Chapter 71 - The fallen vs faith

Back on the ground below…

"My father is watching over us, so let's make him proud! Let's kill these unholy creatures and show him we are no longer the weak family he needs to protect," Arthur yelled as they charged towards the fallen angels.

Then the battle began…

CLASH! BOOM! CRACK! POW!

Both sides were fighting with everything they had…

"What the hell! We are completely equal in strength, but how?" Arthur asked.

But then Arthur heard a voice in his heart…

"You must have faith child," the voice said.

"Faith. That's it," Arthur said as he realized something.

"Guys, believe in the power that has been given to us, and we will win," Arthur yelled.

Then suddenly, Arthur, Lio, Lyra, and Aelira had a big surge of power…

"No, no, no! It can't be!" one of the fallen angels said in shock.

"They have the power of faith!" another fallen angel yelled.

Then the battle continued, but this time Lio, Arthur, Lyra, and Aelira had the upper hand…

A week passed, and the battle seemed like it was never going to end. Until…

"I guess we have no choice," an angel said as he began to change the weather.

As the angel began to create a thunderstorm, lightning started trying to strike Lio, Lyra, Arthur, and Aelira…

"Watch out for the lightning!" Arthur yelled.

As lightning continued to strike around them, Arthur sped up and started moving faster than the lightning and began heading towards the angels…

Then suddenly, Arthur had a sword appear in his hand…

"Haha, thanks father!" Arthur yelled as he swung the sword, and a divine light covered the battlefield.

As the light dissipated, all that was left in the region of the battle were crumbling buildings and craters where the fallen angels once stood…

"It's finally over," Arthur sighed.

"You guys alright?" Arthur said as he looked back towards Lio, Lyra, and Aelira, laying on the ground.

"Yeah, we're just exhausted," Lio replied.

Then Aerin's avatar appeared…

Well done!

Very well done! I only needed to help a little.

Then Arthur ran and hugged his father tightly…

You did amazing, son.

Then Aelira appeared behind Aerin…

"Haha, you really think you're going to get away with turning our son into a battle-crazed monster," Aelira said, releasing a menacing aura.

I'm dead!

The last thing that was heard from Aerin that day was a loud scream…

The next day…

How many times am I going to have to apologize?

"Till I forgive you," Aelira replied.

In The Multiverse…

So, what is this training?

"Well, it's not entirely training, but rather I'm going to pass my powers down to you," Yuki replied.

What do you mean?

"I'm slowly dying due to a past battle of mine. So I will join the beings in Paradise to rest in one hundred short years," Yuki replied.

I understand. Even us immortals cannot always escape the trials of change.

But what is your power exactly?

"Divine ice, ice that is so pure and so cold that it can freeze Hell and everything in it," Yuki replied.

"Do you want to gain my power and learn to use it?" Yuki asked.

Yes.

"Very well, we will start right away," Yuki replied.

Back on Earth…

"That thank-you ceremony was a drag," Lio said, looking exhausted.

"I get thanking us for saving the world, but a ten-hour speech is insane," Lyra added.

Later that night, Aerin's avatar and Aelira did some extracurricular activities…

Several months later…

"Wa! Wa! Wa!" a baby cried.

Congrats! It's a baby girl!

Well then, what do you want to name her, Aelira?

"Let's see, how about Yu after your old teacher Yuki," Aelira replied.

Yu, I like it.

Years passed, and Arthur turned sixteen and Yu turned nine…

Have a great day at school, you two!

Take care of your sister, Arthur!

"I will!" Arthur yelled back.

"They grow up so fast," Aelira said, hugging Aerin.

They do.

What's next in Aerin's journey? What's next for his family? Find out soon…
