Part 31
Looking for Angels
It was one of the most rare and mighty visitations ever. It was Kirito, the son of the dark Lord Atsushi himself, who stood in front of the gates to heaven with his two confidants Tsukasa and Uruha. Him coming to heaven had the same importance like the ruler of hell Atsushi coming in person. Kirito, his son, had all power and consent to act in the name of hell. Atsushi on the other hand wasn't interested in politics and never interfered. What he did in the dark wasn't know to anyone either. And since they couldn't enter heaven without an official invitation, the three high Demons stood in front of the gate to heaven, waiting for permission to enter.
"I think we scared them." Tsukasa added dryly.
"I would be too." Kirito added but left his gaze on the stern looking Cherubim behind the gates of heaven. There was a slight turmoil going on and moments later, a wave of energy shook the sphere they were all standing in.
"What's going on?!" Uruha looked around. Kirito had felt it too and he knew. "They sealed the entrance to the lower spheres, security reasons I presume."
"They can do that?" Tsukasa murmured monotone.
"Seems so." Kirito added and he took a step forward when he saw Kamijo-sama coming closer to them to the gates of heaven.
"Quite a decent following, Metatron-sama." Kirito greeted and he looked at all the Archangels, Angels of Revenge and some Cherubs right behind him.
"Same." Kamijo replied. "I don't want to seem rude but to what do we owe the honour of your visit?"
"Maybe a word in private?" Kirito said.
"Of course. Hope you don't mind if I keep two Angels of Revenge with me... just in case."
Kirito gave a bitter sweet smile. "Of course."
Kamijo invited them in, only then they were able to cross the border into heaven.
Tsukasa and Uruha followed behind Kirito and Kamijo. Kazu, leader of the Angel of Revenge and a second AOR, not Karyu this time, entered with Kamijo and closed the door behind them. The rest of the fighting class positioned themselves next to the doors as did the Archangels. Kazuki looked back at Aiji and Kai but they didn't say a word. The Archangels however observed the whole ongoing from a safe distance. Meanwhile, another very often spoken of Angel of Revenge, Karyu, had made his way back to the borders where his beloved Hizumi had witnessed everything. Leaning on his spear, Hizumi turned his head and through the black strands of his hair, his white eyes lay on Karyu coming closer, observing each of his steps until he had stopped right in front of him. Karyu knew Hizumi's quiet but petrified looks.
"This was the Son of the Dark Lord, together with Uruha and Tsukasa."
Karyu nodded.
"You know that Tsukasa hates your guts for killing Zero and he won't stop until you or one of your beloved has paid for it."
"I already paid for my sin, I was captured in hell and it was Kirito himself who set me free... with a little bit of persuasion I might add."
Hizumi turned his look from Karyu to someone in the distance who came closer to them. It was Kazu, AOR's Leader. He stopped in front of the two of them.
"Congratulations Karyu. You've been invited to a chat with hell."
Hizumi looked at him and Karyu nodded before he turned around to follow Kazu. For the split of a second, warm fingers touched his hand before the warmth left again.
