"I have been waiting for you for a long time, Gabriel."
An incomparably gentle voice echoed beside Gabriel's ears. Feeling the Lord's gaze fall upon her, Gabriel's posture of prayer became even more devout.
"My Lord, I am here."
The moment Elise called Gabriel's name, she immediately flapped her wings and came before Elise.
However, so that the Lord before her could observe her more easily, Gabriel deliberately flew to a position several body lengths lower than Elise. In the past, this was how she had faced the God of the Bible.
Although she did not understand Elise's circumstances, she decided to act this way for the time being.
"Come closer, Gabriel. There is something I need to tell you."
How should she treat Heaven and the angels?
Elise had originally intended to maintain the disguise and pretend to be God's reincarnation, but after meeting Ophis, she changed her mind.
Top-tier powerhouses could see through the problem!
Then would angels like Michael and Gabriel, who had been close to the God of the Bible, also notice something wrong with Elise?
If she deceived them, it would become difficult to resolve matters later. After repeated consideration, Elise decided to tell the truth.
Although she still had to tell them the cruel truth that God had fallen, at the very least, honesty might increase the angels' goodwill toward her.
Seeing that Gabriel had already flown in front of her, Elise also floated upward and opened her arms.
"Come here, Gabriel. You will understand in a moment."
Does she want me to embrace her?
Feeling the familiar aura of the God of the Bible emanating from Elise, Gabriel knew it could not possibly be faked. Moreover, she truly could not refuse God's command.
Thus, without the slightest hesitation, she threw herself directly into Elise's arms.
The two had similar hair colors, though Elise's was more radiant. Their figures were also similar, and the instant they made contact, their ample breasts even bounced against each other several times.
The embrace between two such beauties was truly a feast for the eyes. Unfortunately, the only one able to witness the scene was Ophis, who stood not far away.
As for the angels Gabriel had brought with her, they were not yet permitted to look directly upon the Lord's radiance, so they hovered below with their heads lowered.
As for the two embracing each other...
What should have been a reunion after a long separation changed the instant Gabriel came into contact with Elise, as her entire body stiffened.
Through such direct contact, Gabriel sensed the condition within Elise's body and understood what Elise wished to tell her...
Gabriel was one who stood closest to God!
That also meant Gabriel was the existence in this world closest to the God of the Bible!
Her duty was to serve as the bridge between God and the angels!
No one possessed a deeper understanding of God's power than Gabriel!
Had it been Michael, Uriel, or Raphael, they truly would not have been able to sense the power within Elise's body in this way.
"I understand what you mean..."
The instant Gabriel sensed the anomaly, she understood what Elise intended to say, and her expression immediately became sorrowful.
God had already fallen...
She had originally sensed God's power and believed there was nothing wrong with Him, so she had rushed out in excitement. But now...
She had received even more definite confirmation that God was dead!
Gabriel's heart was filled with incomparable grief, but in the next second, that sorrow disappeared from her face.
Of course, this did not mean Gabriel had chosen to forget. As one of Heaven's Seraphim, she could not reveal her emotions carelessly, especially in a public place like this.
Moreover...
After despair, hope would follow close behind.
Did the appearance of the person before her not prove precisely that?
Feeling the warmth of the person in her arms, Gabriel slowly released her hands and took two steps back, intending to look directly into Elise's eyes to understand her. However...
A strip of black cloth blocked her view.
Gabriel: "..."
"My apologies!"
Gabriel bowed slightly to express her apology, and Elise felt the sincerity of Gabriel's emotions from directly in front of her.
She had to admit, that apology was truly substantial, and the sensation was rather pleasant.
"There is no need to apologize. I am not blind. I merely cover my eyes for certain special reasons."
"However, you must have many questions you wish to ask, correct?" Elise smiled faintly and looked toward the angels below. "Let us first find somewhere quiet. I will tell you the truth."
"I understand!"
How should she put it?
Gabriel sensed no hostility whatsoever from Elise, no deception, nor any sense that she was treating Gabriel differently from others.
The way Elise spoke was like that of an ordinary friend, and this also gave Gabriel some suspicions of her own...
As expected of the person chosen by the Lord!
After Gabriel arrived, Elise dispersed the aura she had been imitating.
Since the one she had been waiting for had already arrived, anyone else who came would only be trouble. Elise had no reason to wait for trouble to find her.
Afterward, Elise left with the group of angels and Ophis.
As expected, not long after they departed, countless figures appeared in the area, hoping to uncover some trace of what had happened.
Unfortunately, they could only return empty-handed.
...
The aura of the God of the Bible vanished not long after appearing, but the shock Their appearance brought to the world did not disappear with it.
Many factions were terrified after sensing that familiar aura and prepared to dispatch people to investigate the cause. After all, that existence was the God of the Bible, a monster on the same level as the Infinite Dragon God and Great Red!
However, under Elise's manipulation, she had left behind no openings whatsoever. They were destined to discover nothing.
It was worth mentioning that although every pantheon in the world was nervous, the ones most worried were undoubtedly the fallen angels and devils.
After all, both belonged to the biblical pantheon. How could they possibly not understand how terrifying the God of the Bible was?
If they did not quickly think of a solution, they might end up being purified!
The fallen angels might fare somewhat better, since they had once been angels...
But the devils would undoubtedly be exterminated completely. After all, in God's definition, devils were evil.
"Report. We... found nothing."
"There is still residual power of light on the ground. Quite a few devils were injured by the lingering aftershocks while investigating..."
After investigating for so long, they had still obtained only this answer. The high-class devil leading them was so enraged that he stamped his feet.
"Useless! Every last one of you is useless!"
Although he cursed the devils for being incompetent, there was nothing he could do either. Even the residual power remaining in the town below could effortlessly annihilate devils like them.
Several high-class devils had even been reduced to ashes...
"No! We must report this to our superiors immediately!"
