[Name: Izakiel Hebi no Ame

Description: A man who was betrayed by everyone in his entire life. His purpose of living is to make sure he gets his revenge and also finding someone he can actually put his trust into.
He has been living his life trying to find fun in everything he can and that has driven him to do things that are both beyond what an Angel is capable of and beyond what the Devil could think of.
He holds a special power that he himself doesn't know, strong enough to dethrone even the most powerful of the Gods. Though if used wrongly, he might end up destroying the entire universe. Though that also depends on who uses this power…

His silvery gray eyes looked at me with fear in them. They were shaking a lot as it was hard for him to even look at me, yet for some reason, he didn't dare to stare away from me. I observed him with a keen expression as I read his status over and over again.
"What's your purpose in life, kid?" I asked him with a slightly interested gaze.
"I… don't really have a purpose. I just want to live my life freely enjoying whatever I do, with the best of my ability,"he blurted the truth without hiding even an ounce of information. Perhaps the Clinging Medusae, or maybe the smiling Angela and Miya, who were standing beside me, were the reason for it? Anyway, I continued asking,"So there is no specific end goal for you?"
"I… don't have a serious wish like that… if I were to say, then there is one thing…" he spoke as his voice turned low and I narrowed my eyes with curiosity,"and what could that possibly be?"
"Ummm… I want to meet the ONE,"he spoke with his cheeks turning a bit red. It was as if an adult was telling about his childish dream.
"The ONE?" I asked as I grew confused, wondering if the 'ONE' he was walking about was Aether? I mean his blessing does show his name as 'The One'
"He is a legend from our world. The guy who was the reason that our race exists in this universe,"he spoke with his expression turning bright. It was the same bright expression that Armes showed, that Miya showed when talking about Aether. It's really Aether, isn't he?
A wry expression formed on my face as I thought,'that guy got quite a Rizz, doesn't he?' before continuing,
"Can you explain the things in a bit more detail?"
He nodded as he told me the tale of the first Slythreens, the one who was saved from dying civilizations. To be precise, the first Slythreens were Chimeras and were part of a failed experiment. It was 'The One' who completed the experiment, giving them a life that they could live out. Then he helped them take a stance on another world, Inerat Planet, where they grew, thrived, multiplied, creating an entire race out of a dozen peoples.
"The records are passed from generation to generation and everyone takes 'The One' as a God, our founding father, the one who helped us. Every Slythreen has an unshakable respect for that person, but sadly none of us were able to meet that guy,"He spoke with a blissful face as he looked at me.
"If those things happened at the start of your generation, don't you think that guy might have died or something?" I asked curiously, and he turned really sad before nodding at me,
"It is true. But there are certain legends that tell that 'The ONE' is an immortal that will live for eternity. He is just hiding somewhere in seclusion, living his life peacefully."
'Sadly, Aether did die. A natural death, peacefully like he wanted, as a normal human,' I thought as I recalled the information that I had received previously. Though, to think he was involved even here,
'Just how many things was he involved with?' I sighed as I recalled that guy's smiling face.
"Well. Sounds like a myth, really. So, is there nothing else that you want? Are you sure? I was trying my best to find a reason to let you live, you know?" I spoke while grinning inside, and his face turned white in a second. Shocked, he looked at me before speaking,
"Wait! Wait! Wait! I was joking! I was joking! I suddenly remember something about me wanting. Yeah, I do,"He hurriedly spoke as he looked at me with a dry face.
"You do?" I asked with a slight chuckle and he nodded before speaking,"I was actually looking for a sword. A poison sword that could engulf an entire planet… I… needed it to sell it and buy something?" he spoke as he gave a wry smile. His eyes drifted to the side as he tried avoiding my gaze, and I sighed before speaking,
"All right, that's enough. Here is the deal: work for me and I won't treat you bad. But if you end up hurting anyone who is mine, I will kill you."
I threw my demands at him without beating around the bush anymore. I should really stop being a nice person, I suppose? Anyway, if he accepts it, it's fine, otherwise I will convert him into Cronas.
"Sure,"he smiled brightly as he looked at me. Perhaps this was what he wanted too?
"As long as I get to live, I will do anything you want,"he added with a slight chuckle. Hmmm? Perhaps he is used to dealing with it like that, that my method of 'playing nice' didn't work on him. I guess, I should up my communications too.
'But then…' something came into my mind as I asked him,"what was the poisonous sword that you were talking about?"
He looked at me with his eyes widening a little as he questioned,"you are interested?"
"Why else would I ask?"I looked at him with a questioning look and he nodded,"well. It's a sword being sold at the black market. It's at the auction site on the next planet. That was actually the reason I came here. If you want, I can tell you how to get that sword… but…"
'Next Planet? There are people living there? Wasn't it supposed to be a dead planet where life was never possible?' Too many facts hit me at once. I already knew about aliens and stuff but the next planet, which was nothing but desert? Man, I need to up my knowledge.
"But what?" I asked, and he spoke with a slightly dry voice,
"But someone else, someone really powerful, wants it. I don't know how powerful you are, but I still don't think it's a good idea to take the sword. Just saying."
I observed him with a curious look as I asked,"who is that entity?"
"Not an entity… a family. The Grimvalour Family," he answered with slight horror in his eyes.
