Chapter 8 - the dark essence

The newly formed bodies look even better than that of the two archangels Gabriel and Michael. 

**********

After their new bodies had fully reformed, their souls remained within the Domain of Refinement for another thousand years.

During this time, their souls were subjected to relentless bombardments from several sources of heavenly bodies.

The energy that their souls absorbed was so immense that it could have been used to destroy a newly formed plane.

After what felt like an eternity of enduring the raging energies within the Domain of Refinement, their souls finally gathered all the power they could contain.

Yet even after gathering such immeasurable power, their souls did not immediately return to their bodies.

Instead, the energies within them continued to clash and swirl like raging stars trapped within a fragile vessel.

The Domain of Refinement trembled faintly as waves of celestial power pulsed from their souls.

*****************

Within a celestial domain where the Heavenly Host safeguarded the ancient instruments of heavenly war(The Vault Of Seraphim). The archangel of war stood at the very center of the domains inspecting each and every divine weapon of the armoury without Evan moving from the center I the domain.

"My Lord! " one of the angels of the Heavenly Host exclaimed as he hurried into the domain, his voice echoing through the vast expanse and drawing Michael's attention.

"My lord the Domain of Refinement has become unstable. One of the souls has turned dark"

Immediately after he said that, the face of Michael went from his usual calm expression to dark and aggressive.

" That was always expected" he said, his expression returning to its usual calm expression. "You've done well. Leave the rest to me." he said with smile which he forced out with all this might.

The next second he appeared at the entrance of the domain and entered without wasting any second.

His presence alone reduced the trembling of the domain by half. It was as though a father had come to the aid of his child.

He walked straight to the center, where the souls of Priest and Nisan were being refined.

There he saw a whirlpool of darkness and light intertwined together. though darkness and light couldn't mix, they moved in the same direction and velocity.

Without hesitation, he thrust his hands into the lights and darkness which represented their essence in the domain.

At that very moment, the archangel's consciousness traveled freely in the souls of the duo.

crossing into the domain forged by the intertwined essence. What greeted him was neither darkness, nor light—but a boundless expanse that defied both.

The domain stretched endlessly, a fractured reality woven from memory and fragments of forgotten truth.

Shattered skies hovered above, stitched together by threads of radiant energy, while beneath him flowed an ocean that reflected not his form, but overflowed with countless versions of Nisan—each one bearing a different fate.

"Wait… what's wrong with Priest?"The archangel Michael who stood above the ocean of memories. with his exceptional observation skill, he noticed not a single memory from priest.

"this is quite amusing" he murmured, his voice echoing across realms that had no end.

He took his first step into the unknown. With a single step, the domain responded, the fractured sky paused.

He walked through half of the domain within minutes.

From the horizon, two vessels began to emerge. One of them filled with blinding radiance of holy light, the other filled with darkness beyond comprehension.

The moment the archangel Michael saw the vessel of darkness, he charged with a great speed without putting his surroundings into consideration.

He reached the orb of light first which took the shape of Nisan.

The hands of an angel would never make contact with the souls of any being no matter there rank as an archangel. Michael was no exception from this law.

Left with no othe he kicked the orb of light without any form of hesitation back to the heavenly realm for it not to get corrupted by the dark essence.

Without hesitation he charged to the dark essence once more. This time his calm expression vanished with out a trace and was replaced with a grave expression.

The archangel Michael found a hard time reaching the dark essence. The energy which leaked out of the dark soul was far greater than that of his.
