Chasing You (Arcs 1-7)

Bearer of Thy Oath (XX)

Uriel had Bao Bao buy some necessities and some pills for recovering stamina. Uriel then gave it to Cain, "Live."

His voice had an unimaginable warmth to it that Cain had never heard before from these creatures. It shook his heart hearing it. Pausing after a couple of seconds, he nodded. His eyes were filled with gratitude and joy. Receiving it, he opened the bottle of pill and gave one to Abel before he ate one himself. It was very bitter as it melted inside of his mouth, but he felt his body slowly become invigorated. Abel opened his eyes not too soon after, he looked around slightly out of sort.

Cain laughed and hugged Abel, "We're finally free, Abel."

Abel hugged him back, "Really?"

His voice was filled with astonishment. Cain pulled back and kissed his nose and lips, "Yes, my love."

He showed a genuine smile and faced towards the cherubim, "It was all thanks to Uriel."

Abel turned and kneeled on the ground. He pressed his head against the ground, "I can't express how thankful we are that you've done this for us... We can never repay you-"

Uriel cut him off, "There's no need to thank me. I am only correcting the mistakes that we've made in our past. Your woe was a result of our transgression. You owe me nothing, Son of Eve."

He took out a scroll and gave it to Cain, "This is a teleportation scroll. Think of a place that you want to go. Somewhere where no one could find you. Where you can live in peace. Be careful. This is my last gift to you, Son of Adam."

Cain stood up and took the scroll. His hands were tightly clenched around the scroll, "Thank you."

Uriel nodded his head. He watched a light envelope the two and their figures disappeared. Where they had gone to, Uriel couldn't care and didn't inquire about. He had gotten what he had aimed for.

Immediately after their departure, Uriel fell down onto his knees and coughed. He covered his mouth but his blood could be seen seeping through his fingers. He continued to coughed heavily and more blood spewed from the cracks of his fingers. It traveled down his fingers, neck, and stained his white and gold robes. He really didn't have much time or energy left anymore. From his calculations, he was cutting it very close.

With this choice of action, he was already halfway done with preventing his brethren from acting and becoming undone. There was only latter half of it that had yet to be accomplished.

Bao Bao was conflicted watching Uriel kill himself like this, he had protested against this method but Uriel wouldn't listen to him. He would always say, 'If they perish here, could you guarantee that they won't cease to exist and I will see them again?'

There was no guarantee that if they were eliminated by something other than natural death, that they would live and be able to reincarnate. It was already unknown what happened after Uriel's death and why they could travel through the worlds....  There were too many questions that had no answers to them, Uriel didn't want one missed step and cause them to disappear. Even if he was being selfish, he wouldn't regret his actions. Bao Bao had no words to give him assurance and could only watch as Uriel climbed his way down to his grave.

Outside, pandemonium had broken out. The Seals of Yahweh were all destroyed instantaneously, one after the other and a rift cracked through the sky. Black smog came from the rift and demons poured out from it. They wreaked havoc every where they touched. from Heaven, the angels were deployed to stop the demons. Their golden weapons glimmered and glowed as they waved them in the air.

The beautiful melody of doom and destruction were sounded by the piercing shrieks and wails. The whole world seemed to have been doused in oil and set on fire.

In the school grounds...

Bael, the leader of the infernal powers, commander of sixty six legions kneeled in front of a short bluish lavender haired youth, "My King, it is now our time to act."

The youth frowned, he and Adriel had been looking for Uriel when they were approached by Bael. Sitri clenched his teeth in discontent, "Do as you want. I'm busy looking for someone."

Bael shook his head and refused to move, "Your father has instructed that you would be the one to lead this crusade against the Heavenly realm. The moment of ascension has arrived. It is time for you to shed your disguise, my King."

Sitri's frown deepened even more. His eyes flickered, the deep purple color was overcome with a pitch black color, his purple hair lengthened and fell down to his back, several horns appeared on his head, and his clothes dispersed into black feathers. His arms and body was covered in a black murky darkness, around his neck and shoulder were a heap of feathers, and his chest and abdomen were bare showcasing his pale and smooth skin.

(A/N: Above is a picture of his true form.)

Bael smiled in delight at seeing this form, "My King, Kasimir¹."

(A/N: Sitri will be referred to as Kasimir from now on.)

Kasimir had been a creation from Lucifer, just as Jesus was for God. Created many millennia ago, he had roamed the Earth as Jesus did. His followers were as many as those who believed in Jesus, they were devout followers and would happily lay down and die for him. He was the true antichrist.

Six centuries ago, Kasimir had given himself the identity as 'Sitri' and had gone into 'hiding'. He had become bored of this mundane world and the battles of angels and demon. It was always the same development over and over again. He sought out something more in life and left his position. His father, Lucifer didn't have much to say about his decision.

As Lucifer knew that one day a revelation would come and they would rise out of Hell and walk upon the land of the mortals once again, it was just a matter of waiting. He could let Kasimir play around until then.Occasionally, Lucifer would call upon him back to the Hell but other than that he was given freedom.

Adriel scrunched up his nose, Kasimir's true form was a head taller than he was. He felt quite annoyed that his height was inferior to Kasimir's and Uriel's. Just as he was about to speak, he felt Uriel's presence once again. After they had woken up, he had tried to find him but he couldn't find the other's location no matter what he tried. He knew that Uriel wasn't dead because their contract and mark still stands.

Now the mark in the palm of his hand glowed. He activated it's detecting abilities once more. Kasimir had also seen that glow and narrowed his eyes.
