Only God

If one were to say that Schiller was once plagued by the doubts of the Great Angels, now, as they beheld the spectacle of God's Path permeating the world, their doubts about Schiller gradually lessened.

Worry disappeared along with the surging of the Cloud Sea, and the Great Angels were put at ease; Kara even couldn't help but admire Schiller's achievements, feeling that he truly deserved to be one of the Great Angels.

The pure-hearted Maisy soon abandoned his past prejudices. He wrote many poems of praise for Schiller and taught them to the younger Angels to sing.

In such an atmosphere, in Heaven, nearly everyone recognized Schiller's actions, except for the Great Angel Leader, Solamus.

Contrary to everyone else, Solamus never set aside his worries about Schiller. Even though Schiller had made considerable achievements, the Leader's worries did not diminish but intensified instead.

Every time he closed his eyes, he would recall Schiller's refusal that day.

That day, God had summoned all the Great Angels to His throne. Among the eight, only Schiller had refused.

Although Schiller's refusal was reasonable, Solamus still harbored deep concerns.

Thus, Solamus shared his thoughts with Love God Lian Xidi.

"You're probably overthinking this."

Lian Xidi smiled and said,

"Schiller knows what he is doing."

Solamus replied softly,

"But that was God's call, His requirement."

Lian Xidi sighed softly and said,

"Solamus, children do not always listen to their parents.

Schiller is like this, and so is my Mira. They always have their own ideas, and the world in their eyes is not our world."

Lian Xidi seemed to empathize greatly, and His words were not lacking in persuasive power.

Solamus sighed and said,

"I hope this really is just my overthinking."

Lian Xidi blinked,

"With God here, what do you have to be alarmed about?

For instance, although my Mira does not listen to me, if... I am willing to pay a price, she still can't defy me.

If even I can manage that, what about God?"

Seeing that these words did not ease Solamus' furrows, Lian Xidi continued,

"I see everything Mira does, and I believe God sees everything Schiller does too. Why don't I stop Mira? Because Mira might take a wrong path, she might veer off, but who knows.

I think it's the same with Schiller. Isn't he fulfilling the mission well? Besides, he hasn't really done anything rebellious, Solamus, your prejudice against him is too strong."

After listening to Lian Xidi, Solamus calmed down somewhat. He carefully asked,

"Is that really what God thinks too?"

Lian Xidi quickly waved His hands,

"No, this is just my own idea...

I guess... that's what God thinks, as for what God thinks… Solamus, you should see Him yourself."

Solamus nodded; even if Lian Xidi's words had not completely persuaded him, they had given him some insights.

If he wanted to know what God was thinking, it was better to see God Himself.

Thus, the Great Angel Leader bid farewell to Lian Xidi, flapped his wings, and soared into the sky, heading toward the throne in Heaven.

As he hoped, Solamus saw God sitting on the throne.

The Great Angel Leader keenly noticed God gazing into the distance, as if pondering something.

"God, what are you thinking about?" Solamus asked softly.

As the words fell, Chen Yi slowly shifted His gaze to Solamus.

He smiled and softly said,

"I am thinking... about something similar to you."

Solamus was initially stunned, then he smiled complexly and softly asked,

"God, are my worries really so out of tune, so ridiculous?"

Almost the entire Heaven had changed their view of Schiller, fully believing he was capable of completing the mission bestowed by God, except himself, who had always maintained doubts.

Moreover, these doubts were erratic imaginations, slightly malicious and groundless speculations.

God must think so too...

Solamus lifted his face, waiting for God's admonition.

Unexpectedly,

"Solamus, your worries are not ridiculous."

Chen Yi gazed into the distance,

"Things are indeed happening as you imagined."

Solamus was startled, then showed a panicked expression, and he incredulously asked,

"What... exactly happened?"

Chen Yi spoke in a gentle voice,

"Solamus, I cannot tell you more, you just need to know that recently, Schiller had an argument with Xilan."

Schiller had argued with Xilan...

On any other day, Solamus wouldn't mind, but at this crucial moment, the Great Angel Leader couldn't help but think deeply.

Both Schiller and Xilan were chosen by God, people entrusted with a mission.

They were Prophets in the eyes of mortals, meant to act according to God's will, but these two Prophets had an argument?

Under such frightening thoughts, even the Great Angel Leader couldn't hide his fear.

"What in the world..."

Solamus thought of something and looked at God,

"God, at that time, was it really You speaking, or was it Xilan?"

The Great Angel Leader heard God say softly,

"Xilan acted according to My will."

Solamus let out a deep breath, and then God told him about the argument between the two, to His most trusted Angel, also the future Angel King.
