[Azure Kingdom]

As night falls unto the land of ice and snow, the kingdom in the sky gradually lightens up their own illumination inside their own establishment, as its citizens soon conquered the darkness itself in this dead of the night. Of course this only applies to the establishments inside the capital walls, for the villages outside of the capital's wall, they simply get by through the night by the use lamps and bonfire to lighten up the darkness itself.

It was not as if they were abandoned in their own tools to develop themselves, the hired workers of the kingdom were somewhat doing their best to share the light of the capital towards this small villages in order to accommodate everyone to an easier life during the night. Additionally despite this encroaching darkness around the villages, none of its residents were afraid of the dark, as they go merry in their own way and spend their merry time with their friends and family outdoor.

The reason for their behavior despite the darkness surrounding the villages and the threats of monster within the woods, was all because their safety were assured in the presence of angels patrolling and guarding the whole kingdom itself. With the increase of angels due to their involvement during the tribal war conflict, there were then too many angel residents within the capital, which caused a massive influx of resident and trafficking happening within the streets. Due to that in order to ease up the traffic, Asagi had issued a command to disperse the angels all over the kingdom in order to lessen the load in the capital itself. With that one can literally see angels no matter what area of the kingdom one will go.

Such atmosphere is literally the embodiment of peace. Unfortunately there were some people who often take for granted this peaceful land. One primary example is the incident which involved the Estia Kingdom. Due to their internal conflict, the Azure kingdom was caught in its incidents which heavily involved the queen of angels herself. Because of that the kingdom itself became noisy for quite awhile as the other three kingdoms had their eyes set towards them. After all the perpetrator for the incident haven't been caught yet, due to that a heavy search is still being conducted even to this day.

On the other hand, at this very moment on top of the bell tower that the church has built in the kingdom of angels to showcase their faith towards the people, Azrael is currently looking down at the capital itself from up high of the towers, as he kept his black wings in and observed the citizens that are roaming the streets.

Despite the cold snow and weather of the land, the citizens itself managed to adapt well in this changing environment as they go on their merry way with their own family. Of course one of the reason for this quick adaptation is due to the medicine given by the newly established pharmaceutical firm, but most of all it is due to the resilience of its citizens itself.

At first when Azrael learned that humans begun occupying the sacred land, he couldn't help b7ut voice out his objection and even dared to kick out the humans out of the kingdom of the queen he served. However the moment he even dared to cause trouble for the citizens itself, he was immediately hindered by all of the archangels in the room, which caused him to let out his own hostility.

But his own hostility soon died out, the moment Asagi proclaimed that she herself allowed their occupation. "A kingdom cannot function without its citizens" those were the words given to him by Asagi, even though he is still confused on why his queen is using humanly way of governing the kingdom, he then had no choice but to concede as he tried to be understanding and not antagonize the queen itself. However despite that, he is still skeptical with the ;presence of the humans to the point that he had zero connections towards them at all.

He just don't understand humans at all. At one point they are happy, the next thing they would be angry. They would be good, the next thing they would be sinners. They would act nice and just, the next thing they would act all corrupted from the inside. They would act brave and mighty, the next thing they would act all cowardly. For him humans are just a ball of complexity of the universe gather into one sentient body. Literally no one can understand them.
