Archangel's Seed

Angels, Demons, Dragons and Humans. Put in charge of the affairs of the Heavens were Seven angels known to man as the Archangels or the Hosts of Heaven. Originally seven in number, an eighth archangel was added to the mix. Love is a concept not foreign to the heavenly beings but was forbidden between them and other creatures. But that Law was defied. The eighth Archangel, fell in love with a human. He forfeited his role, power and title as an Archangel to become flesh- a man. But some of the heavenly hosts were unhappy and secretly plotted to end his life. Then, he had a son. And that was when the hosts unleashed war on mankind. The war was brutal. Lives and lands were lost. Families, friends and loved ones were separated from one another. Eventually, the eighth was found out. Or rather, he came out. From the compassion of his heart he sacrificed his life in order to save humanity- including his own son. The mother of the child fled. To preserve the life of herself and the boy, she escaped to another realm, the other side of humanity, away from mythical beings and heavenly bodies, a place called Earth. There, she and the boy were a safe. And they could live a normal life. Fifteen years later, the boy came to know the truth behind his father's death. And he swore, to wage war on the heavens and to avenge his father.

Chapter 42: Knowledge Is Power

Toshirou sat still, trying to recover from the lapse of shock he just had. Just hearing the name of his father's murderer sent chills down his spine. The reality dawned upon him, that he was weak, and was not strong enough to even be in the presence of the angels, much less the Archangel's.

"W-what can I do? I want to become strong... strong enough to say his name... strong enough to fight him... and strong enough to kill him. Please, tell me, what should I do?"

Seeing him plead earnestly earned his approval. Mahalalel was now fully convinced that he was serious about getting retribution for the ones he loves. Seeing the fire spark in the winter-blue-haired teen reminded him of his own youth, and when he was filled with fiery emotions of vengeance and rage. Yet, there was something different about this boy's fire, there was something almost cold about it, that threatened to burn him like a real fire if fully unleashed.
