Chapter 249 249: Subtle Connection
Just like that, Michael watched as Caleb and the other five in the star circle exuded a blinding orange light. The light illuminated the surroundings where an event that could shake the world. A historic moment happened. The ascension of a person to Tier 3 in both paths!
Caleb and the five dissolve into a puddle of darker-than-black liquid. They didn't scream in pain, nor did they display an expression of one. It's a painless yet visually horrifying process.
The puddle of liquid began to boil and produced bubbles for a minute under Michael's gaze.
As someone who has seen a lot of scenes, phenomena, storms, and rainbows in his thousands of years of life. The scene playing in front of him could still be considered normal. Yet, a rush of excitement, an emotion that became foreign to him after so many years, flooded his heart.
Who could blame him, though? He was about to ascend! Become an entire creature! Not human. Not a vampire. But a true higher being! A lifeform superior to humans and other creatures of the world. One of the mythical creatures recorded too many books.
"An angel!" Michael's eyes turned red. The puddle of black liquid levitated slowly in the air. A loud buzzing sound could be heard as it did so. A white intangible pressure came out from Michael's body and spread to the entire floor.
Suddenly, all the prisoners are touched by the pressure in the entire dungeon. Geniuses of their own right started to clutch their head in pain and fell to the ground, kneeling. Their eyes rolled upwards, showing the white sclera of their eyes as they lost consciousness. No one can stay awake in the presence of a higher being!
This is a rule. A legend that a lot of people who love mythology know. The information of a truly higher being is just too much for mere mortals to bear. That's why there is a quote 'Don't look at gods!
Although Michael hasn't reached that level yet. He already stepped at the lowest of that domain and truly became a divine creature. An angel!
Michael's body began to absorb the black liquid greedily. The strong suction on his body was akin to a vortex. His body appeared like it was hit by the surging waves.
In essence, he was now at a country-destroying level. He could fight a whole kingdom or country on his own.
'Strange...' Michael scanned his surroundings. Everything was silent as if nothing happened. However, the five prisoners and Caleb had been absorbed by him. 'Weird... Why could I still feel that kid's connection to me?'
Yes, once he absorbed something. He would establish a subtle connection between them. The kid he absorbed should've died, so there's no reason for him to feel a connection to a dead person.
Is it because he was now an angel that allowed him to feel the souls in the afterlife? No, that's not valid. After all, he couldn't feel Draco and the other five prisoners. It was only the kid.
"How is this happening? Why is that kid still alive?"
Michael muttered in confusion as he retracted his wings. His feet landed on the ground softly. He was certain that the kid wasn't in this world. So, it doesn't make sense that he is still alive. It was something deeper. He feels that the kid exists in another plane of existence. 'Could it be... Do other worlds really exist? Interesting! It seems that kid got reincarnated or something?'
Although he was an immortal and had lived for thousands of years. Reincarnation is a foreign concept to him. It was a subject that he didn't really know about and was skeptical about it.
A smirk suddenly appeared on Michael's angelic face. "Next project. Try to find a way to go to the kid's location using our faint connection.'
He didn't know if he would ever find a way or if it was possible. However, it was indeed possible. It would open up infinite possibilities for him! Since he knew that there were possible other worlds. As a higher being. He wasn't contented on one world! He wants to conquer them all! The world he was in was too small for him!
What Michael didn't know. Caleb was indeed not dead. But his soul had just started to wander randomly in the river of time. He hasn't been transmigrated yet.
