PATH OF THE STAR HUNTER

Chapter 36: Chapter 36 Faith

′′ Eskaylos I would like you to leave the people of the church to be managed by me′′ The archangel talk like she was asking for permission but her demeanor and presence clearly were saying another thing completely different.

The giant serpent stopped shooting lightning for a moment, slowly turned around to be face to face with the archangel again; it seemed to consider his options for an instant before a slightly exasperated sigh left his mouth.

′′ Haa. . . I have had enough fun and my revenge is done, the people of the church had their part in all this; but because of the favor you have done me by staying on the sidelines, I will leave the church in your hands. ′′ Speak Eskaylos.

′′ I, Katya, appreciate it, but I also have to issue a warning; don’t mistake my partiality for weakness Eskaylos. If you think that I did not feel your intention to assassinate me just now, then you are making a serious mistake; If you do it again, I wouldn’t mind making a nice fan with your feathers after ripping your head off. ′′ Say the archangel and there was no arrogance in her words only confidence and a severe warning.

Having issued him a warning, the archangel made a simple hand gesture as if she took air into her and then released it; then the stormy clouds in the sky rapidly agglomerated at a single point and dispersed in the next instant. The whole process only took a couple of seconds and the powerful storm that accompanied Eskaylos since he arrived on the battlefield was nowhere to be seen.

The snake was silent for a moment before proceeding to leave without saying another word, if I had to guess; I’d bet he’s ashamed or terrified of the fact that her power was treated so simply.

The archangel was silent for a moment before turning her attention to the small group of which I now was certain did indeed belong to some kind of church.

.....

′′ You swore loyalty and adoration to my race, asking only for protection and the blessings that my people would be so kind to bridle; but you dared lie to us and try to use us for your benefit. ′′ She wasn′t even asking, Katya was very sure that everything she was saying was true.

′′ Lady Katya things are not what they seem′′ They try to reply.

′′Silence. . . you are not worthy to say my name out loud, my people did not ask for your worship or make demands on your people; we protect and bless your people only for the innate kindness that characterizes us. We accept your faith as we have done in the past, with many races and worlds that sought our protection; but we will not be used as puppets. ′′ there was a lot of disdain and anger in her voice while she was looking at the humans like they were nothing more than a bunch insects.

She paused in her speech to see the response of the humans now kneeling before her, But she seemed disappointed when they just kept silent. Although she didn’t know what she expected when she had just told them to be quiet. . . of course I would not go out to correct her strange behavior either; I still want to live a little longer.

′′ I have demanded your silence because your words never needed to be heard, those of my kind have existed for longer than you are capable of registering or understanding, we have met many traitors in the past, the reason why we demand Faith for protection is only partially due to our need for it; the other reason is that we have a powerful sensitivity to the energy of faith. ′′ Katya says with a little bit of pride in her now dominant voice.

Seeing that she didn’t get any reaction from her speech, she could only continue.

′′ In words that you mortals understand, we know when someone is truly loyal to the celestial race and worships us with a sincere heart; so from the moment I arrived in his kingdom I knew that your faith had been lost. ”

For a moment the people of the church in front of the archangel seemed genuinely concerned, but they quickly calmed down as they dropped their pretenses and arrogantly stood in front of the being they were pretending to worship just seconds ago.

′′ We the great kingdom of Leykar do not need any protection or mercy of any kind, our faith is found only in our mighty king and the strength of the church; you beings who feed on our faith are nothing more than tools that we found convenient in the past. ′′ The leader of the church people speak almost screaming his words to the archangel.

Wow, those guys sure know how to seek their death, I venture to assume that their arrogance is because they believe that the archangel will not do to them any harm due to her nature; I on the other hand think she will vaporize the arrogant faces of them soon.

′′ The only reason you can finish your pathetic statements is that I find your arrogance and ignorance hilarious, but just like I told Eskaylos the storm-bearer; my race will not tolerate insults towards us.′′

The statement left her lips cherry red for less than a second, before with a single snap of her fingers; the man who had just acted so arrogantly dropped dead. Since the massacre ended, I have been approaching little by little the surroundings where this situation took place; even so, I did not see how or at what moment she attacked the man from the church. . . he just dropped dead, just like that.
