Chapter 58: Gabrielle And Sophiel

After getting my medicines from Serena, I had sandwiches outside and then started driving back to home. I was fifteen minutes away from my home when I saw two streaks of purple and green light pass by like a comet above my car. The car shook a little because of the shockwave from the fast-moving object, but I was glad that there was no damage and the car was still under my control.

Before I could think what those lights might be, I saw that they had landed on the road a few hundred meters ahead. After looking at those two persons, I realized that they were angels. They both stood in the middle of the road with their wings unfolded.

I felt like I was an angel attracting magnet. So many angels fall around me!

While looking at their posture, I could tell that they intended to stop me and I didn't want to crash on them either. I stopped the car in front of them and stepped out. As I did, they retreated back their wings.

They were wearing formal clothes with the sleeves of their shirt folded. Both of the women were so beautiful that I would have known that they were angels even if I hadn't seen their wings. Every angle I had seen had otherworldly beauty, and they all exuded a charm that can't be described but can be felt.

The angel on the left had long purple hair and the one on the right had slightly shorter green. I wondered why angels come in so many colours even though they belong to the same species. Do they, perhaps, dye their hair? But that made little sense for the whole species to do so.

Those two angels looked at me with serious expressions, as if I had committed a grave sin. I was ready to scare them with my Black's name if they tried to wrongfully accuse me.

"Hello, Eve. I am Gabrielle and this is Sophiel." The angel with purple hair introduced both of them politely.

"Do you have any idea where Black... I mean One-winged angel is right now?" I hurriedly asked when I realized that they meant no harm. They were angels and the only ones who could tell me where my Black might be.

"We don't know..." One of them replied. It was an instant disappointment, but I quickly got over it. I was glad that I didn't raise my hopes up too high.

"How may I help you?" After all, they wouldn't appear in front of me just to say hello.

"We were ordered to guard you and not appear in front of you. But you see, there is a powerful demon near your place. Even though we are higher angels, we can not deal with that demon." Gabrielle's face reddened a little as she spoke. "So we hope that you do not go there."

"How long have you both been guarding me?"

It was surprising to find out that angels were guarding by my side without me knowing anything. And not just any angel. But higher angels! Black had told me about the hierarchy of angels. There were half-angels, angels, ranked angels, higher angels, seraphs and the legendary angels. The higher angels were just below the seraphs, and their number was barely enough to reach triple digits. Two of those higher angels were guarding me!

"I guess five months?" Gabrielle wasn't that sure.

"A hundred and seventy days." That angel with green hair commented. So it was just around the time my Black left.

"And if I may enquire, why are you guarding me? I am an ordinary person. I don't think that I need any protection."

"The one who can tame that person is anything but ordinary..." Gabrielle lightly chuckled and I felt that her words were familiar.

"Shh... Mr Rai ordered to guard you." Sophiel nudged Gabrielle lightly with her arm and answered me. Now, who the hell was this Rai guy!

"I don't know any Mr Rai. Are you sure you got the right person?"
