Angelica’s POV

----------------------------------------

Todays the annual meeting with our lord and my fellow companions. Every year we all get together to report to our lord about the conditions of the universes we supervise. I wonder if anything big is going on. Since the time of my creation our lord has never had the need to take action. However I have seen how the other deities act around our lord. He must be strong, strong enough that even the higher gods bend the knee at their own free will.

When I was created I knew my purpose. To serve my lord as his right hand. To be his sword and shield. To slay his enemies and protect his back in battle, but those days never came. He already had everything so what purpose do I serve? Michael the left hand of my lord serves as the commander of his armies. I want to do more. I want to prove my worth, I want my lord to be proud of me. I hope that an opportunity arises at today’s meeting.

The meeting was disappointing, there were only reports of minor skirmishes between the angels and evil doers. In some universes the devils would oppose the angels. In others it was the fallen titans and fallen gods all wishing only for carnage.

It looks like it’s going to be another year of training and standing around. A quiet sigh life my mouth. I glanced towards my lord and thought, “Even my lord looks bored I wonder what’s going through his mind.”

“My Angles.” A powerful yet calm voice echoed in the conference room.

My jaw dropped and shock filled my face. Does he have a mission for us! I thought. My thoughts where cut off when my lord continued to speak.

“"I am going to go on a vacation to the world Eremel one of the worlds I created.” His voice one again echoed throughout the room. Some of the angels gasped and shock once again filled the room.

"You're le-leaving us?" One of the angels said in horror. I stared at my lord and realised everyone was losing their composure. I have to act, I can’t let them lose composure in front of my lord!! I stood up and slammed my fist "Silence! Watch you're tone you're in the presence of our lord!" I said with a calm and collected expression.

I had a quick glance at my lord and saw his gentle smile. Is he really leaving? I thought. I should ask to accompany him surely he will accept. Just as I was about to open my mouth Michael spoke. "My lord I understand you won’t change your mind but I request you take a squad of my soldiers." As soon as Michael finished speaking. I wanted to volunteer myself right away but I saw my lord was about to speak and held my tongue.

"Hmm... I planned to go alone but I can hear and see your concern." He said with a beautiful smile causing all of them slightly blush. "I think it would be fine if I take along Angelica. Don't you agree?" he said with a happy smile.

WH-WHAAT!! I almost screamed out loud.

My lord dismissed us all and told me to prepare for the journey. I walked to my room with a calm and cooled demeanour, as the right hand of our lord I cannot lose face by losing control of my emotions in front of everyone.

When I was done preparing for our travels I went back to my lord’s office. I prepared food, clothes and other necessities and stored them in a storage ring. Of course we don’t require food as divine beings created by our lord we don’t wither away with age or fall sick to diseases.

“My lord the preparations are complete, if you don’t mind me asking could you tell me about Eremel” I asked with curiosity.

My lord spoke about Eremel told me all about the species that lived there and where they were situated at. We then discussed which races we would choose to be.

I didn’t know which race to pick, they all had their pros and cons. My weapon of choice are twin daggers, quick kills in and out before the enemy realises. Of course I have also mastered the sword. In the time that I have served my lord I have fought in many wars to train myself. From facing entire armies alone with two rapiers in hand to slaughter all in my path, to sneaking into enemy fortresses to perform quick assassinations of high priority target.

Knowing this my lord gave the suggestion of the vampire sub-race vampire princess. The race allows me to use blood magic allowing me to conjure weapons from my own blood or the blood of my foes. The sub-race would allow me to use many different weapons including blood itself. Just imagining poisoning all my enemies with a conjured weapon made from blood magic sounds powerful. The choice is very appealing and suits me very well. As expected of my lord. I smiled and told my lord it was a good choice and I would go with his recommendation and stick with it.

My lord then chose his own race. The high elf sub-race. He never told me why he chose this specific race. I guess I’ll have to wait and find out.
