Chapter 522: The Power of God

There is a significant difference between an angel and an archangel. The latter represents the highest authority of heaven and those who have gained God's approval. Each of these archangels is extremely powerful, and it would not be easy to subdue them...

Of course, this is something Yuki had to consider, but for the moment, he continued spying on the group from the shadows.

"Misfortune..."

Touma sighed in exhaustion. After convincing the magical duo, he spoke with his father about what was happening.

Instead of finding answers, he ended up more confused. It seemed his father did know about the existence of the magical world. Moreover, the reason behind his thorny path was also revealed...

It was because of Touma.

As a child who suffered from bad luck since infancy, he was nicknamed "the plague." All sorts of misfortunes occurred around him, affecting many people, leading to his infamy and causing everyone to avoid him.

This is also why he ended up in Academy City. Meanwhile, his father embarked on the path of the occult, seeking a way to break his bad luck curse. Over the years, he accumulated many magical antiques that, on their own, were not much. However, when placed in a specific order and with Yuki in this mortal world, they created an anomaly called Angel Fall.

Even so, Touya himself did not know about these effects and was also affected by the spell. Although his wife now had the appearance of Index, he couldn't find anything strange.

Therefore, although he activated the spell, he isn't the real culprit. Or rather...

(Is it the World's Will? Is she the culprit?)

Yuki suspected a lot about this World's Will. As he lived within it, it's possible that the World's Will heard his request to Aleister for an angel and is now granting his wish... (TN: Sugar mommy?)

(Is it pampering me to stay? Or is it something else...)

Sighing, Yuki decided not to think too much. The wills of worlds are like this, especially high-level ones. They do what they want, and for this reason, Champions rarely visit them because they don't want to get caught up in their nonsense...

It's best to take a look and then leave, not to get too involved.

------------

"So, is he or is he not the culprit?"

The next day, with her arms crossed, Kanzaki asked in a flat, cold tone.

The agreed time had ended, and it was time to get to work...

Touma looked at Tsuchimikado and Kanzaki simultaneously and sighed. He then recounted everything he discussed with his father.

"Nya~ Kami-yan has had it rough ~"

Imagine Breaker is both a blessing and a curse. Touma's childhood was tough, and Tsuchimikado couldn't help but sympathize...

"So, is he or is he not responsible?"

Kanzaki ignored everything else and got straight to the point...

"Yes and no. My father may have activated the ceremony, but he was also affected by the spell..."

"Hmm..."

The trio was at an impasse. However, in the end, Kanzaki decided to do the right thing...

"Let's let the Joker decide..."

"No, wait a moment..."

*Shiiiiii*

Touma didn't finish speaking when they felt the surroundings grow heavy. The laws began to change, and the sky suddenly darkened...

"It's begun! The angel?!"

Kanzaki felt her katana vibrate. The immense energy this superior being was emitting was enormous. Even Tsuchimikado was sweating from the intensity...

The trio quickly exited the house and, looking up, saw something incredible—a girl floating with what appeared to be crystallized black wings. On one of her wings, a man was being held tightly...

"Dad!?"

Touma was stupefied. He didn't even know when his father left the house, much less when this girl captured him. But one thing was certain—if he didn't save his father, he might die...

"Wait, don't rush..."

But as he was about to run, Kanzaki stopped him by the shoulder.

"Look carefully..."

In the sky, giant symbols appeared, covering the entire sky and changing its nature, also altering the Earth's rotation, causing a catastrophe...

But that wasn't the important part. The 'human' appearance of this angel was fading, and a blue halo appeared above its head. This angel was attacking Touya with force, but around Touya was a barrier that was protecting him, enduring the attacks...

"So what do you want me to do?! Watch as my father gets beaten?"

"That's exactly what you should do. Don't forget you're the weakest here."

"That's not entirely true!"

Clenching his right hand, Touma stared at Kanzaki, who responded with a cold snort.

Touma is just a human; he doesn't have the power to face angels.

"Kami-yan, calm down. Although your right hand is strong, don't forget it's not invincible..."

There were exceptions where Imagine Breaker didn't work, such as the Joker. Touma had forgotten this, but in front of the Clown, his hand was useless, and he was just an ordinary man. No one knew if this angel was also immune to the effects of his right hand. So if he rushed and died as a result, it wouldn't be worth it...

"Besides, there's no need nya~ for you to interfere. We just need to destroy this ceremony, and everything will end..."

That's right, there was a way out of all this, and it was right inside their house. So Touma instantly relaxed...

"Nya~ Nee-chi, leave this to us. Please save Touya-san. Once the angel disappears..."

"..."

Kanzaki hesitated for a few seconds. This was getting out of hand. They were supposed to wait for the Joker, but she also deliberately hid the information about Touma's father...

"Alright..."

But it was too late to regret. She had to see this through to the end. She couldn't allow this angel to keep manipulating the Earth's rotation. The longer this took, the more destruction it would cause...

"Alright, it's our turn, Kami-yan..."

"Yes!"

Tsuchimikado was confident in destroying this spell. This was also why he let it remain until now. Otherwise, someone like him, who prioritized balance, would never allow a catastrophe to happen...

"Hah?!"

Unfortunately, their mission was doomed to fail, as both Touma and Tsuchimikado were blocked by a crystal barrier that prevented them from re-entering the house...

"This ability..."

Tsuchimikado didn't need to be a genius to know who interfered with the ritual's destruction...

"Joker!"

-----------------

"Until the Archangel completely falls, I can't let you enter..."

From the shadows, Yuki clapped his hands, and his Mangekyo Sharingan spun as he turned his head to where Aiwass calmly watched Touya being mercilessly attacked by the Archangel...

"How are you? Can you continue?"

"I'm fine, this level is bearable..."

At his full power, it was uncertain who was stronger, but now the Archangel was incomplete, while Aiwass had the support of millions of brains from the Apocalyptic Network...

His strength was even more terrifying than the Archangel's, so the barrier he placed around Touya easily withstood the angel's attacks...

"Still, the deterioration of the Archangel is slower than expected..."

Since Aiwass said there was a way to speed up the process, and since nothing happened yesterday, Yuki decided to accelerate the process by sending a bait (Touya) to make the Archangel lose control. The latter was desperate to return to heaven, and what better way than to kill the summoner...

It was working. The Archangel was gradually losing his sanity, but it was still very slow. At this rate, it would take another 12 hours.

"There's nothing to worry about. Everything is going according to the natural flow..."

Looking in the direction Aiwass pointed, Yuki understood. Kanzaki had entered the game, and as a suspect of the distortion, the Archangel would surely change his target. He didn't disappoint, as Touya was more protected than a turtle in Aiwass's barrier, but Kanzaki was different. She was alone and also 'defenseless.'

*GUAAAAA*

So the angel changed his target and fell to the ground...

"I suppose you're right, I worried for nothing..."
