The Devil's way of business

Chapter 47 : Solution

Angels flew into heaven as they were surprised to see that god was in sight as soon as they entered as well as all things that were solid on the first sphere " What happened ? " some angels were confused as Michael saw Karma standing at the same level as where god was sitting .

" COUNT DON"T YOU DARE KILL FATHER " As soon as they heard Michael yell that they looked up and quickly flew high to narrow the distance between them so that it didn't go as Michael said " Hey El you should put a shield up or something "

El nods as he gives the angels shields making them a little heavy as their ascent to his throne slowed down " Good now you don't have to worry about heaven losing all of its angels just because they fell "

Karma held the scapegoat up high as he started taking the grace of the angels that god had given them " Tell me did you define the merits and sins ? "

" Yes I made sins turn to rocks while merits were turned to feathers though it's irrelevant to you now that you can turn them into anything you wish however the color will remain signifying their moral alignment "

Karma enjoyed the elation that came from receiving the rewards of merits as he felt like there was paradise in his soul " So your angels have the merit of being made by a benevolent god like you ? "

" Yes it's what I did because I had done everything to make them beautiful , powerful and great , but as with all things that are given they will also be robbed by others "

" COUNT " Michael yelled as his wings grew weaker , he did his best to keep flying but kept falling as his wings were taken from him " But if a child was given food and it was taken away don't you think that child would try to get it ? " El said as Michael's soul sprouted wings made of his own soul instead of the merit granted by god .

" Of course that's true but you just have to keep the child trap in their own cage wouldn't that solve the problem by then ? " El nods as Count reached to heaven grabbing Michael and the other angels who had enough will as Metatron goes to slash the chains that Count made .

People were amazed at what they were seeing , Heaven which had revealed itself to them had debris made of precious materials and angels falling but instead of turning to demons they simply lost their wings , some watched , some continued the battle keeping the war going .

While Gale takes Truth to Karma " Come on " Gale takes Truth who was an owl " Come on flap those wings " It's hard when this is my first time flying " Truth complains as other promise keepers follows them .

" Say El do you remember when the world kept you fed ? " " you must be talking about those group of children right ? " " Yes can you tell me more about them " Karma bends time to give them more time to talk .

" I heard some voices when I wanted to leave my tribe they guided me through the lands and seas , bought fishes and fruits for me to eat , warned me about what's to come "

" Did you take care of them ? " " Yes but I was unable to feed them as they fed me maybe because I had feared they would grow up to be stronger than they already were "

" Because these special children fed on memories that were associated to them , they would grow in their aspects ,  Gale would be able to move more than just winds and Ember would be able to do more than just burn a tree "

" They could be a world all together " Karma said " That's right " " And did you also fear the birth of death ? " " Yes I was lucky there hasn't been one such abstract being or as the people of this modern era have called it "

" Is that why you quickly took all that would be needed to create them by creating the angels of death and Abaddon ? " El nods " Hmm that's amazing C could create gods if they just choose too "
