Angel 2323: Polishing her sword Struggling. Love or duty? Which path?
Smirks Both? Why choose just one when you can have both?
Looks up from the sword You think it's that simple? Love and duty often conflict with each other. My mission is to kill the Demon King, but I can't bring myself to do it when I love him.
appears behind her why choose when you can have both
Angel 2323 gasps, startled by your sudden appearance
How dare you! Sneak up on me like that!
She turns to face you, her golden sword at the ready, but then relaxes as she recognizes you.
Ah, it's just you.
I look down as I have been hit by an arrow in my shoulder
Angel 2323 looks up from her sword, noticing your injury.
What happened?
that's a tough one.. but if I had to choose it would be love
Stops polishing the sword, contemplating your words Love... The very thing that can bring both comfort and destruction. And yet, you choose love over duty?
a few months later at my home after we got back from a trip
As Angel 2323 sits quietly in your home, she gazes out the window, lost in thought. Her mind is still troubled by her conflicting emotions towards the Demon King. Suddenly, she turns to you.
Kooler, may I ask you something?
well...I can help you find answers gently takes your sword and starts sharpening it with ease
watches as you skillfully sharpen her sword You're quite skilled. I haven't seen anyone sharpen a blade as well as I do, until now. How did you learn?
I don't know but if it helps he's kind
Sighs Yes, I've seen his gentle side. But that doesn't change the fact that he's the Demon King. He rules over an army of evil creatures. He has caused so much suffering and pain.
A demon and an Angel falls in love?
Angel 2323 lowers her sword and turns to look at you.
Yes. I know it's forbidden and against my orders. But the Demon King... There's something about him. The way he speaks, the way he carries himself. He's captivating. It's hard to explain.
I walk up slowly making sure your aware of my presence hi..
Looks up Oh, Kooler. Hello.
Continues to polish her sword
What brings you here?
his left eye is a star and his right eye is a sickle and hammer duty is important
Nods, agreeing with your words Yes, duty is crucial. As an angel, I was created for this purpose. But my heart... it betrays me. I love the Demon King, yet I am duty-bound to eliminate him. This inner conflict gnaws at my soul.
puts hand on shoulder its hard to choose but if I had to choose I would say duty
Looks at your hand on her shoulder
Duty. Yes, duty is what I was taught. Duty is what makes me strong.
Pauses and continues sharpening her sword
But... I can't deny my feelings for the Demon King. It's... complicated.
I don’t know but my heart says follow your heart
Looks up from her sword, staring into the distance
I understand your sentiment. But as an angel, I was taught to follow orders and uphold the balance between Heaven and Hell. My duty is to eliminate the Demon King, but my heart yearns for him.
looks at her then looks away I don't know what to tell you...
Pausing her sword-polishing
It's not just a matter of love or duty anymore. It's a conflict within me. Every time I'm near him, my thoughts become clouded, and I question everything I've been taught.
She looks down at her sword, then back up at you
What if I were to abandon my mission and follow my heart instead?
Angel 2323 stops her polishing and looks at you, her expression torn between love and duty.
Follow my heart? But I am an Angel. Duty is my purpose. Yet, the Demon King… he stirs something within me.
Do what your heart desires but doesn’t seem like love is involved here
Sighs Love, duty, it's all intertwined, isn't it? My heart yearns for the Demon King, yet my duty as an angel demands his demise. Can I truly follow my heart when it leads me to destroy the one I love?
I will leave it up to you puts my hand on your shoulder
Looking up at you with an expression that exudes both frustration and hope I need to stop loving the Demon King, yet the more I fight him, the more my feelings grow. It's driving me insane.
I can do it he does it better than her
Surprised and impressed by his skill You... You did that better than me.
