"I'll stop talking. The more I talk, the angrier I get!"
When she mentioned that the angels were coveted by other races, Karris was very angry.
She simply closed the book and stared out the window, as if she could kill those who coveted the angels with her gaze.
Ian tilted his head and looked at this usually cute and silly angel sister.
Karris had an oval face, slightly round cheeks, a small nose, and long eyelashes that would tremble from time to time.
With her appearance, she was the standard cute girl. Even if she was angry now, she looked like she was acting coquettishly and not angry.
But Ian could sense that Karris was in a bad mood.
The six pure white wings behind her were flapping slightly, and the divine power in her body was also rolling. An invisible aura had already spread.
However, she immediately lowered her head and sighed heavily.
"Ian, when will you grow up?
"Did you know that millions of years ago, the angels were the masters of the entire Heaven Realm? At that time, our people were respected wherever they went.
"But now, even some inferior races want to snatch the inheritance of our angels and try to destroy our race.
"The most recent time was 5,000 years ago. At that time, the Shadow Gods actually joined forces with other Gods to invade us in order to snatch our inheritance.
If not for the magic array left behind by the old Divine King to protect this place from invasion, that battle would have been the extermination of our angels.
"Forget it, forget it. You're still young. You won't understand even if I tell you."
After talking for a while, she looked out of the window in a daze.
When Ian saw this scene, he could not help but fall into deep thought.
He didn't know how powerful the so-called Main Gods and Divine King were. After all, the strongest explosion of power he had ever seen was when Karris advanced.
At that time, the golden light shone in the entire house, and a powerful aura spread throughout the surroundings.
At that time, Ian almost thought that this was the supreme power.
But now, it seemed that the six-winged angel was only a low-level combat level in the Heaven Realm. There were countless levels above it.
In that case, the 12 Main Gods should have the ability to destroy the world.
As for the Divine King who could suppress the gods, his strength should be supreme.
The question was, what exactly happened a million years ago?
What kind of change could cause the Divine King, who had ruled the Heaven Realm for millions of years, to fall silently?
Ian's small face showed surprise and puzzlement. He wanted to ask Karris what was going on, but he was a baby now and couldn't talk.
In fact, Ian was still unclear. Even if he could speak, he was destined to not get an answer.
There were only a few clues about the death of the old Divine King.
Not to mention Karris, even the current Archangel Marlena didn't know the details.
After all, it had already been a million years. Time was the best grinding machine that could take away all traces of that time. In addition, the 12 Main Gods had deliberately concealed this. Perhaps the fall of the old Divine King was destined to become an unsolved mystery.
However, what puzzled Ian the most was not the death of the old Divine King.
What did his death have to do with him?
What he was most concerned about was why the angel race had fallen to such a state.
According to what Karris had said before, the decline of the angel race was initially due to the 12 Main Gods' fear of angels.
They made the angels go to the abyss of rare beasts to fight endlessly against demons, and tacitly allowed some races to fight against angels.
These external factors were undoubtedly the main reason for the decline of the angel race.
But there seemed to be a problem with the angels themselves.
From what Karris had just said, Ian knew that the overall strength of the angel race had been declining for the past million years.
Their path of advancement seemed to have been sealed.
A million years ago, the angel race had countless high-level angels. The strongest could compete with the gods.
But now, they had gradually become the lowest level of combat power in the Heaven Realm.
Logically speaking, continuous battles should be able to stimulate the power of angels. Although the number of angels was decreasing, under the survival of the fittest, the ones who survived were all elites. Their strength should be stronger generation after generation.
But the truth was right in front of him.
Not only did the strength of the angels not increase, but they also became weaker and weaker.
At this moment, the strongest angel was only Marlena, a ten-winged angel.
She was the most outstanding angel in the entire angel race in the past thousands of years!
As for some angels with ordinary talent, they could only be stuck at the Two-Winged Angel stage for a lifetime, or at most become Four-Winged Angels, unable to advance any further!
This was because the environment in the Heaven Realm was better.
Otherwise, Ian could not help but suspect that the angels would gradually fall to the level of mortals as new generations were created.
Ian looked at Karris, who was still in a daze, and his eyes flickered slightly.
The current situation of the angels was like a curse.
They had fought for years, but their advancement had been blocked, causing the entire race to rapidly decline.
Ian couldn't help but wonder if this was the doing of the so-called 12 Main Gods. After all, the Angel race was the old Divine King's sword bearer.
While they were endorsing the Divine King and enjoying glory, they had definitely offended many factions.
The atmosphere in the room gradually became heavy.
Karris was preoccupied, and Ian was speculating on some possibilities.
The two of them fell into absolute silence.
The room seemed to be surrounded by a cage. The atmosphere made Ian a little breathless.
Just as the atmosphere was extremely heavy, Karris suddenly smiled.
This smile was like the sun after dark clouds, instantly opening up the atmosphere in the room.
She scooped up Ian.
"Hehe, but it's fine now!
Ian, if you really are the holy son in the legend, then the angels will soon welcome hope.
"I've never seen tens of thousands of high-level angels flying together. I wonder, Ian, if you can bring the angels back to their former glory?"
Ian was touched by the sight of Karris's hopeful face.
To be honest, he still did not know what the so-called Holy Son was.
However, he had the ability to advance angels. At the same time, he could obtain powerful strength through interaction with angels. Perhaps this was the opportunity for the angels to prosper again.
Ian was a mortal himself, but he had a good impression of the beautiful race of angels.
They were the advocates of justice and kindness. They were a combination of beauty and wisdom. In the eyes of the world, angels had the charm to make people worship them.
Ian naturally did not want such a race to disappear in the river of time.
Therefore, Ian gently clenched my small fists and nodded seriously.
What he did excited Karris.
