Chapter 00: Prologue

After 1,600 years, the God of Darkness had been released.

“…Hey there.”

“Long time no see.”

The one who first met him was the Light Goddess.

She is none other than one of the five Gods who defeated him in the battle 1,600 years ago and sealed him.

“So you were the one who released the seal huh. Moreover, you alone. That must mean quite a long time has passed already.”

“Yeah. The seal we -five Gods- placed on you, in normal circumstances, there would be the need of all five of us in order to undo it, just like in the time of the sealing. But it has already deteriorated. It had loosened enough for me to undo it on my own……I will say it once again…”

The Light Goddess continues,

“It has been 1,600 years long, Dark God Entropy. My loved one.”

“…1,600 years. One thousand six hundred years?!” (Entropy)

Digesting those words, the Dark God trembled.

“With that much time passed, the humans must have changed quite a lot. How are they doing? Have they evolved properly? You Gods have not interfered unnecessarily, right?” (Entropy)

“Good grief, you haven’t changed at all even after 1,600 years. Always going about humans, humans. You don’t care about me at all.”

The Light Goddess gave out a displeased atmosphere, but the Dark God didn’t loosen his words.

“In the battle at the world’s creation, you guys won. You wouldn’t understand just how anxious I got. Because you only saw humans as trash after all.” (Entropy)

“You were the weird one for being excessively attached to humans. That’s why, in the fight 1,600 years ago, there were no allies on your side.”

“And because of it, I lost. I have no grudge on that part. However, if in the time I was sealed, you guys have treated them inappropriately, and have hindered their natural evolution…” (Entropy)

“You will begin it again? The battle…of Gods.”

Light and Darkness; the gaze of the two Gods clash.

“…Also, after a glance at the current world -maybe because of it being 1,600 years already- my heart is dancing to see how it has changed.” (Entropy)

“Fine. Then let’s look at it from above right now—”

“No…” (Entropy)

He stops the Light Goddess that was about to open the window to look below.

“Even if I were to look down at it from such a high place, I will only be able to understand the surface of it. In order to understand humans more, it would be nice to do it alongside them, standing on the same viewpoint.” (Entropy)

“What are you going to do?”

At the question of the Light Goddess, the Dark God answers with a smile on his face.

“I am going to reincarnate as a human.”

*   *   *

On that day, a new life was born at a certain house.

An unusually energetic boy. This married couple that was blessed with a child for the first time, named him ‘Haine’ and raised him with care.

And this child is the very person that had the soul of the God of Darkness who had fought with the five Gods at the world’s creation 1,600 years ago.

The story begins by the time Haine has turned 18 years old.

  1. Thanks for the chapters. It’s been awhile since I’ve read tsuki so i wanted to say thanks in advance as I binge for the next while

  2. Hummm -_- i can’t think another plot except, when this Dark god got himself a human girl lover the light goddes will intervene them and incidentally kill him -_- like a heroes story from myth….

  3. Finally! It has been only a week, but I missed coming here to check for new chapter. That Goddess strikes me as a possessive one. Let’s see what she’ll do when Haine gets some women. Now then… time to read all these chapter you posted. Thanks Reigokai!

  4. so a Light God who love the Dark God….. i hope the light god a yandere so whenever there’s someone that try to steal her Dark God she just throw some heavenly punishment from outta nowhere 😀

    1. Now that i’ve read it~~
      Thx again for showing us a new series. I hope we get to love this one too like your other project’s. If it isn’t too much to ask, would it be possible to tell us in case any new’s regarding Moonled?
      I will proceed to pleasure myself with these chapter’s now

  5. Wow. Reigokai wasn’t kidding. This is short.

    So what we’ve gathered here is that the Light Goddess loves the Dark God, the Dark God loves humans, and the non-Dark Gods love being dicks.

    Good start.

  6. Why are people okay with the light goddess? She’s one of the gods that sealed him. Meaning she’s one of the asshole gods that want to rule humanity.

    1. Well, it’s more so that she’s just a normal god and that the god of Darkness is different from the norm. We don’t hate her in particular, we just find the normal gods to be assholes in generals. She’s just one of them.

      Other than that, there how she actually went and undid the seal. Yes, it was going to be undid by itself at some point, but she still did it before that point. From my point of view, she wasn’t able to unseal him before because she would have needed the help of the other 4 gods, and she now unsealed him as soon as it was possible for her to do it alone, for she loves him and apparently didn’t want him to stay sealed.

      Also, we don’t know yet for sure, but it looks like she just doesn’t care about humans much and that she joined the other four gods out of jealousy that the mc was interested in them all the time. This Yandere nature is the reason why I personally dislike her. She’s most likely going to interfere in bad ways in the story because of that jealousy. In a way, she’s like Hera who is always jealous of the human women that Zeus charms and sleep with.(Hera also punishes them all incredibly harshly even when those women were actually just raped by Zeus.)

      1. But does that makes things okay. To me she basically went ” Let get this dagger out of your back (even though i helped put it there) Teehee”.

        1. I never said that made things okay. I just meant that since we already hate gods in general, then we don’t feel the need to mention it again unless it’s an especially bad behavior even for one such asshole god. (and in this case she actually just behave in the way of a normal yandere, wanting to lock up the one she loves. It’s not a good thing, but it’s often seen enough that we just don,t comment about that anymore.)

  7. By this prologue… this seems to be interesting. Thanks for the prologue, Reigo-senpai.

  8. Thanks for the new series! Though I’m still hoping that the author of Moonled journey would churn out a chapter or two or 108 sometime soon…

    1. Maybe from Slavic religion? I seem to remember there also being another mid-eastern religion that has something like that as well.
      And on the matter of the gods of light and dark to be really close yet still in disagreement, that duality in union is the cycle of day and night. That,s a very common theme in many ancient religions. In Ancient Egyptian religion too to some extent.

      1. yep, something that explains the cycle of day and night (I actually read it in the story that I can’t remember… but I didn’t bother to look up at that time that it was inspired by our myths

      2. That reminds me, isn’t our own beloved Moon-bro Tsukuyomi’s backstory something like that?

        Something about him doing something to upset Amateratsu, his sister and wife, so she’s eternally avoiding him with him pursuing her as the sun and moon respectively.

  9. ty for the chap
    seems promissing
    bu it has a touch of holy bible like
    “the devil only wanted the humans to think for themself”
    just my thought

  10. True, I forgot about that, but you’re right. And Lucifer was cast out of Heaven by god(and other seraphs) due to Lucifer’s views, he fell to hell and his name changed as he become a different being in hell, the demon Satan, the devil. It is indeed quite similar.

  11. Thank you for the feed- I mean the chaptah :v
    yeah, like what you said, this is too short compared with tsuki :3

  12. So, the Goddess of Light and God of Darkness are lovers (ex?). How does that even be possible?
    Entrophy seems like he didn’t care much or love the goddess at all. Then, is this unrequited love?? Or maybe they’re divorced?? Stop seeing each other??

    So many questions.

    *crowds shouting*
    “This is just a prologue. Shut up Truck-kun.”

    1. This strikes me as awfully one-sided, with Inflation(totally going to call her that from now on) being miffed at Entropy “always” paying attention to those loser humans.

      That said, Entropy doesn’t seem particularly hostile to her either-especially despite the whole sealing thing, so they might’ve had a relationship that was half-hearted on his part until the war.

  14. i hope this become better .. . because i just saw a weirdo that doesn’t look like a Dark God but seems like overprotective mother.

    We don’t know why he like humans that much

    nice translation as ever

  15. I find hard to read because the text isn’t in the center. It doesn’t need to be exactly in the center, but when you read almost every other novel very close to the center you found very hard to read when you suddenly have something on the left side.
