14. Throwback II

His brain is fighting but his body is not really able to. He bowed violently.

"I will leave you to enjoy the pain. How do you feel that your friend died in front of you without even doing anything?!" Haeres said with a smile.

Guile burst into tears and he sank his face to the ground. His lips tightened. He was still scratched on the ground.

"You who they call God in heaven. You know I do not fully believe in You because I want to know a lot about who I am... You did not give. I do not know why You chose me to be sent to this world. I do not know what Your plan really is for me... But if You want me to believe in You completely, give me a reason.

I know I am not a Saint or a holy person to give in to. I know and You know I am not very good because I am also full of sin, but I do not deny that...I will not pretend in front of You. But please, help me end this devil. And Yes, I will not deny You that I want to avenge my friend Tars. And I also want to finish all of this. Please, if You are really true, give me proof..."

Everything Guile says is just in his mind. While Haeres was watching him in agony. A smile of victory flashes on his lips.

"I think the moments I gave you are right... Now, all you have to do is enjoy the pain that will bring you!"

He walked towards Guile but he was suddenly stopped by a golden light.

"You really are, Guile Medheart, You are a brave and true creature. Just like you said, you do not fully believe in our Father. He did not give you the answers you are looking for because you did not ask for it. He seldom gives people the requests because it depends on the content of their heart and personality... Many people just use His name. And it is also common in prayers, just outside the nose. You are lucky because He granted your request. That is because you are true to yourself. You are also not selfish, your heart is good even if you are not perfect. All you need is a complete belief in Him. Look at me because I am the proof that He is real."

The man's voice was light. He slowly raised his face... A man covered with golden light stared at him. His hair is yellow and a bit wavy. It has blue eyes that are beautiful and seem to calm you when you look at. It smiled broadly at him and held out his right hand. His mouth opened... But he could not speak when he saw the white pairs of its wings covered in golden light...

None of his own reached out his hand. And as soon as he touched his hand, he suddenly became stronger. It made him stand up. Haeres suddenly rushed to Michael who was turning his back. But he did not even get close to it, a powerful force threw him down. He immediately stood up and wiped the blood from his mouth. He was surprised to see the back of the angel... He didn't do anything. He just kept watching it, it was hard to be in a hurry. Meanwhile...

"I'm Michael. Nice to meet you Guile Medheart..."

"W-Why me? Why did He send me here? Why?" he asked a series of questions.

"Because you have the qualities that creatures in this world need. Now, do you fully believe in our Father?"

Guile smiled sparingly...

"Why would I doubt now, I'm already facing you?!"

Michael laughed softly. He let go of his hand and stroked his right cheek.

"Get ready, because I will lend my power."

From where it suddenly grabbed a sword. It handed it to him.

"Use my sword for your purpose."

Because of what Michael said, he immediately took it.

"This is an honor for me."

Michael just smiled at him. It stepped aside and he looked at the opponent. He signed the cross...

"Father, thank you all. I know I have long been blind to myself because I doubted believing in You. Forgive me... And now, I want You to join me in my fight." he said.

After that, he quickly ran towards the opponent. It also rushed at him, it will go hand in hand. They reached out... They quickly attacked each other. Haeres fell and gradually turned to ashes. The disciples of this demon turn to ashes. The Golem and Orcs are gone. The fairies in the battle cry for joy when they disappear...

Guile quickly went to his friend. Tarse...

"Tars! Wake up... We won!"

He shook his shoulder several times but it did not move. His body is also cold. He has cried a lot.

"T-Tars!..."

He looked at Michael desperately.

"C-Can you revive my friend?!"

Michael shook his head...

"I'm sorry but this is the end of the life of your friend Tars." from where a man suddenly appeared to him.

"I am Azrael the angel of death. But our Father wants you to talk to him one last time. Here he is..."

From behind it came Tarse and he smiled broadly...

"Friend! What are you crying about there?!"

Guile suddenly stood up and immediately approached it. He smiled even though he was crying. He could not believe what he saw...

"Tars!"

"Yes! It's me. Thank you all, friend. I do not regret helping you. Otherwise, I would not have a friend crying for me now. Please also tell Avana thank you. And tell her not to cry loudly on the day of my funeral. I also want you to plant white roses in the place where I will be buried. And most important of all... Take care of my dearest mirror. I'm sorry, I have to leave..."

He also cried and hugged him... When he let go of his hug, he disappeared with Azrael. He still did not stop crying in those moments...

"Although our relationship as Tars' friends was short but I can say we were happy because everything was meaningful. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have known Fiara."

Grandpa Gusting kept crying when he finished the story and wiped it with tears. He looked at his comrades because no one reacted when he finished the story. He smiled because everyone was crying. Blade and Drake are crying the most there, the two are really crying. Hunter's is just a bit simple. Ai's tears are flowing and he just sneezes. And his children... Turn around to them. They are obviously crying too because they are both sobbing. Grandpa Gusting just laughed at the scene he saw.
