Grim Reaper in the Apocalypse: Reaping Immortals

"What's happening to our City?" Ninth asked, feeling an ominous hunch in her heart. If the black dragon's words were indeed true, then that meant that the Church of Genesis had blown up into pieces.

This would send the entire City into an uproar, creating chaos and bloodshed unlike anything they had ever seen before.

Peace was only maintained inside the City because they believed that the Genesis God was protecting them. And if the church, which was the symbol of the God himself, was destroyed, then that sense of security within the citizens would also be destroyed.

The fact that people could actually die now only made things a lot worse. Surely, there would be some kind of accidents that would happen as they rioted towards the church.

Someone would eventually end up dead, with the Saviors unable to cover it up before the general public found out that immortality was gone. It would only end up with the citizens freaking out even more as they realize they could truly die without a second chance of reviving.

Ninth could only shudder at the thought.

"We have to get back now," she said to Atlan and the rest of her team.

Everyone agreed with her words. After all, now that the mission had failed, they had no other reason to be in this Remedium. They had to go back to the real world and try to help with the aftermath of the explosion.

Ninth and the other Specialist Saviors all pushed themselves to stand up. The portal to the real world was still a couple of ways back from where they came from, which meant that they had to walk quite a long distance before they could leave.

Their bodies were still hurting, but they ignored it and kept going.

However, just before they were about to completely leave, Atlan stopped them in their tracks.

"There's no need to go that far. I can take us back to the real world," he said to them.

Atlan then unfurled the Angel Wings in his back. Somehow, the power emanating from his Angel Wings had increased tremendously, as if they were the real thing!

The truth was that in Atlan's transition to become somewhat of a God, he was able to transform all of his mutations into their full potential. This included the Angel Wings, which had now become the same as what the Angels had originally used.

This meant that he could travel anywhere he wanted in a matter of an instant. Even the different dimensions were of no trouble to him.

If he wanted to, he could even make his Angel Wings invisible to the naked eye, just like how Angels were completely invisible to humans.

However, Atlan chose not to hide it this time.

Ninth and the rest of the team looked at the Angel Wings in his back and felt that he truly could do as he said. After all, traveling through the different dimensions was the least impressive thing they had seen the Star Porter do.

"Just stand near me and let the Angel power overcome your bodies," Atlan said.

Ninth and the others huddled closer to Atlan, with the two plushie dragons landing on Atlan's shoulders.

Within just a second, a bright white light suddenly came from above them and shone down onto their feet.

Ninth and the others felt a warm sensation flood their entire senses, as if they were completely immersed in a warm temperature bath.

They closed their eyes and let the Angel Power envelop them.

And after a few seconds, the light died down. When they looked around their surroundings, they were surprised to see nothing but blackness everywhere they looked.

At first, they thought that they were still back in the Remedium, where everything was in a negative color.

But as they looked at the sky, they saw its normal blue luster, meaning that they were truly back in the real Genesis City.

The blackness they were currently seeing was the charred remains of the Genesis Church. They were standing in the very middle of the explosion's aftermath.

"How horrible…" Ninth commented. They couldn't believe that the Church they grew up in had been destroyed just like this. They still remember when they went to mass every week and prayed to become Saviors of great renown.

As they became Saviors, they visited the Church less and less because of their busy schedules.

But now, when they finally returned to the church's embrace, they found nothing but a burned ruin. And the worst part was that they were directly involved in its destruction.

If only they were a little bit stronger, they could have prevented this from happening.

"Don't blame yourselves," Atlan said to Ninth and the others. "This would have happened either way."

His words sent a shock to the others. "What do you mean, Atlan?" Ninth asked.

Atlan looked up at the sky and saw the stars all watching them from up above.

When he underwent his transformation, he came across the truth. And that truth led him to despise the Gods and everything they stood for.

"You'll find out soon enough," Atlan said to them. "I'll just give you one piece of advice. Don't trust the Gods. Any of them," he said with a serious voice.

Ninth and the others couldn't believe Atlan's words. After all, they were taught that Gods were benevolent beings that helped humans advance and prosper in their lives.

But from what Atlan seemed to imply, it seemed as if the Gods were not as good as they were taught.

Even though they trusted Atlan with all of their hearts because he saved their lives, they couldn't help but doubt his words. Unless they saw something that definitively proved his accusations, then they were going to keep believing in the Gods.

But of course, because he warned them, they would become a lot more suspicious.

"AAAHHHH!"

"HE'S DEAD! THEY'RE ALL DEAD!"

Atlan and the others heard screaming and shouting everywhere.

As they looked all around the City, they saw nothing but chaos and destruction. Buildings were burning, people were rioting, and many more were trying to get out of this mess.
