Chapter 114: The Battle Against Seraphiel, The Betrayed
(Henry's POV)
The world blurred around me as I activated Celestial Blink, my body vanishing from the streets of Oslo and reappearing deep within an isolated forest.
The air was thick with divine energy, but it was corrupted, twisted with something darker.

A low, gravelly tone, filled with anger and exhaustion.
"Another one has come to take my head?"
