Witch's Daughter And The Devil's Son Chapter 662 Powerful Angels

Chapter 662 Powerful Angels

Tens of holy figures with white wings appeared above a forest on a mountain, their arrival causing the darkness of the night to seemingly fade away. Despite a large river being in the vicinity, the temperature above the trees was uncomfortably high.

The air was hot and humid, as if an active volcano was nearby and about to erupt. The oppressive heat was enough to bring discomfort to the group of divine beings.

A sharp glint appeared on Petra's eyes as she looked down.

'This power…Finally found you, Sierra's daughter!'

The strong outburst of divine power of the fire element had caused an earthquake. Cracks appeared on the ground, scaring the forest inhabitants and exposing the intricate tunnel of caves underneath.

Petra and her companions sensed the hot, destructive power brewing within the mountain, but it was as if a cold, freezing power was restricting it—or attempting to, to say the least.

Only then did the rest of the angels realize that the purple-eyed child they were seeking for was hiding deep underground.

Petra, who was in the air, raised her hand, silently ordering the angel to split into two groups. One would surround the mountain, while the other prepared to charge together with their leader towards the underground cave.

A smirk of antic.i.p.ation spread across her lips as she noticed how the uncontrollable power continued to fluctuate.

'It is just as the Sovereign expected! They could no longer hide the child from us!'

Petra observed the cold power trying to suppress it.

'Divine power of the water element? As expected, it's that banished deity. To think she can still wield a little, even after she had been stripped of her divinity. But this level is not enough to match even the lowest-ranked angels.

'Hah, Evanthe, how far have you fallen? For the once proud daughter of heavens to succ.u.mb to this level of strength…If I didn't realize you have been helping them from the shadows, I would have thought another angel was tampering with my mission.'

"Petra, what are we waiting for? Shouldn't we head down?" one of the angels wielding a bow asked.

"There is no need to hurry for now. I can sense several auras hiding inside the mountain."

"Then, the more we should hurry and leave. We cannot delay the Sovereign's affairs."

"The power that erupted would soon calm down. It is better if we succeed in our mission without a single casualty."

"But if we give them more time to prepare, a battle might occur and complicate things."

Petra chuckled.

"Worry not.They won't cross the bottomline, or else, they will be exposed to all the G.o.ds in the pantheon who are already displeased at how the former Deity of Earth coveted the h.e.l.lfire which belongs to heaven."

"Our descent is also breaking the heavenly rules," the angel said. "If we stay longer—"

"Rest a.s.sured," Petra said, as she raised a hand, plucking several strings of her harp. A low, solemn sound covered the area, causing time to freeze within that invisible domain. "The Sovereign had lent me her divinity to cover the eyes of heavens. Whatever happens here won't be known by anyone, unless a stronger power than our master interferes."

She raised her hand and signaled the angels next to her.

"Capture the child!"

A female angel wielding a sword came forward and used her power to break the rocky ground, causing that face of the mountain to collapse.

Within the ice cave, Drayce and Evanthe had been busy suppressing Seren's powers when they felt the cave shake, before part of the ceiling collapsed, bringing about a rain of rocks. Several divine powers suddenly erupted from above, causing their bodies to be thrown away as glowing figures with wings swooped down from the broken ceiling.

Seren was still unconscious, floating in the air while surrounded by a sea of flames.

"They found us!"

Without a second thought, Evanthe disappeared from the rubble and reappeared between the intruders and Seren, clearly intent on confronting the tens of figures who stared at her as if looking down at an ant.

Drayce, who had just extricated himself from the broken rocks, glared at those white-winged beings clad in soft armors. Though they were mere youths, their bodies exuded a dangerous feeling, but since they were also emitting pure white light, it made them look like righteous war G.o.ds.

Angels!

"Of course we found you, Evanthe," Petra said as the angles landed on the broken ground.

At this point, the combination of the angels' divinities and the h.e.l.lfire within Seren had caused the ice within the cave to melt into puddles of water.

"Do not resist us, witch," Petra said. "This child belongs to the heavenly realm, and we have come to escort her to where she belongs."

It sounded so nice to the ears, but everyone within the cave knew that Seren would suffer the moment these people laid hands on her. What escorts? They were enemies!

Drayce's eyes had returned to their usual red color, and due to his earlier exertion, his body felt heavy as lead. He was not injured, but more a backlash for using a strength his body was not used to. After all, though he often wielded his power throughout the years, they were mostly simple magic. He had never used as much power as he did tonight even if he combined all those times he used his darkness magic in the past.

As the enemies had found them, there was no use in suppressing Seren's power. Drayce retracted his power suppressing Seren's innate earth magic, intending to stand side by side with his mother and resist these angels.

Drayce went to his mother's side, but the two of them seemed feeble against the tens of angels who looked down on them. Even though they were yet to attack, Drayce could feel that he and his mother's combined strength paled to theirs.

Powerful!

Drayce had never met existences this powerful!

Just their aura was enough to fill his heart with worry.

All he had in mind was to protect Seren, but these angels who arrived were much more powerful than his estimation. If a fight truly occurred, not just his wife, even his mother would probably be in danger.
