Two lights in the darkness
EP 2. Hope for Humanity
제우스
It's Zeus.
루케온
...?
Luceon was bewildered by the completely unexpected answer.
And this strange darkness is not enough, Zeus, the very Zeus who is called the king of the gods?
루케온
...Stop talking nonsense and reveal your identity quickly!! If you touch even one finger of my mother's, I won't let you off easy!!!
제우스
...ah,
제우스
I guess you can't see me now.
Exactly-!!
루케온
Uh... ugh...!!
루케온
Eww!!!!
Zeus snapped his fingers, and in an instant, Luceon was lifted into the air.
Luceon, who had temporarily entered the space created by Zeus, was finally able to see Zeus' face when the darkness cleared.
제우스
...now,
"Can you see me?"
루케온
...!!!
Luceon blinked several times in surprise when he saw Zeus revealing his true form.
제우스
...
루케온
...My... My Zeus...
루케온
I'm so sorry I didn't notice you...!!! I just thought it was someone's prank!!
Luceon, who had finally grasped the situation, bowed his head before Zeus' feet.
루케온
Please forgive me...!!
제우스
Lift your head.
루케온
Ha... but...!!
제우스
He told me to raise my head.
루케온
...yes...
At Zeus's words, Luceon raised his head and barely looked at Zeus again.
A tall figure, incomparable to his human self, with gorgeous blond hair and flashy clothes,
And even the lightning, the symbol of Zeus.
제우스
Listen carefully.
제우스
The reason I came to you is,
제우스
Because only you can turn this world around.
루케온
Yes? What is that...
제우스
Humans have been tainted by the disaster. Only you and one other human remain as they were before.
제우스
If you find that human being hidden somewhere in this world and bring him back, this darkness will end.
루케온
......
제우스
You are the hope of humanity.
Luceon, who had suddenly become humanity's hope, was extremely bewildered.
루케온
Are you saying... that I have to find that person?
루케온
Someone who I don't even know where is hidden...?
제우스
Haha, did you think I would let you go without saying anything?
루케온
Then what...
제우스
It's a cave.
제우스
Somewhere in the deepest part of the cave, there will be a human being who shines.
루케온
...cave...
제우스
And take this.
루케온
What is this?
What Zeus put in Luceon's hand was a small torch.
제우스
There will come a time when you will inevitably need light. Then, I will grant you the ability to use this torch only ten times.
제우스
Well then, good luck.
루케온
My... My Zeus!!!!
루케온
Zeus!!!!
Boom-!!!
루케온
Ugh...
Before I knew it, Zeus and the light had vanished, leaving only pitch-black darkness before my eyes. I felt around, feeling my way around, and it seemed to be the floor near the bed where my mother had been.
루케온
Uh... Mom?
루케온
Mother, aren't you there?!
Luceon, who came to his senses, quickly looked for his mother, and luckily was able to grab her hand while she was lying on the bed.
"Lukeon...? Is that you?"
루케온
...That's right, Mother.
"...ha..."
"Do you know how surprised I was when you suddenly disappeared...? Where on earth did you go?"
루케온
...I don't know about that either.
루케온
but...
"...?"
루케온
......
Come to think of it... what will happen to my mother again?
I may have to stay alone in this darkness for a few days...
"What's going on... huh?"
"Was it really Zeus..?"
루케온
...
okay.
I am not in a position to disobey God's command,
If this darkness, this disaster, could be ended by my own hands.
I'm sure your mother will understand.
루케온
...
루케온
Mom, I think I'll have to leave home for a few days.
"What? What do you mean?"
루케온
...Zeus commanded me.
루케온
End this darkness with my own hands.
"You can do that? How could you...!"
"No, why would Zeus give you such an order in the first place!! No, no!!"
루케온
...Mom, I know you're embarrassed.
루케온
But it's not normal for me to suddenly disappear and fall out of thin air. And...
"And what?"
루케온
...
루케온
The torch... remains.
"torchlight...?"
In Luceon's hand, he held the torch Zeus had given him. He couldn't see it with his eyes, but he could feel it, confident it was the same object.
"...How did it happen... How did it happen like this..."
"Haa... Are you really saying you have to go?"
루케온
...yes.
"......"
"Yeah... can I stop you?"
루케온
...I'm sorry, Mother.
"Don't be sorry to me. It's all God's will."
"Please take care of yourself and come back soon."
루케온
...
루케온
Yes, Mother.
Meanwhile, Zeus, who had returned to Olympus, summoned another god.
제우스
Are you here?
"It's been a while."
헤파이스토스
Zeus.
