The Day the Planet Was Reforged!

At the same time, those intercepting the White Colossal Titan suddenly saw the inverted projection of the stellar river beneath the massive hole in the World Wall ahead, as well as the increasingly distinct Seven Heavens.

Even more incredible was that the Gate of Heaven hanging open above expanded further. Smiling phantoms of souls rose from the misty holy pool filled with milky-white liquid. As light mist clung to them, pairs of wings made of light emerged behind them.

More and more angels gathered and took form from the radiance. The Angel Army, nearly a third of which had been destroyed earlier, was rapidly replenished.

Humans... angels... spirits serving the light...

So souls stripped of all emotion and memory were the raw materials used to create angels!

Then those Angel Armies before this...

Suddenly, Samael, looking up at the sky, seemed to realize something. His mind jolted, and blood rushed into his pupils.

The Iliad War!

Marduk had provoked humanity's thousand-year conflicts, setting different races against one another across the land. It had not merely been to invade Greece, but also to absorb spirit particles and gather souls, nourishing himself while preparing the materials needed to establish the Angel Army and breach the World Wall!

In truth, as one of the creators of Greek humanity, Samael had vaguely sensed that human souls were something very special. They were not entirely creations of the gods, but an outpouring of the planet's own spirituality upon the surface.

Humans were the beings closest to gods. Thus, through reproduction and succession, they could accelerate the decline of the Age of Gods and become the spirits of all things upon the earth.

Therefore, their souls and faith were precious resources that different divine pantheons sought to claim.
