68: Locked in a Small Dark Room! (Not Me)
Heaven, a dreamlike place that should only exist in fantasy. It is the legendary dwelling of angels and the holy land that every believer of the Holy Church yearns to visit.
However, with the development of modern human science and technology, the idea that Heaven was merely a false product of religious culture gradually took root in people's minds. This word, once so sacred in the era when the Mystical prevailed, had gradually become a subject of jest among the people.
Of course, most humans would never know, even if they spent their entire lives searching, that this sacred legendary land was not a fabrication of their ancestors. It existed parallel to Hell, independent of the mortal world.
The so-called scientific theories that "proved" Heaven did not exist were actually just methods used by those who knew the truth to conceal the Mystical.
And since Heaven truly existed, the angels known as messengers of the gods were naturally a race that truly existed in the world.
It was just that... most of them had a bit of a difference from the angels in the legends spread by humanity...
"Achoo! Hmm? Why? Is someone talking about me?"
Our dear little sister Gabriel rubbed her somewhat itchy nose. At this moment, she was lying leisurely on her soft, comfortable large bed, enjoying the "offerings" her good apprentice had brought back for her from her trip to Heaven.
"Um... Teacher, are modern web novels really that interesting? You've been reading all night..."
Amya looked at Gabriel with a face full of helplessness. In one hand, Gabriel held a phone, in the other a bottle of Coke, and beside her was a whole circle of snacks like potato chips. Amya suddenly regretted bringing her back so many things.
"Oh my~ It's fine, Little Amya~ I've gotten bored of everything in Heaven. Things from the human world are so novel! And this brick called a phone is so convenient~ So many novels, I just need to download a few... apps to buy and read them directly! Under normal circumstances, so many books would take up a huge amount of space, and cleaning them up after reading would be such a hassle! Mm, I am very satisfied with this gift~"
"As long as you're happy, Teacher..."
Gabriel stuffed potato chips into her mouth while reading the web novel on her phone with rapt attention. She didn't even notice that her lace dress had slipped from her shoulder, directly revealing quite a beautiful sight.
Her slightly sloppy attire, paired with the bed full of snacks and drinks, the discarded peels and chip bags thrown everywhere, and her slightly curly hair caused by staying up all night reading novels... where was the dignity of a Seraph? She had completely turned into a degenerate otaku loli!!!
Amya felt that if those who still piously believed in the Holy Church saw Gabriel in her current shut-in mode, their minds would probably explode on the spot and their worldviews would collapse.
Gabriel in mythology: Sacred and beautiful, wielding the legendary holy sword that once guarded Eden and could spew flames in all directions. She was the most powerful guardian in the high heavens aside from the Angel Lord Mikali.
Gabriel in reality: Degenerate and cute, loved to act spoiled and act cute, a scummy loli who threw snack wrappers and drink bottles everywhere after eating and finally made her apprentice clean them up. Even that legendary Sword of Eden had been tossed aside and used as a tool to crack walnuts.
To be honest, Gabriel, as a Seraph, had to bear at least some responsibility for the angels being lazy to this extent.
If the upper beam isn't straight, you don't even need to think to know the lower beams will be crooked!
"Teacher... I think you really need to pay a little attention to your image... At the very least, you should pull up your clothes, right? If Lord Mikali saw you like this, she would definitely scold you."
"Oh, it's fine, Little Amya~ I have a brand new weapon against Big Sister. If I take it out, I guarantee she won't scold me... Whoa! What? How is it already finished? Let me check the last update time... It was two months ago! What is wrong with this author? Why stop updating for no reason? And stopping right at a crucial point in the plot? On purpose!?"
"Oh? Let me see?"
As a former web novel enthusiast, the moment she heard about a hiatus bastard, Amya immediately became interested. Her little white head instantly squeezed Gabriel aside.
"This page is... Pineapple Bun?"
Well, the app was correct. It was normal to have hiatus bastards there.
"This author..."
Amya looked at the Chiikawa emoji on the author's page. Although it was a new account with only one book, based on the title, style of the book, and various other clues, Amya still guessed who it was.
"I've read his books before. It's normal for them to die inexplicably. If I remember correctly, I think he even won a Pineapple Bun Gold Award once, but then that book died inexplicably too."
"Wow! How can there be such a bad person in the world!? Won an award and still goes on hiatus for no reason? That's too mean!"
...Actually, Amya really wanted to tell her master that these sudden deaths were actually the better option. After all, the mortal world had even more abstract "Old Thief" level existences.
That's right, she was talking about that bastard of an author who didn't have a single completed full-length novel, and whose most famous series clearly had five books but readers only counted three!
"Damn it! I really want to go to the mortal world, drag that author out, and lock him in a small dark room until he finishes writing!"
"? Great idea! But not very feasible!"
To be honest, when she heard her teacher's angry words, a genius idea suddenly popped into Amya's mind.
That was to buy the complete set of "The X Clan" by that bastard author for her teacher to read. She estimated that in less than two days, her teacher would be cursing and putting her angry words into practice.
Of course, it was even more likely that she would just stab him.
"Damn it! I'm so mad!"
Gabriel, her little face puffed up with anger, grabbed the bottle of Coke next to her and chugged it. But because her mouth was too small, most of the Coke leaked out, soaking a large patch of fabric on her chest.
"Teacher... watch your image..."
"What is there to watch out for in my own room?"
"Oh? Is that so?"
Just then, a gentle, sweet voice drifted over from behind Gabriel. Hearing this voice, Gabriel instantly trembled, and the phone in her hand slipped right out. She stood petrified, motionless.
"Little Li... Didn't I tell you before that even in your own room, you need to maintain basic hygiene and cleanliness?"
