Chapter 12- The Heavenly Walking Painting

Chapter 12- The Heavenly Walking Painting

Feb 20, 2022

Minutes already passed.

But before these "minutes" had passed, the deity had introduced herself again as the boy also explained to the puppy what happened to him while it was gone.

So after everything was taken care of, they began to walk.

------------------------------
A woman nonchalantly showing her whole clear white skin to the nearby surrounding is presently walking on the sidewalk of the streets.

And this woman, as if she's in her prime of her 20s for the young goddess-like beauty she currently has, happened to be a sea deity as well.  

If to further simplify her current "predicament", she is just walking while she's naked. Butt-naked, to be exact. 

Also, she may have "realized" it at some point, but she really "didn't care" about the other people who can now see her due to her being in a human form. 

What I meant by "other people" are the dead humans wandering around the place while staring and passing through her.

But if according to the human deity herself, it's just that she "doesn't" even think about the minds of anyone who stares at her, except for the boy, that is.

I mean, it's not even that she wants to hide her whole body from the boy, it's that she's just been staring at him and his body too much that her hands are in her cheeks residing in her red face and steaming head.  

Wait. I forgot. How about the reason why "others" could now on see her and her splendid model body? 

Others include the puppy who is also walking beside the boy who happens to be in-between the puppy at the right side while the deity is at the left side. To be more precise about it, the three of them are walking with a line abreast pattern.

Anyways. This as well is thanks to a certain chaotic past event of hers with a miserable contempt ending. 

When the six small moons became butterflies in the sea deity's expanded belly, she finally looked at the last big one still with her unstoppable hunger. But unluckily, a burst of brimming brilliant light interrupted the deity's view as one of the heavens began cracking a large part of the vast sky. And there, a gigantic golden hand reached the sea deity, grabbing her body and throwing her to the greatest possible extent. 

With that, she was banished from her home which is the ocean she wholeheartedly protected. And because she's not in the range of the sea's aura acting-barrier anymore, a fluctuation of her physical-spiritual existence happened, forbidding her from going close to any seas anymore. Since then, she also began suffering an increased deduction of her origin power because she hasn't protected her home, therefore her limit got lower and lower as time went by. Because her power is weakening, she can't make use of some commands she had like turning herself into a human despite being perceivable by none. 

But now is different, because stage .5 vessels are currently staring at her naked human body as she walks carelessly, despite being a Stage 1 vessel. And the beings which were talked about happened to be some passerby humans and the Shiba Inu puppy. 

Except for the Shiba Inu puppy that had already moved on from staring at the deity's body because it had already seen a body that it believes to be prettier than hers and the boy which hadn't really cared in the first place, some passerby dead humans sure are taking the time of their "unending" afterlife by staring directly at the deity's body.

For further explanation, while the three of them are currently walking, despite the deity's body always being stared at, most dead humans had already seen enough naked bodies. Well, how could they not when they are dead and can literally do whatever they want? 

It's like this, to be more precise. Despite being in the afterlife already; being ghosts, the dead can still do most of the things from where they were still alive. But of course, they can't interfere in living reality, which has a lower-dimensional level than what they now have. 

And yes, one of what they could still do is to remove their clothes from their bodies... and do intercourse with a fellow dead person or something like that.

Well, as a being with a high-leveled mental endurance, these... what you call "sexual" scrutiny is nothing to me already. It's basically normal, right, my dear vessels?

[...]x24 

Unless you are like "us" and the human named Valentin Nobez, then you could be called a "god of culture", not just a "man of culture", I see...

Anyway, rather than the boy, why can the others see it now? Why could they see such a grand painting entitled "The Walking Heaven" because of its heavenly aura while moving from location to location? And also, it has the definition of 'seeing heaven with one's naked eyes.', so why did it become really possible? 

I should have continued explaining it, but suddenly,

"Uhmm... Bakunawa, right??" the currently walking Shiba Inu puppy dared to ask a question to the deity despite not turning its face to look at the naked her, "Are you..." as he followed.

"Am I what, lowly creature-friend of the human named Valentin Nobez?" she replied to the puppy with a question. "Say it now, uninteresting one."

Despite not being interested in it, the deity, which is currently walking while hiding the lower part of her head, still accepted to converse with the puppy just for the sake of having an opportunity to took glances at the quiet boy's body.

Quiet boy? Yes, he is. Not just on the outside, but even on the inside. Regardless if he's listening or not, he's somehow not but somewhat listening at the same time. It's like his computer mind is in sleep mode despite being aware of his front surroundings, moving his eyes or so. 

But for some seconds now, the puppy still hasn't spoken out. But then it continued conversing with the aroused deity once more. 

"U-Uhmm... Are yo-"

"Ehhh~~? Don't keep disturbing me, foolish lowly-being." the deity abruptly replied to the puppy while still looking at the boy's body keeping her face hidden, feeling aroused sexually.

But still, with a single questionable thought in its mind, the Shiba Inu puppy tried to continue the conversation once more, even feeling agitated or so.

"A-Are you th-the D-Da-Dra-Dara-" the puppy stuttered with a monotone voice. But then it eventually spoke the word "D-Dragon-n...?"

"Hmmm~~ What dragon are you talking about~~" the deity replied, still doing the same thing earlier. 

"The d-dragon th-that Tin ha-had se-seen earlier? Th-That dr-drago-go-gon's name is Ba-Bakunawa..."  

Despite a good amount of stuttering from the puppy, it sighed greatly as it finally put its questionable thoughts into voice, but still a monotone one. 

"... Oh that~~ Yes, yes. I'm Bakunawa the sea-serpent dragon deity~~" the deity replied, still doing the same thing. But unlike earlier she sure doesn't want to be disturbed anymore by following a glance at the puppy, having cold-bloody eyes of a killer or so. "Don't distyrb~~~"

But still, the puppy didn't care. It continued, "So why can the dead humans and I see you now?" without even a single stutter, "So if you turn into a human, then we can see you?"

Hearing that, the Deity became... denser. 

"So? What's wrong with it?" she replied, "What's wrong right now is that you'll peri-"

Suddenly, she stopped walking as she bowed down, surprised. 

The boy came back to his senses when he realized that the deity stopped walking. He was following a path of fate in which he decided is the most possible passionless fate his mind could ever think, including some 2 or 3 situations where someone suddenly appears in his front, or something like that.

But then he stopped following it. Next thing is that now, his mind is split in half. The one digging up the next possible passionless path while the other half is focusing on the current situation.

The boy stopped walking, looking at his back, to the standing naked deity. So now, the three of them are back at standing still again. 

"Why... are you silent, Ba-Bakunawa?" the puppy asked the deity while it began going closer to her. "Is th-there something wrong with what I said?"

Now that we realized it, for all this time, she's not even being dense... It's just that she's been absorbed greatly onto her libido towards the boy's body. But now that she was directly asked, everything for her seems to be "wrong". 

... Too wrong that she's now in an empty void in her mind, dumbfounded.

Her sexual drive crashed into a tree just because some puppy happens to directly ask her a down-to-hell question.

Her carefreeness popped like a balloon. Her head was washed with frigid water, freezing her at some point.

She became a stone, a block of ice, anything that describes the word "thunderstruck". 

But then, like directly being electrified by Zeus' thunderbolt, she rapidly came back to her senses just as "Bye, Bakunawa" the boy's voice echoed into her spines and all, her void of emptiness suddenly banishing itself into nothingness. I mean she's in a place of nothingness in the first place, so it really didn't make any sense.

Anyway. Just as the boy began walking again the deity, having no choice, followed in his footsteps while blushing even more. But now, the heavenly aura in her body vanished just by a snap of her fingers while making a disgusted face.

What I meant as a snap of her fingers is that a sweater dress magically clothed her body. To be specific, the deity just copied the brownish sweater dress from a living woman when she passed by without even seeing someone naked.

The deity then sighed, biting her lower lips while having the face of someone that could explode in some seconds. "How could this happen..." she said, "why am I put into the same place as these lowly beings..." while frowning. 

"What do you mean about that?" the boy asked without looking at the deity. "The bond you talked about?"

"No, I already know that you're stronger than me."

'Stronger?' the boy wondered. 'How could I be stronger than a deity?' 

Now that he thinks about it, the other half of his mind shifted its focus into making a reasonable explanation about it, connecting it to why he can see the other side already, why the puppy couldn't see the deity's serpent-dragon form earlier, and lastly, just as he arrived on thinking about why the deity's human form could be seen, he suddenly came up to a question.

"Are you wondering about why the others could see you? Isn't it because you're in a human form?"

"No, I don't really think so. When the last time I had turned into a human from ages ago, no one ever even saw me. Not my sister, not anyone that I have known of."

Hearing that, he finally knew what was happening about the deity. He thought that knowing about her first, he could have some hints about his current predicament. 

Despite already being close to the last part of the sidewalk, the boy still continued their conversation while walking.

"Do you know why?" he asked. 

"That's what I'm trying to know, the human Valentin Nobez." the deity replied, followed with a sigh. "I can't think about a reason why."

"But I may know abou-"

"WHAT?! WHY WHY WHY?" she abruptly asked as her face quickly shifted from a dismayed remorseful one to an excited one filled with a great chunk of hope. 

But still, even with that "rudeness" that the deity had shown, he still didn't care nor have some concerns about it.

And he replied, "Well, I think it's from the bond not really being a bond." 

"What?! So that means... I'm your s-s-s..."

"... Yes. I think you are what you are thinking." 

"No... freaking way." the puppy took part in their conversation because of how interesting it thought it is. "Congrats, Tin."

"What do you mean, congrats?"

"Well, from the looks of it, you now have a sex sla-!!"

"-No." 

But understanding the word "sex sla-", rather than the deity being angry about it, she even think it was... great. 

"Re-Really? That's what you are thinking, the human Valentin Nobez?" the deity followed with a great blush on her face. "W-Well... I wo-wouldn't re-really mind..." 

"No, you will. In the first place, how could the dead do intercourse with a living person?" the boy replied passionlessly.

"... R-Right." Hearing that, the deity's dream of becoming his sex slave had banished with the winds as her face turned to stone. 

Really, what a high mental fortitude the boy got here, right, my dear Vessels?

"A-Anyway. Human named Valentin Nobez. Co-Could you further explain...?"

"... Sure."

------------------------------
"Th-That's literally the reason..."

"Yeah."

He said that if the bond only works if the two are within equal terms, then when it is not, maybe the bond will malfunction and will be unequal anymore and instead adjust itself and scale the two according to how far or close their power is. So basically, she downgraded a level.

The boy sure is smart. Yes, it's precisely like that. The original ancient people who believed in her made it like that, where they measure it according to how intellectual or strong they are, even if no one had really formed a bond with the deity at all and eventually forgotten about it. 

Who knows...?

They scaled it as slaves, partial slaves, servants, and direct servants.

... And yes, the deity happens to be in the lowest part: a slave. 

"A slave... I have a strong feeling that I'm your slave, human Valentin Nobez." the deity said. "But it's great either way."

Without even really knowing about the scale, she felt that she really is a slave to the boy since she's been hearing her own voice saying the word "slave" as it echoed in her mind.

Suddenly, "So much happened for you, huh, Tin?" the puppy spoke as it stopped right at the end part of the downtown sidewalk street. "I couldn't even really believe it fully..." 

"... Yeah, this is quite fast. But well, I don't really care though..."   

As the three of them will finally leave the downtown street by starting to walk on a long pavement directly towards the school, suddenly...

"HmHHmmHHmmm~~" a loli-looking blonde girl wearing a military-looking suit and sunglasses with a white fire atop her head is humming independently loud as she passes by the three. 

The puppy, the deity, and the boy stares at her as she made her way carefreely. 

But as their heads synchronically tilt, it's like they are thinking the same thing, but on the inside, they have different thoughts about this. 

And the boy doesn't just stay wondering about it, because he even spoke it out.

"Marching on the streets? Geez, she seems to be passionate about it though..."

About the puppy, it stares at the loli because of how loud she is without even thinking about the other dead people. 'What a weird person...' The puppy thought, thinking that the blondie is like a landlord of this place or even a warden that escaped the prison instead of some prisoners.

And lastly, the deity wondered, 'Wish I have that carefreeness again, just like earlier...' as she thought while biting her lower lips.

So then, after that, they stopped looking at her. At their back, to be specific.

And little did they know, that the loli stopped walking, standing still, surprised.

"Wait. Just now..." she said as she lowered her head, dumbfounded.

It was the first day of the third-year high school student Valentin Nobez, but for him, is just a standard, typical, passionless day. Lack of interest in things. Love? Passion? Goal? What about them? They are just nothing in his mind, not even a single wondering moment about his future. Everything just seems average for him, "normal" grades, "normal" family, "normal" looks, "normal" life. Everything just seems... normal, that’s it- is what he usually tapes himself with as he walks on the street towards the school.

He seems fine with it though, not even asking for something fun. A Diety, Vessel, and friend of god of Earth, coincidentally looks upon him below, sighed as he finally figured out that the boy is another one that wasn’t given a story in life by his lazy friend. Being interested and feeling sorry for the boy, he then granted the boy something that will give him a story that he hadn’t even wished to have. Something fun, something great, and something worth living for. The thing; the key to unlocking the story; the power to see anything beyond what humans thought was a limited reality. This is the story of a boy that can see the other side of the world already, gifted by an unknown being passing through the cosmos faster than the speed of light, the gift… is none other than the Unliving Eyes.
