Isaac, who had been unconscious for an unknown length of time, finally woke up from his deep sleep. As soon as he opened his eyes, he let out a cry of pain mixed with a low roar. The Doomsday Judgment descended by the Demon King seriously injured him and he suffered for several days.
After the fire burned, he felt that his entire soul was about to melt completely under the flames. Even though he had escaped from the sea of fire, the unbearable hot feeling still remained in his body and had not dissipated for a long time.<
/p>
The doomsday judgment descended by the devil is enough to burn everything to ashes. Only a true hero can barely withstand the power of the doomsday fire and find a chance to survive. Saint Isaac could not help but lament this encounter. If
It was not that he became a hero by luck. His final fate awaiting him would be no different from those who turned to ashes in the sea of fire, let alone save the girl who was also trapped in the sea of fire.
Thinking of the girl named Irene, Isaac's eyes suddenly widened. He tried to stand up, but saw golden chains tightly binding him. No matter how hard he struggled, he could not escape from the chains.
There were no girls around. Instead, the clanging sound of chains attracted the attention of the golden figure not far away.
"Are you awake?" The angel wearing golden armor and six wings flapped his wings and slowly flew to Isaac who was bound by chains.
Isaac raised his head numbly, only to see a brilliant light coming down on him. A seraph wearing a slim armor and holding a spiral sword was staring at him with a scrutinizing look on his face.
"Archangel...Gabriel." Looking at the Seraphim who was examining him, Isaac also recognized her identity and planned to bend down to salute, but had to give up because of the constraints of the chains.
That solemn yet heroic seraph was one of the three archangels who controlled Yunzhong City. According to Isaac's past status, it was impossible for him to be personally received by the archangel. Now he saw
The archangel appeared in front of him, and he himself was bound by golden chains. While Isaac was solemn, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised and didn't understand what was going on.
"Dear Archangel, please tell me, what happened? Why am I bound by chains?" Isaac's eyes widened and he couldn't help but ask.
"Perhaps this question should be answered by you." Gabriel's eyes were somewhat questioning and indifferent, "Saint Isaac, according to the oracle in the clouds, you were supposed to return to the clouds a few weeks ago.
Holy City, succeeded to the position of the Holy Judgment Angel, but you broke the promise. When the angels found you again, you were in the Mingyue City that was burned by the fire of doomsday, and you were holding a girl from the city in your arms." p>
"Irene..." Hearing this, Isaac couldn't help but feel nervous. His last memory still focused on the choice of saving the two girls. He didn't know what Irene's current situation was. Now that he heard Gabriel
At the mention of that name, Isaac quickly asked, "How is Eileen doing now? Is she okay?"
"Do you still have time to worry about that girl? I think it's better to worry about yourself more." Gabriel said lightly, without concealing his rebuke to Isaac, "Saint, do you know that you have broken the destiny?
Rule? Now you are no longer a righteous man who obeys fate and fights for justice in the world, but a completely depraved rebel with unforgivable sins. According to the words of those mortals, you are now a
A hero."
Gabriel glared at him, and his heroic face showed a bit of anger, and said: "You have violated the guidance of fate. I don't know why the Stigmata chose you to succeed the Holy Judgment Angel, but I think he
You must have made a mistake. You who broke your destiny are not qualified to obtain the authority of the Holy Judgment and associate with us and other archangels."
Isaac lowered his head. As a saint, he became a rebellious hero who defied fate. This was undoubtedly a provocation to the order of the entire Yunzhong City, and this was exactly what the devil wanted. The devil did not kill him.
, what awaits him is an experience more painful than death. He has brought shame to the name of a saint and lost the glory of the past. This is the reason why he is bound.
"I know that I have made an unforgivable mistake during this trip. If the Stigmata plan to punish me for this, I will not have any complaints. The only thing I want to know is what is the situation of that girl?
Have I ever saved her from the doomsday judgment? Merciful Archangel, please answer my doubts."
Isaac gritted his teeth and said without any excuse for what he did. The only thing he cared about was the girl's situation.
Sensing the calmness and determination in Isaac's words, even Gabriel couldn't help but look at him one more time. Admittedly, she was extremely dissatisfied with Isaac for going against his fate and becoming a hero, and she didn't give him anything in her words.
She had a good face, but when she truly felt his touching firmness and kindness from the bottom of her heart, her attitude seemed to have changed a little.
"You can rest assured. When the angels found the girl, she was in a coma due to being in a hot environment for a long time and not being able to eat for many days. If not during this period, you used your own power to protect her.
She took her last breath, and it is very likely that she died here. With the help of angels, she woke up earlier than you." Gabriel slowly told the situation, and at the end, her eyes looked at the saint.
Slightly different.
If the fire of doomsday burns for a few more days, even the saints will not be able to survive it, and their final fate will be to be burned to ashes by the flames. The saints in the sea of fire do not know when the fire of doomsday will end, but they are willing to part ways
With the little strength he had left, he protected a very weak human girl. Naturally, the sinister saint in it was understood, but he still did it without hesitation. Although Gabriel did not like Isaac, he still
That act of righteousness is very admirable.
"Really..." After hearing this, the stone hanging in Isaac's heart finally fell to the ground, and he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. The moment he heard that the girl survived, he was more relieved than any good news in the world. "Now it's your turn to answer my question." After a moment of silence, Gabriel finally said, "The flames that burned down Mingyue City were not ordinary doomsday fires. As far as I know, there is only one person in the world who can
To release that level of doomsday judgment, what exactly happened there? You'd better tell everything you know."
Sensing the interrogation in Gabriel's words, Isaac could only show a wry smile. Not long ago, he had just received the oracle and was about to become a powerful Holy Angel and associate with those archangels. However, everything
The direction was beyond his expectation. Now he is no longer a glorious saint, but just a sinner who broke his fate.
"Just when I was about to return to the Holy City in the Cloud, the Demon King of Hell captured me and asked me to do something for him. At that time, I didn't understand what his words meant. But from that moment on
, I completely fell into his plan..."
Isaac didn't mean to hide anything, and told the complete story of what happened before. Even though he is now a sinner who broke his fate, in his heart, he is still the saint with justice in his heart.
After listening to Isaac's narration, even the well-informed archangel couldn't help but feel his heart freeze at this moment. In addition to sighing at the sinister nature of Lucifer, he actually used this method to plunge mankind into complete self-destruction.
, a bit of pity for Isaac inevitably arose in my heart.
If what Isaac said is true, all this is not the fault of the saint, he is just a victim of Lucifer. The real culprit that caused all this is the devil who despises all living beings and has evil intentions.
.On the contrary, the various actions of the saints in this process also made Gabriel secretly nod, hoping to maintain his kind nature and persistence in justice under the pressure and temptation of the devil.
It’s not an easy thing.
At this point, Gabriel's expression towards the saints also improved. Although due to his identity, he had always been stern in his speech, his indifference and questioning were also quietly resolved. For those righteous people, add
Bailie has always admired it.
"I already know the matter. This matter is not your fault. It is all Lucifer's fault. You don't have to blame yourself for this. In front of him, you have done everything you can do."<
/p>
Gabriel's words of relief only resulted in the saint shaking his head bitterly: "I can feel that Lucifer didn't do anything. He didn't use any of his own power. He just let me stop and watch with him to see what happened to human beings."
How to self-destruct. The cowardice that is placed in the soul and attached to the bones has prompted mankind to embark on the wrong path of no return. Perhaps as he said, only heroes can completely abandon that cowardice...
…”
Although some time has passed since that special journey, Isaac's heart still seemed to be trapped in Mingyue City, and he could not get out of it for a long time. Every time he thought about the situation at that time, the saint felt a twist in his heart.
Pain, those situations when human beings self-destruct, will reappear in his mind as soon as he closes his eyes.
The will of a hero is like a rising wave. When faced with an approaching crisis or an enemy that hurts his bones, the rising wave may be tens or hundreds of meters high, or even reach the sky, threatening to sweep away the hero.
The sky and the earth were swallowed up, but when the crisis passed and the wave completely subsided, what remained in the heart of the hero was only unspeakable sadness.
Faced with the devil's questioning, the saint can muster up the courage to answer loudly like a hero. But when the matter passes, the wave of the hero's will has completely subsided. Every time he thinks about the situation at that time, the saint is left only secretly sad.
, he asked himself more than once whether he had done something wrong.
Hearing the saint's bitter whisper, Gabriel suddenly became angry and wanted to slap the saint completely awake: "Listen to what you are saying now! Did you also use these words to answer Lucifer then? I
I can forgive you for becoming a hero, but I cannot tolerate you agreeing with his point of view. Do you, like him, believe that human life is meaningless and that only heroes are qualified to live in the world?"
"I don't know..." The saint seemed to be stunned by the slap and said tremblingly, "But I did see the self-destruction of mankind. I don't understand why things have developed to this point? If everything is fate
So, what is the meaning of the lives of those human beings who self-destruct?"
As if aware of the pain in the saint's heart, Gabriel held up Isaac's square face and answered his questions solemnly:
"You have seen those self-destructive human beings, haven't you? They use their actions to show their mistakes to you and everyone who can see them, making the living people cherish everything that is hard-won. This will
This is the meaning of their existence here, and this is the meaning given to them by fate. People will know what is right and what is wrong because of them. Because of them, you will stand up in times of crisis and resist the will of the devil.
, this is the greatest significance of their existence... It’s just that if you cross that line and become a hero, you are destined to be rejected by fate."
Isaac's eyes became moist as he listened to the archangel's explanation. When Gabriel showed his solemn expression, his beauty that soothed people's hearts was by no means inferior to that of any woman in the world, starting from that
In the angel, Isaac saw the shadow of his devout Andorra godmother in the past. If his godmother saw his current depravity, she would be very disappointed with him.
"I already know what happened. I will feed back all the information about you to the Stigma Bearer in the clouds and let him decide your punishment. Until then, you can just sit here and wait for your fate."<
/p>
Gabriel said lightly. Seeing that the saint was bound by golden chains and unable to move his body, she felt compassion. Before leaving, she untied the chains that bound the saint and asked at the same time: "
Is there anything else I can help you with?"
"I want to see Eileen. Isn't she awake? Can she come to see me? I want to make sure she is safe." After hearing what Gabriel said, Isaac stood up immediately and hurriedly made his only request.<
/p>
Gabriel just shook his head and looked at the saint with even more pity in his eyes: "She woke up earlier than you and specifically told the angel that she didn't want to see you again. She said you violated her rules.
Willing, killing people who should have survived."
"Really..." Isaac sat back on the ground and murmured.
The people he saved were not grateful to him. Instead, they only complained and blamed them, and did not even want to see him. But Isaac did not blame Irene for this. When he heard the news that Irene was safe, he was already treating him.
He is very satisfied. As long as he can stick to the justice in his heart, no matter what the result is, it is enough for him.
Gabriel took a deep look at him, then waved his wings and turned into a golden stream of light, flying to the end of the sky, preparing to feed back all the information obtained from the saints to the Stigmata who dominate the clouds.<
