Chapter 134: B2: C34: Be Very Afraid
Zarian had spoken flippantly to hide some of his concern. He’d known ahead of time that certain paladins, the terrorists specifically, could summon an angel through mass sacrifice.
That was perfectly fine with him as long as the sacrifice didn’t harm the innocent villagers, visitors, and guild members.
He’d allowed High Brother Mason to make the prayer and sacrifice because Zarian was interested in testing himself against a lesser angel. But he’d hoped for something at the top of Tier 3 status regardless of level – which was powerful, but not incredibly destructive.
Arch Cherub Metatron, the Welcoming Voice of Good, was supposedly a low Tier 4, which was highly, highly destructive.
There were uncommon theocratic books in the library that depicted immortal angels like Metatron, which were creatures that roamed the God Land and the Ascended Heavens.
Hannah had checked out relevant holy books from Reiki’s library before the dungeon went to the Blood Prairies with Naomi and Ezda. Hannah had also gathered some intel from Empress Ruvaria while Zarian’s spectral spiders spied on the terrorists.
After Hannah had compiled her research notes and gave Zarian a briefing on what he could face before Operation Dead Terror Parade began, he’d expected something smaller instead of Metatron.
Thus, its summoning by the late High Brother Mason was surprising.
The Arch Cherub, a low Tier 4, could wipe out the entire village and beyond if it could abuse its full power.
