Supreme One, Momonga!

Chapter 3: Life and Death

"Yael, are you sure that Light Yagami is Kira?" Raye Penber asked the Angel floating above him in disbelief.

How did she come to this conclusion? Light Yagami is the ideal child that a parent would want, how could he be Kira?!

Yael floating above Raye, eating a grape, while dressed in all white, with divine and holy aura surrounding her, answered, "Well it's obvious. Unlike you, I can see things you cannot. Light Yagami, well I guess I should say, Kira is being followed by a Shinigami - a god of death. There can only be two reasons for that. Firstly, the Shinigami is about to end Light's life, hence the reason it is following him. But considering its inaction, that doesn't seem to be the case. Secondly, is that the Shinigami is observing how a Light Yagami uses the Death Note. it does not matter which one it is, ultimately, Light Yagami is suspicious."

"But he is just a student! What would compel him to kill so many people?!" He was going to end his investigation of Light Yagami and report to L that nothing suspicious was detected. Yet, Yael drops a bomb on him. He had no reason to doubt Yael, as she has been extremely helpful in the time they have been together.

Yael had explained the rules of the Life Note and even the Death Note , making him surprised. From the abilities, Raye realizes that the Life Note is the counter for the Death Note and might be more powerful.

Yael's explanation also shone a light on how Kira - the enigmatic serial killer - could kill so many people without being detected.

1: To heal someone, the user must write the individual's name inside the book and have an image of the person in mind.

2: To revive someone, the user must kill someone else an hour after said person has come to life to replace their place in death.

3: If the user is killed, the user can revive but will be forced into hell for breaking the rules of life and death upon dying a second time.

4: Users must never use their true name when using the Life Book, otherwise Death will claim you.

Though to Raye, Yael is arrogant but he could see why. Not only is she a divine being, she is a servant of God.

Tilting her head, causing her long blond hair to cascade down, Yael broke down her reasoning, "Does being a student stop one from committing murder? You had the answer in your hand. All the clues point to Light Yagami being Kira. Just like L said, do you not find it odd that just as you humans come to the conclusion that Kira is a student, his method of killing changes? That is as if the killer is trying to change that assumption to protect themselves. However this begs the question, how does the killer know this information? It can only mean that the killer is working within the Task Force or has access to your information. I can go into more reasons as to why Light Yagami has to be Kira, but that would be boring. You have the Life Note, so why not use it to discover the reason yourself?" She had done some digging on Kira after sensing Raye's inner turmoil - surfing the internet gathering a vast sea of knowledge about the Human World and its inhabitants.

Raye ponders while holding the Life Note. He did not know why he felt unease with such power in his hands. He could save anyone he wanted, he could become the savior the world needs, but this book is too heavy. If he caves into his desires, would he be different from Kira?

Sighing, Raye hid the book and stood outside Light's house, observing him. With the idea that Light Yagami could be Kira, Raye felt the danger of death and was scared. He could not but think, what if Light Yagami - Kira - knew his name?

On that note, with the Life Note currently in his hand, he could end Light's life and see if Kira vanish as well. If Kira still exist, that would conclude that Light Yagami and Kira are different entities.
