Death… And Me

At the same time, in the angels' realm, Heaven...

Just like the Underworld, Heaven didn't have continental barriers. However, the angel races had always been much more united than any other realm. All its Archangels, which was the title given to angels who had reached the highest realm, worked together with their own clans for the realm's prosperity.

At the center of all those angel races stood the city of Arcadia. By far, it was the biggest city in any of the realms, housing tens of billions of angels. There was no such thing as territories in Heaven. All locations were open for any angel who wished to come and leave, except for some specific places that the angel races considered very important.

In a gigantic tower that reminded one of a spearhead, two of these Archangels, including the angels' selected leader, could be found. The twins heard about this person in two different places. One of them was back on Earth. The second time was when they talked with their father. "Sir Gabriel, Archangel Liran has arrived."

Gabriel gently smiled at the angel that reported and nodded. "Thank you, Guvos. Please call him in."

A moment later, Liran entered the room where Gabriel waited. "Gabriel, it worked well. The Light Devil Clan's young master was able to go to the Realm of Gods as you expected."

Gabriel's smile widened, but he didn't talk about Liran's words at first. "How was it? Was the Light Devil Clan doing fine? How are their wings?"

Liran narrowed his eyes in response, saying, "They were repulsive. It's truly a shame. Their next leader was only a Nascent Soul Realm Light Devil, but he could already summon all his six wings. Nevertheless, there were tainted by dark feathers and the Light and Dark Element constantly clashed around him. Such a lifeform shouldn't be allowed to carry the angel races' six wings. It's disgraceful."

Gabriel shook his head, though. "Liran, they were created to be a link between Heaven and Underworld. The fact that they're still devils but have descendants capable of summoning six wings at such a young age is remarkable. It's not their fault that they ended with that role and form, and we should strive to help them when the time comes. Not to mention their clan master is also an Elder Devil willing to be loyal to our angel races. That's how the angels should act."

Liran quickly nodded, feeling somewhat ashamed. "Yes, Gabriel. It was my mistake to say these horrible words. It's just that seeing our immaculate wings being contaminated by dark feathers made me forget about it for a moment. When the time comes, we shall take them under our protection and help them clean their wings. Perhaps we can even turn them into a part of the angels, depending on the results."

Gabriel nodded, satisfied. "It's good that you know, my friend. Don't misunderstand me. I also find such wings a sore to the eyes. However, we shall not hold them accountable for what you could call to be our own mistakes. Don't forget that the devils also have a similar race here in our Heaven for the same reason."

Liran then looked through the window, his eyes fixated in a specific direction. It wasn't possible to see it from that tower, but he knew the Dark Angel Race was located in that direction. "Sigh... mutual exchange ended up like this."

With that, Liran decided to return to the main topic. "Gabriel, the demon beast, humanoid, and spirit races are seriously gonna do it. I don't know if they'll be able to win against the devils with the Gods' Dividing Barrier in place. Nevertheless, the communication system they discovered will give them a reasonable chance."

Gabriel was a lot more optimistic, though. "Not just reasonable. The chances are totally on their side."

"How come?" Liran askeb back.

pAn,Da n<0,>v,e1 Gabriel looked in the direction of the Temporal Path's entrance. Arcadia could be said to have flourished because the Temporal Path was located nearby. That was also the reason most Archangels lived in this city. "Their alliance is planning to talk with that being."

"What?!" Liran was shocked to hear that. "Are they crazy?! If they irritate that thing, it would be disastrous to the Realm of Gods. Convincing it to act would cost a ridiculous price! Just meeting it would already be painful, even for us."

"I know." Gabriel had considered that fact. "In any case, that already shows how determined they are to drive the devils out of the Realm of Gods. The good thing is that I don't think the devils considered this possibility. No, to be more specific, the devils simply think the humanoid, demon beast, and spirit races wouldn't actually try it out."

"But... if they convince it..." Liran could already imagine the consequences. "The Realm of Gods' Core. It has its own conscience and is unimaginably powerful. However, due to the events of the past, it has suffered damage that hasn't been repaired even now. The smaller cracks on it created the continental barriers, and the main crack ended up as the Gods' Dividing Barrier that separated the four territories."

Gabriel agreed with Liran. "Indeed. It's still fully focused on repairing itself and simply couldn't care less about which races live on it. For the Core, all wars and deaths are meaningless. If the alliance truly succeeds in paying the right price, I believe it should make the Gods' Dividing Barrier disappear for a few days. For the alliance of those three races, the important part is traversing the barrier with their top experts without having to fight the restrictions of the Gods' Dividing Barrier first."

One must not forget that the Gods' Dividing Barrier blocked everyone above the Space Bending Realm. The higher the realm, the harder it was. Naturally, experts at Placake's level would suffer a lot before they even stepped into the devils' territory in the Realm of Gods. Or... they might be able to make the barrier disappear long enough to have everyone cross first.

Gabriel... was right about his conjectures. "The moment the alliance moves is the moment we descend into the Underworld."
