Chapter 58 What God Feels
"Mumma, mumma, does God get angry when we study science?"
This question made the child's mother awkwardly smile as she didn't know what to say to her toddler.
Whatever she said to her now would stick with her forever and she may end up joining one or the other faction from the two fighting in front.
She was in a really tense situation, but then she heard a gentle voice saying,
"Sweetie, why would God get angry?"
The mother turned to her toddler and saw a beautiful silver-haired young lady speak to her toddler while squatting down to her level.
The little girl tilted her head in confusion.
"…because we are doing what we aren't shopposhed to?" The toddler said cutely.
The mother sighed at her child's curiosity. Her little one would ask thousands of questions everyday and she was starting to run out of answers.
Although being a mother, she had taught her child to not talk to strangers, her toddler was currently with her and the stranger also seemed really harmless and nice, so the lady just let Melissa talk with her child.
Melissa's expression turned really gentle and she said in a soft tone, "…but God made you, me, mumma right there, and everything else, right?"
The mother's expression softened up knowing this young lady was aware of her presence.
The toddler nodded her head in innocence.
Melissa smiled and continued, "now sweetie, imagine mumma made cookies for everybody…"
The toddler had a big smile on her face. "I love khuukeez!"
Melissa chuckled. "I love them too."
'So she likes cookies...' Alex, standing a bit behind his wife, made a mental note to buy cookies on their way home.
"…so… if mumma made cookies and you like them…" Melissa said it in a slow and easy to understand manner. "…do you think she'll be angry if you try to search for its recipe and know what's within it?"
The toddler looked at her mother, who just shook her head with a smile.
This made the little girl smile happily and say to Melissa, "No!"
"See… in the same way… why will God be angry if you are just trying to see what he created?" Melissa finally explained it properly.
"Oh!" The little girl finally got it!
She turned to her mother and said, "mumma, god is not angry at us!"
The mother smiled and patted her daughter's head. "No, sweetie, he isn't."
"There we go—"
"WRONG!" A man with a pot belly, walking towards the mother and the daughter yelled.
"I heard everything you said from there and boy oh boy… you couldn't be any more wrong!" The man said.
Melissa looked at him and asked calmly, "…you are?"
"I am her husband and this child's father." The man said in a slight annoyed tone. "Get away from my child and stop brainwashing her with your science things!"
"God forbids science and that's the eternal truth!"
Melissa sighed at this. "And who said that to you?"
"Huh? Are you stupid or what? It's the holy books, they have everything in them. You need to have brains to read them." The man sneered.
Melissa smiled and looked at the lady behind the man. "I wish you good luck with your motherhood. Though, it'll be for the best if you raise your cute child without such an ignorant man."
"YOU! WHAT THE F—"
Alex interrupted the man by getting in front of him, shielding Melissa from whatever harm he could do to her.
"Touch even a single hair of my wife, and I'll ensure you end up seeing your God in the next instant." Alex said softly so that the toddler behind doesn't hear it.
Alex seemed like a tall mountain standing in front of the man. The man wanted to punch Alex in the face for his audacity to threaten him, but looking at the muscles on Alex, he gave up those thoughts.
He instead turned around and slapped his wife. "HOW MANY TIMES I'VE TOLD YOU TO NOT TALK TO STRANGERS!"
"IT SEEMS YOU HAVEN'T LEARNT YOUR LESSON FROM LAST TIME!"
The man held the woman's hand and dragged her away from Alex and Melissa.
Alex sighed looking at them and shook his head. He could stop someone from harming his wife but he could not do anything about people's personal matters and their relationships.
Alex turned around to see if Melissa was doing okay.
What ended up greeting him was a big frown on her face.
Alex took a step forward and hugged her. He rubbed her back and said, "It happens. We can't do anything about their abusive relationships."
"Oh, no, darling. I very much can." Melissa said with the frown still on.
While continuing to hug Alex, she looked up in the sky and said softly, "Nef…"

Somewhere far in the cosmos, there lay a dwelling suffused with unbridled destruction and chaos.
A realm where the very essence of disorder hung heavy in the air as tempestuous storms swirled amidst fractured light.
Rivers of molten lava snaked through the landscape, their fiery currents carving paths of destruction. Towering cliffs and chasms loomed, creating an otherworldly and foreboding atmosphere.
Amidst this maelstrom and the monolithic structures, now ruins, there rested an ancient ebony throne, seated upon which was a black-haired, crimson-eyed Goddess who seemed to be the very embodiment of beauty and menace.
She wore a black dress, it being a cascade of shadow and flame, woven together through disaster's dance with scarlet streaks and silver threads.
Poised on her throne, she traced patterns as if controlling destruction itself. Her crimson eyes, containing ancient wisdom and merciless intent, gazed with an enchanting mix of detachment and curiosity at the mortals below, promising ruin and revelation.
At this very instant, the Goddess's ears perked up and her crimson eyes focused on a certain place down in the cosmos.
There she saw, a divine silver-haired being, hugging a majestic black-haired person, both exuding auras of complete dominance and suppression.
The Goddess's crimson eyes lit up and she exclaimed internally, 'DARLING!'
However, before she could do anything, she heard a cold voice that said:
"Nef…"

A/N: In Chapter 22: Nature's Resistance, it was mentioned that nature resists when one tries to dwell into its secret and that one shouldn't try to do it as there are consequences.
It is to be noted that what was in that chapter and what is in this chapter shouldn't be mixed.
This chapter talks about what God feels, that chapter talks about what happens when you do something you aren't asked to.
Think of it like:
Your mom asked you to not eat the snacks meant for guests but your dad gives a go ahead signal.
This then leads to great ass whooping from your mom, but hey, at least the cookies were tasty!
