--- Chapter 187 ---
Huo Yuhao and Kuroka went to the Library of Heaven on the corner of the floating island, fetching Gabriel. The beautiful archangel is sitting on a swing and reading a novel written by Huo Yun'er.
"Her halo, nyaa~!" Kuroka pointed her finger at Gabriel's halo, blinking between bright gold and dark.
"I don't know how sin works in this world, but it sure is bizarre." Huo Yuhao couldn't help but comment. They walked to Gabriel and made the archangel put the novel down skillfully between her bountiful bosom.
"..." Kuroka has never felt so jealous of someone's bust. But Gabriel used those mountains so conveniently.
'If only mine could still grow?' Kuroka's more blessed than average women in this world, but she still felt lacking for some reason.
Gabriel tip-toed from her swing and asked Huo Yuhao, "Do you need something, Father?"
Huo Yuhao smiled and answered, "I wanted to visit heaven. It's time to reclaim the throne of heaven and put the heaven system back in control."
"I'm here to bring you there? You don't have a problem escorting me, right?"
Gabriel's blueish-green eyes brightened as she hurriedly grabbed Huo Yuhao's hand. "Finally~! Of course, I'll be more than happy to escort you around heaven, Father~!" She replied like an excited child.
"You finally returned home." Tears are coming from her eyes.
Huo Yuhao wasn't expecting such a dramatic reaction from Gabriel, but he remembered how she truly cared about the Biblical God. Now that care is directed to him like a coping mechanism for her loss.
Even though Huo Yuhao wasn't the one who caused the Biblical God's death, he was one of the factors in his decline. After sealing Trihexa, the Biblical God went to the Great War's Battlefield and fought devils, fallen angels, heavenly dragons, and him.
'And that man still has a moment to tell me about Trihexa.' Huo Yuhao shook his head, staring at Gabriel with a defeated look.
"Father~?" Gabriel lowered her head in confusion.
Letting a weary sigh from his mouth, Huo Yuhao patted Gabriel's head gently and said, "I see... Then, let's not delay it."
"Let's go to heaven now."
"Mm~!" Gabriel hugged his left arm.
"Me too! Don't forget about me, nyaa~!" Kuroka hugged his other arm.
Gabriel snapped her finger and created a golden magic circle below their feet, doing mass teleportation magic. Since Gabriel was from heaven, she felt obligated to do so, even though Kuroka knew the location too.
'To the heaven~!'
'I couldn't wait.'
Imagining Huo Yuhao sitting on the throne of heaven, Gabriel sent three of them to heaven.
They arrived at the Sixth Heaven instantly and saw three familiar faces greeting them.
"Yuhao-dono!" Micheal was surprised to see Huo Yuhao here. Yet, Gabriel has prepared everything to welcome him since his second appearance.
He tried kneeling alongside his brothers, but Huo Yuhao stopped them because a formal greeting isn't "actually." needed. He wasn't here to impose dominance, as they surrendered to him one year ago.
Well, he would do it later.
Huo Yuhao is paying respect and homage to the Biblical God. He didn't want to barge in and create chaos, you know?
"Uriel, Raphael. You can say your complaints now before I reclaim the throne. Unlike Micheal and Gabriel, you two showed dissatisfaction when surrendering to me one year ago, no?"
"You surrender not because you trusted me. You surrender because your late father ordered all of you to do so." Huo Yuhao's blue eyes shine when staring at two archangels.
"Come on, said it. I won't be mad." A smile appeared on Huo Yuhao's face because some constructed critique wouldn't turn off his blaze to conquer this world.
Uriel opened his mouth first and said, "We are not dissatisfied. We only thought there would always be one and only God in this heaven. Our father, Our creator, the Supreme God of Humanity."
"Father decided you'll take his mantle, and as his son, I only follow his teaching to this very heart. Even if I opposed the idea."
Raphael nodded and continued, "Your action so far showed no indication of wiseness. Killing without remorse, conquering without thinking of consequence."
"I know it sounds hypocritical, considering how many lives this hand has taken in the Great War. Our father isn't innocent either, but his wisdom shan't get surpassed by you."
"I believe you aren't ready."
'They are right.' Huo Yuhao chuckled while closing his eyes. After realizing how disappointing Highschool DxD is, he became less weighty in his judgment and playful with his action.
There is nothing wrong with being playful, but he was the leader of the Dragon Nest and millions of others. Arrogance and Confidence mixed in his soul, bringing disaster like the devil's army he led to the Realm of the Dead.
"Haha, that struck me quite brutally."
"I guess being Chief of Patience and Temperance makes you two observative, huh?"
Huo Yuhao opened his eyes and stared at the two archangels, shaking his head because they weren't trusting him. "I'll keep your words in mind." He gave them a smug expression.
"We will see if I was worthy or not soon."
He walked to the seventh heaven with Micheal, Gabriel, and Kuroka. They saw a tall golden gate decorated with beautiful yet humble-looking ornaments. The gate stood grandly above pure white clouds.
CRIEEEEK~!
As Huo Yuhao took a step forward, the gate of heaven opened as if it was welcoming him inside.
"..." Micheal was speechless. He could only enter after praying for months, if not years.
Even though their father granted him access and sub-control over heaven's system, he's technically an uninvited guest for the seventh heaven.
The seventh heaven is the home of Biblical God, a comfortable place where he accepts his eternal rest. His remaining became one with the world and protected it from harm if something dangerous ever happened.
He also left Sacred Gear's System, so humanity could gain a chance to survive in this supernatural world.
Gabriel's body trembled when seeing this sight, following Huo Yuhao from behind with admiration.
"Nyaa~!" Kuroka's face smacked against an invisible barrier.
"I can't take another step..."
Huo Yuhao was "actually." amused by this sight and glanced at the gate of heaven. Watching the black girl struggle to break the invisible barrier, but no matter how hard she tries, the force is still way above her current level.
After all, this invisible barrier is the same barrier the Biblical God uses to seal Trihexa. Not to mention any intruder would get kicked out by the defense system if they were threats.
Fortunately, Kuroka isn't a threat to heaven.
Huo Yuhao stared at the gate of heaven and said, "Can you let her in? She's one of my trusted companions."
"She won't do anything bad with me around."
"Uwaaa~!" Kuroka used too much strength as the invisible barrier disappeared, causing her to smack her face on the cloud.
It wasn't as fluffy as she expected.
"Uugh..."
Huo Yuhao offered a hand to lift her, and Kuroka grasped it with a wronged expression. "Thank you, Darling~!" She said sweetly.
'Father!' Gabriel glared at Kuroka.
'!!!' The gate of heaven reacted weirdly as well.
They entered the seventh heaven and saw a lonely throne with two floating orbs on each side. This place is basically an empty room filled with clouds and a golden sky.
Even the sky looks somewhat gloomy for some reason.
Micheal and Gabriel prayed while kneeling their legs down, seeing the throne with the utmost respect.
"Yuhao-dono/Father."
"Please take a seat."
"He has been waiting for you for years."
Huo Yuhao walked casually and sat down on the throne of heaven, feeling the invasion of spiritual energy. Usually, Huo Yuhao would resist it, and sensing no harm, he accepted the connection.
Ding!
Like a bell of reign getting rang, the whole heaven trembled.
Above Huo Yuhao's head, a godly halo formed itself.
However, it wasn't just golden, but blue gold instead, similar to the crown of light he had when using Ancient Ink Devil's Form.
On earth, a phenomenon happened abruptly as several stars surrounded the sky. The ground and sea shook violently for a second, spurting several white pillars.
The white clouds become bluish-gold, indicating heavenly changes in the atmosphere.
A drop of water fell into a motionless white world, and Huo Yuhao opened his eyes again.
Huo Yuhao saw the Biblical God standing before him with a smile.
"It took you longer than I expected to visit this place. Well, my vision isn't as omnipotent as I thought."
"There always be the sky above the sky."
"Nice to meet you, Huo Yuhao."
"Or should I call you Putra Indra Santoso?"
"You..." Huo Yuhao frowned solemnly. He never told anyone about his previous life's name. Huo Yun'er and Yae definitely knew something, but they weren't women who would snitch.
The Biblical God smiled helplessly and sat on the ground, "Sit. I'll explain how I know about this particular information."
"Also, you can call me Yeshua."
"Though, no one called me that after my ascension."
"Okay, Yeshua." Huo Yuhao sighed and sat because he had too many questions.
"Water? Wine?"
"No, I'm not thirsty."
"Straight to the point then." Yeshua nodded calmly.
He looked at Huo Yuhao and said, "One year after your disappearance in the Great War, I used my heavenly vision to see everything about you."
"After all, you're coming from another world, a completely unknown territory to ours."
"Let's just say I bite more than I can chew."
"Like a slap on the head, I received a revelation, which is ironic because I'm one of the strongest beings here..."
"That revelation contained a warning for me and a task for you."
"Warning that I shouldn't dream about finding your secret, even though the revelation shared your first life's name to convince you that this was real."
"The task is?" Huo Yuhao questioned calmly.
Yeshua took a deep breath and answered, "As soon as you conquer this world, a powerful being will arrive with his army."
"He'll be your first obstacle to becoming part of the order, the revelation said."
"It's your destiny to fight this being. Or this world will face its end."
