Chapter 116 – Solari, the Sun God
There were seven archangels in the world called Heaven.
There weren’t seven from the beginning.
The first to be born was Auriel, the Archangel of Judgement.
She was a being born of necessity.
The heaven before her was a world where evil arose from chaos and ran rampant, so much so that it would not be an exaggeration to call it hell.
The wind of angels gave birth to her.
The hope of the angels who were groaning under the oppression of evil caused the Archangel of Judgement to be born into this world.
Auriel judged the world.
She sharpened a hundred swords with her own hands and together with the angels who followed her, she destroyed the evil that was rampant in heaven.
Purification of the world.
Standing before the chaos, she instinctively realized that her mission was over.
Because a second archangel was born among the angels.
Auriel’s role was that of judgement.
Now that the judgment of evil has been completed, it is the role of other archangels to rebuild the world.
One by one, new archangels were born.
Raguel, Archangel of Justice.
Eros, the archangel of love.
Raphaela, Archangel of Healing.
Sariel, Archangel of Death.
Gabriel, Archangel of the Moon.
And the last archangel, Solari, the archangel of the sun who brings light to all of heaven.
Auriel cherished and loved all of her archangels, her brothers and sisters, but she loved Solari especially.
“Solari······.”
The highest place in heaven.
Auriel, who had been standing with her sword hanging down and watching the Pleiades, looked a little further away.
Long ago, I looked at Hell, which was on the verge of swallowing up Heaven.
Solari no longer exists.
He lost his life hundreds of years ago.
Eros, the Archangel of Love, and Gabriel, the Archangel of the Moon, who had descended to the Pleiades with her, were no more.
The Seven Archangels became the Four Archangels, and Auriel swore vengeance on the Solari.
“Auriel, are you there?”
Auriel turned her head at the cautious call. She could tell without looking.
It was Raguel, the archangel of justice.
“I have something to tell you.”
Auriel nodded. Even without that, Auriel herself had something to say to Raguel.
“Come this way.”
Raguel smiled sadly at Auriel’s soft call.
He spread his wings of madness, lamenting the changes that had occurred to Auriel since Solari’s death.
What we need to talk about is the dynamics of hell.
The movements of the great monarchs, who numbered from seven to five.
Auriel closed her eyes for a moment as she listened to Raguel’s story.
I thought of Solari’s face, which always smiled brightly like the sun.
&
“hi?”
Red-haired archangel.
A bright smile and a pleasant voice that will make you feel good just by seeing them.
Beneath the ring of light like the glory of the morning was a playful face.
Cordelia was momentarily speechless.
This expression appears frequently in records.
Solari is the most beautiful and charming of the seven archangels, so even the demons of Hell could not help but love her.
It wasn’t a lie, it was true.
nobility.
A woman who is not just pretty or not, but who is not worthy of any other word than noble.
But at the same time, he was very friendly.
Like a sister, like a friend, it seemed like she would talk to me at any moment.
A golden halo and eight wings symbolizing the glory of the morning.
Cordelia unconsciously clasped her hands together.
Because I wanted to pray.
However, Solari narrowed his brows slightly as if he was troubled by Cordelia’s appearance, then smiled mischievously and said.
“Let me say it again. Goodbye.”
And when he shook her hand slightly, Cordelia also came to her senses. She awkwardly raised her hand and greeted him.
“Oh, hello. No, hello.”
When I greeted him with a blush on my face, Solari laughed out loud like Caesar.
“cute.”
“Uh, um… yes.”
It was a question that didn’t need to be answered, but I did, and Solari burst into an even brighter smile.
“Ha, I’m so lucky. I have such a cute and lovely irony.”
Solari muttered quietly as if talking to himself and sat down quietly.
The wind blew under the blue sky, and flower petals fluttered across the pure white flower field.
And gestures.
A look in his eyes that seemed to tell him to come here and sit down.
Cordelia hesitated for a moment, but soon gathered her courage. Although she was a little hesitant, she walked over to Solari and sat down nearby.
“Come a little closer. I want to hug you.”
“Yes? Uh… yes.”
It was Cordelia who belonged to the Solari lineage.
It may be a bit of an exaggeration, but Solari was like an older sister, mother, and distant ancestor to Cordelia.
“Yeah, it’s cute. It’s warm. It’s kind, too.”
Cordelia’s face turned even redder at Solari’s words.
It was not so much the situation of being held in Solari’s arms like a teddy bear, but the fact that Solari had praised her that made her feel ecstatic.
“I’m glad a kid like you came to me.”
“A child like me?”
Cordelia, who had been burying her face in Solari’s chest, lifted her head slightly and asked.
Now that I think about it, what on earth is going on in this situation?
Wasn’t this the tomb of Solari?
So who on earth is the woman in front of me?
Could it be an idea like Garius who was outside?
“Yes, that’s right. It’s an ideology. The regrets left at Solari’s grave, the wishes left by those who miss Solari, etc… the dregs that have been created… make me so sad. A trace? A lingering mark? Well, I can’t even feel sadness in the first place.”
The last smile looked so sad that Cordelia unconsciously tightened her arms around Solari, and Solari smiled again.
“Good. Yeah, good.”
Solari, who had been stroking Cordelia’s head a few times, pinched Cordelia’s cheek as if he was letting out a shiver of excitement.
“Wow, look at this feeling. It’s no joke.”
And so on.
Cordelia had gotten used to being teased by Yuder so often these days, but she couldn’t help but feel strange when he spoke to her like that.
“Ugh, you’re so cute. I wish I could keep playing with you… but I guess that’s not possible. If I keep doing that, he’ll probably get mad.”
“yes?”
Wait, that guy?
“Oh, that guy. That guy who is super jealous.”
At this point, I think I know who you’re talking about.
That’s why Cordelia raised her voice again.
“Uder! Where is Uder now?”
“You’re facing me in a different flower field. But, um… this is really amazing.”
“Huh? What? No, really?”
“No, wait. I don’t know what you’re thinking, but it’s not like that. Oh, really. You’re not really interested in me?”
“yes?”
Putting aside the embarrassing content above, what is the last story?
You’re not interested?
“Oh, that’s a little bit hurtful. Do you know what I thought the first time I saw you?”
“What is it?”
“As expected, Cordelia is the prettiest.”
Cordelia’s face was a mess.
That idiot! Idiot! Idiot!
What the hell are you talking about!
“I didn’t say that. I just thought that.”
Solari, who was chuckling, pinched Cordelia’s cheek again, who was at a loss for what to do with embarrassment and joy.
“Anyway, don’t worry about Yu-ra. We’ll meet up soon after we finish our business.”
“What’s your business?”
“Oh, business. Yuder can’t do it, only you… My head was filled with dirty thoughts, but as everyone said, you’re kind, pure, pretty… Anyway, you’re the perfect person to be my successor, so only you can do it.”
Cordelia blinked again.
“Successor?”
“Oh, successor. Well, it’s not like I’m going to make you an archangel right away. You don’t have the ability to do that.”
Shrugging, Solari stood up from his seat and placed a hand on his ring.
“Halo of Solari.”
Her crown.
Deity of the sun.
“When Solari died, there were no proper angels left on Earth. The connection with Heaven was cut off – no, it had to be cut off.”
The sunset spread across the blue sky.
Night came with twilight, and again from far away the glory of morning awoke and broke the dawn.
Solari was underneath it.
He spread his eight wings wide and gently removed a small sun-like ring and placed it over Cordelia’s ring.
“It has been so long since Solari died. She had already expended so much power that she should have died in the first place. As a result, there is not much power left in Halo. But the Sun Godhead will be with you. And surely… the Sun’s light will shine when it is needed.”
Solari’s Halo became one with Cordelia’s Halo.
A soft, warm light enveloped Cordelia’s entire body.
“This isn’t your first time here. But this is the first time something like this has happened. I’m glad I can pass it on to you, even if it’s the first and last time.”
What are you talking about?
I couldn’t understand.
“I’m sorry, I can’t tell you the details. But you’ll find out soon enough.”
Cordelia could no longer see ahead.
My eyes slowly closed, and Solari’s voice gradually grew distant.
“The past always flies towards the future. No one can be free from the lofty flow of time.”
“Cordelia.”
“You are the child of destiny.”
“Please.”
“Please························save······.”
The voice was no longer heard.
Instead, other memories each spoke their own voice in Cordelia’s head.
The one who became a mine and took my sister’s life.
The one who slit Maia’s throat in front of Uther.
Himself fighting Lucas, who became a mine along with Yuder.
He smiled as he watched Lucas and Scarlett get married, albeit on the ruined ground.
And the last memory.
He was holding hands with Yuder, whispering his last words of love, and facing death together.
Cordelia shed tears in the midst of her confused memories. She cried and cried out for Uther.
Solari looked at Cordelia like that.
I thought as I watched Cordelia inherit the Halo of Solari.
The lofty flow of time.
A feeling of discomfort.
Memories that can’t be complete.
So it’s an imperfect plan.
No, even if your memory is intact, the reality is that you are bound to fail.
Will a miracle happen?
Can a miracle happen?
A crack appeared in the golden sky. The ground was scattered with the wind, and the shattered sky poured down, sparkling.
Solari looked at Cordelia again.
To whom should God pray?
I couldn’t figure it out.
But Solari prayed with both hands together for Cordelia.
“I hope…you can succeed.”
May his will work miracles.
Solari looked at the sky for the last time.
Under the breaking sky, a possibility came to mind.
That cheeky guy.
Another child of destiny.
He was not the one who wished for a miracle to happen, but the one who shouted that a miracle would definitely happen.
“And they lived happily ever after.”
Solari smiled slightly. He couldn’t watch, but he prayed again, hoping that it would be so.
Light covered the world.
Disappeared along with Solari.

“···Delia!”
A voice was heard.
“Cordelia!”
My memory was cut off. The memories that filled my head disappeared like grains of sand slipping through my fingers.
“Cordelia!”
“Uder!”
My mind suddenly snapped. I opened my eyes with a loud scream, and it was right in front of me.
Yuder Bayer.
A person I will love no matter how many times I am reborn.
Eternal companion.
“Are you okay? Does anything hurt?”
“It’s okay. It’s okay······.”
It was really okay. There wasn’t a single place that hurt. But the tears kept coming down, and Uther held Cordelia in his arms.
The warmth of the earth.
The smell of yudhers.
Sad memories are gone.
Cordelia, who had barely managed to pull herself together, sniffled a few times before gently pushing Uther away.
“Okay, sniff.”
“Hmph!”
After blowing my nose into a handkerchief, I finally came to my senses enough to look around.
“Here… where is it?”
It wasn’t the tomb of the stars.
It was a completely different place.
Grassland? Plain?
It was night, but I couldn’t tell the exact time.
A somewhat high spirit.
A wind laden with moisture.
‘summer?’
Cordelia blinked and looked at Uther again. Uther was looking at the sky, not his surroundings.
“Yuderya?”
He didn’t answer the call right away. Yuder looked up at the sky with a serious face and clenched his teeth.
“This is a big deal.”
“What, what?”
I quickly looked up at the sky, but there was nothing particularly strange. There were no meteors falling from the sky, or anything like that turning red like blood.
What is the story?
I haven’t used it properly yet, but it seems like it’s inherited Solari’s Halo properly.
But that was just then.
Cordelia suddenly blinked again.
I realized reality in a completely different way than Uder.
heat.
moisture.
The seasons have changed.
“Time has passed.”
Uder said.
It was judged by observing the changes in the constellations.
It was spring when I entered Solari’s tomb.
But now it was summer.
At least two months, maybe three months, passed. And what that means is-
“Wow!”
“Hit!”
“Take the castle!”
Boom! Boom! Boom!
At the sound of shouts and loud noises from afar, Uther and Cordelia reflexively turned their heads.
And finally, I realized where I was standing and what had happened in the past three months.
Plain of Silates.
The border between kingdoms and empires.
“The war has begun.”
Beyond the civil war, there is a war between the Kingdom of Cailun and the Argon Empire.
Uther and Cordelia jumped to their feet. Instead of arguing, they flew towards where the battle was taking place.
