Rowan was able to collect his Monster bike from the engineers and whistled in appreciation at what they had achieved.

It was both sleek yet carried a rugged quality, the tires were made from an Incarnation State beast and much of its components were also made from beast’s parts, creating a fearsome machine of bone and iron. A true Monster bike.

They all gave him various stats about its performance that Rowan absently listened to before zooming off, but not before collecting the blueprints for its design, he would be experimenting more with these designs with his Forging ability.

It was a simple thing for Suriel to return to the sky and show the world to him once more. The performance of this new Monster bike did not disappoint him, as he was moving at 750 mph (ca. 1,207 km

/h) with this new and upgraded monster bike, and he could enjoy the experience better, even as his mind was focused on the hunt. Benefits of having multiple consciousnesses!

He drove for an hour at that speed, as he was going through all the events that occurred, musing, at this time he was upgrading his Berserker Aspect, but now he was driving on his monster bike and eating the miles.

The ripple that had been growing in his mind suddenly exploded and sank into his flesh, and suddenly, he felt a growing heat inside his body, so unexpected and violent he nearly screamed, he stopped the bike and knelt on the floor.

The pressure kept increasing until he could not help himself, and he screamed a soundless cry at the skies. From his open mouth, six snake heads emerged, and they opened their mouths as well and cried out, and a gray ripple spread out, and as it extended from their mouth , the ripple went faster until it encircled the entire planet.

Suriel was above the planet, so he could see clearly that the gray ripple flowed past all the continents of the planet and after reaching the end of it, they began returning.

It happened in less than ten seconds, and everything returned to the snakes inside Rowan’s mouth, and they vanished and Rowan felt the pressure ease off from his body.

What was that?

It did not take long to hear the world below him beginning to groan as a loud sound erupted like countless trumpets blown at once. The skies changed their colors and went red like blood, and all around the planet people began to die.

The ripple that entered Rowan’s body reached his pillar of consciousness once more; countless images entered his mind, he saw men, women, and children suddenly stiffening before collapsing into ash.

He saw the two-second circle Dominators, the woman was holding the hands of the man, and she was weeping, all around her the remaining mercenaries were already ash, and the man was slowly turning into ash, he mouthed, “I love you.”

Countless images and scenes entered his mind, and Rowan knew his bloodline had collected across time what it had devoured. Every one he had killed when he began plundering the Continent was now facing extinction.

The planet was lucky, and although this time, he did not kill the planet, he had injured its life force. The bloody skies were a testament to what had occurred as it bled its lifeblood and Rowan collected.

He sighed. There were no right choices in this world, he could only choose the least of the wrong ones.

He had lost much with the battle and traveling through time, but he had gained so much more because Rowan was not the biggest beneficiary of his body’s ability to sync itself with his mind, it was the fact that he also gained back all the energy he had collected and the soul points.

Indeed, at this time, his Ouroboros Serpent Origin Engine was completed and the massive purple moon inside his Palace of Ice meant one thing — 865,450 Soul points. The Angels of Char now kneeling in front of his Palace were at this moment 7,455, and he had three prospective Archangels from the lot, again reaffirming his luck for obtaining Suriel among a group of a hundred Angels of Char.

His promise and his path to the second circle was now open, and Rowan intended to push ahead to the maximum limit he could reach. He was tired of being among the weakest of Empyrean.

He called his Ouroboros Serpent back to him, in a future that never happened, they had plundered this world, and now he needed them to return, and activate his Legendary Bloodline Ability.

With these resources his revenge against Dorian was a foregone conclusion, but there was another, bigger menace waiting for him deep inside the planet.

But for every danger, there was also opportunity. Jarkarr was not his first choice to use when he wanted to activate his Legendary Ability, but the unique situation of this planet made it a perfect site for him.

He could rise here, and collect so many benefits from under the gaze of the gods of Trion before they became aware of his presence.

But first before he dealt with that problem, he needed to evolve. He began moving once more with his Monster bike.

In ten minutes time he would be a thousand miles away from the convoy or anyone else, and there he would evolve his two Omnipotent bloodlines.

He reached a small mountain that was shaped like a finger, the top of the mountain was about 2,000 feet (0.61 kilometers) wide and Rowan felt it should be suitable enough for his Ascension.

The Ouroboros Serpents would be back in an hour, more than enough time for him to ready his thoughts for his Ascension and dispose of some inconvenient witnesses.

Rowan entered into his Mental Space, and saw all the kneeling Angels of Char, seeing the three prospective Archangels he nodded to himself, they would be suitable for now.

Returning from his Mental Space, he placed the Monster bike into his Spatial Bracelet and carried himself using Telekinesis to the top of the mountain by just creating two small pads under his feet.

At the top of the mountain he stopped and stared at his Surroundings before summoning his Throne, and sitting down.

He was readying for his Ascension and the world seemed to be holding its breath. He opened his right hand and three closed eyes appeared above it and slowly began to rotate.

Connecting to the Purple Moon inside his Throne, he shot out purple beams out of his eyes and into the three Dormant eyes, and in a while they were completely refined and the eyes were opened. 𝙣𝙫.𝒈

The Lady of Shadow had stood beside his Throne, and she gestured for the Three Angels of Char that were selected, and they appeared before his Throne from inside his Mental Space.

Angels do not have names, while Archangels had only designations, he mentally ran through what he should use, and made a decision. As his first summoned Archangels, they were in a class all on their own, and he decided to call all Archangels in their collective as Archons, and he gave them the designation Arch–1, Arch–2, and Arch–3.

The Archangels had their first sets of eyes on their right arm, and as the eyes zipped across to implant themselves on the arms of the Three Angels of Char, they turned into mini–suns as the change began to happen.

The black flakes over their bodies sloughed off, and three sets of platinum wings erupted from their bodies.

In a short while three Angels in platinum armor knelt before his throne, the Runes on their armor were simpler than the ones on Suriel, and they were all slender with distinctive feminine features.

They conjured swords of flames and touched their forehead to the ground, Rowan nodded at them, “Rise, you know your orders. Go forth with haste and see it done.”

The trio answered back at the same time, their feminine voices pleasing to the ears like soft chimes of a golden bell, “By your will Creator.”

Their wings flared out, and they shot towards the bloody clouds where they separated in three directions and zoomed off.

Their destinations, the three underground cities.
