Death... and me

Rean spent the next few hours analyzing Abdiel's body. Now and then, his body would change and grow wings on his back. Because he was in the Space Bending Realm, three pairs of wings manifested. "The Angel Races are very easy to identify. The number of wings on their backs totally depends on their cultivation realm..."

Sesame confirmed Rean's words on the side. "Yes, that's basically how it works. Of course, the Angels can hide their wings if they want to. However, their pride as clean beings prevents most of them from doing so unless really necessary."

Sesame continued. "Archangels have six pairs of wings. Space-Time Realm Angels have five, Elemental Space Realm Angels have four, Space Bending Angels have three, like this guy here. Two pairs for Void Tempering Realm, and finally, one pair of wings for Transition Realm and below."

Rean continued to work on his skill while he asked Sesame about those traits. "Is it because you can only touch Space Power for the first time at the Transition Realm? Well, it will only happen when you get ready to enter the Void Tempering Realm, but it is still Transition Realm."

Sesame shook his head, though. "That I'm not sure. However, it is a valid theory. It's just that no one really cares about that since it makes no difference to anyone. Oh, by the way, you can also identify an Angel's Cultivation Realm through their wings, even if they are below the Transition Realm. They all have only one wing, but the development of their wings is different. A Foundation Establishment Angel's Wings is truly small, smaller than their shoulder blades, for example."

Rean smiled. "Well, I'm already at the Space Bending Realm, so Angels below this realm can't hide their cultivation from me anyway."

"That's true..." Sesame didn't care that much, either.

It was then that Rean noticed something. "Wait, does that mean that the highest cultivation realm, Divinity Realm, comes after the Space-Time Realm?"

Sesame looked at Rean with a puzzled expression. "That's correct. Why? Could it be you didn't know?"

Rean scratched the back of his head in response. "I've never thought too much into it since I'm just way too far from that."

Sesame smiled. "Hehe! That's just a time issue. With Master and the Soul Gem System on your side, your group will eventually reach the Divinity Realm, which is the same as the Elder Devils and Archangels in power. Of course, that is if you don't die on the way."

Rean nodded. "Let's hope it doesn't happen."

A few moments later, Roan arrived on Rean's side as well. "How is it? Is it working?"

Rean nodded once again. "I was just about to give it a try. By the way, call Luan here. I want him to see my Light Element with his eyes to make sure."

Luan didn't take long to arrive as well. "So, I just need to compare your Light Element wavelength with this Angel here, right?"

Rean nodded. "Yes. I can't use my own Light Element as normal since it is too pure. While Roan and I are in the form of Devils, our Dark Element isn't as pure as Roan's real abilities either. It's just that back then, we didn't need to be afraid of Elder Devils like we need to be aware of Archangels, so I didn't put that much effort into it until we had to meet Rui from the Light Devil Clan." Rean had met a lot of Devils before reaching the Light Devil Clan, after all.

Luan pondered a bit before asking. "It would be better if you allowed me to see a few more Angels then. Using just a single Angel as an example will make things complicated."

Sesame immediately volunteered. "I'll bring him around. It should be easy to find some Angel Patrols."

Roan nodded. "I'll go out with you to keep the Divine Sense Bending Skill active."

The group of three then left the Dimensional Realm and flew, with Sesame's help, around the region of the Canyon. At Sesame's speed, it didn't take long to find some of those groups, which Luan paid very close attention to while Roan kept them hidden. Around an hour later, Luan felt like he had an understanding of the Angels in this place. 'Alright, Father. This should be enough.'

Sesame then brought them away from the area, and they returned to the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. "Uncle Rean, give it a try."

Rean's body immediately shinned with Light Element as the structure started to change. Angels weren't that much different from humans, but they had different body traits other than their wings. Their Meridian's path, the way their bodies released Divine Energy, or, to be more specific, Heavenly Energy. Yes, Devilish Energy and Divine Energy were variants of the same Divine Origin Energy. Naturally, the Heavens had its own variant as well, which was Heavenly Energy.

After completing his change, he released his power and let Luan take a good look. "How is it?"

Luan nodded with a smile. "It's as good as your Devil Change, Uncle Rean. I can't tell whether you are a human or Angel at all. I don't think those guys outside will notice the difference, including the Archangels."

Rean sighed in relief. "Good, good." Right after, Rean shared his memories of the Angel Transformation with Roan through their Soul Connection.

Roan focused on those memories and immediately started to change his body. It's just that he had to try quite a few times before he got it right. "How is it now?"

Luan once again nodded. "It is not as perfect as Uncle Rean, but that is good. There is no such thing as two identical beings, so the small difference between you should be considered normal."

Roan was satisfied with that. "That's enough then. Now, Sesame, give me help to capture two angels."

"For what?" Sesame asked back.

"What else? We can't just appear in the Canyon with unknown identities. I'll take Angels to interrogate so that Rean and I can pretend to be them." Roan then looked at the sleeping Abdiel. "Hehe! I know exactly what we will do."
