Chapter 71
Everything returned to calm. Everything in the past seemed to be just a fleeting glimpse, but it was engraved in Kassel's heart like a knife.
The wings behind him fluttered, and Cassel said without turning his head, "Barbatos, you are here."
Barbatos stood in the distance, staring blankly at the six wings behind Cassel, obviously feeling incredible: "Your wings..."
"I am the little angel chosen by you. It's not strange that I became like this, right?" Cassel turned around and looked at him. Then, he looked at the group of demons behind him and chuckled again. "Come and catch me!"
Barbatos' eyes were complicated: "We don't want to arrest you, we just want to take you back..."
This is the devil's hell. There are no stars, no moon, and the main colors are black and red. It is either the boiling magma or the dark bottomless abyss. With each layer of hell, the burning sensation becomes more intense, and the evil thoughts become stronger.
The devil takes the angel back
Cassel found it funny.
"Take me back," Cassel asked, "Like before, lock me up in the bottom of hell and watch me slowly degenerate and become a fallen angel, one of your kind."
The demons were in an uproar.
Barbatos' expression also changed: "You have recovered your memory"
"I became a six-winged high-level angel and broke through the seal you demons put on me. Isn't it strange?" Cassel asked him back.
Not surprising at all. He just remembered too many interesting things. Fallen into the bottom of hell, the newly born angel was unwilling to surrender. He just stared fiercely at the high sky, asking God why he didn't come to save him.
No one answered him. Only the Demon Lord revealed his true face, the former Seraph, Lucifer.
The little angel cursed at him, saying that he was not worthy of being an angel and was not worthy of God's favor, but Lucifer told him calmly that God had abandoned him.
Same as me.
The God of Creation told God that darkness and light must be equal, otherwise the world will be destroyed. But God is only the existence that created light. He gave birth to countless angels, which gradually conquered the demons. The darkness became less and less, and the light became more and more. In order to maintain the so-called balance, God began to allow angels to become demons.
The first one to be abandoned was his most beloved Seraphim - Lucifer.
Lucifer was trapped in the lower level of hell, with his wings stuck in the magma. He suffered a lot. He didn't believe that he would be abandoned by God, so he stayed in the demon hell without eating or drinking for seven days and seven nights, just staring at the sky. Eventually, he fell into the first generation of demon and became the lord of demons.
And Cassell is the second one.
He was imprisoned in the devil's hell since he was born, and had the same experience as Lucifer. However, Cassel was not as strong as Lucifer at that time, and he kept resisting. Not long after he was born, he was nailed to the bottom of hell. The wings behind him were bloody, but Cassel was still struggling. He refused to accept any charity from the devil and would rather die than merge into the darkness.
Until Lucifer showed up.
It only took three days and three nights for him to be sealed. The tentacles sealed his angelic aura, forcing his power to be locked in his blood, unable to be used forever. The snow-white wings degenerated and became bare, and he completely turned into a demon, a demon with a completely different personality from his original one - a disguised demon.
"Barbatos," Cassel raised the corner of his lips and looked at him sarcastically, "It's really hard for you to take care of a tool like me so wholeheartedly."
Barbatos's eyes showed a complicated expression: "Caselle, come back, I have prepared tentacles for you. As long as you come back, they will not hurt you."
"Yeah."
Cassel sighed softly.
He plucked out his feather and flew away. The wind from hell blew and rolled up the feather, suddenly tearing a hole in the air.
"Let's get to know each other again," Cassel flapped his wings and flew to the crack. In the surprised eyes of the demons, he said, "I am the free space angel, Cassel."
"No one can restrain me, and I have never been your tool. I am just myself, an angel in space who is always free."
The space angel who was blessed by many angels including the sea angel at the beginning.
"Barbatos," Cassel raised his chin and said, "Goodbye."
Demons and angels are all looking for Cassel, but Cassel has recovered his memory and magic power, and has become an independent space angel. He can use the transformation of space to quickly disappear on the spot, and he can also break through the illusion and hide at any time.
The former Seraphim just watched this farce coldly. He did not take action, but he did not stop any demon from taking action until the mind-controlling demon died. In the end, God still took action.
The sun was shining, the ground was covered with green grass, dotted with colorful flowers, hiding shyly. Not far away, on a lush tree, Cassel was lying on the trunk, holding the flute he had found in his hands, thinking about how to play it.
The white hem fell down, the clothes were loose, revealing a large area of snow-white skin. The arms and legs were also exposed, and there were golden bracelets on the wrists. The wings folded up and enveloped its owner.
A familiar scent passed by behind me.
Cassel was not surprised. This was something he should have expected. Now he is neither an angel nor a devil, but he has broken the so-called balance. God will definitely find him.
I just didn't expect it to come so slowly.
He thought they would come to arrest him in two days, but he didn't expect that a month had already passed.
Cassel turned around, flew out of the tree, stood in front of God, and said with a smile: "God, long time no see."
God is still as high above as before, looking like a kind father, with white hair and beard, wearing a white bathrobe-like robe, with clouds under his feet and a golden halo behind him.
Many angels gathered here. There are also several familiar faces of Kassel, battle angels, sea angels, cherubim...
God looked at him with a sigh and said, "My dear child, you have suffered."
"Would you care?" Cassel suddenly smiled, as if he had heard a joke. He said, as viciously as a bad kid who had done something wrong, "You wish I would suffer more!"
The sea angel frowned and scolded: "Casel! Who taught you to talk to God like this?"
"What qualifications do you have to care about the angel I abandoned? It wasn't you. You are naturally justified," Cassel sneered. He spread his wings and tilted his head to look at them. "Are you all here to catch me?"
The battle angel pursed his lips: "Cassell, come back. God is here to take you home."
"Who would believe such a bad lie?" Cassel didn't believe them. "In your eyes, I am just a person who destroys the world, and I am particularly evil. You said you would take me back, but you just want to throw me into hell. Back then, the seraph Lucifer seemed to have persisted for seven days and seven nights, without eating or drinking, and his wings were burned beyond recognition, before he chose to become a fallen angel. Ah, what about me? Do I have to endure seven days and seven nights as well?"
"Casel, you are so rude." Behind him, Barbatos and the demons also appeared. "The Demon Lord chose to fall voluntarily in order to save the world from destruction. You shouldn't slander him like this!"
"Voluntary," Cassel sneered, "ridiculous. Why do you have to make things sound so beautiful? It's just for your own selfish desires. My dear God, how do you know that you are not afraid that the Seraph will be too good and replace you, so you do this?"
The sea angel scolded, "Cassell! Shut up!"
"And Barbatos," Cassel didn't care. He tilted his head to look at him and whispered softly, "You are just afraid that all the demons will die, so you came up with this method with God that darkness and light must be equal, and cooperate to deal with those little angels, right?"
"In this world, day and night cannot even be equally divided, so why do you demand that light and darkness be equal? They never are."
Barbatos was a little sad: "Caselle, you were not like this before. Who taught you bad things? Come back, you are just a disguised demon from hell..."
"I'm not going back." Cassel smiled suddenly. He looked at the angels on that side and the demons on this side, and blinked slowly. "Whether it's the demon hell or the angel realm."
“I won’t go back.”
"I have never been a tool for you to balance black and white, nor am I an object that can be thrown away at will."
"Caselle is always free."
As he spoke, he suddenly flapped his wings, leaped out from the ground, and flew straight up into the sky.
The angels and demons were all startled and chased after him. It was not until they saw the sudden reversal of time and space and the sharp blade transformed from the plucked feathers falling rapidly from the sky that they realized something.
"Oh no! He's going to cut off his wings!"
"Is he crazy? He's going to lose his wings and his life too. What on earth is he going to do?!"
"Cassell! Don't do this! I won't force you to come back, don't do this!"
…
Cassell ignored everyone. He just did the same as Nie Wuhen did at that time, he released all his magic power and let himself fall. The weapon above his head was sharp and chopped down quickly.
The magic power around him was all given by God, so Cassel returned these things. He didn't need them, and there was nothing for him to be nostalgic about in this world.
But he forgot one thing.
God just raised his hand, and the knife just stayed still in the air, unable to fall to the ground.
Someone caught him when he was falling. Cassel tried to struggle, but the person hugged him tightly. He was filled with a familiar breath and his eyes widened in disbelief.
"Caselle," Nie Wuhen put his forehead close to his, his voice trembling, but with the joy of regaining what he had lost, "I see you again..."
Cassel blinked, his eyes instantly turned red. He stammered, not daring to touch Nie Wuhen: "Am I dreaming again?"
"No, no." Nie Wuhen grabbed his hand, placed it on his lips and kissed it, then adjusted his mood and said, "Lie down behind me."
Demons and angels surrounded them.
The sea angel warned: "Who are you?"
"People from another world," Barbatos sneered, "Catch them!"
Cassel plucked a handful of feathers and threw them into the air. He then lay on Nie Wuhen's back, hugged his neck, and bared his teeth at them:
"Let's see who dares."
