Death... and me
chapter-2121

Indeed, there were lights everywhere in the ruins far ahead. However, Rean quickly noticed that those lights were not things like lamps. That's because the Ruins of the Stars are supposed to be enormous. During their time in the Holamenor Clan, Rean and Roan obviously asked more things about the Ruins of the Stars.

They heard from Aelrie that these ruins are supposed to be as big as some small continents in the Realm of Gods. The fact that Rean could see its entire shape meant that he was still very far away from the Ruins. The Spots of Light seemed to be concentrated in very specific points, which Rean doubted to be caused by simple lamps.

Yet, when he looked at the very forefront of the Delta Shaped ruin, it did give him the feel of a cabin. Once again, it was just the shape.

Rean then took his eyes away from the Ruins of the Stars, looking at his surroundings. "It seems very lively here," he mentioned to Spiegel.

Spiegel nodded. At the moment, there were hundreds of Angels, Devils, and Experts of the Realm of Gods around. They were all several kilometers apart from each other. Nonetheless, with everyone's Divine Senses, it was easy to spot all groups. "It's almost the agreed time, after all."

There was a very small group that kept themselves separated from the other three, though. "Who are those guys? Everyone seems quite focused on them." Rean pointed out in the distance. Angels, Devils, and Realm of Gods' groups had at least over a hundred members. The fourth group had nothing but ten, however. Yet, Rean could tell that all groups constantly paid attention to them.

Spiegel shook his head. "All you need to know is that you shouldn't get involved with them. They aren't the type of experts we can afford to offend. At least not until we get inside the Ruins of the Stars."

Rean nodded and didn't ask anymore. Nonetheless, Rean and everyone inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm could more or less guess their identities. 'They should be from the Vruve Organization, right? Or should we still call them Wafrol Forces?'

[It's better to call Vruve,] Sister Orb suggested. [The Wafrol Forces took over the organization and never bothered to change the name anyway. Everyone around probably knows them by Vruve as well.]

Roan kept his eyes on them too. 'Sister Orb, they once found the location of the Soul Gem System and destroyed Sunkan Planet in the process. I'm sure they have Divinity Realm experts within their ranks here. Won't they notice our presence?'

[They won't,] Sister Orb seemed pretty sure. [The System's Level compared to before is completely different. Not to mention we got it changed back then, don't you remember?]

Roan nodded. 'I'm just making sure it is the case.'

'We better ignore them for now. It is not time to get involved with that force, especially since it seems no weaker than any of the three Higher Realms,' said Rean.

No one had any issues with Rean's words. 'We shall do that.'

Rean then looked even further ahead at a group that was the closest to the Ruins. Well, it wasn't like they were that far since he could see them with his naked eyes. He glanced right after at Spiegel while pointing out, "Let me guess, those ones there are the Archangels, Elder Devils, and Divinity Realm Experts of all groups." Rean could identify some of them. For example, he could see Eishetha from the Elder Devils or Fosleve from the Realm of Gods.

"That's them indeed," Spiegel confirmed.

Each group had at least five experts at the highest cultivation level in there. Rean, obviously, paid attention to them. "Who are the Archangels there?" He could see five Angels with six pairs of wings each. It was easy to set them apart.

Spiegel also looked at them before saying, "The one in the front is none other than Raziel. Going back, you have Raphael, Michael, Sandalphon, and... and..." Spiegel seemed to go absent-minded for a moment when he looked at that last Archangel.

*Clap!*

Suddenly, Waremis clapped his hand right in front of Spiegel, which woke him up from his stupor. 'Focus! Don't become one of them. Your bloodline can only resist so much this close to him,' said Waremis through a Divine Sense Message.

Spiegel quickly ran Heavenly Energy through his mind, stabilizing his soul. 'Thank you. It won't happen again.'

He quickly looked at Rean before explaining, "Truth is, we have no idea who he is. He is the newest Archangel, but his name is hidden from all."

Rean obviously noticed the sudden change in Spiegel before Waremis clapped his hand in front of him. He didn't know what happened but knew Spiegel wouldn't tell him anyway. "I see..."

That same Archangel seemed to notice Rean's gaze and looked directly at him.

Rean felt a chill on his back as his Divine Sense Bending Skill could tell the Archangel was checking his body from top to bottom. Having a being at the highest cultivation in the universe prying into you wasn't a very good feeling.

In the end, that Archangel just smiled at him, thinking that Rean was another Angel just like the others. Right after, he turned his attention back to the conversation between the top experts of each group.

'Phew...' Rean immediately felt relieved when the Divine Sense disappeared. 'I guess that confirms my Angel Transformation is truly flawless as well.'

Rean took his eyes away from those experts and began to check the groups up closer. He wanted to see which of them were in the Space-Time Realm or below. "There seem to be quite a few Space-Time and Elemental Space Realm beings here."

Spiegel nodded. "Obviously. Those who are entering are definitely in the Space-Time Realm. There will probably be a few exceptions, like Waremis. But the majority will be similar to me."

Rean also added, "Of course, not counting those who will achieve the harmonization with the barrier to allow the higher-level experts to pass."

As Rean and Spiegel talked behind the Angel's Group, a voice suddenly echoed in everyone's mind. 'Everyone, it's time.'
