BXBX NOVEL Chapter 218 - Fallen Angel
-----
What resulted to lie within the enormous pit in the middle of the Gagap Continent ended being an angelic beauty! An Angel in all of its glory, a Tenshin! Oh my god!
However… she was a clumsy idiot, and she didn\'t had any remorse in accepting this fact.
Apparently, her story went as far as this:
She was an Angel employed by The One to fight the threat that had attacked the Universe, the Forbidden One. Allying with the rest of her siblings, Angels, Cherubins, Archangels, and more, they destroyed this threat alongside the other powerful beings in the Universe that had allied them.
However in the moment of truth, as the Forbidden One was dying and his entire body was being torn apart and falling across the Universe into meteors of darkness and void, she was too clumsy and got scared, ending up not conjuring her Divine Aegis, the natural super all-rounder barrier that all angels have, which ended in her being hit by a few of the smaller fragments, which parasitized her body and threw her off the orbit.
She fell through the entire universe until she ended falling over this planet, her fall was so strong it felt a massive crater and slightly moved the planet from its original orbit… the cataclysmic event was so big that her very fall was documented by the people of this planet as some kind of major event where a god that oversaw this planet died or something.
When she fell into this planet, the fragments were still eating her up and she couldn\'t stop the in time, so she had the genius idea of sealing herself using special Divine Seals capable of weakening and absorbing the energy of the fragments (and her own body too). This way, she managed to weaken the fragments over the millions of years she stayed here, until they ended merging with her body completely, but this also weakened her severely and she couldn\'t free herself from her own seals.
She ended trapping herself inside her own seal, which constantly weakened her slowly, more and more, she grew way weaker than her original self, even a weak Angel had a power way above normal Deity-Realm beings… but she lost most of it while sleeping.
Chaos and his group had actually sensed all this rich divine energy coming out of her, this was due to her seal which leaked all the energy outside, over the years, a big ecosystem build up around here, mostly of monsters feeding on her energy and evolving better ways to absorb it, while there were other monsters that predated on them. The entire continent shaped itself to her presence, and she became a big resource of energy for many species that evolved to specialize into taking and absorbing her power.
But now that she was finally unsealed by Chaos devouring the seals, the energy stopped and the ecosystem was most likely going to give a big flop eventually… but for now, that wasn\'t her problem so she shouldn\'t really care.
Nonetheless, meeting a real-life Angel felt more mystical and special than meeting Demons for Chaos. Aruliel felt like she was a whole different being by itself, even her presence was different and more apart from him, but at the same time, due to the fragments fusing with her and "contaminating" parts of her body, she ended resulting in becoming closer to him than she thought.
She had also become somewhat of a Fallen Angel at this point, as she had literally fallen from grace accidentally due to her own clumsiness. And she ended becoming corrupted by the fragments of a literal alien from this universe…
She also said that the war wasn\'t just against the Forbidden One, but there were others Outer Gods that were trying to break into the Universe and invade it. Chaos didn\'t knew the details nor her, but it might seem that these Outer Gods that lived within the Outer Void had a big fixation into wanting to conquer this Universe and invade it, so they were always trying to do this, but the powerful forces of the Universe always managed to -somehow- defeat them.
Due to not having anywhere to go now, and most likely believing that the Angels might not welcome her in Heaven anymore as she was now, she thought she had nowhere to go and would remain forever alone, but Chaos decided to accept her on his crew due to her latent potential, she looked like a strong fighter after all, even as weakened as she was.
This moved Aruliel to tears as she kneeled before Chaos like a clumsy little girl that has never ever shown affection. Chaos began to wonder if Angels were THAT cold… how come abyssal and monstrous beings like them were more benevolent and nicer than angels themselves?
She was now infected by these fragments and was inspected by Chaos in her way out of the pit, but he had found out that she wasn\'t being encroached by them, and that the fragments had entered in some state of comatose after all these years having their power drained and were just part of her body now.
Of course she didn\'t liked the idea of her new appearance and made it quite clear as she flew away from the pit.
"Uwaaahh… I don\'t like this appearance, my cute little white wings are tainted with darkness, my skin is all infected too, and it looks like I am wearing some kind of strange and edgy tattoo… And these two horns! O-Ouch, they\'re sharp…" she cried.
She was very talkative and actually fun to look at doing clumsy things.
"You\'ve not realized your eye is also red?" asked Abyss.
"UEGH?! Red?!"
She quickly generated a mirror made of light magic, and saw her own face, aside from the tiny black and purple horn in her forehead, there was this one eye which was completely crimson-red, and it even had a sharp iris as if it were the eye of a demon…
"Uguuhhh… Uwahh… Uuaggh… Uuughuaaggh… Sob, sob…" she cried.
"She really makes weird sounds." Thought Chaos.
