Ning felt the insides of his body lurch, and before he realized it, he was teleported away once more.
However, Alexis didn't return with him this time.
"YOU!"
The words replayed in his mind over and over. Alexis had been dying, and if he were to believe her, he was the cause.
"I am killing her?" he thought with a blank face. "How?"
How can a man kill a god?
'I'm not a man. No loner,' Ning thought. There were many times when he would forget that.
He sat down on his house's porch and started thinking about what Alexis meant.
"YOU!"
Ning felt like this was going to haunt him soon. He looked back towards the chair on the porch where Alexis used to sit all the time during the day.
She really wasn't back. 'Is she just angry for a while? Or will she never come back?' Ning wondered. He liked Alexis' company. Having someone that was more… immortal than him made him feel normal, as normal could be for someone that needed to worry about nothing.
'Immortal,' he thought. She wasn't immortal. She had lived for tens of thousands of years, and yet somehow she was dying because of Ning.
"Do you have any idea what I am doing that is causing Alexis to die?" Ning asked the system. He knew the system wouldn't answer anything regarding Alexis, but he still just wanted to shoot a qu—
The system finally said something that wasn't total silence.
"Prohibited?" Ning's face narrowed. He had come to assume that Alexis had information about energy that the system didn't want Ning to learn yet, but it seemed something was different about this.
"Prohibited by… the creator?" he asked.
"So it is not only about the energy that I'm not allowed to know about. There are other things as well huh?" Ning asked. "Does that mean I can never rely on you to know what she is?"
'Well, she is god,' Ning thought. The system didn't seem useful for now, so he decided to think about other things when suddenly the system spoke for one last time.
