Amway from heaven
Work related
feel.
Three or ten minutes later, the trainee angel appeared with two freshly baked black wings on his back, and he turned around awkwardly, as if his body was no longer his own.
"Well, not bad, so even if your hair is still golden, no one will doubt that you are an angel." Lei put away the hair dyeing tools.Infernal creatures are not good at material magic, but they can use various herbs to achieve the same effect.
"This kind of dye is waterproof and heat-resistant. It should be used every six months. If it is advanced, it must be used immediately, because you will grow new wings. The current market price is a third-level medium gemstone, and I only charge you a third-level gem." Wait for the gemstone to be ready."
"Okay." Mikael nodded, he knew that in places other than heaven, items need to be obtained through exchange, "But I don't have gems on me, can you accept other things? I only have this sword now, I don't know how many gems it's worth."
"Then give it back to me later! You need this sword to fight." Lei said generously.The price he offered was at least ten times higher than the price of hair dyes on the market. Of course, it was impossible for the trainee angel to know about this, and even if he knew, he would not have the sense of bargaining. "I should have given you another set of uniforms for trainee fallen angels, but your figure doesn't seem suitable, so I have to wear ordinary swordsman uniforms for the time being."
The design of the trainee fallen angel uniform is bold and explicit, entirely to set off the slender figure of the young man. The fabric of the whole uniform is pitifully small, which is not suitable for Mikael, who is well-proportioned and slender.
"I think the wings are a bit sticky." Mikael said with a frown.
"Don't worry, this dye won't harm the feathers. Maybe it's not dry yet, you can try blowing it out."
"Well, okay, I'll get used to it as soon as possible." Mikael spread his wings and pointed them in the direction of the wind, "Where are we going?"
"To the south, there should be a small market in the south, where we can confirm the direction of the nearest city and earn some travel expenses by the way."
"Let's go then!"
In this way, the angel and the devil embarked on a journey, both of them thought it would be a good start...
☆、Fried small balls
The small bazaar that was supposed to arrive soon did not appear on the horizon until three days later.Mikael was acutely aware of his new friend's slight road-crazy tendencies, and after he took the initiative to take over the map and compass, they finally stopped wandering around and returned to the right direction.
"We're here!" Ray whistled happily.
"If we don't go north first, then go east all the way, and then go northwest for a whole day, we should have arrived here two and a half days ago." Sitting behind Lei, Mikael held the rein and said solemnly Tell the truth.
The hump of the dromedary forces two people who decide to share a ride to stick together.At first Mikael was not used to such close contact, he only held the hands of other apprentice angels when he was very young, and he still remembers that wonderful feeling.After growing into an outstanding trainee angel, he has been enjoying "glorious isolation" because he is too good. This is the first time that this kind of situation with other people's chest and back has happened.
However, although angels have wings, they are not suitable for long-distance flight. Riding a dromedary is much easier than walking.After traveling with Ray for a few days, Mikael got used to it a little bit.Ray's shoulders were slightly narrower than his, but he was about half a head taller.Although the line of sight was half blocked by the black head, Mikael felt extremely at ease.
Strange, could it be that he actually likes physical contact?Just never had a chance before?
Mikael put the reins in one hand, freeing the other to wrap around Ray's waist.This was not his illusion, the physical contact with Lei did bring him a strange sense of comfort, not only physically, but even the magic power in his body fluctuated slightly.
"What's wrong?" Ray turned his head, because of Mikael's behavior, his expression was stiff.
"I seem to like the feeling of hugging you." Although Mikael was puzzled, he answered very frankly.
This is the first time he has a particular liking for something.
Could it be that the reason why I can't forget the trainee angel who slept in the bed next to her when she was a child and once went to the bathroom hand in hand is because of this reason?
The young angel's hand is very easy to pinch, the flesh is almost hard to touch the bones, and the skin is as delicate as fruit. Mikael really doesn't want to let go after going to the toilet.
What's the name of that trainee angel?It seems that I haven't seen it since I started learning swordsmanship?
Mikael did not let go of Lei's waist when he was distracted, which made Lei's face completely dark.
"You! Say! What! What? Can you repeat it again?!"
The magic pressure released by Lei made the dromedary almost want to lie on the ground, but unfortunately it had no effect on the trainee angel.As his mood fluctuated, a dark cloud quickly gathered in the sky, blue lightning passed through the cloud, and a thunderstorm was about to come.
"I said that I seem to like the feeling of hugging you very much. No, it's too early to draw a conclusion. I'd better try a few more people before talking!" Mikael said seriously.
He felt that if it turned out that he really liked being in close contact with people so much, he might as well apply to be a Thanksgiving Angel after completing the trial.Thanksgiving angels often give blessings to believers in the form of hugs, while combat angels do not have so many opportunities to hug people.
"You mean, you have to try a few more people to confirm the feel before you can confirm whether you like to hold me?" The words that came out from between the teeth were extremely cold, but it's a pity that the trainee angel is learning about people's faces. The evaluation on the Internet has always been F, but fortunately, Heaven does not evaluate this course.
"Well, yes. Let's go, it seems to be raining." Mikael looked at the dark clouds that were getting thicker and thicker in the sky, and felt the rapid change of the climate in hell. A few minutes is enough to brew a storm .
"Hehe..." The hell traveler suddenly put away the magic pressure and showed a warm smile, as if the person who just tortured the apprentice angel to death a hundred times in the fantasy world was not him at all. "Don't worry, today will be a good day." He said with a smile.
Thundercloud, which had lost its magical support, was like a hunting dog eager to catch up to its own tail. It quickly circled a few times in the sky and disappeared invisible.
"Huh?!" Mikael was so surprised that he even let go of Lei's arms.He looked Lei up and down, and he knew that contrary to angels, hell creatures are mostly proficient in spiritual magic, and some of them can even make predictions. Lei's ability to predict weather is obviously a similar talent.
What a useful talent!
"Let's go!" Mikael smiled and patted the dromedary's hump.
"I remembered, we can't just go in like this!" Ray said suddenly.
"what happened?"
"In hell it's considered bad manners not to wear a hat," Ray said solemnly.
Mikael looked at Lei, Lei's brown cloak was attached to a hat, while his swordsman uniform did not have a matching hat.
"Sorry." Mikael apologized for his rude behavior for several days, "I don't have a hat."
"I can lend it to you!" Lei kindly took out a green wide-brimmed hat from the space props, with a few half-bald red feathers stuck on the top of the hat.
The corner of Mikael's mouth twitched, he felt that the hat and the clown boots on Lei's feet had deeply provoked his aesthetic sense.But who said he has no hat?
"Thank you." Mikael grabbed a lizard from the hat and put the hat on his head.
"A Tier [-] medium gem, thank you for your patronage."
"I'm just borrowing."
"This is the price of the giant dragon lizard that you let go just now."
The trainee angel glanced at the direction in which the lizard was fleeing, and the creature with a bullish name had indeed disappeared.He had to accept his fate: "Okay, put it on my account!" Keeping an account when buying things is one of the new skills he learned in hell. Other skills are about how to find forage, how to distinguish salt and sugar, and how to read. Hell universal text.
After 10 minutes, they finally stepped into the destination.
"Everyone around me seems to be looking at me?" The trainee angel kept a serious face and communicated with his companion in a low voice.
"This is normal. This is the territory of the demon king Bryce, and not many fallen angels have the guts to come here."
"Uh……"
Mikael found that most of the people in the market had gloomy faces, and many of them directly covered their faces under their collars or hats.This is indeed very similar to the description of demons in the book—insidious, cunning, hiding their heads and revealing their tails, and they can fly with the fleshy wings on their backs at critical moments.
"Will they attack me?"
The trainee angel was on guard secretly, ashamed that he once thought there was harmony between fallen angels and demons in hell.If it weren't for Lei being by his side, he would never be able to complete the arduous task of influencing the ultimate devil king alone!
"No, very few people will take the initiative to attack food merchants." Lei took out a red hat of the same style as Mikael's head from the space props (the feathers on it were green), and put it on his head up, and started yelling—
"Delicious snacks from the ancient East! Black dead bug-flavored deep-fried small balls, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, now you only need a small herb or a piece of gemstone to buy six! It is an excellent snack that has been praised by your son. Want to eat, each one has genuine black dead worm stuffing, six only need a small herb or a gem fragment! What are you waiting for? Don’t miss it when you pass by! Just a small herb or a gem fragment , experience the ultimate in dark cuisine, feel the hell on the tip of your tongue!"
Mikael was completely stunned.While he was dazed, Lei had already set up a small trolley, put a hot oil pan on it, and took out a large bucket of batter-like ingredients from the space props like a magic trick.
"The great opportunity to pay off the loan is just around the corner!" Lei turned his head and whispered to Mikael.
"what?"
"You're in charge of the croquettes, and I'm in charge of collecting the money."
"But I won't..."
Mikael stared dumbfounded at the demons rushing toward them like a tide. If he had been on the battlefield, he would have been torn to pieces.But even if he was not on the battlefield, he still doubted whether he could survive in front of this group of demons with shining eyes.
So I had to learn and sell now!
Mikael followed Lei's instructions and carefully fried every small ball stuffed with black dead bugs.He mechanically dug out two-thirds of the batter from the bucket, rubbed it in the palm of his hand three times, squeezed it slightly and threw it into the oil pan, then repeated this action six times, waited for 45 seconds, and then took out the small balls.
His hair was quickly greasy, his face was splattered with sweat and hot oil, his hands were covered in batter, and he had a large lump on his neck.The dirty samurai uniform and ugly green hat made the demons completely ignore the excellent looks of the apprentice angel.
In contrast, Ray maintained a perfect demeanor.Like a nimble fish, he took herbs and gems from one demon after another, and accurately calculated how many fried balls Mikael should give each other.When the crowd was too crowded, he even directed the demons to line up in a long line. The charm of food seemed to make the demons temporarily let go of their natural love for fighting.
The night was getting darker and thicker, and the guests finally gradually became rare.
Mikael took a moment to wipe his face with his sleeve. "How much do we make?" he asked a little eagerly.
"Together it is roughly equivalent to a third-tier inferior gemstone." Seeing Mikael's eyes light up slightly, Lei couldn't help but start hitting him, "Deduct the cost, and then deduct my share, the part you deserve Probably a second-tier inferior gem."
Mikael calculated that he would have to sell croquettes for another five days to pay off the loss caused by his accidentally letting go of the giant dragon lizard.As for paying off all the credit on his account, I'm afraid he still needs to find another way.But it's always good to pay off a little, and poor Apprentice Angel has been worrying about his debts since he came to hell.
"Are we still selling croquettes tomorrow?" Mikael asked seriously, not sure how many ingredients Ray still had.
Ray was immediately defeated by Mikael's expectant eyes.If Mikael hadn't done something that made him furious, he would never have thought of making such a harmless joke, asking Mikael to sell fried balls in the market.He thought that the current embarrassment would at least make Mikael feel frustrated, but he obviously underestimated the tolerance of his friend from heaven.
"No, let's find the most luxurious hotel and ask for the most comfortable room first, take a hot spring bath, and then have a good sleep." Lei took out a lace handkerchief and carefully wiped Mikael's face.
It was much more pleasing to the eye, and he regretted his previous decision.
"Don't rush to pay off the debt, it's rude," Ray said in a low voice.
Mikael felt that his magic power was fluctuating again. He looked at Lei's hand and tried hard to suppress the idea of asking Lei to wipe his face again. "Really? Didn't you lie to me that it's rude not to wear a hat?" he asked.
"This kind of hat is a symbol of the status of a gourmet merchant. There are only two kinds of fallen angels who can walk safely in the devil's territory, selling gourmet food or selling themselves as gourmet food." Lei smiled, "This is the most perfect cover. "
"Do you want to deal with these malicious demons first?" Mikael reminded in a low voice, his hand on the hilt of the sword.
☆, good and evil
The night in Hell was dry and cold. Most of the demons had gone to find a place to spend the night. The few demons who had been quietly lurking around seemed particularly conspicuous.
A tall and thin demon made a gesture, directing other malicious demons to gather around.
"It can be seen that your craftsmanship has brought you a lot of wealth." He said with a laugh.
Mikael recognized this devil, he had bought small fried balls from him at least three times today, and every time he took the balls, he would smile politely, just like his smile now.
"Look clearly, this is the true face of the devil." Ray whispered in Mikael's ear, "Sinister, cunning, and always evil."
His whisper was so malicious that Mikael couldn't help frowning.
"What beautiful fingers... so beautiful that people want to tear them off one by one, cut them open in the middle to dry, and make them into kitchen decorations." The tall and thin devil boasted in a flirtatious tone.
Mikael felt sick to his stomach, unable to understand the point of this pre-battle taunt.
Luckily the demons didn't keep him waiting too long.The money Mikael and Lei earned from selling fried balls made them jealous for a long time. Following the look of the tall and thin demon, the two demons took the lead in attacking from behind!
"careful!"
After warning Ray, Mikael ignored the attacker behind him.He rushed forward like a leopard, and his aura changed drastically.Without hesitation, Jianfeng pierced through a demon who hadn't had time to step forward, and the corpse was thrown in front of Lei as a shield.Mikael turned around quickly and cast a holy shock, causing all the demons around him to pause for a second.The sharp long sword took the opportunity to harvest two sinful lives. Mikael, who is known as the strongest apprentice angel in heaven, has never been a soft-hearted person when facing evil!
What the sword pointed at, wiped out all evil!
After solving the coveted demon, Mikael decisively let go of the tall and thin demon who was already alert, turned around and began to fight the two demons who attacked them from behind.The corpse he threw over at first had been hacked beyond recognition. Lei shrank behind the corpse, dodging left and right with funny postures, and gave the attacker a harmless electric shock from time to time.
Mikael thinks that Lei's strength should be more than that, but he doesn't intend to ask, he must take the responsibility of protecting his friends!
Mikael blessed himself with the holy armor, and received a heavy blow on the back, but it was not strong enough to break through the defense of the trainee angel.He took this opportunity to finish off one sneak attacker, and when he was about to kill the other, Ray blasted the demon into a pile of coke with a light wave.
Ray looked at his back with a displeased look on his face.Mikael didn't have time to think about it.
Now only the tall, thin demon is left, and he is the leader of the gang.
Mikael walked towards the last enemy step by step.After the battle just now, he felt that his strength had improved compared to before coming to hell.His body is extremely light, and his more powerful explosive power allows many skills to be displayed. His magic power has increased by about [-]%, and the magic power in his body is eager to try, clamoring for a big kill.
Mikael raised his long sword calmly!
"Wait a minute! Don't kill me, I have a good deal for you!" the tall, thin demon screamed.
Mikelton stopped, he suddenly remembered his debt.The tall and thin demon rolled his eyes and suddenly spread his wings to escape, but he was immediately knocked back to the ground by a lightning bolt.
"Don't rush away, let's talk about the good deal you said!" Lei walked in front of the half-burned demon, grinning and showing eight big white teeth. The unhappiness just now seemed to have disappeared.
"I... I have a mercenary letter from a nobleman, a real nobleman with his own badge! He wants to hire someone to escort him and his daughter back to his territory. All the rewards he gives are bright Glittering high-level gems! I am not with these people, I just want to take them to try their luck. Only those with mercenary certificates can participate in the assessment. The assessment is based on a group, and a group needs at least Three people. Once you pass the assessment, you can get one-third of the reward, and the remaining two-thirds can only be obtained after completing the escort task. Your skills are good, do you want to form a team with me to participate in the assessment? Really It's not that I wanted to rob you, I was just pushed out by them to talk." The tall and thin demon tried his best to show a sincere expression, and the impromptu robbery made him feel green with regret.
"That's it... But your mercenary status has been burned by me, right?" Lei shrugged, as if he didn't have much interest in this matter.
"No. It's..." The tall and thin demon raised his hand with difficulty.
"It's in your other pocket? Thanks for letting me know. To thank you, I'll chop more carefully this time."
Lei spread out his palms, and an electric arc flashed across the tall, thin demon, and then he lost his breath completely.Ray retrieved a carefully folded piece of paper from his pocket.
Mikael frowned: "I thought..."
"You think I'm going to negotiate a deal with him?" Ray laughed. "Demons are all cunning and unreliable. I bet only half of what he just said is true. We don't need to waste time on him. Since he told us If you do it, you should have the awareness of being robbed in reverse."
"I don't like it when you say that, you are also a devil." Mikael looked at Lei coldly.
"So you shouldn't trust me. I have lied to you many times, have you forgotten?" Lei tilted his head, looking indifferent.
"I believe my eyes." Mikael said after a few seconds of silence, "Whether it's a demon, a human, or an angel, no one is destined to be evil. I have no prejudice against demons, I only believe The truth I see with my eyes."
Lei's expression suddenly became a little complicated.
"Do you know?" He leaned closer to Mikael, "Someone told me this before. He said that the power of evil is more effective than the power of good when used in the right place. He believes that he has found the origin of the world, He believes that it is not the Creator God who maintains the world, but a more basic force that maintains the world. He calls it human nature. Whether it is human beings, angels, or demons, they all have human nature. Human nature promotes the birth of new life and promotes All things develop, which brings destruction and resurrection. He believes that neither angels nor demons can escape their essential humanity, so angels fall and villains repent at their deathbed. For this reason, he believes that all people are Equal. Open your heart, maybe the only king in hell is no different from passers-by on the ground, and there is no need to treat them differently."
Mikael opened his eyes slightly, surprised at this magical idea, and he felt as if he had caught some kind of vague inspiration.
"Who is he?" the trainee angel asked eagerly.
"It doesn't matter who he is." Lei pulled the corners of his lips, but there was not much smile on his face. "The important thing is that he died, and his theory was also wiped out."
Mikael: "..."
"Let's go! Don't waste the wonderful hours of the evening discussing such trivial matters."
Lei put away the trolley and walked forward with brisk steps, but Mikael felt that his friend was not in a happy mood.
"I'm sorry." Mikael hurried after Ray.
"what?"
"Your friend died. I'm sorry. But no one is immortal in this world. One day you or I will face death, but people's thoughts will not die because of death. I think he said very It makes sense, except that I don't think that the power of evil should be borrowed, even if it is used in the right place. I think evil can be influenced, but those who fail to be influenced must be eliminated." Mikael explained his thoughts seriously.
"You really don't know how to read people's mood." Lei turned his head and smiled bitterly at Mikael, "Don't you see that I don't want to talk about this issue? You can easily make me want to strangle you to death."
"I admit that I rarely think about other people's feelings, but that doesn't mean I don't notice yours. I can see that you are upset when talking about your friends, but I don't think running away is the solution. You should face the past more bravely."
"What do you think? What do you know?" Ray said sarcastically.
Mikael suddenly felt a little sad, but he didn't want to show it, and his usual serious face concealed it well.
"Well, I'll find a better time to talk about it," he said.
Yes, I don't know anything.
Ray must have been more upset than I was.
Mikael knew he should accept both conclusions.
"Are we still going to the hotel?" Mikael asked.
"Of course! I have to enjoy it! You need to change your clothes too." Ray narrowed his eyes.Mikael's swordsman's uniform was not only stained with the oil stains left by the croquettes, but also the demon that had just attacked him cut his back. Although his body was not injured because of the protection of the holy magic, his clothes were torn a bit. big hole.
It's a pity that this dress has only been worn for a short time and has to be changed.
Mikael's face stiffened again due to the increase in debt.
"Okay, let's take a shower and change clothes, and then discuss about the mercenary status." He said through gritted teeth.
The hell traveler quickly finds a luxury hotel with the trainee angel. Seeing the "huge" amount of accommodation expenses made Mikael terrified.Again he tried to instill in his friend that thrift is a virtue, but Ray laughed heartily.
"Don't worry! Our wallets will bulge up again after we're done guesting as mercenaries!"
"Is it very profitable to be a mercenary?" Mikael was a little puzzled, "That demon came to rob us even though he had the status of a mercenary."
"That's because he didn't have the confidence to be selected. Most of his mercenary certificates were obtained by fraud. A real nobleman would not be so blind when picking people. When we are successfully selected, we will have a chance to meet It's time for the nobles. Let's go and enjoy it! There is a hot spring in our room!"
On the way to the room, Mikael was still debating whether to accept such enjoyment, but after seeing the dense hot spring, he immediately took off his newborn baby state, and flew into the embrace of the spring water.
Heaven is always warm and humid, God knows how much he hates the dry, hot wind in hell!
"Aren't you coming down?" the trainee angel frankly invited his friend.
"Uh... not for the time being." Lei blinked his eyes and found a reasonable excuse for himself, "I want to deal with this lost bird first."
He unleashed a bolt of lightning with a wave of his hand, and a charred bird fell straight through the transom at the top of the room and into the hot spring pool.
☆, passing bird
Mikael watched the dark brown bird sink and float a few times in the hot spring pool, and he suddenly thought of those mechanical little ducks in the public baths in heaven.He never understood why there were ducks in the bath.
Then, when the bird sank again, what floated up was a dark-skinned boy!
"Cough...help! I can't swim! Cough cough...quick...help me! I'm not a bad person!"
So is this sentence a generic self-introduction from hell?
Mikael looked at the teenager struggling in the water.He looked like he was in his teens, with short purple hair and skin the color of chocolate mixed with milk.
"Help! The bird is drowning! Someone save me!!"
There are brown feathers growing between the teenager's arms and body, and it looks like his hands are also his wings.
Is this from the bird just now?
"This amount of water should not be able to submerge you." Mikael reminded while observing.The height of the hot spring pool has just reached Mikael's waist, and it is estimated that it can only reach the boy's shoulder at most.
"What are you talking about? Help... Huh? You really can't drown a bird!" The young man finally calmed down and looked around with wide-eyed eyes.His eyes were dark brown, with a circle of white eyeliner drawn around them, but at this moment, a small half of them had been dissolved by water.
"I'm not a bad bird, my name is Cain, I just passed by here." The boy introduced himself while trying to climb up to the edge of the hot spring with his wet wings, but unfortunately he failed several times.
Mikael lifted the boy from behind, pulled him ashore, then took the clothes from Lei, and dressed neatly again.
"By the way..." Cain glanced at Lei with lingering fear, "When I was passing by the market just now, I saw you guys killing those fellows who asked for trouble. At least three people can use that mercenary certificate." , Why don’t you take me with you! I can understand bird language and animal language, so I’ll be a good helper!”
"It turns out that you have been 'passing by' since so long ago." Lei dismissed Cain's lies lightly, and looked at Cain with his arms crossed, "It's not impossible to join, first you have to prove your worth. Do you know how to spy as a bird?"
"Scouting? I never do the drudgery of flying around! Ah no, I mean, if you can subdue a few birds, I can train them to be the best scouts." Cain flattered explain.
Mikael looked at Lei, seeking the latter's opinion with his eyes.If the mercenary status really needs three people, then Cain would be a good choice.The bird doesn't look very smart, and its strength is terrible.But Ray should be more experienced than him about how to choose a companion in hell.
"Give us your mark, or we won't talk about it." Lei said in a businessman's tone.
"Mark? That's as effective as a real name!" Cain loosened the old vest that he took off and twisted half way, and looked at Lei warily, "What do you want this for? Only the rank is two ranks higher than mine. To summon me with a sign, who are you?"
"Just out of interest." Ray pointed at Mikael. "My friend likes to collect the marks of hell creatures. He is fascinated by those graphics. We won't do anything with your marks, I promise. Besides, Do you think we have two levels of strength higher than yours?"
Cain glanced at Mikael suspiciously, and the trainee angel looked back at him expressionlessly.
"You... are not like nobles. Even if you are stronger than me, you are limited. Well, I will give you my mark!"
"Teach him to write." Ray raised his chin in Mikael's direction.
Cain hesitated, but eventually taught Mikael how to draw his mark.
"Don't try to summon me with a mark, even if you have enough strength. Both my real name and mark are protected by magic. Unless you find the right sacrifice, you will never be able to summon me." He warned in a whisper.
"It's so interesting, you've been domesticated." Lei looked at Cain with interest.
"I'm not domesticated! It's just that someone is willing to provide me with a little protection." The expression on Cain's face seemed a little unwilling, "Why are you talking so much? Can I join now?"
"Unfortunately, we are going to rest now. It is really tiring to sell fried small balls at the market." Ray yawned falsely, "Tomorrow morning, if we don't change our minds because of sleep, we will find You talked about it." He pointed to the direction of the door.
Cain looked very angry and wanted to argue, but finally swallowed his anger and chose to leave.
After Cain left, Mikael finally had a chance to ask his doubts.
"You lied to him. I don't have a hobby of collecting hell creature markers. To be precise, I don't even know what that is." He said seriously, if possible, he would like to instill a little more concept of integrity into his friend.
"Ah! I was about to explain this to you," Ray said, smiling. "Of course I did it for you!"
Mikael was slightly taken aback.Lying was not a good thing, but hearing the explanation was strangely pleasant to him.
"First of all, I have to tell you what the mark is." Lei began to chatter, "Every hell creature has its own unique mark. This mark is in our soul and sometimes on our body. We It is our secret to know what our mark is when we are born, and it is also a contract between us and hell."
"Is there a contract between you and hell?" Mikael found this concept very novel.
"Yes, every hell creature has one. Hell recognizes who belongs to it by marks. It gives benefits to those who belong to it, while expelling those who do not belong to it. So as long as the person who carries the mark is in hell, he On the contrary, people without the mark of hell will not be able to replenish their magic power, and they will need to pay double the magic power to release any magic. This is the role of the mark. There should be a similar contract in heaven, and every angel's soul There must be marks left by heaven."
"There is no such mark in my soul." Mikael frowned and said, "At least not in my cognition."
"That's because you don't know enough about your soul." Lei smiled, "Maybe an angel who is proficient in souls will know the truth."
Mikael pondered for a while: "Archangel Sariel, he is the angel in charge of the soul sea, if there is a mark, he will know."
"You can ask him if you have a chance." Lei shrugged, and Sariel made his scalp tingle.
"But I didn't feel any discomfort after I arrived in hell. To be precise..." Mikael frowned, "I think my magic power is recovering quickly, and it's still growing."
"You're special." Ray said, narrowing his eyes.
"I don't see what's special about me."
"You will know, you are the most special one." Lei quickly changed the topic, "Anyway, the power of angels will be consumed quickly in hell, and they cannot stay in hell for too long, even the strongest Angels cannot stay in hell for more than seven days."
Mikael nodded: "No wonder, the Angel Legion has never captured hell."
"They don't want to capture hell, they just want to trap us here." Lai paused and said, "Let the evil stay in the evil place, this is the purpose of the Creator God. But the creatures of hell try to get there Other places, such as the above-ground world that the Creator God regards as a testing ground."
Mikael wants to refute that the duty of the angels is to guide those lost lambs in the surface world to the right path, and the God of Creation has never done any experiments with the surface world.
"Listen to me first." Lei stopped Mikael with gestures, "The method we thought of was summoning. Originally, as long as the difference in strength exceeds two levels, a powerful summoner can use the mark to make the summoned appear in their own front. The only exception is when the real name
Three or ten minutes later, the trainee angel appeared with two freshly baked black wings on his back, and he turned around awkwardly, as if his body was no longer his own.
"Well, not bad, so even if your hair is still golden, no one will doubt that you are an angel." Lei put away the hair dyeing tools.Infernal creatures are not good at material magic, but they can use various herbs to achieve the same effect.
"This kind of dye is waterproof and heat-resistant. It should be used every six months. If it is advanced, it must be used immediately, because you will grow new wings. The current market price is a third-level medium gemstone, and I only charge you a third-level gem." Wait for the gemstone to be ready."
"Okay." Mikael nodded, he knew that in places other than heaven, items need to be obtained through exchange, "But I don't have gems on me, can you accept other things? I only have this sword now, I don't know how many gems it's worth."
"Then give it back to me later! You need this sword to fight." Lei said generously.The price he offered was at least ten times higher than the price of hair dyes on the market. Of course, it was impossible for the trainee angel to know about this, and even if he knew, he would not have the sense of bargaining. "I should have given you another set of uniforms for trainee fallen angels, but your figure doesn't seem suitable, so I have to wear ordinary swordsman uniforms for the time being."
The design of the trainee fallen angel uniform is bold and explicit, entirely to set off the slender figure of the young man. The fabric of the whole uniform is pitifully small, which is not suitable for Mikael, who is well-proportioned and slender.
"I think the wings are a bit sticky." Mikael said with a frown.
"Don't worry, this dye won't harm the feathers. Maybe it's not dry yet, you can try blowing it out."
"Well, okay, I'll get used to it as soon as possible." Mikael spread his wings and pointed them in the direction of the wind, "Where are we going?"
"To the south, there should be a small market in the south, where we can confirm the direction of the nearest city and earn some travel expenses by the way."
"Let's go then!"
In this way, the angel and the devil embarked on a journey, both of them thought it would be a good start...
☆、Fried small balls
The small bazaar that was supposed to arrive soon did not appear on the horizon until three days later.Mikael was acutely aware of his new friend's slight road-crazy tendencies, and after he took the initiative to take over the map and compass, they finally stopped wandering around and returned to the right direction.
"We're here!" Ray whistled happily.
"If we don't go north first, then go east all the way, and then go northwest for a whole day, we should have arrived here two and a half days ago." Sitting behind Lei, Mikael held the rein and said solemnly Tell the truth.
The hump of the dromedary forces two people who decide to share a ride to stick together.At first Mikael was not used to such close contact, he only held the hands of other apprentice angels when he was very young, and he still remembers that wonderful feeling.After growing into an outstanding trainee angel, he has been enjoying "glorious isolation" because he is too good. This is the first time that this kind of situation with other people's chest and back has happened.
However, although angels have wings, they are not suitable for long-distance flight. Riding a dromedary is much easier than walking.After traveling with Ray for a few days, Mikael got used to it a little bit.Ray's shoulders were slightly narrower than his, but he was about half a head taller.Although the line of sight was half blocked by the black head, Mikael felt extremely at ease.
Strange, could it be that he actually likes physical contact?Just never had a chance before?
Mikael put the reins in one hand, freeing the other to wrap around Ray's waist.This was not his illusion, the physical contact with Lei did bring him a strange sense of comfort, not only physically, but even the magic power in his body fluctuated slightly.
"What's wrong?" Ray turned his head, because of Mikael's behavior, his expression was stiff.
"I seem to like the feeling of hugging you." Although Mikael was puzzled, he answered very frankly.
This is the first time he has a particular liking for something.
Could it be that the reason why I can't forget the trainee angel who slept in the bed next to her when she was a child and once went to the bathroom hand in hand is because of this reason?
The young angel's hand is very easy to pinch, the flesh is almost hard to touch the bones, and the skin is as delicate as fruit. Mikael really doesn't want to let go after going to the toilet.
What's the name of that trainee angel?It seems that I haven't seen it since I started learning swordsmanship?
Mikael did not let go of Lei's waist when he was distracted, which made Lei's face completely dark.
"You! Say! What! What? Can you repeat it again?!"
The magic pressure released by Lei made the dromedary almost want to lie on the ground, but unfortunately it had no effect on the trainee angel.As his mood fluctuated, a dark cloud quickly gathered in the sky, blue lightning passed through the cloud, and a thunderstorm was about to come.
"I said that I seem to like the feeling of hugging you very much. No, it's too early to draw a conclusion. I'd better try a few more people before talking!" Mikael said seriously.
He felt that if it turned out that he really liked being in close contact with people so much, he might as well apply to be a Thanksgiving Angel after completing the trial.Thanksgiving angels often give blessings to believers in the form of hugs, while combat angels do not have so many opportunities to hug people.
"You mean, you have to try a few more people to confirm the feel before you can confirm whether you like to hold me?" The words that came out from between the teeth were extremely cold, but it's a pity that the trainee angel is learning about people's faces. The evaluation on the Internet has always been F, but fortunately, Heaven does not evaluate this course.
"Well, yes. Let's go, it seems to be raining." Mikael looked at the dark clouds that were getting thicker and thicker in the sky, and felt the rapid change of the climate in hell. A few minutes is enough to brew a storm .
"Hehe..." The hell traveler suddenly put away the magic pressure and showed a warm smile, as if the person who just tortured the apprentice angel to death a hundred times in the fantasy world was not him at all. "Don't worry, today will be a good day." He said with a smile.
Thundercloud, which had lost its magical support, was like a hunting dog eager to catch up to its own tail. It quickly circled a few times in the sky and disappeared invisible.
"Huh?!" Mikael was so surprised that he even let go of Lei's arms.He looked Lei up and down, and he knew that contrary to angels, hell creatures are mostly proficient in spiritual magic, and some of them can even make predictions. Lei's ability to predict weather is obviously a similar talent.
What a useful talent!
"Let's go!" Mikael smiled and patted the dromedary's hump.
"I remembered, we can't just go in like this!" Ray said suddenly.
"what happened?"
"In hell it's considered bad manners not to wear a hat," Ray said solemnly.
Mikael looked at Lei, Lei's brown cloak was attached to a hat, while his swordsman uniform did not have a matching hat.
"Sorry." Mikael apologized for his rude behavior for several days, "I don't have a hat."
"I can lend it to you!" Lei kindly took out a green wide-brimmed hat from the space props, with a few half-bald red feathers stuck on the top of the hat.
The corner of Mikael's mouth twitched, he felt that the hat and the clown boots on Lei's feet had deeply provoked his aesthetic sense.But who said he has no hat?
"Thank you." Mikael grabbed a lizard from the hat and put the hat on his head.
"A Tier [-] medium gem, thank you for your patronage."
"I'm just borrowing."
"This is the price of the giant dragon lizard that you let go just now."
The trainee angel glanced at the direction in which the lizard was fleeing, and the creature with a bullish name had indeed disappeared.He had to accept his fate: "Okay, put it on my account!" Keeping an account when buying things is one of the new skills he learned in hell. Other skills are about how to find forage, how to distinguish salt and sugar, and how to read. Hell universal text.
After 10 minutes, they finally stepped into the destination.
"Everyone around me seems to be looking at me?" The trainee angel kept a serious face and communicated with his companion in a low voice.
"This is normal. This is the territory of the demon king Bryce, and not many fallen angels have the guts to come here."
"Uh……"
Mikael found that most of the people in the market had gloomy faces, and many of them directly covered their faces under their collars or hats.This is indeed very similar to the description of demons in the book—insidious, cunning, hiding their heads and revealing their tails, and they can fly with the fleshy wings on their backs at critical moments.
"Will they attack me?"
The trainee angel was on guard secretly, ashamed that he once thought there was harmony between fallen angels and demons in hell.If it weren't for Lei being by his side, he would never be able to complete the arduous task of influencing the ultimate devil king alone!
"No, very few people will take the initiative to attack food merchants." Lei took out a red hat of the same style as Mikael's head from the space props (the feathers on it were green), and put it on his head up, and started yelling—
"Delicious snacks from the ancient East! Black dead bug-flavored deep-fried small balls, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, now you only need a small herb or a piece of gemstone to buy six! It is an excellent snack that has been praised by your son. Want to eat, each one has genuine black dead worm stuffing, six only need a small herb or a gem fragment! What are you waiting for? Don’t miss it when you pass by! Just a small herb or a gem fragment , experience the ultimate in dark cuisine, feel the hell on the tip of your tongue!"
Mikael was completely stunned.While he was dazed, Lei had already set up a small trolley, put a hot oil pan on it, and took out a large bucket of batter-like ingredients from the space props like a magic trick.
"The great opportunity to pay off the loan is just around the corner!" Lei turned his head and whispered to Mikael.
"what?"
"You're in charge of the croquettes, and I'm in charge of collecting the money."
"But I won't..."
Mikael stared dumbfounded at the demons rushing toward them like a tide. If he had been on the battlefield, he would have been torn to pieces.But even if he was not on the battlefield, he still doubted whether he could survive in front of this group of demons with shining eyes.
So I had to learn and sell now!
Mikael followed Lei's instructions and carefully fried every small ball stuffed with black dead bugs.He mechanically dug out two-thirds of the batter from the bucket, rubbed it in the palm of his hand three times, squeezed it slightly and threw it into the oil pan, then repeated this action six times, waited for 45 seconds, and then took out the small balls.
His hair was quickly greasy, his face was splattered with sweat and hot oil, his hands were covered in batter, and he had a large lump on his neck.The dirty samurai uniform and ugly green hat made the demons completely ignore the excellent looks of the apprentice angel.
In contrast, Ray maintained a perfect demeanor.Like a nimble fish, he took herbs and gems from one demon after another, and accurately calculated how many fried balls Mikael should give each other.When the crowd was too crowded, he even directed the demons to line up in a long line. The charm of food seemed to make the demons temporarily let go of their natural love for fighting.
The night was getting darker and thicker, and the guests finally gradually became rare.
Mikael took a moment to wipe his face with his sleeve. "How much do we make?" he asked a little eagerly.
"Together it is roughly equivalent to a third-tier inferior gemstone." Seeing Mikael's eyes light up slightly, Lei couldn't help but start hitting him, "Deduct the cost, and then deduct my share, the part you deserve Probably a second-tier inferior gem."
Mikael calculated that he would have to sell croquettes for another five days to pay off the loss caused by his accidentally letting go of the giant dragon lizard.As for paying off all the credit on his account, I'm afraid he still needs to find another way.But it's always good to pay off a little, and poor Apprentice Angel has been worrying about his debts since he came to hell.
"Are we still selling croquettes tomorrow?" Mikael asked seriously, not sure how many ingredients Ray still had.
Ray was immediately defeated by Mikael's expectant eyes.If Mikael hadn't done something that made him furious, he would never have thought of making such a harmless joke, asking Mikael to sell fried balls in the market.He thought that the current embarrassment would at least make Mikael feel frustrated, but he obviously underestimated the tolerance of his friend from heaven.
"No, let's find the most luxurious hotel and ask for the most comfortable room first, take a hot spring bath, and then have a good sleep." Lei took out a lace handkerchief and carefully wiped Mikael's face.
It was much more pleasing to the eye, and he regretted his previous decision.
"Don't rush to pay off the debt, it's rude," Ray said in a low voice.
Mikael felt that his magic power was fluctuating again. He looked at Lei's hand and tried hard to suppress the idea of asking Lei to wipe his face again. "Really? Didn't you lie to me that it's rude not to wear a hat?" he asked.
"This kind of hat is a symbol of the status of a gourmet merchant. There are only two kinds of fallen angels who can walk safely in the devil's territory, selling gourmet food or selling themselves as gourmet food." Lei smiled, "This is the most perfect cover. "
"Do you want to deal with these malicious demons first?" Mikael reminded in a low voice, his hand on the hilt of the sword.
☆, good and evil
The night in Hell was dry and cold. Most of the demons had gone to find a place to spend the night. The few demons who had been quietly lurking around seemed particularly conspicuous.
A tall and thin demon made a gesture, directing other malicious demons to gather around.
"It can be seen that your craftsmanship has brought you a lot of wealth." He said with a laugh.
Mikael recognized this devil, he had bought small fried balls from him at least three times today, and every time he took the balls, he would smile politely, just like his smile now.
"Look clearly, this is the true face of the devil." Ray whispered in Mikael's ear, "Sinister, cunning, and always evil."
His whisper was so malicious that Mikael couldn't help frowning.
"What beautiful fingers... so beautiful that people want to tear them off one by one, cut them open in the middle to dry, and make them into kitchen decorations." The tall and thin devil boasted in a flirtatious tone.
Mikael felt sick to his stomach, unable to understand the point of this pre-battle taunt.
Luckily the demons didn't keep him waiting too long.The money Mikael and Lei earned from selling fried balls made them jealous for a long time. Following the look of the tall and thin demon, the two demons took the lead in attacking from behind!
"careful!"
After warning Ray, Mikael ignored the attacker behind him.He rushed forward like a leopard, and his aura changed drastically.Without hesitation, Jianfeng pierced through a demon who hadn't had time to step forward, and the corpse was thrown in front of Lei as a shield.Mikael turned around quickly and cast a holy shock, causing all the demons around him to pause for a second.The sharp long sword took the opportunity to harvest two sinful lives. Mikael, who is known as the strongest apprentice angel in heaven, has never been a soft-hearted person when facing evil!
What the sword pointed at, wiped out all evil!
After solving the coveted demon, Mikael decisively let go of the tall and thin demon who was already alert, turned around and began to fight the two demons who attacked them from behind.The corpse he threw over at first had been hacked beyond recognition. Lei shrank behind the corpse, dodging left and right with funny postures, and gave the attacker a harmless electric shock from time to time.
Mikael thinks that Lei's strength should be more than that, but he doesn't intend to ask, he must take the responsibility of protecting his friends!
Mikael blessed himself with the holy armor, and received a heavy blow on the back, but it was not strong enough to break through the defense of the trainee angel.He took this opportunity to finish off one sneak attacker, and when he was about to kill the other, Ray blasted the demon into a pile of coke with a light wave.
Ray looked at his back with a displeased look on his face.Mikael didn't have time to think about it.
Now only the tall, thin demon is left, and he is the leader of the gang.
Mikael walked towards the last enemy step by step.After the battle just now, he felt that his strength had improved compared to before coming to hell.His body is extremely light, and his more powerful explosive power allows many skills to be displayed. His magic power has increased by about [-]%, and the magic power in his body is eager to try, clamoring for a big kill.
Mikael raised his long sword calmly!
"Wait a minute! Don't kill me, I have a good deal for you!" the tall, thin demon screamed.
Mikelton stopped, he suddenly remembered his debt.The tall and thin demon rolled his eyes and suddenly spread his wings to escape, but he was immediately knocked back to the ground by a lightning bolt.
"Don't rush away, let's talk about the good deal you said!" Lei walked in front of the half-burned demon, grinning and showing eight big white teeth. The unhappiness just now seemed to have disappeared.
"I... I have a mercenary letter from a nobleman, a real nobleman with his own badge! He wants to hire someone to escort him and his daughter back to his territory. All the rewards he gives are bright Glittering high-level gems! I am not with these people, I just want to take them to try their luck. Only those with mercenary certificates can participate in the assessment. The assessment is based on a group, and a group needs at least Three people. Once you pass the assessment, you can get one-third of the reward, and the remaining two-thirds can only be obtained after completing the escort task. Your skills are good, do you want to form a team with me to participate in the assessment? Really It's not that I wanted to rob you, I was just pushed out by them to talk." The tall and thin demon tried his best to show a sincere expression, and the impromptu robbery made him feel green with regret.
"That's it... But your mercenary status has been burned by me, right?" Lei shrugged, as if he didn't have much interest in this matter.
"No. It's..." The tall and thin demon raised his hand with difficulty.
"It's in your other pocket? Thanks for letting me know. To thank you, I'll chop more carefully this time."
Lei spread out his palms, and an electric arc flashed across the tall, thin demon, and then he lost his breath completely.Ray retrieved a carefully folded piece of paper from his pocket.
Mikael frowned: "I thought..."
"You think I'm going to negotiate a deal with him?" Ray laughed. "Demons are all cunning and unreliable. I bet only half of what he just said is true. We don't need to waste time on him. Since he told us If you do it, you should have the awareness of being robbed in reverse."
"I don't like it when you say that, you are also a devil." Mikael looked at Lei coldly.
"So you shouldn't trust me. I have lied to you many times, have you forgotten?" Lei tilted his head, looking indifferent.
"I believe my eyes." Mikael said after a few seconds of silence, "Whether it's a demon, a human, or an angel, no one is destined to be evil. I have no prejudice against demons, I only believe The truth I see with my eyes."
Lei's expression suddenly became a little complicated.
"Do you know?" He leaned closer to Mikael, "Someone told me this before. He said that the power of evil is more effective than the power of good when used in the right place. He believes that he has found the origin of the world, He believes that it is not the Creator God who maintains the world, but a more basic force that maintains the world. He calls it human nature. Whether it is human beings, angels, or demons, they all have human nature. Human nature promotes the birth of new life and promotes All things develop, which brings destruction and resurrection. He believes that neither angels nor demons can escape their essential humanity, so angels fall and villains repent at their deathbed. For this reason, he believes that all people are Equal. Open your heart, maybe the only king in hell is no different from passers-by on the ground, and there is no need to treat them differently."
Mikael opened his eyes slightly, surprised at this magical idea, and he felt as if he had caught some kind of vague inspiration.
"Who is he?" the trainee angel asked eagerly.
"It doesn't matter who he is." Lei pulled the corners of his lips, but there was not much smile on his face. "The important thing is that he died, and his theory was also wiped out."
Mikael: "..."
"Let's go! Don't waste the wonderful hours of the evening discussing such trivial matters."
Lei put away the trolley and walked forward with brisk steps, but Mikael felt that his friend was not in a happy mood.
"I'm sorry." Mikael hurried after Ray.
"what?"
"Your friend died. I'm sorry. But no one is immortal in this world. One day you or I will face death, but people's thoughts will not die because of death. I think he said very It makes sense, except that I don't think that the power of evil should be borrowed, even if it is used in the right place. I think evil can be influenced, but those who fail to be influenced must be eliminated." Mikael explained his thoughts seriously.
"You really don't know how to read people's mood." Lei turned his head and smiled bitterly at Mikael, "Don't you see that I don't want to talk about this issue? You can easily make me want to strangle you to death."
"I admit that I rarely think about other people's feelings, but that doesn't mean I don't notice yours. I can see that you are upset when talking about your friends, but I don't think running away is the solution. You should face the past more bravely."
"What do you think? What do you know?" Ray said sarcastically.
Mikael suddenly felt a little sad, but he didn't want to show it, and his usual serious face concealed it well.
"Well, I'll find a better time to talk about it," he said.
Yes, I don't know anything.
Ray must have been more upset than I was.
Mikael knew he should accept both conclusions.
"Are we still going to the hotel?" Mikael asked.
"Of course! I have to enjoy it! You need to change your clothes too." Ray narrowed his eyes.Mikael's swordsman's uniform was not only stained with the oil stains left by the croquettes, but also the demon that had just attacked him cut his back. Although his body was not injured because of the protection of the holy magic, his clothes were torn a bit. big hole.
It's a pity that this dress has only been worn for a short time and has to be changed.
Mikael's face stiffened again due to the increase in debt.
"Okay, let's take a shower and change clothes, and then discuss about the mercenary status." He said through gritted teeth.
The hell traveler quickly finds a luxury hotel with the trainee angel. Seeing the "huge" amount of accommodation expenses made Mikael terrified.Again he tried to instill in his friend that thrift is a virtue, but Ray laughed heartily.
"Don't worry! Our wallets will bulge up again after we're done guesting as mercenaries!"
"Is it very profitable to be a mercenary?" Mikael was a little puzzled, "That demon came to rob us even though he had the status of a mercenary."
"That's because he didn't have the confidence to be selected. Most of his mercenary certificates were obtained by fraud. A real nobleman would not be so blind when picking people. When we are successfully selected, we will have a chance to meet It's time for the nobles. Let's go and enjoy it! There is a hot spring in our room!"
On the way to the room, Mikael was still debating whether to accept such enjoyment, but after seeing the dense hot spring, he immediately took off his newborn baby state, and flew into the embrace of the spring water.
Heaven is always warm and humid, God knows how much he hates the dry, hot wind in hell!
"Aren't you coming down?" the trainee angel frankly invited his friend.
"Uh... not for the time being." Lei blinked his eyes and found a reasonable excuse for himself, "I want to deal with this lost bird first."
He unleashed a bolt of lightning with a wave of his hand, and a charred bird fell straight through the transom at the top of the room and into the hot spring pool.
☆, passing bird
Mikael watched the dark brown bird sink and float a few times in the hot spring pool, and he suddenly thought of those mechanical little ducks in the public baths in heaven.He never understood why there were ducks in the bath.
Then, when the bird sank again, what floated up was a dark-skinned boy!
"Cough...help! I can't swim! Cough cough...quick...help me! I'm not a bad person!"
So is this sentence a generic self-introduction from hell?
Mikael looked at the teenager struggling in the water.He looked like he was in his teens, with short purple hair and skin the color of chocolate mixed with milk.
"Help! The bird is drowning! Someone save me!!"
There are brown feathers growing between the teenager's arms and body, and it looks like his hands are also his wings.
Is this from the bird just now?
"This amount of water should not be able to submerge you." Mikael reminded while observing.The height of the hot spring pool has just reached Mikael's waist, and it is estimated that it can only reach the boy's shoulder at most.
"What are you talking about? Help... Huh? You really can't drown a bird!" The young man finally calmed down and looked around with wide-eyed eyes.His eyes were dark brown, with a circle of white eyeliner drawn around them, but at this moment, a small half of them had been dissolved by water.
"I'm not a bad bird, my name is Cain, I just passed by here." The boy introduced himself while trying to climb up to the edge of the hot spring with his wet wings, but unfortunately he failed several times.
Mikael lifted the boy from behind, pulled him ashore, then took the clothes from Lei, and dressed neatly again.
"By the way..." Cain glanced at Lei with lingering fear, "When I was passing by the market just now, I saw you guys killing those fellows who asked for trouble. At least three people can use that mercenary certificate." , Why don’t you take me with you! I can understand bird language and animal language, so I’ll be a good helper!”
"It turns out that you have been 'passing by' since so long ago." Lei dismissed Cain's lies lightly, and looked at Cain with his arms crossed, "It's not impossible to join, first you have to prove your worth. Do you know how to spy as a bird?"
"Scouting? I never do the drudgery of flying around! Ah no, I mean, if you can subdue a few birds, I can train them to be the best scouts." Cain flattered explain.
Mikael looked at Lei, seeking the latter's opinion with his eyes.If the mercenary status really needs three people, then Cain would be a good choice.The bird doesn't look very smart, and its strength is terrible.But Ray should be more experienced than him about how to choose a companion in hell.
"Give us your mark, or we won't talk about it." Lei said in a businessman's tone.
"Mark? That's as effective as a real name!" Cain loosened the old vest that he took off and twisted half way, and looked at Lei warily, "What do you want this for? Only the rank is two ranks higher than mine. To summon me with a sign, who are you?"
"Just out of interest." Ray pointed at Mikael. "My friend likes to collect the marks of hell creatures. He is fascinated by those graphics. We won't do anything with your marks, I promise. Besides, Do you think we have two levels of strength higher than yours?"
Cain glanced at Mikael suspiciously, and the trainee angel looked back at him expressionlessly.
"You... are not like nobles. Even if you are stronger than me, you are limited. Well, I will give you my mark!"
"Teach him to write." Ray raised his chin in Mikael's direction.
Cain hesitated, but eventually taught Mikael how to draw his mark.
"Don't try to summon me with a mark, even if you have enough strength. Both my real name and mark are protected by magic. Unless you find the right sacrifice, you will never be able to summon me." He warned in a whisper.
"It's so interesting, you've been domesticated." Lei looked at Cain with interest.
"I'm not domesticated! It's just that someone is willing to provide me with a little protection." The expression on Cain's face seemed a little unwilling, "Why are you talking so much? Can I join now?"
"Unfortunately, we are going to rest now. It is really tiring to sell fried small balls at the market." Ray yawned falsely, "Tomorrow morning, if we don't change our minds because of sleep, we will find You talked about it." He pointed to the direction of the door.
Cain looked very angry and wanted to argue, but finally swallowed his anger and chose to leave.
After Cain left, Mikael finally had a chance to ask his doubts.
"You lied to him. I don't have a hobby of collecting hell creature markers. To be precise, I don't even know what that is." He said seriously, if possible, he would like to instill a little more concept of integrity into his friend.
"Ah! I was about to explain this to you," Ray said, smiling. "Of course I did it for you!"
Mikael was slightly taken aback.Lying was not a good thing, but hearing the explanation was strangely pleasant to him.
"First of all, I have to tell you what the mark is." Lei began to chatter, "Every hell creature has its own unique mark. This mark is in our soul and sometimes on our body. We It is our secret to know what our mark is when we are born, and it is also a contract between us and hell."
"Is there a contract between you and hell?" Mikael found this concept very novel.
"Yes, every hell creature has one. Hell recognizes who belongs to it by marks. It gives benefits to those who belong to it, while expelling those who do not belong to it. So as long as the person who carries the mark is in hell, he On the contrary, people without the mark of hell will not be able to replenish their magic power, and they will need to pay double the magic power to release any magic. This is the role of the mark. There should be a similar contract in heaven, and every angel's soul There must be marks left by heaven."
"There is no such mark in my soul." Mikael frowned and said, "At least not in my cognition."
"That's because you don't know enough about your soul." Lei smiled, "Maybe an angel who is proficient in souls will know the truth."
Mikael pondered for a while: "Archangel Sariel, he is the angel in charge of the soul sea, if there is a mark, he will know."
"You can ask him if you have a chance." Lei shrugged, and Sariel made his scalp tingle.
"But I didn't feel any discomfort after I arrived in hell. To be precise..." Mikael frowned, "I think my magic power is recovering quickly, and it's still growing."
"You're special." Ray said, narrowing his eyes.
"I don't see what's special about me."
"You will know, you are the most special one." Lei quickly changed the topic, "Anyway, the power of angels will be consumed quickly in hell, and they cannot stay in hell for too long, even the strongest Angels cannot stay in hell for more than seven days."
Mikael nodded: "No wonder, the Angel Legion has never captured hell."
"They don't want to capture hell, they just want to trap us here." Lai paused and said, "Let the evil stay in the evil place, this is the purpose of the Creator God. But the creatures of hell try to get there Other places, such as the above-ground world that the Creator God regards as a testing ground."
Mikael wants to refute that the duty of the angels is to guide those lost lambs in the surface world to the right path, and the God of Creation has never done any experiments with the surface world.
"Listen to me first." Lei stopped Mikael with gestures, "The method we thought of was summoning. Originally, as long as the difference in strength exceeds two levels, a powerful summoner can use the mark to make the summoned appear in their own front. The only exception is when the real name
