Chapter 227 Secret of Heaven
While Roy was still guessing, the words Uriel heard in her memory came, finally unveiling the mystery of this Archangel.
“What?! Gabriel, are you crazy?!”
This Archangel’s sudden fierce tone shocked Uriel greatly. It seemed like she originally planned to jump out and get close to her idol, but this Archangel’s tone immediately dispelled this idea, and she instead drew back and hid.
Facing this question, Archangel Gabriel did not have much reaction and only said calmly, “Michael, I have already decided!”
Hearing this name, Roy finally realized that the Archangel standing opposite Gabriel was Michael!
Roy finally understood why Michael’s battle robe had sword patterns. Legend had it that Michael was the most dazzling and famous Archangel in Heaven. He was brave and warlike, and he was absolutely opposed to evil and had a ruthless attitude when annihilating evil. It could be said that he was a super hardliner, the incarnation of ‘absolute justice’, so his battle robe used the sword patterns.
This description reminded Roy of Sakazuki…
Before Roy could understand, Michael spoke again. “No! I absolutely won’t agree! Have you thought about it? If you do this, your body may be contaminated!”
“But it’s still better than you blowing the horn without distinguishing between right and wrong!” Gabriel replied. “I’m only doing this to give humanity a chance!” “What a joke!” Michael said. “Blowing the Horn of Judgment Day was originally the duty the Creator had given us. At that time, everyone will face judgment! This was what the Creator said to us personally. Now that the Creator isn’t around, are you planning to deny this order?!”
“No, I don’t deny this order. I still remember the words left behind by the Creator!” Gabriel defended. “But have you thought about it? Responsibility is responsibility, but whether or not we really want to blow the Horn of Judgment Day is up to us to determine. Every decision we make concerns whether the species of the Infinite Worlds can survive and reproduce! Can such a major decision be made based on surface appearance alone?”
“Surface appearance?” Michael’s tone was full of mockery. “Then tell me, why does every world where humans are born accelerate the increase in entropy in the entire Void? You have to understand that once entropy reaches the critical point set by the Creator, the entire Void will restart. At that time, let alone humans, even we angels and the demons in the Abyss will completely turn to zero!”
The more Michael spoke, the more emotional he became. He gestured with his hand and said, “At that time, according to the agreement, the Void will rule everything. From then on, there will be no life in the boundless Infinite Worlds, and all the efforts of the Creator will be destroyed! Now, even the demons of the Abyss feel that something is wrong and are looking for means to resist the Void. In the end, you want to prevent me from destroying the source, the culprits that caused the Void to spread?!”
“I’ve said it. The reason for the spread of the Void still needs to be investigated!” Gabriel’s tone was a little unhappy. “Are you so sure that the appearance of humanity is really causing all of this?”
“Isn’t it?” Michael asked. “They are the last creation left behind by the Creator. Before they appeared, the increase in entropy has always been stable and calm. Isn’t this enough to explain the problem?”
“Before the Creator left, he told us angels that our duty was to guide and monitor the operation of the Infinite Worlds!” Michael continued in an intense tone. “Just like the demons bear the responsibility to punish, we also have the enforcement authority to destroy. Why don’t you understand this? Why do you always have fantasies about humanity? Damn it, are you getting complacent because of the praises and beliefs of humans? It’s precisely because of your naive thoughts that humans are becoming more and more numerous, and it even made humans have the ridiculous notion of angels being their guardians… Lucifer was dissatisfied with your thoughts back then, so he became angry and joined the demons. Is it not enough for us to have one Lucifer?!”
Not to mention Uriel, even Roy was stunned when he heard their conversation!
He finally understood why this memory existed so deeply in Uriel’s soul for so long, and even memory cleaning could not erase this memory. It was because the information contained in this memory was too great… “Michael, I don’t want to argue with you!” Gabriel sighed. “You and I can say that we represent two different ideologies in Heaven. We are both Archangels. If even we have disagreements, what will the angels do?”
Perhaps hearing the sincerity in Gabriel’s words, Michael finally calmed down, but then he said, “Okay, let’s put this aside for now. But I absolutely disagree with your idea of using clones to transform into humans. I don’t understand what’s the point of doing this. Do you know that if there are very few soul fragments, it will cause your clones to become very weak? The demons of Hell are eyeing angels covetously. And you intend to use clones to turn into humans at this juncture? Do you no longer want these soul fragments?”
“Listen to me…” Gabriel explained. “I’ve always felt that the Creator wouldn’t leave behind a race like humanity for no reason. As the final creation of the Creator, I think that they may have aspects and effects that we don’t know. But to understand humanity, it’s not to look down on them from high above but to go deep into this race to understand their thoughts and experience their civilizations and customs. If we can’t even understand them, how can we easily judge them? If it’s really because of their existence that caused the increased spread of the Void and increased entropy, then I’ll support you without hesitation and then blow the Horn of Judgment Day with you. But what if it’s not? What if they were wronged?”
“All right, you always have your reasons!” Michael snorted. “But I’ll warn you again. If you do this, it’ll be extremely easy for your soul fragments to be contaminated. Humans are the most complicated beings. The sinfulness and inferiorities in them are the favorites of the demons. If your clones become contaminated by these sins during the time you’ve transformed into humans, it might lead to your fall! I don’t want to see the appearance of a second Lucifer. So if something like this happens to you, without hesitation, I will kill your clones, destroy your soul fragments, and even… kill you!”
“I understand. I will carry out this matter quietly!” Gabriel nodded. “I won’t let the demons notice it and give them a chance. You have to promise me that you will have some patience with the humans before I make a decision!”
“…” Michael was silent for a while before finally nodding. “I promise!”
Gabriel finally smiled when he heard this. It just could not be seen under the hood of his robe. He said in a light tone, “Okay, our argument just now may have frightened the cute little fellow. We need to apologize!”
With that, Gabriel raised his head and looked in the direction of Uriel, who was hiding in the tree crown. “My dear, how long are you going to hide? Eavesdropping is not a good
habit!”
Knowing that she had been discovered, Uriel nervously drilled out of the gaps of the leaves, flew down, and stood on the ground. In the memory, Uriel’s perspective rose to look up at Gabriel and said carefully, “Sorry, I didn’t mean to. I just… just got lost!”
Upon hearing her words, Gabriel squatted down and let Roy, who had been watching the memory, see Gabriel’s face at close range for the first time. Unfortunately, Archangel Gabriel had already completely elementalized into light, so he could only see a dazzling light under his hood.
“It’s okay, my dear!” Gabriel said gently. “We don’t blame you, but promise me that you’ll become a powerful angel in the future and bury what you heard deep in your heart, okay?”
The viewing angle shook twice, indicating that Uriel was nodding hurriedly.
Gabriel’s appearance was completely different from what Roy remembered. Back in the Van Helsing world, when Gabriel descended, he was so cold and terrifying! Roy did not know if he was like this with every angel, or whether it was because of Uriel’s identity as an original angel and her very young age back then that made Gabriel so gentle. But in any case, angels treated their own race completely different from how they treated demons…
The memory abruptly stopped here, and there was no more follow-up, but Roy could not calm down for a long time.
He had wondered why Archangel Gabriel had a weak human clone in the Van Helsing world, and now that he had accidentally obtained Uriel’s soul memory, he finally understood…
Moreover… there seemed to be more than one such weak human clone, and maybe they were in many places in the Infinite Worlds!
The information contained in Uriel’s memory was too great. After Roy finished watching it, his mind was in a mess, so he had to spend a long time trying to think about it and sorting out his thoughts…
