Chapter 54: The Battle of Faith 10



As Raphael eagerly anticipated, the angel behind the door made a brilliant appearance. His tall and upright body was wrapped in deep majesty, and his cold blue eyes could chill people to the bone with just one glance.

Raphael was stunned, his tone surprised, "... Ceci, why are you here with Sariel again?"

Cesivido didn't answer. He stood coldly at the door, not wanting to make way for him. He glanced at the box in Raphael's hand and asked, "Is this for Sariel?"

Raphael was in a daze. "Well, Sariel said he liked sweet-scented osmanthus cake, so I went to the human world to find some for him. He..."

"He doesn't like it now." Cesivido told him firmly, his brows cold. "Also, Raphael, have you forgotten even the most basic etiquette?"

Mu Mu was waiting anxiously for someone to come back, but half a day had passed and there was still no sign of Cesivido leading Raphael over, so he had no choice but to run to see.

Before anyone showed up, Raphael's voice was heard.

"Sariel is not your appendage. He is an archangel of equal status with you, a fellow Seraph. Why are you keeping him captive all day?!"

"He didn't show any resistance. If he showed any reluctance, I would have stopped bothering him immediately, but he didn't. Sariel just likes being with me."

"Have some shame, it's because Sariel is afraid of you, so he doesn't dare to say it out loud."

"I also think Sariel hates you. He has never taken the initiative to look for you."

At this time, the two of them were arguing fiercely, and most of the time Raphael was the only one who was speaking. From time to time, Cesivido would say something, and this sentence was often very lethal, making Raphael so angry that he couldn't speak.

Mu Mu hurriedly stood between them, fearing that Cesivido would say a few more words and Raphael would faint from anger.

"Brother Raphael, don't listen to his nonsense." Mu Mu pulled Cesivido's wrist and pulled him aside. He smiled at Raphael and said, "I haven't finished the osmanthus cake you brought me last time."

Raphael pulled Mu Mu up and looked him over, only feeling relieved when he was sure he was unharmed. He glanced at Cesivido defiantly and put a hand on Mu Mu's shoulder. "If you can't finish it, just throw it away. I'll give you as much as you want."

Cesivido stared at Raphael's hand and followed them.

The first thing Raphael saw when he entered the room was the little kid sitting obediently on a stool eating pastries. He was obviously stunned, and quickly took a few steps forward to lift Shi Lin's collar, and his nose twitched.

Then, with a look of horror, he looked up at Mu Mu and Cesiweiduo who came in later, and said in a trembling voice, "Why does this child have the aura of both of you?"

Raphael couldn't believe that they had a child in just a day or two.

Mu Miao glanced at Shi Lin suspiciously and immediately distanced himself from the matter, "I don't know him either. Cesiweido picked him up."

Cesivido frowned upon hearing this. "I found it today in the Second Heaven. The gods seem to be paying special attention to it."

Raphael looked at the two people who were equally bewildered, feeling extremely exhausted. "How can I not pay attention? The tone of his voice is equivalent to telling everyone that he is your child!"

Raphael was so angry that he was about to die. If he hadn't known Cesivido for so many years and was well aware of his self-controlled and steady character, he would definitely suspect that he had secretly attacked Sariel.

Mu Miao was stunned. He turned his head to look at Shi Lin and said lightly, "How is it possible..."

He was Shi Lin, whom I had just met this morning. How could he have his aura?

[001! 001!] Mu Mu called for help from a reliable helper, his tone terrified, [Wuwuwuwuwuwu, how did I suddenly become a father?]

[Don't panic, little idiot.] 001's voice was as reliable as ever. [I checked his bloodline, and it's not yours. This is weird. He's clearly not related to you in the slightest, so why does he smell like you?]

Mu Mu was in a state of confusion, countless pieces of information flashing through his mind. His clear eyes gradually became shrouded in a haze, and his clear voice became lowered. [001, can you find out his race?]

[I checked.] 001 said in surprise, [I can't find his race classification... Is he a first-generation species?]

001's information database collected the species of creatures in various worlds, but there was one exception, that is, the creatures in the first batch of worlds were not within his scope of understanding.

001 didn't exist at that time.

Mu Miao looked at Shi Lin with a gloomy gaze. His appearance was undoubtedly that of a child, except for the calculation and cunning that occasionally flashed in his eyes.

He clenched his hands tightly, his nails digging into the flesh of his palms. After a moment of silence, Mu Mu pulled the corners of his lips, revealing an emotionless smile. He turned his head to look at Cesivido, "Is there a place in Purgatory now? Send him in."

As soon as the words fell, everyone present was so surprised that they couldn't close their mouths.

[Oh my god, it seems my wife really hates my brother.]

[This dungeon is like hell. It's over. I'm dead.]

[The day isn't even over yet, and there's only one angel left? It's all over.]

[Du Miao is still diligently practicing military posture...]

Shi Lin was horrified and looked up, meeting Mu Mu's cold eyes. The hatred in Mu Mu's eyes was clearly visible.

Is he so cruel? Shi Lin remembered that he had only threatened him at best, and had done nothing else. It was a waste that he was so handsome, but he turned out to be a beauty snake!

Shi Lin felt hopeless.

Mu Mu raised her delicate and beautiful face and looked at Cesivido, acting like a spoiled child, "Is it not possible? Can't you just listen to me on this?"

It seemed as if it would be cruel for Cesivido to reject him, but of course, no one was willing to reject him.

Cesivido tapped his fingers lightly, and a golden rope tied up Shi Lin. Shi Lin remained silent the whole time, as if what these people were discussing had nothing to do with him, or he had already accepted his fate and didn't want to struggle anymore.

Only angels who have committed serious sins or vampires who have been captured will be thrown into Purgatory. It is against the rules to send Shi Lin here.

But Cesivido, who always knew the law and abided by it, agreed to Mumu's request without hesitation.

He rubbed Mu Mu's head and said, "Don't be angry, I will take care of him."

Mu Miao stared at Shi Lin lying on the ground with resentment, "We must send a few more people to watch him, or even just kill him."

"I know." Cesiweido took Mumu into his arms and stroked his tense back. "It's okay, Sariel. Relax. I will take care of everything. Don't worry."

Mu Mu lowered his head and nodded. He calmed his pounding heart, and his excited mood gradually subsided under Cesivido's comfort.

Sesivido took Shi Lin to Purgatory. Mu Mu lay listlessly on the table, looking at the half-empty osmanthus cake in the box. His eyes turned red with anger. "I even gave him osmanthus cake. I'm so angry!"

Raphael sat down next to him and sighed, "I was scared to death too. I thought you guys had secretly had a child without telling me."

Mu Miao looked disgusted, "Don't drag me into this with him."

He picked up another piece of osmanthus cake, and without caring that his stomach was still full, he turned his grief and anger into appetite and ate it in big mouthfuls.

001: [This is the first time I’ve seen you hate someone so much.]

Mu Mu's cheeks puffed up, and he slowed down his eating. His voice was low, "001, do you know about the Two-Phase Mirror?"

001 was stunned for a moment. [The Two-Phase Mirror Clan? I've heard of them a little bit, but didn't they become extinct a long time ago? I heard it was because...]

He suddenly stopped, his heart sinking. 001 remembered that the reason for the extinction of the Two-Phase Clan was - God-killing.

Mu Mu's eyes were filled with mist. He kept stuffing sweet osmanthus cake into his mouth, but the sweetness could not change the pain in his heart. [Well, they killed my second brother.]

001Silent silence.

Mu Mu's eyes were moist, but tears kept welling up in them, and she stubbornly refused to let them fall.

[So, the injuries on your body...]

"They want to eat us." Mu Mu's memories had been largely erased by his second brother, but he still remembered the reason those people had captured them. "They wanted immortality, they wanted to change their bloodline, and our flesh and blood became their coveted food."

At that time, Jingxu maintained contact with various worlds and had not yet wandered outside the world like it does now.

Mu Miao remembered that it was a clear morning. He and his second brother Mu Zi were the only ones at home. The first generations from various worlds came to Jingxu at the same time.

A huge crowd rushed forward, grabbed Mu Mu, cut off the flesh on his heart with a sharp dagger, and ate it greedily.

Then Mu Zi came to save him...

His memories afterwards were already blurry. He only knew that Mu Zi was dead and had completely disappeared into the sky.

Even though tens of thousands of years had passed, Mu Mu would still tremble uncontrollably all over with pain whenever he remembered that day, as if the knife was cutting his flesh again.

001 noticed that his expression was not right and stopped him immediately, "Okay, forget it."

Mu Miao didn't dare to think further. Most of his memory was blurred. That was because Mu Zi erased this bloody memory before his death. He didn't want Mu Miao to suffer endlessly with this heavy memory.

And Mu Zi’s death told everyone one thing.

God can be killed.

Mu Mu's hands, holding the osmanthus cake, trembled constantly. His chest felt like it was being crushed by a huge rock, making it difficult to breathe. He breathed heavily like someone short of oxygen, his eyelashes fluttering like a fragile butterfly.

"Sariel." Raphael saw that something was wrong with him and immediately stood up and held his shoulders, looking into his eyes worriedly. "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Mu Miao shook her head, her voice trembling slightly, "It's okay, let me calm down for a while, I'll be fine soon."

Mu Mu knew that this was the aftermath of the God-killing War. He had experienced it many times and had gained experience.

He sat quietly, dragging himself out of the swamp of memories bit by bit.

Raphael stayed beside him silently, watching Mu Mu staring into the void with an expressionless face and empty eyes. The whole angel was shrouded in boundless loneliness.

It's so fragile that it makes people feel sad.

Time passed quietly in the deathly silence. Misal in the closet leaned his head against the wall and stared at Mu Mu's back through the narrow gap.

Raphael had been observing Mu Mu's mood changes. When he noticed that he was getting better, he spoke: "I came to you today to invite you to participate in the Moon Festival the day after tomorrow. Do you want to go and have fun?"

"Moon Festival?" Mu Mu had no memory related to this word, and he didn't dare to ask Raphael what festival it was. His eyes, still shining with water, looked at Raphael eagerly.

"Oh, I almost forgot you didn't go." Raphael smiled and explained, "The Moon Festival is a celebration held in the Seventh Heaven. On this day, the entire Heaven doesn't have to work, and many angels will go out to play, so it's very lively."

"But it's rare for Seraphim to go." Facing Mumu's puzzled eyes, Raphael sighed, "Because the Seraphim are open all year round, this festival is not for us to celebrate. But I happen to be free the day after tomorrow, how about taking you to the Moon Festival?"

Except for Mumu, the other Seraphim are indeed always busy.

Mu Miao hesitated, "I don't seem to have a job..."

"God didn't make any plans for you," Raphael said, relaying God's words. "He said, just grow up well."

Mu Mu was quite interested in the Moon Festival and readily agreed to the appointment for the day after tomorrow.

Raphael jumped up with joy, pacing back and forth in the room excitedly. "Then let's go to the Luna Flower Field together. It's just the time when the Luna flowers are in bloom. We can also watch the song and dance festival... You have to dress nicely and show all the angels that our Sariel is the most beautiful angel in all of Heaven!"

He excitedly opened Mu Mu's wardrobe and said, "I'll find you some nice clothes..."

Mu Miao stood up in panic, "Wait!"

But it was too late. The cabinet door was wide open, and Misal was exposed. He was still holding Mu Mu's clothes in his hands, with his face buried in them, and no one knew what he was doing.

The dark cabinet suddenly lit up, and Misal looked up and exchanged glances with Raphael, who had lost control of his expression.

Mu Miao: ...

This is a suffocating scene.
