What? The angel was myself?
Luo Mi subconsciously touched his eyes.
After he upgraded to the angelic physique, his hair and eyes turned a fiery orange-red. He initially thought it was a special trait brought about by his previous fire demon physique, but now he couldn’t help but feel that it had some deeper meaning.
—Was I the one with God’s Wisdom?
Luo Mi had previously suspected that the time travel was a hoax. But after careful recollection, he could clearly recall his past on Earth, his family, classmates, and so on, which didn’t seem like something fabricated for him. Moreover, when he heard about the deeds of the God’s Wisdom, Luo Mi felt no sense of déjà vu.
However, Luo Mi was unsure of the extent to which the power of a god could be achieved, so he could only leave it as a question mark.
With this in mind, Luo Mi asked, “Are there any precedents of humans evolving into angels?”
“Only the sinners who devoured God’s Wisdom during the Second Age became angels for a short time, but later, because they did not meet the requirements for angelic status, they fell and became demons.”
So, the original demons were fallen from incomplete angels? Luo Mi vaguely grasped the system’s logic in turning him into an angel: “What are the requirements of an angel?”
The Pope pondered for a moment: “God will naturally not explain but based on the speculation of the description of angels, there should be several characteristics: wings symbolizing the heavenly paradise, formlessness and intangibility symbolizing transcendence of the life system, and holy light or holy fire symbolizing the power of God.”
Luo Mi felt a chill run down his spine: the fleshy wings of a succubus, the transparency of a phantom, the magical flames of a fire demon… these low-grade angelic features pieced together from the lowest-ranking demon species actually allowed him to leap into becoming a true angel in one step!
—No, there must be something more important…
Luo Mi recalled the angelic halo above Anos’s head that had entered her body and suddenly realized: these three conditions should be the basic threshold, and Anos’s power was the core element that allowed him to transform into an angel.
In other words, Anos should now have lost his immense power of holy light.
Where was he? Had he encountered any danger?
Luo Mi pursed his lips, glanced at the old pope, and did not rashly communicate with him.
Throughout the dream today, he was constantly asking questions, revealing almost no important information about himself. He wasn’t sure if the pope was lying to him or if he had been influenced by someone else.
Having no immediate questions, Luo Mi noted down how he arrived at the consciousness space created by Saint Gregory III and exited the dream.
After leaving, Luo Mi considered it for a moment and decided to go talk to Lord Zixiang again to see if he had any clues.
But after silently repeating “Sinarat” in his mind several times, he still did not see the real dream open up to him.
Had Lord Zixiang abandoned him?
Luo Mi recalled for a moment and suddenly felt a little ashamed: when he was affected by the divine punishment, he was still connected to the real dream!
Even Anos, who was also part of the sacred system, was seriously injured by the divine punishment. Could it be that Lord Zixiang, as a demon lord, was also purified by the divine punishment along with the real dream?
“I really didn’t mean it…” Luo Mi muttered without any sympathy, solemnly making the sign of the cross for Lord Zixiang.
….
The next day, Luo Mi still spent time in the library of the White Tower.
This time, however, he was focused on finding information about the two angels, God’s Wisdom and God’s Heart.
He had always had a question in his mind: since successive popes had confirmed that the two angels did indeed exist, why did they erase the angels’ names?
After going through all the top-secret documents related to angels, Luo Mi’s doubts not only did not diminish, but deepened in another direction: if there was still a lot of information related to God’s Wisdom, there was very little about God’s Heart!
It’s as if this angel simply descended to earth, did nothing, and then silently returned to heaven.
Not just the scriptures, Luo Mi thought back and realized that in the past he had always focused on the God’s Wisdom, seemingly subconsciously ignoring the existence of another angel.
There wasn’t much information about the two angels, but with the help of the Scepter of Glory, Luo Mi finished reading it in one morning and compiled it.
These materials showed that God’s Wisdom was favored by God and was not respectful or polite to God. He often talked and laughed with God, while God’s Heart was taciturn, rarely joining them, and preferring to stand silently on the sidelines.
God’s Wisdom was also kind to mankind, often helping them and full of curiosity about the human world, wanting to try everything. At the same time, it also imparted to mankind many survival skills and knowledge, a contradictory combination of ignorance and profound knowledge.
God’s Wisdom once brought warmth to the earth with fire, and since his eyes and hair were also like fire, the blessed humans called him “Seraphim,” which he gladly accepted.
God’s Heart, on the other hand, had eyes and hair as white as mercury, and was indifferent in nature. It neither actively helped mankind nor talked to God or other angels, preferring to observe silently by itself.
“Just in terms of appearance, God’s Wisdom was exactly the same as me now; personality, personality… I think there are still some differences.” Luo Mi analyzed himself, “But the difference between God’s Heart and Anos is too great.”
The Holy Son version of Anos loved the world and life, while the Demon version of Anos was quite vengeful, passionate, and even a bit extreme and crazy. They seemed to have nothing to do with the cold God’s Heart.
“But if both Anos are personalities created by God’s Heart, then perhaps that makes sense?”
The thought of this possibility immediately weighed on Luo Mi’s heart.
Although he hadn’t figured out exactly how far his feelings for Anos had gone, he did like Anos very much.
The thought that Anos, whom he had spent so much time with, was a fake persona was something he couldn’t accept, either emotionally or rationally.
“If you really want to talk about it, even a two-dimensional character can collapse?” Luo Mi laughed at herself and sighed. “Anyway, we have to find Anos first.”
The Vatican had been searching for Anos with all its might, but there had been no news.
Luo Mi also considered why even the Glory Scepter couldn’t find Anos’s figure, and only thought of three possibilities: one was a place like the Hig Palace that could shield the Glory Scepter; the second was the Demon Realm; the third was that the silver-white consciousness can resist the Glory Scepter and had been using Anos’s body.
Although he would be able to see the people of the Empire at the official papal enthronement ceremony next month, Luo Mi already planned to sneak off to the capital of Hig in a few days to check on the situation. The reason for waiting a few days was that Cardinal Thomas had not yet returned.
Records and tests in the holy city of Bethlehem revealed that the power source for the demon Anos’s attack on the city came from the steam system of the capital city of Hig. This angered the entire cardinal council, who consulted Luo Mi on how to deal with the capital city of Hig.
Luo Mi, of course, didn’t want to get involved, but he still participated in the Cardinals’ meeting and reached a preliminary consensus:
This godfather and uncle of Anos might know something.
As for what he could do now… Luo Mi touched the Glory Scepter, his eyes brightening slightly.
Since all the popes throughout history had been able to use great prophecy to travel back in time and meet with angels from the past, why couldn’t he?
He went straight through the torrent of history to meet the two angels from the past and see which one was Anos!
….
Then, Luo Mi failed miserably.
He had mastered the method of using the Great Prophecy, but when he gripped the Scepter of Glory and tried to use it, before he could even let his consciousness enter the Scepter of Glory, he felt the Holy Light power he possessed pouring out like a floodgate being opened, and it was soon on the verge of drying up!
Luo Mi considered many possibilities, but he never expected that he would be powerless!
“Uh, thinking about it carefully, I’m still a succubus at my core. I stacked up a few low-level demons like I was adding buffs, and finally I got an angel, and I only have a portion of Anos’s power…” Luo Mi felt that she might have overestimated herself a bit and lowered her expectations. “Looks like I need to consider some external energy sources.”
In theory, the Scepter of Glory could mobilize the power of all churches, clergy, and believers within the Light Domain, but Luo Mi did not intend to do so— he was unsure how much divine power he would consume and worried that it would cause problems for churches and believers in various places.
In addition, there was something with a sufficiently large source of power…
Luo Mi blinked. There really was one, and he was right there in the Vatican.
Divine blood seized from the Duchy of Perde!
The demon Anos could use it as a source of power to control the entire Duchy of Perde. After obtaining it, Anos immediately had it sent back to the Holy See. It was currently being stored in the Holy See’s research institute, and researchers occasionally went to investigate it. However, because the significance of this bottle of divine blood was quite important, it could only be observed and studied without being damaged or consumed.
However, Luo Mi had no such concerns and opened the bottle of divine blood directly, ordering someone to bring it over.
The cardinal gave him a strange look, then respectfully accepted the order and left.
Luo Mi didn’t care what he was thinking. After the divine blood was delivered, he immediately dismissed everyone else and began the experiment.
The divine arts he had learned so far all had quite obvious functions and divine characteristics, and naturally there were many methods that used sacred objects as a source of power to perform divine arts.
Just as Luo Mi finished setting up one of the divine magic arrays and was preparing to cast the Great Prophecy spell, a voice he hadn’t heard in a long time rang in his ears: “If you want to be completely brainwashed by the gods, you can use divine blood.”
Luo Mi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly turned her head and met a pair of cold, blood-red eyes.
Although it was only a short time, the face of this most powerful demon seemed to have become thinner and his skin paler, giving him a fragile appearance as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.
Upon seeing that familiar face, Luo Mi was instantly overjoyed: “You…you’re still alive?”
A chilling smile stretched across the demon’s face: “What, disappointed?”
Luo Mi paused, snapping out of his reverie, and asked with concern, “Are you feeling alright?”
The Blackwing Lord sneered, “I have to thank you, His Holiness Pope Saint Anos I.”
He emphasized the words “His Holiness the Pope”.
Luo Mi still felt intimidated by him and subconsciously took a step back, explaining, “I didn’t want to be the Pope on my own initiative.”
The Blackwing Lord reached out, and a dark shadow emerged from the ground, forming a complex seal on the bottle of silver divine blood.
Luo Mi seemed thoughtful: “Using divine blood will lead to being brainwashed by the gods? Why can you use it?”
The Blackwing Lord did not answer but added several more layers of seals before looking at Luo Mi: “Now it’s your turn.”
Luo Mi was stunned: “Huh?”
Before he could speak, his shadow seemed to come alive and hugged him from behind, restraining his hands, feet, and neck, freezing him in place in a very strange posture.
The scepter of glory fell to the ground, then floated up, seemingly awaiting its master’s command.
Luo Mi hesitated for a moment, then patiently said instead of using the Scepter of Glory, “Although I don’t know what misunderstanding you have about me, I’m not actually on the side of the Holy See right now…”
The Blackwing Lord clearly didn’t believe him at all: “We’ll talk when we get there.”
Luo Mi was taken aback again: “Where to?”
The Blackwing Lord’s face, identical to Anos’s, revealed a cold smile: “The Demon Realm.”
After saying that, he snapped his fingers, and countless shadowy figures surged from the ground, enveloping the two of them before disappearing without a trace.
