Pablo set the wings of Andrezj on fire and the fire of glory match spread fast.

He was not sure if the strongest Angel would catch fire but Pablo tried it and it worked.

"What have you done, Pablo? You just can’t do sothing like this to an Angel!" Cupid yelled.

"You bastard!" Andrezj scread and Pablo laughed all the way.

His face was bruised from the punches but Pablo enjoyed the heat Andrezj felt.

"You are hitting . I have full right to fight back." He said.

Andrezj gritted his teeths and got off Pablo.

Pablo coughed blood and Andrezj clapped his big white wings with full force.

He also waved his hands and muttered sothing under his breath.

And the next mont, the fire on his wings slowly departed and his burnt wings were back to normal.

Pablo laid on the floor but his eyes remained locked on Andrezj.

Andrezj stared back at him.

"This fire only touched because I touched you. If my dearest faced any further issue because of you, I swear I will kill you."

Andrezj gave a threat and snapped his fingers.

He then slowly began to disappear.

"Your Goddess Alfida begged to co here. If she herself couldn’t do shit to , you are a far cry." Pablo replied and Andrezj finally disappeared completely.

Cupid could only watch Pablo and Andrezj back and forth. She didn’t know what to say to the two n.

Pablo, on the other hand, took a deep breath and moved his body.

His face dripped blood but he did his best to stand up.

His body wasn’t in pain but he did take so heavy punches by Andrezj.

He moved his jaw left and right and walked towards Sera again.

He placed her head on his lap and slapped her face.

"Wake up, Sera. Wake her up, Angel. You vented your anger, now make her awake."

Pablo said to Andrezj.

"She is already awake." Andrezj replied.

Cupid relayed that to Pablo and Pablo stared at Sera.

"Why are you acting asleep?" He asked.

Sera opened one of her eyes. "I wanted to rest in your arms a little longer."

"When did you wake up?" Pablo asked.

"Just when you put my head on your lap."

"Open both your eyes and look at ." Pablo said.

Sera did that and as soon as she looked at Pablo’s face, her brows shot up.

"What happened? Did you get into a fight here? Who did this?" She asked, touching the wounds of Pablo’s face.

"Your guardian Angel pumled on the ground." Pablo revealed.

Sera gasped. She jerked her head to her left side.

"How dare you do this to him?" She asked, glaring at Andrezj.

Andrezj bowed his head.

"You know why I did that, dearest. You fainted inside the mist. I even lost you for twenty seconds. He made you suffer so much I couldn’t bear."

"I don’t give a shit. It gives you no right to hurt him. If you ever do this again, I will stop talking to you."

"Ar.. I am sorry." Andrezj just apologized.

Pablo smiled. He looked at the empty space where he believed Andrezj was.

Andrezj clenched his fists and that was the only thing he could do.

"Let it be, Sera. I burnt his wings for hurting . We are settled now." Pablo said.

"As you say." Sera ignored Andrezj.

"Now tell what happened inside the mist." Pablo moved to the main thing.

"Right. In simple words, it was the worst thing I ever faced."

"Explain. And get up."

Sera sat up from the lying position. Pablo didn’t want her on his lap anymore and Sera didn’t retorted.

"I will tell you from the start." Sera began talking.

"It was fine when I entered the mist. Andre and I talked to each other constantly and he told where to walk. I couldn’t see after all. But after, I don’t know, five minutes? I felt sothing was wrong."

"What?" Pablo asked.

"Like no matter how much I walked, I kept coming back to the sa place. Even Andre was shocked. I was feeling weird and my mind was not working well too. I even forgot talking with Andre."

"Keep going."

"But since I was sane enough to feel that my skin wasn’t damaged by the mist, I decided to stay inside the mist for one hour just like you asked. And since I was inside the mist anyway, I decided to walk a little more. I thought if I find the cause of the mist myself then you will be happy and Andre helped with that."

"But you just said you forgot to talk to Andre."

"Yes. I have forgotten. But not Andre. He was talking with and I was replying to him. So like that, we walked and Andre made sure to use his magic this ti so that we won’t circle around the sa place.

I was eager to solve the mystery for you so I walked faster. And after fifteen minutes of walking, Andre told he finally saw so houses. When he said that, I was happy. I had finally reached the village. But I stopped walking."

"I am listening."

"I stopped walking not because I was tired but because I asked Andre to take to the closest house he could see. Andre agreed and he gave directions to the nearest house. I walked towards it and I kept walking. I walked and walked and yet I never reached that house."

"Why?"

"I don’t know. I asked Andre and he said the house is close but he also doesn’t know why I couldn’t reach it no matter how much I walked. But I didn’t give up. I walked forward for fifteen more minutes and that’s when Andre shouted, ’Stop!’"

"Okay?"

"I asked Andre what happened and he said that a thick white mist was in front of . Mist thicker than we are seeing here. But since I was wearing the suit, I was confident the mist wouldn’t hurt . So I said to Andre, let’s dive in. But he refused. He won’t let go inside that.

He was saying the thick mist is bad. It is more dangerous than the mist we have seen before. I asked him his reasoning behind that and he said he was just sensing that.

If he would have given a logical answer then I would have listened to him. I refused to trust his senses and for you, I dived inside the thick mist."

"Appreciate that."

Sera smiled and carried on.

"Andre scread from behind but I believe I was already inside the mist. I was blind with the suit on so I just kept walking. Andre must have followed in the mist but he didn’t co to . I was clueless. There was no one around . Andre wasn’t there.

I called him through my mind but I received no answer. There was silence all around and for the first ti in my life, I was terrified by silence.

I stopped walking and waited for Andre to co. I was sure he would co. I kept my ears and mind vigilant for any little bit of sound or voice and a voice did arrive. But that wasn’t Andre."

Sera’s hands trembled.

"That voice rang inside my head and it was not a voice at all. It was a cry. A cry filled with a distorted and echoed voice of soone else. It was simply terrifying.

I sat down on the ground, I held my chest, I grabbed my head, but the cry wasn’t stopping. It was only getting louder. I scread. I wailed. But the cry never left my mind.

The cry grew louder and louder and in the end, I scread to the top of my lungs and the next thing I knew was that I was resting on your lap."

Sera finished her story and she ca closer to Pablo.

"That cry will haunt in my sleep. I will have nightmares of it. I still rember the details of it. I don’t know whether there is a Demon or cannibals inside the mist but that cry… wasn’t Human."

"When I heard her scream, I got to know where she was. I flew there and held her. And then I brought her here. She was terrified and I was terrified because of that." Andrezj told his part and Cupid relayed it to Pablo as usual.

"I see. Thanks for doing this, Sera. I really appreciate it. You were a big help." Pablo patted Sera’s head and Sera lted under his hand.

"Anyway, I can believe that the Demonite suit works?" Pablo asked.

"Yes. It works very well. I felt no heat and the mist didn’t harm my skin. You created a great thing." Sera praised Pablo’s creation and that was all Pablo needed.

He gave a nod and stored everything spread around the road inside his left bracelet.

The Demonite suit, the Kevlar suit and the Glory matches.

After that, he started walking away from the white mist.

Sera followed him.

"Are we going back to the slums?" She asked.

Pablo shook his head. "We are going to the completely opposite place from the slums."

"Oh. And that is?"

Pablo’s lips curled up.

"It’s ti to et the King."
