[ Adolescence ] Bells of Destruction

I was commander Hall ,A ten year military veteran .Those years of acting as a glorified royal assassin has earned me the unique right to be assigned to the western Continent . The secretary of state ordered me to do a recon on the chasm queen's encroaching army.

A special operations force of 5 chosen individuals that were handpicked , selected to act as the empire's eyes to survey the enemy's position and numbers. Two of my five allies rang silent when I called them through the combat headpieces .

mhhh

That was peculiar but elite soldiers could handle themselves .With that out of the way I continued the plan with my other 2 squad members.

---

What I was witnessing was a young boy emerging from behind a building holding a short sword. Seeing his stance and approach, my first thought was the boy had set his sights on rescuing his relatives.

The fool

The scene disturbed me greatly but I retained a stoic conduct . Recently I gave birth to a son , So i was sympathetic . Through the boys resolve a reflection of my son playing happily in a field of dandelions shot through my head.

Seeking fresh blood a more intelligent armored chasm creature prepared to face the boy , this one looked like a leader.

A silent prayer of mercy and a painless execution for that child , hopefully he won't have to endure his final moments as a monster's plaything.

With the sound of a thump , the youth's soul was severed from his human husk.An unfortunate turn of events , but death in this profession is more common than stars in the sky.

โ€œA casualty of war โ€œ I whispered to myself, readying to report the enemy outpost .

The task complete, we had no other reason to risk our lives for the empire.

Readying myself to make the move , the specialized squad waited for my signal ,

When suddenly

The shriek of bells deafened the area. The sound alone produced its own gravity as its frequency caused the trees , dirt and air to blast backwards from the direction of the dead child.A Massive wooden coffin encased the body of the boy. Atop it lay the depiction of an angelโ€™s offering a rose to a mortal boy.

Mesmerized, I watched a supernatural power unleash itself on this world. Soon after, a Huge gate covered with golden leaves opened in the middle of the sky. Like a Beacon its presence enveloped everything .The coffin floated into the gate and out of the heavenly rupture came forth 3 winged humanoids boys, with enchanted wings. Each brandishing their own weapon of catastrophe .A bow , A scythe , and a harp .Their very presence caused a change in air pressure ,as white clouds started to gather and lightning crackled through the air wild and untamed.

A silent storm.

The wind gained courage with the addition of the otherworldly beings picking up evermore causing me and my elite team of soldiers to have no choice but to hold on. The harp-wielding seraphim began playing his melody but it was silent. Though perhaps in my error , only thoughs of divine origin could hear it .

A sequence of string pulls initiated the start of a reaping of lives.

This portion's main army consisted of at least 40000 plus active combatants , each mutant incredibly strong. Though what I was watching was a massacre. The first to die were the chasm Generals. Bodies rapidly eviscerated by swift swipes of the seraphim bow strings. His sibling following in full stride, scythe serving as a decoration as wherever the angel appeared , combatants evaporated. Spots where seraphim hovered above were immediately turned into roses. White for the Bow bearing , Red for the Scythe Seether, And black for the Harp holder.

The difference in power was so overwhelming I forgot everything. I was Humbled ,understanding that my power was insignificant . Unexplainable phenomena like the ones that shaped the world left mortals grasping with their own fragility , when trying to reconcile with the lack of control. Dropping my weapon and standing up straight from my crouched position , All i could do was watch true power.

Divinity , yes , divinity in the flesh has descended from the ethos. The army that threatened all of the western continent was erased in the time it took to read a book. Though not even their remains were left , as soon as one of them died itโ€™s essence was sucked into the portal. Obviously serving as fuel for the little devil.

When the wind and debris settled down the only thing that was left was a man and a woman cradling themselves in each others arms. Above them ,floating down ,that dreadful coffin. Opening and its heavy wooden cover slid to the ground. The three hands of Ophiuchus Crow , Winter , and Harmony protected the coffin in the form of a tri point halo.

The depiction of tens of thousands of lifeless bodies of high ranking chasm creatures paired with the almost holy image of a boy in nude draped in black roses.Surrounded by being of the most high caused a haunting beauty

The only thing i could do was revel in awe at the birth of a sacred being
