"But we do know that he is related to everything that has happened," said a voice within the Space-Time Realm angels. The other Space-Time Angels looked at the owner of that voice with surprise, seeing that he stopped the talk of the Archangels.
Yet, the Angel didn't mind it and simply stepped forward. On his side, an Elemental Space Realm angel followed with a serious expression on his face.
Gabriel narrowed his eyes as he looked at the Space-Time Realm angel. Yet, for some reason, he felt that the real pressure came from the Elemental Space Realm Angel instead. "I know all the forces that Space-Time Realm experts within it. You are Spiegel from the Holamenor Clan, isn't that correct? As for the Angel on your side... I can feel some familiarity from him."
He was right. Spiegel was the one to step forward. Obviously, the guy on his side was Waremis, the real leader of the Holamenor Clan. "Hehe, Gabriel, Gabriel... It's been so long that you can't even recognize my aura anymore? I'm a Holamenor Clan member, so who do you think I am?"
Gabriel opened his eyes wide. There was only one Angel of the Holamenor Clan that could talk to him like that. "I see... It's been a long time indeed, Waremis. I still remember that you died. Still, it seems like you were lucky enough to reincarnate back in your clan. I wonder what price you paid to get this opportunity."
Some of the newer Archangels didn't know Waremis, but the twelve original definitely knew. Sandalphon obviously was one of them. "Waremis, you died after this situation turned out like this. I still remember how you tried to wake us up but to no success. Yet, here we are today. Our minds coming back to normal... does it have something to do with you?"
Waremis nodded as he pulled a seat from the sides and joined the round table, not caring about his much lower cultivation at all. Spiegel only stood on his side, pretending to not notice the weird expression of the other angels around.
Following that, Waremis took twelve vials of his Dimensional Realm before throwing one to each of the Archangels. "It was me, indeed. And the liquid in these vials is the reason that you were all released from your prison."
"What is this?" Gabriel asked as he opened the vial. Slowly but surely, the liquid inside began to evaporate. Gabriel could tell how it was merging with space itself, spreading in a flash everywhere. He quickly closed it, looking at Waremis and waiting for an explanation.
"It's called Spatial Soul Spectral Oscillation Liquid," said Waremis. "You can thank me already. It was because of this thing that my clan is now able to awaken all the angels in the Heavens. This liquid is capable of killing the soul worms inside everyone's mind and making them completely immune to those things."
"Soul... Worms?" None of the angels in the room liked that name at all. Naturally, a lot of whispers began to fly right and left, making the room quite loud.
Gabriel intervened. "Everyone, silence. I'm sure Waremis here will explain everything."
Waremis nodded and began. "First of all, the reason I died... and let's not forget you, the Twelve Archangels, helped to kill me, was because of this mind washing. It simply didn't work on me because, as you already know, my Holamenor Clan is slightly different from the other Angel Races. This subtle difference was what made us have a high resistance to the Soul Worms, which were created to match the souls of Angels."
Gabriel nodded. "I see. So, what are Soul Worms, and how did you find out about it?"
Waremis continued. "To explain that, I will have to talk about the Ruins of the Stars we had just explored." Waremis then began to explain his time there with Spiegel. How he entered with the twins, separated from them, just to meet them again inside the Spaceship. Last but not least, how the twins helped him to examine an angel they had captured and found out about the Soul Worms thanks to the advanced technology of the ship. Last but not least, how the twins helped him manufacture the Spatial Soul Spectral Oscillation Liquid. Of course, in his words, Rean and Roan were an Angel and a Devil. He didn't tell who they really were.
Yet, he never mentioned the Fragment of the Universe Foundation. He felt he owed the twins that much, so he kept quiet. Besides, he didn't really see if the twins acquired the fragments in the end or not. "And that's basically everything." Right after, Waremis waved his hand, summoning thousands of vials and throwing them at all the Angels in the room.
"My Holamenor Clan did its best to reach the most populous places in the Heavens. Yet, there is only so much we can do with our numbers. The Heavens are just too big, so we will need everyone's help to get rid of the Soul Worms that have been spreading in our Angel Realm during all these years." Waremis also warned them. "Remember, a single drop is enough to kill and make the hosts immune to the Soul Worms within a space of two million kilometers. No need to exagerate."
*Bang!*
Suddenly, Cassiel slammed the table. "Who says you have nothing to do with all of this?"
Waremis shrugged his shoulders. "I can see you are also back to normal, Cassiel. What, are you going to use your Archangel Realm strength to deal with me now that I'm just a puny Elemental Space Realm Angel? Go ahead. I've already achieved my objective and awakened the angels. I have no more regrets."
Cassiel gritted his teeth and sat down once again. "Pardon my outburst. It's just that I had been under the influence of this forced loyalty for so long that I'm quite distressed."
Gabriel nodded, understanding Cassiel's feelings. "We are all the same, Cassiel. Well, you had always been the most impatient of the twelve of us, so I was impressed you held that long." Gabriel then looked back at Waremis. "We owe you big for getting rid of the Soul Worms in our souls. Also, even though we were being controlled, it is a fact that we helped kill you back when we were taken by the Soul Worms. For that, I apologize. Now... do you know anything about that Archangel? Even we don't know his name."
Waremis shook his head. "I tried my best during all these years, but I've never been able to find anything about him. But then again, he had all of you in his hand, so it wasn't like I could move as I wished. Now that you are all back to normal, I guess it is time for us to start sharing information. That said, let's start."
