So I'm a sheep.

What an amazing gadget!

The Titan King, whose strength was generally considered inferior to Heimra's, was immediately defeated by the Holy Angels the moment he unleashed that bell.

"With such a powerful artifact, why didn't he use it before?"

Sasha naturally raised this question. In the past, the Titans' offensives were always dealt with by the Holy Angel Heimra, and in the battles with the Titan King, this princess always had the upper hand.

So here's the question: if he possesses such a powerful artifact, why does the Titan King always keep it hidden?

“A forbidden artifact, if it could be used easily, would not be forbidden.”

Lucia said in a deep voice, "An ancient prophecy circulates within the Titan pantheon: when the death knell tolls for the eighteenth time, a great king will fall."

"Over the long years, that death knell has tolled eight times, and with the recent injury to Prince Heimra, it has tolled nine times!"

"..."

No wonder! It turns out that bell was a death knell for the Titan King! It would be strange if he used it so easily.

But, it's an ancient prophecy...

After learning that her best friend was trapped by prophecy, Sasha became particularly averse to such things.

The girl pouted and said, "It's just a bizarre prophecy, and the Titan King actually believed it."

"Prophecy is a very scary thing, especially prophecies that have been passed down from distant times."

Sasha dismissed the prophecy, but Lucia was very wary of it.

"According to authoritative investigations in the celestial realm, more than half of all the fallen chief gods throughout history are deeply connected to certain terrifying prophecies!"

"In other words, the greatest cause of the downfall of the supreme god was—prophecy."

"That's too idealistic of you."

Sasha couldn't help but laugh and said, "When you think that the fall of the supreme god is related to prophecy, you will unconsciously think in that direction."

"Sigh, there's more and more boring stuff on the Celestial Network these days."

“It’s not some trivial thing, it’s an authoritative investigation.” Lucia emphasized the word ‘authoritative’.

"Haha, which authority is it? I'll go talk to her when I have time."

"Humph!"

Seeing Lucia puff out her cheeks, Sasha stopped teasing her.

"Alright, alright, I know how terrible the prophecy is. The Titan King was determined to defeat Prince Heimra even if it meant the bells rang once, so he must have been forced into a corner."

"The battle is at a stalemate. His Highness Heimla originally intended to break through the Titans' defenses, but unexpectedly..."

Shaking her head, Lucia said sadly, "The war between angels and demons is coming to an end. Although the heavens have not suffered a great loss in general, considering the cause of the war, this ending is not exactly glorious."

A legion commander from the Celestial Realm perished due to the machinations of the Demon Kings. In this great battle, the Celestial Realm withdrew prematurely without killing any demons of legion commander rank.

It started strong but ended weakly, nothing special!

What's most frustrating is that Titan still seems determined to fight to the end, showing absolutely no fear of the Celestials.

If the Titan King is not forced to withdraw his troops soon, the position of the Supreme God Order faction will be shaken.

"Mother Goddess"

While Sasha and Lucia discussed the aftermath of the war, the Archangel Heimra visited the central temple.

Her face was sickly pale, but her tone was unusually calm.

"The power of the Death Knell is beyond imagination. If the Titan King disregards everything, his daughter may perish."

You will not perish.

The goddess's kind voice rang out: "Heimla, come closer."

The angel walked to the goddess as instructed, and the goddess rose and touched Heimra's right shoulder with her slender fingers.

Unable to suppress a muffled groan, the Holy Angel's injuries were immediately relieved after the stinging pain subsided.

"Thank you, Mother Goddess. Now I can face the Titan King in my full strength."

"only......"

"Between you and me, what can't we say directly?"

"..."

"My daughter thinks the Titans are superfluous."

Heimra lowered his head slightly: "Times have changed. In the past, Purgatory was a disorganized mess and had no power to exert much pressure on the Celestial Realm. Therefore, the domineering Titans became our opponents."

"But now, the fivefold purgatory can be seen as a whole."

“If Mother Goddess doesn’t intervene, my sisters and I will have a hard time dealing with those demon kings, and with the addition of the Titan King… Heaven will be in dire straits.”

After waiting for a while without hearing a response from the goddess, the Holy Angel gritted her teeth and said, "I think either we should find another opponent for the Titans to achieve balance, or we should let the Titan race completely perish!"

After an unspoken silence, the goddess finally spoke.

"Heimla, go and borrow troops from Hill, and let Army VI accompany you on the expedition."

VI Army?

After Rodrian's fall, the VI Army had become the weakest of the first-order legions. Why should the VI Army accompany him on the expedition?

Despite her doubts, Heimla immediately replied respectfully, "Yes!"

Volume 1: Chapter 472 Old Classmate

“Sasha, although you haven’t officially become the legion commander yet, you’re already considering things from that perspective.”

After a long talk with her favorite angel, Lucia remarked with some emotion.

Sasha would never have cared about the aftermath of a war before, but now she is worried that the Celestial Realm's influence within the Order faction will diminish.

"You should consider things based on your position. What use was it for me, a mere angel, to worry about important matters in heaven?" The girl shrugged.

"If Ms. Bernice could see Sasha now, she would be very pleased!"

Upon hearing this, Sasha suddenly shuddered.

It is extremely unusual for a seraph of her power to have such a reaction.

"What happened to Ms. Bernice?!" the girl blurted out.

"Our teacher passed away five and a half years ago."

Lucia said sadly, "I wanted to say it from the beginning, but I just couldn't bring myself to say it."

"My sister, the young lady, and I all went to see the teacher. Coco later also contacted the pantheon and came over herself..."

Sasha's mind went blank, and she didn't hear a word Lucia said after that.

Teacher, she's gone?

How could that be? Professor Bernice is a chief angel! Chief angels have very long lifespans, she shouldn't have left so early!

"Teacher, how could she... Coco has already healed your wounds, could it be... could it be that you went to the battlefield?"

Shaking her head, Lucia said softly, "Coco did heal the teacher's old wounds, but while the wounds are healed, the life that was lost can never be brought back."

"The teacher did not go to the battlefield; her time had come."

"..."

Sasha's tears streamed down her face. Bernice was the only teacher she truly respected and the elder she admired most.

However, he didn't go to see her before she left!

.............................................

"Suck--"

"Ms. Bernice, when you went to visit her, did she mention me?"

"kindness!"

Lucia nodded vigorously: "Of course Ms. Bernice asked about you. She's very worried about you."

“I told the teacher that Sasha, you are highly valued by His Highness Hill and are currently carrying out a secret mission for the Holy Angels.”

"I also said that Sasha, after you come back from your mission, you will become the legion commander."

"Teacher, well, Ms. Bernice doesn't believe me at all. She says I'm just teasing her."

The angel wiped away her tears: "My sister said it's true, Sasha really is something special."

"Sister, my sister said she was going to drag you over, but I didn't tell her where you were. The teacher also stopped her with a smile, saying, saying that she couldn't delay your work, sob sob sob."

Sasha was heartbroken upon hearing this, and she burst into tears.

"Where is the teacher? I'm going to see her right now!"

"To the east of our classroom, across that stream, there is a small garden where our teacher is laid to rest."

"kindness"

Without saying anything more, Sasha immediately rushed out.

After passing through several teleportation arrays, the girl arrived at that familiar demiplane.

The sound of a lesson being taught could be heard coming from the classroom, so it seems a new teacher has been assigned here.

Not intending to disturb the archangel, Sasha concealed her presence and found the garden.

"..."

Bernice's tombstone is there, surrounded by bouquets of flowers.

"teacher......"

The light of life condensed into a small red flower that would never wither, and Sasha placed it in front of the tombstone.
