āKill me and live with the memory. Then, tell the stars that you won.ā
Gods incarnated the purest sense of Justice.
Light Yagami, among all the earthly creatures, had been chosen as the serve of justice and would do anything in his power to accomplish the projects written in the stars. The first killings had been traumatic, a shock for the fragile human shell of a teen in his youth -even if he didnāt really mean it, even if it was just idly writing a name on a worn-out notebook and no blood stained the tip of the pencil, didnāt he just murder someone? His hands had trembled at the rush of power flowing through his veins and ancient words had lulled his mind until a new sense of relief settled in. In a world where justice was a mere tool twisted in the hands of those who declared themselves as the serves of law, where girls and boys like him couldnāt freely go around and enjoy their life without the fear of being killed or seeing their dears dying in a pool of blood, it was the timing to escape that apathy of his. Those boring days were coming to an end.
Heād been chosen to be Justice.
There was nothing left of Light in Kiraās bloody eyes, not a shred of the the golden-plated ideals of his youth. Yet, they waltzed like honey-clad knives along his smirk because it was everything at his advantage to preserve what he had already accomplished, what was so close to be perfect⦠And it would be, completely, when the last nuisance would leave the mortal world and join the nothingness like all those filthy criminals. No one could prevent the inevitable judgment of a God.
āIāll live with the memories of all of you.ā A hand pressed to his heart, the glimpse of a malicious smile tugging at his lips. āBecause you have been part of the New World Kira created.ā No word would make Kira teeter, withdraw to his steps, to the brilliant bored teen heād been; even though mortal eyes judged his actions as immoral and called him murdered, he would forgive them because of course no-one but him could comprehend the meaning of his project. Ā āYou say we think of justice quite in the same way but to me youāre nothing but an obstacle to the true justice.ā Facts and statics revealed how brilliantly far his plans went, how beautiful and clean the world look now that criminality decreased and people begun to share his ideals. Those who opposed to it were just as rotten as the criminals he killed. āItās a shame you donāt understand, Near.ā
Even with scorched earth around him and fingers soaked with blood while writing down Nearās name, Kira would win.
Heād been chosen to be a God.
