The Heavenly Prison’s lowest layer was the fourth basement floor.
This is the place where the Fallen Angel’s who’ve committed the biggest crimes are taken to.
“My eyes feel irritated.”
I squinted my eyes without thinking.
That was because countless lightning strikes constantly came pouring down from above out heads.
One must constantly be showered in electric currents.
That’s the penalty of the lowest layer.
“……Even I……can only endure a week if I stop using my Heavenly power…… we have to hurry up and…… save big sister……”
“Ababababababa! Feels super good!”
“……What are you doing?”
“Wups, my bad. When I saw that thunderbolt, my habit of wanting to get showered by it appeared subconsciously”
“Moderately put, you’re crazy……”
Seriously?
『I agree as well』
Even Naviko…….
“Anyway, we haven’t found a gatekeeper yet, huh. Does this floor not have anyone who’d be fit as a gatekeeper after all?”
“How convenient……”
Hm? Wait a minute.
“It looks like Lucifer isn’t on this floor either, you know?”
“……Eh?”
“I covered the whole floor with my 〈Detection・Extreme〉 and I haven’t detected any living beings with her presence.”
“……That can’t, be……Big sister should have been on… the lowest layer……”
“No, it’s true. There’s probably a floor even deeper down than this one.”
“A deeper floor……?”
“There might be a hidden floor.”
However, as far as I could see with 〈Detection・Extreme〉 there wasn’t anything that looked like stairs.
“Maybe there’s a different way to get to the lower floor. Shall we start looking?”
However, that lighting shower is a problem.
We’re still able to avoid it because we’re just off the stairs, but if we try to move around we’ll continuously get hit. It kind of seemed like the damage tile in DragX Quest.
“I’ll spread……a barrier……”
Gabriena spread out a barrier made out of Heavenly Power to ward off the lightning.
While the loud sound of thunderbolts hitting the barrier was echoing above our heads, I and Gabirene searched the floor.
It was the same for the floors before this as well, but there where prison cells were installed here and there, Fallen Angels who committed crimes were held in.
There was only a considerably small number of them on the lowest floor.
There were still some Fallen Angels that tried their best to ward off the thunderbolts raining on them with their Heavenly Power, but there were also those that already got burned to death.
“Ooh, this looks suspicious, doesn’t it?”
There was a small room that seemed unnatural in the depth of the floor.
Nobody was inside of it, but there was a crystal ball floating in the centre of the room.
“This……is probably something that will cause teleportation……”
Apparently, it’s possible to teleport with this and transfer to another place.
Lucifer might be over there.
As it seems like it uses Heavenly Power to start up, I left it to Gabriena.
When she poured her Heavenly Power into it, bright light gushed out of the crystal ball.
Before I even noticed Gabriena and I were transported to a different place.
“I, I see. A different dimension, huh?”
“For the Heavenly Prison, to have something like that…….”
A pure white space was spreading out around us and scaffolds were floating in a straight line.
It’s probably a phenomenon caused by Heavenly Power as well, however, the place the scaffolds continue towards seemed as if it was covered in a haze and not really visible.
Anyway, it seems like we have no other choice but to follow those scaffolds.
“Oh my, If that isn’t Gabriena~ Long time no see”
I suddenly heard a voice, and a single angel appeared from beyond the haze.
No matter how I look at him he just seems like some geezer dressed in female clothes……
He’s a muscle giant, whose rough looks would make crying children cry even harder.
However, he perfectly wore makeup and pink frilly clothes.
“Aan? Who is a geezer?”
He intensely glared at me!? Though I was just thinking that in my head!
“By the way, you’re an angel I haven’t seen before, have I?”
Gaybim turned a suspicious look towards me, who transformed into an angel with the skill 〈Transformation・Extreme〉.
“……But aren’t you a fine young man.”
Please stoooooooop!
Gabriena, who hardly showed any expressions, also grimaced.
Angels also were creeped out by him.
“……Gaybim……is the Chief Guard of the Heavenly Prison……..Although he’s Second rank Cherub…….. His strength is of the highest class in the whole Heavenly Realm…… For him to possibly be in a place like this……”
Looks like she wasn’t frowning because of that appearance of his.
Rather, that guy’s the Chief Guard, huh……?
Shouldn’t they rather have put him into the prison?
If one just looked at his appearance I would have judged him to be a Fallen Angel.
“But, isn’t that strange? Have you been given an entrance permit for the Heavenly Prison, I wonder?”
Gaybim put his forefinger on his thick lips and cutely tilted his head. Though it’s absolutely not cute.
“……We don’t have anything like a permit…… Where is my older sister?”
Gabriena, who seemed to have judged that it’s impossible to evade his words, asked him straight out for the place Lucifer is held in.
“Ufufu. What heart-warming sisterly love. But, while it’s a shame, it seems like it brought about the opposite result. This is the Heavenly Prison’s hidden realm. Even though you’re a seraph, if you break into this place, you won’t be able to just go scot-free, you know~?”
“……I’m prepared…….”
Gabriena manifested a Heavenly Power Spear.
Looks like she intends to eliminate that monster by force and push her way through.
“However, it’s hard for me to face Gabriena-sama on my own, as I thought. That. Is. Why…….”
At that moment.
A large quantity of Fake Angels suddenly appeared in around us.
“Ufufu, I told you this is the hidden realm, you know? We made preparations for intruders trespassing like this”
Judging by his status, Gaybim certainly had strength equal to Gabriena.
On top of that, he had all these Fake Angels.
It might be damn hard to break through with force after all.
“However, at times like this, we should take her out again”
I used summoning magic.
“Haah, I could finally shake them off……Seriously, what were those weird Nopperabou (Youkai who don’t have faces) Angels… Eh!?”
“Belfeene, I’ll leave them to you again”
The Fake Angels reacted to the Archdemon, who suddenly appeared, all at once.
Moreover, Gaybim’s attention,
“A Demon, in a place like this?! Kuh, we have to quickly eliminate that hateful being!”
Was also completely focused on Belfeene.
“Why do you always push that role onto meeeeeeeeeeee!?”
While Belfeene was running about with Gaybim and the Fake Angels following her, Gabriena and I went ahead.
What, the hell……?
And then we reached the hidden, true, lowest floor.
There――
“Haah, haah, haah! More, Mooore! Hit me hardeeeeeeeeeeer!!!”
“Nooooooo, I already said I don’t want toooooooo! I don’t want to see the happy figure of a maaaaaaaaaaaaaan!!!”
There we could see the figure of a handsome angel on all fours, naked, and Lucifer who hit their asses with a whip while they cried.
