Resolve

Sometime before the fight

Maria POV

After convincing mercy to help, the rest was easy.

I just had to make her look like me, it was a technique I learned in the house of God.

The house of God is a domain owned by the angel's top clan 'Michael'.

Based on our history we are said to be descendants of a great angel known as Micheal, who's one of the top angels under our God.

So our clan was named after him, and all the core and important members of the clan got that name, in short anyone staying in the main castle has that name on them.

Back to the main topic, the house of God is a domain that has existed for many years, to be more precise it is said to have existed at the beginning of our clan, and also the place where promising youth go to train.

This is the first time I am showing someone my technique other than Liam, since I have decided to trust her I don't see any problem in going all out with this.

Starting the process I shaped her whole appearance to look exactly like mine not leaving a single detail out of the equation.

Without wasting much time I shaped myself to look like her.

After finishing the procedure I asked her to act exactly like what she was good at.

Letting her leave the room, I followed shortly behind heading to one of Mercy's joints where she was always seen.

Going through everything well so as not to be suspected, after spending a little time at her joints I followed a hidden pathway out of heaven.

It was a pathway I used as a kid when I want to see outside of my home, without wasting time I sped towards my destination.

Currently Outside heaven

authors POV

Maria was shocked and scared, she knew if Mary got here her whole plan would be for nothing.

That's how strong she was, that not even Liam and her combined can leave a scratch on her body.

Due to her innate abilities, she could feel her pressure, and the gap was closing very fast.

Peak low rankers were scary, for her to cover such distance in seconds only shows a little of how strong she is.

Without thinking much Maria gave a punch filled with power to mark (her father) crushing his skull.

She started running at full speed toward her destination hoping to at least meet up with mark before facing Mary.

To her dismay, a blanket of pressure covered her without giving her a chance to think or run.

"I knew something was wrong," said Mary with no emotion or so on her cold face.

"Why did you do this?" she continued, removing her eyes from the corpse to look at Maria.

"You are fast, I guess I will have to go all out even if I die in the process," she said, sounding resigned to her fate and determined to face it.

"So I was right, the father of that child is that demon kid," Mary said.

Saying Maria was shocked would be a lie, though she could feel Liam coming it was due to their connection.

'Is that really how powerful they are' she thought clenching her fist.

"I would like to see what you two will create, but as we all know the child won't survive, right?" Mary said

Maria POV

I don't know how to reply to her words, not because am scared of her, but because what she said is true.

Demons and angels are very different species and also powerful.

Many have tried mixing their genes to create monsters.

But as history and all I have researched tell none of those experiments survived, they were like abominations rejected by the world.

"I will find a way," I said, holding back the tear that was threatening to drop from my eyes.

"Stop saying nonsense, If you take the child's life I will be willing to forgive you," she said, sounding all righteous like she always did.

"Fuck you" I yelled, channeling every single bit of power I had in my body.

I activated all the runes I got during my adventures, activating my weapon's true form and also transforming into my true form ready to fight to the death.

authors POV

Maria in her true form, had white wings, shining brightly with a lot of brilliance.

Her hair took a golden color, her outfit transformed into a golden armor with a lot of power in them, and her bow had arcane runes all over it, with its size increasing a lot.

Not waiting for Mary to make a move, she knocked an arrow on her bow, firing at Mary with a lot of speed and velocity.

The arrow reached in front of Mary within microseconds, raising only a finger Mary stopped the arrow without any effort redirecting it toward her side.

On impact with the ground, a loud explosion was heard causing tremors in the surrounding vicinity.

Liam POV

With the amount of energy coming from that direction, I could tell that a huge battle was going on there, and I could feel Maria's presence there.

Increasing my speed to the highest I could, I started closing in.

Finally arriving at the site my first view was of a battered-up Maria, and a beautiful lady looking at her like an insect.

It pissed me off, and with my blood boiling, I rushed toward the lady.

"So you are the one that captured my daughter's heart," she said, using only her finger to send me flying.

I would have done the same thing I did to Damien with her, but I could only exert that pressure on demons and I am sure if he wanted to chase me he would have gotten me, I can only thank Lilith for reaching here.

Without wasting time on the topic, I moved towards her.

"You are troublesome, I guess I will have to kill you now," she said, lifting her hands.

Looking towards Maria I could see the tears in Maria's eyes.

And though her mouth was opened taking the shape of an 'O' I couldn't hear any sound.

Praying to whatever being existed above to protect her I smiled.

Ready to go down while using every little strength in me to hurt the person in front of me.

Moving towards her, with great speed I attacked.

But to my disappointment, I could not even scratch her a little.

Holding me on my neck, I could feel her tightening grip, almost at the level to send me to my grave.

Suddenly the pain stopped, and thinking I was dead, I opened my eyes.

Maria POV

I thought everything was over, both it seems I am wrong because we were protected.
