Chapter 17: Archangel
Human World...
Naruto, along with his lovers and allies Aamon, Barbatos, Pruflas, and Astaroth, led the legions in an attack on a human village, hoping to draw out the attention of Heaven while the villagers prayed for salvation, letting God know where they were.
Not even a minute had passed since they started attacking the humans when a portal opened up in the sky and a countless number of angels poured out.
In terms of numbers, the heavens have the advantage over the devils, then the fallen with the fewest members; however, as the war progresses, more angels fall, adding to the ranks of the fallen.
The devil races have the advantage in terms of ability diversity and the devil gear that Lord Lucifer bestows upon those who gain his favor.
True the devil race is stronger than the fallen and angels but the biblical god's power was so great that it kept the other two factions at bay and the fact the angels and fallen used light energy which is the main weakness of the devil race.
But today is different; the Biblical God has been weakened by sealing the Apocalypse Beast, and with the Devil Race attacking humans across the globe, the Biblical God will not have a choice but to divide his army and face the Satans in his weakened state.
Flashback...
Naruto stood before the legion of devils and used his magic so that hundreds of thousands of them could hear his words.
"Remember the plan; we'll keep the enemies here as long as possible. The high-class devils will battle against the angels with three pairs of wings or more. The others will be left for our legions, who will all work in teams of three to take down as many enemies as possible." The Satanchia Heir explained.
"I don't have a problem with the plan, but should we assist Lord Lucifer if we destroy all the enemies here?" asked the arrogant Lord Barbatos.
"No Lord Lucifer's orders are clear; we are to cause as much chaos as possible in the human world to draw the angels to us, while he deals with the Biblical God." Naruto replied. "But if you want to question his plan, you are welcome to do so to Lord Lucifer directly."
When Naruto said that he watched in amusement as Lord Barbatos visibly paled at the thought of questioning the Father of Devils' orders.
"Ah, no it was just a suggestion," Lord Barbatos stated and remained silent afterwards.
"So where were we? Yes, our goal is to cause chaos and destruction in the human world, and to slay our enemies. That is all. Now, is everyone ready to put an end to this war?" Naruto asked.
"YES!" the legions of demons shouted, ready to eliminate their hated enemies. A massive teleportation circle opened beneath Naruto and the demon army, and they were transported to the human world.
Flashback End...
Naruto saw the Archangel Raziel, the 'Angel of Mysteries', appear alongside Metatron, 'the Voice of God'. Both angels were powerful and in some cases a greater threat than Michael.
Both Metatron and Raziel are clad in heavenly armor similar to the one worn by Michael; theirs is golden with helmets that reveal their faces.
"Maria, Mio, and Grayfia attacked Raziel; if we let him roam free on the battlefield, it could mean our doom," Naruto said. "I will handle Metatron."
"Yes, sir," they answered in unison and went to engage the archangel.
Naruto flew at high speed at Metatron and fired a magic bullet at his but the attack was stopped by an invisible barrier.
Metatron's ability to manipulate sound makes him a formidable foe that is nearly impossible to defend against.
In terms of appearance, Metatron looked similar to Michael and Gabriel; both had blonde hair and green eyes. Naruto glanced at his lover as she was battling Raziel, who was using all kinds of elemental magic spells. He had the appearance of an elf, with black hair and eyes.
"You are really troublesome." Naruto stated as Metatron used a light infused sound bomb at him in the form of a small ball, the explosion killed some nearby demons as they defended themselves with magic to block the light magic.
"You devils are all the same, sowing the seeds of destruction wherever you go," the voice of God declared.
"Yes, that sounds like us. Are we going into battle or what?" Naruto asked with a mocking grin.
Raziel vs Mio, Maria and Grayfia...
Mio had to admit that the archangel before her was leagues above her in terms of his knowledge of magic; he threw elemental spells, curses, and all manner of magical attacks at the trio.
They were able to stay in the fight because of their determination and their gravity magic and Grayfia's ice magic.
Raziel appears to be able to use all magic, but he has mastered none. That was the biggest weakness that Mio discovered during their brief battle, so the only way for them to win is to use the powerful magic that they themselves have mastered.
"You filthy devils!" Raziel cursed as his hand was encased in Grayfia's ice magic. Meanwhile, Maria had used her Reverse Key Magic on herself, instead of making her grow, compressing all of her power into her tiny body, making her even stronger. With the addition of her Gravity Magic and Devil Gear, she was now a force to be reckoned with.
"You really don't sound like an angel, maybe a fallen one, but definitely not an angel," Maria stated as she landed a solid punch to the archangel's stomach.
Mio and Grayfia were supporting her with long-range attacks, keeping Raziel from catching his breath.
"What did you say, bitch?" the Archangel yelled while shooting spells of fire and water at Maria, which were infused with the light element to either weaken or outright kill her. His attacks were stopped by Grayfia, who used her ice magic to deflect them, while Mio used her gravity magic to pin the angel in place. Meanwhile, Maria delivered a punch infused with her gravity magic.
Raziel was knocked to the ground by that attack; the armor he was wearing was shattered, and he was bleeding from the mouth, but even still, he rose to his feet.
Metatron vs Naruto...
Naruto and Metatron were looking at each other neither blinking, waiting for an opportunity to attack. So far, the fight had been a stalemate, with Naruto unable to get through the angel's sound barrier and Metatron unable to land a strike with his sound magic.
The blonde devil began to ponder ways to break through the angel's sound barrier; he could brute-force his way through, but that would result in the destruction of both devils and angels due to the catastrophic side effects.
There is also the fact that the Satanchia clan head has to protect himself at all times from the angel-light infused sound attacks, which are invisible and can affect anyone who hears them.
Metatron was also trying to figure out the best way to attack the devil in front of him; the Satanchia was using his dark magic to negate the sound-based effects of Metatron's attacks and teleport away before he could be hit by any more sound-based powers.
The situation is a case of their powers being an almost perfect counterbalance to each other; the battle will be decided by the one who makes a mistake first.
The angel used his senses to gauge how the war was going; both the angel and the devil were either dead or dying, and the archangel begrudgingly admitted that the devils had the advantage in terms of power but they have the numbers.
Raziel vs Mio, Maria and Grayfia...
The battle with the angel had escalated to the point where Raziel had transformed into his true form – a being made of pure light, with three heads and six arms. His power had grown exponentially, and he now possessed numerous wings.
At this point, Mio, Maria, and Grayfia were all using their devil gear along with their devil magic to defend themselves, but they were struggling to keep the angel from killing them.
Naruto, seeing the trouble his Lovers are having against Metatron, had an idea; they were basically facing opponents that could counter their powers, and to defeat them, they would need to reveal more of their strength or switch opponents.
"Mio, Maria Grayfia," the blonde yelled getting their attention which Raziel used to attack them. The blonde devil appeared in front of him with a ball of darkness and blasted him away. "We are switching opponents, Raziel is mine."
The trio understood instantly what the blonde devil wanted and attacked Metatron; he was a better opponent for them. Maria's gravity magic was able to penetrate the angel's barrier, while Grayfia froze him when his defences were down.
Naruto is beating the stuffing out of Raziel, the Satanchia's dark magic is perfect in countering all the angel's spells.
Satans vs Biblical God...
Lord Lucifer had the biggest smile on his face; it was as if his mouth were glued open. The reason for this smile was that he had landed an attack against his father and he had bled.
It was the first time that he had ever seen his father bleed, and is overjoyed because of it.
He used the Devil Gear he created from the flesh of the Red Dragon and was boosting his power to the point where he was able to land a fatal blow on the Biblical God.
Everything was looking great until God began to shine brightly and summoned a holy sword, causing Lucifer's blood to run cold.
Naruto vs Raziel...
"You fucking devil trash! I'll kill you!" The angel cursed as he had been forced back into his regular form.
"Hmm...I am surprised you haven't fallen with a mouth like that." Naruto said casually as he launched a barrage of magic bullets at the angel, who retaliated.
"I will kill you!" Raziel declared as he cast spell after spell on Naruto, but nothing worked, and Naruto created a miniature black hole in front of him, absorbing all his attacks.
Naruto teleported in close and enhanced his body with chakra, magic, and activated his Devil Gear and penetrated through Raziel's chest; Samael's curse instantly took effect and the angel screamed in pain as he fell to the ground.
Metatron vs Mio, Maria and Grayfia...
The trio used teamwork to take down the Angel, with Mio blocking his sound attacks with her Gravity Magic and Maria using her own Gravity Magic to get through Metatron's sound barrier, leaving him vulnerable to Grayfia's attacks.
Not long after, the angel found himself on his knees as the trio got ready to deliver the finishing blow, but they paused as they felt an intense release of both holy and demonic magic in the direction of the battle between the Satans and the Biblical God.
