Chapter ?827 Sariel''s Probing
After Raphael, it was archangel sariel''s turn to tutor Rudra.
Sariel looked like a young man in his prime wearing a ck leather jacket , white tshirt and blue denim jeans alongside some really cool aviators.
If he did not have the huge angelic white wings on his back , he could pass for some Hollywood movie star, however the wings made him seem even more of a baddie than a usual actor.
Sariel had an interesting past in the history that Rudra had learnt about the Archangel''s , apparently Sariel for some time had left Heaven to learn among the human race about his station, this choice made Sariel more human (simr to his older brothers; Ozriel and Michael (to some degree) than his other angelic brothers and sisters.
He would learn that not everything was easy in life, Sariel worked with his own hands instead of taking the easy road. This shows more morality as Sariel would protect the children of sinners while other angels will kill all of them.
Now most would expect the Archangels to be aloof and cold, considering they are of the highest orders of Angels. However this couldn''t be farther from the truth for Sariel who scarcely destroyed life out of anger and spite. However, Harm his brothers and sisters though and you will see true anger the likes the world has never seen.
Around those mortals who are still alive however, he is incrediblypassionate, always happy to help someone with their problems and make sure that they feel better even if it just takes a hug or a lot more.
Thispassionate attitude however made it so that on more than one asion Sariel bedded a mortal widow to bring her out of her grief which is why he has many bastard children running around on middle earth , one of whom Rudra knows firsthand.
Sariel smiled as he looked at Rudra , he was the one archangel who evaluated Rudra rather highly for all the help he had given his son in the middle realm , which is why he was extremely willing to impart his knowledge to the best of his abilities to Rudra.
Just like Raphael, Sariel led Rudra into a collosal building , however instead of finding intricate illusions ,this time around Rudra found a huge open field covered in beautiful nts and trees and some scenic ponds.
" Wee to my humble abode , king shakuni ". Sariel said as he weed Rudra to his home , and Rudra in-turn politely bowed and expressed his appreciation for sariel''s taste of interior decoration.
Sariel said " I''m sure Rafa has taught you invaluable knowledge to strengthen your brain. Well , I''m not as smart as him , not as strong as big brother Micheal, not as cunning as little brother Lucifer, however no angel has ever beat me in battle.
Not big brother Micheal , not Rafa , not Luci , for my defense is impregnable.
My lessons over the next two weeks for you , should you choose to learn would be on how to defend urself.
Are you willing? "
Rudra''s heart skipped a beat . Sariel was too humble , the books he had read mentioned that sariel once battled 7 Archangel''s including Micheal and Raphael at once , however still walked out of the battle unscathed.
His defenses were stuff of the legends and it was said that the only sword to ever scratch him was the divine sword Excalibur and none other whatsoever!
Rudra gulped as he said " I''m willing ".
Sariel smiled as he said " very well , before we start let me gauge the level of defensive techniques you already know , so that I''m able to tutor you at a suitable level .<sub> </sub>
Please try and defend yourself the best you can".
Rudra took out Excalibur and siege breaker as he took his battle stance. Rudra knew that defense was one of the areas where hecked the most as a fighter.
His natural style of fighting was incredibly aggressive which relied on the ideology that offense was the best defense , however this was a rare chance for him to remedy that .
Sariel did not pick a weapon , but instead bent over and picked up a small twig that had fallen off a tree as he charged at Rudra with the twig in his hand.
Rudra''s eyes widened, the speed was something he was not attuned to , instantly he was sent flying as sariel punched him in the gut before he could even see himing.
Rudra activated time dtion. It was the only way he could possibly hope to fight against an archangel, as otherwise the speed that these beings moved was just too fast for a mere tier 5 mortal like him to see.
Time slowed down around Rudra and he was able to look at the iing sariel more clearly now. Rudra dodged a twig thrust by sariel and tried to hit the angel with the blunt end of his sword , however sariel caught his elbow with his other hand and once again tossed him aside effortlessly like a ragdoll.
Rudra rolled on the green grass as he took fall damage , however he was quickly on his feet , putting his swords into a cross as he blocked sariel''s foot-stomp.
PHA!
A mouthful of spit escaped Rudra''s mouth as the wind seemed to be knocked out of his chest as he realised that the sword block did nothing more than slow sariel''s stomp , whose bruntnded on his chest.
Sariel stepped back as he let Rudra gain a moment of air, before he started tounch pure divine energy sts at Rudra from range , as he watched intently as to how the leader of the elites defended against the attacks.
For the first attack , Rudra used '' Full counter to send it back at three time the power towards sariel , and the Archangel''s face brightened at the move , however it was soon back to expressionless as Rudra failed to do it again and was progressively getting pounded .
After 3 minutes , Rudra''s time dtion ran out and everything was a fast blur for him hence , and Sariel soon understood that Rudra was utterly exhausted.
Bruised and battered , breathless and bleeding Rudra waited for sariel''s evaluation , however even the kind archangel had no way to sugarcoat these words as he said " Your defense is pretty much non-existent and your technique is horrible ".
