-The sunlight gets inside the window, it's warm like a flower covered with bees. As it will be in your case... You will be warm, cold, but never hurt...
I close back the door. Micolash is getting more close to our objective. Yet, I feel like I haven't helped on His birth and mission.
The steps I give on His church aren't welcome, for now, non-existent ears. I better go take a breath and clear out my mind.
-... It told you not!!! Crap!!! -That's the voice of Clerish. He's in the middle of two pillars, with spear on hand. He's bleeding.
-Cler! Cler! What happened? Who hurt you?
-The Death Angel, Edwark! He escaped, he killed half of the humanoid Demons and ran with a gun. -He explained while grabbing with force the stick of his golden spear, his yellow pupil was almost infected with redness due to the crying.
-Don't you worry, I'll help you find him.
-Thank you! -He stands up along his wings and creepy smile, and always with his right eye covered with his black hat, we grab hands and start with our way to the basement.
Everyone is dead.
-AHH!!! Micolash will be so mad!!!
-It's alright, let's check if the other's still below.
It smells like roses, this means the other Angel's still around.
-Wait here. -I said...-
-Wait!
-Ouch! -He grabbed me from my horns of deer and pulled me back. -What?! -I screamed, trying not to hit him with the claws instead of fingers I have.
-What if he's armed?!
-Clerish, you are exaggerating, is just an Angel. And it's the Sad Angel. Let's go together.
-O... Okay.
We open the door. It's cold, the smell gets stronger as the seconds advance.
The Sad Angel is lying on the floor as always, his golden wings are contaminated with Demon blood, the feathers are falling like the saliva that flies away once you sneeze.
-Angel, where is the Death Angel? -I asked.
-It's just a kid... He couldn't have gone too far...
-I know you know where he is. -Clerish ordered.
-I can... ignore your orders...
-If you don't obey them, you'll be not seeing Swinzish today or never.
-Micolash! -We both screamed, trying to contain the fear.
-Yes? -He said, with a smile.
-O... W... What... Did you end already? -I asked trying not to stutter.
-Yes. Angel, please answer now.
The Angel covers his face with his wings before start crying.
-He's on the white trees... Near the water of Limbo... Surrounded with the children of a now death God... -The Sad Angel said between tears and shaking.
-Hah... -Micolash probably knows by now that Buntrex failed. -Clerish, I thought you sent Magnavolt to kill the humans that were entering to our territory.
-Yes, I did sent him, but the humans have weapons that he couldn't survive to...
-I see... -Just like that? He left like nothing happened.
Micolash P.O.V.
Clerish has been delaying the demons, and this will help on giving them more advantage, if the Death Angel is still alive, then the humans would have a bigger chance to win. Things seems to be falling apart. Magnavolt was a high ranking Demon, yet, he died to a human weapon. How pitiful...
Only a couple of days before everything ends, and He gets born, or that was before that kid escaped. I'll have to precipitate things now. I'll consult it with Swinzish before doing something in vain and against me.
I drop the pencil, leaving the useless blueprint on the table which will work for nothing against an army that counts with the support of metal and electricity. What chances do I have against that?! The demons are stupid blind cats that aren't worth an eye of the Sad Angel, they trust on their power thinking they are better than the weapons of the humans, seconds later they are no longer on hell or heaven nor anywhere!
-Uff... An eye of the Sad Angel, huh? -I'll have to wait until the Red Moon arrives, though.
I better get going before he decided on his own I will not go see him.
As soon as I get closer to the little house, I feel the scent of blood.
-AHA, AHH!!! AHHH!!! -The door flies away and a Demon dog on fire runs away. -I am melting!!! -The Demon dog falls to the ground, the scent gets stronger.
-Oops... You weren't supposed to see that.
-So that's the reason why it always smells like this.
-Yup, it is. Wanna come in?
-Of course. -Swinzish started wearing a golden eye mask a long time ago. The white clothes similar to a priest, I don't know.
I grab the door and put it back to its position. There's a corpse of a Demon wolf on a stretcher with the chest open and its guts out. Swinzish kicks the corpse of the Demon to the floor.
-What were you trying to do?
-Ah, of which one are we talking about?
-Both.
-Well, with the Demon dog, -He started to explain while making some tea. -I was trying to save him, I put some bandages, said some curses... but in the end what this book said was that "if anything already written doesn't work, the only option is the fire", but then he just ran away like a mad man!
-But... weren't you supposed to only burn the hurt part?
-Probably. Oh, and about the Demon wolf, he ate a bullet, I was trying to extract it, but I don't know why he died!
-Me neither. Swinzish, do you think I made a mistake about Clerish? His name got revealed a while ago. As soon as he leaves His church...
-Don't you worry. Even though he looks dumb, I'm sure he won't let the humans portray his face.
-Why? -He looks confused.
-Because he would have died with the rest in the front lines if it weren't because you saw something on him... -Before he could end his answer, I enterfere.
-Changing of topic, the Death Angel escaped to lost territory, there's a group of humans with weapons even stronger than the others. So I was thinking about doing a ritual, but not for Him... but for us.
-Micolash, you really want to kill the last Angel?
-He is not the last.
-You know how hard it was to stole them!
-I'm not going to kill him, Swinzish, I'm just going to grab... something from his face.
Micolash makes the form of a circle with his fingers as he moves them to his right eye, Swinzish maintains himself quiet for a minute before saying a word.
-If that's the case, then I guess it'll be fine. If the power he gives you is enough to summon more Demons from the Blood Path, it'll be easier to find the Death Angel. But it'll also be better if you wait until the Red Moon to take off his eye, for now, just do the script with your blood, cover his eyes, and start to write this on his back with the holy dagger. -He gives me a paper with different instructions, it has to be on midnight. -You already know how to do the preparatives.
-Right.
-Alright. Now please leave, I'll try to bring back to live this wolf.
Clerish declared war on Sinny, a city in the middle of Clerish's other wars. After Clerish started to get serious, Sinny closes his borders so that no soul can escape from the monsters out of the Clerish's sleeve…
