Established Pinnacle: The Enigma



"...Fine. I'll end it swiftly then." Enigma kept the smile on his face, his gaze still aligned with that of the Transcendental Angel of Sacred Storms and the Transcendental Angel of Fate Denial. It was about time he brought a Divine Calamity upon them as punishment.

It was time for their Ragnarok to ensure.

"Peri–"

"Wait, senior Enigma, please stop!!" Just when he was about to utter out the command of the Divine Calamity, an anxious cry crossed through countless distance, and disrupted his words.

...!!!

And an instance later, a golden white flash broke through space, and appeared right before him at terrifying speed. Speed that the Transcendental Angels could barely follow.

"Hm? Oh, it's little Su." Enigma froze as he finally realized who it was that was bold enough to stop him. Not like it was hard to stop him, but he was really curious who it was.

"Yeah, it's me. Senior, can you please spare these angels?" Su Han floated before Enigma, as he carefully regulated his breathe. He wasn't tired, no, he was just nervous.

His golden hair was messy as usual, but it still complimented his beastly handsome appearance. And the golden fur glowed with Reiki around his body, giving him a typical monkey's appearance, adding more to his charm.

And the white ancient chinese robes held his figure elegantly. Maddening waves of power erupted out of him, inclining closer and closer towards the Elder God realm. And it was still climbing up.

"You..." The angels paused from their attacks, as they looked up at Su Han floating before Enigma. At the infamous Wargod prodigy, standing against the Ultimate Ragnarok.

But their focus, was taken by the pure holy power oozing out of Su Han's being, that formed illusory wings on his back. Six pairs of wings, that almost covered his whole appearance.

lightsΝοvel Greater Outer Angels had twelve wings on them. A pair on top, that covered their face, an extra pair on the same area rising up to the heavens, another pair aligned on the sides like outstretched arms, an extra pair at the same area but covering their waist instead, another pair facing down to spite the earth, an extra pair at the bottom, covering their legs.

A total of six pairs, twelve wings.

And the current Su Han, like the Transcendental Angels, also had twelve wings on him, albeit illusory. But unlike them, there was more luster on his illusory wings than theirs. And their wings were all outstretched, creating a flower of feathers behind them.

"An... An Elder Angel?" The Transcendental Angel of Sacred Storms uttered out in shock, as the dying hope within her, was slowly reignited.

"Let's... Let's not get our hopes up." The Transcendental Angel of Righteous Winds added, his heart not affected.

He was hopeful too, but not so hopeful.

"Spare them? Why?" Enigma was confused, but that was all. He was not against stopping, but... that was not how Ragnarok operated.

"Actually. I'm acquainted with a Cosmic Angel, who once spared my god daughter, Xue'er. You know her right, that cute bubbly little girl of mine. So, I owe her a favor, and thought I'd repay it like this. Plus, I'm also an angel too. So... please?" Su Han responded, scratching his head awkwardly.

Honestly, he didn't want to fight against Enigma. He even came off as a junior, and called him senior. Not that he'd lose, which he would, but he just looked up at Enigma in general.

Plus, his hands were a gift from him too.

"Oh, is that so? Sure. I don't see why not." Enigma immediately nodded his head without much thought after hearing that reason. What was there to think about? No, wait, actually, there was!!

"Huh...? He... He agreed?" The Transcendental Angel of Sacred Storms was stupefied. She looked up with her blank expression.

Even the Transcendental Angel of Righteous Winds was also in disbelief. Every other Transcendental Angel, and lower ranked angel, were stupefied at the moment. historical

'If it was that easy to make him stop, why did we even fight then? What were we struggling for? To make fools of ourselves?!'

'What... What is the meaning of this?! All those angels died for nothing?! Is that what they are trying to say?!'

'Are our lives such irregardless tools to them? Do we die, just because they felt like it?! Is that it?!'

'Why... did it even come to this? Why? How?'

'So Gärd... will perish for nothing?' lights

The angel's thoughts went haywire, as some broke down, some gave up, and some looked up in anger. Animated expressions painted their faces, but the duo above, acted indifferent.

"Really? You will really not kill them? For me?" Su Han's face bloomed with joy, as he inquired for verification. His eyes were already glittering.

"Yeah, I can. I mean, why not? Just start calling me big brother from now on. Just like how you call Allen your aniki." Enigma nodded to reassure him, and took this opportunity to get close with his brother of a different lifetime.

"Oh, okay. You should have asked without trading, I already considered you a small aniki, but okay. I'll start calling you big brother from now on, is that okay with you?"

'Small aniki..? That sounds adorable, but hella disrespectful. I'll let that slide though.' He casually thought to himself, "Hmm... Nah, on second thoughts, call me elder brother instead. Just elder brother is fine." Follow current s on ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

"Okay, if you say so, elder brother." Su Han nodded with a bright smile, not finding it hard to transition between the terms. He already respected Enigma from long ago, and the guy, as well as Allen, truly treated him kindly.

He then turned back to angels. "Everyone, I am sorry I came late. But it is okay now, everything is okay. The souls of your brethren are still here, and thus they can reincarnate. My elder brother here didn't destroy them at the least."

He said out words of reassurance, calming down many angels, but their emotions were still greatly disturbed. But as they were saved, they thanked their Lord for that.

"As for that Angel, he will be okay. Just let him rest for a while." He added, waving his hand to transfer bundles of Faith Essence towards Gärd. "You've done your very best, now rest easy. Everything will be okay for now." He carefully whispered.

"...."

The angels below remained silent, as the waves of events that took place were not as expected. Instantly transitioning from hopelessness to salvation was too much even for them. Especially so, if the one to save them, was an infamous Wargod not related to their lineage.

"...."

The Transcendental Angels were also left in stupor. And though they had a much better grasp over their emotions than those below, they were still affected to some extent.

They were frozen.

"Seems like they are still in shock." Enigma said, as he floated besides Su Han, looking down upon the many angels. Especially so, at the Transcendental Angels.

The concentration of Holy power was thick around them. So thick, they cloaked the soroundings in a layer of golden hue. He even doubted if a Transcendental evil creature could survive under such purity for a while.

But even then, the rhivk Holy power was in great disarray at this moment. So much so that, it would deal more damage, than good.

"Yes. But it matters not. I've done my best, and did what I had to do." Su Han responded, a sigh of sympathy escaping his lips as he also gazed down upon them.

He knew why they were like this. They lost a lot of their loved ones, and fought a battle that mocked their capabilities to survive. Basically, their pride was trampled on, and their trust was destroyed.

Hence they had every right to be in shock.

"What you had to do?" Enigma queried.

"Yeah. I owe one of the Cosmic Angels here a couple of labors to do. One of them was to kill the Mountain God, a Minor God. And I've pretty much done that. While the second was to stop the Pool of Reincarnation's coming Ragnarok. Well, you, to be precise." He responded casually.

Enigma nodded lightly. Strange, but not overally strange. In the Prime Era, labors and trials were used as a form of payment to debts mortals owed to the gods. Hell, even other gods did so, for their fellow peers.

It was a well recognized method to solve problems, without resulting in disgrace for both parties. Unfortunately, most of the times, people were taken advantage of, because of this system. Especially the mortals.

The great hero, Hercules, was one such example. And if not careful, Su Han might just be another example of such tragedy.

But Enigma thought nothing much of that. He could deal with the Cosmic Angel, and demand they take back their words, but why would he? Su Han didn't seem to mind the labors that much, and could probably take care of himself.

Plus, he had nothing against Heaven itself.

His appearance here, was required by The Plot of Existence to usher itself forward. And he had no strength to go against it, so he rode with it.
