Chapter 1811 The Gate of Heaven
Chapter 1811 The Gate of Heaven
Ark suddenly felt his whole body become heavy as a golden gate that looked cryptic and ancient appeared on top of him. Silhouettes of angels or angel-like beings could be seen next to the gate as if they are light golems carrying the gate itself. The gate was circular and had intricate patterns that resembled the language of the angels.
“Make sure that Ark does not get absorbed by that gate! Limit Break: Summoner!” Adrian stated as he summoned all of his soulbounds.
The Gods of Light that were there are no longer idle as the Heavens Gate has already appeared. It is the golden gate that signified the entrance to the divine realm of the Gods of Light. The only one who has the right to open that gate was none other than the Goddess of Light Luminaria herself. .
The Gods of Light did not know what the plan was as they were only following orders from the Goddess of Light Luminaria. They soon realized what the plan was as they can feel the immense energy being sacrificed by the magic circle that the Angel of Humility Mikhail was sacrificing. They were also commanded to capture a special individual which is the chosen Nephilim.
The Gods of Light are not ignorant as they know that Ark is a singularity. What they did not know is what is the use of a singularity since there are no records of them from their followers. Only the Goddess of Light Luminaria know what which a singularity can do is why she parted that knowledge to the Angel of Humility Mikhail.
Mikhail thought that he was creating the magic circle and researching individuals called ‘Singularities’ because he wanted to become a god. What the leader of the angels did not know is that all these information was fed to him by the Goddess of Light Luminaria. She whispered and tempered the minds of all the angels including the smartest of the angels, Gabriel.
“The power is not enough. I need to sacrifice more.” The Angel of Humility Mikhail stated as the things that he has sacrificed were not enough to forcefully open Heaven’s Gate from the mortal realm’s side.
“You have enough sacrifices in front of you my dear, Mikhail. Use all those Lesser Gods for my benefit as they will be part of my glory upon my descent.” The voice of the Goddess of Light Luminaria whispered to the Angel of Humility Mikhail.
“As the will of the goddess, you shall be used as a way for her to be resurrected to the mortal realm. Be proud that your lives will be used for the greatest being of all.” The Angel of Humility Mikhail stated as his swords suddenly rose up from the magic circle.
The swords that rose up from the magic circle suddenly pierced two lesser gods at once which shocked those that were not skewered. The lesser gods of light looked at the Heaven’s Gate with indignation as they were used as materials. The two lesser gods suddenly turned into particles of light as part of their divine essence were absorbed by Mikhail’s two swords.
“Your sacrifice will not be in vain. Sleep while you can for a glorious future awaits when you rise from your sleep.” The Angel of Humility Mikhail stated as the two lesser gods vanished.
The two lesser light gods did not die permanently as their divine soul was sent back to the divine realms. The Goddess of Light Luminaria no longer has control over their souls as well since she used all of the captured parts of divine souls that she had. She had no problem with the lesser gods being sealed or sleeping for a century or two as she believed that she alone is enough to rule the mortal realm.
Adrian commanded all his soul bounds to retrieve Ark, but the four three angels of virtue stopped their march. Raphael, Uriel, and Camael can easily stop the march of all of Adrian’s soulbounds. Even Kanlaon’s Genesis Dragon Breath could be easily stopped by Uriel in her powered-up form with an equally powerful blast of light. Adrian is a bit thankful that the gods of light were rattled and did not join in on the fight.
“I can feel it opening! Help me, please!” Ark stated as he saw the Gate of Heaven slowly opening.
The Gods of Light felt their divine realm but also felt another connection. The divine soul fragments that they had given to the Goddess of Light Luminaria could no longer be felt. The gods of light knew that they were no longer tied to the Goddess of Light Luminaria which meant that they are free. Still, they cannot return to their divine realm as all gods of light share one divine realm due to the Goddess of Light Luminaria.
“I have finally attained freedom!” The God Magec stated as he suddenly exploded like a star but all he did was use some sort of teleportation magic.
“I am also no longer interested on being used for this ruse. Just like the God Magec, I no longer need to be here as I am free.” The Goddess Prende stated as she vanished by a powerful flash of light.
The remaining gods of light knew that they had to choose now. They should either join the Goddess of Light Luminaria or escape like what the other greater gods had done. The gods of light that had the ranks of greater gods went away as they do not line being under the Goddess of Light Luminaria. They would rather hide in a corner of the world and build faith than be a lapdog to a goddess that only thinks of herself.
The remaining lesser gods were hesitant but then they saw what happened to the two lesser gods that were sacrificed. All of them fled the Silver City as well because they would just be used and abused just like the two that were sacrifice. They would rather take their chances in the world than be under the Goddess of Light Luminaria.
“Useless! I have no use for all of you anyways.” The Five Angels of Virtue stated but the voice that came out was none other than that of the Goddess of Light Luminaria’s.
Even with all the gods of light no longer present to give aid to the remaining angels of virtue, the dragon kings were still having difficulty against the fully powered angels. It is not because the dragon kings are weak, but it is due to the fact that the domain of Heaven is now encroaching upon the Silver City. The Domain of the Goddess of Light Luminaria has started to permeate into the mortal realm.
[All beings that are not created by the Goddess of Light Luminaria will have their stats reduced by 20%.]
[All beings that are created by the Goddess of Light Luminaria will have 10% increased stats.]
[All Light Magic will deal 100% more light elemental damage.]
[All Light Magic will have 10% increased critical strike chance.]
[All Light Magic will have a 50% chance to return the mana used in casting the spell.]
[All those with the blessing of the Goddess of Light Luminaria will have an additional 5% status bonus.]
“I sacrifice all the treasures of the Silver City to fully open Heaven’s Gate!” The Angel of Humility Mikhail stated as the entire Tower of Babeland everything inside of it were turned into particles of light to be used as a sacrifice.
A powerful golden energy then poured into Heaven’s Gate and yanked it open. Golden stairs made of light suddenly appeared upon the Gate of Heaven opening as the silhouette of a woman could be seen. Ark tried to destroy the cage, but his body was chained in powerful light magic, and he was suddenly presented in front of the Gate of Heaven. Ark and the Goddess of Light Luminaria were now face to face with one another with the latter smiling like she has conquered the world.
Even if the Gate of Heaven is fully opened, the Goddess of Light Luminaria is still being blocked by an unknown force. This unknown force is the world barrier as it is still repelling the High Gods to descend despite the Gate of Heaven being opened. The Goddess of Light Luminaria knew this would happen which is why she made sure to have Ark.
“Hello, Nephilim. Be proud that your life will be sacrificed for me to descend upon the world. Your sacrifice would be for the greater good.” The Goddess of Light Luminaria stated as she forcefully created a small hole in the world barrier for her hand to slip out.
“Activate the Last Forbidden Magic Circle: Fate Switch!” The Angel of Humility Mikhail stated.
A golden thread suddenly manifested which shot towards the hand of the Goddess of Light Luminaria. The golden thread curled with her hands and the other end was tied to Ark. The golden thread became shorter and shorter until the Goddess of Light Luminaria and Ark were now at touching distance.
