The girls didn't know where those people went either. Feeling the sudden pressure around her throat, she found herself unable to let out a single word.
The red haired man was already frustrated. In his anger, he wasn't able to control his strength. Cracking sounds resounded in the room, as everyone there lost their lives in an instant from the anger of the god.
It was only after killing everyone there, the red haired god sighed. "These useless ants. They can't be of help..."
"Now where should I find the Young Lord? Would he go back to the Realm of Gods? That would be a problem if he does..."
He stepped forward and closed his eyes, sending all the auras in the room. From what he could feel, there was no spatial energy of the Realm of Gods.
He sighed in relief, realizing that the young gods didn't go to the realm of gods at least. They went somewhere else to play around.
"This spatial energy is weak. Not enough for the realm of gods. So they probably went to another Lower World... But there are so many... Sigh, can't these guys make things a little easier for me?"

An entire day passed and Ezekiel hadn't moved an inch. It was as if he was a frozen statue that had no life at all.
It was only during the next day, he slowly opened his eyes. He reached out his hand, grabbing a little of the soul, keeping it safely before flying high in the sky.
He stood far away from the world in space, looking at the spherical world in the distance that appeared to be huge yet small at the same time.
Ezekiel's eyes revealed quite a lot of emotions as if this was the last time he was going to be here. He wanted to memorise his world... Every small detail about it.
"I will get you justice..." He muttered, even if it takes an eternity.
A Spatial portal opened behind him. His body flew back, entering the portal. He disappeared, and soon the portal closed. The space once again returned to the usual calm and silence.
****
Another portal opened in the Realm of Gods. Ezekiel stepped out of the portal. His Divine Sense covered the entire world as he tried to locate Gabriel. It was time for him to start Gabriel's training.
Soon, he noticed the young man in a certain place, near a small pond. For some reason, Ezekiel felt that something there was affecting his Divine Sense as well. The pond remained a hazy location for his divine sense.
His figure flickered as he disappeared, appearing next to Gabriel in the next moment.
Gabriel was surrounded before the pond, looking at the creatures in the water. He was so distracted that at the moment, he didn't even notice Ezekiel's presence.
Ezekiel stood there silently, observing Gabriel for a moment. The young man's fascination with the creatures in the pond reminded Ezekiel of his own curiosity and innocence when he was at that age.
However, he could also see that the creatures in the pond weren't so simple either. Something was really strange about them. They didn't have life force, yet they were full of vitality.
They appeared ordinary yet special at the same time. It was as if something was really paradoxical about them. He couldn't see through them either, which was strange. It was as if their creatures existed yet didn't exist at the same time.
He also grew curious as to what this thing was. However, unlike the old Rebel God, he didn't try to touch the pond. He could feel that it was dangerous... He felt more danger than anything he ever felt before.
"Enjoying the view, I see," Ezekiel said, his voice calm yet commanding, causing Gabriel to startle and turn around. Surprise filled Gabriel's eyes as he recognized Ezekiel standing there.
"You're here!" Gabriel exclaimed. He had been waiting for Ezekiel to return, since today was the day they were to start training.
He didn't know how a mortal like Ezekiel became so strong in the first place. He didn't know if he was going to become just as strong or not. However, he didn't desire to fall behind! He wanted to stand shoulder to shoulder with Ezekiel. He wanted to be stronger!
Ezekiel nodded, his gaze shifting back to the pond.
"Indeed, I have returned," he replied. "It seems you've found a rather intriguing place. May I ask what this is?"
Gabriel quickly moved aside, giving Ezekiel space to stand beside him. The two of them gazed at the creatures swimming in the pond, their attention focused on the vibrant colours and graceful movements.
"These creatures," Gabriel began, his voice filled with wonder, "even I don't know what they are. However, something is really familiar about them. I just don't understand what."
He had thought that Ezekiel might be able to answer what this place was. Unfortunately, from his question, it felt as if he didn't know either.
Ezekiel observed the creatures with a profound look in his eyes. "These beings are connected to the essence of life and hold mysteries beyond their ordinary appearances. They possess an innate harmony with the world around them."
Gabriel listened intently, his curiosity piqued. "Do you know what they are? And why is it that I can't sense them clearly with my Divine Sense?"
Ezekiel sighed softly, his gaze fixed on the enigmatic pond. "You're not alone. I can't sense them either. It's as if they are the personification of the world itself... Each of the four depicts a fate that is beyond my understanding."
"They are entities that exist in the boundary between realms, neither fully in the mortal world nor in the realm of gods. As for why you can't sense them clearly, it is because their presence resonates with a unique energy that remains hidden from most divine senses, including mine."
Gabriel absorbed Ezekiel's words, his eyes reflecting a mix of fascination and curiosity. Even someone like Ezekiel couldn't understand these.
