Gabriel was not truly ignorant of worldly matters.
Nor was she completely unaware of certain things.
After all, having lived so long, it was impossible not to know so things.
However, Gabriel's innocence was genuine. She could understand certain matters, but only in a literal sense.
She rely comprehended them as knowledge.
Thus, when actually encountering such situations, Gabriel's curiosity remained purely childlike and innocent.
She felt no embarrassnt.
Moreover, from the new Lord's reaction, Gabriel understood one thing: the Lord must like her, hence such a response, right?
This further indicated that the Lord's relationship with Heaven would grow closer.
So, when the new Lord suddenly taught Gabriel how to properly cleanse, she smiled gently and began to learn.
But in a way, wasn't this desire to draw closer a form of selfish desire?
Could it shake the very foundation of an angel's existence, potentially leading to a fall from Heaven?
No, because in Gabriel's heart, she acted purely out of sacred devotion—to help this Lord integrate into their great family, entirely without selfish motives.
Gabriel's thoughts remained holy, and her words and actions were equally pure.
Thus, her gaze was innocent and untainted.
Huh?
What was happening?
It was certain that the object she was helping to cleanse had significantly hardened and beco bigger, and if this continued, it felt like the blood vessels inside might burst and spray blood.
At the sa ti, sothing seed to be wriggling—sowhat like the throat swallowing or retching, or as if worms were burrowing under the skin. It was quite frightening.
Is sothing really about to happen? Did I clamp my legs together too tightly?
But before Gabriel could panic, sothing deep within her body surged forth, causing her consciousness to fade.
Outside the hall where the gods reside, if Asia and Xenovia stared at the building radiating intense holy light for too long, their minds would go completely blank, unable to think of anything.
The sa would happen if they got too close.
If they reached the entrance, they would likely stand there in a daze, struggling to regain clarity of mind.
"Hmm?"
"Eh?"
Asia and Xenovia suddenly sensed a change in Heaven.
It was as if Heaven had co to life.
Of course, it wasn't that Heaven had been deathly silent like hell before.
It would be more accurate to say that Heaven had seed unwell in the past, and now it was as if its condition had been cured or alleviated, making it feel more vibrant.
"What?"
A sudden exclamation made Asia and Xenovia jump as they turned to look behind them. There stood a nun who appeared strikingly alluring.
"Griselda..."
Xenovia murmured the other's na softly. She was an acquaintance, a senior from the sa orphanage who had always looked out for her.
How had she managed to reach this floor without them noticing?
"Oh, I didn't co up here on my own. I've been following you two from the start, with Lord Gabriel's permission. It's just that neither of you noticed , which is quite disheartening."
Griselda, a subordinate angel under Gabriel, saw right through Xenovia's thoughts and feigned a pitiful tone.
"Ah, sorry, sorry!"
Asia was the first to apologize.
Xenovia, on the other hand, scratched her cheek awkwardly.
"Griselda, what were you exclaiming about just now? Who were you contacting? Did sothing happen?"
Xenovia changed the subject, having noticed that Griselda seed startled by a ssage from a communication device just before she spoke.
"It's the Angel Birth Pool in Heaven. It was dried up before, but now it's showing signs of activity. It seems to be recovering."
As she said this, Griselda's eyes glead as she gazed at the divine hall.
It appeared that the new master had successfully initiated Heaven's recovery.
"So, does that an pure angels can be born again?"
"Yes, it should be possible."
Of course, the birth of such pure angels wouldn't lead to them looking down upon angels of other forms.
In Heaven, such attitudes didn't exist—everyone was treated equally.
If anyone harbored such thoughts, it would destabilize their existence as angels and lead to their fall.
Griselda herself was an angel transford from a human. This transformation was sowhat similar to the way devils used Evil Pieces, rather than being a hybrid born from the union of an angel and a human.
Although everyone was treated equally, there were still so differences between the two types of angels.
Angels with human bloodlines tended to have richer emotions, making them more susceptible to the resurgence of desires and emotions, which could lead to instability and a fall.
Moreover, such angels found it harder to advance to the rank of High-Ranking Angel.
Those who managed to advance were individuals with exceptionally strong willpower, like Griselda, who had beco a powerful subordinate angel under Lord Gabriel.
And so, the three of them continued to gaze at the divine hall with hopeful anticipation.
After an unknown length of ti, two figures finally erged from the glowing doorway.
"My Lord~"
Griselda imdiately knelt in reverence, simultaneously signaling for the other two to quickly follow suit.
At this mont, the one who stepped out was no longer rely King Solomon in their eyes, but the Ruler of Heaven.
Therefore, they could no longer be so disrespectful. Understanding this imdiately, the two swallowed the title "King Solomon" and also addressed him as Lord.
"Rise. You may still call Renji-sensei or Solomon."
"Ah? That won't do."
"No, we cannot directly address our Lord by na."
"As you wish."
Renji simply shrugged his shoulders.
The group descended back to the Sixth Heaven, arriving at the area where Gabriel resided, preparing to dine at her place.
Hmm, she was still the one cooking personally.
Before the al, Renji was in the courtyard watching the two of them duel.
However, the fight ended in less than ten seconds with Xenovia's defeat.
Although she had been transford into a Demon God, she was still slightly inferior to Griselda.
As for why she was slightly inferior and why it ended so quickly, it was because both sides went all out from the start, intending to decide the outco with a single move.
Thus, Xenovia, with her relatively lesser combat experience, lost to her opponent.
Now, the defeated Xenovia was wiping her holy sword with a soft sponge. The damp sponge clamped onto the blade, polishing it to a wet shine.
Then, she accidentally let the tip of the sword pierce the sponge, also injuring her hand and drawing blood, which flustered Asia beside her as she hurriedly provided treatnt.
So clumsy.
Earlier, Renji had Gabriel clean his weapon with holy water. He took good care of his weapon, not letting it pierce anything.
