"She's so beautiful..." Elizabeth's eyes sparkled with fervor and an obsessive feeling took hold within her. She felt a warmth in her chest, and for a few brief moments, she lost control of herself, blinking a few times, then shaking her head with a frown. She stopped thinking about it, turning her gaze back to the screen...
"Oh..." Seraphine covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes shining as a white aura with golden streaks began to emanate from her. With a wide smile, she fell to her knees, clasping her hands as if in prayer. "Sister... sister..."
Emilia looked at them with a strange expression, but she felt the same sensation. It was difficult to explain, but it was a warm feeling that filled her completely and brought infinite joy... Just from seeing one of them, a Seraph... one in person, a small smile appeared on her lips. "God's Descent," that's what they call it in the church. Technically, they're not wrong. Emilia placed a hand over her chest. "We're practically goddesses among humans..." she murmured.
"Well... I agree with that, but... the downside," Elizabeth pointed at the screen, "is that you lose control..." She sighed in annoyance and glanced briefly at Seraphine. She wasn't at all human anymore; the soul that once resided in Seraphine's body had been devoured or, rather, imprisoned by the Seraph. It had taken her body and her life away... Elizabeth looked at another screen showing the young Daniela—another woman who had the power to imprison a Seraph.
"We can't let this continue," Emilia said, staring at the screen. The sky had turned red as if it were boiling, and it kept expanding, now reaching an astonishing 1,000 kilometers...
Elizabeth glanced at Seraphine, who was still praying for some reason, and pouted. "Just activate it, we need space," she said indifferently. "We still have to talk with Evelyn, and from the looks of it... I don't think she wants to talk politely; she's even broken the event seal. We can't waste any more time."
"Seriously... I told you it was excessive," Emilia touched her forehead, already feeling a headache coming on. "Do you think there will be casualties?" She tilted her head slightly, then widened her eyes. "Wait... what am I saying? They can use the stone!" She was a bit stunned by what she had just said...
"It's affecting you... I can feel it," Elizabeth opened her mouth wide, pausing for a few moments. Pulling a red stone from her pocket, she looked at the various screens before her, a dark smile appearing on her lips. With a bit of force... the stone shattered in seconds. "Let the real Event begin!" she declared with a loud laugh!
An event as grand as this... A Seraph has descended into the mortal world—a radiant being practically created by God in the heavens has set foot on Earth. Few know of these creatures; you could count them on your fingers. So... how on earth did they manage to keep this situation under control... how did they do it? The sky has turned red, the temperature has increased drastically, it feels like the apocalypse is happening, not to mention the towers of fire rising in the flames... how will they explain this to the academy staff...
With a smoke screen... blame the demons, who else? That easy. But of course... gripping the chains in my hands tightly... I feel the ground tremble as if it's splitting open, with hot smoke billowing from the cracks...
The 100-kilometer capsule has shattered, along with the descent of the Seraph of the End...
"Damn humans...!!!" The demon lord clutched his chest with his hands, his body shaking violently, a dark mist swirling around him...
"A sudden and forced transformation, without his consent..." I murmured to myself... right now it's impossible for me to get close; if the demon keeps resisting, he might explode... a soul explosion, as it's called... few people know about the Seraphs, besides them, of course... after all, the one behind all this and the mastermind was none other than Elizabeth... the one who pushed Evelyn to her limits...
[Evelyn Red Rose (The Fifth Seraph)] [Status: Semi-open]
[Corruption Level: 0%] [Fourth Seraph: Sealed (99%)]
"99%..." I couldn't do anything; all I could do was warn Evelyn, but it was inevitable. It had to happen, after all, just because Elizabeth wanted it to happen... an innocent, fun-loving, kind character, who puts on a perfect front, as she calls herself "Perfection!" But beneath that facade is a cruel, calculating person determined to do whatever is necessary for her own benefit. You could say she's the villain of the story, but in reality, she just wants answers, like Emilia... but Elizabeth is more resolved to do the dirty work...
"AHHHHHHH!!!" Releasing an inhuman scream, my skin prickled with danger... quickly, ducking my upper body, I watched in slow motion as a bright scythe passed centimeters from my head... without wasting another second, I raised my body, moving quickly... I began to swing the chains in my hands... my eyes were wide open... mist started to form around me, and from it, I could hear silent footsteps...
"He must be hurt..." I thought to myself... after all, he was forced against his will. He must be injured, that's for sure... the scent of blood is strong...
"Die!!!" The howl echoed with resentment. He threw his own scythe, and I barely managed to dodge it... running like a madman, his claws gleamed...
He lost all composure and dignity... now he was only following his instincts, like a beast, with grotesque wings jutting from his back. One was malformed, with a terrible wound bleeding profusely, his face deformed, half of it remaining intact while the other half had transformed into his demonic form, huge and piercing his flesh...
"Where are you... Arthur?"
"HUHH?!!!" A voice...
"ARGHHTTT!!!" Eyes wide open, I looked down... a sword protruded from my abdomen, and blood began to flow from it... "Ughh!" Coughing up a mouthful of blood... I clenched my teeth, glancing out of the corner of my eye... it was another demon... a woman in a black outfit just like mine... "Did you have fun in hell? My master wants to see you... if possible, right now..."
