Chapter 875 - Angel Attack II
Chapter 875 β Angel Attack II
With a barrier breaking ability bestowed upon Ramiel, he easily damaged the Hexadrom to the point that it no longer could sustain the barrier on the clouds. The Hexadrom utilized almost all of its mana to repair itself and can no longer support the barrier projection.
The Hexaminis are the same as they were not created to easily deal with Principality level angels. Back then, most angels above the third hierarchy got sealed in the Silver City as punishment. Some of the strongest were not sealed but that did not mean they cannot escape being depowered.
The angels’ power mainly come from their connection to the Silver City as it was a city always being bathed with light. It is also the only way for angels to stabilize their bodies that are almost purely spiritual lifeforms because they are made from bodies of fallen gods. Gods are also spiritual lifeforms which is why they cannot easily penetrate the barrier between worlds.
With the connection to the Silver City gone, the angles weakened. The powerful ones that survived were taken down by the Nephilim that had solid physical bodies. In the end, the angels also went into hiding and possessed the bodies of the believers of the Goddess of Light.
They were the reasons that the Goddess of Light could actually became very revered. They performed acts of miracles in helping people in order to hide their barbaric actions of hunting down the Nephilim back then. They acted as the real messengers of the Goddess of Light and put the blame on the Nephilim that the real monsters were the devils and the Nephilim.
They even told the world that the devils and demons were of the same kin and that they will bring destruction of the world. At this point in time, war between the dark gods ended and the living beings lost most of their leaders from fighting the dark gods.
It was the best age to reverse the public sentiment on the Church of Light when only those who need help are great in number. The angels killed almost all of the high position priests from the Church of Light and occupied it with their ranks that possessed human bodies. Even the Envoy of Light that greatly berated the angels for what they have done was cut down by them.
What the living beings remembered back then was the Church of Light helping everyone in their time of need. Afraid that their exploits will be revealed by the dead, they did their absolute best to persecute the Church of Death. In the end, the followers of the Church of Death cannot bear the animosity towards them when all they did was perform proper burial rights.
It was also not a good image for the Church of Death to have their Envoy become a pawn of a dark god. The Church of Light even accused the followers of the Church of Death that they use the dead to do their bidding. In the end, the people forgot what the real purpose of the Church of Death is and believed the Church of Light that helped them in their plight.

“The Hexadrom no longer has enough mana to do its duties.” Princess Dainta stated as she peered from the clouds below.
The Hexadrom is already almost destroyed and is only continuing to operate due to the abundance of mana in the atmosphere. It is continuously healing its damage body parts and retreated. The Hexaminis also did the same action. The barrier that separated the clouds above is no longer there.
The angels also noticed this and flew up in the sky. They were greeted with the sight of a marvelous kingdom up in the clouds. The soldiers of the kingdom that were also giants greeted them with weapons large enough to easily squash a man.
“Filthy heathens!” Malach stated with a tone of great disgust.
“To think that these failures were really high up in the clouds.” Erelah stated in a condescending tone as she views giants as abominations or failures. They were not perfect like them for the giants have varying sizes of limbs that make them close to abominations.
“The energy signature cam from that castle. Follow! We have no time messing around with a bunch of trash.” Ramiel stated as he did not even glance at the direction of the giants. He treated them like ants or air that is not worth his time.
Ramiel flew forward but a large bardiche suddenly came swinging down on him. The wieldier of this bardiche is none other than General Goliath. Ramiel is supposed to ignore the attack, but he realized that there was a graze on his shoulder albeit a small one.
“If you move forward then the next thing that will fall is your head, you winged bastards.” General Goliath stated with a great threat.
The other giant guards also created a perimeter around them. There were also archers on the walls of the kingdom as they were ready to shoot down the angels if they come closer. The angels did not think lightly of this as the ones they see as trash and imperfect beings are being arrogant against them who were the perfectly created beings.
“You dare, trash!” Malach stated as he activated his skill and conjured up swords made of light.
“The abominations need to be reminded of their place. You have to be thought that you must never dare speak again to perfect beings.” Erelah stated as her magic power surged and materialized as golden lightning behind her. .
“If you do not want your kingdom to burn then you better not block our way.” Ramiel stated as his muscles suddenly tightened to the point that he could kill a monster with just one punch.
“You dare call yourselves perfect beings when you are nothing but spiritual lifeforms that need a host in order to even exist in the mortal plane. If you ask me the perfect beings are everyone except your race.” Princess Dainta stated as she wanted to reply to her frustrations of being labeled as trash or abominations.
“You dare! Trash!” Malach stated as he launched one of his swords of light to hit Princess Dainta.
The sword of light did not even reach Princess Dainta as a pool of blood suddenly appeared and absorbed the swords kinetic energy. It then dispersed back to light and the one who did it is none other than Solstice. This action made the angels look at her with great hostility as it was not an easy feat to cancel energy like that.
“Who would dare to block my punishment on the trash!” Malach shouted. π.πβ΄π
“You know. My brother told me that the angel race was a great pain in the ass, and he was correct. I did not think that they were narcissistic bastards with greatly inflated egos. I hate those people the most as I had my fair share of dealing with bastards like those.” Solstice stated.
“You dare!” Malach shouted as he was about to launch another attack towards Solstice, but Ramiel stopped him as the latter knew that she would not be affected by half-baked attacks.
“Use your eyes and see that she is not something that you can easily deal with simple attacks. She might wear a weapon, but the scent of darkness is strong on that armored woman and that man over there.” Ramiel warned as he knows that the opposite of light is darkness.
“They are not giants, but people shrouded by darkness itself. The Church of Darkness is no longer as active as we almost purged them from existence. Only a few people worship the God of Darkness Scotus which is why even their best paladins could not defeat us. Did they come here to stop us win our plans?” Erelah asked as light magic is cancelled by equal powered darkness magic.
“No, they are not followers of the Church of Darkness. Their souls are darkness itself as if they were born from within it. They can only be⦔ Ramiel stated.
“Erebian.” All three angels stated simultaneously as they can also see the makeup of souls since they are spiritual lifeforms. Although they cannot see it like Adrian as the latter can see even the tiniest details of souls.
“What do we do? Erebians are not a great match up to go up against.” Erelah asked as she knows that Erebians counter the likes of them since their kind can literally swallow light.
“Thankfully, we came during the morning. It also seems that they are not as powerful as me. The only one I sense as a threat is the one that attacked me earlier, but I can deal with him easily. Both of you can easily defeat the two as long as you do not let your guard down.” Ramiel shared with Malach and Erelah via telepathy.
“Did you suddenly get scared? You know, my brother told me something interesting about the creation of you pathetic losers. The Goddess of Light, Luminaria, was it? Do not really care. Since she cannot create life easily, she had to beg the Goddess of Life Gaea to grant her some of her powers.
To think that your proud goddess bowed down to another goddess because she was inept of creating something. She also begged to create you narcissistic worthless souls into the world which is a great comedy in and of itself..” Solstice stated as she did not like people calling her trash of all things.
