"Angelo you bastard, how did you manage to destroy this whole city. I swear all three of you just can't do anything without ruining my day."
Angleckia raised his hand as he blocked a kick from Nealo."Well this is interesting you have my essence oh you must be my new son."
Nealo hearing these words immediately jumped back.barely landing on his feet.
"What"
Scarlet then landed beside him.She looked up towards where nealo was staring.She then spoke"Is angelo putting on another disguise."
"I'm not sure I think he's ranking me. He said something about me having his essence and being his new son."
Scarlet then looked at both iodine and Elliot."You two explain."What is there to explain this is our father."Replied iodine.
"Wait, I thought Angelo's dad was lost in the netherworld or something."said nealo."I thought he just came up with a coping mechanism after watching his parents die."
"Well glad to see they get along but hey Elliot should I know about any more children angeli adopted?"
"Well it's complicated.jennifer then spiked up"Wait so you're just fine with your son going around adding new members to your family."
"Well it's just common practice when I grew up my dad would raise me alongside children that he and my mother found granted this was two millennia ago so things may have changed."
"Wait that's explains why malika kept picking kids up off the street."Said Eruda as he scratched his chin.
"Wait who the heck is malika and two millenia."You two really haven't noticed the girl floating in mid air."said iodine as he pointed over towards malika.
"Wait she looks familiar."Scarlet then started to contemplate on where she had seen malika before.
"Wow, did these two really fall out this bad? They were like best friends and they did everything together. How long did it take?"
"Approximately twenty minutes after you go sent back to the netherworld."replied
iodine.
"Okay so I'm guessing someone tried to kill someone based on the fact that holi's physical body is fused with her instead of with angelo."
Elliot then responded"Yeah angelo also lost his emotions and went full on authoritarian dictator on us and almost forced aluro to sever space time to open a gate to the netherworld."
"Wow did he really miss us that much."No I don't think so he mentioned something about becoming perfect and."Iodine froze in place as he started to tremble.
Angleckia grabbed him."I understand damn maybe I should have listened to your grandpa when he said so many cards being randomly created by Angelo while he was losing control was not a coincidence."
"Okay I gotta stop drinking, this is my crazy hallucination yet."said Jennifer as she sipped a glass of wine.
"Wait your angelo's dad so you must know what dies the book actually do?"Yes but I'm not just Angelo's dad I'm also both your fathers as well."
"What!"Angleckia watched nealo and scarlet stare at him in shock."Was that too soon"Yeah I'm guessing it was."replied Elliot.
"This has to be the strangest family I've ever seen."Said Neruda."Well you wouldn't be wrong in that assumption."Said Elliot.
"Is that really angelo's dad."Said elric as he rubbed his head."Well considering how both him grandma and mom describe him Yep that's him.
A kind man that has zero emotional intelligence."Said Elisa."Honestly that's exactly how Angelo is."
"No runea that's angelo would be if he wasn't able to read the feelings of everyone around him."
"Wait, is that why he gave us the ability to summon you all?"asked Mina."Yes, Angelo has a way of helping people and making it seem like a coincidence."
Ethan then spoke"That sounds useful but kinda useless at the same time"I wish that was all he could do, his abilities are quite annoying to adapt."
All seven kids turned around and were surprised to see Angleckia standing behind them."You all should keep your guards up u could have killed you all exactly five thousand three hundred and fifty five times."
"With stealth like that, no wonder Angelo said he developed being a light sleeper because of you,"said Elisa.
"Light sleeper to you I could move in and out of his room a million times and he wouldn't notice. In fact Malika almost killed him in his sleep thirty different times."
"Wait, who's Malika?"asked Elisa as Angleckia suddenly gained a look of realization.You two are Elania's kids glad to see things worked out between her and semis."
"You mean our dad."Yeah who else would I mean little Elania."My name is Elisa."Sorry I didn't overhear your names and you are."
"My name is elric."The others proceeded to introduce themselves as Angleckia nodded, recording each of their names in his memory.
"Alright enough with the introductions, spill the tea on that malika girl."Mira it's rude to dig up people's business sir please spill the tea.
Angleckia then spawned a chair from thin air.Okay so basically Malika and angelo were childhood friends but they could not stand each other.
Very few people could ever get under Angelo's skin and by very few I mean only malika so they had a feud.
And were always annoying eachother until one day malika got rude of angelo's playing cards angelo did not like this so he did the only thing he could.
He trapped her cat nosra which angelo's mom had gifted to her in a cave to lure malika into fighting a dragon when she thought she'd fight a catbear
"What's a cat bear."Don't interrupt Ethan now so after that basically nisra almost died and so did angelo ever since then.
She has attempted to kill him in his sleep over two hundred times so much so that Angelo developed constant spatial awareness and could sense when even the trajectory of being changed was caused by the presence of an ant."
"That does not sound healthy at all."said mina."Eh nothing would come of it malika could have killed angelo several times never went through with it but the fact he thought she would make us realize it could be added to his punishment and training."
"What if she did kill him?"asked Elisa."They both move like ants to me. By the time it took her to go through with it I'd have them on opposite sides of the city."
"So his mom was just casually okay with her son being in constant fear for his life."No, she thought it was good training but if any of the kids got hurt I would be living in constant fear for my life."
"Where did you even raise him?"asked Rachel."Wait nisra isn't she the cardigan who can transform into a cat."said runea.
"Yeah she is, I thought Angelo would have mentioned it damn was the falling out really that bad."
"Well considering holi had a literal mental breakdown and almost killed us because angelo chose dirty humans over her was an indication that the fall out was really bad."Said Jennifer who appeared beside Angeleckia
"I'm guessing Angelo didn't win considering life still exists here."What do you mean by that?"asked mina and mura simultaneously.
"No he did not win"said iodine.said Jenniferas everyoneturned to her"You seem so calm about all this information do you even care about your son."
Angleckia sighed.That's a question that's easy for me. Yes I do care about my son but do I care about angelo or do I care about what angelo is that's the true question I'll never be able to answer."
Everyone around including the two cardigans were confused as the sound of two hands clapping together could be heard.
All of them turned their heads to the source of these claps as they saw a man with golden eyes, long golden hair wearing a crown sitting on the building across from them.
As much as I would love to see you get to know his little toys, unfortunately grandfather you were summoned to deal with business."
Angleckia drew his sword, appearing in front of the man in an instant and swinging his blade to decapitate the thing in one fell swoop.
"Is that how family is greeted."The man's blood then splattered on the ground as his head laid flat on the ground.
"Give me one reason I shouldn't destroy you right here and now."Well on top of returning to a primal state where I have no consciousness or will, angelo will officially fall to that force just like you once did.
Like father, like son and that does for all three of you."Angleckia sheathed his blade as the man's head disintegrated before regarding in his body.
"Does it amuse you my blood on the ground you like it don't you it's not quite right but I figured you'd like it.
Maybe it'll satiate your hunger so you don't take his head as well."Angleckia then stabbed his blade through the man's chest as his eyes glowed with fury and rage.
"Yes yes be what you meant to be a mad tyrant who destroys and kills that's all you can be afterall your no different than your."
Angleckia then grabbed the thing by the neck as he stared at him deep in his eyes."Say another word and I'll show you why me and you are not cut from the same cloth now tell me what's going on with my son."
The man smiled as he nodded.Ofcourse sir I am a servant of chaos afterall."Angleckia let go of the thing as the others came over confused.
Iodine then spoke "Don't worry that's not a person it's."A nobody I'm nobody."Tell me what's the condition with my son."
"Ofcourse as you may have guessed he has awakened."What is he talking about?"asked Eruda.
"Eruda don't even ask anymore it's not worth it."I swear this is all so confusing."Iodine who was carrying the unconscious aluro then stated.
"The embodiment of mind, soul and destiny."As these words were said the sky began to turn crimson red as in the codex realm anancy awoke with alex beside him.
