Soul and Misery

The entirety of a being consists of two factors:-

#1, Soul, #2, Memories,

If a person loses any of these he isn't the same you knew anymore,

There is another factor that can be included, that is, his body, however, a person can still be the same without his body...

The soul of a person has four useful applications, that being, Soul item, Domain, consciousness space, and Aura,

There are yet many others like condensing Aether in soul to increase lifespan, burning soul to increase Aether or Aura thus reducing life-span and many other,

So, what is a soul item,

A soul item is the materialization of the soul that can be used as a weapon or something, it depends upon the personality and abilities of the user. It has to be materialized to be used.

But, anyway, every soul weapon has a purpose and is useful.

The domain is a mirror to the soul and memories,

There are two types of domains, closed domain, and spread domain,

A spread domain overlaps reality while a closed domain is a crack in reality,

While everyone knows about the closed domain, no one knows or has seen what it actually is, in fact, the only one who possesses a closed domain in the heavens is the Chancellor of Heaven, Michael, who never used it as no need for it ever arose, well even if it is called a closed domain, it is an ability that is close to a close to a closed domain,

A spread domain consumes a huge amount of Aether to form while a closed domain is formed of emotions,

A consciousness pool is like the domain but, in a person's mind inaccessible from outside, it is obtained through meditation and is used to absorb Aether from the surroundings, to materialize soul usable as an item, to improve soul by using merit,

At the same time, the Aura is Aura,

Well, in other words, The soul item is the materialization of the soul,

the domain is the area of the user,

consciousness space is the way to improve the soul, form soul item, and absorb Aether,

Aura is the projection of the status of a being,

Back to the present...

The moment Raphael looked up Helel withdrew his smile which has been commented as devilish on the archangel's face many times by Michael.

He did not want to ruin his image as a wise and dependable brother, well, also kind but just towards his brothers,

Archangel's can be divided into ranks:-

First wings, Second wings, and so on based on the number of wings on their back,

However, this rule doesn't apply to some angels such as Gabriel and Empra as for why, as they use their ability to morph their wings into large wings coming out from their back but the original form of their wings is different from it as Gabriel's true form has 'feather's with brownish hints' which comes from under her arms to her wrists

And Empra is totally covered in his wings only shining red eyes there to be seen.

Michael, Uriel, Helel, and Raphael followed the normal rankings but they can morph them into singular large ones using their innate skill of Feather manipulation.

Currently, Uriel and Raphael had four pairs making them fourth wings and Helel and Michael had five pairs making them fifth wings,

Gabriel and Empra are ranked on the level of fifth wings,

There is an absolute gap between rankings so it is hard to transverse them,

In other words, The wings were a parallel of strength ranking among archangels and angels including all factors of soul, physical strength, Aether stored and being used, magic channel's size, ability, etc.

The shape and color of wings also depend on elements, abilities, and skills.

Raphael was currently inspecting Helel and tending to his injuries,

Raphael's soul weapon was 'The staff of healing', which can be used for diagnosis, healing injuries, regrowing limbs, curing diseases, post-mortem, curing evolution defects, and permanently removing a feature from someone's bloodline, it also gives the owner unlimited healing until he holds to it and has Aether absorbed,

"How did you get this injury," asked Raphael, it was like an insect gave a clean cut behind his eyes, he was using his king's oculi to see till now,

He then healed him and heard the answer,

"Raph, Thank you for your help, I had been missing this healing," Previously in heaven it would have his wound automatically cured as Raphael was a part of the God who is Heaven itself.

But, ever since Raphael was born this property of Heavens disappeared,

"A certain Ashura bit off my oculi unknowingly while another tried to blow it away from the face of heavens knowingly," this statement gave chills to the accused culprits.

"But, your majesty, I never ate your oculi, I only saw them," Jormungandr tried to defend himself, but Helel was Helel, "So, it was you, and were you deaf when I said he did it unknowingly,"

'Me and my fucking mouth!!!'

Jormungandr cursed his mouth, Helel was a natural mental torturer,

"From now onwards, you are my mount,"

A proud Ashura being used as a ride, he got off light yet, received a heavy penalty.

"Monkey, do you have any grudge against peaceful and serene eyes on trees?"

"No, I don't, " Hanu inwardly smiled this was a normal troupe, he try to defend himself as the culprit only to completely affirm himself as a culprit,

He wouldn't fall for it.

"Then, why did you attack me?" inquired Helel,

"I don't know what you are talking about your majesty," replied Hanu.

"Did you blow away trees with eyes, that was me," Helel clarified.

"No, I didn't!" replied Hanu.

"He blasted trees away, harming the environment," Raphael played the eyewitness.

"..." Hanu forgot that a certain eyewitness was also present here.

"I did it unknowingly," replied Hanu.

"You blasted off the trees unknowingly," Helel asked to confirm,

"I harmed your majesty unknowingly," Hanu replied this was mental torture for him.

"No, you had intentions to kill me, so you did that knowingly,"

"I didn't know it was your majesty!!!" Hanu got agitated, Helel was trying to make the situation more desperate for him, the crime has already developed from hitting to killing,

"Would you kill any random person in Heavens because he looked creepy, okay from tomorrow onwards you would do a monkey dance in front of my castle everyday," Helel decided to call it off but, Hanu's pride would nowhere to be seen after this punishment ends,

All that was heard in the room after this declaration was a few compressed laughters and giggles,

The reason for Empra's previous comment and the reason Gabriel let them off was because of this, their brother is a true evil who enjoys destroying people without harming them,

(Reference to chapter: ch 11:Pride, steps, and trickery,

Empra knew 'someone's pride should be destroyed today for good.')

Hanu was just the first and Jormungandr isn't done yet.

However, one thing was true, Hanu got off light on this matter.
