The Land of the Four Suns
Chapters 16. Punishment (Flashback)
"Who's that ugly woman?" enraged Azura, when she saw a woman walking by Arsa Dewananda's side.
Even though Arsa seems to dislike the woman who follows him, Azura is still jealous to see him.
"Go, Zayya. I won't change my mind. You're not ashamed to chase a guy like this?" arsa expels Zayya Gantari.
"You think I'm following you, because I like you?" Zayya stopped her steps, then spoke in a high enough tone.
"If it wasn't for that, what else would it be?" reply Arsa while sneering. "You know I don't like ugly girls like you" the man continued.
Azura heard some of the chatter of the young couple. "Well, I don't think Arsa would dare to speak so bluntly. Means I included her criteria, dong?" azura said as she flapped her wings.
The angel with sparkling blue wings was indeed famous for her beauty, among the other angels.
However, Azura's delight was only temporary. He is furious to see Zayya who continues to follow Arsa, despite having been expelled many times.
"I don't like you either, Arsa. The man was arrogant but pretended to be innocent in front of everyone. Right from the start I didn't want to be paired with you. But your mother ..."
Zayya stopped her unfinished sentence. He does not want to dismantle the disgrace of Arsa's mother who is very crazy treasure. Zayya does have a higher standing in the company. It was also that made Arsa's mother betrothed them.
"Ah, this can't be allowed. There can't be a woman near Arsa, including an ugly girl like her."
Azura suddenly flapped her wings, and was about to swoop down some rotten fruits on top of Zayya's head. But ...
"Well, why don't my powers work?" azura thought confused.
He repeated his actions, but still could not. The rotten fruits of the guava tree, actually fell into the gutter.
"Stop that, Azura Andzelika!"
That thunderous sounding voice, spontaneously made Azura look back.
"Isaura De-Goddess?" azura was surprised.
The notoriously meek goddess Isaura looked at him sharply. Not alone, behind Goddess Isaura there are several gray-winged angels, who serve as bodyguards.
"Capture him, then bring him before the Great Mahadeva" commanded the goddess Isaura, in a cold and firm voice.
...🌟🌟🌟🌟...
"You have done an act of no praise, Andzelika," Mahadeva told Azura Andzelika, who stood before her. "You have also neglected your duties, which caused thousands of babies to die in less than three months" Mahadewa said.
"This is a misunderstanding, Your Majesty the Mahadeva. I didn't do anything" Azura denied. "By the babies also died from the plague caused by the humans themselves. It's not my fault" he added.
The Goddess Gods who were in the room were shocked, hearing Azura mention the word 'dead'. How could a baby guardian angel who should have the motherly soul say such a harsh word?
"You can't lie anymore. Some of your wings have turned black. That means you have been in contact with humans, using lust," said Mahadewa calmly but with great emphasis.
Azura was surprised to hear the statement. He looked back, stretching out his wings. It is true what Mahadeva said. The lower wing already looked black.
"Andzelika, you are a holy creature, who carries out noble duties. You cannot have lust like a human. Hate, love and the desire to have something is an act that can damage the sanctity of the angel soul" Mahadeva said again.
"Why is it unfair? Why only angels cannot feel love. Though the God Goddess who is supposed to lead the world can also have lovers, even more than one," cried Azura, while pointing towards Goddess Ercilia.
"Rules that have been made thousands of years ago, can not be changed again, Andzelika. You must accept the punishment for breaking the rules" Mahadewa said.
"I don't want to!" jerrits Azura.
"The decision was already set by the Goddess Gods. You must live on earth forever as a guardian of nature, to make amends for your sins. All your power will be revoked" said Mahadeva.
"I don't accept it, Mahadeva. This is not fair! What difference would I make to that despicable human being, if all my powers were to be revoked?" jerit Azura did not accept the punishment.
"Didn't you ruin your sanctity because of a man?" sindir Mahadeva.
"Uh, so liking a man and kissing him, my chastity is already considered stained?" thought Azura.
"Well, I didn't take out your wings. That's all I can give you. And you will I send to the southern island region of the equator" said Mahadeva after conferring with several other Gods.
Azura could only cry bitterly, as the guardian angels led her to earth. His blue wings are gone. All that remains today are dull, jet-black wings, like those of the demon race.
