Sign a contract with the devil

Greed's soul

When the world first opened, there was chaos.God created the tree of life, hung heaven on the top of the tree, and knotted hell on the root of the tree. The long trunk between heaven and hell grew out of the human world.God said that there must be light, and light shines on all things in the heaven; God said that only light is not enough, and there must be darkness, so the hell world was born in the world of death, where there is always darkness, and even light cannot enter.God hung everything on the tree of life, divided the heaven into the sixth day, the fourth day, the second day and the first day, and created angels to manage these four days.He sprinkled all the dark substances in hell, and gave birth to demons to manage hell.But in order to prevent these demons from going to the other two worlds, God created the sea of ​​fire and the underworld in the hell world, and then separated the hell world from the other two worlds with the Red Sea.

God is the Creator, He is the source of all, the only master, the manager of the universe, the immortal, the eternal, the absolute.The whole universe is in the body of God, who is all-encompassing and all-encompassing.God is not limited by time and space, but the creatures he created have rise and fall.Including the tree of life.

The tree of life is the support of the three realms and the source of life.Its life is infinitely long, but there is always an end.

In order to delay the aging of the tree of life, God created creatures and placed them in the human world, that is, human beings.The power of human belief is absorbed by the tree of life, which can slow down its aging.But the world is developing slowly, and people gradually do not believe in the power of gods, and instead use their own power to build the human world. Some people even invent spells that can make contracts with demons, driving the power of demons to fulfill their wishes.This man was King Solomon. After his death, the Babylonians invaded and released the demon sealed in the bottle. The world was in chaos, and the tree of life was aging faster.

This made God very angry, and he was going to send divine punishment to punish these human beings who betrayed God.One of the maharajas, the archangel Michael who had guarded the tree of life for 720 years, stood up. He spoke good words for mankind, and vowed to go down to the human world to save mankind, and will The demon is re-sealed.

God agreed.But he asked Michael to save mankind with a mortal body, and divided his memory into four parts and sealed them in four different places in the human world.

Michael, whose power was sealed and became a mortal, made a contract with Lucifer, the master of hell, to seal the demons with his power in order to defeat the demons and re-seal them.But he lost his memory, and he also forgot the spell to summon Lucifer, who had made a contract with him.Gabriel came to his aid but was slow to teach him the spell to summon Lucifer.

Out of some kind of selfishness, Archangel Gabriel decided to make a contract with the devil himself to seal 72 demon gods instead of Michael.It was the lazy king Belial who made the contract with Gabriel.

Now that Michael has retrieved part of his memory, Gabriel decided to tell him the truth and gave Michael the book with the spell to summon the demon. "You were not a human being, Michael, you were the head of the seven archangels. You once fought against the serpent, Satan, and protected the tree of life from being destroyed by it. You alone blocked the Assyrians from attacking Jerusalem." Bailie said.

Michael was shocked. He knew that some of Gabriel's abilities were beyond the capabilities of human beings, but the truth was even more divorced from the reality that human beings could accept than he thought.Just yesterday, he was an ordinary human being, and today he has become an Archangel.

"So, what is recorded in the Bible is true?" Michael asked.

"Most of it is true, but not comprehensive." Gabriel said, "Most of the souls of human beings after death come from the tree of life and return to the human world to be reborn. The number of angels in the heaven is not determined by God, but It is decided by the seven archangels. We are responsible for the management of the heavens, and God has entrusted everything to us. Man was also created by God to us. At that time, we were created by you, me, and Raphael according to the will of God. people."

"I only remember part of it. I can't remember what you said." Michael said.

"It's okay, I will help you retrieve the remaining three parts of memory." Gabriel said, "but you can't summon Lucifer now, and only you know the most important spell. Now that you forget it, no one will know it .”

At this moment, Beryl interrupted their conversation, "It's getting late, go to sleep."

Lying on the bed, I closed my eyes and thought of Gabriel's words. The Bible says that love is patient and kind.All of this must be done with love, Michael thought, the Archangel Michael must love people very much, otherwise he would not have done all these things.Is the angel who embraces everyone like that really me?

With such questions in mind, Michael slowly fell asleep.

When he woke up, Gabriel was sitting at the dining table having breakfast.Today's breakfast is toast, fruit salad and milk. One side of the bread is baked golden. From a distance of one bed, Michael can smell the aroma of wheat.Looking at Gabriel, who was wearing a white shirt and gray slacks, standing at the dining table eating breakfast, the bizarre words he said yesterday were all like a dream come up in a dream, not real at all.

Belial was holding a glass of milk, leaning on Gabriel's shoulder with sleepy eyes, saw Michael getting up, and greeted Michael very normally: "Are you awake? Let's have breakfast." Beryl said generously.

All of this must be a dream, Michael thought, everything that happened yesterday was indeed a dream of his own.

But the book on the table told him that everything was not a dream.Starting today, Gabriel will slowly teach him how to summon his familiar, how to use it to fight, and even take him to seal the demon together.Gabriel said that only demons can sense where demons are, so only those who have signed a contract with demons can perceive the existence of other demons.

Gabriel signed a contract with Belial, and through Belial he could see other demons.But to find the 72 demon gods, it is impossible to know where they are just by induction.You must go to hell, where you will find the soul whose power has been swallowed by one of the 72 demon gods. Only through the dream of this soul can you find the unsealed demon.After finding the sealed demon, let the familiar who formed a contract with him defeat him, and take away the power of the soul swallowed by the unsealed demon, and then seal him back to the 72 Demon God Pillar again.

Back to Israel from Cairo, during the day Gabriel took Belial to inquire about the devil, and Michael was with them.

That day they arrived at a church. In the misty dawn, it stood tall and short among tall and short buildings, and its orange glazed tiles gleamed.The tallest building in the vicinity here is the church tower, and five times a day, there are clear bells from there.Here is a religious residential area, where a group of devout Catholics gather.They believe in the Lord, believe that people will go to heaven if they do good deeds, and go to hell if they do bad deeds, and they believe that Jesus will help them cleanse their souls on Sunday.

Belial walked in front. He walked quickly, passed through the main hall, and arrived at the cemetery.

The cemeteries in this area are all behind the church, and all the people lying here were once believers of the Lord.Belial stood by one of the tombstones, waiting for Gabriel.

We can see that the believer's name is engraved on the square tombstone-Grady Ivanov.There is a red gem inlaid in the middle of his photo. In the photo, he seems to be contemplative and patient, his expression is stiff and numb, and there are large shadows in his eyes.

"Have you found his name?" Gabriel asked Belial as soon as he arrived.

"En." Belial nodded, and moved closer to Gabriel, hugging him with both hands, resting his head on Gabriel's shoulder, eyes half-closed.Michael noticed that he was a little different from usual, and his face looked a little tired.

"Let's go then," Gabriel said.

After leaving the church, I summoned the Hell Bus again at the nearby bus stop, and staggered to the ferry.

"Come on board, gentlemen," said the boatman.

After getting on the boat, Michael looked into the river.This time he saw the familiar yet unfamiliar picture again, Michael couldn't help asking: "Are you Lucifer?" He leaned out and looked down.

The boat rocked and the boatman woke Michael with his oar. "Don't talk to Ye Mei, they are the best at deceiving people, no matter how deep your heart is hidden, they can lure you with what you want most, once you fall, you will sink into the river and become their nourishment."

After getting off the boat, Belial led them to the nightless city of Dokonas at the foot of the mountain.Since the Dokonas were built by the river, they reached the city in no time.

Dokonas, the city that never sleeps, is a city that is closest to the world of hell. It is built on the river that serves as the passage between the world of man and hell. Every house in the city has a luminous sapphire on the roof. Si shines like daylight.Here is the city of the greedy king Mammon, and he is in the castle in the center of the city.Belial summoned the wagon pulled by the griffin, and they flew straight to the castle in the wagon.

Mamen was counting gold coins in the warehouse, and Beryl broke in directly, pushing the wall of gold coins stacked by Mamen by the door.

"Mammon! Mammon!" cried Belial.

"Stop, stop shouting, I'm here." Mamen crawled out from the gold coin.

"Come here quickly, I need your help." Beryl said.

"What's the matter?" Mammon asked.

"We would like to ask your help in finding the soul of a man," Gabriel said. "His name is Greed Ivanov."
