Chapter 265 The Initiation Ceremony of "Redemption Rose"
Upon arriving at the Aurora Society's headquarters again, Raphael's spirituality now roughly knew the location of the headquarters.
Previously, when Butis brought him into or out of the headquarters, he used the "Secret Realm" to conceal Raphael's senses, but this time he did not.
After the battle with the "Iron-Blooded Cross," the "Mysterious Saint" clearly trusted Raphael more.
Led by Raphael, they arrived at the sacrificial hall that reeked of blood. Freddy, the vice president in his fifties with graying temples, was already waiting there.
A shadow fell over his face as he said to Raphael, "Today is the gathering day for the members of 'Redemption Rose.' I'll first explain the origins of 'Redemption Rose' to you. We'll attend the gathering together in a little while, and at the beginning, the leader will introduce you to everyone."
Raphael replied solemnly, "Yes."
Freddy then glanced at Butis, and the "Sage of Mystery" bowed slightly in farewell.
The vice president began to explain: "Redemption Rose has a long history. Since the beginning of time, we have been loyal to the true Creator."
"You are the twelfth member of the Redemption Rose. The other six members are in the Forsaken Land, patrolling the Lord's territory and managing the Lord's Kingdom."
"After you join, six others will also be active in the North and South continents, carrying out the Lord's will and spreading the Lord's glory."
Raphael asked, "Are the other four members also members of the Aurora Society?"
"No, the only members in the Aurora Society are you and me," Freddy replied. "The other members have either secretly formed extraordinary organizations or established their own families."
"They rarely appeared in public, but played a huge role in missionary work."
This was unexpected by Raphael. He also had an "impression" of the "Redemption Rose". He originally thought that after the "first generation members" had basically all left, there were not many people left in the organization, and the remaining people were basically in the "Forsaken Land".
To his surprise, the organization was still very active.
Then Raphael suddenly realized: "The president of the Ironblood Cross, who shares our beliefs, is also a member of the 'Saving Roses'?"
"No," Freddy explained. "The organization's predecessor was the Red Angel Medici's Guard, and this Angel King was once an important member of the Redemption Rose."
"After Medici's fall, the Royal Guard spent a long time investigating the cause of death of this Angel King," but the results of the investigation were not made public.
"By the Fifth Age, they had formed the Ironblood Cross," and quickly recruited a large number of extraordinary individuals through the Hunter pathway.
The vice president paused for a moment, then added, "However, their vice president is from 'Redemption Rose'."
Raphael nodded, meaning that this was not an organization formed by "Redemption Rose," but it was under the surveillance of "Redemption Rose."
Freddy added, "Joining the Rose of Redemption means you can form an organization that is loyal to the Lord, and you will receive help from the Rose of Redemption when you form that organization."
"But you must guarantee that you and your organization are faithful to and loyal to the Lord," and are willing to accept the command of the leader, the Angel of Fate.
Raphael nodded: "I understand, but I don't have the strength or the intention right now."
Freddy smiled and said, "You are the most gifted chosen one I have ever seen, Lord. You will surely have your own organization in the future."
.
Raphael thought to himself: Should I swindle funds from "Redemption Rose" to establish an organization loyal to the "Lord of Evil Desire"?
But after thinking about it, I realized it would be easy to be exposed, so I'll talk about it later.
He smiled and said, "Thank you for your encouragement."
Freddy did not respond to Raphael's thanks, but simply said, "Before you join, you will have to decide on your code name."
The codenames of the members of "Redemption Rose" are all elements of creation. The current eleven members already occupy the elements of storm, water, spark, soil, air, light, lightning, ice, space, nature, and life. The leader's codename is "Angel of Destiny," but you can also simply call Him "The Leader."
Raphael thought to himself: I don't have many choices left. I definitely can't choose "time," in case it attracts Amon—although I've already made contact with Amon's clone, I still need to try to avoid further involvement.
He thought for a moment before saying, "Then I'll choose darkness."
"Okay," Freddy said.
Raphael then asked, "What's your code name?"
"Soil. Hmm, it's about time. Get ready, I'm going to connect to the Forsaken Land." Vice President Freddy said, snapping his fingers. A large mass of black shadow, like a viscous liquid, swept a dozen or so ordinary people from the side hall into the main hall.
These ordinary people were all bound by ropes that resembled black shadows, and their mouths were stuffed with a lump of shadow. They were men and women, their faces filled with fear, and they were lined up in an orderly fashion in the hall.
Freddy snapped his fingers again, and suddenly many sharp blades appeared from the viscous shadow. With a flash of black light, the throats of more than a dozen people were almost simultaneously slit open, blood spurting out. The eyes of the men and women were filled with despair or relief.
Freddy devoutly chanted before the enormous cross: "Creator of all things;
"You are the ruler behind the veil of shadows;"
"It is the fallen nature of all living beings."
"You sacrificed yourself and bore all the disasters; your brilliance will eventually illuminate the whole world!"
"Under your guidance, we have found salvation and a purpose in life. Please provide us with a place to discuss how to save more humanity and this world."
After the eulogy ended, Freddy withdrew the shadows from the hall, and the dozen or so people collapsed to the ground with thuds.
Raphael thought to himself: How ironic it is to sacrifice living people to a god whose "glory will eventually illuminate the whole world".
But in the next second, the dry hut in the hall seemed to be suddenly covered with a black veil, and the flesh and blood that had fallen to the ground turned into liquid and reformed into black phantoms.
These phantoms gradually transformed into human figures, standing in an arc in front of the cross.
Freddy stood in one of the empty spaces and pointed to the lowest seat, saying to Raphael, "You stand there."
Raphael nodded: "Okay."
As soon as he stepped into the arc, he felt a strange sensation from his spirit, as if he had suddenly entered into a continuous ritual.
An air of decadence permeated the atmosphere of this "ritual." Raphael found the environment quite comfortable.
A few seconds later, the black phantoms seemed to suddenly come to life and roughly depicted faces.
Then, from the direction of the cross, a ray of light suddenly appeared. This light quickly solidified, transforming into a tall, slender man with gentle features and a handsome face, dressed in a simple, plain linen robe. Layers of white wings grew from his back, and he floated in mid-air. His silver eyes were gentle yet tinged with indifference, as if he were observing fate and everyone in the world from the perspective of an outsider.
Ouro, the Angel of Fate!
Freddy and the other black phantoms bowed to the "King of Angels".
Ulorus said in a cold tone, "Let's begin."
He paused for a moment and looked at Raphael: "Today, a new member has joined us."
Just then, all the members felt an extremely oppressive gaze coming from behind the "Angel of Destiny".
That is the "true Creator"!
He was watching today's gathering!
