God gave no instructions, yet with an aura of immense affability and majesty, he sat high on his throne in a phantom form, with rows of angels of heaven standing around him below, leaving the angels of wisdom alone.
“Father God.” Joyce knelt before the phantom of God, his robe trailing on the ground, and clenched his fist to his chest in a gesture of respect. “It is so good to see you awaken.”
Joyce did not report to God about the situation in Hell, his decisions, or anything else, because God is an all-knowing and all-powerful being. As long as God exists, this wise god does not need to use his brain; he only needs to obey the Father's arrangements.
“My child, I am very pleased to see that you have managed Heaven so well. You have done a great job.”
The phantom of God raised a hand, gesturing for Joyce to rise, and continued...
“But my child, the power of rules is irreversible, so I’m sorry, child, some of the decisions you’ve made will bring severe punishment to yourself and the other angels.”
“I am willing to accept the punishment, Father God.”
Joyce didn't argue. As the nominal head of Paradise, he would have to take the blame no matter who caused the trouble.
Joyce made the right choice.
God is the way of Heaven, and any rules He says cannot be changed are definitely nonsense. No one else has the right to resist Him.
However, some of the angels were unhappy. Coincidentally, it was the same kind-hearted blond boy from last time. He usually had a baby face and a pouty expression, but in front of God, he became incredibly weak, speaking in a low voice.
"My lord, aren't you being too harsh on Lord Joyce? This was clearly because of Lord Bradley..."
The blond boy became increasingly hesitant to speak, and even though God showed no sign of anger, his keen sixth sense saved him.
Since the one-click recall was based on the current location of the players, Yu Ling was still standing next to him. Seeing that he was limp, she quickly pulled him back and received a grateful look in return.
“Father God, I am willing to accept the punishment,” Joyce quickly added, “Please issue your divine decree.”
The phantom of God didn't mind the blond boy angel's impetuousness, but instead gave the angel Yu Ling a meaningful look. Then he focused his benevolent gaze on Joyce and said:
"I don't know when the punishment of the power of the rules will come; you need to be on guard yourself."
Now that I have returned to my rightful place, the demons of hell are about to awaken, and it is time for everyone to regain their memories.
As soon as he finished speaking, a blinding golden light flashed. Apart from angels like Yu Ling who were reborn afterward, the other angels had clearly regained their sealed memories, and their faces turned pale.
After doing good deeds anonymously, God continued to Joyce, saying, "My child, do not repeat the same mistakes you made before. Remember, besides Bradley, there are other companions waiting for us in hell. I will wish you a safe journey here."
After saying that, he disappeared.
It disappeared.
Alright.
Yu Ling was speechless.
So you wake up once, take a car ride, waste our travel time, then regain your memories, make my survival more difficult, and then that's it, you just leave?
Also, what exactly did that glance he gave him mean?
Yu Ling was confused, but she didn't say anything. The plan was disrupted, but Joyce's decision wouldn't change; they would continue, though this time Joyce didn't mobilize everyone. Instead, following the principle of voluntariness, he allowed some angels who had just regained their memories and hadn't yet accepted reality to remain in Heaven.
As for the other angels who are unwilling to come, he will not force them. Those who are supposed to go to the human world to carry out construction will do so, and those who are supposed to stay in heaven to guard their homes and be ready to provide support at any time. He only needs to take those who are willing to go with him and travel light, which will greatly increase their speed.
“I know you all have some complaints about me sealing my memories, but I had no choice,” Joyce said. “Now that Father God has awakened, we cannot let our guard down. Bradley is still waiting for us in Hell, and our comrades who were once captured by Hell are also waiting for us.”
"Now, those who are willing to come with me to save them, follow me, let's set off now."
Joyce made a call and then spread her wings and flew away. Most of the other angels hadn't figured out what was going on and didn't have time to think about the intricacies of the situation before they all flew away as well.
Yu Ling shook off the blond boy who was pulling her and flew away with him.
Are you kidding? Even God has woken up. Do you think the big guy still inside Charlie's body can escape? Just follow the plot and find an opportunity to help the big guy out.
The second journey was faster than the first. This time, Joyce didn't bother to hide the angels' tracks. After regaining their memories and knowing the true power of Hell, the angels didn't need him to urge them; they all flew faster than anyone else.
In summary, apart from Yu Ling, all the other angels had participated in the last war between Heaven and Hell. There was no other newborn angel who blindly followed Joyce.
This allowed Yu Ling to catch up with the group without revealing herself. As the only new angel among all the big shots, she naturally attracted Joyce's attention and was directly carried along.
Joyce was also puzzled. Yu Ling wasn't one of those old battle-damaged angels who blindly hated Hell. Why was she coming to Hell to settle scores?
Yu Ling: "I'm worried about Lord Bradley, but don't worry, I won't hold you back."
Angel Yu Ling's talent is healing magic. With the skill amplification she received from the main god, she can definitely be a support character. Especially with the Life Embrace, it's not impossible for her to exploit a bug to save others and then draw life force back from them to save herself.
Joyce had no reason to refuse.
If I had known this silly angel was so considerate, I would have kept her by my side from the beginning. Giving her to Bradley, that clueless battle maniac, would have been a complete waste.
"Just stay by my side and don't worry. Father God has awakened, and we will definitely be fine."
Joyce spoke with absolute certainty.
As angels created by God, there has never been a case in history where an angel fell while God was awake, except when God occasionally fell asleep for various reasons.
"Thank you very much, Lord Joyce."
Yu Ling said this, but she was not at ease in her heart. "Can you really believe that the God you talk about has never actually slept with me?"
Besides, even if God is really that good and wants to protect the angels he created, this fake God doesn't feel safe at all!
Despite her depressed mood, the angel Yu Ling still looked as innocent and naive as ever. Her silver hair shone brightly in Joyce's holy light, and her beauty alone lifted the spirits of the entire team.
When they arrived at their destination, Yu Ling was once again shocked by another guy who didn't play by the rules.
When Joyce arrived, Bradley said that he had lost Mitchell.
