Death... and me

Waremis seemed a lot younger than Spiegel, although one couldn't rely on appearances in the cultivation world. Different from Spiegel, Waremis wasn't in the Space-Time Realm. He wasn't far, though. By feeling his Divine Sense with their Divine Sense Bending Skill, Rean and Roan could tell that he was at the Peak Stage of the Elemental Space Realm. "Hello there."

Waremis nodded at the twins. "There is no need for pleasantries. I'm not Spiegel. Aelrie already told us what you need. Once we leave the Ruins of the Stars, you want to use the Temporal Connection Gap that our clan has under its control. Considering the importance of the Ruins, we decided to accept."

Surprisingly, Waremis seemed to have higher authority in the conversation than Spiegel. The latter just kept smiling, not feeling the least bit bothered by Waremis's attitude. "Alright, then, I guess we are ready. Follow us."

Spiegel's group then left the room, followed by Rean and Roan right behind. The twins knew that path already. They were going back to the Teleportation Room where they arrived before.

Sure enough, the room was filled with angels of the clan, waiting for Spiegel, Waremis, and Aelrie. "Sir, all the Divine Stones are ready. You will look like any other teleported angel that arrives in Arcadia. Please be careful."

Spiegel then looked at Rean and Roan. "Can you send Roan into Rean's Dimensional Realm?" Obviously, they didn't know that the twins shared the same Dimensional Realm, so they thought each one of them had their own. "It will be better if Roan doesn't appear until we get to the entrance of the Ruins."

Roan didn't mind and quickly disappeared into the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. Only Rean stayed behind, as he looked like an angel anyway. "Is that enough?"

Spiegel confirmed Roan was gone and that no clues of his Dark Element Affinity were left behind. "That's good. Let's go."

Waremis and Spiegel stepped on the teleport formation, followed by Rean. Aelire, on the other hand, seemed quite annoyed. "I really wanted to go, you know."

Waremis immediately denied it. "You will stay here. If something happens to us, you will have to take care of everything. We can't risk our bloodline during this endeavor. You have always been reckless, but even you should understand the importance you carry now that we are going to the Ruins, right?"

Aelrie sighed in response. "Yea, yea... But you better make everything you can to come back. Father is strong, so he will protect you all."

Spiegel smiled at her. "Even I can't guarantee anything, little girl. There will be no lack of Space-Time experts entering this ruins with us. Nonetheless, I'll do my best to at least survive with everyone."

"That's enough," Waremis wasn't in the mood to continue that gloomy conversation. "Spiegel, you take the lead. Let's go."

Rean was still puzzled about all that bloodline conversation. Still, since it had nothing to do with him, he didn't ask. Not to mention they already said they wouldn't tell him anything.

Several Rank Five Heavenly Stones were put on the teleport formation, which shined in response. The angels around activated it right after. With a flash of silver light, Rean, Spiegel, and Waremis disappeared.

Arcadia City is the most important city in the Heavens. It was located at the very center of the Angel Realm and was also where one could find the real Temporal Path, the one that never expired. The city alone might even be called a country due to how big it was. It expanded over a thousand kilometers, holding more than a hundred billion Angels from several races.

Yet, even with such a size, it could be said to be one of the most organized cities in all three realms. The Angel System worked like well-lubricated gears, all doing what they were supposed to be.

In this same city, somewhere near the Temporal Path, there was a building with hundreds of different teleport formations. And this was only one of such buildings spread across the city. Today, one of those many teleport formations flashed with Silver Light, revealing three figures on top of it. Naturally, they were Spiegel, Waremis, and Rean.

Rean immediately spread his Divine Sense, which could now reach a distance of 140 kilometers. 'A Utopia indeed,' Rean thought after checking everything for a moment. In this breath moment, Rean looked for very specific things.

First, he wanted to see if there were any formations in place that would lock down his Divine Sense, but there were none. Everyone could use their Divine Senses as they pleased in the city. Even the buildings were no exception. Rean could see everything, which showed how much the Angels trusted each other. 'No, it is better to say that they simply don't expect anyone to do anything wrong,' he concluded.

The second thing he checked was one of the most common things when you check a huge city, infights. A city of this size was bound to have misunderstandings here and there. Some stealing too. As well as a lot of suspicious individuals covering their tracks. Yet, Rean couldn't find a single one of those things. There were only smiles and respectful conversations everywhere. Even when opinions diverged, they would be discussed in a calm manner until an agreement was reached. As for Stealing and shady guys, not a single one was in sight.

Rean smiled at Waremis and Spiegel after seeing all of that. "This is truly exemplary. Everyone seems to trust each other a lot. I can't see a single trouble occurring in the entirety of my Divine Sense. Should I say as expected of the Angel Race?"

However, Waremis's eyes narrowed when he heard that. "A ridiculous facade, that's all it is. That's not what we truly are."

Rean was taken aback by those words. "What do you mean?"

Yet, Waremis did not answer and simply exited the Teleport Formation. Spiegel, on the other hand, gave Rean a warning. "Don't ask more than you should."
