A figure rose from the shadows and coalesced, quickly becoming Naboredisley, with ice-blue eyes and a composed expression that concealed madness.
Before this avatar of Farbauti, the Devil Monarch, could do anything, Angel had already turned to look at him. She nodded and said:
"It's time."
Naboredisley's appearance was within Angel's expectations, as it was part of their agreement. Just moments earlier, she had been repeatedly calling that abyssal Devil's name in her heart, conveying her wish to meet him to the Abyss and this true god through the corrupt nature inherent in everyone, even gods.
The Abyss, long since eroded by the Mother Tree of Desire, had not only a physical entrance in what had once been Australia, but also a mystical entrance leading into the depths of every person's heart. This allowed Devils to sense and exploit the corrupt desires within everyone, and was one source of power for Desire Apostles and even higher-sequence Beyonders of the Abyss pathway. Thus, calling Farbauti's honorific name in one's heart could be sensed by him, no matter where one was.
This was also one reason God Almighty had prioritized accommodating the Tenebrous World when fighting the Celestial Worthy. Some of this sefirah's symbolism and authorities overlapped with those held by the Omniscient and Almighty, greatly strengthening the power of the corrupt nature within.
Of course, if Angel did not want Farbauti to know, she could naturally block him through the Mirror World. Her level was no longer merely that of a single-pathway true god; she also possessed some of a sefirah's power. Although she could not count as two true gods when supporting the barrier, in a contest of level alone, Angel ranked just below Klein the Fool and Grisha the True Creator. Farbauti had absolutely no way of sensing anything
