Chapter 633 633: Taste Of Freedom



The shackles around the Devil kept breaking apart, one after another. As more and more chains broke, he was able to use even more strength to break the chains even faster. 

The chains that were made by a being that was considered to be the strongest broke like they were made of a thin layer of glass, unable to resist the onslaught of the brutal force resisting them. 

After an unknown amount of time, the chains were finally broken completely, freeing the Devil from its grasp. 

Even as the Devil was freed from the shackles, his strength didn't stop increasing at all. The entire space around him was breaking apart slowly. 

Even the Abyssal Beasts at the core of the Abyss sensed that strength yet terrifying energy which made them tremble to their core. 

A massive storm of terrifying energy spun around the Devil, only getting bigger and bigger with each passing second. Even Gabriel felt threatened from the storm, feeling as if he might be devoured if he got closer to the terrifying storm. He kept moving back slowly. 

After a long time, a powerful road was heard, coming from within the storm of energy. Following that roar, the storm disappeared, revealing the Devil who now had not a single trace of aura around him, as if he was now able to control his strength perfectly. 

Moreover, the Devil appeared slightly different now. His wings had disappeared. It was unclear if he could call them out again or not. 

At the same time, his skin appeared to be more human-like. If it wasn't for the identical horns on the head of the Devil, Gabriel would've even wondered if the devil had left and another human appeared in his place. 

Another thing that the person before him had in common with the devil were his pitch black eyes. 

The Devil glanced at Gabriel in the distance. However, there was no malice in his eyes. If anything, he revealed a strange sense of understanding. 

He didn't thank Gabriel for freeing him. However, he was somewhat grateful for the human that helped him. 

Initially, he used to hate humans a lot. However, he found some familiarity with Gabriel, since he was betrayed by the same people, trapped here. 

To him, Gabriel was less of a human and more of a person similar to him. 

"We didn't introduce ourselves. I am Gabriel." Not showing fear, Gabriel came closer to the Devil who simply frowned. 

"We are leaving..." He didn't respond more than he had to. 

He simply appeared next to Gabriel, surprising the young man with his speed. Gabriel couldn't be sure who was faster? Caen or this Devil? However, he had a feeling that the man next to him was slightly faster and he still hadn't shown all he was capable of. 

He raised his right hand. With a single movement of his finger, he managed to slice apart the space of the abyss which was said to be impossible to escape. 

The small spatial crack became bigger, until it was big enough for two people to pass through, and leave the Abyss. 

The Devil was the first to enter the portal. However, as he entered, his voice fell in Gabriel's ears. "I am Ezekiel..."

Gabriel couldn't help but shake his head. Even though the Devil appeared to be scary, but he wasn't truly evil, at least according to what he had seen so far. Moreover, Ezekiel also helped him get out of this place. He was much better than the people that wanted nothing more than to kill him!

"Thank you, Ezekiel..." He muttered before he also entered the portal, finally getting out of the prison. 

Even though he didn't understand how he was still alive without a heart, but at the moment, it didn't matter. What mattered was the destruction of people who took his family and his heart from him!

As Gabriel stepped out of the Abyss, he appeared within one of the multiple Lower worlds of the Universe. He could finally breathe in the fresh air that wasn't tainted by the Abyss! He could finally use his Elements. 

Moreover, to his surprise, as he came out, he noticed that his control over the Element of Light and Darkness had increased by a lot. 

He could also use his Elements freely now that he was outside, without needing that dagger. 

With a single wave of his hand, his clothes changed into something he made through the darkness. 

His entire attire changed to black, along with a fluttering robe on his back which was made from the darkness. However, that wasn't all. 

"Where are we?" He asked Ezekiel. However, Ezekiel didn't reply. 

Ezekiel simply stood there in a daze, looking in the distance. It was as if he still couldn't believe that he was finally out! After what appeared to be an eternity, he was finally free!

The world before him looked unfamiliar. He had forgotten what the outside world was like. All he remembered was the endless darkness of the abyss, and the silence where he could only hear the beating of his heart and nothing else. 

However, now that he was outside, he could hear so many more things. He could hear the rustling of wind against the nearby trees. He could hear humans talking, hundreds of miles away from him. He could hear the chirping of birds and even the sound of rain from far away. 

"Are you alright?" Gabriel asked, waving his hand before Ezekiel. It was only after Gabriel did that, Ezekiel came out of his daze. 

"I want to see how the world has changed in the thousands of years I've been trapped..." Ezekiel spoke. His curiosity took over him. 

After an endless nightmare, he finally wanted to see just what he had missed. 

Even though it was Gabriel's first time in this lower world, and he much rather wanted to go to the Realm of Gods first, he agreed. 

"Let me find where the nearest city is," he raised his right hand, creating small birds made from his shadow. However, Ezekiel simply shook his head, pointing in a specific direction. 

"People... There..." He spoke as he started flying. 

"Wait!" Gabriel flew behind Ezekiel who hadn't even disguised his horns.
