Chapter 2993 The Heart of a Saint
Distant clouds.
Isaac, who had been unconscious for an unknown length of time, finally woke up from his deep sleep. As soon as he opened his eyes, he let out a cry of pain mixed with a low roar. The doomsday judgment brought down by the devil seriously injured him and he suffered for several days. After the fire burned, he felt that his entire soul was about to melt completely under the flames. Even though he had escaped from the sea of fire, the unbearable hot feeling still remained in his body and had not dissipated for a long time.
The doomsday judgment brought down by the devil is enough to burn everything to ashes. Only a true hero can barely withstand the power of the doomsday fire and find a chance to survive. Saint Isaac couldn't help but lament this fate. If he hadn't become a hero by luck, his final fate would be no different from those who turned to ashes in the sea of fire, let alone save the same people as him. A girl trapped in a sea of fire.
Thinking of the girl named Irene, Isaac's eyes suddenly opened wide. He tried to stand up, but saw golden chains tightly binding him. No matter how hard he struggled, he could not escape from the chains. There was no girl around, but the clanking of chains attracted the attention of the golden figure not far away.
"Are you awake?" The angel wearing golden armor and six wings flapped his wings and slowly flew to Isaac who was bound by chains.
Isaac raised his head numbly, only to see a bright light coming down on him. A seraph wearing a slim armor and holding a spiral sword was staring at him with a scrutinizing look on his face.
"Archangel...Gabriel." Looking at the Seraphim who was examining him, Isaac also recognized her identity and planned to bend down to salute, but had to give up because of the constraints of the chains.
That solemn yet heroic seraph was one of the three archangels who controlled Yunzhong City. According to Isaac's past status, it was impossible for him to be personally received by the archangel. Now he saw The archangel appeared in front of him, and he himself was bound by golden chains. While Isaac was solemn, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised and didn't understand what was going on.
"Dear Archangel, please tell me, what happened? Why am I bound by chains?" Isaac's eyes widened and he couldn't help but ask.
"Perhaps this question should be answered by you." Gabriel's eyes were somewhat questioning and indifferent, "Saint Isaac, according to the oracle in the clouds, you were supposed to return to the clouds a few weeks ago. Holy City, succeeded to the position of Holy Judgment Angel, but you broke the promise. When the angels found you again, you were in Mingyue City that was burned by the fire of doomsday, and you were holding a girl from the city in your arms."
"Irene..." Hearing this, Isaac couldn't help but feel nervous. His last memory still focused on the choice of saving the two girls. He didn't know what Irene's current situation was. Now that Gabriel heard At the mention of that name, Isaac quickly asked, "How is Eileen doing now? Is she okay?"
"Do you still have time to worry about that girl? I think it's better to worry more about yourself." Gabriel said calmly, without concealing his rebuke to Isaac, "Saint, do you know that you have broken the destiny?" Rules? Now you are no longer a righteous man who obeys fate and fights for justice in the world, but a completely depraved rebel with unforgivable sins. According to the words of those mortals, you are now a A hero."
Gabriel glared at him, and his heroic face showed a bit of anger, and then said: "You have violated the guidance of fate. I don't know why the Stigmata chose you to succeed the Holy Angel, but I think he You must have made a mistake. You who broke your destiny are not qualified to obtain the authority of the Holy Judgment and associate with us and other archangels."
Isaac lowered his head. As a saint, he became a rebellious hero who defied fate. This was undoubtedly a provocation to the order of the entire Cloud City, and this was exactly what the Demon King wanted. The devil did not kill him, but what awaited him was an experience more painful than death. He had brought shame to the name of the saint and lost the glory of the past, and this was the reason why he was bound.
"I know that I have made an unforgivable mistake during this trip. If the Stigmata plan to punish me for this, I will not have any complaints. The only thing I want to know is what is the situation of that girl? Have I ever saved her from the doomsday judgment? Merciful Archangel, please answer my doubts."
Isaac gritted his teeth and said without any excuse for what he did. The only thing he cared about was the girl's condition.
Sensing the calmness and determination in Isaac's words, even Gabriel couldn't help but look at him one more time. Admittedly, she was extremely dissatisfied with Isaac for going against his fate and becoming a hero, and she didn't give him anything in her words. She had a good face, but when she truly felt his touching determination and kindness from the bottom of her heart, her attitude seemed to have changed a little.
"You can rest assured. When the angels found the girl, she was in a coma due to being in a hot environment for a long time and not being able to eat for many days. If not for this period, you used your own power to protect her. With her last breath, she was likely to die here. With the help of angels, she woke up earlier than you." Gabriel slowly told the situation, and at the end, her eyes looked at the saint. Slightly different.
If the fire of doomsday continues to burn for a few more days, even the saints will not be able to survive it, and their final fate will be to be burned to ashes by the flames. The saint in the sea of fire does not know when the doomsday fire will end, but he is willing to use his remaining strength to protect a very weak human girl. Naturally, the saint is aware of the danger, but he still I did it without hesitation. Although Gabriel didn't like Isaac very much, he admired that righteous deed very much.
"Really..." After hearing this, the stone hanging in Isaac's heart finally fell to the ground, and he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. The moment he heard that the girl had survived, he was more relieved than any good news in the world.
"Now it's your turn to answer my question." After a moment of silence, Gabriel finally said, "The flames that burned down Mingyue City were not ordinary doomsday fires. As far as I know, there is only one person in the world who can To release that level of doomsday judgment, what exactly happened there? You'd better tell everything you know."
Sensing the interrogation in Gabriel's words, Isaac could only show a wry smile. Not long ago, he had just received the oracle and was about to become a powerful Holy Judgment Angel and associate with those archangels. However, everything The direction was beyond his expectation. Now he is no longer a glorious saint, but just a sinner who broke his fate.
"Just when I was about to return to the Holy City in the Cloud, the Demon King in Hell captured me. He asked me to do something for him. At that time, I didn't understand what his words meant. But from that moment on , I completely fell into his plan..."
Isaac didn't mean to hide anything, and told the complete story of what happened before. Even though he is now a sinner who broke his fate, in his heart, he is still the saint with justice in his heart.
After listening to Isaac's narration, even the well-informed archangel couldn't help but feel his heart freeze at this moment. In addition to sighing at the sinister nature of Lucifer, he actually used this method to plunge mankind into complete self-destruction. , a little pity for Isaac inevitably arose in his heart.
If what Isaac said is true, all this is not the fault of the saint, he is just a victim of Lucifer. The real culprit that caused all this is the devil who despises all living beings and has evil intentions. . On the contrary, it was the saint's various actions in this process that made Gabriel secretly nod his head, wanting to maintain his kind nature and persistence in justice under the pressure and temptation of the devil. Not an easy task.
At this point, Gabriel's expression towards the saint also improved. Although due to his status, he had always been serious in his speech, the indifference and questioning were quietly resolved. Gabriel has always admired those righteous people.
"I already know the matter. This matter is not your fault. It is all Lucifer's fault. You don't have to blame yourself for this. In front of him, you have done everything you can do."
Gabriel's words of relief only resulted in the saint shaking his head bitterly: "I can feel that Lucifer didn't do anything. He didn't use any of his own power. He just let me stop and watch with him to see what happened to human beings." How to self-destruct. The cowardice that is placed in the soul and attached to the bones has prompted mankind to embark on the wrong path of no return. Perhaps, as he said, only heroes can completely abandon that cowardice... …”
Although some time has passed since that special journey, Isaac's heart still seemed to be trapped in Mingyue City, and he could not get out of it for a long time. Every time he thought about the situation at that time, the saint felt a twist in his heart. Pain, those situations when human beings self-destruct, will reappear in his mind as soon as he closes his eyes.
The will of a hero is like a rising wave. When faced with an approaching crisis or an enemy that hurts his bones, the rising wave may be tens or hundreds of meters high, or even reach the sky, threatening to sweep away the hero. The sky and the earth were swallowed up, but when the crisis passed and the wave completely subsided, what remained in the heart of the hero was only unspeakable sadness.
Faced with the devil's questioning, the saint can muster up the courage to answer loudly like a hero. But when the matter passes, the wave of the hero's will has completely subsided. Every time he thinks of the situation at that time, the saint is left only secretly sad. , he asked himself more than once if he had done something wrong.
Hearing the saint's bitter whisper, Gabriel suddenly became angry and wanted to slap the saint completely awake: "Listen to what you are saying now! Did you also use these words to answer Lucifer then? I I can forgive you for becoming a hero, but I cannot tolerate you agreeing with his point of view. Do you think, like him, that human life is meaningless and that only heroes are qualified to live in the world?"
"I don't know..." The saint seemed to be stunned by the slap and said tremblingly, "But I did see the self-destruction of mankind. I don't understand why things have developed to this point? If everything is fate So, what is the meaning of the lives of those human beings who self-destruct?" New
As if aware of the pain in the saint's heart, Gabriel held up Isaac's square face and explained his doubts with a solemn expression:
"You have seen those self-destructive humans, haven't you? They use their actions to show their mistakes to you and everyone who can see them, making the living people cherish everything that is hard-won. This will This is the meaning of their existence here. This is the meaning given to them by fate. People will know what is right and what is wrong because of them. Because of them, you will stand up in times of crisis and resist the will of the devil. , this is the greatest meaning of their existence... It’s just that if you cross that line and become a hero, you are destined to be rejected by fate.”
Isaac's eyes became moist as he listened to the archangel's explanation. The moment Gabriel showed his solemn expression, his soothing beauty was no less beautiful than any woman in the world. From that angel, Isaac saw the shadow of his devout Andorra godmother in the past. , if his godmother saw his current depravity, she would definitely be very disappointed in him.
"I already know what happened. I will feed back all the information about you to the Stigma Bearer in the clouds, and let him decide your punishment. Before that, you can just wait here with peace of mind."
Gabriel said lightly. Seeing that the saint was bound by golden chains and unable to move his body, she felt compassion. Before leaving, she untied the chains that bound the saint and asked at the same time: " Is there anything else I can help you with?"
"I want to see Eileen. Isn't she awake? Can she come to see me? I want to make sure she is safe." After hearing what Gabriel said, Isaac stood up immediately and hurriedly made his only request.
Gabriel just shook his head and looked at the saint with even more pity in his eyes: "She woke up earlier than you and specifically told the angel that she didn't want to see you again. She said that you violated her Willingness killed people who should have survived.”
"Really..." Isaac sat back down on the ground and murmured.
The people he saved did not express gratitude to him. Instead, they only complained and blamed him, and did not even want to see him. However, Isaac did not blame Irene for this. When he heard the news that Irene was safe, he became angry with him. He is very satisfied. As long as he can stick to the justice in his heart, no matter what the result is, it is enough for him.
Gabriel took a deep look at him, then waved his wings and turned into a golden stream of light, flying to the end of the sky, preparing to feed back all the information obtained from the saint to the Stigmata who dominated the clouds.
