away. Helgott decided not to engage in combat and thus began making a run for it. Garridan continued sprinting, now running at a speed no human could. Two of the guards got on his way, trying to stop him, but they were brutally knocked onto the ground by Garridan’s inhuman strength.
He was closing the distance between himself and Helgott very fast, despite the crowds of people on the street. Rage was building inside of him at an alarming rate. When he felt confident enough, he applied all of the energy he had onto his legs and made a leap in Helgott’s direction. The distance he jumped was extraordinary. Helgott turned around at that moment, to check where his enemy was, and saw a leaping silhouette closing in on him from the air. He quickly reacted to produce a swing with his halberd, but, before he even started swinging, Garridan landed on him vehemently. During the impact Garridan pierced his sharp blade through Helgott’s chest and killed him instantly.
As soon as he recovered from the leap and got back onto his feet, he saw lots of guards arriving at his location, surrounding him.
- “End of the line for you.” The guard leader announced, “You have nowhere to go now.”
Azrael and his troop finally arrived at the desired location and landed by the two gateways to the External World. The gateways were massive arcs, towering above the angels, and containing what looked like a swirling grey vortex inside of them. One of them led to the Northern hemisphere of the External World planet, and the other to the Southern hemisphere. Just as Adelais and the others got closer, Azrael stopped and turned to them.
- “Now then, we haven’t been in the External World in a long time. Adelais, I sure hope you remember the key precautions to consider when in the External World.”
- “Yes I do.” Adelais stated confidently, “Our bodies are no longer self-sustaining once we’re there, which means our rate of regeneration is slower, and also if we stay for long, we’ll need to eat, drink, and sleep.”
- “Correct.” Azrael seemed pleased that Adelais remembered it, “This also means that normal wounds would hurt a lot more and could even kill you. That’s why we must be careful when confronting the enemy.”
- “I understand.” Adelais nodded agreeably.
- “There’ll probably be dark angels from other sectors already tracking down our target. We can unite with them, but it’s not necessary. What’s important is that the three of us stick together.” Azrael explained his strategy.
Adelais and Ethel nodded, but didn’t say anything. On that note the three of them stepped to the gateway, leading to the Northern hemisphere, and flew right into it. The moment Adelais found himself inside the vortex, he recalled the bizarre sensation that he felt the last time he went through a gateway to the External World. It was rather unpleasant and made him feel dizzy. However, within seconds he found himself side by side with Ethel and Azrael, being ejected into the skies of the External World at an incredible speed. That boost always helped the angels to reach their target destination in the External World quicker. Unfortunately, the three of them weren’t entirely sure of where they were going. They had to keep flying until they sensed the demonic powers.
- “I think I’ve got it.” Azrael suddenly said, “The perpetrator is in action as we speak.”
- “Lead us to him then.” Ethel responded.
Since Azrael was an angel for many centuries, he was better at sensing the demonic powers than Adelais and Ethel. Lazarus was an exception, however, as he was specialised in the sense ability, but he wasn’t with them at the time, so it was up to Azrael to detect the offender.
Still continuing on with the fraction of the initial boost, they flew in the direction
