Chereads / Angel Has Fallen Down / Chapter 4 - 4. Black Butterfly

Chapter 4 - 4. Black Butterfly

Heavania, Heaven

The sound of a giant golden bell ringing, the sound of a bell can be heard all around Heavania, Angels and Gods gathered in one place as the bell kept ringing, they wondered what happened.

Suddenly a strong wind blew, a wings of a giant black butterfly could be seen above the giant bell that was still ringing until now.

The Angels and Gods were shocked when they saw that, the woman with black hair and butterfly wings was standing on the sacred bell that was still ringing.

The woman has a strange appearance, she is wearing a black dress which is not normal here because the people of heaven must wear white clothes, the woman is not wearing shoes, she even has the wings of a giant black butterfly on her back, she even has a black straight hair and blood red eyes.

Suddenly the woman flew through the wind she flew toward the holy house of God.

When the woman with butterfly wings descended to the ground, Maria looked at her with a smirk on her face, "we meet again, huh? Taurinz"

The woman that were called Taurinz glanced at Maria, "nice to meet you again," she said as she walked past Maria

Maria smirked again, "looks like something big is about to happen," she said as she followed her

The woman was standing in front of the holy door, suddenly the door opened slowly she could see a woman sitting on the throne.

After the door was fully open, with bare feet she stepped in through the hall, she smiled at God when she arrived in front of her, "nice to see you, Lord Georgia," she said casually with a smile without bowing her head to God.

The god was silent as she looked at her, "Taurinz, black butterfly, Shie Erteliasna, will you tell me why you set your foot into this world again?" God asked

"My Lord, I want to tell you about the doomsday which will take place 500 years from now," Shie - the woman said to God

The expression on God's face changed when she heard that, "explain"

"I saw a great catastrophe, when a holy angel and a demon lord meet, they will cause a great catastrophe in this world," Shie explained as she saw the change in God's face.

"What kind of disaster is it?" God asked

"a disaster where the Leuks galaxy will explode and disappear from the universe, I see twins, one with black energy surrounding them and one with holy power, the twins will return to the past where this Galaxy was created and they will stop Luchia Marine from creating world, they will the change history" Shie explained, the crystal ball she was holding shone in front of her, as she could see the shadow of the future

Mary stepped into the hallway, she bowed to God and glanced at Shie, "What do you mean by Luchia Marine? Isn't she just a legend?" she asked directly

"No one said that Luchia Marine's existence never existed, Luchia Marine is the one who created this world and galaxy, the universe that was originally only one was split into two, she is the true God of this world" Shie explained with a smile, her red eyes where sparkling as she staring at the crystal ball in front of her

God sighed when she heard it, "can you explain who the twins are?" God asked

"I can't say their names, it's not right to say anything about the future, but the twins have the same power as the holy angel and the demon lord, I'm afraid it's not the right choice to send the holy angel to kill the demon lord" Shie replied while crossing her arms

God frowned when she heard Shie's answer, "what do you mean?" God asked again

Shie smirked when he heard God's question, "isn't it inappropriate to create a Holy Angel? I was worried from the start, the most holy person can't work alone, are you really a God?"

"How dare you speak like that to our Lord!" Mary shouted when she heard Shie's way of speaking

"Rabbit" one word from Shie with a grin made God shudder, "rabbit started it," she said smiling to God.

God sighed when she heard it, "Mary" she called

Mary bowed, "Yes, my Lord"

"call back Alice, tell her, her assignment is canceled" God commanded with a sigh

"Yes, my lord! Your command is my honor!" Mary answered, she smiled and bowed her head to God

When she saw that, Shie smirked, "can you stop it?" she whispered softly.

Koorselian, Human World

Alice and Lucas were now on the balcony of their own rooms, they sat looking up at the sky.

"By the way, can you sing?" Lucas suddenly asked

Alice turned her face towards Lucas "singing? ahh... that's not my job as an angel" Alice replied

Lucas looked back at Alice, "then you can't?" Lucas asked back

Alice seemed to think "I never tried" she replied back

Lucas smiled, "Try singing! You know songs other than hymns, don't you?" ask Lucas

Alice looked confused, but suddenly she remembered something, "there is one I remember!" she replied, "This beautiful girl I met in Heaven taught me this song when I was young"

"Really? What's the song is?" Lucas asked curiously

Alice tried to think about it "actually I don't really remember it, but...let me try singing it" she hesitated

She started humming, "~ ♪ ~ ♪ for what was this place stretched, stretched to the unknown kingdom, thru between a wave and sea, there's a small boat with you behind it, from this unknown place I could see your smile in it ~ ♪ ...." she started to sing, Lucas closed his eyes enjoying the beautiful voice that came from Alice's voice

"You have a beautiful voice," Lucas said with a smile

Alice was surprised, she had never sang in her entire life because she was a war angel who protected heaven, but apparently when God created her, God also gave her the ability to sing.

"I wonder, are you happy being an angel?" Lucas asked

Alice sighed "I can't really say if I'm happy"

"Why?" Lucas asked again while frowning

"I am a holy angel, my duties are different from other angels, I was created to kill the demon lord, until now I didn't even understand why I had to kill him" Alice sighed as she answered

"So you don't really hate him?" Lucas asked in a somewhat pleased tone

Alice tried to think, "actually no, not really, but since the day I fought him, I hate him because he humiliated me!" she said with hatred, "born as an angel is not fun as people say, born as an angel is not fun, the higher your status the more tasks you have, but if I succeed in killing the demon king, God will grant my wish" she said full determination

Lucas sighed as he smiled at her "...can I know what your wish is?"

Alice looked up at the sky, "I want to break free from heaven, I want to live as an ordinary person, live in the Human World with no burden on my shoulders," she said with sparkling eyes as she looked up at the sky above.

Lucas glanced at Alice, "the higher the status the more burden you have, the more you are respected the more people will hate you but without power you are nothing, being a holy angel is a big burden"

Alice sighed, "at least you understand"

"Well, I'm an experienced man after all," Lucas smirked as he answered that

"really?" Alice smiled hearing that

Lucas stared, "You can smile?!" his voice rises in surprise, his eyes widen in disbelief

Alice frowned, "of course I can"

"From the first time I met you, you never smiled! You just smirked and your grin was so scary!" Lucas said excitedly, "try smiling again!" he asked enthusiastically

Alice wondered, "what's so special about my smile?"

Lucas looks calmer now, "you look prettier when you smile" he said

Alice's cheeks reddened hearing that, she curled up, hiding her blushing face, "thank you..." she said in a low voice

Night had come, it is a time for humans to sleep, Alice woke up suddenly, she got up from her bed and opened her bedroom window, the wind slowly blew towards her, when she looked up at the sky she could see an angel

"Looks like the holy angel is enjoying her stay" Mary looked at Alice with piercing eyes

Alice just stared blankly when she saw Mary "what are you doing here?" she asked

"God commanded you to go back to heaven," said Mary crossing her arms, she then floated towards Alice's bedroom window, "may I come in?" she asked, Alice stepped out of the window and let Mary in

Alice frowned when she heard God's command, "but my mission isn't done yet," she answered confusedly

"This is God's command, besides it, Taurinz is here, she has already set foot in this world" Mary explained

"Taurinz? She is already here?"

"Yes she has set foot in heaven, that means, a big things will come, and if you stay here there will be a big disaster" said Mary she looked around Alice's room which looked neat

Alice frowned again, "what's the matter? Is the great calamity related to my mission?"

Mary's eyes looked at Alice, she sighed, "your job is done, God ordered me to tell you that, don't ask too many questions! I told you not to accept it, but you keep ignores me!"

Alice seemed to be thinking "no, I'm not coming back," she decided

Mary's eyes narrowed, she was surprised to hear that, she looked at Alice with a sharp look, "why?"

"My job is to kill the demon king, after that God will grant my wish to be free from heaven and live as a human" said Alice proudly

Mary fell silent when she heard that, "You must return, it is God's command!" she said in a high tone

"no, I won't" answered Alice, she had set her goal, she wouldn't back down

"If you meet the demon lord, there will be a great disaster waiting for us, return to heaven now!" Mary's manner of speech became higher as she tried to control her anger, she looked at Alice with a disbelieving look, "why did you disobey God's orders?"

Alice sighed, suddenly her wings grew on her back "I want to be free," she said determined

Mary sighed when she heard it "God will not accept your wish, once you become an angel you can't free yourself from God's love, forever until your soul breaks and disappears you will always be the one that God loves, that's the fate of angels, even the laws of the world couldn't deny it" Mary looked at Alice, Mary could see her determined look

"I'm not coming back, it's up to God's choice to set me free or not!" Alice stared at Mary coldly as her wings flapped

Mary smiled wryly when she saw Alice's cold eyes, "You know, I hate you because you never hear anything I say to you,"

Alice was silent "I never asked you to do that for me" suddenly a sword appeared in her hand, she pointed her sword at Mary as if she set her target.

Mary sighed when she saw Alice's sword, "what? You want to fight me?" her eyes filled with anger when she saw Alice

Alice sighed when she heard Mary "no, but conquest, you must know your place"

"Always this! Your dignity and principles will kill you in the human world don't you know?!" Mary stared coldly when she heard that, at this rate, there was no other choice but to fight.

Suddenly the sound of the door opening could be heard, both Alice and Mary looked at the door and found Lucas standing at the door

Mary stared in shock when she saw Lucas, "human?"

Lucas looked at Mary with a surprised tone, "angel?"

"Back off, Lucas!" Alice screamed when she saw him

Mary was silent, "relationship with humans? Are you crazy?" Mary's eyes looked her friends with disbelief, the friend she was proud of, could have anything to do with humans? it doesn't make sense!

Alice looked coldly at Mary "he has nothing to do with this, don't involve him"

Suddenly there was a sound of ringing bell, a ray of light surrounded Alice and Mary suddenly, both of them looked in the direction the light was coming and they found Shie standing at the window smiling at them both "yeah, better not to involve the demon lord in an angels conflict" she said while putting her hands on her knees and smiling

"Demon lord? What did you say?" Alice looked at Shie strangely

Shie put her chin on his hand, she smiled while looking at Lucas, "demon king" she said slowly but could be heard by them

Lucas sighed when she said it, it felt like Shie was pointing at him even though she wasn't, "what is holy Taurinz doing here?" he asked with a smile

Alice looked at Lucas "Lucas? Why did you..." before she could finish what she wanted to say suddenly black energy surrounded them.

A black cloak appeared on Lucas' back, Lucas was even wearing a cravat around his neck, suddenly a lot of demons gathered around him, "I've been caught," he said with a grin.

"What a disaster," Shie said with a smile, "this way, the disaster can't be stopped"

"Yes, disaster" Lucas replied, he glanced at Alice who looked surprised when he saw her, "let me introduce myself, Holy Angel, my real name is Luke Fier'diese, I am Lucifer's brother and the current Demon Lord that you must kill," he smirked when he could see how shocked Alice was

Shie smiled, "nice to meet you demon lord, but we have to go now," she said as she stood up and flew to the sky, "prevoz"

When she heard the teleportation spell, Alice turned around and looked at Shie, "wait…" before she could finish her words, she disappeared with Mary and Shie.

Luke sighed as he watched them disappear before his eyes and left a feather behind, one of the feathers flew past him, with his hand covered by a glove he caught one of the feathers, he looked at the feather and smiled "My Alice, wait for me to meet you in heaven soon, my angel," Lucas smirked he kissed the faded feather and soon after that the feather disappeared and became light and left.
