He could perceive the space all around him. His mind was crystal clear and his memory was perfect. A huge vitality flowed in his body every second and many more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'My powers…finally!' Varian fist-pumped the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The air exploded and the shockwave reached every corner of the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you very much.\" Varian patted the wings and smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Eh~ It's not much, really.\" The wings twisted, as if embarrassed before saying. \"B-But it took a bit longer than I thought.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian's hand froze at those words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He recalled the 'time' the altar was off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the mortal him, it was a blink of an eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for the current him…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'It's a significant time.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian's brows furrowed and an ominous premonition spread in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I didn't fuck up anything…right?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had to go up to be certain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he was about to bid farewell to the wings, he caught the glimpse of the third altar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The white altar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The altar which was engraved with a pair of wings and a halo overseeing the entire solar system.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian's mind spun and he quickly asked the pair of wings. \"Hey, what does this do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…It?\" The wings' voice trailed off before it said in an embarrassed tone. \"I-It's supposed to be my home.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's where Heaven's Will resides?\" Varian raised a brow in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Heaven's Will' was a daily term for an average citizen across the federation. Like all things in popular culture, Heaven's Will also had a collective belief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was an all-seeing, all-powerful, and all-knowing entity. It was something that resembled Heaven from old earth's myths and legends. Thus, it had no physical form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, when he found out that Heaven's Will might actually be residing in an altar, Varian's worldview flipped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well, you can say so.\" The wings moved up and down as if nodding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian took a deep breath and pushed down all his doubts for a later time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't know the situation above. It was better to go up as soon as possible. But there was one thing he had to ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can you remove the restriction on ghost ship?\" Varian requested as he pointed to his finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Any other person wouldn't be able to find anything but the pair of wings wasn't any other person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It quickly exclaimed. \"So this is where the suppression was going towards.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh?\" Varian let out a confused sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Scion, the Heaven's Will was suppressing something on you. I was confused since I couldn't find anything from a basic glance and I didn't want to intrude your privacy. So…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah.\" Varian nodded before furrowing his brows. \"So, can you remove the suppression? I really need Boo back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well…\" The wings stayed still, falling silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian was in a hurry and wanted to ask the wings to hurry up. But what if something went wrong if he did things in a hurry?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haa! Haa!\" Varian took deep breaths and calmed himself. But he couldn't stop his heart from pounding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With each passing second, it felt like hours were passing by.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time. Time. Time!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'It's almost 3.5 seconds already!' Varian nearly screamed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, he couldn't help saying. \"H-Hurry up…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah!\" The wings suddenly flapped, as if coming out of a daze. With a flap, the wings stood in front of his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can do the same as I did for the previous altar. I can shut it down for a moment and then, change the targets of the effect.\" It explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian's eyes narrowed. ꜰʀᴇᴇwᴇʙɴovᴇʟ.coᴍ\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, the sealing altar was restricting levels in the prince's hall to level 7 and sealing off all levels in prison. Now, the target of those restrictions was only the prince's hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the same thing happened again, then only Boo would be free of suppression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian was about to nod when his brows suddenly jumped. \"Ye-Wait, you will shut it down for a moment? You will shut down what?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Heaven's Will, obviously?\" The wings flapped around him as if confused. \"I mean, I don't really have much authority over Heaven's Will, but this is a small tinkering. I can do it. But only if I can shut it down.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian rubbed his forehead and asked. \"That 'moment', will it be the same duration as the last time?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well~ That's my best time.\" The wings said and looking at Varian's serious face, it felt like it did something bad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"S-Sorry…I-I don't really have authority here. I-I'm just an abandoned thing.\" The wings drooped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't worry about it.\" Varian's patted it lightly and the wings cheered up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wings said in a cheerful tone. \"Then I will—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't.\" Varian cut it off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But why? Don't you want your ship?\" It asked, tilting to the left in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's too risky.\" Varian sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heaven's Will was too important.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every day, lots of wars were fought in the federation. Even at this moment, there would be tens of thousands of individuals fighting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like every other level, level 7s, level 8s, and level 9s would also be fighting at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason humanity was able to even out abyssals was not just their own strength but also the suppression of abyssals under Heaven's will.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure, the suppression was only a small part of a high level abyssal's power. But at this level, even just a bit of extra strength had huge implications.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, what would happen if Heaven's Will suddenly disappears?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Low awakeners wouldn't even notice it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mid awakeners would notice it, but wouldn't be able to respond.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then coming to high awakeners…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Level 7s would notice it. The level 7 abyssals, now free of heaven's will, would be able to land at least one blow in that small gap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Level 8s would be able to carry at least six hits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Level 9s…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That small gap would be decisive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If a human level 9 and abyssal level 9 were fighting evenly, that 'moment' without Heaven's Will would create an opportunity for the level 9 abyssal to finish off the human.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, if Varian rashly agreed, then he might cause the deaths of level 9s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Seriously, you don't want it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's really a tough decision. But no.\" Varian's shoulders sagged and he caressed the wings and smiled. \"Thank you for everything. I'll visit you in the future after I clear up my mess, okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian turned around and kicked the ground, about to run.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wings that remained silent until then suddenly shouted. \"I-I'll try to fix it without turning the altar off. It'll take more time, but I'll give my best. So, please come and visit. Don't forget, okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a pleading in those words that he couldn't ignore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, Varian, who was about to leave, paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wings…it seemed to have misunderstood something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Scion is leaving because he thinks I'm useless.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I can't help Scion. So, he's leaving to solve the problem by himself.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian sighed inwardly. Looking after a child was so a burden. But when the child was so earnest, it'd be a burden many would be willing to shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wings floated at his eye level and were quivering in anticipation and fear of rejection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian smiled brightly. \"Do your best. Whether you succeed or not, I'll visit you again. Then, I'll introduce you to a cute ghost, okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Promise?\" One of the wings stretched forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha. Where did you learn this?\" Varian laughed and stretched a finger forward, locking it with the wing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ehehehe.\" The wing laughed like a child seeing their birthday present and pushed Varian lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't delay any longer. I'll do my best.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian nodded and his body flashed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if he never appeared, the room turned vacant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wings, cheerful until then drooped abruptly. \"…Lonely again…wooo~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it pulled itself together and flapped to the altar. It sat on the altar and connected to the 'Heaven's Will'.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A bright flashed in the room and the wings quivered in pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aghhh! It hurts!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As it told before, it didn't have much authority. The most it could do was little changes here and there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it had to do it without the security systems noticing it or it'd be punished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's why it turned off the altars before making changes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zzzz!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A lightning bolt came out materialized in the room and stuck down the wings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Waaa!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wings shook violently as it started crying out in pain. But it stubbornly clung to the altar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just a bit…I can endure a bit more.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since its birth, it was all by itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zzzz!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kuh…I can still go on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first person it talked to was Scion himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zzz!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aghhh! I have to do it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, it only had respect and reverence. But with his words and gestures, the Scion made it feel his kindness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He treated it like a child…which it was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A child who was abandoned by its parents was showered in kindness by someone it met for the first time…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zzz!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I…I'll see you again, Scion.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They promised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its first promise!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It'd uphold it at any cost!\u003C\u002Fp>",1573,"2026-06-06T07:58:26.198Z",1,"novelbin.me","c9c404da9af86694d6bda41794cfd6d9f2cb3961e2fe845bc71d324258d10abe","divine-path-system-chapter-643","divine-path-system-chapter-641",1773,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdivine-path-system-cover.jpg"]
