Chapter 315: Aruliel’s Turning Point
—–
Aruliel knew what friendship was when she met him and his friends, his allies, and her new friends as well.
Even when she was born in Heaven, she never knew what love and companionship ever was, and the only thing she ever knew was despair, sorrow, and frustration.
It could be said that even though she was in the brightest place in the Universe, the only thing she saw in there was darkness.
However, when she woke up in this trash-filled world filled with a dark atmosphere and surrounded by creepy and eerie-looking people, was when she finally met the light… and found a reason to live other than just because it was her duty to be an angel… and fight to the death for God.
There was a new reason behind her actions, a new reason to keep looking forward, something else ahead of her path than just despair… something deeper and more motivational than just being the knight of God, a god that never spoke to her…
Perhaps by having these thoughts, she finally realized something…
She realized why people like Lucifer would betray God, or the other archdemons.
They were sick of a man that gave nothing in exchange for asking for everything.
And because they tried to go against him, they ended being sealed…
Wasn’t that unfair?
By having these thoughts, deep within her, she ended turning completely into a Fallen Angel now.
Embracing the darkness of her own self actually made her mind grow lighter, as the emotions of her beloved friends began to surge through her mind.
Even though it has only been almost a year since she met them, they had shared many things together… and she wanted to keep sharing more things.
She wanted to keep experience new things, to met new people, and to look forward into a future where she could smile.
And there wasn’t such a future where Chaos and his family wouldn’t be there.
“That’s right… I am not alone…” she murmured to herself.
As the darkness consumed her completely, a perpetual stagnation emerged within her mindscape, the fragments completely devoured her.
“It is useless, you’ve already been assimilated!”
“Now, this entire body, the vessel of an Angel itself, is ours!”
“With this power, we can surely defeat that bastard and retrieve the other fragments…!”
“After that, we’ll escape this stupid frog, and seek our other fragments while consuming everything we can find!”
“Our revenge will one day come, all of you angels will pay!”
“Gyahahahaha!”
“Hahahahah!”
“Aahaha- Eh?”
FLASH!
The fragments of the Forbidden One suddenly were greeted by a flash of bright white light.
This was the purest light within Aruliel, coming from the depths of her soul, where her Angelic Core was located.
While Demons had Demonic Cores to gather Demonic Energy, Angels had Angelic Cores where their Holy Energy gathered. Much like demons, this powerful energy belonged exclusively to pure angels like Aruliel, and it had incredible power when used by the right hands!
It was also the essential ingredient to utilize Heaven Magic!
“No…!”
“T-This is… impossible! No!”
“We completely consumed you! How can you resurface now?”
“I was never gone… I must help Chaos… I must help my friend…! The first person that showed me what actual bonds were all about!” cried Aruliel.
FLAAAAAASSSSHHH!
Her chest suddenly shone brightly, as a flashing light came out, illuminating the darkness and making the fragments of the Forbidden one groan in agony as their darkness began to dissipate!
“Uuaaggh…!”
“W-What the…?!”
“Y-You’re recovering part of your original power?!”
The Forbidden One’s fragments cried in utter shock!
Within her Mindscape, Aruliel’s figure was flashing with bright light, as her entire body became the embodiment of holiness!
Her power was surging more and more, as her Holy Energy was encompassing the darkness, while the darkness of the Fragments of the Forbidden One were relentlessly trying to fight against her!
They cannot let her get away with this! This wasn’t supposed to be this way!
“I always had it within me… I just had to bring it out… It will be painful though…!” muttered Aruliel.
FLASH!
Aruliel brought even more of her power out, as the light began to consume the darkness, the groans of agony of the Forbidden One Fragments resonated around her Mindscape, as their power over her body and mind began to slowly falter!
They were weakening!
But the will of the Forbidden One’s Ego was strong, he had already influenced Aruliel, and was doing it right now as she struggled to fight back!
The darkness that made up the wills of the Forbidden One’s Fragments was strong too, they all began to gang on Aruliel’s light, trying to devour her once more.
“We already assimilated you once!”
“It won’t be hard to do it again!”
“Don’t get cocky, you failure of an angel!”
“Failure?!” asked Aruliel angrily.
“Yes! We saw your pathetic memories!”
“You’ve been nothing but a failure your entire life, do you think that because you met a few stupid monsters that are nice to you, it means you’ve become somewhat better?!”
“Don’t make us laugh!”
“Once a loser, always a pathetic loser!”
“You cannot possibly think you can defeat ME! I was the King of the Outer Gods!”
“The Devourer of Galaxies, I was-“
“Shut the fuck already.”
Suddenly, Aruliel’s voice changed in tone from her usual childish tone!
“W-Wha…?!”
Even the Forbidden One’s fragments were shocked!
Aruliel… was she changing more than they originally thought?!
But simply remembering her good memories shouldn’t really made her change her mind to the point of changing her personality itself… right?
Then what… is happening?
Something within her was forming.
It was Aruliel, but at the same time, not her.
Her appearance changed, turning completely black, her eyes shone brightly red, and her horns grew larger.
This didn’t made sense because this form only emerged when the fragments took over her own body…
But they felt like they had no control over her anymore!
“I am going to go help my friend Chaos no matter what… You’re all a nuisance, shut up.” She said domineeringly.
