Chapter 2554 Mission Completed
At the sight of the big seraph, five times larger than the soul fragment that had accompanied him on his long journey, Minos’ eyes widened as he sensed the cultivation of this enormous creature.
‘A Supreme? Level 120?’ He opened his mouth, but no words came out.
Even after all his travels, Minos hadn’t expected to meet such a powerful seraph after completing his mission.
This being knew his name, but Minos wasn’t surprised. The seraph’s soul fragment that had accompanied him on this journey could read his mind, so he imagined that this being before him could do the same.
“The one who guided me here said that he had died. Could you be his reincarnation?” Minos asked, his voice steady despite the whirlwind of thoughts in his mind.
He already knew that reincarnation was possible. He also knew that the seraphim collected the souls of their race members to give them new opportunities through reincarnation. The exact mechanics eluded him, but he understood these beings had a unique approach to the cycle of life and death.
The gigantic creature smiled at Minos and slowly descended, his wings folding as it landed near where Minos stood.
“Not exactly,” he said in a gentle tone, approaching Minos as his body shrank, adopting a friendlier and more approachable form. “I am the guardian of this sanctuary. I know everything that all seraphim who have ever existed have experienced. Including the experiences of their soul fragments.”
Minos’s eyes widened slightly, absorbing this revelation. The seraphim’s transformation and the warmth in its tone put him somewhat at ease, yet the gravity of the encounter was not lost on him.
“That is impressive, I must say.” Minos picked up an object he had brought back from the Spiritual World and kept in his spatial ring all these years.
The creature, now in human form, took the item from Minos’ hands, ending the human’s mission for the Seraphim Tribe.
“Do not think too much about this. I am a servant of my lord. My powers come from their greatness. One day you will see a little of the glow of that power.
I wish you luck on your journey to the Upper Realm. Unlike us, you will have a real chance to ascend to immortality, Minos.”
As he said this, the seraph processed the souls of those seraphim who had died in the Spiritual World, processing their memories and then releasing them to begin their life cycles anew.
Minos watched with interest as the essences transformed into small, bright, star-like singularities before exploding one by one with the birth of new essences.
Colorful butterflies formed from the mist of the explosion of these little stars, each flap of their wings releasing a strange essence into the air.
“What will happen to them now? Will they be reincarnated and return to the Spiritual World?” Minos asked.
“No,” said the leader of this dimension, as he motioned for Minos to follow him. “The Spiritual World no longer needs our protection. There is someone else who will do that for them.”
Minos smiled, imagining this protector was himself.
“And even if he doesn’t want this role, the Spiritual World has already shown itself. There’s nothing left for us to protect.”
“What is the real function of seraphim in the Spiritual World, Senior?”
He continued to walk forward, not looking back. “Do you know how rare life is in the universe, Minos? To you, the universe appears as a vibrant and powerful realm. You have witnessed countless creatures, diverse races, and numerous worlds. It is easy to imagine the entire universe being filled with such life and energy.
Regrettably, this is not the reality. While your planet is able to sustain a diverse array of species, it is a rarity among the vast expanse of the universe. For every planet like yours, there exist approximately 10 million planets that struggle to nurture even a single intelligent race. And when it comes to races capable of advanced development and cultivation, they are even more scarce.
Your world, like a few others in the universe, is one of those special places. But without proper protection, such a world could easily end. You should know that. You alone have already wiped out several civilizations and can even destroy planets with your current powers.”
The Supreme looked over and saw that Minos had a tough expression on his face.
“Don’t worry, I don’t blame you. My lord doesn’t see beings like you as good or bad, lawbreaker or an enforcer. Your actions are just… natural? f𝗿eweb𝗻o𝐯𝐞l.𝚌om
It doesn’t matter. Our mission was… is to protect planets with characteristics like yours that have not yet been discovered by stronger civilizations. Our principal mission is to give these planets a chance to grow, to connect to the universal society on their own, and to produce high-level warriors like you.”
It sounded incredible. But Minos couldn’t help but be skeptical about this ‘kindness.’
“Why? What does your lord get out of it?” he asked without blinking.
“I don’t know exactly what it is.” The seraph laughed bitterly. “My lord hasn’t bothered to explain it to me. But surely there’s a greater reason. But perhaps you’re closer to the truth than I am.
Have you ever wondered why immortal beings seek heirs to take over their positions in the Upper Realm? There must be something to it, right? It can’t just be competitions to entertain them.”
“Yes, I agree,” Minos replied solemnly, thinking better of the fact that there must be a reason the True Celestials want heirs.
Unfortunately, he still didn’t have enough knowledge, understanding, or power to get close to the truth.
“So all True Celestials do the same as your lord?” Minos asked, changing the subject a bit.
He didn’t know what the reason could be for True Celestials to want heirs, and the being in front of him didn’t seem to have the answer or even invest his time in questioning the why of things.
“No. Only a few. My lord is the Celestial God of Worlds. He handles most of the worlds in our universe. There is only one other from the Upper Realm who has a similar function to them. These two True Celestials are the ones who watch over and protect life in the universe. The others, well, I don’t know what they do. But they have their functions.”
He stopped in front of a cliff, from where Minos could soon see a large and majestic village, the core of the Seraphim tribe.
“Anyway, those you have returned to my people today will soon be reborn and take new positions. The cycle will continue, this time in another area.”
“What about me?”
He flew in front of Minos, motioning for the human to follow him. “Come with me. I have something to give you. This will end our mission so you can return to your original journey.”
