An Assistant to the Angel of Death
63

***

After Gabriel arrives and tells the story Claude and Krud are investigating about the chaos in the world. Claude returns home to Lyon to return to Marquez's family home.

In the horse-drawn carriage Claude continues his conversation with Gabriel in human form as Erick de Alger. "The letter of Baron's death will soon be given to you."

"How about Granduke's death warrant?" Claude asked this because Claude was afraid that he would not have time to do so because the death penalty given by the King would soon be imposed when the trial was over.

"It seems that this will be a little difficult, as it should have been Granduke dead for quite a while. But I hope you can handle this on your own. I'll watch you replace Krud."

"But I'm still wondering why Krud should rest for a year? Whereas against the Granduke he didn't do much." This was a question Claude had wanted to ask before. Seeing Krud coughing and spewing blood like that night. Claude felt that was not a good sign.

"You just ask him directly during the next year's wait. Because he wouldn't tell me anything about his serious injuries.

Honestly, I was hurt that night just because I was exhausted after working all day. But Krud is different there is a little bit of fighting so it drains about 89% of his pure power.

it seems that the owner of that power is not an ordinary person, maybe Krud is being unlucky to meet a high-level noble."

"High nobility?" Claude tried to think if Charmy said anything to Vischa, but I don't think that's possible. Charmy's most anti talk to Vischa.

"I'd better explain the characteristics of your next target. Your target this time is Baron Prieto he is an ordinary merchant, but the problem this time is that the item he traded to Viscount Hawks is a very rare item.

It was a token stone that could see angels as well as demons, not only was it able to defeat angels and demons by mixing them with level seven magic and above.

there is indeed a fee that he must pay when using the token stone.one of them is the rest of his user's life. Originally the stone was only made for the noble army to eradicate the demons that made trouble in the world.

But I didn't expect it after the special forces had disappeared that many such stones were circulating among the humans, even the money thing I didn't expect was that they used the stone to kill the angel of death and the angel of sanctification

Now the angels really lack members, so the juniors who have just graduated are forced to immediately jump into the hardest thing.

Like Krud in the early days of his debut, but I did not expect that he could defeat Espen who had been for thousands of years a fugitive of life-seeking angels. Now he is appointed as a senior archangel among the other angels of death. He also got many gifts as well as other advantages by the gods. That brat makes others jealous."

"What's? He beat the Espen and lived a good life?" Claude did not expect that the Espen he had defeated a few years ago was such a high-ranking fugitive that Krud himself gained the affections of the gods.

Claude was also upset. Krud who uses himself gets a lot of benefits while Claude now has to move under to be his assistant.

"Gabriel we better continue our conversation on the previous subject."

"What would happen if the stone fell into the hands of the Viscount Hawks?" Claude was curious about every mission to kill the humans who had the rest of the time to run out, there was always a godly reason behind it all. it was as if all the tasks he gave guided Claude to solve the problems that were happening in the world today.

"Viscount Hawks was a noble who possessed eighth level magic. While the Baron only had a tier three.

Initially Viscount Hawks will be crowned a higher nobleman. but one mistake that cannot be forgiven is his conspiracy with the bandits who took part in the tribute revealed secretly by the royal special forces."

Claude began to understand the root of the problem. The crux of the matter when viewed from an ordinary point of view was as if Viscount Hawks was the one who was troubled and should have been the one who was killed but when he saw the Baron could sell the extremely rare token stone that was his achievement it must not be easy.

"I see I think these two people are both troubled.I have to investigate both."

"I think. You're right, both are troubled because even Baron Prieto can't possibly get that collarpiece to sell easily. "

Gabriel agreed with the thought that Claude had given him for granted, as it seemed that Gabriel had the same thought as Claude.

"Claude! looks like your carriage is about to reach your residence. I have to return to the upper world to retrieve the full record and the death certificate of the Baron."

"Alright, give this message to the krud."

"What do you want to tell him?" Gabriel said before he was about to leave the carriage.

"Hey stupid you have to get well before I kill you, that's my message." Claude confidently gave a message to Krud who had to undergo a period of rest for one year.

Gabriel understood and would immediately convey it as soon as he reached the upper world, just as the chariot stopped Gabriel flying away towards the upper world. Claude hopes Krud will recover because Claude Krud is far more fun than Gabriel.

After flying across the sky, Gabriel reached the upper world. The white and holy shades of the upper world are so crowded with angels who are busy with their respective work.

not even one of them was lazing around, except for the angel who was in the recovery room. As soon as Gabriel set foot to immediately go to the area of the angels of death.

the atmosphere instantly turned a gripping death aura piercing all the way to Gabriel's pores. Gabriel goes in line to get the death certificate printed into paper through a large automatic monitor, which is one of the god's creations.

it didn't take long to queue up Gabriel directly took the death letter using the names Claude and Krud. The paper came out. There were two different papers printed by the monitor. after that Gabriel went to the angel of death's resting place.

Gabriel had to walk a little far from there, before he finally arrived and met the crud
