Chapter 227 - Armor Of God
*********************************************
The Archdemon of Lust
Prince Luxen from the 2nd Circle of Hell
***********************************************
Snow had stopped falling on their heads and the Northern Lights ceased its unique dance.
The dark blue skies were clearer.
More smattering of stars and constellations of various brightness showed up as if it was the Milky Way Galaxy.
There was a roar in the lake waters, and everyone who had stayed afloat in the water glanced around in a panic, searching for where the sound had co from.
The winds beca stronger, generating massive currents in the surface of the lake.
Hair lifted in Luxen's nape and arms.
He felt like sothing was about to get down.
Luxen wasn't wrong.
The deep bottom of the lake shook hard.
It felt like there was an earthquake.
There was a tingling in Luxen's limbs.
The wave trains' source had started from the centre where his unconscious Domina was headed as if the earthquake's epicentre was an electromagnetic spot attracting her there.
As their gazes darted from the unstable water to the surroundings, Luxen and the rest followed her carefully, remaining a healthy distance just in case sothing happened.
There was another massive explosion underneath the lake, creating stronger waves.
The water suddenly rose, and the waves were much stronger this ti.
"We should remove ourselves from the water." Camio had declared as he glanced around in alarm, wading his remaining arm into the water. "It is treacherous."
Like Luxen, Camio definitely knew sothing was up.
There was another powerful shock wave of energy Luxen had felt in his body.
He made an attempt to grab Luna, but sothing had risen above the surface of the water and Luxen was shoved away by a humungous lotus-like creature.
Luxen gasped in shock as he narrowed his eyes at the lotus flower, swimming farther away from it.
"What is that, Your Highness?" Camio asked behind him, and Luxen casually looked behind his shoulder.
Luxen's bland voice was dripped with sarcasm. "If you turn your head a little, you can see that it is a large white lotus, Camio."
The lotus bloom had opened completely like it was the mouth of a monster that had swallowed Luna whole out-of-the-blue.
Nobody even knew where it ca from.
On the other hand, Luxen could also have likened the large lotus bloom into a womb who had taken Luna in like she was its child.
This pristine white colour of the flower could never be found in any parts of Hell, and the brightness of its pallor was nothing compared to snow.
It was the symbol of purity, grace, knowledge, faith and creation of the universe.
There was only one thing that ca to Luxen's mind.
He told the others in a steady, lower-pitched voice. "There was angel interference in the Second Circles of Hell."
Hell's gatekeepers weren't doing their job properly!
They were going to be punished soon.
An Archangel had infiltrated his Ice Kingdom.
Peering around the lotus which had eaten Luna alive, Luxen couldn't see any visible enemy.
The lotus bloom closed as if it was protecting its most priceless treasure.
After a few seconds, sothing even stranger happened.
The flower who had Luna levitated in the air.
Streams of water from the life-sized petals overflowed into them, pouring fresh water over on top of their heads.
They had to find the angel and kill it wherever he/she may be.
Glancing at each other with a curt nod, Luxen and the rest of Uncle Satan's henchn expanded their wings and flew upwards, circling the white lotus and checking for Heavenly intruders.
Despite his other wing working double ti because of its hole, Luxen crossed his arms as he caught Camio's confusion across him while they inspected the flower.
They hovered atop the lotus bloom which was closed to the centre in a tight lock.
The only way they could check for angels was to pry it open.
Keeping a safe distance as he evaluated its appearance, Luxen speculated that the intruder could be inside the floret with Luna.
He summoned his Archdemon Fork in his grip to tear the lotus apart, but when he gathered the strength to stab it, his weapon bounced so strongly--similar to aiming an arrow on a wall made of steel--and it dropped to the water in a splash.
The lotus flower glowed brightly for a second before it dulled--similar to a tail of a firefly.
It was protected with heavy angel magic that a weapon of an Archdemon couldn't penetrate it.
He didn't have to do anything for one of the henchn had already caught it for him.
Camio's cohort who obtained Luxen's weapon before the evil sirens laid their hands on it held the powerful weapon in both of his hands and bowed.
Luxen grabbed the Archdemon Fork from his hand, and this ti, he concentrated enough energy letting it flow from his shoulders to his arms and his fingertips.
Red electric sparks crackled in his biceps.
Moving backwards to gain montum, he drew his weapon and retracted it as far as he could before he catapulted the Archdemon fork to the huge white lotus.
White bolts of lightning crackled around the flower, which could almost light up the entire area.
Even if he aid it at the gap of each petal, the Archdemon Fork Luxen had thrown did not puncture its seemingly delicate petals.
L.uxen's brows furrowed in suspicion.
The white lotus was as strong as the Armor of God, whic was owned by Archangel Mikael.
The Archdemon Fork didn't work.
It just proved that despite how powerful they were in influencing their conjurers to commit unspeakable cris in exchange for their desires, Archdemons were powerless against one Archangel even in their own territory.
How did this Archangel infiltrate the Kingdom?
Oh well, at least they had a chance to kill the Archangel while he was here.
One less Archangel in the Heavenly Realm—especially if it was the warrior Archangel—was one less of a problem.
Luxen heard loud screeches and roars when he heard the resounding horn of the infernal trumpets.
