The next two days were hard on Rudra. Naomi repeatedly told Rudra that it was not Max's fault and how she had made him swear that he would not tell Rudra a word about her illness.
A lot of Rudra's anger towards Max dissipated as he realised his situation better and a light respect also came in Rudra's heart for his little brother to not tell-tale on Naomi even when facing Rudra's wrath.
However the fact remained that Naomi's health condition was getting worse and worse by the day and without mana flowing freely on earth Rudra would not be able to perform lifesaving spells on Naomi's body, when the very same mana that could be used to save her could also kill her.
Rudra tenderly took care of his children and Naomi as despite all the rage in his heart, he was a loving father to the three on the surface.
Rudra was desperately praying for a miracle at this point and that miracle came when two days before the first awakening a very interesting message was delivered by Gaia.
Gaia said " Master , the Angels are outside the solar system and await your permission to gain entry.
It is a messanger ship , with archangel Sariel , archangel Raphael and archangel Hazriel onboard ".
Rudra was informed by the queen that after his transformation to become a pure blooded angel he would be sought out after the angel race , and initially he thought it would be a negetive attention, but the two names that had came to meet him , Sariel and Raphael were people Rudra was sort of on friendly terms with in Omega , and the fact that they came on a messenger ship could only be seen as a positive.
Rudra's line of thinking However was interrupted by Gaia who broke his illusions " Even a thousand of you can't hope to match the unarmed strength of any of the Archangel's.
Them coming unarmed is because they don't need arms to level a million earth like planets ".
It was a good eye-opener for Rudra who was reminded not to be too full of himself and he immediately granted access to the messenger ship to enter the solar system as he realised that it was only a formality for them to ask him for entry as with their strength they need not ask for jackshit from him.
Rudra took it to the skies and quickly exited the stratosphere only hovering high above the mesosphere of the earth near the ionosphere.
Technically it should be possible for a human to be able to fly without mana , however Rudra was not a human. His shiny pearl white wings extended , he was meeting the angel race as an angel.
Rudra could have met them at the surface however he did not want the headlines of tommorows newspapers to be ' UFO spotted over the upside , what is shakuni upto again? '
He was high enough that atleast from a naked eye he was invisible.
Within next two minutes a majestic ship, white and gold in color appeared infront of Rudra and by the way it was positioned with the door hanging open Rudra understood the cue to hop-on.
The moment he entered the ship, mana flooded his veins as he felt strength returning to his body. Rudra had not even realised how weak he was without having an ambient mana environment as a small moan escaped his lips in ecstasy.
When Rudra looked around he saw a beautiful woman staring at him, and it was an unknown being as Rudra had never seen her before.
She wore a radiant silverwhite armour and had glistening white wings at her back. She was 5'8-5'9 in height and weighed no more than 150 pounds.
Her figure was slim , however she was not too frail , infact her defined muscles were a stark contrast to her otherwise smooth skin that was a perfect wheatish white in color.
" Greetings Archangel Hazriel " Rudra said , knowing that she could not be Raphael or Sariel since both of them were men.
" Huh , shocking , most men i meet stare at my visage for atleast a full minute before they can break free from their stupor.
It seems like my charm is not charming enough for you to be unaffected ". Hazriel made her assessment as she seemed impressed by Rudra.
" Im married " Rudra replied in response with a wide smile as the reply stunned Hazriel who instantly gained more respect for the man.
In the universe most marriages were circumstantial and nobody remained true to their love. There was always a woman from some other species with some other specialities that the wife did not possess leading to all men cheating sooner or later.
A man like Rudra was hence a rare find.
Hazriel too checked out Rudra and was stunned by his handsomeness, he looked exactly like the purest of pureborn angels with the shiny blue eyes and blonde hair and the perfect white wings that could be retracted into the spine at his back.
It was too bad that Rudra gave her a cold vibe right off the bat , otherwise she would be very interested in spending a passionate night with him if a chance presented itself.
' I guess this is better ' , Hazriel thought as she guided Rudra in towards the main chamber of the ship where Sariel and Raphael were apparently playing chess.
The two of them looked exactly as how Rudra remembered them to be from Omega, however instead of loose fitting clothes they were in a light chainmail type armour.
" Ayyy , our man's here Rafa ". Sariel looked at Rudra and beamed .
Raphael too gave him a wide smile as he greeted Rudra as his ' Disciple ' .
Rudra was offered a seat at the table and some ' Nectar ' ( a highgrade of wine that was imbued with mana and brewed specially for god's who would not get drunk from ordinary wines otherwise due to their fast metabolism )
Rudra took a sip and instantly felt warmth rush all over his body as he felt a burst of mana in his veins, causing him to release another small moan of joy.
" Good stuff eh " Sariel said with a smile as he moved his chess piece.
" Good stuff indeed " Rudra confirmed with a polite tone.
For a few moments afterwards there was complete silence as Hazriel and Rudra watched the two complete their chess game.
Raphael won and Sariel was forced to do a bottoms up on his glass of nectar as his face flushed a deep red as a result.
" We have kept our guest waiting long enough, let's get down to buisness ". Raphael said as the temperature in the room suddenly dropped by a few degrees.
