The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 1187: Changes of the Angel Race

Evelyn and Calidora came here with many expectations inside their heads.

A lot of what's in their heads was quite the bad news.

Considering that the Second Breath happened recently—most of their expectations revolved around that phenomenon. It might be mutated animal hordes, that were spotted or even very powerful mutated animals appearing suddenly.

But the news turned out to be way out of their expectations.

None of their expectations even come close to what the news really was.

As Ken said those words, the entire room fell into a grave silence.

Sofas, chairs, and tables stood as silent witnesses to the unfolding moment as the room's air turned jarringly tense. Evelyn and Calidora were stunned in disbelief, both unable to properly process the words just spoken.

Only the hum of the air conditioners pierced the choking silence.

A cold, mechanical reminder of the harsh reality settling over them like a suffocating shroud.

Evelyn turned her gaze towards Linthia, asking if Ken was playing around or not.

But from Linthia's expression, it seemed like the words were the truth.

Recovering from the sudden shock—Evelyn turned her attention back to Ken.

"When did President Sebrof knew of this news?"

"Not that long, recently..."

"If by recently you mean right before I step into this room, then he is way too late"

Considering the gravity of the situation, the news came way too late.

Even the slowest ninth-rank realm could cross the continent in a couple of weeks because of the need to stop several times along the way. If the Angels were a big problem then crossing the continent would be very easy for them.

Not to mention that like in the holy books, they should have wings.

Having wings is way different than flying with mana.

It wouldn't even come as a surprise if the Angels didn't need to stop at all because of this.

"We tried making contact as soon as possible—but with the situation in our territory, we are gravely short in people who could deliver the message" Ken quickly replied—expressing the problem Humanity was facing right now. "I hope Your Majesty could understand..."

Upon hearing this, Evelyn massaged her throbbing forehead.

Since the Second Breath affected everything—then the Great Barricade would be useless in stopping the changes that were happening. Mutated animals within the Great Barricade, will still evolve and cause ruckus in their territory.

Moreover, considering the size of the Great Barricade, some parts must've been damaged.

If not damaged, there would be parts that were utterly destroyed.

Other mutated animals outside could be pouring inside for all she knows.

Just like what Ken said, Humanity must've been extremely overwhelmed by the change.

"I am able to deliver this message thanks to the convoy sent to deliver the supplies, Captain Gelmar was one of them, so reaching them is easier" Ken continued, feeling that Evelyn was still displeased by this.

Despite her absence, Evelyn knew what was happening in the city.

She had people who regularly updated her.

One that went into play in this—was the creation of a teleportation formation, as close to the Great Barricade as possible. It would be the meeting point for the Clarentium Empire's forces and the Human forces.

Using that teleportation formation, delivering the supply is way easier.

Gelmar or Dindora were the ones who oversaw this operation.

"Regardless of that, the Angels, should've all been eradicated. A devastating amount of them were eradicated, by the Ancient Humans while the rest were taken down bit by bit until there were no more of them. Both Angels and Demons are considered to be the number one threat by the Ancient Humans—and they were hit the hardest, because of that" Calidora expressed her confusion.

Just like that, the meeting concluded with a heaviness in the air.

Ken excused himself—and was escorted by a couple of city guards to his temporary abode—leaving Evelyn, Calidora, and Linthia alone inside the room. All three of them were silent, their heads were filled with lingering thoughts.

"What do you know about the Angel race, Calidora?" Evelyn finally spoke.

Despite their differences, this matter needs them to cooperate.

Upon hearing this, Calidora leaned back on the sofa still in disbelief, "I am very young, Evelyn—I don't know much about the Angel race—because they were eradicated, at the early stage of the Era of Might. I have not even seen a real Angel before—but I do know that they are the second superpower of the Supernaturals besides the Demons"

"If they are really as powerful as the Demons in the past, then they are no joke" She added.

Out of the Supernatural races, the Demons are deadly back in the day.

Due to their partial immortality, in battle—they have the most successful fights, among all of the Supernatural races against the Ancient Humans. Calidora was told, that only the Angels, could come close to the Demons in the wars against Ancient Humans.

Not to diminish the other races, but to win against the Ancient Humans needed sacrifices.

And both the Demons and Angels have numbers to spare, in a slaughterhouse of a battle.

Other races simply couldn't copy both of their fighting styles.

But then—Calidora's frown deepened, as she continued, "My father also said that the Angels were the only ones who wanted peace, and they actively helped the Supernatural races fend for themselves against the Ancient Humans because the Supernaturals are losing"

"It's weird for them to be killing kingdoms left and right" She added.

Had she not known what Ken was describing was the Angel race, then she would've thought that it was anything, other than the Angel race. Angels don't attack others like maniacs, they are peaceful and help those in need.

So to think that Ken stated that they were destroying kingdoms was surely a delirious lie. .net

However, that doesn't seem to be the case.

"Regardless of what they were like in the past, the fact stands that they were hostile—even more hostile than anyone around it seems as diplomatic approach didn't work on them. You saw how Ken reacted when he said that," Evelyn replied, there's no need to lament the past.

Upon hearing this, Calidora suddenly stood up, "I'm going back to the castle,"

"I'm going to ask my Mother about this, see if she could provide some insight" She added.

Evelyn nodded her head before Calidora left the room, closing the door behind her.

It was now Evelyn and Linthia left inside the room.

Since the others were still away, she decided to stay here, and thought about the next move, at least—until the others were back. 'He said that the Angels suddenly shifted their attention to our continent, and it happened in a union. Something must've attracted them,'

An entire race shifting their attention like that is not normal.

Clearly, there was something so irresistible that made the Angels head here instantly.

'If that is the case, there is only one thing that might attract them—it is the Fifthborn's death, that is the only big thing that could evoke this kind of reaction' Evelyn nodded, she was quite sure that this was caused by the Fifthborn's death.

"Is Rex their target? But why? Is it because he killed an Executor?" Evelyn mused.

But then, as she was contemplating, Linthia positioned herself to face Evelyn.

"Imperial Empress..." She uttered lightly.

Upon hearing this, Evelyn turned to look and Linthia in question, "What is it, Linthia?"

"I know, that this was not the time to ask for a favor, but I have a favor..." She said meekly—it was clear that she was hesitant to say this. "I had organized a party to collect the remains of the fallen people and armor scattered on the battlefield, but they haven't come back"

"Someone knows what happened, but he was injured..." Linthia added, fidgeting her fingers.

Despite the situation, Evelyn couldn't refuse Linthia's plea like this.

She giggled lightly, "Lead the way. You are one of the Captains, speak to me comfortably"

Not expecting Evelyn to accept her favor that fast—considering the bad news that struck her earlier, Linthia's smile blossomed before she nodded excitedly, "I'm really grateful for your aid Imperial Empress, I promise I'll work even harder in the future"

Both of them then stood up, heading to the door to meet with this injured person.
