Chapter 1340: Chapter 446: Papal State, Pope_4

"Go back, the people inside are with me, no need for such a fuss, everything is under control."

The authority has spoken, and the two angels dare not say more, returning to Heaven immediately.

Before leaving, they cursed out the contractor severely.

Look at the mess you’ve caused, I almost bared my teeth at that master just now, and that’s a serious crime! x2

The hierarchy of angels is clear, with three main levels in Heaven, each divided into three ranks. At the top are the four Seraphs, who hold supreme authority.

Baring teeth is a serious crime, you can imagine the consequences for Heya, who is always frowning and using coarse language, even if Hexuno shows great understanding. Returning to Heaven, she would face endless troubles.

She’s done for.

The two contractors holding the Golden Rule Bible reported the incident to the Pope immediately, and almost instantly, Pope Risa arrived at the small chapel.

This was a kindly old man with silver hair and a vigorous spirit, clad in a white and gold papal robe; his hands, hidden in sleeves, had notably large knuckles, suggesting formidable fist power.

Understandable, in the Magic Realm, where endless glory gathers, those in power without fist power have no voice at all.

But at this moment, Pope Risa’s face was only filled with simplicity, at first glance, he seemed like an honest old chap.

He hunched forward in a small run, coming before Wayne, placed a hand on his chest in salute, and said excitedly, "Mister Wayne, when did you arrive at the Papal State? My subordinates were not informed; this is a serious lapse on my part."

Risa recognized Wayne; all seven Reincarnated Angels had files, and it wasn’t hard to get Wayne’s photo since he’d even made movies.

The file on Wayne was complex, a mix of good and bad.

The good was that he frequently opposed Devils, often being the first to charge into battle. Wherever there were Devils or Hell Gates, Wayne would be seen.

The bad side was simpler; it involved his private life.

Risa once tried to deduce Wayne’s true name in Heaven through a series of operations after his awakening, attempting hundreds of analyses to no avail.

Wayne’s nature was inscrutable and elusive, a truly unpredictable Angel.

Not being able to understand Wayne wasn’t a problem; Risa speculated through Uriel’s actions that Wayne held a certain position in Heaven and boldly guessed he might be a Seraph representing the Seven Virtues.

In total, there are three Seraphs representing the Seven Virtues, with two already descended and awakened: Kiraal representing Temperance, and Vikul representing Mildness.

Wayne seemed to fit as Milia representing Diligence.

Fitting indeed, as his private life did align with the attribute of Diligence.

No matter what his diligence was applied to, at least he was diligent, right!

Even if just for one thousand steps back, Wayne was more diligent in combating Devils than anyone else, never missing a roll call, not once absent.

However, as to whether he truly was the Seraph Milia, a conclusion couldn’t be reached just yet.

According to the Bible’s description, Milia tended to be female and considering Auga and Frey’s reincarnations, Wayne should also be biologically female.

Risa lowered his head and prepared to find out clearly today.

The old guy’s acting skills were truly impressive, almost comparable to mine!

Wayne thought to himself, those who achieve great deeds must possess acting skills. He felt a mutual understanding with the Pope, and today they finally met face to face.

However...

The small white mustache under the Pope’s nose looked particularly conspicuous.

"Your Holiness, the fault is not yours, but mine, coming uninvited, disturbing the peace of the Papal State. I hope you don’t blame me." Wayne smiled in return.

"No, no, no, a failure is a failure, you may visit suddenly, but I should be prepared; the fault lies with me, for being unprepared," Risa replied hastily.

After some small talk, Risa grew curious about Wayne’s identity. Seeing he remained silent, he turned and asked, "Mister Wayne, Pedro and the other Reincarnated Angels are in Lundan, why have you returned alone?"

Not reached an agreement, changed houses?

"You’re talking about Uriel, right? That guy’s head is full of a desire for power, only calmed down after a good beating."

Wayne pouted, seemingly recalling something, and laughed, "I can’t tell you that part, you’d better pretend you didn’t hear it."

Risa bent even lower, showing considerable deference: "It was presumptuous of me, may I ask... may I ask Your Excellency’s true name in Heaven?"

He used his bow as a cover for the shock on his face, calling Uriel outright and showing contempt, Wayne wasn’t a Seraph; he was a Seraph equivalent to Uriel.

Who exactly was he? From the sarcasm in his words, it didn’t seem like he was Lar, who represents Tolerance, and his casual arrogance didn’t match Michael, who represents Humility.

Then who could it be?

What, could it be Hexuno, who represents Purity?

Tsk, this joke didn’t hit the mark; it was perfectly on point, making it impossible to laugh.

Risa would rather believe Wayne was Vice-Regent Michael than Hexuno. Otherwise, if Wayne were Hexuno, the old man would be in big trouble.

He had sent a Nun to Purity, and they hit it off.

This act would warrant a roasting rack in Heaven or a personal award from the Seven Demon Lords in Hell. Just thinking about it made Risa sweat profusely.

"Covered in sweat, right?"

Wayne snorted twice, "Risa, right? Pope, right? Old man, you’re in trouble!"

"I... I request Your Excellency’s guidance."

"Being among ourselves, I won’t hide it from you. Anyway, Uriel and the others all know..."

Wayne revealed the stigmata on his tongue, then said with a tone full of nuclear power, "My true name in Heaven is Hexuno, Seraph, one of the Four Archangels, representing Purity among the Seven Virtues. So, do you understand?"

✟✟✟

The world spun before Risa’s eyes, and he felt the Crucifix descending from above, striking him squarely on the head.

"Gulp!"

"Don’t gulp just yet, I haven’t finished speaking."

Wayne raised his hand to blow on his nails, speaking leisurely, "Do you know why Frey hit you last time? She is my subordinate in the Kingdom of Heaven and knew who was responsible for my loss of Purity, so she gave that person a beating."

"Before awakening, I maintained a pure mind and body, free from worldly desires, and you dared to send the Nun Mona to me by vile and shameless means, under the guise of an assistant secretary."

"Don’t think I don’t know, that Crucifix had problems, you guided Mona to develop a possessive desire towards me and manipulated my subconscious longing and craving for the Holy Light, causing me to lose my purity the very night Mona held the Crucifix."

"I broke the code, ran wild down the path of impurity, and when I awoke, I was surrounded by beauties..."

"After considering it all, regardless of the facts, the fault lies entirely with you; you are the real Devil. As for sins, the Seven Demon Kings are just minor players compared to you; you’re a thousand times stronger than them."

"..."

Risa was dumbfounded, wanting to ask, leaving aside the facts, was the Archangel entirely blameless?

If the Archangel wasn’t tempted, could a disguised Crucifix pendant and an obedient virgin nun have ensnared him?

Ridiculous, which Archangel couldn’t withstand such a test?

Uriel did, before awakening, he was celibate; after awakening, he was oblivious to women, that was true lack of worldly desire.

The Pope wanted to ask if it was possible that the Seven Virtues, and what they state, were no different from daily slogans, only for shouting out loud, meaning Hexuno representing Purity ≠ Hexuno was a pure angel?

"Oh, you still dare glare, glare one more time and see what happens!"
