Chapter 327

~15 min read 2,926 words

Although the feeling of seeing the final boss blocking the door right at the newbie village is very hard to handle, after surviving the initial panic, Dorothy quickly calmed down.

After all, she is not an average player. Senior Fan Ni, save me.

Although this future Fourth King is crazy and hasn't developed to her peak period yet, the Lord of Radiance on the opposite side has been sealed for over a hundred thousand years and is also heavily crippled. This pair of old, weak, sick, and disabled should be evenly matched if they really fight; neither can do anything to the other.

At the thought that she had a powerful backer to rely on and could act like a fox borrowing a tiger's might, Dorothy suddenly stopped panicking. While she began to contact Senior Fan Ni through the familiar contract, she lifted her hood and, without changing her expression...

Alright, she has no face right now.

In short, she looked at the Lord of Radiance opposite her without a hint of cowardice.

After confirming that she could contact Senior Fan Ni normally and could be pulled back at any time, and that her own dog life was truly not in danger, she had some questions she really wanted to ask the other party.

"Stop, Lord of Radiance, your business has been exposed."

She thought for a moment, then said this.

It was a pity that the Lord of Radiance opposite her had no intention of listening to her babble. The twelve-winged pure white angel's wings behind her gave a light tremor, and she had already arrived in front of Dorothy amidst her terror.

The Home Witch was so scared she almost released Senior Fan Ni on the spot, but fortunately, she quickly discovered that this powerful Angel King seemed to have no malice toward her.

This Lord of Radiance just flew around her a few times, looked her up and down, then shook her head and said with some disappointment.

"More than ten years ago, I suddenly sensed that I had an extra bloodline connection, and out of thin air, I gained a daughter. I thought you were that daughter of mine; now it seems you are not."

"However, you should know that daughter of mine, right? How is she doing?"

This terrifying Angel King, who had always acted as the final villain in witch history books or various operas and novels, did not look terrifying at all at this moment. She even smiled quite kindly at Dorothy and asked this.

The other party's appearance, which was like what Sophie Liya would look like after fully maturing, made Dorothy slightly dazed. Fortunately, her resistance to beauty was the highest, and she quickly sobered up.

"Um, she's doing quite well. She can eat and sleep. Aside from being a bit self-destructive and wanting to court death, everything else is pretty good."

Dorothy thought for a moment and answered like this.

"Is that so."

The Lord of Radiance nodded, becoming interested.

She waved her hand, and suddenly the temple space that originally belonged to the Vice President changed. It turned from a church into a sky garden above the clouds, and in the center of the garden was a gazebo like a golden birdcage. Inside the gazebo was a tea table, and the table was filled with all kinds of delicious desserts and hot tea.

"Come over, child, let's have a cup of tea together, and by the way, tell me about my daughter."

This noble and mature mature-woman angel big sister suddenly appeared beside the tea table and beckoned to her kindly, looking just like a mother greeting a classmate of her daughter who had come over to play.

"Um, right, I almost forgot to ask, child, what is your name again."

The Lord of Radiance asked with a smile.

"Dorothy."

The Home Witch hesitated slightly, then still spoke her true name.

Although it is quite dangerous for such a big shot to know one's name, she figured that if such a big shot really wanted to make a move on her, she probably wouldn't need such small tricks.

She was not afraid, but obediently walked to the tea table in the birdcage, sat down, and looked curiously at the delicacies on the table that seemed to be specialties of Heaven.

"Hmm, good name, a gift from the gods. Child, you are indeed worthy of such a name."

The Lord of Radiance clapped her hands and praised her like this.

"Then as an exchange, I will tell you my name too. Gabriel, you can call me Sister Gabriel."

Dorothy picked up the tea in front of her—she didn't know what it should be called—and took a light sip. The tea fragrance filling her mouth made her marvel. Especially after a mouthful of tea went down, her spirit felt as if it had been purified, and her whole person became exceptionally relaxed.

She picked up another cute, seven-colored pastry similar to a macaron and took a bite; a wonderful experience as if she had ascended to heaven made her enjoy it very much.

And hearing the self-introduction of this Lord of Radiance opposite her, she nodded obediently.

"Okay, Auntie Gabriel."

Well, after all, the other party is her roommate's paternal mother, so Dorothy felt that calling the other party "sister" was really inappropriate.

"I said, call me sister."

It was just that the Lord of Radiance opposite her corrected her like this. Dorothy looked up, wanting to explain, but as soon as she saw the smiling face of this mature-woman version of Sophie Liya's angel big sister, along with eyes that didn't carry a single hint of a smile, she shivered and immediately changed her address with a well-behaved posture.

"Okay, sister, no problem, sister."

Dorothy suddenly realized who the Fallen Angel Lucifer's personality came from.

"So obedient, sister likes good children like you."

As soon as she heard the Home Witch change her address, only then did a smile appear in the Lord of Radiance's eyes. This Angel King's smile was very sweet; when she smiled, those eyes would curve into beautiful crescents, sweetening into one's heart.

This couldn't help but make Dorothy think of her roommate again. It was just a pity that Sophie Liya usually kept a straight face, and even if she smiled in business mode, that smile looked fake at a glance. But thinking about it, if the Pure White Witch were to show a smile from the bottom of her heart, it should also look like this.

"Alright, Dorothy, tell me about my daughter. This is my first time having a child; this feeling is quite novel."

The Angel King said with a somewhat complex expression. She clearly hadn't even been married yet, but she had a child first; this feeling was indeed quite strange.

True angels are faith-based creatures born from the source of faith in Heaven, just like elemental spirits born from nature.

And faith has no gender division, so angels actually have no gender. They can transform into men, and they can also act in the image of women.

Of course, an angel can have one opportunity to solidify their gender after becoming an adult and independent, from then on completely setting their gender.

It's just that most angels don't care about this. Only a very small number of angels who encounter love will choose to completely solidify their gender for their lover.

And as a powerful Angel King, Gabriel had always presented herself in the past as a more majestic male image. Such a powerful angel as Him naturally couldn't possibly believe in any damn love. As the First Angel Commander who once commanded all the angels of Heaven, He was dedicated to his career, working hard every day to make Heaven more prosperous and beautiful. Those useless emotions and such would only hinder His work efficiency.

Just like His title—Left of the Throne—He was the person closest to the Throne of God. In the past, over a hundred thousand years ago, in the era before witches had appeared, Gabriel was the greatest existence in the entire Western Universe closest to the Divine Realm.

Compared to pursuing meaningful things like the Divine Realm, those boring emotions were not worth mentioning in Gabriel's eyes. Only work and only cultivation could make Him feel the meaning of life.

And then...

And then there was no "then," because that woman appeared.

Gabriel, who was in charge of the Laws of Fate, only vaguely felt that a disaster unfavorable to Heaven was brewing in a certain small world. Naturally, she immediately descended an avatar to suppress and destroy that newborn small world.

This should have been an easy and simple task, yet an accident occurred.

Everything after that is common knowledge. The Witch race was born from then on. The God King led the Witch race to grow at a terrifying speed that shocked the entire Western Universe—neither scientific nor magical. Along the way, she killed gods who blocked her, slaughtered demons who blocked her, and staged a counterattack all the way, directly overturning Gabriel herself.

It was just that because Gabriel was too powerful, even the God King could not kill Him, and in the end, could only seal Him.

And while in the seal, Gabriel, who had worked overtime for Heaven for a lifetime, had nothing to do and was almost driven crazy by boredom. She had no choice but to start thinking about those various emotions that she had previously regarded as obstacles, not for anything else, but just to pass the time.

Incidentally, Gabriel also solidified her gender. It was not the male image He used in the past, but female. After all, the undefeated Left of the Throne had died; what was alive now was only the witch's prisoner, a failure named Gabriel.

Um, also because that Witch God King who defeated her seemed to like women. As the God King's captive, Gabriel had quite the self-awareness of being a trophy.

Even if it was the God King who caused her to lose everything, she, who had blocked her emotions in the past, would not hate the God King because of this. On the contrary, she quite admired the God King. She recognized the God King who had defeated her fair and square as a powerhouse who surpassed her, and even willingly handed over the ruling power of Heaven to the other party before being sealed, vowing that from then on, she was willing to assist the God King with all her heart and help her pursue that Divine Throne.

It was just a pity that that God King was still influenced by emotions. Just because she had once tried to destroy the Witch World, she sealed her for over a hundred thousand years.

Of course, for Gabriel, over a hundred thousand years actually didn't count as that long. After all, this amount of time wasn't even a fraction of the real age of this oldest angel, who was almost as long-lived as Heaven.

For these hundred thousand years, she had been thinking about a question, which was why the God King was so powerful. After thinking about it in the end, the final conclusion she reached was only one, which was that the biggest difference between the God King and her was that the God King possessed emotions.

And because of this, for so many years, she had been searching for and awakening those emotions that had long been forgotten by her from her long memories, bit by bit.

It was just that how could a person who had long since almost completely forgotten emotions easily re-understand what emotions were? Moreover, emotions were not something that she, who was sealed, could figure out by thinking hard alone.

Until more than ten years ago, a descendant of the God King came to her sealing altar and tried to pull out the sword that the God King had left behind back then.

That young witch was very talented, almost as excellent and powerful as the God King in Gabriel's memory when she was young. It was just a pity that the Lord of Radiance saw at a glance that this young witch's path had gone astray.

Because this witch was walking her old path of abandoning emotions and love, and she had already proven with her own experience that this path was a dead end.

Gabriel found it quite hard to understand. This descendant of the God King clearly had her ancestor's experience to refer to; why did she not learn the good things but instead walked on the path of her, a failure?

Therefore, the Lord of Radiance kindly spoke up to remind that young witch, telling her that her path had gone astray. The reason the God King was powerful lay in her emotions, in her heart, and in her perspective.

While in the seal, the Lord of Radiance had witnessed everything the God King did with her own eyes. Originally, she had thought that since the God King didn't accept her allegiance, she might also destroy Heaven, but the facts proved that her own perspective was too small. The God King eventually took over the ruling power of Heaven and led Heaven and the Witch World together to a new peak with impartiality.

Even the God King, after stepping down as the Witch King, also stepped down from the position of Lord of Heaven and returned Heaven to the angels.

With such a perspective, Gabriel asked herself that she could not do it. After all, she had discarded emotions and only had the reason left to seek the gospel for Heaven. In her mind, all factors unfavorable to Heaven should be erased. If she had won that battle back then, she probably would have destroyed the Witch World without hesitation.

And this also made the Lord of Radiance realize even more that true power might be hidden within those emotions she had discarded.

It was a pity that her kind reminder was completely ignored by that young witch who had taken the wrong path, and she even felt that she was mocking and insulting her. This left Gabriel very speechless.

And afterwards, that young witch even came over and tried to torture her sealed body, which made the Lord of Radiance shake her head and sigh even more.

After all, since this witch clearly couldn't even endure this little thing, then she was even less capable of walking the path of abandoning emotions and love.

Having talent but being weak in character—she won't achieve anything great.

This was Gabriel's evaluation of that young witch, and after that, she couldn't be bothered to look at the other party much.

It was just that she herself never expected that not long after this young witch disappeared, Gabriel, who was still working hard to find her lost emotions, suddenly felt a call of bloodline. At that moment, she naturally knew that her bloodline had been passed on, and she had gained a daughter.

And this discovery also caused her emotions, which were originally difficult to pursue, to palpitate suddenly. A long-lost feeling swept through her heart.

The great Lord of Radiance had found back the emotions she had lost.

Therefore, for this daughter who came inexplicably, Gabriel was very grateful and also cared quite a bit. It was just a pity that she, who was still sealed, couldn't even see that daughter.

And it was precisely because of this that she, who originally didn't really care about being sealed, began to break free from the seal. She just wanted to go out and see what this daughter looked like and whether she was doing well.

And coincidentally, just as she was feeling sleepy, someone brought a pillow. Although she didn't know what had happened outside recently, it seemed that a group of angel witches were trying to use her sealed power.

Regarding this, Gabriel simply went along with the plan. She generously shared her power with those foolish people who had betrayed the glory of the God King.

These descendants of the God King were truly too outrageous; they didn't even understand the simple truth that everything in fate is already marked with a price.

It looked like that group of angel witches was using her to gain power, but in fact, she was using that group of idiots to break free from the seal.

It was just that today, what made Gabriel somewhat surprised was that her conspiracy seemed to have been discovered by someone, and this person had the scent of her power of fate on her body.

At that moment, Gabriel was ecstatic. She thought she was lucky enough to have met her daughter.

It was a pity that when she wasted a portion of the power she had finally managed to re-accumulate to project her consciousness over, what she saw was not the daughter she had imagined, but a witch stained with her daughter's scent.

Tsk...

Heaven knows how hard Gabriel tried to suppress the murderous intent that inexplicably surged in her heart when she saw this bastard witch wearing her daughter's Oath Ring on her head.

She hadn't even seen her own cabbage yet, so how had it already been arched by a pig? She could not accept this kind of thing; absolutely not.

Um, first ask for news about her daughter, then beat this bastard witch up hard.

Gabriel decided this in her heart.

... Lord of Radiance is in a rage...
