Death... and me

Chapter 2096 Alternative Route



Chapter 2096 Alternative Route

"Alright, I believe you." Roan thought it made sense and decided to end things there. He then waved his hand, and suddenly, Abdiel lost consciousness.

Sesame, who was by Roan's side, once again warned him. "Don't try to do anything about it. If there is really a connection between the Underworld and the Heavens in this place, you can be certain there is an Archangel here. Most likely, it is Raphael."

"Do you know him?" Roan asked back curiously.

Sesame then thought about the distant past when his home was still in the Realm of Gods. "Just for a short time. Raphael is one of the twelve main Archangels. Each one of them is older than even me. Raphael once came to where I lived with Gem during a visit to the Realm of Gods. We didn't talk much, though. Nonetheless, I felt like he was incredible. I was already at the Divinity Realm at that time, but I still felt like I wouldn't be his match."

Roan nodded. "Sure, he wouldn't be any weaker now. But now that I think about it, wouldn't it be possible to use this connection between you two to get us a passage to the Realm of Gods?"

"What?!" Sesame was taken aback. "Are you crazy?! Why would he help me with that? If anything, he will be extremely suspicious that I appeared in this place. First of all, I'm pretty sure the Angels know about the Swamp of No Return by now. Me coming out would be the same as saying that I got the Universe Fragment and have been running away until now."

Roan sighed. "That makes sense."

Sesame was happy that Roan understood. "Now that you know it, you should wait for Rean to finish his disguising skill and enter the telepor-"

Suddenly, Sesame stopped talking as an idea appeared in his mind. "Or perhaps... You should go to Heaven first..."

Immediately, everyone's attention was caught. "Go to Heavens?"

Sesame nodded. "If you think about it, it makes sense. The Temporal Path is heavily guarded, but this is here in the Underworld. I'm sure the entrance of Heavens is a lot easier to get past. Considering the chances of fooling the Angels to go back to the Realm of Gods, your best bet is to go through the Heavens instead of going from the Underworld."

Rean couldn't help but ask. "Alright, I can see where you are coming from. Perhaps even with my disguising skill, I will be found out if we approach the Temporal Path in the Underworld. But that is harder to happen in the Heavens. That said, how exactly do you expect us to go there? If you are thinking about using this connection in the Sparse Black Grass Land, does that mean you know where it is and how to use it?"

Sesame shook his head. "I don't know where it is, but I know how to use it. This is not the first time I heard about an alternative connection between the Three Realms. It's just that these alternative connections are very rare and only appear for a limited period of time. You never know where it will appear again, nor how long it will stay open. Nonetheless, they should work pretty much the same way as the Temporal Path."

"Simply put, we can enter it and use the Sptial Tunnel to go to Heavens. Is that correct?" Roan asked back.

Sesame nodded. "Think about it. Where do you think that the highest defenses are placed? At the Temporal Path Entrance or in this connection? It doesn't matter how I see it. You definitely have a higher chance of passing through unnoticed using this connection here than the Temporal Path Entrance. No doubt the Temporal Path has more than a single Archangel, but this one most likely has only Raphael. Perhaps it's not even Raphael, but an Archangel who isn't part of the Twelve Main Archangels, which is even better."

Rean and Roan looked at each other before looking at everyone else. "If our objective is still to reach the Realm of Gods, it does seem like the best option."

Sesame also added another piece of information. "That's not all. The reason the defenses here are lower is also due to the fact that the Alternative Connections can't handle anywhere near the same capacity that the Temporal Path can. As I said, they are temporary connections. They are unstable and very small. Who knows, it might simply disappear in the next second. Although once they appear, they usually stay open for quite a few hundred years."

"Okay, you convinced us," the twins' group had already made up their minds. "Do you know how we can find this connection?"

Sesame then looked at Rean. "You have a ridiculous high sensitivity to Light Element, don't you? Since this Alternative Passage is connected to the Heavens, I can guarantee that the Light Element Concentration at its entrance is very high. The same could be said about the other side in the Heavens. You would find a lot of Dark Element at its entrance. Do you think you can feel the flow of Light Element once we get near the Canyon?"

Rean nodded. "Should be possible. Of course, that is if they aren't using some formation to conceal the Alternative Connection's existence."

Sesame shook his head. "They are filling several regions of the Underworld with Light Element. However, the Sparse Black Grass Land is very far away from the Temporal Path, so it is very hard to channel the Light Element all the way here. That said, chances are that the Light Element filling this region is being sourced by this entrance. Of course, the Devils don't know that and probably think the Light Element is coming through the same methods as the other regions."

"That makes things easier, then." Rean was already eager to try. "As soon as I finish devising an Angel Body Change method, you and I can go out and head to the Canyon."
