My Angelic System

Chapter 175  Celestial Hierarchy

Aria, feeling that her presence might be more helpful on her home planet, made the difficult decision to return. She knew that her resources and connections there could aid in their mission to help Kye, and she wanted to explore every avenue to gather information about his condition and potential evolution.

Before her departure, Aria looked at Kye and Ras, a sense of determination in her eyes. "I'll head back to my planet and start digging for any information related to your situation, Kye. We need all the knowledge we can get. And I'll keep in touch regularly, so don't worry."

Kye nodded, understanding the importance of her mission. "Thank you, Aria. Your help means a lot to me. And be careful, okay? It might be dangerous."

Aria looked at Kye with a small smile. "I'm the one who's supposed to say that to you, Kye, you know that, right?" She chuckled. "And I'm quite strong, so you don't have to worry about me."

"I know that you're strong, but still. I'm scared that I might put you guys in danger because my condition isn't normal!"

Ras put a reassuring hand on Kye's shoulder. "Kye, we've faced our fair share of danger in the past. Aria and I are stronger than you can possibly think, so no matter what happens, we'll always be ready. Aria will be fine, and so will we."

Kye drew a deep breath, trying to find comfort in his friends' words. He knew they were right, that they had faced danger far greater than he could imagine before, but the fear of the unknown still gnawed at him. Aria's task was crucial to their plan, but it was hard not to worry.

"I understand," Kye finally said, a mix of gratitude and concern in his eyes. "Just... promise me you'll prioritize your well-being over mine. I don't want to lose any of you because of me."

Aria and Ras exchanged a brief glance before sighing. Even though they knew that Kye couldn't force them to follow what he had said, they knew that it would pain him a great deal if they were to go against such a heartful request.

In the end, Aria nodded, her expression softening with understanding. "I promise, Kye. Your safety is important to us, but I'll do my best to ensure mine too."

Ras echoed her sentiments, giving Kye's shoulder a reassuring squeeze. "You're not alone in this, buddy. We're in this together, no matter where we are. Aria will gather information, I'll be your support here, and you'll train and evolve. We'll meet our goals and keep each other safe."

With a nod of agreement, Kye felt a sense of reassurance wash over him. While he knew that both Aria and Ras were really stubborn when it came to him, he was glad that they decided to agree with what he asked.

And just like this, after a few more conversations, Aria finally departed, leaving Ras and Kye alone.

"Kye, I want to do something," Ras suddenly said as Kye looked up to him curiously. "Can I eat you?"

"Eh?" Kye blushed as he knew what Ras meant. "Stop teasing me!" And just like Aria, he slapped him on his back.

"Ouch, why do you guys love hitting me so much?" Ras chuckled as he saw Kye's expression. It was so easy to tease him that Ras couldn't help himself, even when things were serious.

Kye chuckled despite himself, feeling a bit more at ease with Ras's playful banter. "Maybe because you deserve it sometimes, Ras."

Ras grinned, his usual mischievousness returning. "Fair enough. But anyway, we have a lot to do on our end as well. Aria's gone to gather information, and I'm here to help you train and evolve into an Archangel. So we can't let her down."

Kye nodded with determination. "I won't. However, I have a question..."

"Ask away, I'm all ears."

"Is there something else after an Archangel?" He asked curiously. "I mean, I've seen Archangel Michael before, and Archangel Uriel has been watching me for a while now. So I was wondering if there was anything above the Archangel rank."

Ras pondered for a moment, his brow furrowing as he considered Kye's question. "Well, Kye, things are actually a bit more complex than you might think. To answer your question, yes, there are a lot of ranks, and Archangel is just one of the lowest order of angels. However, they are by no means weak. On the contrary, they are so strong that they could kill you in an instant if they wanted to."

"But the fact that you already attracted the attention of two archangels is quite problematic, Kye."

"How so?" He asked after a moment, processing the information Ras provided.

"The thing is that you're an anomaly, Kye. You know this as much as me," Kye nodded. "This means that you weren't born in heaven, thus you're not registered as one of the celestial beings. In fact, your situation is unheard of."

"So, what does this all mean, Ras?" Kye asked, his voice tinged with a mix of curiosity and apprehension.

Ras let out a sigh, trying to find the right words to convey the complexity of the situation. "It means, Kye, that you're operating in uncharted territory. You're not bound by the same rules and hierarchies as the celestial beings. You're like a wild card, and that's both a strength and a vulnerability."

Kye nodded slowly, beginning to grasp the magnitude of his uniqueness. "I see. So, because I'm not officially part of the celestial hierarchy, I don't have their protection or recognition?"

Ras nodded in agreement. "Exactly. And that makes you a target. Other celestial beings might see you as a potential threat or a source of power to exploit. As for Archangel Uriel, she's most likely curious about you and still hasn't decided what to do with you. Surely she must have seen when you lost control over yourself. So things might be a bit hectic for you at the moment."
