Chapter 5 - The Attempted Release

Sure, here's an expanded version with more details to enrich the story:

After Angel Green wept following his intense discussion with Angel Shang, he found himself murmuring about the kingdom's recent troubles. The weight of the situation was heavy on his heart. Angel Ching Mo, returning to his duties in the cell, glanced at Green Yul, whose silence was almost palpable.

Concerned, Ching Mo approached. "Is something troubling you, Green Yul?" he asked softly, but Green Yul remained silent, lost in thought.

Just as the angel in charge of the guard was about to return to his post, Angel Green Yul called out to him. "Have you seen Angel Bang Lee?" he asked, his voice barely above a whisper. The guard shook his head, confusion evident in his eyes. Why would Green Yul be asking about Bang Lee at this hour? He wondered, returning to his seat, his mind racing with unanswered questions.

As the guard sat, he pondered the upcoming prayer convention. "Tomorrow," he thought, "I will seize the opportunity to steal the keys to the prisons. I can free Luci Kang's strong man. Maybe Angel Green Yul will join us in the struggle, but even if he doesn't, Luci Kang's strong man will surely defeat the Lord's angels." The plan played out in his mind like a well-rehearsed script.

"My friend Ching Mo, can you call Angel Shang for me?" Angel Green Yul's voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Of course," Ching Mo replied, standing up. As he did, something unexpected happened. A rope hidden beneath his chair was revealed. Angel Green Yul's eyes narrowed with suspicion.

When Angel Shang arrived, he informed Angel Green Yul that the Lord would release him today because of the prayer convention. Relief washed over Green Yul, but his mind was still on the rope he had seen. He pulled Angel Shang close and whispered, "Open the cell gate secretly. I need to monitor Ching Mo." Shang nodded and left to fulfill the request.

"My friend, Angel Green Yul, I am glad you will join us for the convention tomorrow," Ching Mo said warmly.

"Yes, by the grace of the Lord Godhead, I will," Angel Green Yul replied, masking his suspicions with a calm demeanor.

"Blessings to you, my friend. Happy convention day," Ching Mo greeted.

"Same to you," Green Yul responded.

Later, when Angel Shang returned and secretly opened the gate, Green Yul feigned illness. "I am not feeling well and need to sleep," he said. Shang, understanding the plan, gave his consent and left, unaware that the cell was now open. Green Yul pretended to sleep.

"Angel Green Yul, may I join the others for prayer?" Ching Mo asked.

"Go ahead," Green Yul answered, watching Ching Mo leave. After an hour, Ching Mo returned, ostensibly to check on Green Yul, but his true intention was to access the back door leading to the Lord's chambers and collect the keys. After securing them, he returned to confirm that Green Yul was still asleep. Satisfied, he proceeded through the underground passage.

Angel Green Yul followed discreetly to the Fire Lake Prison, hiding behind the central pillar near the gate. He watched as Ching Mo began his secretive work. Behind the pillar, Green Yul found a golden sword and readied himself, waiting to confirm his suspicions.

"Hello, I am Angel Ching Mo, the angel in charge of the guard. I am here for you," he called out. Minutes passed before he shouted again, "Angel Strong, please come to the gate."

"I am here. What do you want?" Angel Strong's voice echoed.

Ching Mo explained the recent struggles within the kingdom, revealing the turmoil and betrayal he felt.

"I was betrayed by Luci Kang, and you expect me to help him?" Angel Strong's voice was filled with disdain. "Let's make a deal. If I come out, I will defeat the Lord's angels, and together, we will overthrow Luci Kang and seize control of the kingdom."

"But master, how can you kill Luci Kang? We are all immortals," Ching Mo questioned, doubt lacing his voice.

"You are unaware of the kingdom's deepest secrets," Angel Strong revealed. "We are three in command: the Godhead, myself, and Luci Kang. After the victory, you will understand everything. Just be loyal."

As Ching Mo prepared to hand over the keys, Angel Strong stretched out his hand. At that moment, Angel Green Yul struck, his golden sword slicing through their hands, and he began dragging Ching Mo away from the Fire Lake. Angel Strong's roar of fury shook the kingdom, alerting the Godhead, who immediately closed the prayer and hurried to the chambers with Angel Shang by his side.

They arrived to find Angel Green Yul, bloodied and battered, dragging Ching Mo. "My son, in whom I am well pleased," the Lord's voice boomed, filled with pride. "I knew you would not let me down. One day, I will free you to Earth."

Angel Shang quickly explained everything to the Lord. The Lord, with a serene yet powerful presence, prayed over Angel Shang and Angel Green Yul, blessing them for their loyalty and courage. Ching Mo was placed in the cell, his fate now uncertain, until further notice.
