Chapter 9 On One Condition
"I shall accept my method of discipline... but... one condition." I said looking directly at Senyoryte Auriel. I saw amusement shine in her eyes when I said the last part.
"Loretta!! How dare you? You, a mere Angel dare to ask for a condition to accept your own method of discipline when you should be thanking the JINUA for giving you such a light discipline." Masiera Pavilon said as he stood up.
'did he just call my disciplinary method a light one. I would have loved to argue further with him but today I had a different target: 'Senyoryte Auriel'. I greatly wondered why 2nd Heaven would be in such a state when God's favourite child, his own daughter had been ordained over the place.' I thought.
"Masiera Pavilon, please we are in the Sacrum Cor." Senyoryte Auriel said eyeing him. "let's hear it." She said looking at me.
"I shall accept my method of discipline after a private conversation with Senyoryte Auriel." I stated grinning at her. She raised her eyebrows as if to ask, 'is that it?'
"do you think it will be helpful for you in any sort of way? If those are your intentions there's no need-"
"I shall not accept the disciplinary method given to me if my condition is not met with." I stated knowing she would have to agree to my terms. Masiera Pavilon looked like his anger was being held by a thread, I liked it.
"I am sure you are well aware that if you decide not to accept your disciplinary method, you will no longer be an Angel." Ladicae Lailah said. I was well aware of it but I knew it wouldn't reach that extent. Silence persisted for a while and I was waiting for Senyoryte Auriel to give in. There was no how that she wouldn't mind losing an Angel.
"your condition will be met with, only if you first accept your method of discipline." She said, her eyes daring me.
'there was no way I would serve it, it was an unreasonable method for what I had done which was 'stating facts'. I wasn't going to spend the next decades of my life trying to get back here which is extremely hard. Being sent out and coming back isn't like suspension from school it's like being in a coma and trying to get out. But what if I refused and she doesn't accept my terms, it looks like this is the best shot I might get.' I thought critically.
"I accept." I said with gritted teeth.
"document." Ladicae Lailah said and one of the female Archangel took the document from her and handed it over to me with a pen. She used her powers to create a tall table from the ground to enable me to sign the document. I wrote my full name 'Rebellis Tarente Loretta', signed the document and she put the table back to the ground. The female Archangel took the document and pen and gave it to Ladicae Lailah. Ladicae Lailah checked it and nodded to Senyoryte Auriel.
"Take her to my premises, I still need to see to somethings before I'll be free." Senyoryte Auriel said and I didn't object feeling it will be better to have the conversation at her residence. This time, I wasn't dragged out of the hall but was led out by one female and one male Archangel. When we got out of the building, I was informed that Senyoryte Auriel' residence was not connected to any road as most of the high places aren't, so we were going to fly there. We headed to the cliff surrounding the building away from the sight of the road and the female Archangel took flight. I spread my white wings and joined her and so did the male Archangel. The sight was truly beautiful, I couldn't help but admire it.
'it would make a beautiful painting' I thought. While scanning the area as we flew, I noticed we were approaching a high land. 'that is surely Senyoryte Auriel' residence' I thought. As we got nearer, I saw a mansion, a cottage, a garden, two fountains. The sight of the place was indescribable, it looked as if I had entered 1st Heaven. We landed at the entry of the garden and my wings folded. the female Archangel led the way and the male Archangel was behind me like earlier. Once we got out of the garden, I marvelled over the full sight of the palace-like mansion.
"this way." The female archangel said and gestured to the steps, pulling me out of my trance. The male Archangel was nowhere to be seen. I started the stairs anxious to know what the inside looked like.
When we got to the top of the stairs and we're getting nearer to the grand double doors, they opened. The inside was nothing like I expected, it was just like Senyoryte Auriel; golden and black. The black and gold had an indescribable connection. I had a premonition that the black was a stain on her, like her sin. It refused to leave her alone and had settled down in her life, staining her making her impure. I wondered how great the gravity of her sin was that it had not only made her end up here but was also evidently showing on her. The sitting room was massive and beautifully designed, it had one recliner, two armchairs, two chaise lounges, one love seat, one three-seater sofa, two occasional and one coffee table, and so much more. The female Archangel went further inside and I followed her. after the sitting room was the corridor which led to a circular staircase. We stopped to the second floor and went through the corridor to a room which had the words 'MEETING ROOM' engraved on it. She let me into the room. Everything inside the room was gold and black, it had a table, a head chair and two other chairs, it also had a wardrobe, a shelf and a four-seater which acted as the waiting chair.
