974 Chapter 974: Heaven's descent
"Everything is prepared. The Angels will be here tomorrow, and our son will turn ten years old. This is the only time we can complete this."
"Don't forget, the Divine Will is more important than anything, and only our child can."
The King talked to his wife, not realizing that a shadow was watching him from a hidden corner.
"But if we do this, we will lose him." The Woman was trying her hardest to control her tears.
She had known that this day would come for a long time. The moment they had a son, she was already told that this would happen. But now that the time was drawing near, she could not help but hesitate.
"We can't hesitate now. Just one more day, and... Heaven will descend."
....
'Heaven will descend?'
Karyk shrouded the Prince in an illusion and entered the outer region of the city, getting past the guards. However, his mind was still focused on the words of the King.
It was as if the King had planned everything. From their words, and the Queen's sadness, a lot of things were becoming clearer to him.
'So there really is a heaven... Or something that they call heaven.'
In this world, a lot of things had different meanings than what he knew. Even ordinary subordinates of Archangels were called Children of Heaven, so he could not believe that the King meant what he was understanding.
Still, it looked important. The Civilization that was comparable to the Archangels was going to sacrifice their only child to make heaven descent? Just what kind of existence was it?
The more he thought about it, the more confused he became. Was he truly this Prince? He thought that at first, but with each piece of information he was receiving, that thought was looking more unlikely.
Someone had protected him in Elzeira. He thought it was someone from Civilization, but that didn't seem to be the case. They themselves wanted the Prince dead to
achieve their goals. Why would they let him live?
'They need the Archangels for the ceremony as well, and they are planning to have it tomorrow. I suppose a lot of things will become clear by then. I must enter the Palace and see it through.'
