Holy Right : A Multiverse Occultist

"O Wicked, Forgiveness Is Between Sinners And God! The Sinful Shall Be Met With Justice, Tremble Before Hosts Of The Lord Of The Hosts!" 

"For They Hath Sundered The Legions Of Hell With Will As Their Swords And Shields! Come! Sing The Hymn To Victory With Me!"

"Heed The Power Of Mine Words! I, The Designate Of Archistratege Of Heaven! I Convene! Come Forth! The Heaven's Armada!"

Roy sang the incarnation loudly, and then the sky above his head brightened, and a holy door carved with glyphs of Angels and Tree of Life materialized, even the sun in the sky seemed bleak compared to this 'door'. 

The sound of the seven trumpets came from a long distance. If there was a devout Christian here, he will definitely recognize that this is the scene– the Day of Judgement. 

However, the seven trumpets sounded here was not for calling the calamities of the Doomsday. 

But, to summon the Legion of Angels that 'fell upon the gathered army of the fallen, tearing it asunder with their divine weapons'. 

"Day of Revelation?!"

As an Italian, Erica is also a Christian. Although she is not a firm believer in of the Religion of Cross as the knight of Copper Black Cross. But, she still has some faith and has read the full Bible. 

After she heard the trumpets blew by the 'seven guardian angels', she knew that Roy's this divine authority was to reproduce the scene recorded in the Book of Revelation!

As soon as the gates of heaven opened, hundreds of Angels flew out. These Angels are not the real living Angels but, are the condensate of Roy's mana. 

They have basic humanoid figures which cannot be distinguish between men and women. 

They have a pair of wings on their backs, their bodies emits gentle, holy light, but intent in the holy light is full of warfare, they looked more like an elemental body than a physical body.

Erica was also horrified after seeing these Angels. Not by their appearance, but by their strength.

Each of these Angels were extraordinary in strength, close to a Great Knight! 

They flew in the air and gathered in a formation, surrounding Metatron, like a trained army. 

Erica had no doubt that this Angel army could easily beheaded an army of knights or any Divine beasts summoned by a Heretic God. 

Even if the Heretic God wants to destroy these Angels, it will need to consume a lot of divine power; and if any of the world's top knights like her are surrounded by a Squad of Angels, they will undoubtedly die under the hand of these glowing Angels. 

Roy naturally can't really summon an Army of tens of millions of Angels. A Campione's magical energy is only huge in quantity, not unlimited. 

Though he could summon thousands of such Angels with the all magical he currently possess, but he needs to save his magical energy for any emergencies. 

Anyway, these hundreds of angels are already strong enough to defeat the crippled, injured and non-combative Heretic God. 

In fact, any Heretic God will have a headache when facing hundreds of Angels close in strength to a Great Knight. 

Though they don't have the strength of a Great Knight, a pseudo Great Knight is not to be underestimated. 

Italy, as one of the strongest mage countries, only has five Great Knights and not more than ten Great Mages and Great Knights in total. 

Every Great Mage and Great Knight are the head of their respective organization, who have been cultivated by sacrificing huge amount of resources. By only this, we can estimate Erica's talent. 

A pseudo Great Knight already has the strength to become the overlord of an area. If there are not an exaggerated existence like a Campione, a pseudo Great Knight are already strong enough to dominate where Great Levels do not exist. 

Even if you count the total number of pseudo Great Knights in the whole world, it will definitely be less than hundred. 

That's why Erica was so shocked to see hundreds of pseudo Great Knights. 

But after seeing these Army of Angels, Metatron was not surprised but, rejoiced and shouted: 

"...I Am The Scribe Of God! The Chancellor Of Heaven! The Angel Of Contracts! The One And Only With Thirty Six Pairs Of Wings! All Deeds In The Heavens, The Earth And Unknown Shall Be Clept Inscribed By Me."

"....."

When Roy heard Metatron chanting an incantation, he secretly became vigilant. The reason why he used this authority to summon Angels was to see that if Metatron held any hidden ace card, a ultimate move. 

No Heretic God can be underestimated. Roy doesn't know what Divine Authorities Metatron has. 

He was vigilant of the possibility of any Divine Authority that can only be activated when Metatron is close to dying. He is currently in a advantageous position and is only one step short of victory. 

Naturally he does not want to take the risk, now Metatron is no longer an opponent of the Heavenly Host, Roy was ready to kill him by stacking Angel on him to death.

When Metatron activated the Divine Authority, a book and a quill appeared in his hands. The book was transformed out of magical energy. 

When it appeared, the quill automatically started to write on it. 

Suddenly, Roy felt that his control over the Angels summoned through the <Advent of Heavenly Host> dissipated. 

The Angels hovering in the sky turned the direction of their weapon from Metatron and aimed it at Roy.

"Could it be an authority relating to usurpation? He has usurped the control on my divine authority?"

"What are the activation conditions? Why can he usurp the control of my angel army, but didn't try to usurp the <Jacob's Limbs>."

In Jewish Mythos, it is understood that any Angel who wishes to speak to God must go through Metatron first and that every command uttered by Metatron must be fulfilled by all other angels. So, he is also known as 'The King of Angels'. 

Most probably that legend is the source of this Divine Authority. 

Just as Roy was thinking about the limitations and effects of Metatron's authority, Erica's exclamation came from behind: 

"....King, be careful!"

The Angel Legion hovering in the sky launched a charge against Roy. 

Seeing this, Roy frowned, he applied magical energy on the soles of his shoes to reduce friction, then slided to avoiding the stab of the Angel in front of him, and then blasted the Angel of light who dared to attack him into light particles with a punch.

At this time, Roy was completely surrounded by these angels. Each of them was like a powerful knight and a powerful mage, in perfect coordination with each other. 

Roy slided on the water like a skilful skater on ice ring doing a marvelous performance, either punching, or splitting, or whipping with his leg, blocking all the attacks, and then blasting every Angel to tiny light particles. 

This doesn't show that Angels are weak, in fact, due to being made of mana and possessing an elemental body, they are scatheless to any physical damage. 

But with the aid of <Jacob's Limbs>, he easily blasted them into obliteration. <Jacob's Limbs> doesn't means only using the seven forms.

<Jacob's Limbs> is the peak marital arts of Biblical Mythos with it's own unique intent contained in the simplest of moves like kicking, punching and slapping.

However, there are still a lot of these Angels remaining. It is not difficult to kill these Angels at once with a divine authority from his <Holy Right>, but it will waste a lot of physical strength, stamina and magical energy. 

This is the reason behind this long monotonous battle of blasting Angels instead to annihilating all at once. 

Roy rolled his eyes when saw that after Metatron had usurped his control over the Angel army, he did not cooperate with the Angel army to launch an attack. 

Instead, he turned around and waved his thirty six pairs of wings to escape.

'This Angel really likes to run away. Maybe, after this battle I should add the title of 'Angel of Escapes' in some book.'

Hmm, he will definitely thank me. Next time he descends, he will definitely gain an Divine Authority related to escaping. 

Roy lackadaisically said: 

"... Metatron, ooh, you choose to escape! Ok, I will be soft-hearted for this instance."

"I will first let you run for nine hundred ninty nine meters and then I will swing my thousand meter long 'angel slaughtering blade'."

It is not surprising that Metatron would make this type of inglorious choice, because even in all the pseudo-canons, Metatron used to be Enoch, a human. 

Being a human turned Angel means that he is very likely to have human thinking, and it is reasonable to make choices a human will make.

The book of Genesis (5:24) is cited as evidence of Enoch's bodily ascension into heaven: "And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him."

Even if his nature as a Heretic God is urging him to desperately fight with Roy, he made a choice that any other Heretic God would not be able to make because of their inner arrogance. 

"King!"

After seeing that Metatron was preparing to flee, Erica who has seen the terrible power of Heretic Gods, even knowing that she can't fight against them, raised her long sword awe-inspiringly.

She didn't hear the 'conversation' between Roy and Metatron, so she was ready to do all to keep Metatron here while king is engaged in a fight. 

Summoning her courage and pride, she did not flinch even when facing an invincible enemy, chanting the incantation, actually trying to keep Metatron behind with her own strength:

" O' Red bonds of the cross, pierce..."

She channelled her mana into her rapier preparing to use her ultimate ace card, the spell that can harm gods— Golgatha. 

The Golgatha spell is one of the most powerful spells available to humans. It invokes the feelings of hatred and despair from Jesus Christ's lamentation when he died on the Cross at Golgatha. 

When casted by Erica, the spell transforms her sword <Cuore di Leone> into a copy of the Lance of Longinus which pierced the side of Christ after his death, granting it the power to pierce even gods.

It's just that Erica's incantation has just been read, Roy interrupted her: 

"...Stop, Erica! I order you to run."

"King?"

Erica, who was channelling her mana into the <Cuore di Leone> in front of her, stopped the incantation and asked in puzzlement. 

"I will not repeat again for the third time. Now, immediately, run away from here, otherwise you may die next."

Seeing the serious look on Roy's face, Erica only hesitated for a moment, and said:

"...Yes, king. As your knight, Erica must take your orders as the highest priority."

If Roy was in fatal danger, Erica will choose not to listen to his orders and unhesitatingly attack the enemy, but since Roy is not in any danger, she didn't hesitate to follow his command. 

Although this woman is active and self-righteous, maybe, sometimes she is too assertive and self-righteous, but as long as you can willingly get her allegiance, she will even sacrifice her life to fulfill her knightly duties. 

"Fly, Boots of Hermes."

Boots of Hermes, which conjures a glyph underneath her feet to either propel her into the air or horizontally across flat surfaces at great speed.

Erica and glided in the opposite direction. 

At the same time, Roy fought with the Angel Legion while chanting a new spirit of words:

"Deeds Of Thy Sins Hast Been Heard By The Judge Of All! The Everlasting Father!"

"The Sulfur Of Hell Shall Gush Out Of It's Bounds! The Heavenly Fire Of Damnation Shall Fall From High Above!"

"Now Is The Time, And I Will Give Thee The Grave Of Thy Sins."

This is the complete authority of Roy's <Eyes of Sodom>. The second <Holy Right>—

"<Sin of Sodom>! "

This is the Divine authority which he can only activate once in three days. After using, it takes three days to 'recharge', only then can he reuse this Divine Authority.
