Ch 41

As the heavy pressure descended on him, he could feel death.

At that time, he used clairvoyance and opened his wings, the result of stand magecraft.

The surrounding magecraft broke like a sheet of glass shattering.

Cael did not plan to meet Counterforce face to face nor did he believe in the chances of negotiating with it.

"Black hole"

A swirl of dark matter appeared in the center of everything destroying the matter surrounding the area.

At that same time, Cael used his Halo of resurrection to completely hide himself from everything, the past, present, and future.

However this is a mistake, the Counterforce went berserk as it couldn't sense Cael, it used full force. The Blackhole seized from existence, at the same time the surrounding pressure increased to the point that a huge crater formed to the point that Cael could see the depths of the physical world.

'Shit! I only made it worse'

Cael began to descend into the depths of the world to the point that he could feel the heat from the earth.

He believed in his instincts as he flapped his wings and fell toward the abyss of magma.

And then, he vanished from the face of the world.

An agent from the counter force observed the place and after making sure that nothing is remaining. The agent vanished.

At the same time, the world repaired itself and everything looked like it is back to normal.

####Chaldea Security Organization###

The scientists and Mages observing the world along with many departments in it are in chaos.

"What was that?"

"Reporting, A space-time quake is triggered in Iraq"

"Reporting, The quake lasted for a short while"

"Reporting, The counterforce is actively destroying everything in that area"

"Which magus went there recently?"

"Reporting, None. However, there have been signs of bounded field and a ritual taking place with highly dense magical energy "

"Reporting, the Counterforce restructured the world back to its normal state"

The director who is standing above and observing everything shouted

"Does this event affect the future of humanity?"

Everyone calculated and came to the same conclusion.

""""""Reporting, Future Uncertain"""""""

####In Unknown####

A person with a golden halo over his head, a pair of white wings on his back, white-haired adult man lying on the bed of colorful flowers.

Despite numerous phantasmal Beasts going around, nothing seems to sense him, and are just roaming.

"Ugh! I should have known, the counterforce is a bitch"

The man groaned and opened his eyes revealing the silver eyes observing the world itself. After seeing the new reality and taking his time to process it, he said

"Not bad, A manifestation of logic and demand of situation gave me the power of 'Access and Occlusion'. In a way, it lets me access locations, things, and places, it suits my personality and desire to reach the root. So, I succeeded in making a stand. Let's name it...'Wings of freedom' "

Cael's stand, the wings of freedom, manifested the power of his origin at a higher level.

His wings give him an ability called 'Access and Occlusion', it is the power to enter/lock something or some space without the hindrance of key/password/barrier.

"So, this is the reverse side of the world"

At that moment when he is falling into the abyss, he strongly believed to reach the reverse side when the wings manifested ejecting himself from the physical world.

Any ordinary human from the age of man would have died from exposure to the reverse side of the world due to dense magical energy.

However, Cael is in-human and is unique due to Ichor flowing in him. So, he's quite fine with everything.

The dense mana only serves to empower him.

He summoned his staff and transmuted his tattered clothes into Robe ofMaguss.

Looking at the purple flowers blooming around him and the 'sky' that is in a color he has never seen before. He enjoyed the sight before calling.

"Nixie, Efreet. Can you hear me?"

""Yes""

The two spirits manifested however, now they are extremely energetic.

"Okay, I was not expecting to meet you"

Efreet is the first to express "Thank you Cael! I never knew I could come to the reverse side of the world!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!"

Efreet hugged Cael madly with its fingers and kissed Cael thanking Him.

Nixie didn't go overboard but it silently hugged Cael's neck.

"This is weirding me out, Nixie, can you explain to me what's going on?"

Nixie answered "We are rogue spirits in the eyes of great mothers and great fathers. So, we are not allowed here. We can come here because of your contract with us"

'Great mothers and Great fathers? Aren't they God-class Fairies like Morgan le Fay? F*ck, I have to make Iron weapons just in case I encounter those f*ckers'

Great mothers and Great fathers are God-class Fairies that are superior to gods. They are dividend spirits of Gaia's (Will of the planet) soul.

So, encountering them is a death sentence.

While the lower-level fairies are also a threat, they can be killed with iron weapons. However, their casting abilities are still superior to Cael's.

"Okay, calm down guys, you can do whatever you want here. I have to see what I have to do from now on"

Efreet left while Nixie stayed with Cael.

Cael began walking in a direction where he could sense signs of life.

This is a situation he never thought he would encounter.

He decreased the concealment a bit allowing others to detect him with their biological senses. However, that's all they could do. He is still invisible in the past and future. So, no one could divine him.

As he roamed the purple orchids, he encountered phantasmal beasts that tried to attack him but they all couldn't touch him due to his reflection barrier.

After some time, the location changed as he walked upside down.

That's when he encountered the first life form.

A phantasmal beast with intelligence. It's a gigantic beast with rock-like layers over it.

"This is my first time meeting you stranger, are you a newly formed spirit?"

Cael at that time felt some compulsion to reply but he could resist it.

"Hmm? You seem to have strong resistance. So, you must be new"

Cael wanted to answer but, the problem is, the phantasmal species is speaking in Unified language. A language that uses the resonance of a soul to communicate, a powerful form of telepathy and hypnotism that allows one to communicate with living, non-living, and any species.

A master of unified language can speak with any creature in the world, read people's pasts, and completely and absolutely hypnotize others

A language lost in the age of gods.

"I apologize but I don't know Unified language. So, I don't know how to reply in your language"

Cael could understand but he can't reply due to the language barrier.

"We have a tricky spirit here, I can't even see your records. I'll teach you the 'spirit resonance' "

The phantasmal species began teaching the 'spirit resonance', a term for 'Unified language' in the reverse side of the world.

It became easy to learn for Cael with his connection with root.

The Unified language is a divine language for Cael, as it allows communication on a scale that is unbelievable. It also made his magecraft easier as he could cast most of his spells with this language.

The language itself is a mystery. So, it empowers any magecraft with mystery making it extremely powerful.

He also learned a lot about the phantasmal species residing here and the one that is teaching him. It's a species called 'Bahamut' , apparently these are known for their intelligence.

"It's time for me to depart, unique spirit. Head towards the lands of Oziran, you belong there" Bahamut left after that.

An image of Oziran and directions to go there popped up in his mind after Bahamut mentioned it.

"I sincerely thank you" Cael expressed his feelings seeing the departing figure of Bahamut. "A divine language is merely a way to communicate. What a wonderful land"

Cael traveled through a corrosive liquids marsh and stayed there after meeting the tribe living in that habitat. They are blob-like phantasmal species called 'Huves'.

They welcomed him and gave him a place to rest.

He's resting on his bed, and a liquid blob entered and slithered towards him.

"What do you want?" Cael asked, to which the blob turned into different shades and asked "What is the journey like?"

"Journey?"

"Yes, Once I complete my rite of passage, I will venture around the land. Many of the Huves I know left the tribe to go on adventures, I want to be like them" The blob said and it wrapped around Cael.

It glowed and many memories of different blobs leaving the tribe appeared in Cael's mind.

"I am always going somewhere but if you want stories of my adventure. I could tell few" Cael told a few of his adventures from the physical world.
