67 Arbitrary Time And Arbitrary Calender (1/2)

It's surprising how things have escalated to this point in time. The more Irium and his gang try to unravel the mysteries, the more they become entangled in it. At this point in time, Irium, his friend Danny and the Diamond Angel Roswaisa would probably be together. Adonia Evans will obviously not be with them. While the second of the two is because of me, the first is obviously not. That would be because of Lucifer. As for how I can tell that Lucifer would want to do something like that, it's quite simple. He's Lucifer, the king of Hell. He'll do all that is required to protect his kingdom from the schemes of Dues ex machina.

Well, whatever!

At present, her schemes and Lucifer's schemes do not bother me. I have more important things to take care of. And it involves Angels and Demons. You see, there's something called age-limit for Angels, Demons and their likes. Let's suppose a human lived for 20 years. In their terms, that'd be equivalent to 100 years. So, if this human becomes an Angel or a Demon, they'd live for 100 years and then die. It's not like they'd become old or something. No. But when the time comes, they'd just die.

That's how the system seems to work for them.

Grimma lived for a whole total of 16 years. Not a day more than that. The day she died was her birthday. So, the Demoness Priscina lived for 80 years too and then died. Regardless of how and when she died, it's important to note that she did.

Now, time is irrelevant for them, isn't it? Even if, in some distant future, they are dead, they should still be alive and capable of being summoned in this time-period, right?

Well, no.

It's a little more complicated than that. The human time is what is irrelevant for them. They have their own time, and that flows quite arbitrarily. So, let's ignore all that mumbo-jumbo of their time and just proceed to the digits.

According to their calendar, which is the same for Heaven and Hell, Priscina entered heaven in the year 10353. She died in 10433. Within these 80 years, anybody on Earth, in any time-period OF EARTH, can summon her. After 10433 though, nobody can do that. At the time of her summoning by Grimma, she was already 80-years-old as no Angel or Demon is qualified to be summoned before that point.

If, let's suppose, a human died before reaching 16 and so the Angel or Demon version of them will also, they will never be summoned.

Anyway, the point is – time is not irrelevant to Angels or Demons or anybody in Heaven and Hell, they have their own time, and that time is relevant to them. The only connection they have with human time or Earth time or whatever you want to call it – is that they can't be summoned in a time-period that came before a time-period they had already been summoned.

In other words, since I summoned Roswaisa in 1856, nobody can summon her before 1856 now. Her second summoning can only happen in a time that is past the date that she disappears from this summoning, whether she fails or succeeds.

There is also the thing about there being some catalyst for summoning. Something that belonged to the human they were, or them, can work as a catalyst. If not, then having a connection with them like Roswaisa trying to 'kill' Irium and/or Danny will make can be enough too. To be honest though, one doesn't need to go so far as to try to kill another to make that connection. But the strongest emotions do come out hate and love.

Well, anyway, there's no longer any need for her to try to kill either of them. After seeing a fair amount of what happened to me, being the pure Angel that she is, her feelings of pity and guilt have already risen to a really high point for all of my family, which obviously includes Irium. Add to that the fact that she would be talking with them and she also knows that they have come from the future to help her. Yeah, that should be enough of a catalyst. No need to try to kill either of them anymore.

I didn't tell her this but not like it matters much, that Angel can't go around killing humans anyway.

This is why,

”Anybody home?” I can freely walk around the place and visit a friend without caring about all that. And so, I do. I visit the house of a British General, or what it's supposed to be at least. Inside of the house, only man is present, who is sitting with his arms folded.

”Finally showed up, did you?” He asks in a bit of an annoyed voice.

”Oh, pardon my lethargy, Azazel.” I sit next to him, ”I was just busy recounting my humanity and the tale of it being chipped away.”

”Oh, is that so?” Azazel asks, ”Where you showing all that to someone?”

I simply answer, ”My future daughter-in-law.”

Azazel spits the beer he had been so proudly drinking right on the floor as he hears that.

”By that … you mean Angel Roswaisa?”

”Who else would I mean?” I ask mockingly.

”Hah!” He sighs. ”Anyway, why did you call me here?”
