The Saint’s Knight and Demon King [8]
Enormous fireworks exploded in the sky.
In the wake of the crowd’s cheers becoming louder and louder, Chen Liguo saw people of the dark race appear on the stage in the sky. They waved their wings, swirled around and jumped mid-air, jumping a unique dance that belonged to the demonic realm.
The demon’s hand that held Chen Liguo gripped tighter.
Chen Liguo was influenced by this kind of mood and a trace of joy appeared in his eyes.
"This is the most boisterous time of the year in the imperial city." The demon’s voice rang in Chen Liguo’s ear. He said, "I’m very glad that I can spend it with you."
He said so gently and seemed to give Chen Liguo an illusion, as if he was not a god imprisoned here, but a person who had gone back home to celebrate the New Year.
The party became more and more lively and the spirits of the dark race became even more jovial. Chen Liguo saw a fallen elf, whom he had seen in the demon’s residence prior, go onto the stage and sing a song. His song was ethereal and graceful. It was no worse than the songs of the light elves that Chen Liguo had heard before.
"Do you like it?" The demon asked him.
Chen Liguo liked it quite a bit but he couldn’t say it, so he kept silent.
The demon didn’t mind. He interlocked his fingers with Chen Liguo’s and looked at the performance in the sky, the atmosphere between them extremely harmoniously.
During the second half of the program, the demon brought Chen Liguo away.
When he and Chen Liguo returned to his castle, the first thing he did was to gently kiss Chen Liguo on his lips.
Chen Liguo thought that he was going to do it and didn’t expect for the demon to say, "Let’s sleep."
Chen Liguo was a little surprised.
The demon looked at his expression and laughed. He said, "Look at me again and I won’t be able to endure it anymore."
Chen Liguo pursed his lips and didn’t say anything. He was wrapped in the demon’s arms and fell into a deep sleep.
After the new year it was a new beginning.
In the next period of time, every now and then, the demon would bring some news about Angel.
For the most part, it was about how she was achieving her aims with underhanded means. On one side she was the holy pope, on the other, she was studying necromancy which was dark magic.
"Her talent really is amazing." The demon said, "I can see the trace of a new god in her."
What confused Chen Liguo the most about the news was that Angel’s destiny completion degree was still advancing. It was like her ultimate goal in life was powerful strength, so whenever she became stronger, her destiny completion degree went up a little bit more.
Chen Liguo was very glad that he didn’t have to blow up into a firework in the sky.
Time in the demonic realm passed by quietly and about half a year passed by again——This was five human years. The demon brought Chen Liguo news that he had never expected at all. The demon said, "Your Angel has summoned dead dragons."
"What?!" Chen Liguo was truly a little surprised.
At the wave of the demon’s hand an image appeared before Chen Liguo. In it, Angel was dressed in a black robe with a black mask on her face, her entire body was letting out an air of darkness.
There was a vast expanse of land in front of her. However, as she read the spell, the ground before her let out tremendous rumbles, as if there were giant monsters rushing out of the ground.
After the spell was finished, Chen Liguo stared blankly at the screen before him as from within the thick black soil, there climbed out a tremendous dragon——a skeleton one.
"She actually really summoned a dead dragon." The demon put his hand on his chin, his voice full of interest. "This....... is but the forbidden spell of the dark race that had been lost long ago."
Chen Liguo widened his eyes, as if he wanted to pop his eyes out. If he remembered correctly, Angel summoning a dead dragon was an iconic event in the original world——It marked the official arrival of the Age of Annihilation on the light continent.
The demon laughed lowly, apparently delighted by Chen Liguo’s shocked expression. He said, "How is it? The peace you’ve been strenuously trying to keep has been broken by the successor you personally chose."
Chen Liguo said, "I want to go back and see her."
The demon said, "It’s too late......"
Chen Liguo exclaimed, "What do you mean?!"
The demon smiled, "This scene is from a month ago."
For a moment, Chen Liguo didn’t know what to say.
The demon said, "Right now, your family’s lovely Angel has given this dragon as a gift to your beloved continent." With another wave of his hand a stretch of scorched land appeared before Chen Liguo’s eyes. Chen Liguo looked at it and found that this scorched land was actually the imperial city——
Chen Liguo: "...... Oof, Angel exploded the imperial city."
System: "....."
Chen Liguo said, "The most terrifying thing is that her completion degree is still rising."
The system said, "I think so too."
The two reached a rare consensus on one point......
The demon yawned lazing as he looked at Chen Liguo’s face changing. He asked, "Do you want to go see the light continent?"
Chen Liguo did not agree directly but looked at the demon vigilantly, "What do I need to exchange for it?"
The demon smiled wickedly and said, "Baby, do you know, the horn on my head has a sense of touch too."
Chen Liguo thought about the demon’s words and blushed. He wanted to say, ’Big brother, this position is a little difficult ah.’
The demon said, "You come kiss it and if it’s happy, I’ll take you."
Chen Liguo: "......." Ai, he didn’t know why he was a little disappointed.
And so Chen Liguo, with a complex expression that couldn’t be determined whether it was humiliation or shame, slowly walked up to the demon.
The demon pulled Chen Liguo’s hand and let him sit on his lap, and then bowed his head.
Chen Liguo kissed the horn on the demon’s head. The feeling was the same as when he touched it before and was very good but it was just somewhat cold.
Chen Liguo licked it like it was a popsicle stick for a long time. Finally, it was only when his cheeks felt sore from licking that he felt the demon react.
The demon’s chest rose and fell as if he was stifling his emotions. At first, Chen Liguo thought that he was restraining his desire. Later, he realized that this bastard was restraining his laughter.
Chen Liguo was a little angry and said, "What are you laughing at."
The demon raised his head and said, "I lied to you."
Chen Liguo didn’t react to what he meant by those words. After going blank, he understood. The demon saying that he had lied to him meant——His horn simply didn’t have any sensation.
With a slap Chen Liguo struck him on the horn.
The demon said, "But although it doesn’t have any feelings, it’s still very pleased." His face was full of satisfaction. As soon as he thought of how Chen Liguo earnestly licked his horns with furrowed brows a moment ago, he couldn’t help but want to laugh.
Chen Liguo felt a certain part bump him behind and coldly said, "Can you take me now?"
The demon said, "Of course I can. Have a good rest tonight, we’ll set out tomorrow."
Only then did Chen Liguo breathe a sigh of relief. He left the demon behind and went out.
The demon looked at the sight of Chen Liguo’s back and reached out to touch his horn. He said softly, "How can it not feel......."
The next day, the demon set out from the imperial city with Chen Liguo.
As soon as they left, Chen Liguo distinctly felt his power recover. The demon was very clear about Chen Liguo’s physical condition, so the day after they left he grabbed Chen Liguo and did it with him at some roadside inn.
This was their first time doing it outside.
The ’creak creak’ sound of the bed and the noisy crowd outside of the window all made Chen Liguo feel particularity ashamed. He buried his head under the blanket and firmly bit his lips, seeming like he wanted to bite blood out.
The demon liked Chen Liguo’s forbearing appearance. He stroked Chen Liguo’s shoulder blade——Where his wings were, but he did not ask him to take them out.
Chen Liguo was a little unhappy. After they finished he ignored the demon——Although he didn’t pay attention to the demon usually, his attitude became colder.
However, the demon seemed to know what Chen Liguo was thinking and did not force him to speak.
Before arriving at the light continent, Chen Liguo had initially thought that the scene that the demon showed him had been deliberately exaggerated.
However, after they arrived at the light continent, he realized that the demon had chosen places where things weren’t as bad.
The dead dragon that Angel had summoned was still able to breath out dragon breath and the power of the dragon not only didn’t diminish, but also gained the power of darkness.
Once tainted, all life and land would be eroded by the air of the dead and gradually become prisoners of darkness.
When the demon saw the tragedy of the ground, he couldn’t help but marvel, "Human beings are much more destructive than we are."
Chen Liguo looked at the town that hardly had any living people in it and his heart seemed to be submerged in cold water.
Angel’s actions until now were only the beginning. She needed a lot of dead souls to form a legion for her to achieve her purpose of attacking the demonic realm. As a necromancer, in her eyes, the living creatures were no longer a necessary existence.
The only thing to be thankful for was that Angel had not yet given up the light pope’s scepter——She seemed to think that it was the only thing that Chen Liguo had left her and no matter what, it couldn’t be discarded.
"What about Angel? Where is she right now?" Chen Liguo asked the demon.
The demon said, "She went to the dragon tomb in the west."
Chen Liguo was a little panicked as soon as he heard this. He exclaimed, "Dragon tomb?!" The Dragon tomb was the grave of the dragons and was sealed by a curse. In the original world, Angel broke the curse of the dragon tomb and completely sunk into darkness.
"How can she go there." Chen Liguo said. "Take me over, I need to stop her——"
Unexpectedly, the demon did not make things difficult for Chen Liguo this time and lazily agreed.
So the demon rushed with Chen Liguo towards the dragon tomb.
Chen Liguo thought that they would be able to make it, but when they were still a ways off, they heard a tremendous roar from a dragon.
The dragon’s roar was deafening, full of endless anger, and made Chen Liguo’s face a tad bit paler.
He had come too late. Angel had already entered the dragon’s tomb and disturbed the sleeping dead dragons and on top of that, had desecrated their dead bodies.
However, the demon laughed and said, "Amusing."
Chen Liguo said with gritted teeth, "I want to see Angel."
The demon glanced at him and said, "Dragon’s dragon tomb is cursed and is harmful to the Light God. We should wait outside for her to come out."
Chen Liguo’s expression was very tense and it could be seen that he was in a very bad mood.
The demon said, "You always care so much about her, can’t you just give me a little bit of your heart?"
Chen Liguo was still thinking about Angel and couldn’t help but instantly get goosebumps the moment he overheard the demon’s words. He turned his head and saw the demon with grievance written across his whole face and couldn’t say anything.
The system’s voice sounded again and it seemed to be a little helpless as it said, "Angel’s destiny completion degree has risen again."
Chen Liguo asked with a shaking voice, "By how much?"
System: "...... Ten points."
Chen Liguo: "......"
One person and one system could not think of anything to say to each other as they profoundly felt the unusualness of the daughter of fate of this world.
Angel stayed in the dragon tomb for three days. When she came out again, she was followed by two giant dragons. Waking up two dragons and controlling them with her necromancy was already her limit.
Overusing her magic made her feel very bad but the faith in her heart supported her body and kept her from collapsing.
Chen Liguo saw Angel from a distance.
The girl was dressed in a black cloak and her face was nearly completely shaded. Whether it was her long blond hair or green eyes, they were both covered with black mist, which made her look gloomy and frightening.
It was like an invisible black hole. No light could be seen.
Chen Liguo didn’t know what he should say to her, so he looked on from afar and watched her approach.
There was a smile on the demon’s face as he greeted Angel.
"Long time no see, blond haired miss." The demon said. "Your family’s Pope Daren has been very worried about you and had me take him back to take a look."
Angel’s footsteps stopped in place.
The demon opened up his hands and feigned helplessness. "Merely I didn’t expect that you would bring him such a big surprise."
Angel opened up the cloak that she had wrapped herself in, revealing black hair and black eyes——Her blonde hair and green eyes had actually been changed by the darkness.
"Michael Daren." Angel said. "I’m sorry." Her tone carried a bit of suffering, like a child whose parents found out that she had done something wrong.
Chen Liguo’s heart was heavy. He said, "Angel, don’t let the suffering eat you up."
Angel said, "But I’m not suffering."
As she spoke, she controlled the giant dead dragons to approach the demon. It seemed that she wanted to try her first attempt at snatching Michael from the demon’s hands today.
"Angel——" Chen Liguo looked at the progress bar on her head that was approaching sixty and wondered, "As the pope, you should protect your people. Why have you fallen into the embrace of darkness?"
Angel said, "Because I don’t care about them at all and don’t want to protect them." She said, "I just care about you alone, Michael Daren."
Chen Liguo was dumbfounded.
He didn’t expect that the Angel who didn’t meet her lover would instead place her heart on him and that the matter of him being captured by the demon would become the fuse.
The gigantic dragons began to let out low roars, seeming like they were getting restless.
The demon said, "I should thank you for opening up a new path for the dark race." He spread out his wings and flew into the sky.
As a god whose magic power had been sealed, Chen Liguo’s fighting power was almost zero. He looked at the fierce battle between Angel and the demon but didn’t know what he should say.
"Daren." Angel said. "I will definitely save you."
The demon sneered, "Save him? You dare say that you won’t lock him up after you save him?"
Angel said, "This dirty continent is not suitable for Daren, I have already chosen a cleaner place for Daren."
The demon said, "Michael, look at the good pope you chose."
Chen Liguo listened to the two’s conversation with horror. He was already used to the demon’s desire, but why did Angel look so strange? From what she admitted to the demon’s question——If the her who was eroded by the darkness took him back, she would probably find a place to lock Michael up.
Chen Liguo: "...... These two people are so frightening ah."
The system said, "So......"
Chen Liguo said vigilantly, "Refuse to explode."
The system was indifferent. "Oh."
A God of Darkness and a founder of necromancy. If they really did fight, then they would definitely startle heaven, demons and gods and no living animals would be seen within several hundreds of miles in their proximity.
Chen Liguo grit his teeth and said, "Stop——Don’t fight on the continent!"
The demon said, "She asked for it."
Angel said, "I’m going to kill your with my own hands!"
Chen Liguo: "......" Ai, can’t persuade them.
And then the two started fighting. The only thing to be thankful for was that this was the dragon tomb and there were no villages around. Chen Liguo was protected by the demon’s barrier and watched all kinds of magic blow up above his head.
Angel ordered a dragon to protect herself and the other to attack the demon.
The demon was evidently more than equal for this task. He still had time to provoke the relationship between Chen Liguo and Angel, saying that the person whom Chen Liguo constantly thought of was a necromancer like this and even told Chen Liguo to stop being so silly, his Angel had already been devoured by the darkness for a long time.
Angel was angered by the demon so much she practically lost her mind.
Chen Liguo watched as the two people mutually ridiculed each other using the most venomous words and expressions. He simply wanted to peddle melon seeds and peanuts to the front row.
Chen Liguo said, "I think I can’t finish my task."
The system said, "I think so too."
Chen Liguo profoundly felt that the Angel of this world was completely unlike those daughter of fates before. Her obsession was too strong and didn’t allow anyone else to touch her beloved things.
But the demon deliberately did so.
The more the demon and Angel fought the fiercer it became. However, the outcome of the battle had been foreordained. Even if Angel became stronger, could she be stronger than the demon of this world?
So Angel was defeated and the two dragons were broken into bone fragments by the demon.
The demon didn’t want Angel’s life but the words he said made her want to die. He said, "Just based on your skills, you want to take Michael back? Go back and dream your ghost dreams."
Angel fell to the ground in a sorry figure, her complexion deathly white, angered so much she almost bit a tooth into pieces.
The demon didn’t pay her any attention. He flew down, carried Chen Liguo, then left.
The demon said, "I didn’t kill her, are you going to thank me?"
Chen Liguo glared at him and said, "Thank you."
The demon rubbed his chin against Chen Liguo’s head and said, "I don’t like her the least bit."
Chen Liguo thought, ’I’ve wronged you oh.’
The demon said, "I keep feeling that she’s going to cause a calamity."
Chen Liguo had originally thought that the demon was intentionally vilifying Angel but never thought that he was setting up a flag.
After the fight between Angel and the demon, the demon wanted to bring Chen Liguo back to the demonic realm but Chen Liguo was worried about Angel and wanted to stay here for a few more days.
The demon said unhappily, "A month at the most." After leaving the demonic realm, his fetters on Chen Liguo would become weaker and weaker. A month was the limit.
Although Chen Liguo didn’t want to agree, he still thought that it was better than going back right away, so he acquiesced.
After losing the fight with the demon, all traces of Angel disappeared. Chen Liguo searched everywhere but couldn’t find her. One morning, the demon’s face changed greatly and he exclaimed, "Has she gone crazy?!"
Chen Liguo was stunned.
The demon said, "That Angel of yours is simply a madman——" He picked Chen Liguo up and flew in a certain direction. He didn’t conceal his wings anymore, frightening a great number of civilians.
Chen Liguo also vaguely felt something. His perception wasn’t as distinct as the demon’s but he managed to guess what Angel was doing——She actually set up an array and was attempting to use a forbidden curse.
This curse should be very powerful. Otherwise, the demon’s face wouldn’t change so much.
"She’s sacrificing her flesh and soul." The demon said. "And wants to turn the entire continent into souls."
Chen Liguo was stupefied, "Why?!"
The demon bit Chen Liguo on his lips and harrumphed, "What else could it be for if not for your sake——
Chen Liguo: "......"
On the way, the system lifelessly said, "Let me tell you some bad news."
Chen Liguo asked, "What news?"
The system said, "This Angel’s destiny completion degree is still rising."
Chen Liguo was stupefied. He said, "The goal in her heart can’t be to turn the entire continent into the continent of the dead can it?!"
The system said, "It’s very probable."
Chen Liguo said, "Then I just watch her change?"
The system said, "...... I don’t recommend that you do so, but the final choice is up to you." Watch Angel achieve her goal and walk away with her completed destiny or prevent her and fail this world’s task.
Chen Liguo: "Can your BUG still be repaired?"
The system felt a little guilty. This world’s trajectory suddenly collapsed. It indeed was related to their systems, so Chen Liguo, as a host, was just a victim. It said, "Sorry. I have discussed with headquarters and have decided to compensate you in your next world."
Chen Liguo asked, "What compensation?"
The system said, "Let you brazenly engage in male homosexual practices at ease, is that all right?"
Chen Liguo was moved by the system’s sincere tone. He asked, "Really? Won’t advise me to self-destruct every day?"
System: "......" It’s not as though you’ll have that function in the next world.
Chen Liguo asked, "Won’t say that I’m spicy chicken anymore?"
The system said coldly, "Spicy chicken is just a kind of chicken and isn’t a banned word."
Chen Liguo: "......" You’re just cheating the judgment procedures.
However, with the system’s guarantee, Chen Liguo’s entire person felt refreshed. He asked, "Then how can I stop Angel?"
The system said, "You need to self-destruct."
Chen Liguo: "......"
The system said, "I’m being serious!"
Chen Liguo: "......"
The system said, "The light power within your body just happens to be enough to resolve the contamination on the light continent. It’s the perfect plan, there’s nothing wrong about it."
Chen Liguo asked, "I won’t hurt?"
The system said, "It’s painless, fast, and you can start work three minutes after."
Chen Liguo: "......" Feels like something is wrong.
However, the system had said thus and with the next world as assurance, Chen Liguo was at ease. He showed a strange smile in the demon’s arms.
The demon’s entire body trembled at Chen Liguo’s smile and he almost threw him to the ground. He asked, "What are you smiling at?"
Chen Liguo took back his smiling expression and said softly, "I didn’t smile."
The demon said, "You smiled!"
Chen Liguo thought, how was this child so stubborn? So he said, "Okay, I smiled."
Demon: "......" He had a bad feeling.
The demon flew towards the place of Angel’s array with Chen Liguo in his arms.
Angel stood upon a huge array. Beside her were two giant dead dragons.
The demon said, "I’ll go stop her."
Angel looked at them but showed a twisted smile. She said, "It’s too late, too late——" When I turn the whole continent into souls, I will become a new god. Saving Michael Daren will become a simple matter.
The demon laughed coldly, "Foolish insect."
Chen Liguo said, "Put me down."
The demon put Chen Liguo on the ground who then looked at Angel, his tone and manner disappointed. He said, "Angel, I didn’t teach you to be like this, you disappoint me so much."
Angel cried with laughter, she said, "But Daren, I’m doing this all for you. Except for me, they all forgot about you."
Chen Liguo sighed lowly and said, "If only you remember, isn’t it fine? Why do all this? Doing all these things, what’s the difference between you and the demon?"
Angel cried miserably. She said, "I don’t care——I just want Daren, Daren, don’t blame me, okay?"
Chen Liguo showed a tired appearance. He said, "Angel, you weren’t like this before."
Angel shook her head, but didn’t stop the curse. She said, "The people on this continent aren’t worth your protection at all. They are all swindlers who fool the world to get fame."
Chen Liguo said, "Enough, stop okay?"
Angel ignored Chen Liguo’s dissuasion and said, "I only have the scepter that you left behind, but this scepter is just evidence that we have been deceived by god. There is no god in this world. I am my own god——"
It turned out that Angel’s obsession was this.
Chen Liguo understood everything almost instantly. He said, "Angel."
Black light continued to spread over the ground from where Angel stood. Wherever it went the plants instantly withered and the ground began to emit a fishy stench.
However, the demon didn’t intend to stop it. He looked at Angel indifferently, as if he were looking at a dead person.
Angel’s flesh and blood began to fall to the ground in lumps. This should have been very painful but she looked at Chen Liguo with a smile. "Daren, please look at me. If you look at me, I won’t hurt anymore."
Chen Liguo couldn’t bear it anymore. He shouted in his heart——human bomb Chen Liguo, launch.
Then his body began to let out a blinding light.
The demon who stood beside Chen Liguo was given a big fright. He instantly realized what Chen Liguo wanted to do. He stepped forward and firmly held Chen Liguo. "Michael, you’re crazy——"
"Stop." A pair of snow-white wings extended from Chen Liguo’s back and his long golden hair waved in the air despite there being no wind. His blue eyes were full of sorrow. He said, "Angel, it’s not that there is no god. I am that incompetent god."
Angel stared with wide eyes.
Chen Liguo looked at Angel and said, "I’m sorry that I’ve led you astray. Since it’s my fault, I will solve it myself."
Angel was dumbfounded. She looked at the holy light on Chen Liguo, at the white wings behind him, and felt the incomparably strong light. She said, "Daren, why...... didn’t you tell Angel earlier?"
Chen Liguo said, "Sorry, this is all my fault."
"Michael, hurry and stop!" The demon knew what Chen Liguo was going to do. His face was full of panic, without any of his usual calm and tranquility. The strong power of light burned him who hugged Chen Liguo, seeming like he was practically going to become charcoal.
"Michael——" The demon said. "I’ll let you go okay? Michael, don’t do this——" He understood that Chen Liguo wanted to self destruct. If a god exploded themselves, not only would their godhead by destroyed, but even their soul would disappear in the crevices of time and space.
However, Chen Liguo didn’t waver at the demon’s words.
Chen Liguo had originally thought that self-destruction would be a little painful but the system would not dig pits for him in these matters. He not only didn’t feel any pain, but also felt very refreshed. Like he had held his pee in all night and in the morning, could finally go to the washroom and pull his zipper down happily.
It was unknown what the system’s mood would be if it heard what Chen Liguo was thinking.
The overflowing light from Chen Liguo’s body revitalized the land that had been contaminated with darkness and lush plants began to grow rapidly.
Angel finally stopped the curse.
The wounds on her body from the forbidden curse were also healed by the holy light from Chen Liguo’s body. She foolishly stood where she was and cried, "Michael Daren."
There was a bit of a smile on Chen Liguo’s face. He said, "Angel."
"Michael Daren. I know that I was wrong, please stop!!" Angel seemed to finally understand that Chen Liguo was burning up his own life. Her voice trembled. "I got lost in the darkness. Please, I beg you, give me another chance!!"
Chen Liguo’s expression was still gentle. However, this kind of gentleness, in the eyes of the demon and Angel, was equal to indifference.
"Angel." Chen Liguo said. "You are god’s child. God has never abandoned you."
Angel’s soul seemed to have already flown out of her body. She didn’t know what she should say to stop Chen Liguo. She stepped forward but was repelled by Chen Liguo’s holy light. This made Angel realize that Chen Liguo was rejecting her existence.
"Michael Daren." Angel cried and said, "Aren’t gods all lenient?"
"I’m just making up for my own mistakes." The holy light gradually extended. Chen Liguo was like a huge sun that dispelled the haze over the whole continent.
However, feathers constantly fell from his wings. These feathers turned into light and scattered in the air.
Michael said, "I’m sorry."
"It’s not your fault." The demon’s voice sounded from behind Michael. His fingers were interlocked with Michael’s. Even though his body was on the verge of collapsing because of the tremendous energy, he never thought of letting go. He said, "Michael, this was never your fault."
"Let go okay?" Michael found suffering in the demon’s eyes.
"No." The demon said. "I don’t want to live that long alone." I waited too long for you.
Michael looked at him and reached out to touch the demon’s cheek. He said, "God has forgiven you."
The demon laughed lowly. He said, "But I haven’t forgiven you." He kissed Michael’s lips.
Angel looked at two who were kissing and was already unable to speak. The two skeletal dragons by her side had already turned into ashes and had scattered in the air because of the holy light.
The necromancer magic on the continent was swept away but the great light energy and all the creatures that should have rested in peace once again returned to the ground.
Angel felt a sense of loss and by her ear echoed a holy song.
It was Michael who was singing. He was looking at the demon, his expression gentle.
The demon was disappearing along side with Michael, their wings overlapping, like darkness and light.
Angel heard Michael’s last words to her. Michael said, "Angel, live on well."
Before Angel could answer Michael she felt pain in her eyes——The light became several times brighter and forced her to close her eyes.
When she opened them again, she only saw a white flower.
The demon and angel had disappeared.
"Michael Daren." Angel staggered over and knelt before the little white flowers, her tears dripping on it little by little.
Angel cupped the little flower in her hands and looked at it carefully. She found that the center of the flower was black with little flickering lights inside it.
So this flower, was it the demon or the angel? Angel gently kissed the petals and fell on the grassy earth, not wanting to open eyes ever again.
In the spring the next year, the light continent was full of such white flowers. Later, people called this year the era of light, implying that the darkness had disappeared and light had returned to the mainland——In the end, the age of Annihilation was never repeated on this continent and Angel threw away her black cloak and returned to the church with the pope’s scepter in hand.
The years that follow are another story.
