Chapter 49 - Chapter 49, Limbo 2

The three archangels got blasted with a large number of memories that they didn't want to remember at all, seeing these memories made them tremble as they finally recognized this person before them.

Suddenly the dignified angel that is sitting beside Michael said in a trembling tone.

"D… DE… DEVOURER" he stuttered at the beginning and then managed to finish the word in a loud shout.

Seeing that they remembered him very well, made Will smile with satisfaction.

He looked at them, and then examined them again from head to toe.

The three archangels felt a little uncomfortable from Will's gaze but they didn't dare to make a sound unless they wanted to be beaten again.

Those three are not ordinary archangels.

They are among the most famous angels in the Bible: Michael, Raphael, and Uriel.

Three of the current seven heavenly virtues, each one of those named three represent a seat among the seven available seats. As the demons have seven princes that each represent a sin, here is the same.

Now,

Michael represents the virtue of Humility.

Raphael represents the virtue of Temperance.

Finally, Uriel represents the virtue of Diligence.

Although their names and positions are currently big. In the past when they were just fledging angels who only have one pair of wings, the Heavenly Father brought them to The Devourer to train them as he had a very good relationship with them.

At the time they spent a few thousand years training with him, they got tortured in every possible way, he didn't discriminate between male and female. He just treated them equally when beating them.

After spending a long time training under them, they got very powerful, but of course, not everyone was able to finish the training, a lot of angles at the time quit the training because they couldn't take the training anymore, or the torture if they are allowed to say, but they kept those words in their hearts because they know that if they said they would get beaten for it.

So, silence is a virtue.

Remembering all of these memories made them tremble again silently, even after they reached their current level of power, they were still beaten mercilessly like this.

After he finished checking them thoroughly, Will commented.

"My name is Will, make sure to memorize it," said Will.

Hearing this the three didn't say anything and just bowed toward him while greeting him respectfully.

"Greeting, your highness," said Michael, Raphael, and Uriel said at the same time respectfully.

Although Will doesn't have a kingdom or an empire to be called your highness, he doesn't need one to represent him.

All the old monsters and relics that are still alive now, awake or asleep, knew that Will is a king without the need for a crown to prove his authority, after all, he is the strongest being in Universe.

So calling him your highness isn't a wrong way of greeting him.

Will just nodded indifferently to their greeting and turned his eyes to the only other person in the hall.

"Hey, old man, we need to talk." Said Will with a smile.

"Sure, how long have you been awake?" said The Heavenly father.

"Not long ago, like a month maybe?" said Will with a shrug.

"Then what do you want to talk about?"

"Well, let's go somewhere else to talk."

Saying this both Will and The Heavenly Father disappeared from the dimension and went somewhere else.

As for the three archangels that are currently left in the hall, they just stood there without a change of expression, as if they are used to this scene.

They just each went to do their work.

…..

….

..

.

four days later.

The first circle of Hell, Limbo.

Currently, Max and Hayley have been walking in this forsaken place for the last three days without any change in the scenery around them.

The sounds of souls wailing, the rough terrain, the stuffy atmosphere.

Although the atmosphere would make anyone go crazy if they stayed here for a long time, thankfully it had only been three days, and Will had silently cast a protection spell on those two without them noticing anything, so their mentality won't be affected unless the spell effect run off.

And something like this could only happen if the caster doesn't have enough magic or died, so yeah they are going to be safe even if they stayed here for the remaining of their lives.

During those three days, Hayley after the initial excitement of seeing a new place became bored and grumpy as the air here isn't very good, and the atmosphere is terrible.

Not to add that there isn't anything interesting to see, as they haven't seen any demons.

But for Max, this place is currently a paradise, during those four days, they didn't see any demons, but they saw a lot of demonic beasts from rank 1 to peak rank 3.

So those demonic beasts became a good source of experience for Max to level up, and with the help of Hayley, he managed to take down the rank 3 demonic beasts, after all, they were stronger than him.

Currently, Max's strength increased compared to four days ago.

He finally managed to form a star of Mana in his heart after reaching 200 Mana points in his status. Currently, he is in the next stage which is named Acolyte.

In this stage, cultivators will open their lower dantian by forcing their Mana through specific Mana paths and can form the second star, which represents their physical and mental energy.

At that time, they will have a deeper understanding of their natural abilities and can perform more advanced spells than the first rank in the Mana system, and their past spells will get stronger.

They will also have the limit of their physical body removed, as after reaching a certain level in body strengthening, cultivators won't be able to advance again unless they collect enough Mana to advance.

Of course, all of this has nothing to do with Max, the system manages everything Max gains, so as not to allow anything to go wrong.

And with every level up, his status would increase automatically, and with every increase, his physical strength and Mana would increase without the need to stay in one place and absorb the Mana in the atmosphere and refine it, or the need to keep circulating the Mana according to a Mana technique or Mana breathing way like the other people.

Max's way of advancement could be considered easy and blissful, even Hayley who is beside Max in Hell is dumbfounded by the speed at which he is getting stronger.

Although Max didn't say how, Hayley still noticed that, when he kills a large number of demonic beasts, his strength would increase.

After observing for a while, she has some theories, but as long as she doesn't have any concrete evidence, she will just keep them to herself.

During those four days, Hayley also got to know Max better as a person, and the more she interacted with him, the more comfortable she felt, but Max is still giving her a cold shoulder, even when he asked for her help during the fights.

She didn't take his way of dealing with her to heart as she knows that sooner or later he will open up to her when she keeps pestering him at the right times.

Right now they are waking in the randomly with the hopes of meeting anyone, and thankfully Hayley had a few clocks with her in her space ring to use, as they can't simply go to demons like this and say 'Hey, we came from above' and expect them to welcome them with open arms.

While Hayley was thinking on the side about the recent three days, Max is looking at his new status screen after all these level-ups.
