"What was father like..." I asked in the middle of a long walk between me and my brothers. Uriel had flown off to do her own thing, but me and the other two idiots went with a few lower angels to explore more thoroughly of our new home.

The first of 2 heavens so far, was the one we lived in currently, though with the 2 overlords schemes and plans I wouldn't put it past them to relocate me if they thought I was doing any suspicious activity.

Which I was in fact. "Gabriel! My brother, how are you on this divine day" I asked cheerfully looking at my "Brother" with a smile. If there was one thing I was good at back on Earth, it was acting.

I'd killed an entire orphanage pretending to be one of them for 3 months. It was easy, like taking candy... well maybe like taking lives away from a baby?

"H-Hello Lucifer... Sorry for the other day, it was rude and not angel-like at all" Gabriel suddenly said catching me off guard as he apologized for not even doing anything.

'The hell? what a fucking cuck' I thought inwardly sighing as I put my hand on his shoulder trying to keep my smile.

"It's alright Gabriel... there is NO need to apologize, The reason we are on this walk is to advance our relationship as brothers

"Thanks, Lucifer... Father... was a kind god... but he grew greedy. Eventually, he broke his own rules, and now his leadership has come to an end."

After Gabriel's small statement, Michael came back into the small circle and quickly separated us before I could say anything else.

"There are a few dragons here..." Michael said, gaining my attention in an instant. "We will kill them for the supreme ones..."

I already knew we were ahead of the canon timeline. Of course, we were, first heaven had barely been made, but what I didn't know was if The Monkey King had been born yet.

I assumed not since there were no rumors of a monkey with magic, but I still kept an open mind. There was truly no need to stay with the gods, I wouldn't get stronger that way.

My best bet was the monkey king and humans, who would soon appear and start many things that came into play later.

"All we do is kill them right?" I questioned as I had actually been trying to use a new move. It was a new skill I created using greed.

"Yes... just kill them..." Michael said as swords started revolving around him.

I knew these weren't the true dragons. They were shown to be on earth in the webtoon. These things weren't even dragons, but it's what they called them... for now at least.

I was most familiar with the name sky whale, or Leviathan, as said in the webtoon. These were the things that would explode if the army had been dropped in numbers enough. It seemed that they hadn't tamed or started to use them yet.

"You need a sword?..." I said raising my hand as my eyes glowed green, then in the next second, a black sandy-type aura swirled around my arm and shot at one of the sky whales, hitting it directly as it immediately died.

(Life Drain)

I had used Greed to make a skill that would take life force, and let me use it to either attack, heal, or nourish myself. I only had around one thousand years of life, but with this, I could add a few hundred years... I wonder how much I'd get from Tathagata...

No that's a stupid thought, I can't let my own skills influence me and have me make stupid decisions... that's how you get killed...

"What was that?" Michael asked defensively pointing his sword at me. Smiling I swirled the black aura around my body before sending it back down on the whale.

This was the thing I truly wanted from this skill, Necromancy. The art of bringing the dead back to life. The best part is that whoever I brought back to life would be 100% loyal to me... like an excellently trained puppy.

"Just a little something... All us Archangels have something special about us after all" I said smirking a bit.

My only problem was needing a place to put the beings I took under my control. Maybe... Nah that's stupid, I'm not Sung Jin-Woo... but maybe?

Deciding to try something I ordered the whale to disperse... not knowing if it would work, I, quite intelligently I might add, used Gabriel as my body shield, just in case.

"Is there a problem?" Gabriel said looking back at me just as the whale burst into Black particles. Just like that, it swirled into the air and attached itself to my shadow. God, I love this bullshit magic.

"No nothing... guess I'm not strong enough to do what I wanted" I replied, keeping the fact I had brought it back to life a secret. I didn't need attention to be drawn on me.

With one sky whale in my shadow, I decided to forget about the rest, there would be better monsters later if I was lucky... I may even get a god.

"We can ignore the others... they are fleeing," Gabriel said pointing toward the sky as the whales make their way into the divine clouds, their natural home.

It seemed they were just getting some divine energy from the small stream that was there.

As we sat to rest by the stream, Michael finally went off on his own, just me and Gabriel, perfect. I had already decided to get the hell out of here... but first I wanted to see Gabriel's secret, which I, as the ex mafia boss I used to be... believed he had.

"So Gabriel... How's it feel to be at the bottom" I said inwardly smirking. One tactic to making people crack would be insulting them, but this wouldn't be all I did. Oh no, Gabriel would be tormented, mentally tortured, Broke, and cracked in so many ways that he'd finally snap!... god I enjoy this shit too much...
