Everyone in the room was silent, naturally shaken by the revelation. It goes without saying that since the room only has Space-Time Realm and Archangels, they all were aware of the calamity of the Extinction Sphere all those years ago. "Waremis, are you sure this char was from the other side that got disconnected?"
Waremis nodded before taking out another star chart. This one, however, was very old. "Gabriel and a few of you probably still have some of this. If you check this star chart, you can see how the Universe was back before it was divided. It also compensates for the natural expansion of the Universe, galaxy merging, and things like that, so it should still be more or less precise."
Everyone understood what Waremis meant and quickly compared the old star chart with the one acquired from the Archangel with no name. Sure enough, the half of the Universe on both charts were quite similar. They had their differences since too much time had passed. Nonetheless, the overall structure was still the same. "There is no doubt they are the same," said Gabriel.
Sandalphon calmed down after confirming the news before asking, "So, what now? We know he probably came from the other side of the Universe, but what was his objective? For example, this thing about wanting to take the Reincarnation Path away from the Devils was something that only appeared in our minds after the Soul Worms. Why did he need that?"
Waremis shook his head. "That's as far as I could check back when I was still in the Archangel Level. Yet, let's be honest here. Can you really confirm that what he wanted was the Reincarnation Path? If it was me, I would definitely have some other ideas in mind. The Reincarnation Path thing most likely was just an excuse to fool your altered minds. But then again, it might have really been his real objective."
"There are just too many questions," Gabriel added. "For example, why did he choose the Angels instead of using the Soul Worms to control the Devils?"
Spiegel raised his hand. "I think I know why. While I was in the Ruins of the Stars, I heard that the Soul Worms are very delicate. They can only work with similar types of souls, and there can't be much difference. The Angel Races just so happened to fit this criteria. If I'm not wrong, the Devils and their mentalities made it impossible to create Soul Worms for all of the different types. Let alone the Realm of Gods, where you have an almost infinite different number of races with very distinctive souls."
"I see..." Gabriel nodded. "I think you are right on this point. Another question is how did he get his hands on these Soul Worms? Perhaps we truly received a visit from someone from another Universe."
Waremis didn't deny that. "It could be, although I find it unlikely. After what we say in The Ruins of the Stars, I don't think someone who comes from the outside would be captured by someone from the inside. Their methods are just much more advanced than ours. Their... technology... or whatever they called their abilities, was truly a marvel."
Just like that, the angels began to discuss that Angel and things they could do to find out more about him.
Suddenly, an Angel entered the room to give a report. "Master Gabriel, the city Angels are starting to grow impatient. If we don't give some explanation soon, we will probably have quite some revolt."
Gabriel thought about it for a moment and decided to go out. "Alright, for now, we will mobilize our forces to look for clues about this Angel... if he is an Angel at all. I refuse to believe he knew Waremis would kill the Soul Worms, so he definitely escaped in a hurry. Perhaps he is still in the Heavens."
The other Archangels and Space-Time Realm Angels agreed with Gabriel. They coordinated with each other and decided to share information as they spread the news.
Meanwhile, Gabriel addressed all the Angels in Arcadia City. He decided he wouldn't hide anything, explaining that they had all been controlled by the Soul Worms, thus the huge sense of loyalty in their minds. Fortunately, one of the clans of the angel realm had a different type of soul. They found a solution, and that culminated in everyone's awakening.
That obviously caused a huge commotion. There were those who believed and those who didn't. But in any case, it wasn't like the majority could do anything about it. Perhaps it was because they were Angels and naturally a lot more pacifist than the beings of other realms that things didn't go out of control.
Gabriel then used his Divine Sense to share a picture of the Archangel they believed to be behind the whole thing, asking everyone to spread the information. He even offered a prize in Rank Seven Heavenly Stones that opened the eyes of every single Angel in the city. As low as the chances of someone knowing something was, when you put an entire realm together, perhaps there would be some lead.

During the next few weeks, the archangels and Space-Time Realm experts spent their time putting everything in order all over the Heavens. At the same time, the Spatial Soul Spectral Oscillation Liquid was brought everywhere. As big as the Heavens might be, Waremis truly had a lot of it. Given the time necessary, they were sure they could cover most of the cities in the Heavens.
Yet, Gabriel and the others suddenly received a message from an unusual force. "The Vruves..."
Gabriel brought the news to the table so the Archangels could discuss it. "It seems like they want to meet us."
Waremis, who although had much lower cultivation, was also there. The Archangels respected his seniority and knew he would eventually reach the Archangel Realm again with his knowledge. "Why now? They are probably thinking about using the tumult in our Heaven Realm to try something."
Gabriel then spoke about the content of the message he received. "They say... they have information regarding the Angel we are looking for."
Immediately, the idea of ignoring the Vruves' call disappeared.
