Chapter 1099
Chapter 1099
Everything grew still.
Just like in the movies, Archangel Gabriel and the archangels appeared. Everything about them was white: their pristine wings, divine armor, even their swords, which were bursting with holy power, as they pointed them at Minhyuk.
Leaving Aemira behind, Minhyuk walked toward them. The sound of the Battle God’s Achievement resonated worldwide and declared this place a battlefield.
[For the sake of just one of his people, the Battle God raises his sword.]
Was Minhyuk considered “evil” for glaring coldly at the angels hailed as “good”?
[He heard the sorrow and despair that his people had suffered from.]
[He had heard the story of his people. Despite being innocent of any crimes, his people had been imprisoned in a small fish bowl-like space for thousands of years.]
[Even though he faced countless restrictions and the rules had warned him that he would face millions of troops, he continued to walk forward alone. This is because he had seen the truth.]
[His people asked him, ‘Why are you doing this?’]
[And the greatest and noblest monarch answered, ‘Because you are one of my people.’]
One of the Calamity Guardians landed roughly in front of Minhyuk. It was fifteen meters in height and had a fish-like face. It wouldn’t be wrong to say it was half-dragon and half-fish. In the past, it had wreaked havoc and tried to destroy Heaven. Under the noble and lofty power of the archangels, it then became their hand and foot.
Kihyeeeeeeeek!
Minhyuk looked infinitely smaller than the gigantic being before him. Even so, he still charged forward.
“You have done something that you should not have done.”
[He ran for the sake of the “truth” and the horror that ruined just one person's life.]
“Your greed had forced her to live in that small circle of space for thousands of years.”
The gigantic Calamity Guardian shot to the sky. It opened its huge mouth and bared its 70 centimeter-long teeth at Minhyuk. They looked thick and sharp enough to snap someone in half. With that figure and a level at Level 800, it truly deserved the name Heaven’s Calamity Guardian.
However, Minhyuk held his swords and evaded the Calamity Guardian’s wide-open mouth. He ripped through the gigantic being’s torso as it swam freely above them. With that attack, it fell with blood spurting out of its enormous body.
After cutting the gigantic being down, Minhyuk ran past it without stopping. Aemira continued to weep while Verak stared at Minhyuk with awe and respect. After all, Minhyuk was charging toward the enemy for the sake of a single person.
The screams of the gigantic Calamity Guardian announced the beginning of the war. With the rise of the archangels’ sword, millions of angels charged toward Minhyuk. They did not know the reason why. They charged forward, believing that the archangels were the good and the man was the evil for breaking the prison.
Uwaaaaaaah!
The Battle God finally clashed with the roaring army. Even though he was only one person, he was pushing back the waves of troops akin to a tsunami created by the tumultuous seas. The army of angels was not his match.
The sky was ripped open, and the archangels released hundreds of thousands of monsters shackled by the neck. The Battle God stepped on one of the angels, using him as a springboard as he leaped to the skies and created hundreds of swords. A heavy downpour of swords pierced through the ferocious monsters in a never-ending cycle and ripped screams after screams from their mouths.
Seeing her army fall with every swing of the man’s sword, Archangel Gabriel was furious.
“Next generation Battle God, receive your judgment.”
Archangel Gabriel’s clear and beautiful voice rang in Minhyuk’s ears. It was the epitome of the word “holy.”
Even so, Minhyuk did not stop. Viel’s Puppet Doll and the Ego Chain Sickle continued to cut down the monsters while Minhyuk cut, stabbed, and swung his sword at the army of angels covered with holy power.
Every swing of their blades forced countless angels to die. In the end, Archangel Gabriel released the Calamity Guardians protecting the East, the West, and the North.
Roar!!!
A gigantic white tiger appeared and lunged at Minhyuk. It bared its fangs to bite Minhyuk but was easily blocked by Minhyuk’s sword. In response, Minhyuk pushed his sword deep into the mouth of the white tiger.
Stab–!
“ROAR!”
Minhyuk stabbed the white tiger Calamity Guardian once, twice, three times, disregarding its painful wails. He then proceeded to slash and cut the white tiger thirty times in a row. The white tiger struggled and finally landed a heavy blow with its front paws. But Minhyuk ignored it and continued to cut it down without mercy.
The dragon-like Calamity Guardian swam through the air and shot toward Minhyuk to stop him from attacking the white tiger.
Bang–!
The moment the dragon-like Calamity Guardian’s head made contact with Minhyuk, a Calamity Guardian resembling an eagle swooped in.
Swoosh–
Minhyuk was sent flying by their attacks. But he quickly regained his balance and charged forward once again.
The Calamity Guardians immediately came back to their senses. Using their unique attributes, they bit, scratched, and lunged at Minhyuk to exert pressure on him.
Archangel Gabriel could finally see the victory. Even if the one in front of them was the next generation Battle God, there was no way he could deal with four of the Calamity Guardians simultaneously. An arrogant smile formed on Archangel Gabriel’s face, unbefitting of an angel.
However, something unbelievable happened. A blazing flame shot out from the man’s sword and swept away the gigantic Calamity Guardians. The sight left Archangel Gabriel in disbelief. She could not take her eyes off of the blazing black flames.
As she watched Minhyuk leave the flames, Gabriel asked again. “Why? Why are you doing such nonsense? Why are you attacking us so desperately?”
Heaven and Hell had to maintain a smooth relationship with the Land of the Gods. Yet the Battle God standing in front of her ignored them and continued to cut down the charging soldiers of the army of Heaven. Then, Gabriel heard the most shocking words from the man’s mouth.
Minhyuk asked, “Is Aemira guilty?”
“...!”
Gabriel frowned. Did this man know something? Or did he hear something from Aemira after meeting her? No, that was impossible. Aemira did not even know the reason why. She only lived in this place as if this was the most natural thing in her life.
However, Archangel Gabriel gave an answer that she should not have.
“What nonsense are you talking about?”
Minhyuk gritted his teeth, his speed at sweeping through the army increasing exponentially. He sneered as he looked at the archangel, who pretended she knew nothing.
“AEMIRA!!!” Minhyuk shouted. “You are innocent!”
Gabriel’s face grew ugly. Her eyes were stuck on Minhyuk’s figure as she listened to the words spilling from his mouth.
“Many other archangels put pressure upon Archangel Gabriel a long time ago!”
Gabriel’s eyes grew wide. She could tell from the man’s words that he knew the truth of that incident.
“Kill him.”
Archangel Gabriel led the other archangels. They spread their white wings and sent five swords flying toward Minhyuk.
One of the archangels released an overwhelming holy power that suppressed Minhyuk. Another released a power that lifted him to the sky. Another archangel sent beautifully crafted chains shining with white light and bound his entire body. A beautiful pentagon with Minhyuk at the center was created. Anyone watching the scene would tell that the angels were the good.
Even so, the struggling Minhyuk continued to shout, “But the truth was she was terrified! She was trembling in fear after being attacked by countless angels!”
A long time ago, a revolt happened in Heaven.
“She cut down many angels who targeted her constantly to the point that she began to doubt everyone around her. Your father and mother were among the people who stood by her.”
Aemira’s parents were the most faithful and the closest servants who worshiped Gabriel. One was the angel who supported the sky, while the other was the angel who enriched the earth.
“But Gabriel began to doubt even them.”
“Shut up!”
The angels' swords, which surrounded Minhyuk in a pentagon, represented many things, such as balance, justice, truth, and good.
Ironically enough, the sword pushing at Minhyuk symbolized the truth.
Stab, stab, stab–!
The five swords tried to pierce through Minhyuk’s body.
“Absolute Defense.”
A flash of light appeared around Minhyuk as he successfully defended against all of the attacks that came his way. At the same time, black energy, which looked like it represented evil, erupted and swirled among the five brilliant lights that covered the pentagon of swords.
“Transcendence.”
Rumble–!
The chains that bound him slackened as the black energy exploded from his body. Freed, Minhyuk began to clash against the five brilliant lights aimed at him. Of course, he never stopped talking.
“In the end, Gabriel gave her orders. She judged that they were the masterminds of the revolt and ordered her men to go after them.
“Then, in front of all of the archangels, the troops of the army, and the heavenly dwellers, she executed them. On that day, the sky and the earth disappeared. freewebnσvel.cøm
“‘The sin of the parent is the sin of the child. Their child is also guilty of treason.’ She said and did things that she should have never done. She cut up the sky, which had already died, and dug up the life nestled inside. Then, she gave her order. ‘Imprison this being carrying dirty blood in the most terrible prison for all eternity. Make this life an example to everyone!’”
Everyone in Heaven knew this truth. Everyone looked at Minhyuk with expressions as if asking why he was revealing this.
“Shut up!”
Archangel Gabriel moved faster to press Minhyuk even further. But it was not easy for them, even with their five brilliant lights, to deal with Minhyuk in the state of Transcendence.
“Right. That should be the obvious outcome for traitors. HOWEVER!!!”
Bang–!
Minhyuk struck one of the archangels down. Then, he used Like the Wind and appeared before Archangel Gabriel.
He grabbed the archangel by the collar and said, “Gabriel received a report two weeks later. It turned out that everything was a trick. It was a trick to eliminate the two most loyal people to Archangel Gabriel. Everything was a lie created by the angels who wanted to revolt.”
He continued, “She found out the truth. The ones that she executed with the most terrible punishment were the ones who fought desperately to protect her. They defended her and fought until the end but eventually fell because of a conspiracy.”
Then, Minhyuk snarled, “But, do you know what Archangel Gabriel said to the man who gave his report?”
Minhyuk recalled Gabriel’s expression on the report and said, “Is that so? I see. It seems like we lost some pretty precious people.”
Gabriel’s eyes widened when she heard those words. She could tell that Minhyuk was imitating her from the past. She struggled to get out of this man’s grip but could not.
Aemira, who learned the truth, felt a sadness far stronger and deeper than Minhyuk's. At the same time, a huge commotion erupted among the archangels and the troops.
Minhyuk continued, “The man, who reported to Archangel Gabriel, asked, ‘The sky and the earth are proven innocent. What shall we do now?’”
The man was asking if they should clear them of the false allegations. At that time, Gabriel had calmly and leisurely flipped the book pages in her hands and said, “What should we do? It happened a long time ago. I can’t put a stain on my reputation for something like that. Keep quiet, and don’t tell anyone about it.”
“...!”
“...!”
Many were left shocked by the words.
Gabriel unleashed a torrent of holy power and escaped from the grasp of Minhyuk, whose state of Transcendence had lifted. Then, she quickly drew her sword and cut the man down.
Even though the archangels heard a very shocking story, the four others still stabbed Minhyuk at the same time.
“Urk...”
Pierced by the five brilliant swords, Minhyuk looked just like the evil being punished by the good.
Despite vomiting a mouthful of blood, Minhyuk continued to speak. He said, “Is that how an angel is? You f*cking bastard!”
Gabriel, sporting a devilish expression completely incongruent with her status as an angel, roughly pulled her sword out of Minhyuk’s body.
At that point, Minhyuk’s HP had fallen below 6%. Thankfully, the truth was revealed. At this moment, Minhyuk sent a whisper to Verak.
[Minhyuk: Once I’m forced to log out, take Aemira and run straight to Hell.]
A bright light erupted from Gabriel’s sword, the sword that symbolized justice, as she swung at Minhyuk.
“...?”
Gabriel’s sword failed to swing. A considerable force appeared and stopped her from moving any further.
At the same time, a black stream of energy swirled into existence and revealed the figure of the monarch of Hell, the God of Death. Hell’s army had also started to march and make their way toward this place.
Gabriel could not understand it. Both she and the God of Death could not cross and enter the Boundary of Good and Evil as they pleased. The angels and the beings from Heaven were only able to ignore that rule for a short while because Minhyuk moved to destroy the Archangels’ Prison.
‘But how come they’re able to come here too?’
Then, she realized something. There were very few methods that would allow them to enter this place, but only one would work in this situation.
‘But that should be impossible.’
Since ancient times, the Battle God and the God of Death were known to be on bad terms. To be specific, the God of Death despised both Heaven and the Land of the Gods. They were like oil and water and could never be mixed.
But then, the God of Death said, “He is my friend.”
“...!”
Gabriel’s eyes widened at the unexpected words from the God of Death’s mouth.
Even Minhyuk was surprised by the words and the sudden appearance of the God of Death, especially because the God of Death looked at Minhyuk very worriedly.
