Chapter 346 - Cameo?
Chapter 346 Cameo?
The golden holy light that soared into the sky above Cloud City slowly weakened until it disappeared. In the hall, Isabel gradually opened her eyes. Orfina knelt on one knee in front of Isabel, put her hand to her chest, and bowed excitedly. “Your Excellency Isabel, you’re finally awake…”
“Thank you for your hard work, Orfina!” Isabel’s expression was indifferent, as though she had not adapted to her body yet. “When I was in the egg, I could feel your power infusion.”
“It’s mainly because we were worried that there wasn’t enough time…” Orfina said. “A powerful enemy has invaded, and we urgently need Your Excellency Isabel’s power.”
Isabel nodded and looked at her smooth body. With a wave of her hand, the strange golden feathers around the eggshell flew over and surrounded her body. Finally, they turned into a magnificent and holy angelic armor in a flash of light. At the same time, an angelic sword appeared in Isabel’s left hand, and the sword’s guard had incomparably beautiful wings. A golden shield appeared in her right hand, and the shield had cross and thorn patterns engraved on it. Whether it was the armor, the sword, or the shield, they all glowed with powerful radiance like divine artifacts!
This was because these pieces of equipment were made from the feathers of the Dragon of Light, Elrath!
In the human world, when the original Isabel died and the golden noble soul appeared, the reason why Heaven had sent numerous angels to bring Isabel’s soul into Heaven at all costs was that her identity was extraordinary. She was not only the queen of Erathia but someone blessed by a Dragon God, the Chosen of the Dragon of Light, Elrath!
Unlike Arantir, who called himself the ‘Chosen of Asha’, Isabel was a true Chosen. Moreover, she lived up to her identity as a Chosen. After experiencing the many torments that Kha-Beleth had inflicted on her, she had not become trapped in hatred. Instead, through her great motherly love, her soul sublimated.
After the angels brought this sublimated noble soul back to Heaven, they baptized it with the power of holy light and then injected it into the angel egg.
As one of the Dragon Gods that the people of this world believed in, the Dragon of Light, Elrath, was the most gorgeous Elemental Dragon. His appearance was different from that of ordinary dragons, and he was noble and dignified. His elegant scales were pure gold and exuded gentle light from the inside and outside. His wings were not made of membranes but of feathers, just like angels, but they were slightly longer and bigger. His tail was like a phoenix tail, with three long strands floating behind him.
As Dragon Gods, the Six Elemental Dragons had not appeared in the eyes of the people of the world for a long time. They no longer participated in the development of the civilizations of the various races, but they still left some legacies behind for their Chosens. The strange golden feathers surrounding the angel egg that Isabel was born from were actually feathers from the body of the Dragon of Light, Elrath. These feathers contained unparalleled and powerful holy power, and they facilitated Isabel’s birth as the energy supply of the angel egg.
However, despite the energy provided by Elrath’s feathers, Isabel’s incubation time was not enough. But at this time, Roy entered straight into Heaven to complete the promotion ritual…
Orfina, Cecily, and the other two throne angels were currently the four leaders of Heaven. When Roy came knocking on their door, they thought that they would be able to suppress Roy. After all, there were so many angels besieging a demon, and their chances of victory were extremely high. But when Roy suddenly summoned Fat Tiger and Rafaro, Orfina realized that something was wrong. Recently, Heaven had collected a lot of information about Demon Osiris. The angels’ understanding of Roy was that he was a very strange demon!
He did not have the powerful fire-element power of common demons. Instead, he used frost and lightning. Not only was he powerful, but his various abilities were also surprising and very difficult to deal with.
Therefore, when Orfina saw the body of the Sky Dragon of Osiris cover the sky, she immediately felt uneasy. After discussing with Cecily and the others, she left the battlefield and returned to Cloud City to infuse her power into the angel egg to accelerate Isabel’s incubation.
Their original intention was that the other three were in charge of stalling Roy and contending with him as much as possible. The final decision was to wait until after Isabel was born to use her mighty strength to kill Roy utterly.
However, the plan could not keep up with the changes. They had underestimated the changes brought about by the Sky Dragon of Osiris. Claudio and the other two did not buy much time for Orfina and failed one after another.
Claudio had self-destructed and died; Ista had been bitten in two by Rafaro; Cecily had been struck by Rafaro’s tail, and it was unknown whether she was dead or alive. After losing the three thrones, the remaining low-level angels were unable to cause much trouble for Roy, so he was now directly hitting the entrance of Cloud City. In this battle, Heaven was beaten miserably. This was mainly due to the fact that the angels had participated in too many wars in the Ashan world over the past thousand years, resulting in too much loss of high-end combat strength. On the contrary, the demons were able to preserve many demon lords because the Seventh Dragon, Sar-Elam, had imprisoned them.
As the time of Sar-Shazzar’s prophecy approached, the angels of Heaven were worried that they would not have any means to keep the demon lords in check after they escaped. That was why they sought this opportunity to use Isabel’s soul to add a true seraph to Heaven as their leader.
As a new-born seraph, Isabel’s current strength was not as powerful as the clones of Archangels Raphael or Gabriel, but she was close to the demon king level. It would be easy to deal with demon lords. As long as Isabel could kill Roy, Orfina might be able to retrieve some of the angel souls from Roy and resurrect them to restore Heaven’s combat strength.
In short, Heaven was now betting on Isabel…
When transmitting power to the angel egg, Orfina transmitted the situation facing Heaven along with her memories, so there was no need for her to explain. Isabel already knew, so after being fully armed, she slowly floated up, and the golden wings behind her flapped as she flew out of the hall.
Orfina forced herself to fly up and followed behind Isabel. When the two of them flew out of the hall, the remaining angels guarding it gathered and followed closely behind them.
These low-level angels were suppressing the excitement in their hearts. They were proud as they looked at the light wings behind Isabel with worship in their eyes. They knew that these were holy wings that could only be possessed after completely turning into holy light. After so many years, a true seraph finally appeared in Heaven again!
If you were not an angel, you would not understand the meaning behind this. Although the people of Ashan said that angels were believers of the Dragon of Light, Elrath, only angels understood that they only believed in holy light. Elrath was the Dragon of Light, one of the Elemental Dragon Gods in this world and an incarnation of holy light. But no matter what, he was still a dragon and not the same species as angels. Just like how demons accepted the protection of the Dragon of Chaos, Urgash, angels received the protection of the First Dragon, Asha, and thus stayed in this world. But unlike the demons who worshipped power and listened to whoever had the biggest fist, the angels were still resistant to leaders of different species.
But now, a new seraph had appeared, and the proud angels finally had someone to entrust their hopes to…
Following Isabel’s lead, the angels rushed out of the barrier of Cloud City with imposing momentum. Then they saw… Roy and Rafaro retreating
It was impossible not to retreat. Roy was here to complete the promotion ritual, not to overturn all of Heaven. After hearing from Rafaro that the soaring holy light was the phenomenon of the birth of a seraph, he felt that it was time to retreat.
Roy and Rafaro flew toward the Gate of Heaven. They had already sped away nearly a hundred kilometers from Cloud City. Just as they were about to arrive, their vision suddenly blurred, and a figure appeared in the air in front of them.
Isabel’s speed was simply unimaginable. From a distance of nearly a hundred kilometers away, she arrived in the blink of an eye.
When Roy saw Isabel’s appearance, he felt uneasy. It was not only because Isabel looked familiar but also because of the fluttering light wings behind her.
Unlike the light wings that burned like flames that Gabriel’s and Raphael’s clones had, the light wings behind Isabel reminded Roy of the wings of Archangels Tyrael and Imperius from Diablo. They were exactly the same!
Is it a coincidence, or… did the Diablo world come to make a cameo?!
