Chapter Ninety-Four: Purifying the Darkness

"Lord Divine Celestial Maiden?!"

Pierced by someone's voice, the Divine Maiden regained consciousness. She tried to get up, but failed. A pained expression appeared on her face under the sharp pain in her abdomen.

"You can't get up yet, Lord Divine Celestial Beast. The wound in the abdomen is really serious. ”

Grabbing his arm, he said in a worried voice.

"Celestial Maiden?"

The Divine Maiden Beast looked at the Celestial Maiden Beast with a restless expression and let out a weak sound.

It was as if he was lying in the regeneration tank in the infirmary. She stared at the Celestial Maiden's face and the ceiling, trying to clear her memories first.

Remember fighting the biochemical Belfimon in order to prevent the enemy from approaching the Crystal Palace. Fighting alone, he was defeated, but he never gave up. In the end, the Divine Celestial Maiden was struck by the dark power of the Biochemical Belfimon and lost consciousness.

"What about the enemy? What happened to cherubimon and angels? ”

"We lost the Key of the Seal and were taken away, and the City of Angels, without the protection of the power of light, fell to the terminus of the forest, and a miasma filled the air. The kind Digimon have also lost their minds due to the miasma."

After hesitating for a while, the Celestial Maiden could only tell her the bad news, she didn't want to hide it from the Divine Maiden Beast.

"How could it be! Badamon is still in the Crystal Palace, and I must purify the dark power that has been unsealed."

Enduring the pain of the wound, the Divine Maiden wanted to leave the regeneration tank, but was stopped by the Celestial Maiden Beast.

"Lord Divine Celestial Beast, you are very weak now, and you can't leave the regeneration tank yet."

"Badamon's divine power is not enough to protect against the dark forces, and I don't want it to be polluted by darkness again"

It was not easy to restore the reborn 'Ultimate Angelmon' to its original state, how could the previous tragedy be repeated again. The heart of the Divine Maiden was filled with pain and guilt for the inhabitants.

"Kind Digimon are polluted by dark forces, and it is my duty to purify them."

Despite the Celestial Maiden's resistance, the Divine Maiden Beast still wanted to stubbornly leave.

"Please, stop in moderation! Lord Divine Celestial Maiden! ”

Seeing that the Divine Celestial Maiden Beast was obviously very fragile, it was still messing around. The heart of the Celestial Maiden Beast was distressed, angry, helpless, and pitying.

As if unable to suppress the impulse in her heart, she threw a loud tantrum at the Divine Maiden Beast.

"Why can't you take good care of yourself?! You've worked hard! You always care about your loved ones, but you never care about yourself! ”

"Seeing that you are always hurt, but you still have to carry everything silently. Everyone is sad! ”

"Celestial Maiden"

The Divine Maiden looked at her unexpectedly. She has always cared about herself, but she rarely understands her feelings.

"Anyway, you're seriously injured and need to recuperate! The troublesome matters were taken care of by the cherubimon, and it promised to find a way to purify the darkness as soon as possible. ”

"Whatever the dilemma, cherubimon can solve it well. What's more, the Divine Angel Beast has always been protecting the Bada Beast, and his strength is absolutely no problem. ”

Allowing herself to take care of the Divine Celestial, and not letting her drag her injured body to keep busy, is also the meaning of the cherubimon. As for the responsibility of protecting Badamon, she also has great trust in the ability of the Holy Angelmon. Because the Celestial Maiden Beast itself also hopes that the Divine Celestial Maiden Beast can temporarily put down its duties and recuperate from its injuries with peace of mind.

However, he was losing his temper with the Divine Celestial Maiden Beast just now, which was really rude. The Celestial Maiden Beast looked at the Divine Maiden Beast a little uneasily, waiting to be scolded by the other party.

However, what was waiting for the Celestial Maiden was not a scolding, but a pair of hands that were a little cold, but reassuring were holding their hands.

"Thank you, Celestial Maiden"

A small smile appeared on the Divine Maiden's face.

"Aren't you angry that I lost my temper with you?"

The Celestial Maiden Beast was a little weak-hearted.

"Celestial Maiden, you are always by my side and care for me. Thank you so much."

"You're welcome!"

The Celestial Maiden blushed slightly, revealing a shy smile.

Looking at the smiling face of the Celestial Maiden, the corners of the Divine Maiden's mouth also smiled. Her own physical condition, as well as the dangerous situation in the City of Angels, she knew very well in her heart. It's just that he saw that the Celestial Maiden Beast was caring about herself, maybe it was to live up to her wishes, so she forced a smile.

"I'll recuperate, and I'll leave the responsibility of the City of Guardian Angels to you."

Letting go of the hand it was holding, the Divine Maiden Beast whispered.

"Hurry up and help the cherubimon and the angelmon, the safety of the inhabitants is the most important thing. So, don't worry about me. ”

"Yes, Lord Divine Celestial Beast."

Nodding, the Celestial Maiden complied.

"You must recuperate."

Before leaving, the Celestial Maiden Beast glanced at the Divine Celestial Maiden Beast and instructed again. Finally, I walked out of the infirmary satisfied.

※※※※※

The Crystal Palace is now in chaos, and even though the miasma has not yet entered the Crystal Palace, the dark power unleashed by the sludge is enough to drive the Digimon completely below them into madness.

"Damn, you all sober up!"

Enduring the uncomfortable aura of darkness and the corrosion of all the armor of the Angelmon, the Angelmon can only control its strength and knock out the out-of-control Digimon one by one. The inhabitants polluted by the darkness are innocent, how can they kill indiscriminately!

In the battle with the Biochemical Rainbow Beast, he was also injured a lot, what is the pain?! It's enough to act!

Thankfully, his subordinate angel beasts have not been affected because the divine power they possess is not weak. To stop the residents who are in a frenzy due to pollution, this hard work can be undertaken and completed together with their subordinates.

"Slash the Angel Beast!"

At this moment, an angel beast flew over in a panic.

"Outside the City of Angels, there are Digimon tainted by miasma that are entering the City of Angels towards the border and beginning to approach the Crystal Palace, and the number continues to increase!"

"Damn, it's just this time!"

With a resentful expression on his face, he was very unwilling to slash the angel beast. There are enough Digimon inside the Crystal Palace that have fallen into a rage, but when there are still a shortage of manpower, new Digimon are being added outside to attack the City of Angels.

"I'll leave the Digimon that invaded the City of Angels to me, and you'll better focus on guarding the Crystal Palace."

A voice sounded, and a pink glow of holy power appeared and illuminated the corridor. Under the influence of the light, the Digimon polluted by the dark power held their heads in their hands and showed painful expressions. It was the 'Divine Bubble' released by the Celestial Maidenmon, and thanks to the effect of the light, the Angelmon slashed and stunned all the remaining Digimon.

Afterward, the Celestial Maiden came with Nephidimon and Pegasusmon, as well as Joan of Arc.

"Why don't you continue to take care of the Divine Celestial Maiden?"

Looking at the Celestial Maiden Beast, the Slashing Angel Beast was dissatisfied. After all, the Divine Maiden Beast was the most seriously injured of the three who fought with the enemy, and after the enemy left, he and the cherubimon were also very worried when they saw the injured Divine Maiden Beast.

"It was the Divine Maiden Beast who ordered me to assist you. Alright, we're running out of the numbers, so let's stop the chaos and buy time for cherubimon. ”

"It's up to you to make the dark disappear."

"Hey!"

Originally, she wanted to say more, but the Celestial Maiden Beast ignored the Slashing Angel Beast and left the Crystal Palace directly with her subordinates.

"It's too messy, isn't it?"

Slashing the Angel Beast said with a smile.

—1—

How can the dark be purified?

With a weary step, the cherubimon walked toward the audience.

The dark forces are completely beyond the purification range, and they must find another way to seal the overflowing dark forces again. I also promised that the Celestial Maiden would solve it as soon as possible.

If the Divine Celestial Maiden hadn't been seriously injured, and the Ultimate Angel Beast had been there, with its own strength, it might have been able to purify the darkness.

The crystal statues of the Three Angels are not only the existence of the sealing key, but also absorb the divine power, suppress the power of darkness, and provide energy for the City of Angels.

The destruction of the crystal statue causes the energy to stop, and the disappearance of the key to the seal lifts the seal of the dark forces. That's why there will be a miasma that will make the city of angels that has lost its energy fall to the ground. Now, the miasma continues to spread. If we don't stop it, I'm afraid it will continue to affect the entire forest. And, before finding a way, cherubimon intends to make sure that Badamon is safe. Even with the Divine Ring, Badamon's power is not yet fully resistant to the forces of darkness.

"This is"

Looking at the scene before him, Cherubimon's eyes widened in surprise.

The gate between the encounters and the throne of the three angels were destroyed, and there was a huge pit about two meters above the ground. Even the ceiling seems to have blown through something, and you can see the sky. Beneath the shattered walls, the Holy Angelmon lay unconscious on the ground covered in wounds, and Badamon was beside him. I saw that it stretched out its little paws and held its head, with an uncomfortable expression on its face, and the sacred ring it wore emitted a dim light.

"I was so careless that I would let the enemy infiltrate the Crystal Palace"

Clenching his fists, the cherubimon said unwillingly. Originally, I thought that there would be no enemies coming between the encounters, but I didn't expect the enemy to target Badamon and Divine Angelmon. The key to the seal was taken away, and the enemy must have deliberately threatened Badamon to say it.

"Badamon! Divine Angelmon! ”

Cherubimon ran over worriedly.

"Cherubimon"

Badamon's voice trembled slightly, and its expression was full of remorse at the sight of cherubimon's appearance.

"I'm sorry I told the enemy where the Key of the Seal is hidden"

"There are enemies infiltrating the Crystal Palace, we are attacked, I don't want to see the Holy Angel Beast that protects me killed"

"It's not entirely your fault, Badamon."

Cherubimon shook his head slightly. Even blaming Badamon won't help, and any kind Digimon wouldn't want their friends to be killed by enemies.

"Cherubimon I'm Sorry"

Sadly bowing its head, Badamon still apologized.

"Lord Badamon, you don't have to blame yourself too much"

The regained Divine Angel Beast gently stroked Badamon's head and said softly.

"I didn't stop the enemy, but I also have my responsibility"

"Holy Angel Beast, are you alright?"

Seeing the Holy Angelmon wake up, Badamon was very worried.

"Fortunately, it was not a fatal injury"

The Holy Angel Beast smiled bitterly. Then, as if sensing something, a serious expression appeared on his face.

"What happened? Why do I feel too foul of the dark aura? ”

"The Key of the Seal was taken away by the humans, so the seal of the dark forces was lifted, polluting the City of Angels. The good-natured Digimon are also going berserk because of the dark forces, and everyone is trying to find a way to stop the chaos. ”

Cherubimon succinctly stated the truth.

"Even if the inhabitants are purified, they will be polluted again, and the miasma can only disappear if the source of darkness is completely sealed. But the Divine Celestial Maiden Beast is now seriously injured, and I can't do it alone. ”

"The Divine Celestial Maiden is injured?! Is she okay?! ”

Hearing the news of the Divine Maiden's injury, Badamon raised his head and asked the cherubimon with great concern.

"She's recuperating in the infirmary now, and she'll be fine."

Cherubimon comforted Badamon. The Bada Beast let out a sigh of relief, but its expression became even more uncomfortable due to the intensification of the dark aura.

"The dark forces have rampaged the inhabitants and must purify the source"

The Divine Angelmon subconsciously looked at the uncomfortable Badamon, and the dark power also affected it. Perhaps because of wearing the Sacred Ring, the impact was greatly reduced.

Looking at the small white light emitted by the holy sword, the Divine Angel Beast made a certain decision, and could only gamble with new powers.

Because the digital world is in chaos due to human fault, the Divine Angelmon from the standpoint of humanity wants to do something for their homeland. They are also benefactors who help themselves.

"Cherubimon, can you bring me to the source of darkness?"

"Do you have a way to fix it?"

"I get new strength from my partner, maybe I can give it a try"

"Okay."

Cherubimon trusted the Holy Angelmon. Afterwards, it picked up Badamon and used its divine power to protect Badamon from harm. Protected by divine powers, the uncomfortable feeling was relieved.

Badamon can't be left here alone, it's safer to have Keruthan by its side.

※※※※※

In the middle of the square, no one's hands can touch it, and the sacred and beautiful statue no longer exists. All that was left was a red phosphorescent glow, like a whirlpool, and the simmering black sludge emitted unbearable heat. There is also a miasma that constantly overflows from the sludge. If a normal Digimon touches the sludge, it will be contaminated and gradually devoured. It's like a curse.

"It's scary"

Badamon, held in cherubimon's arms, shivered in fear as he looked at the sludge.

"Cherubimon, the key to the seal should have another purpose besides sealing the dark power, right?"

Enduring a disgusting miasma, the Holy Angelmon asked Cherubimon. He didn't think that humanity had taken the Key of the Seal to unleash the power of darkness, and that there should have been other purposes.

"It's the key to seal the Demon King, a very dangerous dark Digimon that has brought terrible calamity to the Digital World. The Digimon who fought the Demon King sacrificed too much to seal it away. ”

Omission some of the process, cherubimon glanced at Badamon and said succinctly.

"Is it to add one more Biochemical Digimon that evolved from humans?"

The Divine Angel Beast's face was gloomy, and the blasphemy of life was simply unforgivable.

"No, the sealed Digimon is **, not the DigiEgg."

Cherubimon corrected.

"That demon king can't be easily controlled, and its power is very strong. Lifting the seal without permission will only bring danger to life. ”

"Why should humans become enemies of Digimon? Obviously we can live in peace."

Badamon was heartbroken.

"Badamon-sama, there is a great possibility between humans and Digimon. Those who prevent peaceful coexistence are only a very small number of radicals. ”

The Divine Angel Beast spoke earnestly.

"Individual behavior does not represent the entire group, and humans and Digimon can 'coexist peacefully.'"

"Well, you said the same thing to your enemy."

Nodding, Badamon agreed with him.

"Alright, it's almost time for purification. Badamon, bear with me a little. ”

Cherubimon concentrated, and the Badamon in his arms, surrounded by a bubble of divine aura, flew away from his bosom and floated into the air.

"Holy Angel Beast, please help me purify the darkness together."

"I'll try my best."

Taking a deep breath, the Divine Angel Beast stretched out its holy sword. The small white ball of light lodged in the holy sword emitted a dazzling white light to envelop the Divine Angel Beast, and in the light, eight wings were spread, and the knight in silver armor appeared.

The cherubimon's body shone with white light, and the silver knight stretched out his hands to release the light of purification. The two rays of light came together to form a vast divine force.

Feeling the powerful divine power, the black sludge was even more uneasy, and the snake whips made of sludge struck the two quickly. When the snake whip touches the light, it is bounced away and dissipated.

Dazzling light struck the black vortex, purifying all the sludge from the depths of the vortex.

In the instant evaporation of the sludge, those filthy souls were all exposed to the impact of the holy light, and a terrible scream came from the depths of the whirlpool.

Protected by bubbles, Badamon just watched silently as the darkness was purified by the light, as if its body and mind had been robbed of its dazzling light.

The entrance to the 'dark world' was resealed, the world was completely changed, and the darkness was expelled by the light.

The vanishing dark vortex left no trace at all, and there was nothing around it. With the disappearance of the whirlpool, the miasma immediately dissipated and the air returned to its former freshness, and the frenzied Digimon came to their senses, looking at each other strangely.

The Celestial Maiden Beast flying above the City of Angels couldn't help but smile when she saw this divine light that purified the darkness.

Thank you for saving the City of Angels, the cherubimon, and the Holy Angelmon.
