Death... and me

Chapter 2105 Fake And Forced

"That would be Xans City." Hastian continued to answer the questions without hiding anything.

Roan looked in the Jade Slip and quickly found Xans City. Within the few cities being shown in Region 12096, Xans was indeed quite close. With Kentuck's speed, it shouldn't take more than 4 days for them to arrive. "Xans City... Which other Cities have Teleport Formations capable of sending us to the Center of Heavens?"

Unfortunately, Hastian could only shake his head. "I told you before. I don't know much about the Regions far away from the center. I know that Xans City has one because it was the Teleport Formation I used to get here. Other than that, I'm clueless. But there is one thing I can tell you. Teleport Formations capable of sending you to the Center of Heaven is very rare the further you get from it. I doubt you will find another one in this Region 12096."

'At least this much is similar to the Realm of Gods,' Roan thought for a moment. 

Roan then pondered a little about his next course of action. He didn't want to use Xans City's Teleport Formation since it was pretty much guaranteed that it would be heavily guarded. It was going to be the case even if Rean and Roan didn't appear, let alone now that they were being searched for.

What worked for them was that no one would expect them to go to the Temporal Path. The Temporal Path of the Heavens was also located in the biggest and most important city in the Heavens, Arcadia. There were always at least two Archangels there, guarding the entrance. Even if the Angels put extra defenses because of them, it wouldn't be that much. 

Roan then checked the other cities in Region 12096 and decided to go to an average city called Blucan. 'Kentucky, change direction. Follow the path I will send you.' Roan immediately contacted Kentucky outside.

Kentucky nodded and immediately changed his direction. Rean saw that, but because Roan was charing the memories of his plans, he already knew where they were going. 'It's better if I go inside the city alone to gather information. Ask this Angel in the Dimensional Realm if we should be afraid of anything in case we start asking many questions.'

Roan nodded, already intending to do that. "Hastian, right? Do you have places to sell information here in Heavens?"

"Sell information?" Hastian pondered a bit. "I don't think you will find any Angel City selling information. But if all you want is to acquire information, you just need to go to any regional office available in most cities with a hundred million or more inhabitants. Other than some maintenance fees for the office, you won't need to pay anything else. The information itself is free. Of course, even we Angels have restricted information that can't just be told to anyone. If what you need to learn is within this range, no amount of Heavenly Stones will be enough to buy it."

Roan didn't quite like it. He preferred to simply pay to some information black market and get whatever he needed. Yet, there didn't seem to be such things in Heaven. "I don't know if I should call the Angels' way of making things exemplary or just boring."

He quickly shook his head and continued. "Since restricted information can't be bought for any amount of Heavenly Stones, how do I acquire them?"

"You will need to register for a higher position within our Heaven Realm Cultivation System," Hastian explained. "Every Angel who reaches the Soul Transformation Realm will receive an identification as part of this system. From there, you can apply for more information according to your rank."

"Rank?" Roan got puzzled. "I thought you Angels didn't separate yourselves through these methods. You don't even have Countries."

Hastian laughed in response. "Hahaha! Even you Devils can look cute sometimes. Of course, we don't! This Rank System doesn't make anyone more important than someone else. That's not how it works. Our Heaven Realm Cultivation System only records what you can acquire through your position within it. For example, a Space-Time Realm Angel obviously has a much higher rank than a Soul Transformation one. Because of this, he is entitled to better Heavenly Stones."

"However," he continued. "That doesn't give him the right to give orders to that Soul Transformation Realm Angel. The only organization in our Heaven that requires angels to follow orders is the Heavenly Army. And that's just because we need to be ready in case the Realm of Gods, Underworld, or anyone else decides to attack. Otherwise, we wouldn't even have an army to start with."

Roan understood. "Having a Soul Transformation Realm Angel using high-rank Heavenly Stones would be a waste, so you at least control it."

Hastian nodded. "That's pretty much it. We won't stop anyone from growing, but that doesn't mean we will waste resources. Resources are given to us by the Heavens. How could we misuse them?"

·ƈθm Roan couldn't help but think how everything in Heavens seemed so different. They were practically a Utopia. Still, Roan felt like something wasn't right about the way things worked here in Heavens.

It was then that Luan, who was watching the interrogation out of curiosity, sent Roan a Divine Sense Message. 'Father, I kind of feel everything to be so... fake... or forced.'

Roan looked to the side where Luan was watching and immediately agreed with him. 'Indeed. I was wondering why it bothered me. This system does seem somewhat fake and forced. However, I can guarantee that Hastian isn't lying, either. But even though he isn't lying, his words strike me as not being his own words.'

Roan then closed his eyes to think for a moment before continuing. "Alright, you Angels are very nice and all. Let's forget about it for now. I'll try to get the information I need first. If I find that I need a higher level of access, maybe I'll try registering in this system of yours."
