American comics start with Zha Kang’s apprentice

"Gabriel, you are here to expel me, right?" Lilith was dressed in white and stood under the Tree of Life, stretching out her white arms. The sun shone on her flawless body, and the diamond-like radiance shone from her skin. Crystal clear and shining, she should have been a perfect creation like Adam, but her ego was so strong that she was unwilling to submit to Adam, to that man who would only cowardly kneel at the feet of God.

Gabriel did not say a word. He just stood there like a marble statue, with the tip of the flaming sword in his hand touching the ground. He saw the angel Ibril fall under the fiery passion of Lilith, and this was the source of the final sentence.

Even the holy angels cannot resist the temptation of Lilith. What a humiliation! But Gabriel was very curious. He didn't understand how Lilith did it. She was obviously just a mortal, and she was far inferior to them, the original creations of the divine light.

Angels are supposed to be pure and flawless, they are supposed to have no weaknesses.

But Lilith shattered this lie.

In his confession, Ibril accused Lilith of her sins. He put all the blame on this woman. He even vowed to build the Silver City and make it more dazzling.

Ibril did not lose his angelic appearance in the end. He was still the chief architect of the Silver City, and Lilith had to leave the Garden of Eden.

Lilith picked an apple, held it in her hand, and then walked towards Gabriel step by step. During this process, Lilith always stared at the archangel's handsome figure with her green eyes.

"You must leave, Lilith." Gabriel looked at the blood-red apple indifferently, "This is the Lord's greatest forgiveness. You must go through suffering. It is a sin that needs to be paid."

"What's the crime?" Lilith smiled, "Just because an angel fell in love with me? Just because I responded to him? Just because Adam couldn't trample me under his feet? Or because I'm just a woman?"

Gabriel was speechless. He heard Lucifer's rebellious words. Just like then, he was silent. He was not as excited as Metatron, Raphael or his eldest brother Michael. He just looked at the argument that had never happened before and the first argument since the birth of creation.

free.

What is freedom?

It seems Lilith asked the same question.

"I will leave, Gabriel." Lilith took a bite of the apple and handed it to Gabriel, "The Garden of Eden is just a cage. I'm tired of it. I want to see other worlds. Do you think that is suffering? You are wrong, Seraph, remember, I chose to leave on my own, just as I will come back one day."

"Such words will only increase your sins." Gabriel frowned, staring at the red apple with a small piece missing, "You can never come back."

"Don't be so absolute, Gabriel. At least I have seen through something. Nothing is eternal." Lilith grabbed Gabriel's hand, and she gently placed the apple on the archangel's palm. She turned around with a smile, and with her fiery red curls flying and her dress dancing in the wind, Lilith started walking. She did not look back. She kept looking at the desolate land under the setting sun in the distance, "This is the case with the Garden of Eden, and the same is true with the City of Silver. Even the entire creation will be destroyed, just like love, it always comes so fiercely! But when it fades, it is as silent and cold as the night! Farewell, Gabriel! We may meet again, I hope You will understand this truth then! I also want to see what you look like then!"

……

Memories are returning.

Gabriel seemed to feel the rhythm of life bursting out again in that empty chest.

The strong wind was raging, and all the blue flowers filled the sky with stars.

"You are so fucking crazy! Our goal is to reach the spirit of existence! We are about to succeed!" Loki roared madly, but he could not pull out the Leviathan that was burning with dark flames. Blade, "You will destroy creation! It is not just a shadow! It is like a dream that will be reflected in reality! This will also affect the tree of life..."

"This is a shadow of the old world, Loki." Gabriel said weakly while lying on the ground, "God is dead, you have seen it, right? What I want to crush is the creation of the past. Not only that, I Remembering everything, I saw Lilith.”

Loki was stunned, "Lilith? The first woman created? The mother of monsters who gave birth to Lilim? I thought she had died long ago..."

"No, Lucifer will not bind her, she is free." Gabriel grinned bitterly, "She deceived my heart, she made me lose all my strength, she allowed me to experience the world of mortals The pain and helplessness. It was she who planned everything. She was in God's consciousness. She used everyone and desires. She mocked God's great plan. She peered into the outside world beyond Taixu. Power, and she took advantage of that, and she began a test. Loki, look at the reflection of that tree of wisdom, where I buried something!"

Loki turned around in horror. He watched countless black blood vessels seeping out from the cracks in the tree trunks, and the web woven by those blood vessels began to divide the space in front of him. Loki deliberately ignored these abnormalities. He gritted his teeth and dug his hands into the cracks in the tree trunk. He stretched his neck and peered inside.

A dark apple seemed to be spinning in the dark filth like its core.

"Then this is our chance! The lie you deceived Gamaliel is the truth I see! Because this is the scattered shadow of the foundation of creation, and you are a sacrifice, Loki! You are closely connected with the ninth source of matter. Connected! You are the power! Your lie becomes a beacon! You attract the man who walks this path! He finds your voice! Your language!" Gabriel said, "Hold him! The Immortal The mortal is there! He is looking for the letter that does not exist! The twenty-third letter! Tell him! Make him our assassin!"

"The twenty-third letter?" Loki looked at the apple spinning in the dark and turbulent filth suspiciously. He knew that it was the reflection of wisdom, which was the foundation of creation, but what was the twenty-third letter?

The Kabbalistic Tree of Life is a dream of a broken Eden that exists within the collective unconscious and is falling apart. Those twenty-two letters are just a speck of dust that mortals accidentally touch the source in dreams and subconsciousness.

But there was never a twenty-third letter.

Loki is an old god, and he knows what is right for mortals, but he has never heard of this ridiculous thing. It is just like his lies, which are just distortions of the truth and...

In the flash of lightning, Loki seemed to understand something.

Creation, lies.

It's like a new doodle on the drawing board!

Loki plunged into the crack in the tree trunk. He allowed the black filth to wash over his body. He even felt that his existence began to become thinner, but he still stretched out his hand towards the black apple. He looked at himself His muscles dissolved and his bones began to disintegrate. He even lost his left eye and his ears could no longer hear any sound, but his tongue was still there and his mouth could still be opened.

A letter that had never existed left Loki's silent lie, and with the blood on his tongue, it converged into a line that penetrated the apple and pulled it toward Loki.

Thousands of black blood vessels separated everything in front of the dead tree, including Loki's body. He became fragmented between the strong wind and the black filth, but he turned around, with only a part of his broken bones left. At the front of the arm, the dark apple scattered pure white light.

"The last and first lie." Gabriel grinned lightly, and Loki finally understood what creation was.

The light began to spread outwards with Loki as the center. They replaced the darkness. They changed those dark blood vessels. They began to reorganize everything and bring about a new order.

Eventually, the entire space collapsed.

Gabriel began to fall, and the dark wings behind him continued to scatter feathers, and those feathers quickly disappeared.

The archangel closed his eyes, knowing that he had succeeded. They shattered the shadow of darkness and the old creation, but the existence is immortal. This is the real nirvana.

Life and death meet here, and everything begins to grow again.

Gabriel's eyes became blurred, his body was covered with cracks, and he was about to die physically and mentally. He had finished a long and painful life, and he was ready to accept his own annihilation and death.

But at this moment, a hand emitting golden light touched Gabriel's forehead.

Gabriel raised his eyelids curiously, and looked tiredly at a face shrouded in pure white light. It belonged to a childish girl. She was wearing a dark blue school uniform, and her eyes were filled with the brilliance of flames.

"I'm here to pick you up, uncle!" Elaine Belloc hugged Gabriel.

At this moment, Gabriel's eyes suddenly widened, and he burst into tears.

Because a new heart beats in that empty chest.
