227 Sinners Mark (2/2)
Some of the Fallen were surprised when they saw Rank 3 life form coming their way. But after Sebastian gave them a signal, they understood he was part of the Magi invader force.
Zatiel did not go to the group and instead, he went with Ezequiel to the border of the vacuum and focused on it.
If he were able to analyze the energy left by that Being of Laws, he could identify his origin, but with his current power, just touching that energy would mean death. He was, however, still able to obtain some information by the destruction that was present in front of him.
”So who of you was dumb enough to open a portal into a High Plane, draw the attention of a Being of Laws and get marked by the World Consciousness?” Zatiel's voice was calm as if those events were not a big deal.
The Fallen were shocked. This man reached this place a few minutes ago, and without having to speak with anyone he was able to deduce everything that happened.
They were all Rank 4 life forms but this was the first time they experienced anything like this and it shocked them to their core. And yet the man in front of them spoke like it was something common.
Heinz, Totto, and Zitra were not surprised. The trio was already accustomed to Zatiel insight.
After a moment the Lich sighed and he took a step forward.
”It was me, I created a portal to the Negative Energy Plane. However, I don't understand how a mere Rank 4 spell could have drawn the attention of a Being of Laws.” Totto was still confused by what just happened and could not understand it.
”Of course he was not drawn to your portal, but you create a connection to a random place of the Negative Energy Plane. You had horrible luck and in that place, there was a Being of Laws. He may not have the power to pierce the Crystal Wall of a Middle World but if someone opens up a portal for him, he will definitely try to pass through it and devour everything inside that world.”
The reason why Zatiel knew so much and could speculate what that Being of Laws could have done, it was because more than once the Incarnation of Death and Destruction used the portal some fools opened to the Abyss to enter a world or plane and ravish them.
”Pass me the spell you used to create the portal.” Zatiel was still focused on the vacuum as he spoke to Totto.
The Fallen did not understand what was happening and how someone at Rank 3 could know so much and order that powerful Lich. When Sebastian saw their expression, he remained silent since even now he did not understand the man with three eyes.
Even though Gate to the Underworld was a powerful spell that any necromancer would want to have, Totto knew it was not special in Zatiel's eyes so he did not hesitate and gave the Neo-Demon a crystal with the information.
Zatiel took the crystal and after he made some alterations to the spell he launched it back to Totto.
”The spell will now connect to a location of the Negative Energy Plane where no Law Beings are present. It also had a cloaking function to make it more secure. However, you will not be able to use it in the Beta Heavenly World, unless you want your True Soul to perish.”
Totto was ecstatic when he heard that Zatiel fixed his spell, and like all the rest was impressed by his words.
Having such a high understanding of the Negative Energy Plane, that you can know where Being of Law resides or not is unbelievable. But everyone could detect the confidence in the Neo-Demon's words
Of course, the Lich cared most about the information regarding his soul being destroyed. Luckily for him, Zatiel did not leave him in suspense.
”The rune in your True Soul has many names, but the most common is Sinner's Mark. Your actions have produced great damage in this world, but since it was an accident, you were only marked. If you ever again try to create a portal to any other plane or world inside the Beta Heavey World, the mark will pulverize your True Soul. You should be able to get rid of it when you enter Rank 5 and no longer can enter this world.”
