So that was the true power of an Angel, thought Axel, but then Peter and Maya rushed telling Lena to stop and suddenly 3 powerful evil beings appeared, floating in the air above the area that Lena was bathing with her white light and they were all very powerful.
Lena then stopped using her light when she heard her parents screaming her name, and then Peter and Maya put themselves in front of her and Peter told her, ?Go back to safety immediately with your sister, there is nothing you can do against them, GO!?
Just when he said that these 3 evil beings then each launched a black laser beam towards Lena.
Elias, who still had Willow in his arms, then teleported between Lena and her parents and he created a force field using only his God power as he wasn't in his Stage 3 anymore.
And then he said when the 3 laser beams couldn't pierce his force field: "What I hate the most is being ignored… What do you think my little princess, should I kill them quick or let everyone fight again to gain more experiences."
Willow then shrugged as she was still a child after all and the knowledge she had gained from her ancestors couldn't help her answer that question, so instead she asked him: "What are they? I can only recognize the General Wizard, but I have never seen the other ones before."
These 3 powerful evil beings were all wearing a long robe like magicians, the one Willow had recognized had a purple one, the one of his left had a black one and the last one wore a green long robe.
Peter then told them: "The one with the green long robe is a Necromancer, contrary to the General Wizard that you already know, this one can summon skeletons, and like the General Wizard he can summon a lot of differents Skeletons, his more fearful summon creatures being the Dragon Skeletons.
Then, there is the Swallower of shadows, the one with the black long robe and the master of all the evil beings of our World.
Each time him or one of his shadows kills someone, he steals theirs shadows and your friends, your master, your lover then reappeared in the form of a shadow and their levels stay the same.
They looked the same as before but their eyes are black and their bodies are surrounded by a black aura, they can use all their techniques and while the Angels can heal everything like Lena just did, the Shadow Angels do the exact opposite."
Elias then looked at Maya and he asked her: "This Swallower of shadows wasn't there the last time we came, right?"
Maya then smiled sadly at him and she told him: "He did already exist back then but as not lof of people were dying he never gained enough powers to be a threat for us."
Peter then told them: "It's because of these Gods that the Swallower of shadows has become so powerful, they had served him on a plate not only humans, Paladins and Angels, but also the most powerful of the evil beings.
And in just a few months he has become the new Master of the evil beings."
Axel who had joined them as Willow was there after all asked them: "Then why didn't Lilith take him back with her into her personal dimension?"
Maya then said to him looking at these 3 formidable enemies: "Because all 3 of them have become so powerful that she and Sliman couldn't control them anymore.
That's also why they weren't the ones to attack us from the start, because they are normally too busy dealing with the Angels and the Paladins on the battlefields."
Elias then looked at Lena and he asked them, "So they came for Lena's powers, is that right?"
Peter and Maya just nodded and Atlas, who had joined them when he saw Lena's parents starting to scream her name like something wrong would happened, then asked them: "Why? There are plenty of Angels already so why would they want to kill her?"
Peter then looked at him and he said" "Lena's powers is far superior to the others Angels, I don't know how it is possible and I didn't even know until I saw her spread her light so far. That's something none of the Angels here are able to do… It's a miracle."
And Maya then said, frustrated: "A miracle that has drawn all the attention of the most powerful evil beings of our World to her."
Elias then said to them, to appease them, "Do not worry, nobody will hurt Lena you have my word."
And Elias then asked them: "If this world still can fight this Swallower of shadows, then it means that you have found a way to kill these shadows, so tell me how we kill them?"
Peter then told him: "The light of the Angels remains our strongest weapon against them, but it can't eliminate the most powerful of them.
Otherwise, like any Mages and Fighters they have a source of energy that links them to their Master, if you broke it then the shadow vanishes."
Axel then asked them: "What about the Skeletons? How do we get rid of them?"
Maya then told them: "All the Skeletons, no matter what kind of Skeletons it is, has a green flame somewhere hidden in their body, you just have to strike them there with your powerful weapons to make them disappear."
Elias then looked at Axel and he said to him: "It's going to be fun soon, you should try to wake up Kevin otherwise he will be pissed off to have missed such a great opportunity."
Axel smiled and then he vanished, he knew that Willow was in good hands so he left her with her grandpa who didn't seem to want to part with her yet.
Elias then said to the others: "Let's retreat with everyone for now, and let's see if they will attack us or just leave."
