Being in midair, Roy was naturally the first to feel that holy aura. His body quivered, seeming to be struck by lightning, warning him instinctively.
Natural enemy! Extremely dangerous!
Roy turned to flee. But unfortunately, he was already enveloped by this pressure, and even the flapping of his wings had stiffened.
Finally, Roy fell back to Dracula’s castle with anxiety, wanting to get behind its walls.
However, the golden teleportation formation was fully operational, and a huge light and shadow appeared in the sky.
Everyone in the town of Transylvania, be it men, women, the old, the young, the rich, or the poor, was already kneeling on the ground. They shouted the names of the Holy Father and Son as they gazed at the light and shadow in the sky fanatically.
It was an archangel in a white battle robe with numerous red streamers and lily patterns embroidered with golden silk threads, looking very dignified and magnificent. It had a cloak on its head, covering its entire face, and no one could see it clearly. They could only see a dark mass, making it impossible to tell if it was male or female. The wide battle robe covered its figure all the way to its legs, and only its bare feet were visible.
Behind it were six seraph wings made of golden flames. They were flapping slowly, and the wingspan of hundreds of meters gave them a feeling of covering the sky. It held a longsword in the shape of a cross, and the entire sword was blazing with flames, exuding infinite might!
The moment it appeared, Roy was struck dumb. Sh*t, is it really Gabriel himself?!
Roy suddenly thought of Spider Queen Araniya in the Abyss. Back then, Araniya had chased him down after he snatched quite a number of her soul fragments. He only took a super-duper tiny piece of Gabriel’s soul fragment, but it actually caused Gabriel himself to take the initiative to expend a massive amount of energy to travel to this world and track him down.
I’m only a low-rank demon. Isn’t it too cruel for you to be so aggressive, big shot?!
Roy had not tried splitting his soul before, so how would he understand the importance of soul fragments to your body? Especially an archangel like Gabriel, he had millions of soul fragments, and these soul fragments were scattered in countless worlds to form incarnations. Every soul fragment was an object the demons coveted, so where would Gabriel’s face go if the demons snatched them one by one?
Therefore, even a very small piece of soul fragment could not be lost. He had to punish those who dared lay their hands on his soul fragments!
Roy could no longer move his body because Gabriel was locking onto it. Gabriel did not even bother to say anything when he realized that the one who had snatched his soul fragment was merely a low-rank demon. He pointed his sword of flames at Roy from afar!
Under the starry sky, an enormous cross-shaped sword of light appeared and fell like a meteor at the entire castle!
Roy would not have thought that grabbing a soul fragment would lead to such a horrible consequence. He was now hanging by his life! Seeing the sword of light approaching, he could not help but feel desperate. The difference between his strength and Gabriel’s was simply too great. He would probably disintegrate into dust even with the protection of the Ouroborus Mark...
Everyone watching this scene would not doubt it in the slightest. However, just when Roy felt like he was about to die, a black soul glowing with light floated up beside Roy!
Roy had yet to react to the appearance of the soul before the familiar repulsive force of the world appeared on him again.
A flash of light went through Roy’s brain, and he immediately understood what was going on, so he decisively chose to stop resisting the power of the world.
A dark vortex appeared at Roy’s feet and quickly surrounded his entire body before Gabriel’s sword of light landed. Then a powerful suction came and pulled Roy and that dark soul together into it...
“No!!!”
This sudden scene exceeded Gabriel’s expectations. He did not expect that the Gate of the Abyss would open when he had locked onto Roy and pull that low-rank demon back into the Abyss!
All of this was too coincidental, so coincidental that it was unbelievable!
However, this was the truth. In Dracula’s castle, Lucius had taken his last breath the moment Gabriel summoned the sword of light.
Roy had brought him to Dracula’s castle because he planned to borrow the hands of Dracula or Van Helsing to kill Lucius so that he could no longer fulfill the contract. At that time, he harbored no hope for Anna’s soul, so Lucius’s fallen soul was the most important to him.
When Dracula was sent flying, hundreds of kilograms landed on Lucius, causing his rib to pierce his lungs. Van Helsing had no intention of saving him, so Lucius died through continuous blood loss!
Roy had planned all of this. However, what he did not expect was for Gabriel to appear. Ironically, the one who caused Lucius’s slow death was saved by Lucius at this critical moment!
The sword of light fell onto Dracula’s castle. Dracula was dead already, but his three brides and vampire servants were still in the castle. These undead creatures screamed in pain and turned into dust the moment the sword of light exploded!
If the Gate of the Abyss had opened any slower, Roy would have probably met with the same fate...
Gabriel was not happy at all, even though he had extinguished the evil vampires. He could feel his own soul fragment being brought into the Abyss, completely disconnecting from him.
With his strength, Gabriel could enter the Abyss and retrieve his soul fragment. However, he could not do that. Not only would an angel need to pay an immense price to enter the Demon World, but it might also lead to the rulers of the Abyss, the demon kings, to retaliate. Gabriel had to consider the consequences.
Therefore, even though he was unwilling, Gabriel could only let it be. He snorted as his body slowly disappeared.
Damn demon, I remember your aura. Don’t let me find you in other worlds...
The golden magic formation disappeared, and the Gate of Heaven closed with Gabriel’s return. The people of Transylvania stared dreamily at the dark night sky. They did not understand what just happened, but they had seen Gabriel attack and destroy Dracula’s castle.
When they realized that the shadow of the vampires hanging over their heads had vanished, the people of the town embraced each other and wept with joy.
The black mist dissipated, and Roy’s body appeared on the magic formation of the altar. After seeing the familiar scene around him, Roy realized that he really came back.
He touched himself all over and found himself intact. Even Roy himself was dumbfounded.
“I actually... escaped from Gabriel?!”
Although he felt very fortunate, Roy could still feel the lingering fear in his heart. He never thought that Gabriel’s true body would descend. It was as though a novice had stepped out of the beginner village only to find himself up against a level 999 world boss. It was all too exciting...
