章 26: Serafina
The door opened and a very beautiful angel in white robes, black hair and calm blue eyes entered the room, followed by a nun with golden hair and blue eyes, "Sorry for the delay, we were a little lost", said the angel leaning on apologies and the nun repeating the same action.
"Mommy", upon hearing these words, everyone looked at Yan who was open-mouthed looking at the nun in front of him.
Yan's mother had been captured by vampires when he was four years old and to this day there has been no news of her being alive, even though Serafall used her connections created over her years of working as an underworld ambassador to investigate, but here she was at something impossible was happening in front of her, Yan calling a stranger her mother. Since the nun has many distinctions from the images she posted on social networks or her ID card, almost golden blonde hair unlike Aura, Yan's mother, who had black hair, in addition to being an ordinary human with no connection to the church or supernatural known before meeting Yan's father.
Before anyone could fully understand what was going on in Yan's mind to call a stranger a mother the seal of command released its seal and strengthened the body and summoned her armor shooting towards her nun without letting her react by putting a sword on Bakuya around her neck and with her right hand she took the woman's shoulder, which was swathed in streaks of blue light.
Having one surprise after another in less than a minute of meeting the boy, Serafina prepared to separate him from Griselda who had been surrendered with no chance of counterattacking, at least not without hurting the boy and consequently drawing the wrath of Serafall, however, before he could move a single muscle was stopped by Maou's words, "Don't interfere", giving a nod in response and stepping away from the two.
Griselda felt as if she were completely naked in front of the boy in front of her, if not for the brief preparation she had under Serafina's tutelage and the difference in age she would have long ago retaliated against this clear hostility the boy was releasing towards them. , but even within all that hatred in the depths of Yan's gaze on her, a small drop of hope could be seen.
Slowly the blue bands regressed and the atmosphere in the room began to improve when he noticed Yan dissipating his sword along with his physical strength and returned to his initial position, still in his armor, not saying anything. "So, could you please say what was the need to do this?", asked the angel, having the approval of everyone present, since his attitude had been very strange.
"I'd rather not tell strangers, but I thought through a bookcase that she was some kind of dark church experiment, until I confirmed the opposite", she replied looking into the eyes of Griselda who was no longer smiling and her hands were right on top of the Excalibur Mimic disguised as a gem, "I'd like to speak to you alone after this", he said in a serious tone, in which she looked to the angel for permission and was successful, "Okay" was all she said to the end the exchange.
"I prefer not to go into detail about your vision of the church now, but I can say that anywhere there will always be some rotten fruit," Serafina defended the church, which after God's death had been abandoned by Heaven because of fear of fall on.
"We're not here to talk about this right, you must be here because of my Sacred Gear Creator, right?", Yan looked directly into the eyes of the angel who didn't even blink at his words, however thanks to his mystical code strengthening the eye The fake mind was able to notice imperceptible things, a slight tachycardia, a brief dilation of her eyes, and an unnatural pause in her breathing, revealing that she hadn't expected the boy's direct approach.
Serafall frowned upon hearing about the name Sacred Gear Creator, as there is no record of anything like this existing in all of history, nor is it even among the thirteen Longinus, which unlike ordinary Sacred Gears have no copies and are unique in retaining the ability to slay gods and were named after the creation of True Longinus, who is said to have been blessed by the blood of Christ by being stabbed in the chest by a centurion named Longinus and having his name immortalized on the spear, being able to destroy the world in the wrong hands.
"What is the Sacred Gear Creator Yan?" Serafall asked trying to understand Heaven's interest, that despite her suggestive name there could still be more to be understood, "That's the name of my second Gear, Sacred Gear Creator, while True Longinus was the first one made, mine was used to create it, she and the others in the possession of humans" in no time as he spoke Yan took his eyes off Serafina assessing her reactions.
Serafina sighed, she was waiting for a probing meeting, where half-truths and false exchanges of information would be told and then a mutual trade agreement or maybe peace, but that's not what happened, "My job couldn't be easier just once ?" she said and sighed, "What you said is correct and at the same time wrong, the SGC is not just a tool to create other Gears, inside it is God's right hand where, metaphorically speaking, being the greatest blessing that he could give a mortal the power of Creation and the Miracle, this being his relaxation of faith in humanity before", Serafina looked at those present, Griselda, Serafall, Yan, Chloe and Koneko, before continuing her words, " Before his death, not ironic? Your name will be Yan". None of those present showed surprise, apart from Griselda, who didn't have high enough position within the church to know such information, Serafall as a Maou already knew about it, Yan learned from Chloe of God's death and Koneko didn't care, she was a demon and just thinking about the name of God gave her a headache. (Yan's name was based on Character Wu yan, Grand Shoujo Summoning, I just researched the meaning and it was funny kkkk)
"So I was sent by Michael-sama to investigate and bring something that shouldn't be in the hands of demons to its rightful place", Griselda's stupor was ignored, there were more important things than a little crisis, "So Yan, you could follow me to Heaven? Your home," Serafina showed Yan his right hand, hoping for a positive decision from him. Serafina faithfully believes in her creator, as one of the youngest created by him before his death, she doesn't have many memories of him, but she believes in his judgment and the SGC is not like the other Gears, in it is a direct part of his power and if Yan has been blessed, it is for being able to carry on the Father's legacy.
"No, I'm not going to let some little bitch take my Yan and take it to heaven, it must be one of the machinations of that busty bitch Gabriel who can't get a man and is running after a compromised person, like someone with that rotten mind still she didn't fall and let me kill her, yes that's it I'm going to kill Gabriel and all the angels together, then I'm going to take a vacation for a few years on some isolated island with my loves!" was what Serafall would like to say, however the situation she was too delicate to be carried away by emotions and she simply looked at Yan's face in anticipation that he would make the right decision, while clenching her fists and controlling her magic so as not to get out of control.
Chloe was the person who most understood Yan in this world and she already knew the answer he would give the angel and so she was calm and held Koneko's hand, who looked nervous as she looked at her master.
"I refuse", Serafina's face hardened as she heard Yan's reply who continued to speak, "My goal is to reach the top of the demons and become stronger than the Maou, being the ruler of the underworld and if I go with you to heaven it wouldn't be possible", Yan was filled with determination as he spoke of his dream, "I don't plan on starting war between the factions or anything like that, I received this power for some reason and I don't plan on hiding in the sky while I'm there. whatever is threatening the world stays on the loose," he said smiling brightly.
"I think the negotiations are over right?", Serafina stood up and was ready to leave the room when she heard something that made her return to her initial state, "you angels have difficulty reproducing right? And if, in exchange for a peace alliance, I make a Gear that will help you in this?".
"What kind of Gear?" asked the angel sitting down again, "How about something like demonic pieces to start with? Being able to turn demons into angels?", Yan's knowledge of evil pieces only loses to Ajuka Beelzebulb the creator of them and even with these limitations he was able to create very good variants. "Your offer is tempting, but I would have to talk to Michael-sama to analyze your offer", the spark of interest appeared in Serafina's eyes, it has been a few years since the Brave Angels project was made, but it had entered a phase of stagnation and an improvement was not anticipated for the next six or seven years, so Yan's help was invaluable.
The meeting lasted a little longer where terms were agreed where Yan would start production of the Sacred Gear for them, later it would be presented during a meeting where potentially a peace treaty between heaven and hell would be signed, of course it all depends on the terms discussed by Maous and Michael, in addition to the results of creating Gear.
"Yan Zollen on behalf of Heaven I thank you for your wisdom and I declare our temporary support for you." Serafina stood and bowed followed by Griselda who had come out of her catatonic state at some point during the meeting, "You don't need to do this , we intend to be allies and just a thank you was enough", replied the boy as he stood up.
"Yes, let's be allies, we'd better treat it a little less formally", Serafina's words were less rigid, something about Yan makes those close to him comfortable in his presence, be they demons or angels, even the hostiles can't help but feel a certain sympathy by the young man.
"Then give me a handshake", Yan said, extending his hand to the angel who reciprocated in the same way, at that moment something unbelievable happened, whether in heaven, earth, underworld or even asgard could feel the explosion of divine power coming from these two . From Yan's chest came a golden beam of light that hit Serafina's heart when something strange happened, one by one the pairs of wings emerged from her back up to a total of six pairs and the sacred energy took over the room and if not by Serafall quickly erecting a barrier Koneko would have been killed only by the brief exposure.
"What's going on?", Serafall asked Chloe who just shook her head not understanding the spectacle in front of her, an almost ordinary angel transformed and rose to the level of a Seraphim just in a handshake, what would happen if they went further.
The skies were in chaos for the first time in history Michael considered turning off the system, someone was hacking God's system without even trying to hide their tracks, but what he saw changed everything, his sister Gabriel in a trance when a trumpet appeared in his hands plain white, with no details or engravings, but of the seven trumpets given by God to her children it is the most special and was only played once about two thousand years ago.
On that day the Serafina took its first step towards the throne of God at the sound of Gabriel's trumpet announcing his ascension to guide the angels into a new era of blessing.
