Miss Witch, it's time to clean up the entries

Chapter 373 God's Child, Born an Angel

Li En devoured Gari and gained Gari's authority. All of this was accomplished within the domain where his godhood and the labyrinth were combined. In the battle with Gari, the remnant soul that originally belonged to Seth Frank was completely dissipated, causing Li En to lose the labyrinth domain. However, compared to the domain of a legendary knight, Gari's authority was clearly more powerful.

Li En gained the power of Calamity, Giants, and the Creator of the Elves, while Sophie, whose attributes were similar to his, became the greatest beneficiary angel. This was because Li En possessed the authority of Calamity, which meant that the power of Calamity and natural disaster that Sophie could use would become even stronger.

An angel's power depends in part on the god they believe in, especially angels of the same rank.

Because he had absorbed the power of the god, Li En was extremely exhausted and fell into a deep sleep, both to digest the power of the god and to repair himself.

Part of his consciousness transferred from his sleeping main body to his clone.

The clones that Fia created for Li En, Sophie, and the others using magic are theoretically also Li En, Sophie, and the others themselves. They are equivalent to replicas made from their flesh and cells, and they operate strictly according to predetermined ideas and behavior patterns, similar to a pre-programmed program.

This clone carries most of their humanity, continuing to interact with old friends and relatives in the secular world, stabilizing their anchor.

Li En was able to sense everything his clone experienced, including the people he saw and the things he went through.

However, if Li En does not wish to experience it, she can completely separate from her clone.

While Li En's main body is in a deep sleep, his consciousness can still be fully awakened from his clone.

Just now, his consciousness had completely descended into his clone, taking over the body in the study.

On the desk was a thick stack of documents, including many important national matters that required the emperor's approval and stamping. Li Ensong loosened his round-bellied fountain pen and looked towards the door.

He heard hurried footsteps approaching, and seemed to see a servant rushing towards him, speaking to him with a mixture of joy and nervousness.

"Your Majesty, Queen Catherine is about to give birth."

Li En immediately stood up and walked towards the door. Before the servants even reached the door, Li En was already hurrying towards the Black Queen's palace.

In the corridor, the servant bumped into Li En and immediately bowed.
"Your Majesty the Emperor..."

"I see."

Before the servant could speak, Li En had already left.

The attendant remained kneeling on the ground, inwardly marveling at His Majesty the Emperor.

He quickly got up, trying to catch up with His Majesty the Emperor, but His Majesty's figure had already disappeared.

Li En arrived at the entrance to Catherine's chambers, where Catherine's screams could be heard, along with the anxious urging and encouragement from the midwives and maids.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, almost there, almost there, push harder, push harder!"

"Your Majesty, hold on, do not give up."

"Your Highness, breathe, breathe, take a deep breath."

Catherine gritted her teeth. Her soft white pajamas were already completely soaked with sweat, and her black hair curled and clung to her neck. But she couldn't feel the stuffiness in the room at all. The tearing pain in her body was tormenting her. Her eyes gradually became unfocused, and her fair, almost transparent skin was covered with tiny blood vessels.

She felt as if she had completely lost her power, even after drinking the magic potion given to her by the apothecary.

Until Lee Eun took her hand.

"Your Majesty, you...you cannot come in."

The midwives and maids wanted to kneel, but Li En stopped them.

"Keep doing your work."

"This is a filthy place; you must not enter."

The maid advised.

Li En shook his head and squeezed Catherine's hand. "For me, there is no place more sacred than here. I will witness the birth of my child. Catherine, thank you for your hard work."

Li En gently kissed Catherine's forehead, and a healing power enveloped her entire body, restoring her strength.

Catherine's eyes gradually cleared, and she nodded slightly to Li En, "I can definitely do it."

Even though Catherine was putting on a brave face, Lee could feel her life force slipping away.

Her body was too weak, while the child in her womb was too strong.

This child wants to absorb all the nutrients from the mother's body before being born.

Lee cut his wrist and made Catherine bite it, swallowing his blood.

Even though it's just a clone, Li En still has divine blood flowing through his body, which is the best healing agent and can replenish the nutrients that Catherine lacks.

Normally, Catherine would never have been willing to do this, but the situation was special, and she could feel her own powerlessness.

She knew that if she didn't do this, she might die here and never see her child for the first time.

For the sake of her child, she worked hard to absorb Li En's blood.

The divine blood gradually restored Catherine's strength.

Finally, the tearing pain in my body disappeared.

"Wow--"

The child's cries echoed throughout the entire palace.

At the same time, a holy light illuminated the entire palace and even briefly lit up the sky above Yalong City, breaking the silence of the night.

"It's...it's an angel."

The midwife and her maids all knelt on the ground. The midwife held the newborn baby high in her hands and said, trembling.

They couldn't tell whether he was an angel or a demon, but the little wings the child was born with were enough to prove that he was not human.

Looking at the child's black wings, Li En picked it up and placed it next to Catherine, smiling as he spoke.
“You have given birth to a lovely little angel, my dearest Catherine.”

Catherine picked up the child, her expression complex.

She so desperately wanted to love her child with all her heart, but why did he have a pair of black wings?

Black wings—that's the mark of fallen angels. Could my child be born a fallen angel? Or an evil god?

The baby boy stretched out his pink little hand, grabbed his mother's hair, and giggled.

Catherine, her face streaked with tears, hugged her child tightly.
“I will take him away from here, hide at sea, hide far away from the Holy Empire. I beg you, Your Majesty the Great Emperor, do not harm him.”

In Catherine's view, the fallen angels would bring disaster to the empire, and she had to do something to protect her children.

Li En paused slightly, then reached out and gently stroked Catherine's cheek.
“Don’t talk nonsense, Catherine. He is my child. I will never hurt him. He will have your love and my love completely. He will grow up in love.”

At that moment, Catherine was deeply moved.

She had thought her child would suffer the same tragic fate as her, but Lee Eun gave her a sense of security.

Even with black wings, he is still my angel.

[Black Angel] Your child with Catherine was born under the curse of Gari, becoming an angel with black wings. He possesses characteristics of both demons and angels, and he holds the power of sin and curse.

Is it the power of evil and curse?
It seems you're not suited to be an emperor.

Looking at his eldest son, Li En decided to name him Jia Ri in memory of the god who, even in death, did not forget to send him blessings.

Having both demonic and angelic attributes isn't necessarily a bad thing for a child, as it means their talent surpasses everyone else's, allowing them to easily gain power.

With proper education, even a demon can become a savior, let alone someone with mere demonic characteristics.

Lee En believes in Catherine; she will ensure the child grows up surrounded by love.

Even if all else fails, there's still a father who can clean up the entries.

Don't be afraid, child. Just grow up in peace.

Li En gently stroked her son's face. The baby boy reached out his pink little hand, grabbed Li En's finger, and giggled again.

“He likes you a lot, Lee Eun.” “Yes, I like him too.”

"what is his name?"

Catherine had thought of many names for the child, but at this moment she only wanted Lee to name the child, because Lee had decided the child's life.

"His name is Garry Edward."

Li En said with a smile.

Catherine paused, realizing that it was the name of an ancient god.

Calling out the name of an ancient god is taboo in itself, and Lee En even used that name to name his child. Catherine couldn't help but wonder if her child was really related to Gari.

After the birth of Edward Garry, Li En had his fifth angel, following Miriam, Dorothy, Sophie, and Fia.

The birth of Edward Garj also ushered in a seven-day celebration throughout the Holy Empire to commemorate the prince's birth.

He was Li En's first son, the Empress's child, and in the eyes of the princes and ministers, he was the rightful heir.

In the eyes of the common people, he was also the crown prince of the Holy Empire, an incomparably noble figure.

In addition, he was born an angel.

Even though he possessed a pair of ominous black wings, the people of the Holy Empire worshipped Li En immensely because of his attitude. They believed that the prince was the empire's hope, not an omen of misfortune or disaster.

The prince was supposed to have a high-ranking godfather, but since the prince was born an angel, no one was qualified to be his godfather, so the godfather ceremony was waived.

Prince Edward Garry was baptized by Lee En himself, and Black Queen Catherine received more rewards and the title of "Mother of Angels," which gave Catherine herself a preliminary sense of divinity.

【Mother of Angels】You are the mother of the angel Gabriel Edward. Your fate has been changed. You were supposed to die in childbirth, but you survived because of Li En's divinity. However, you will also perish with him. Your life is now bound together with Li En's.

When Catherine received this entry, she was both delighted and worried.

She was overjoyed because she could live.

The concern stems from the possibility that Lee Eun might perish.

Catherine wanted to help Lee, but she was powerless to do so and could only place her hopes on her son, Garry.

The birth of her eldest son made Lee Eun realize something: perhaps she had been wrong from the very beginning.

Nancy Stuart and Soraya could never become their own angels.

Soraya is Tiger's angel, while Nancy will become Dani's angel.

Her last two angels were neither witches nor sirens, but most likely her two unborn children.

One is still in Sophie's belly, and the other is in Dorothy's belly.

Fortunately, he no longer needs to gather all seven angels to become a god. After devouring the old gods, Li En already possesses the power to become a god.

Once the main body has fully absorbed His energy, the wager with God can be completed ahead of schedule.

However... the main body cannot awaken yet, because the last god has not yet been revived.

Only when Mohan also wakes up can he truly meet with Tiger.

Li En bid farewell to his wife Catherine and son Garri and went to the Temple of God, where he met several of Li En's angels.

"Milian, we can revive Randall now."

"kindness."

Miriam nodded, and a faint blue light emanated from her fingertips. A spatial rift twisted and tore before her, and Li En followed her into the past.

Randall's body was shattered. To revive Randall, his body must be found, which requires returning to a certain point in the past.

Inside the Basilica of St. Lucias, Pope Randall is organizing a council meeting with numerous bishops and high priests.

The theme of this meeting was to review the secular trial of Lien Moriah and to decide the 10 bishops, 22 high priests and 88 priests who would participate in the collective three days later.

High Priest Arthur expressed his latest views indignantly at the court meeting.

"Leen Moriah can actually summon God's angels just by praying. This is impossible! There is definitely something wrong here!"

"Yes, no angel would come just by praying. That doesn't make sense."

"That's because you don't know that Lee En Moriah once saved this hidden angel of God in the Bone Forest, which is now renamed the Golden Forest."

Elizabeth said.

"This is simply a fairy tale! You believe such things? Who can save an angel?"

Arthur questioned.

"Yes, no one can save an angel. The power of an angel is enough to fight against the evil god."

The old priest with a white beard spoke again and was supported by many priests.

"No one has the power to save the angel."

"If an angel is in danger, only God can lend a hand."

"Yes, no one can save the angel."

"You haven't seen an angel yet, so how do you know that angels don't have moments of weakness?"

Elizabeth asked suddenly.

"We haven't seen it, have you?"

The old priest asked back.

Elizabeth nodded. "Yes, I have. I saw it at the secular trial yesterday."

"Leen Moriah is a rare Silver Follower. He is extremely talented, and it makes sense that the angels favor him."

High Priest Carl spoke up, supporting Elizabeth and giving her more confidence.

Hearing that Li En Moriah was a Silver Believer, even the Pope was slightly stunned, and the other priests looked at each other in bewilderment.

"He is actually a Silver Follower?"

"How is this possible? How could there be a Silver Follower if he's not in Yalong City?"

"Yes, talented children will be sent to Yalong City for centralized training. How could someone with his talent be stranded outside forever?"

"So what if he's a Silver Follower? There are Silver Followers here too. Can you summon an angel?"

The matter was debated at the council meeting.

The argument was broken when Randall spoke up.

"Okay, I understand. The secular trial has concluded. There's no need to discuss it further. Now we need to decide on the bishops, high priests, and priests who will participate in the collective trial."

Randall's voice was very deep, and he looked quite young and handsome, like an elf from ancient elven mythology, making it impossible to tell his gender or age. Time had not left any marks on his face, but his majesty was inviolable.

The candlelight cast a shadow on the Pope's face, making him look like a kind angel on the left and a gloomy devil on the right.

No one dared to look directly into the Pope's eyes. Those deep black eyes seemed to devour the soul.

No one dares to challenge the authority of the Pope. He is the representative of the God Tiger on earth and he is the one favored by God.

Miriam and Li En appeared in the cathedral without attracting the attention of the priests, but Randall raised his eyes as if he were looking directly at Li En.

"Who is there?"
