Elliot, the General, the platoon leaders, all the knights, archers, and mages, and every citizen of Nix … were left speechless and in great awe of the miracle that they were experiencing right at that moment. In their awe and thankfulness, they abandoned their weapons and simply went down on their knees, thanking the Supreme.

​​

Amongst the Supreme's angel armies, two of them flew towards Rania and Elliot. The angels touched their foreheads gently and unlocked the powers that were once blocked when they went to the realm. Like chains that fell off, or a thick barrier that got broken into pieces, their powers rushed all throughout their bodies. Like a man being freed from his own shackles.

The rest of the thousands of angels battled with the monsters surrounding the entire city. It was hard to tell who was outnumbered - the monsters or the angels? Perhaps it was the angels, if you would count the sizes of the high-ranking ones. Nonetheless, it was a one-sided battle in favor of the angels. Though they appeared almost the same size as the people, they were extremely powerful - for they were warrior angels. One might even say that they were as powerful as Elliot … or maybe more. No one really knew nor understood fully all of the many wonders of heaven.

A few moments passed before everyone recovered from being overwhelmed. Afterwards, they wiped their tears and joined the angels in the fight. The knights fought with smiles on their faces and great confidence in their hearts. With their renewed strength, they slashed the monsters, ending their lives.

On the other hand, Elliot flew all throughout the city, killing all the enemies he passed by. He used Holy Fire, only - instead of creating a beast-form fire, he bathed himself with it, forming a gigantic phoenix. And everything it's flames touched, were all purged into ashes. Everyone who saw him gaped in surprise - even the General. They all thought he didn't have an inch of spiritual energy in him. 'It was probably because of the angels' was what they concluded since they saw an angel touch his forehead a moment ago. Little did they know that it was his actual powers, and that the angels only helped unleashed them.

Rania and Hadassah continued to worship. Deborah, who was surprised by the fact that Rania was another songstress a moment ago, joined the fight as well, followed by Elijah and the man he was with when they arrived at the place. With all of them fighting together with the angels, the battle that was supposed to last for hours ended a lot sooner.

Not even an hour passed, and all the monsters were completely wiped out. The dark aura that came from their bodies was the only thing left. It formed a thin mist - a miasma - in the air. Good thing Rania and Elliot were familiar with it. With a mere glance with each other, they understood what must be done.

Rania left Hadassah in the tower and flew towards the opposite direction of Elliot. Then, she put her hands together, and gathered lots of holy energy in it. Once it was large enough, she separated her hands, moving them sideways, and creating a giant wave of light that engulfed the miasma. Elliot copied her until the light reached unto the horizons. The light cleared out the miasma. At last, the war ended with their complete victory.

"YEAAAAH!!!" everyone shouted and cheered with delight.

Parents kissed and embraced their children, friends and comrades either hugged each other or shook each other's hands, some were shouting, some were crying in joy, and some others laid down on the grass, finally able to relax. The angels returned to the heavens as the people bowed their heads in reverence. Forever … they would keep this victory dear to their hearts and engraved unto their souls.

After that, everyone prepared for a feast. It was to celebrate their victory and give thanks to the Most High, who gave them the victory. Also, to thank the two strangers who helped them fight the war - Rania and Elliot. And for the four more people who aided them at the height of battle - Elijah and his friends.

"Today, marks the start of an extremely important historical event," the General started his speech in front of every citizen of Nix as he stood on an elevated platform in the midst of the Town Square.

Everyone turned unto him, and listened.

"For the longest time, probably a hundred generations, we have protected this land with all our strength, magic, and even our lives. From our ancestors to our generation, we did our best to protect it. We've been through a lot of battles and wars both with monsters and other tribes. But we won them all, and succeeded in protecting this city - our home".

Some of the citizens began to cry as they reminisced on the past.

"Perhaps," the General continued, "it was because of those victories that we got too confident, complacent, or even arrogant of our own strengths. We believed that whoever or whatever came our way, we would be able to defeat them. But today, we were slapped hard in the face of the truth. We have become blinded by our past successes and forgot the One who really gives us the success and triumph. We have forgotten … our God".

Everyone fell silent. Deep in their hearts, remorse and guilt, rose up.

"Fortunately, these people came to us in the most perfect time," the General looked towards the direction of Elliot, Rania, Elijah, and his friends. "When we were overwhelmed by a war we couldn't win, this young lady reminded us that we have a Supreme God we could lean on". His lips curved into a gentle smile. "She reminded us that it wasn't really because of our strength that we won all those wars before - it was because of the Supreme. Especially the war today … We've all seen it with our own two eyes. How great and amazing He was! And all we needed to do was have faith and hope in Him ...

So today, let us celebrate this very joyous day! Let it be known in history that today was a glorious day! Not only because the Supreme rained down help from heaven, or sent angels to aid us in battle … but because we were reunited! Yes! Reunited with our faith, with our Father!

Let this truth be passed down from generations to generations! Let it never be forgotten!"
