Twin Soul - Book 4: Chapter 14
Noe pointed toward the massive colossus portal and shouted while his Wind Walkers transmitted his messages throughout Linkeep Island, “What do you think that is? That is not a portal, but an actual Gateway Bridge connected between two realms. Such a gateway can only be open once every a million years with the help of a Watcher. How did you think the Demi-Humans came to Toria Continents? The same way. They came to our planet using the Gateway Bridge that Watcher Zorim had opened. Yes, that’s right. It was Watcher Zorim who brought the Demi-Humans to this planet to lower the human population in fear of another powerful Blood Mage like Vierna Pharm appearing again. As everyone should have known, Blood Magic has to use human blood as an energy source and the blood of Demi-Humans are useless to them. Is there any idiot here who knows the difference between the Gateway Bridge, Soul Bridge, magic portals, and the portals opened by Magical Portal Key?”
Took a short sigh, Noe continued to explain knowing no one know the real answer to that, “Portals that opened by a Magical Portal Key allow a small number of magical creatures, humans, and Demi-Humans to come to another planet or another realm using their actual physical form allowing them to live in a planet or the realm that wasn’t originally designed for them. Soul Bridge is the ability that is only available for Conjurer Mages allowing them to conjure their Soul-bound Creatures to assist them in battle while allowing the Soul-bound Creatures to use one hundred percent of their power as if they were fighting inside their realm. Magic portals that opened using magic spells such as [Demonic Hordes] greatly reduce the true power of creatures that entered into another realm. But in exchange, those creatures wouldn’t truly die when they get killed in another realm. The [Hell Gates] spell that Kain Bersk used to open portal gates connected to the Hell Realm after he transformed into a Devil Battlemage are also magic portals. Those magic portals could be allowing the demon armies and their Demon Lords to use up to ninety-nine percent of their true power when entered into another realm and they won’t really die when being killed but simply be transported back to the Hell Realm.”
Saint Michael started to laugh at Noe and asked, “No one cares about the difference between Gateway Bridge and other portals. Why are you wasting your time, Noe Clerico?”
Ignoring Michael’s question, Noe continued, “Now that an actual Gateway Bridge connected to Heaven Realm was opened, what does that mean to this planet? It meant the Archangels and all angels that flew through the Gateway Bridge were using their true physical forms. They will be able to use their true physical strength and magical powers here, as well as live in this realm until the next Gateway Bridge could be opened again.”
“That doesn’t sound so bad.”
“I agreed. Toria Continents is a massive planet. There is room for everyone.”
“The angels will protect us from the Rogue Mages and the Blood Mages. I think their presence here is going to be a great help to us.”
The world leaders quietly whispered to each other that they don’t mind having angels from the Heaven Realm in Toria Continents. Noe’s Wind Walkers transmitted everything the world leaders said to him.
Noe shook his head again in disappointment and said, “Open your stupid minds and see how many angels have gone through the Gateway Bridge already? Who is going to provide food for them for the next million years? Toria Continents is a massive planet. Yes, but where exactly do you think the angels are going to live? In some forests together with the magical beasts? Do you expect your positions as the Popes, Emperors, Kings, Queens, Lords, Dukes, Duchesses, Mayors, and Barons are going to mean anything for those angels? Do you expect the angels to work at the farm or some normal jobs for food and shelter? Of course not. They are going to enslave the humans, including the Demi-Humans to work for them. To serve them. Bring them food. Cook for them. Give them silver, gold, and platinum so they can craft weapons. Bring them magical training resources including rare crafting materials that even the Lords of the Colors don’t normally have access to. Just a Kain Bersk who can transform into a Devil Battlemage already makes the entire Toria Continents scared shitless. Now that all eight Archangels are here, do you think anyone in this realm can stand against them? If it wasn’t for me, the angels would have migrated into Toria Continents a very long time ago just like how the Demi-Humans migrated here from Byham Continents. Overpopulation is the reason why the Watchers kept fighting against each other for territories. Did you really think Watcher Zorim gave a f*ck about the human race? Watcher Zorim took this realm from Watcher Elror. Just like Watcher Elror took Toria Continents from Watcher Liessa. Someday another Watcher is going to take this realm from Zorim and the Watchers’ game will never stop. The more powerful warriors and magic casters a lower realm can produce for higher realms, the better for the Watcher who governs that realm. We are nothing but a number for the Watchers.”
Continuing using the [Vocal Blaze] ability, Michael said, “Toria Continents is being governed by Watcher Zorim. The Heaven Realm is also being governed by Watcher Zorim. Do you think she would want the angels of Heaven Realm to enslave humans of Toria Continents? I am not here to conquer this land, but to protect it per Watcher Zorim’s request. If you don’t trust your Watcher, then who can you trust? Noe Clerico? He is just a human.”
Noe said, “The angels of Heaven Realm wouldn’t enslave humans of Toria Continents huh? What about the Demi-Humans that came from Byham Continents? Byham Continents is another realm that is also being governed by Watcher Zorim. That realm was overpopulated and Watcher Zorim decided to migrate some Demi-Humans into Toria Continents. The reason why I didn’t kill all the Demi-Humans was that Watcher Zorim asked me not to. But look at what the Demi-Humans did. They weren’t really happy with the lands given to them. They formed an empire, declared war, invaded, and enslaved the humans. The angels are here to protect Toria Continents? Such bullshit.”
While everyone including Kain and Arthur was dismayed because of what Noe just said, Noe continued, “The Creator created Michael for only one purpose, which was to guard and protect Heaven. There was no reason why Michael wanted to open a Gateway Bridge if not for the invasion because any angels that died here would truly die since they went through the Gateway Bridge. The population of angels must have been overpopulated. Michael dared to come to Toria Continents today and opened the Gateway Bridge meant that he wasn’t looking for a peaceful migration. I don’t know how exactly Michael came to Toria Continents today. But if Watcher Zorim teleported him here from the Heaven Realm, then that means killing him here would truly eliminate him from the lower realms. Lords of the Colors, the World Leaders, do you prefer to be slaves to the angels? Or would you prefer to fight for your freedom?”
Saint Michael only smirked hearing Noe expose his plan. Michael felt like he had spent enough time listening to Noe Clerico already. He closed his eyes and firmly said, “Humans and Demi-Humans, if you fight against my angels, I promise to ensure my [God Heavenly Flame] will never stop burning your lands. Stand aside, or die. The choice is your.” Saint Michael then opened his eyes and demonstrated part of his [God Heavenly Flame] ability by releasing a massive flaming aura from himself that quickly spread out to cover the entire Linkeep Island. The fire aura then left Linkeep Island and hit the sea, turning it into a flaming sea that could be seen from miles away.
