Chapter 273: Genesis and the Apocalypse 2 (1/2)

The formation of Half-planes is a subject we’ve delved into multiple times. There was once a scholar who hypothesized that these dimensional planes were actually a failed creation of the Creator. The reasoning behind his theory was twofold. One was that a complete Plane of existence and a Half-plane both shared a significant number of similarities. Second, while the two were vastly similar, Half-plane lacked a day and night cycle. Moreover, Half-planes were directly linked to the endless void. Should a creature accidentally cross over the boundaries of the Half-plane, it would get devoured instantly. Normally, these Planes were devoid of life. Because there is no day and night cycle, ordinary plants aren’t able to survive either.

There are still a whole host of mysteries in this world for us to uncover. The Creator blessed mankind with intelligence which allowed us to apply our wits to solve a variety of problems. I believe that sooner or later, every mystery in this world would be unravelled by us humans. Perhaps this is the real test given to us by the Creator.

“Speaking of which, you’re from the Blood Sea right? Have you ever wondered how the Blood Sea was formed?”

Because I was so overwhelmed by all the information I’ve learnt thus far, I ended up unintentionally staying quiet for a long while. Probably bored and also a little impatient, the statue spoke up once more to disrupt my contemplations: “I bet you don’t even know why you’re here right now.”

“…I’m here because the Shadowcat Princess, Meisian, directed me here…where I really want to be is Abaddon…err, is there any other reason I should know of?” Each time this statue touched upon this topic, I made sure to measure my words carefully. After all, the fact that I had transmigrated into this world was a miracle that boggles the mind. What I truly feared was that something bad would happen should this secret ever get out…not that an almighty divinity like him would care so much about me to begin with…would a human ever care about the thoughts of an ant? Clearly not, unless it had some kind of research value.

“I said before, being able to awaken me means that you must have had some kind of deep connection to one of my descendents. Perhaps you might think that all Fallen Angels are my descendents, that’s where you are wrong. The kids who truly qualify as my descendents are far and few between. One identifying trait is that they all have purple wings.”

“Purple wings…”

“That’s right, ordinary Fallen Angels have black wings, only my descendents are worthy of a more regal purple hue.”

REPORT AD

‘Yi Yi’s wings were purple then too…so that’s why they weren’t black…she’s actually the descendent of Lucifer…then was the reason why she sent me here because of this statue? Why does it feel like I’ve gotten myself into a whole new mess again…don’t tell Yi Yi was using me from the start?’

“I’m sure you’ve realized by now, you’re not the first nor are you the only one sent to the Blood Sea. You are, however, the only one who successfully made it before me and that’s why, you should feel proud.”

‘Proud? What’s that? I have no idea what you’re talking about…’

Honestly, I had always thought of myself as a lucky person. Even after I died saving Yi Yi, I was actually satisfied. Although we barely knew each other then, but the moment she was that I was useful, I died with gratitude in my heart.

REPORT AD

Putting it like that, it must have really sounded laughable to some. To die for another and then to feel grateful towards that person instead simply because of those simple few words…was there anything more ridiculous than that? But even so, I really felt complete then. At least, right on my deathbed, I managed to do something that I felt was right; I helped a girl that was in trouble and that girl even became my fiancee and helped me reincarnate, purely out of gratitude.

From that moment on, I worked my hide off to try and reach Abaddon to find her…just like how I desperately wanted to return to the Western Human Realm to find Nicole. And yet, here, right now, the answer that I got was that it was all just some giant plot? A farce?
