"Raphael."

Being stretched in the tooshie was much bearable than being stretched brutally by Slade as if I had no bones. If Raphael, Sevor, and Caleb did not interfere, I could have lost both of my legs for going through Slade's wrestling.

"You dumb ancient! Where in the world have you been? Are you going to keep us worrying for every turn we make and we see that you're gone?!" Slade growled and pulled my legs backwards as he put his weight on his tooshie that was placed comfortably on my lower back.

"Slade, you're going to break him!" Sevor snarled.

Fenris already had his sharp teeth sunk in Slade's arm as he emitted a low growl and Raphael was pointing a blue spear against the man's throat. "Back! Back I say!" Raphael commanded. It took three of them to pull the man off of me. When it came to wrestling me, Slade did not hold back at all. Although I appreciate the fact that he was worried, his methods of expressing it was extremely implausible.

Dinner was served and it consisted of fried potatoes with a sweet tomato dip, half cooked steak, fresh mangoes, and broccoli. I gave my steak to Caleb who in return gave me his vegetables to me. Raphael sat by my side while the twins catered the children's food. It was a nice sight to see the both of them tolerating each other's existence. The first time I met them, they couldn't even look at each other. Slade did not like his brother beside him and Sevor thought of Slade as a heavy burden. I do not know if their thoughts for each other changed but seeing that they were not ripping  each other's flesh, I could see improvement.

I sent Caleb to one of the tents which was still unoccupied. I was meaning to ask Raphael where Samael was. I managed to sneak out some leftovers for him since he adored food and the last man he talked to was this angel who I have no knowledge of yet.

The only problem of this conversation of ours was that Raphael seemed to be in a very deep thought that he was not hearing me at all. What could he be thinking? I was already standing in front of him and he still had his eyes focused straight ahead and was unmoving. He was now wearing a white metal armor that glowed in the dark. I do not know why he was suddenly heavy armored but I would guess that he was only taking precautionary measures because he was now in the territory of different kinds of individuals.

Did he do something terrible to Samael? Was he trying to reminisce the way he splattered the man's blood in the soil as he ripped his flesh from his bones? Or was he trying to put up a strategy to kill us in our sleep by stabbing us with his feathers? If this was the case then I cannot let him endanger the lives of the people here. I must take careful steps in order to make him plead for his life and swear loyalty to us.

I do not like how white his armor was. I want it to be the same color as Samael's head. I released power from my feet and a tomato plant with plentiful tomatoes sprouted beside me. It grew just as tall as me and the tomatoes seemed to be delicious. I plucked two from the plant and then squeezed them above his armor. The fruits were crushed by my hands and the juices trailed down the angel's armor and even he was snapped out from his deep thinking.

"Lucian! What are you doing?" Raphael questioned in a surprised tone. He did not look angry at all even with the mess I made with his suit.

"I am making you surrender," I deadpanned. "Where is Samael? What have you done to him? Are you planning to assassinate us all in our sleep?" I interrogated blankly. If he still does not speak, I will remove all  of his hair from his head and genital and switch their places. He will have curly hair on his head and straight hair down in the south.

Raphael gave me a look of confusion before he gave a hearty laugh. He ruffled my hair playfully and sighed. "What are you talking about Lucian? I will not do such things and Samael has been ordered to sacrifice a nymph for our Lord," he explained with a grin before looking down on his armor. "I like what you have done with my armor though. How long will it stain? White is such a blank color but we are required to have this kind of color to represent light. It is a nice change!" He chuckled.
