Chapter 59 - Heavenly Land

"Lord Ouroboros." Damascus looked her contractor in the eyes, troubled by the circumstances that she was in. "It was the first time that this had ever happened. Also, how did you get that halo?"

"A gift from neutralizing the Angel." MF shrugged. "Of course not, it's a little bit complicated, but it seems like the Heaven's Juggernaut had fallen in love with the graceful me and decided to give this object of approval as a warning sign so that the other Angel wouldn't be hostile at the first meeting."

Foel who could see through her sarcasm reword her husband's wording so that the tax collector wouldn't be misunderstood, "She probably pleaded to the Angel." The tanomobi sneered.

"My dear, which side are you actually on?"

"Regardless, if what you said is true, that halo might probably be the best spoil of the war of this hunt." Damascus began to caress her chin. "A possible diplomatic engagement with the Angels means that we might probably be able to seek more truth about them, but the content of this can of worms is still unpracticed, the best scenario will probably be able to recruit some of their kin to our side."

MF could only smile in satisfaction, Damascus had been thinking far and even trying to take an advantage from a little hint that was given. Surely, it would be best to have the lady of the throne to be a permanent ally to the Ouranos' jurisdiction.

"Let's talk about the payment before talking about your recruitment," MF said with an afflictive smile.

The sudden increase of satisfaction upon Damascus' face revealed that she always wanted to stand side by side with the major entity herself. Her eyes sparkled before coughing intentionally to get back on the real dilemma.

"It will be the greatest honor that I could acquire. Although we still don't know how to settle the payment."

"Indeed, this is the first time that this case is happening. We might need to find an alternative for the demanded payment." MF analyzed the divine entity, the giant ring-like halo was still brimming with light, although she couldn't feel any kind of soul within the hollow vessel.

"Since when have we're lacking in wealth?" Foel said, looking dismissive as ever although she was genuinely curious by her partner's statement.

MF then told the deal as Damascus showed the tanomobi the receipt of the contract she got within the upper society of the second layer of the Underworld.

"Let's just kill her."

"It had been already stated that the absence of soul from the bearer of the debt who gave their ownership will not revoke the demand from the first party contractor." Damascus said.

"I wonder if I could put another slave mark on top of her contracted change in ownership of her life."

MF approached Anvriel's body. Her halo resonated with the gigantic ring of the angel before the runic donut above the divine body fragmented into 6 pieces of object that were floating in front of MF. All of them were coated by holy light.

The soothing wind of nature began to caress MF's hair, numerous flowers grew rapidly within the vicinity, and butterflies began to fly around the six divine items like it was coming straight out of a fairy tale.

"These... these are Divine Artifacts!" Damascus exclaimed.

The artifacts in sequence are a dagger, a staff, a gauntlet, a sword, a shield, and a crown. All of them were imbued by a holy light, glimmering in golden valor.

"In my long experience of excavating, I never encountered these kinds of artifacts." Foel stared at the illusive sword. The blade was wider than a normal blade, the engraving pattern changed depending on the angle of the spectator, as it emits a unique force field surrounding the edge of the tip.

Meanwhile, Damascus' expression showed that she wanted all of them.

"Something troubling you? Lady Damascus?"

"It's just, it would be a waste of selling them to pay for that idiotic hellspawn." Damascus fiddled with her finger like a child. "They are too precious."

It seemed like her hobby didn't allow her to throw away a precious object within her grasp.

MF slightly tilted her head in playfully manner "You can have two of them, take it as a gift for prevailing the hunt. Anything but the sword and the crown."

MF tried to look at Foel's face, she didn't show any kind of reaction whatsoever, but deep inside she was actually in a tepid celebration. Of course, the Ouroboros knew this regardless although she was still unsure if Foel was really that happy or just dismissive of her husband's attentiveness.

As for the golden crown, MF felt that her halo was attracted to it. As if it was guiding her to choose the important belongings that Anvriel wanted her to have.

"I'll take the staff and the dagger then," said the lady of the throne, despite not having her throne near her at the current moment. "I think I'll sell the staff and keep the dagger. One of them was more than sufficient to pay the debt, the rest of the HEL will be used for investing my own dominion. But, Lord Ouroboros, what will you do with the Angel's lifeless vessel?"

"As my way of honoring the fallen Angel, I'll preserve her body." MF turned around, her eyes were upon the lushful nature that was bestowed by Anvriel, as if it was meant for her to protect. "Domeniul Ceresc will be the name of this land! It will be a part of Ouranos' Citadel, bountiful and heavenly, it would strike a grace against mortal and divine entities alike!"

'A land bestowed by heaven.' Foel thought.

"As expected from Lord Ouroboros, you will take everything, holy and wicked, to your possession."

Curious, the three of them explored the land for a while. Most of the resources within the Domeniul Ceresc were treasures to the Neanh and Underworld.

Both Foel and Damascus conversed for a while, exchanging knowledge of both worlds. Most of them were common for MF but she wasn't the type who flaunted and ruined others' fun.

Damascus then abided her farewell, conjuring a portal with the amount of mana she had as the means of transportation of two entirely different worlds costs an extremely large amount of mana.

Then again, it turned out the Underworlder had a large quantity of high rank mana crystal as their normal commodities, MF might have wanted to abuse the disparities of the mana crystal's worth from both worlds, but that would be when she began to start her monopoly conquest.

MF had everything that she needed.

"Don't forget to bring a souvenir." Foel chuckled.

"I'll bring the delicacy that I talked about earlier within the nigh future, Madam Foel.. May both of you live a long and happy life."
