"It's not..."

After feeling the surprised gaze from Raven and the Crimson King, Omnia Cicada couldn't help but blink, then with a slightly stunned expression, began to speak:

"I clearly saw... No! These aren't Angels!"

As five eyes alternated opening and closing, swiftly scanning through the 'Angels' struggling and roaring in the star realm, Omnia Cicada frowned and said:

"Though their appearance resembles Angels, only the exterior matches them, within still lies the demons born from sin!"

These "Angels" are actually demons?

The other Two Pillar Gods were taken aback upon hearing this. The Crimson King, who had a deeper understanding of Old Soil, immediately reacted and asked incredulously:

"So the one who maintained the rules of the Hundred Thousand Abyss of Evil and saved these demons...is the master of Pure White Embrace, the 'Matreya' of the Angels?"

"If there isn't a second master, then it must be her."

"But isn't she an Angel?"

After listening to the conversation between the Green and Red Kings, Raven couldn't help but follow up with a question:

"Didn't you say before that Pure White Embrace and Hundred Thousand Abyss of Evil are mortal enemies, that their masters are never-ending foes with no possibility of cooperation?"

"That's accurately so, which means something must have happened here, but my eyes are being interfered with by the root..."

Watching those demons with Angel-like appearance continuously roar, Omnia Cicada's blue-green eyes were veiled by the multicolored light belonging to the source, unable to see the reason. With somewhat uncertainty, Omnia Cicada closed its sore compound eyes and tried to infer:

"Could it be... that the Matreya has mastered some method to transform these surviving elite demons into Angels?"

"You guessed right, child."

"?!!!" x3

"Do not fear."

Like milk mixed with honey, a sweet and soft voice flowed irresistibly into the ears of the Three Pillar Gods, soothingly streaming into their terrified hearts.

"Though you do not belong to me, but are 'children' enslaved by Number 1, I have no intention of harming you, nor will I let you poor children suffer any harm."

A towering six-meters-high white figure, using the roaring 'Angel demons' as a stepping stone, instantly traveled from an unfathomably distant place, landing in front of the Three Pillar Gods and extending gentle arms and white wings to warmly embrace the trembling gods.

With the irresistible embrace of the white figure, the terrified expressions on the faces of the Three Pillar Gods instantly softened. The bloodlines on the Crimson King's face and limbs receded, Omnia Cicada's deep blue eyes gradually closed, Raven...

Raven showed no reaction.

"..."

"..."

After sharing a somewhat dumbfounded glance with Raven, whose entire body was veiled by gentle Holy Light and could only see the dim figure, the figure blinked suspiciously and then, refusing to be thwarted, extended an arm for another deep embrace.

"Do not be afraid."

Seeing the Green and Red Kings beside him slowly covered in white, with a pair of white wax wings forming behind, the white figure could not help but nod slightly in satisfaction, then softly said to Raven, who dared not move:

"If Number 1 is your [Father], then I can become your [Mother]. Here, you will never be harmed, only receiving warmth and acceptance, child, you have no need to fear me."

"..."

"..."

What's going on? His fear remains completely unrelieved?

After releasing the embrace, the white Matreya looked down at Raven, who was still entirely in darkness, without any trace of white in sight, nor had white wax wings grown behind him, plunged into silence.

"You... you are the master of Pure White Embrace, aren't you?"

Stealing a glance at the Green and Red Kings beside him, looking at their struggling eyes and gradually transforming expressions of reverence, Raven felt a chill run down his spine, instinctively squeezed out a smile, and tried to flatter:

"We were following [Father]'s orders, serving as envoys delivering messages across dimensions for you... Um... So isn't this mission [Father] aware of, that's why you..."

"You're not afraid of me?"

Ah???

Ignoring Raven's words completely, the white figure leaned down, stared hard at Raven, who was left a little befuddled, and smiled:

"Well... You are a great master, and you just promised not to harm me, so I... have more respect for you?"

"That's not what I mean."

The blurry glow quickly receded, revealing a face half-covered in scales, a demon horn growing on one side of the forehead, and sulfur and blood swirling in the eyes, the Matreya leaned even closer, eyes expressing curiosity:

"Saying you won't be harmed was just to initiate [Pure White Embrace], not related to any promises. As for you slaves of Number 1, I generally kill each one I meet, and throw the corpse into Hundred Thousand Abyss of Evil, lest they pollute my embrace."

"?!!!"

"A bit of fear now, but the overall taste is still wrong."

Seeing Raven in front of her change expression, cold sweat slightly seeping from his forehead, the Matreya of Pure White Embrace frowned, pointed at the Green and Red Kings with eyes full of struggle:

"You are merely a Pillar God. Facing comfort from a root level, you should immediately be wiped clean of fear by [Pure White Embrace], begin transforming into Angel form and emulate other children, why no reaction at all?"

"Because his fear is not of you, Mother... Mother!"

As the word 'Mother' slipped out, seemingly completing some unknown transformation, the struggle in the Crimson King's eyes faded, the bloodlines covering the whole body were cleansed to white, and the white wax wings behind slowly solidified into clumps of white feathers.

Gathering the newly-grown wings on his back, deferentially kneeling on one knee towards the Matreya of Pure White Embrace, seemingly entirely losing self, the Crimson King reverently looking upon the Matreya's half Angel half demon figure, uttered admiringly:

"Raven's truth [Ang Zai Avoidance] is a unique truth born from [Disaster] and [Fear], its root is in regarding Food God as a disaster, using fear of Food God for nourishment, the stronger Food God's power, the stronger he becomes.

And the reason he rejects your charitable embrace should be related to this... indeed your figure is too gentle, failing to elicit fear in his heart. And he has obtained strength surpassing the Pillar Gods from Food God, thus harming your tender affection."
