walks away.

She runs to her father. She hugs him and cries. Isaac looks at her sad face. This was probably the first time, he was so enraged! His eyes start glowing. 'I WILL FUCKING KILL THAT BRAT!!!' Suddenly, he notices something. The time, began to slow down and even the air freezes. It was hard for him to move because even the air felt almost solid. Suddenly he hears an echoing voice singing.

"And I wonder where you are. And I wonder what you do! Are somewhere feeling lonely...~"

In the sky appears an anomaly and it distorts the surrounding colors. Soon the anomaly gets a human form. Original Lucas. Or should I say, Dorian? He slowly levitates to the ground and laughs.

"kekeke! Long time no see, buddy!"

"You! What is the biggest nuisance the universe is doing in the human world?"

Dorian looks at Isaac. He puts his hand over his mouth and giggles as if he was a girl from animated movies. "Kekeke! I came here to save myself silly! You were on a verge of killing me!"

"Y-you mean, that kid... Is you? Aren't you afraid, that I might use the kid as a way of getting rid of you?"

Dorian begins to float. He poses as if he was sitting in the lotus position. He puts his chin on his palm and laughs.

"Of course not! Even if you did, before I disappeared, I would still have more than enough time to kill Lilith. We wouldn't want our dear Lilith to die, now would we?"

Hearing this threat Isaac becomes furious. His eyes shine, and the air around him disappears as he walks towards Dorian. However, Dorian snaps his fingers, and the air returns. As solid as before.

"Oh silly boy, I wouldn't kill Lilith without a reason! You know that! And stop with the killing intent, you can't kill me. Of course, I can't kill you either. Only someone with the ability to control time can kill me. And only someone with the ability of creation can kill you! Haha. The irony. Divine affinities, do not negate each other. Only the same affinity can do that! "

Isaac looks at him with an irritated expression. However, he knows that Dorian is right. Only the same divine affinity can defeat a god. "Alright. Let me ask you one thing. Why are you here? What are you planning?"

"Why would anyone do anything? Because of boredom! Unlike you, I lived for thousands of years as a deity. I have everything that a person can desire. Due to boredom, I destroyed this same world we're standing on hundreds of times. But, it's not enough. I need a challenge! You know, just like those animated villains who get bored."

"This does not explain anything. No. Wait. Are you... Planing on fighting yourself?"

Lucas lands on his feet. He slowly walks towards Isaac and claps.

"Ding ding ding! Exactly! As there is no other deity who rules over time, I can only challenge myself! kekeke~"

"But, are you not afraid, that current Dorian will be different than you? Personality-wise I mean. If he ends up having a too different a personality from you... You will disappear..."

Dorian pretends to be worried as he talks. He lowers his head and pretends to think.

"Y-yes... I never thought of that..."

"Are you serious now? I knew you were stupid, but not that stupid"

Dorian sighs and puts a palm on his face.

"Dude, of course, I knew that. That's why I will watch over him. I will make him as rotten and as evil as I am! kekeke~ Of course, I will also be watching you, my dear friend. Kekeke! No messing with my dear Lucas. So no trying on redeeming the kid? Okie Dokie?~ And yes, his name on planet Draxnar is Lucas, not Dorian.~"

"Humpf, fine. Let's make a divine contract. Neither of us will mess with the youth. Is that okay? I don't really trust you, dude."

"Okie dokie!~ Time to bleed! kekeke~"

The two deities cut their hands. They give each other a handshake. Their eyes shine as the tattoo symbolizing the moon appears on their palm.

"Now, neither of us can mess with the youth, kekeke~ Even we wouldn't survive breaking the divine contract!~ I am leaving. Bye-bye for now! I'll be watching you!~"

Dorian said his last words as he turns transparent and fades away. Time slowly begins to move. And Isaac sighs. When time completely resumes, Isaac hears a cheeky voice singing in his head. 'I'll be watching you!~'

Isaac frowns. 'That bastard. I really hate that guy! I wonder, what if Lilith actually tamed the kid? What if he becomes a decent person?!? Just watch Dorian, my Lilith has a devilish charm! Haha.'

He looks down and realizes that Lilith is still sad. He kneels and begins to comfort her.

"It's alright dear, I will ask the principal to put the two of you in the same class"

*Exactly one hour later in the classroom*

"Class, let me introduce a new transfer student… "

Lilith was looking around the class and found Lucas. Lucas buries his face in his hands the moment he feels Lilith's gaze. She frowns and walks towards the boy who sits near him. The teacher calls for her, but Lilith just ignores her and walks towards Lucas.

"H-hey, Lilith? You need to introduce yourself!"

The boy seeing that Lilith came to him blushes and smiles. Lilith points her finger at him and frowns.

"You! This is my seat now. Get lost."

"H-huh?"

"Did you not hear of what I just said?"

Lilith gets angry. Malice within humans makes her angry. However, when she felt the lust within the boy grow towards her after she came to him, she got even angrier. Her eyes grow cold and shine in gold. The moment the teacher saw that she hurriedly try to calm the situation down. She knows that Lilith's background is a powerful one, and she herself is an anomaly on the level that can rival the strongest people in this kingdom.

"Christopher, go find another seat!"

"H-HUH? But teacher!"

"Do you want me to call your parents?"

"Tsk."

Christopher stands up and walks towards the only seat available, the seat near the window. Lilith shows a smug expression towards Lucas. However. Lucas just smacks his lips and turns his head away from her.

"Tsk."

Lilith was at a loss for words. This damn human dares to humiliate her like that! Not a chance! He WILL be her friend. So during the time for the class, she kept annoying poor Lucas.

"What's your name?"

"..."

"What's your name?"

"..."

"What's…"

"Teacher, she keeps talking! And I know you saw that, why don't you stop her?!?"

The teacher did see Lilith talking, however, there's nothing she can do about it. The principal warned her that she is to be treated like royalty. No. Even with bigger respect. Whoever this girl and her father are if the fight between her and some royalty breaks out. Always take her side. She is more important than royalty. 'What a headache'

"Shut up Lucas. You're in the class."

"H-Huh?"

"Hehe."

Lilith got a smug expression on her face. She kept staring at Lucas, who was now red from the embarrassment. Lucas didn't want to have anything to do with this girl. He knew, that she is destined to be with him. However, Lucas is destined to die or become a tormented god. So as long as he can change his and Lilith's fate, he might have a chance of survival. He leans on the table and closes his eyes. Suddenly he feels someone poking his waist. He was ticklish so he giggles.

"Hihi."

"Oh?"

Suddenly, Lilith's facial expression turns naughty.
