The moment that the conversation with Misery ended, Guy had intended to leave to find out information. Someone had caught his attention and interest and he wanted to find out what he truly was.
Guy had left Eden and entered the Cardinal world right outside Tempest, "If I'm not wrong, Ramiris relocated her domain to Tempest. Her loyal knight should be there as well."
Low and behold, he had discovered the new entrance to the labyrinth.

"Milady, do you believe it is in your best interest to keep Guy Crimson out?" Beretta asked very concerned about the repercussions.
"Oh calm down Beretta, it's fine. I'll just let him get lost alittle and then step in to save that poor soul." Ramiris said with a smug expression.
"Woah, I'm a little sad that you think so little of me, do you really believe that something so mundane would fool me?" The voice from behind completely freezing Ramiris in place. She slowly turned her head to find the crimson haired demon that appeared out of nowhere.
" How did yo- how did you get here? Evens you shouldn't have been able to get out so easily." Ramiris stammered out of fear and disbelief.
" Maybe from before, but with Simon's power there is no space or time that is out of my access now. I gotta say that gaining that power from him is especially helpful when you want mess with me so much." Guy said amused.
Ramiris let out a frustrated sigh, " Damn it, that guy's power just keeps going against natural law. Fine then, what do you want Guy?"
Guy: " I've come for your servant."
Ramiris was now very concerned, 'Did he come to scold Beretta for her actions against him at Walpurgis? But Guy wouldn't scold someone for an action that is so small, if anything, I thought he would be impressed by Beretta more then anything else.'
Beretta who had thought the same thing as Ramiris had already stood up and walked towards Guy, accepting her fate.
Guy lifted his hand in a very ominous fashion above Beretta, ready to end her life.
"No Berretta, don't go!" Ramiris had shouted out for dear life that Guy won't end her life. The hand came down and Ramiris closed her eyes.
BANG
The sound of a metal drum rang out, Ramiris opened her eyes to see that Guy had delivered a karate chop to Beretta's metallic head.
"Calm down that's not what I came here for. No offense but you weren't evens who I came here for. Do I look so petty that I would execute someone just because they spoke up against me?" Guy said exasperated.
"Wait so what did you come here for?" Ramiris said relieved but surprised.
"I came for him." Guy said pointing to the angelic robot who was standing guard at the doorway looking completely unfazed by everything that had just happened, giving off the aura of a reliable guardian.
Guy waved his hands in the air in a casual manner, "Don't worry, I only want to have a private talk with him."
"If you have something talk to him about then you can say it Infront of us." Ramiris said in a protective tone.
" Lady Ramiris, I would request that I have a chat with Lord Guy in private." Gabriel asked politely.
" B-but, are you sure. He might-"
" Lady Ramiris, I'll be fine. Infact Lord Guy is actually asking to chat with me in private for my sake, not his. There's no need to worry Milady."
"Oh o-ok, just make sure to stand your ground and not to let this demon do anything bad to you!" Ramiris said to Gabriel out of concern and simultaneously berated Guy.
Guy just deadpanned at Ramiris, "Jeez, I'm not that bad."

Guy and Gabriel walked to an empty space in the labyrinth and when they got there, Guy wrapped them in a barrier of gray fog.
Guy: " Now, let us talk."
Gabriel: " Fine then, since you came to me, I guess you should start the conversation. What is your first question?"
Guy: " Ok then, who are you really. I know that you are already Rose's kin but if I'm not wrong, you were summoned into that body before she was already born."
Gabriel: " My identity is a bit complicated to explain, it's an extremely long story and frankly… I have no real reason to tell my story to you in the first place."
Guy: " Do you think I'm giving you a choice there little demon?"
Gabriel: "I don't care what choice you give me. You might be one of the strongest demon lords in existence but I don't really consider you a threat. That is not some meaningless boast but the truth."
" I'm not as strong as you in the traditional sense but I have my ways to rid the world of the first demon." Gabriel's voice wasn't overly arrogant but he did seem assured about his own ability.
" You seem very assured that you can subdued me. Let me ask you, as someone who was probably born in the future, why did you come back here?"
"Just as I said the same about my identity, my reasons do not matter. The truth is that I do not have a reason, this feeling of normalcy is incredibly refreshing after so long of… well that's not important anymore."
Guy had noticed Gabriel looking around at the barrier very unsurely, "Don't worry, manifesting the grayfog in small world will prevent either of them from noticing us."
Gabriel: "Mhm. I wasn't sure before about the mechanism myself. Manifesting a portion of Eden to overlap with small world to create a spacetime contradiction, preventing both Simon and Lady Ramiris from hearing us, how clever of you."
Gabriel looked at Guy who was now chuckling, " I'm sorry, did I say something funny?"
" No, it just that you slipped up." Guy said after finishing his good laugh.
Gabriel: " I did? How so?"
Guy: "The moment you confirmed we couldn't be heard, you stopped using honorifics with Simon specifically."
"I… see, it's been eons since I made such a simple mistake. Fine then, you wanna know my real reasons for coming back here?"
Guy just nodded.
" The reason is… because I'm finally back home." Gabriel said before turning around and walking away.
" You can't walk out of the barri-" Guy tried to explain that the barrier was still up but then Gabriel just… walked through… as if the barrier wasn't there.
But what truly stunned him was the phenomena that happened when he walked through. Gabriel's body, as he passed through the barrier, had become to flicker between a different visage, a man in a trenchcoat with white hair and blue eyes.
Gabriel had completely disappeared which caused Guy to let down the barrier. When he did, he saw Gabriel, in his usual robot angel body, walking away.
" See you around Lord Guy." Gabriel said without evens looking back.
" Hey, just call me Guy ok!" Guy shouted at him with Glee, but Guy's internal thoughts posed more questions about Gabriel, 'Bastard barely answered any questions.'
But despite Guys internal complaints, he's mind was wondering what the hell he had just saw. It wasn't what he physically saw that shocked him but what he magically saw.
When that form of Gabriel flickered, Guy had saw more of what he was, 'He really isn't a normal demonic kin… especially when you have the power of an angel.'
