Chapter 117: Willing to Fall from Heaven for You 2

Le Yixian and Raphael stepped out of the palace, their backs drenched in cold sweat. This God was not to be trifled with.

"Why did you think of *that one* in front of the Father?" Raphael asked, feeling helpless.

Le Yixian reached up to rub her forehead. "I’ve been asleep for too long; it feels like I’ve dreamt my way back to the old days."

"The old days," Raphael’s voice carried a trace of wistfulness. "Yes, how peaceful Heaven was when *that one* was still there."

Le Yixian and Raphael were tasked with descending to the mortal realm to find Lucifer. It was said that he intended to lure humanity down into Hell. According to the clues provided by God, the place Lucifer was heading was a coastal city in the Middle Kingdom.

Seeing this, Le Yixian couldn't help but inwardly grumble. Back when she was young and ignorant, she had never been able to understand why a perfectly fine Western angel-turned-demon would run all the way to the Middle Kingdom to lure people into a Western Hell. Did the Eastern Yama not protest? Having souls snatched across borders like that?

"Michael, do you still remember Angel Yue?" Raphael suddenly interjected.

Le Yixian: "..."

Who? Among the angels, she only knew one female angel named Angel. Who was Angel Yue?

"Word is, it’s her soul that has been reincarnated this time, and *that one* went specifically to find her," Raphael continued.

No, no, no. Brother, the script is wrong. Even if you angels reincarnate, you should be reborn in Western countries. You have to realize that very few people in the Middle Kingdom believe in your bishops. Le Yixian grumbled silently again.

She couldn't reach Gou Sheng in her mind; she didn't know if something had gone wrong. Le Yixian had no choice but to find clues on her own. Heaven was divided into nine realms. The Seraphim and the Father resided in the Crystalline Heaven, where a library housed the entire history of the celestial realm. There were few records regarding Lucifer, as the old records of Heaven had long been destroyed.

Raphael had already prepared their identities for the descent: first-year freshmen at Silver Cherry Academy High School in City X of the Middle Kingdom. A new set of memories flooded Le Yixian’s mind—memories regarding this world. The original host was Michael, the chief of the Seraphim and former adjutant to Lucifer, the Vice-Regent of Heaven. After Lucifer’s fall, she had become the head of the Seraphim.

The reason Lucifer fell was not because of some balance between light and dark, but because he had fallen in love with a low-ranking little angel named Angel Yue. Well, rumor had it she was the younger sister of Angel. Angels were strictly forbidden from falling in love! Consequently, God stripped Angel Yue of her wings and cast her out of Heaven to be reincarnated as a mortal. Lucifer, enraged, had fallen from grace as a result.

This time, Lucifer, sensing that Angel Yue’s soul had reincarnated, had set off for the mortal realm, attempting to bring her back to live in Hell. Meanwhile, a group led by Michael had also descended to stop him. Unexpectedly, aside from the female angel Gabriel, all the other angels had fallen in love with Angel Yue, and Gabriel had become her close friend.

The ending? The angels, for the sake of the little angel Angel Yue, defied God’s will, allowing her to regain her wings and hold a grand wedding with Lucifer, moving freely between Hell and Heaven...

Le Yixian was left speechless after reading this. She hadn't written this story. Back then, she had only written short stories about Lucifer and Michael killing and loving each other. Who on earth wrote this brain-dead plot? One had to understand that before Lucifer fell, he was known as the "Light of the Morning Star," and his appearance eclipsed all other angels; even the other outstanding Seraphim couldn't compare to him. Generally, the higher the rank of an angel, the more beautiful they were. A little angel would likely be... just plain and pretty.

"Michael, our identities are ready. We can head to the mortal realm now," Raphael said, arriving with the news. The other Seraphim, it was said, had already headed to the school. Raphael had remained in Heaven specifically to wait for the sleeping Michael to wake up.

***

At Silver Cherry Academy, the September freshman orientation had begun. The school’s forum was already bursting.

"Wow, the standard of the freshmen this year is really high."
"Those two juniors are so handsome!"
"That junior girl is also incredibly beautiful!"

Le Yixian stood at the school gate, looked up at the shimmering gold characters of "Silver Cherry Academy," and sighed. She still couldn't figure it out. Angel Yue was a minor angel, and now that she was a mortal, she didn't even believe in God. If Lucifer wanted to take her soul, why would God send four Seraphim to intervene?

Yes, four Seraphim: Michael, the Archangel, along with Raphael, Gabriel, and Haniel. Gabriel and Haniel had already entered Silver Cherry Academy last year, becoming high-profile celebrities on campus.

To have God dispatch four Seraphim to the mortal realm, with Lucifer himself coming to seek her out—she was truly a legendary female lead. The protagonist’s name in the mortal realm was unknown; the only clue was an angel wing birthmark on her back. The task of searching for the mark was left to Gabriel and Le Yixian, who were in female form. When Gabriel and Haniel found out Le Yixian was using a female guise, they both laughed, saying they had never seen a female battle angel and were dying to see it.

Le Yixian naturally wouldn't let them have their fun. Once they descended, after verifying that Gabriel and Haniel were not her own lovers and ensuring her mortal identity was stable, she slipped away. Her excuse was that if all four Seraphim stayed together, it would attract the attention of Hell. The other three agreed it made sense, so they created a group chat to stay in touch.

Le Yixian had looked in the mirror and decided that Michael’s face was too eye-catching. Fortunately, Heaven produced an item called "Plain-Looking Glasses." Once worn, anyone except God would perceive the wearer as utterly ordinary—a completely unremarkable person. Le Yixian was quite satisfied. Wearing them and playing the "pig eating the tiger" was incredibly fun. She then joined the ranks of the ordinary freshmen.

"Oh, watch out!" Just as Le Yixian was lost in thought, a cry of alarm came from behind her. Before she could dodge, someone crashed into her, knocking her to the ground.

"S-sorry..." a flustered voice stammered.

Le Yixian looked up and saw a girl with delicate features, her face flushed red with nervousness, pressing down on her as she apologized.

"Classmate, it would be even better if you could get off me," Le Yixian gasped. "You’re really heavy."

The girl: "..."

"I’m sorry," the girl scrambled up immediately. Seeing Le Yixian stand, she added, "I’m really sorry. I wasn't looking where I was going, and when I saw you, it was too late to dodge."

Le Yixian: "..."

She scanned her surroundings. She was at the school entrance, there weren't many students around, and there were no obstacles—there was no reason to have run into her so forcefully.

Looking at the delicate-featured girl apologizing before her, a sharp glint flashed behind Le Yixian’s lenses: Could this be the female lead of this world?
