[SIDE B] DAY 5 – TRINITY

17:33

Ruins from Tower of Babylon

Crumbled pinnacle from Last Tower

Rubble from Temple of Doom


When Ms. Justice had heard the digital female voice from far below the rubble, she immediately took several back away from Ms. Graceful. The digital female voice continued with a flat tune.


“Weapon name – Skofnung… … …”


“User name – Justice… … …”


“Directly under – FuuRinKaInZanRai… … …”


“Employer – Killer Incorporation… … …”


“Confirmed… … …”


“Master’s order – Disintegrate… … …”


“Target locked… … …”


Hence, Ms. Graceful took a deep breath and gave a command.


“KALADANDA…”


Afterwards, the digital female voice responded.


“Affirmative… Enable auto-targeting mode… Countdown in five seconds… 5… 4… 3… 2… 1… Fire!”


Immediately, its power had blasted the Twelfths into a million pieces. However, its power did not surprise Ms. Justice and others. A moment later, Ms. Justice had started walking towards to Ms. Graceful.


Ms. Justice glanced down and said.


“Tch, everyone knows the power of your ultimate weapon – Pandora Box. However, nobody knows it also has a weakness.”


Ms. Graceful gritted her teeth. Meanwhile, Ms. Judgement continued where Ms. Justice had left off.


“Its weakness – it will not be able to make any analysis for two or more weapons from two different owners simultaneously, when both weapons were used only by the same person. Haha, that’s why… this is the end of you and your Pandora Box.”


Hence, Ms. Justice gently handed over the Skofnung to her twin sister. Such that, Ms. Judgement was holding the Skofnung on her left-hand and the Honjo-masamune on her right-hand.


Ms. Judgement glanced down boldly while she started her attacks.


“Now, try to analyze this…”


Ms. Judgement was attacking with the Skofnung. However, the digital female voice only initiated the analysis sequence for her original weapon.


“Weapon name – Honjo-masamune … … …”


“User name – Judgement… … …”


“Directly under – FuuRinKaInZanRai… … …”


“Employer – Killer Incorporation… … …”


“Confirmed… … …”


“Master’s order – Disintegrate… … …”


“Target locked… … …”


A vein popped out in Ms. Graceful’s neck, while she gave a command.


“SVALINN…”


Instantly several vertical and horizontal beams of light had shot out from the rubble, which had created a divine class of shield around her heavily wounded body. Meanwhile, Ms. Judgement turned to Mr. Hermit and said.


“Mr. Hermit blasted that shield off her!”


Mr. Hermit narrowed his eyes and replied.


“You! Do not order me again… I will get this done because our king has ordered me to do so… Geri and Freki, auto turret mode!”


An absolute zero potential energy had gathered in front of the gun barrels of Geri and Freki. A moment later, it blasted off a beam of electromagnetic energy onto her shield. Meanwhile, Ms. Justice laughed at her.


“Haha… Ms. Graceful, do you know… Weakness is a sin!”


Theoretically, Svalinn was still intact. However, its complex structure of molecules had started cracking. It was a matter of seconds before Svalinn broke down by the extremely high temperatures and pressure from the electromagnetic energy.


Then, Ms. Graceful gave out a command that totally had surprised everyone at the scene.


“Osiris! Deactivate – Grand Seal of Ra…”


A digital male voice from below the rubble had replied.


“Affirmative! Grand Seal of Ra deactivated! Ritual of the Summon now initialing…”


At this moment, Ms. Graceful was chanting in the Ancients’ mantras.


“…Come thou to thy temple, and fear thou not! Travel thou through the land among us, odorous at thy coming forth. Rebels behold us gazing upon thy face, glowing in its marvelousness. Behold the gods existing in the Place of the Dead! Behold the gods existing in the expanse of the universe! Come to me, thou unifier of heaven to earth, who caused his shadow daily in the land, messenger of heaven to earth! Behold the lord Set…”


Once, Ms. Graceful had finished her chants. A shadowy figure was standing in front of her. Hence, a male throaty voice had spoken.


“Tch, is it you… the unworthy who has summoned me in this realm.”


Ms. Graceful inhaled a sharp breath and said.


“Set! Slaughter them, and I will give this body to you.”


Set glanced over the shoulder and replied.


“For sure, I shall slaughter them and take their souls with me…”


Set paused for a second before he continued.


“By the way, I’m not a pervert or a lewd. Because of that, you can keep your body to yourself.”


On the other hand, Mr. Hermit shouted at the twins from behind.


“NO TIME TO ESCAPE… USE TELEPORT CRYSTAL, NOW!!!”


As Set took out an ornamental staff – Was. He was chanting his top-tier Ancients’ magic spells. Once, this magic spell had been unlashed. Its destructive power could be seen from miles away.

Observation platform from the sightseeing tower


Sudden combined effects of torrential precipitation and high wind reduced visibility to zero, which made the observation platform impossible to see. In addition, thunderstorms were accompanied by lightning blasts that could pose a hazard to anyone without proper shelter. However, there were seven shadowy figures still located on the platform. Six of them had bowed down to the last remaining one. The one who used to call himself – Yoshi. Under the reversal blood flow condition, he had changed into the leader of Seven Holy Angels – Michael.


Michael turned to a man who was standing on the left-hand side.


Standing short and stout with cream skin, this man has a possessed feel about him. He had deep dark grey eyes and his short, straight, black air was unconventionally styled. He wore perfectly pressed, casual clothes that were poorly-fitting.


“Doctor Zadkiel, can you make the effect permanent?”


“My lord, I would say it is possible. But the risk lies on the body itself. To make the blood flow into the reverse direction, your Cardiovascular System would suffer a heavy toll on it and your condition would also be quite unstable. There’s a chance of Cardiomyopathy.”


“Umm, not at this moment. Definitely, it is a risk. Although, I will be permanently fully awake. However, I’m not sure how this body could handle the reverse process.”


Doctor Zadkiel continued.


“Certainly, it would cause some degree of impact on your abilities.”


Shirio wrapped her arms around Michael and said.


“My love, I suggest… Let us handle the task at this moment.”


Michael turned to Professor Azrael and asked.


“When will the Six Demon Lords arrive?”


Professor Azrael took a look into the night sky.


“Approximately, later tonight around…”


Chamuel, member of the Seven Holy Angels. She was standing tall, and solidly-built with dark skin, this woman had an interesting feel about her. She had friendly light brown eyes and her shoulder length, straight, black hair forms a large afro. She wore clean, masculine clothes that are modest compared to others.


Her eyebrows rose and talked about her concern over the Six Demon Lords.


“Can we trust them anymore? Especially that incident at the end of the Omega War… Although, we exiled them to the Zero Dimension. However, personally I don’t believe they would forget what we had done to them. Especially, when all of us had agreed One God was weak due to his weak human form… Such that all of us had revolted against One God because that…”


Professor Azrael patted her shoulder.


“We all understand… Weakness is a sin…”


Her eyes sparkled when she continued.


“At the very end… We couldn’t conclude who would take the lead afterwards... Unfortunately, we had to resolve this by brawling each other… But, at least… We are in control of everything.”


Everyone nodded in agreement.


A moment later, Michael looked heavenward and said.


“Let’s hope this time, the negotiation will have a win-win outcome. Otherwise, we might have to enforce our rules and policies. Such that everyone must follow them.”


Professor Azrael shook his head.


“The problem isn’t from our rules or policies. They just want to take shortcuts and try to abuse the system. Such that they could take advantage of certain gray areas. Especially those human beings that would never put themselves in someone else’s shoes. People who live in poverty will still suffer, and for those others who have a comfortable luxury lifestyle… Probably, they don’t even want to know there are people who still go hungry…”


Michael turned to the others and said.


“This is the right time to make some changes. A true equality in modern society…”


Shirio interrupted the conversation.


“Why are you so sure about this?”


“Since, the Keepers are too busy on their own turf war and the Watchers are on our side. This time, we got the upper hand.”


Shirio rolled her eyes.


“Sigh, if the Watchers are on our side… Otherwise, we are between hammer and anvil…”


Michael gave a warm smile and replied.


“I believe in Gabriel and her crew.”


Shirio narrowed her eyes.


“Whatever… But, I think I saw HER…”


Professor Azrael rested his chin on his palm and said.


“Oh, is the Main Keeper herself… Umm, what does she try to accomplish in this timeline? She should already know that all other alternative timelines have been collapsed because of the Keepers’ fault. They had failed to be the Keepers of all dimensions… But, wait… Don’t tell me…”


Shirio looked at him and replied.


“Yup, anti-One God is here too. That’s why I keep on saying Gabriel won’t be on our side, if she is loyal to the anti-One God.”


“Umm…”


Michael turned to Shirio and said.


“We’ll see what will happen when we meet up with her later tonight.”


“As you wish.”

Airport District


A group of six shadowy figures were getting off from a flying vessel that had landed several minutes ago. The shadowy figure with a Kitsune mask was leading the group and slowly walking towards one of the hangars within the airport apron. Meanwhile, a huge shadowy figure with ten horns on its helm who had a husky male voice was speaking to the group.


“A bunch of cunning bastards. What do you think, Gabriel?”


The shadowy figure with a Kitsune mask replied with a toneless female voice.


“Raphael, that is what you think about them?”


Another shadowy figure wore a golden coat of chainmail with a golden mask, who carried two huge golden axes on its back.


“Of course, Raphael is right. Those bastards broke the alliance and exiled us to the Zero Dimension.”


Gabriel patted his shoulder.


“Metatron, we knew that. However, in order to bring back balance. We had to negotiate with the Seven Holy Angels…”


Then, another shadowy figure wore a hooded black cloak with a silver tragic comic mask, who had a singsong voice.


“Tch, the Seven Holy Angels… It is only a self-proclaimed title. Who cares about that?!”


Gabriel glanced around the surroundings and replied.


“Raziel, please be patient. Don’t you forget who sent us here? And our goal?”


Raziel lowered his head and replied.


“Sorry, my lady.”


“Don’t worry about that. We’ll see what they are up to once we meet them on the negotiation table.”

Airport Hangar


Professor Azrael opened his hands and announced.


“Finally, we met once again. Welcome, the Six Demon Lords!”


Raphael took a bow and responded.


“Especially, after thousands of years… Seven Holy Angels…”


Suddenly, Raziel interrupted.


“So, what are you up to? By the way, what is the purpose of this so-called negotiation.”


Professor Azrael glanced at Raziel and continued.


“Before that, we had something to show you… Behold, the DEVICE from One God!”


Gabriel took a closer look and asked.


“Ah, the Trinity from One God. However, which one?”


Professor Azrael answered.


“This is the Second Trinity. The First Trinity had been destroyed by the Ancients thousand years ago.”


Hence, Metatron interrupted the conversation.


“Tch, why the Second Trinity is with you. Didn’t you guys snatch it after the Omega War?”


Doctor Zadkiel replied boldly.


“We seized it and secured it in case it fell into the wrong hands.”


Metatron narrowed her eyes.


“Tch… Anyway, why didn’t you recover the Third instead of the Second? Do you think the Third, known as the Destruction Device, is far more dangerous than the Second?”


All of a sudden, Shirio glanced down at Metatron and answered.


“Don’t you know, the Second, also known as the Reborn Device always has a much higher value than the Third?!”


“Then, how about the First? For sure the First is priceless, since it is the Creation Device, huh?”


Shirio glowered.


“YOU, CHUBBY BITCH!”


Metatron clenched her fists.


“OH YEAH, YOU WANT A FIGHT, HUH?”


Michael exclaimed.


“STOP! BOTH OF YOU!”


Gabriel turned to Metatron and scolded.


“Metatron, please stay down. We don’t need this here.”


Metatron lowered her head and replied.


“My apology, my lady.”


Afterwards, Gabriel turned to Michael and questioned.


“Michael, why bring up this matter? What is the deal behind this?”


Michael replied with a warm smile.


“We want to recreate the Garden of Eden and we need your help.”


A moment later, Raziel broke the silence.


“Garden of Eden… You are mad… You are talking about… recreate the dimension which had already been destroyed a long time ago. I cannot believe… This is possible.”


Doctor Zadkiel replied boldly.


“Of course, it is possible. Otherwise, we won’t tell you… However, we also need the First Device in order to do so… Otherwise, that’ll be a highly unstable dimension. Such that it might collapse with others and become another Big Bang…”


Michael made a hand gesture and indicated Doctor Zadkiel should have stopped there. Then, Michael spread his arms wide and said.


“We need the First Device and we know he had it… And we need your help… Please, help us to retrieve the First Device from him.”


Gabriel rested her chin in her palm and replied.


“Interesting…”


Michael looked at her and asked once again.


“Gabriel, will you help us?”


Gabriel pondered for a moment and then offered.


“How about… You give me the Second Device now, and he will recreate the Garden of Eden for you.”


Michael narrowed his eyes a little bit.


“So, that means it is a NO from you.”


Gabriel glanced at Michael.


“Kind of… You should know, right now… Since One God is dead, only he can operate these two devices. As the anti-One God himself, for sure he has no interest in recreating such a child’s play. His goal is to create Heaven once again. Such that everything will be in order once again. For us, we could finally go back to our homeland…”


Suddenly, Shirio interrupted Gabriel’s counteroffer.


“So that he could rule over everything?! Hell NO, we won’t allow him to do so!”


Michael glanced at Shirio for a second and then he answered.


“Doesn’t he always overestimate himself and his abilities by comparing with One God? Seriously, we all know his abilities couldn’t allow him to do such a thing. By recreating Heaven, he puts on an act and try to deceive us… Gabriel, you know this is absolutely wrong doing. By putting him into power, I believe things won’t be the same anymore…”


Gabriel insisted.


“Michael, please listen up. We are all asking for a change. However, a change which only could balance the orders of the dimensions isn’t enough. What we really need is… An absolute virtue! No more balance, just pure virtue.”


Michael exclaimed.


“This is ABSURD!”


Gabriel bawled.


“What about yourself? You also want to recreate the Garden of Eden. We are exactly the same.”


“You… Blasphemy...”


Meanwhile, Raphael whispered.


“Gabriel, she had arrived. I could feel her presence.”


All of the sudden, the hangar door had been blasted open. Everyone in the hangar had shifted their focus toward the entrance. Hence, a little girl who wore a blood-splattered dress had appeared at the hangar entrance. Beside her, there was a lady who dressed in a French maid uniform with a blue collar on her neck, who carried two chained-up coffins.


The little girl glanced around the surroundings and yelled.


“I heard that! Unfortunately, as the Main Keeper… I won’t allow both of you to do such a thing.”
