"Ah..."
Despite being in the Physical World, Angel was close enough to hear that unwilling howl.
If you're dying, just die. Why scream so loudly? The whole world probably heard you... Angel frowned.
She was not surprised that she had so easily killed a King of Angels with the power of concealment. Although the Hidden Sage controlled a Uniqueness and, on the surface, seemed comparable to Angel, who had accommodated two Apocalypse characteristics and also controlled the Demoness Uniqueness, he lacked the power of a Sefirah on a deeper level. The Brood Hive's corruption only allowed him to attack others; it could not strengthen him.
Moreover, Angel and Klein had drawn up a detailed plan above the Gray Fog well in advance. With the help of the Evernight Goddess's concealment powers, the Hidden Sage had failed to foresee his own demise until their operation began. And Black Emperor Roselle had appeared in the Astral World in time to help the gods fend off the Outer Deities' attacks, allowing the God of Steam to pinpoint the unknown land. In effect, three gods had provided assistance in succession.
Perhaps being able to live as a Uniqueness was already the greatest "enhancement" he could receive, and the Mother Goddess of Depravity who helped him clearly hadn't given it her all... Angel muttered inwardly, her gaze following the points of light falling from the sky like meteors.
Those were Beyonder characteristics. Even though the Hidden Sage himself was an informational being, his characteristics were still entirely real, and they had separated from him the moment he fell.
The largest and most dazzling of them was an indifferent, emotionless eye without eyelashes, resembling those that had grown on Dragon Scholar Letitia's body when she transformed into a mythical creature. Accompanying it were numerous Beyonder characteristics
