Originating from [[Heaven]], the Angels are powerful beings who serve the Biblical God, and have the powers to inflict pain upon Devils/demons due to their light-based powers. After the death of the [[God and Buddha#God from the Bible|God from the Bible]] in the Great War of the Three Factions, the Angels were incapable of increasing their numbers normally until the creation of the [[Brave Saint]] system which allows [[human|humans]] to be reincarnated into Angels. Unlike Devils and Fallen Angels, Angels need to purify themselves when making love and both the Angel and partner must undergo a lengthy purification ritual (it takes several hours). They must also need to do it inside a specially crafted barrier and they both must not harbor any kind of possessive feelings while doing it, rather it must be done out of pure love.

In [[Light Novel Volume 12|Volume 12]], it is revealed that there are also traitors in the Heavens who were giving out information to the [[Khaos Brigade]]. Ironically, these top-class Angels were able to do so without falling due to a loophole in Heaven's system. These Angels, however, became Fallen Angels after leaving the Heavens and escaping to the Khaos Brigade.
