Chapter 141
“If the worst case were to arise, wouldn’t you not be able to restore to your true selves?”
I asked L.
“If we were to die while being fused, we wouldn’t be able to be reborn until the universe has been restored.”
“Restored?”
“Oh, didn’t you know? All vessels of Divine Grave are restored after death, just in another universe cycle. This is all attributed to an individual’s Divine Grace, I suppose humans call this Soul? Every soul is connected to both the Alpha and Omega and undergoes multiple cycles of reduction and restoration.”
“There isn’t any case where they are completely wiped out?”
“I can’t be sure, but once Abbadon fully awakes as the Omega, if we were to undergo a cycle of reduction as the universe is now, I can’t predict the outcome.
“Well it seems that I’ve caused quite a lot of problems.”
“Johra can be considered as an exception among exceptions.”
Sha chuckled, before giving me a meaningful look.
‘Now I’m just more curious as to what our promise was.’
Sha and L then proceeded to take hold of Abbadon hand.
“What are you doing? Are you trying to fuse without even getting my permission?”
“Abbadon, we were originally one, you might not remember but just embrace it.”
“Damn, everything that will happen in the future will be on you.”
Abbadon bit her lip before extending her hand.
“Then until next time, Johra.”
“What?”
“We’ll meet again soon.”
“Wait up, we aren’t done yet!”
“Bye we’re leaving!”
Swooosh!
They all turned into a blinding light and vanished before my very eyes.
“Ughh! This L and Sha! How dare they! If I tell them to wait up they should listen to me!”
My crazy shouts in this empty living room fell on deaf ears.
“What am I supposed to do next. My plan was to first make a deal with Skyfather and then meet Abbadon and get her help to take care of Megatron, but now….”
“Johra, Skyfather’s fleet has been detected, they are about 1 AU out. He must have decoded the our teleportation log.”
“Oh right, there was that, I also forgot that i left that code for Skyfather to come here. Just what am I supposed to do now? Now that Abbadon is gone, how am I supposed to make a deal with Skyfather? Ughh!”
“I recommend fleeing at once, Johra.”
Lena was right, I couldn’t meet face to face with SKyfather now that my leverage in making a deal had disappeared.
“Lena, set up a teleportation array!”
“On it!”
Quaaaaaaaang
The very next moment a flash of lightning appeared in the house and the scent of burnt oil filled my nostrils. The lightning had effectively melted the surrounding walls and the emergency fire alarms and sprinklers had gone off.
Pazic! Pazic
Hovering before me was a giant creature wrapped in large gray wings.
“Johra, that’s one of his Angels. Judging by its 13 wings, it must be a pretty high level Cherubim.”
“Dammit, they’re already here. How about the magic array?”
“Ready to go.”
“Then let’s get out of here.”
Kuuhmm!
A familiar shockwave spread out.
“Null Magic field?”
The large angel looked down at me emotionlessly, like statue looking down on the world.
“I might have suffered under this before, but no longer.”
Extending my will to the Null Magic Field, I completely negate it.
‘Reject!’
The Null Magic Field disappeared just as quickly as it had formed.
The Angel’s previous stone faced expression became contorted as it pulled out a large flaming sword.
“Johra, the Teleportation Array is ready to use at any time.”
“In a bit, I can’t simply run away without any payback.”
“The temperature of that fire sword is close to 100 million degrees, even the Rohim’s shield…”
Huaaa!
Before Lena could even finish here thought, the angel swung her superheated plasma sword towards me.
‘Freeze!’
My will wrapped itself around the flaming sword. I truly hoped that the Sephiroth network which I had planted and grown across the universes over the past 6.6 billion years would work as advertised.
Fortunately it also extended to the 100 million degrees plasma sword, and my commands were absolute, overriding all else.
Both magical and divine powers were using the network to interact with matter across the universes. (With some exceptions)
As soon as my will reached out to the Sephiroth network and interacted with its primal mana, all magic and divine powers were in the palm of my hand.
“Ancient Demon! You are as powerful as foretold! In the name of the Almighty Skyfather, I, the Angel of Light Uriel, shall banish you from whence you came.”
Discarding its burning sword which had been frozen in mid air, it pulled out a huge spear.
“It doesn’t look like some regular spear… could it be the Lance of Longinus?”
“Ancient Demon! Since you know the origins of this lance, kneel before its sacred name, Hallelujah!”
“Shit, I really hope it isn’t that lance.”
Wharrrr
Sparks appeared and danced dangerously along the Lance of Longinus.
“Not good Johra, even I can’t get a reading as to how hot it is, it might really be dangerous this time around.”
“Hey, believe in me, I will counterattack this time around. Can one even kill a god with that Longinus?”
“Yes, now receive my blow and repent you wicked Demon!”
“Damn, just what way is that of speaking to your elders, when you think about it I’m your grandfather!”
“Have you said your final prayers? Confess, as I’ll now erase your existence!”
“Hm… this Skyfather, later I’ll have to have a talk with him about his upbringing abilities. Talking to their grandfather in this way….”
The very next moment, just as Uriel began her strike with the Lance of Longinus, I felt time around me come to a stop.
“This…!”
