Chapter 126 – Those who continue the trajectory
“Forever.”
&
The sky split open.
The red pillar of light shattered into pieces, and shattered particles of light covered the sky.
The blue sky turned red.
A forced twilight covered the world.
Night comes.
The sunset spreads out.
The purple that arose from the end of dusk presses down on the world, spreading a slimy texture.
Those who had eyes could not help but see.
Those who had ears had no choice but to listen.
Wings cover the sky.
An absolute command is heard.
It wasn’t just Lucas, Belkian, and Fran.
The demons also looked to the sky.
The same goes for the demons and their followers.
Those who were detained in the system to be offered as sacrifices also looked up at the sky with blank faces.
There was a holy beauty beneath the blood-red sky.
A triangular helmet engraved with a red inverted cross, long shoulder guards, and golden wing-shaped protective gear covering the waist and back.
Twelve wings turned into light.
Each one of them emitted a different colored light from its end, dazzling the eyes of those who saw it.
Auriel, Archangel of Judgement.
Many people could not help but admire the majestic and beautiful appearance that seemed to come out of a sacred fire.
Finally, there was someone who knelt down and prayed, thinking that it was a hand of salvation coming down from heaven.
Some people cried in gratitude.
Please save me.
help.
Many of those detained in the system wept and prayed.
And their prayers were delivered without fail to the Archangel who appeared in the sky above the system.
Pleading, entreaties and tears.
Auriel smiled. She laughed in amazement.
“It hasn’t changed at all.”
You guys are always like that.
They never think about standing up on their own, they just keep begging to be saved.
Leeches that continue to live by sucking the blood of those who pity them.
Those filthy things that shouldn’t exist.
Auriel grabbed the Sword of Judgement.
At that moment, Belkian shouted.
Scarlett quickly turned her gaze to the ground. She looked at the people who were being held in the system.
“no.”
At that moment, Auriel swung the Sword of Judgement without realizing it.
At that moment Lucas knew.
What Auriel was attacking was not just a part of the system.
“Get down!”
Fran shouted like thunder. Velkian waved his hand, causing the undead to leap into the sky. Not to attack. It was an incredibly foolish method, but to block the attack.
“Coming.”
It was the moment when Caesar spoke.
A light burst out from the sky.
A flash of light rose from the blood-red sky, and hundreds, thousands – no, tens of thousands – of blades of light began to rain down on the ground like a torrential downpour.
Kwagagagagagagagagagagagagaga-!
All sounds were suppressed.
It swallowed up all the sounds.
In the enforced silence, the screams of people did not resonate.
The cries were also crushed by the heavy silence.
The whole world seemed to be dyed blood red.
The crimson blade struck the ground, piercing everything in its path.
“Ah …
Even Adelaide, always bright and cheerful, couldn’t help but feel fear.
Inside the veil, she burst into tears.
Tears flowed endlessly down her pale cheeks.
People die.
The monsters die.
All those who have entered the system are wiped out before the impartial judgment of light.
The demons were no different.
Those who roamed the system could not even think of blocking the sword of judgment called by the archangel himself.
It was a story between the Archangel and the Overlord that they would cooperate until the Great Summoning occurred.
Neither Auriel nor even Asmodeus cared about the survival of the lowly creatures.
“Wake up!”
Caesar shouted loudly and grabbed Adelaide by the collar.
Belkian had created a shield out of the undead – a meat shield, to put it bluntly – but it was no match for the Sword of Judgement.
The swords of judgment poured down through the undead’s defenses, so this place was no safe zone.
“Come to me!”
Lucas’ desperate scream reached through the roar.
Lucas, who had drawn a long, pure white sword energy from Clausolas, desperately pushed away the swords of judgment pouring down from above his head.
Kwagagagagaga-!
The heavy rain did not stop easily.
Therefore, it was impossible to completely block it.
“no!”
The Sword of Judgement pierced the shoulder of Sun Song.
The Sword of Judgement slashed at Kaisa’s back as she flew in place of Scarlett, and the old swordsman’s right arm was destroyed in place of his unconscious disciple.
Lucas wasn’t safe either.
The Sword of Judgement shattered and created fragments that covered his entire body in blood.
Fran, too, could no longer maintain Orion’s form, reverting to human form, and Belkian lost almost all of the undead he had summoned.
And then at some point.
The heavy rain finally stopped.
Belkian now kicked away the undead, leaving only husks behind, revealing the sky.
No, it was so close to collapsing that it was impossible to even maintain the shells any longer.
The sight of the system was visible to all.
Adelaide, who had been feeling nauseous, lifted her veil and vomited.
It was no exaggeration to say that she was the most beautiful of the Pleiades, but even her radiant appearance could not capture the attention of others.
That’s ridiculous.
I couldn’t even utter those short words.
In just a few dozen seconds, the appearance of the system completely changed.
The monsters that numbered in the tens of thousands were all killed and turned into corpses, and the more than 100,000 people who had been detained in the system were also wiped out.
The buildings collapsed and fell apart, losing their original form.
The largest city on the continent was now just a remnant of its former self.
Caesar let out a gasp.
It wasn’t just because of the pain.
It was fear.
It was terrifying.
Fran did the same.
He breathed heavily and thought of the Demon Prince who had driven the Paragon Kingdom to destruction.
What Belkian thought of was Malekith, the ancient black dragon that covered the southern skies.
Both were powerful beings.
They were truly powerful people who deserved to be described as god-like.
But it doesn’t reach that level.
It cannot even be compared to the being that sits high above the sky.
Scarlett looked at the sky.
Lucas also saw Auriel looking down at the ground with Clausolas hanging down.
I realized it instinctively.
Auriel, she is, the celestial judge.
He was not a god-like being.
He was a true god.
&
Sarah and Leon, who had been fighting frantically, raised their heads without realizing it and looked in the direction of the system.
The red pillar of light disappeared.
But I didn’t think that Uther and Cordelia’s group had succeeded.
No one could have such thoughts while looking at the blood-red sky.
The two looked at each other.
I had a gut feeling that something was wrong.
&
Count Hresvelg, who had been encouraging the ravens, realized that the tide had turned.
The monsters’ power has grown, albeit only slightly.
And even at this very moment, it was growing stronger.
It was still at a minimal level.
But if the current growth rate continued, it was clear that there would be no way out later.
‘Why.’
Count Hresvelg turned his head reflexively and looked at the system. He realized beyond understanding.
The sky of the system was dyed blood red.
There was a reason in that sky.
&
“It’s shaking.”
The witch of the western forest knew.
I could now understand what was happening.
The moment Archangel Auriel forcibly descended upon the Pleiades, the Eye of the Scale began to shake.
Asmodeus took advantage of the ripples caused by the arrival of a gigantic being called the Archangel.
Beyond the blood-red sky, the gates of hell were opening.
A huge door that cannot even be compared to anything before.
The greater the damage the Archangel inflicted on the world, the greater the ripples would be, and the power of those ripples would be the driving force that would open the gates of Hell even wider.
The change that came about because of it.
The armies on all sides are strengthened.
As hell gets closer, the power of the monsters grows stronger, and the demons are able to unleash their true powers.
Naturally, the disasters rooted in hell would become even stronger.
Auriel had to be stopped.
The only way to resolve the situation was to stop her, somehow reclaim the bloody sky, and close the gates of hell.
Otherwise, the mere passage of time would have led to an irreversible situation.
Armies on all sides are annihilated.
Demons and demons spread throughout the Pleiades, committing terrible massacres.
What happens then is the great tribulation.
What awaits at the end is the destruction of Pleiades due to the Great Summoning.
The witch of the western forest clasped her hands together.
I looked at the system while praying to someone I didn’t know.
&
Auriel swung her sword with an indifferent expression.
As the twelve wings spread wide, the colorful feathers at the tips of them scattered into the air.
It was a beautiful sight.
Light scattering under the blood-red sky.
Angel feathers fluttering in the wind.
But those who barely survived could all tell.
That beauty, so magnificent, is yet another omen of despair.
Light rose from hundreds of feathers that danced down from the sky.
Each and every one of them had the appearance of an angel.
Pure white angels with beautiful female faces, a pair of wings, and a sword in hand.
They looked at the ground.
He raised his sword with a bright smile.
Enchanted by their beauty, he looked into the eyes of the survivors who were asking for salvation this time, and swung his sword joyfully.
They were lowly angels.
But it was an existence that ordinary humans could not handle.
A thousand angels roamed the island, annihilating the survivors.
The sight of angels smiling brightly and continuing to slaughter people regardless of age or gender was terrifying in itself.
“Stop it, stop it… we have to.”
Fran could barely form words.
Belkian agreed.
But it was difficult to even deal with the angels rushing towards us right away.
Belkian’s undead army was annihilated. Although they did resurrect the dead undead, they were too numerous to be a real force.
Fran was also exhausted. The land of the system lost its strength due to a series of disasters.
I could no longer summon the spirits.
“Eww!”
Scarlett screamed and swung her sword.
He created space by slashing at the rushing angels.
Her eyes were straight ahead, but she couldn’t get the image of Kai’sa lying on the ground, groaning in agony as she took the direct hit from the Sword of Judgement in her place.
The red wind that became one with the Phoenix flew up.
He was madly advancing, burning the angels with the flames of the flames, but he was losing his power little by little.
Lucas swung his sword.
And I saw.
The archangel was descending.
They were settling on the ground, looking down at the ground with indifferent faces, and observing themselves with eyes as if observing ants.
Auriel’s feet touched the ground.
At that moment, a ripple occurred.
Golden ripples spread out continuously, accompanied by a beautiful melody that sounded like a song.
The first time was bearable.
But after two, three, and four times, it became difficult to even stand still.
Scarlett collapsed, vomiting blood, Fran sank to the ground, clutching her heart. Belkian could no longer stand.
The red wind has fallen.
Caesar’s face turned pale as the wound that had barely healed burst open again.
Lucas didn’t fall.
With a heart of steel and an unyielding will, he lifted Clausolas.
The light of the Holy King has been rekindled once again.
Auriel saw it.
He stared blankly at the human rushing towards him, piercing through the angels.
And expressed his displeasure.
“You’re insulting Solari.”
How dare you defile that child’s sword.
Sent the thought.
And that was enough.
Clausolas, who was in Lucas’s hand, shook and tore Lucas’ palm and flew up. As if it were a lie, it returned naturally to Auriel.
“Lie down and die.”
Auriel’s words became a command.
An overwhelming force crushed Lucas, who had lost his sword. He forced him to his knees and knocked him down.
“Cough!”
Lucas vomited blood. He had already been pushed over by the crowd and could no longer move.
“Luca-!”
Scarlett’s scream was left unfinished.
The angels’ swords pierced her body.
She was pierced through her back, chest, thighs, and waist by four swords, and she collapsed, bleeding from every orifice.
The angels trampled on Fran, stabbed him in the chest with their swords, and cut off Belkian’s arms.
Auriel took a step forward amidst the merciless violence.
The fallen swordsman covered in blood looked at his agent whom he had tried to protect until the end.
“Maximilian.”
Auriel hated everything that existed in the Pleiades.
But if there is one thing I have any affection for, it would be the agent in front of me.
“Song of the Sun!”
The angel’s sword was thrust into Sunsong’s chest.
The angels trampled on the back of the Red Wind, who was howling and screaming. They stabbed her in the stomach with a knife as if they were collecting insects, making her unable to move.
Die.
Everyone dies.
The heartbeat becomes smaller and smaller until it finally stops.
“Ah-U-R-I-L-E!”
At that very moment, rage erupted from the ground.
The dazzling light of the sun illuminated the sky.
Cordelia Chase.
Successor of Solari.
A massive beam of light radiated from her wings and hail.
Auriel looked at her with a surprised face, and Landius took advantage of her confusion.
