Chapter 530: Trag’Oul Appears

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The so-called Crystal Arch was a silver-white tower that soared into the skies at the top of Heaven. This silver tower was composed of two side-by-side pillars. At the top was a forked tip similar to the Spear of Valor, Solarion. At this spot, the two pillars approached and converged to form an X-shaped arch. At the intersection, an enormous green crystal was inlaid here. This huge crystal was said to be formed from Anu’s spine, and the green light was full of incomparable life force, constantly radiating toward the High Heavens.

In Auriel’s Gardens of Hope, every time angels sang holy hymns here, the harmonious notes would resonate with this green crystal. At the same time, the souls of the angels hidden in the crystal would be reborn.

This was originally the most sacred and beautiful scene in the High Heavens, but unfortunately, it would never appear again.

The Angel of Hope Auriel was trapped in the Void, and the demon army had already captured the High Heavens. There was smoke and ruins everywhere. The corruption of dark power was spreading in the High Heavens, and mottled black impurities could be seen everywhere. The hymns of Heaven had long lost their harmony and could no longer resonate with the crystal.

Mephisto, Diablo, and Baal entangled Imperius and Itherael at the foot of the silver tower, allowing Roy to enter it easily. He shuttled through the maze-like paths of the tower, searching for paths and portals to the upper level.

It couldn’t be helped. The entire silver tower didn’t allow anyone to fly up at all. The powerful life force released by the green crystal was constantly washing the tower. This power suppressed all the air domains and formed a unique air prohibition effect. Only through the portals set by the angels could one go up bit by bit.

In this tower, angels had once walked through various halls with their heads held high. They regarded themselves as the masters of the world, but this arrogant attitude quickly welcomed punishment. The last time Diablo attacked High Heavens, he had defeated the arrogance of all the angels and left tragic scars in this tower. With Roy’s arrival, this scene seemed to be repeating itself. Now, the entire silver tower was empty. Except for some holy inscriptions and structures shining slightly, the tower was silent.

Most of the angels had already died in battle, and they were stretched thin to guard this silver tower. Now, Roy could only see some tall angel statues holding swords standing in the tower…

He was not used to this empty environment as he walked. But just as he was about to reach the middle of the silver tower, he suddenly heard an ethereal voice echoing in his ears.

“Stop…

“Stop…

“Don’t go any farther…”

Roy frowned and looked around but found no one around. Moreover, all his perception was telling him that there were no creatures in the tower.

So, where did this voice come from?

Roy thought about it and then continued moving forward. But this time, he began to focus on capturing the voice.

As he continued forward, the voice began to echo again. Moreover, it seemed to be a little clearer this time, and even the content changed.

“Stop your steps…

“The spine of Anu cannot be destroyed…

“It’s not too late to turn back..

Roy stopped and shouted at his surroundings, “Who is it?! Stop hiding and come out!”

But the surroundings were still empty, and the echoing murmurs continued to echo in his ears for a moment. The owner of the voice was nowhere to be seen.

Roy sneered. Not coming out? Then just keep hiding!

So he ignored it and started moving forward again. No matter what the voice said, he didn’t stop and turned a deaf ear.

When he entered the top of the silver tower and was about to approach the huge crystal, the owner of the voice finally seemed to be a little anxious.

“Demon King Osiris, you are making the wrong choice!

“The spine of Anu is the foundation of the existence of the High Heavens. It can’t be broken!

“If you really do this, the balance maintained for millions of years will no longer exist! ”

Roy treated what this voice said earlier as bullshit. But when he heard the last sentence and the word ‘balance’, he stopped and pondered for a while before tentatively saying into the surrounding, “Trag’Oul?”

The voice was silent for a while before reappearing. He sighed and admitted,

“It’s me…”

“You really appeared!” Recalling the information Mephisto told him, Roy smiled. “If I didn’t expose you, would you have kept hiding and talking to me like that?”

Trag’Oul’s voice came, and his tone regained its calm as he said, “To be honest, I don’t want to appear in front of any angel or demon. But Demon King Osiris, what you have done threatens the balance of the entire world, so I have to find a way to stop you!”

“Did you say that to Diablo as well?” Roy asked. “If I remember correctly, Diablo also attacked the Crystal Arch and tried to corrupt the spine of Anu. At that time, did you appear to warn him?”

“… No, not at all!” Trag’Oul replied.

“Oh? Then why did you appear this time?” Roy asked with interest.

Trag’Oul was silent for a while before finally saying, “Because at that time, Tyrael led the nephalem into the High Heavens, so I knew that Diablo would inevitably fail…”

Roy reacted. “Necromancers? There are necromancers among the nephalem? So you can know the battle situation through them?”

‘Yes, the necromancers are my believers!” Trag’Oul said. “When they pray to the path of balance during battle, I will know everything… But this time, Demon King Osiris, your scheme succeeded. The relationship between humans and angels has worsened, and no nephalem will help the High Heavens. I can’t see the final outcome clearly. But in order to prevent the worst from happening, I can only appear and warn you…’

“Your so-called warning is to pretend to be mysterious and make some noise in my ears?” Roy mocked. “Trag’Oul, the Book of Rathma of the necromancers describes you as the Guardian of Sanctuary. In their eyes, you’re a great legend. But now, you don’t even dare to appear in front of a demon like me. Do you only know how to play some tricks?”

Trag’Oul didn’t mind Roy’s mockery. “I am the Guardian of Sanctuary, so I can’t leave Sanctuary and exist. I can’t truly enter the High Heavens or the Burning Hells, so I can only talk to you through this soul voice. I’m not afraid of you!”

“Okay, I accept this explanation!” Roy spread his hands. “Now, let’s turn back to the question… You have to know that I’m a demon. To borrow a sentence from

Mephisto: ‘I am a spirit who is forever negating’. What does the path of balance you want to protect have to do with me? Why should I listen to you?”

“Because if this world loses the High Heavens, the demons of the Burning Hells will wreak havoc in all of Sanctuary. As the Guardian, I must prevent this situation from happening!” Trag’Oul’s tone was very strict. “The dominance of demons isn’t a good thing for me, the Guardian.”

Roy shook his head. “Wrong. If you are really the Guardian of Sanctuary, you should stand up to resist us demons and not stop me from destroying the High Heavens! By the same logic, if the Burning Hells are destroyed, you should stand up to resist the High Heavens and not stop the destruction of the Burning Hells! ”

He spread his hands and concluded, “To put it bluntly, if you want to be this guardian, then standing up and fighting against both angels and demons at the same time is what you should do! But have you done it?”

Facing Roy’s question, Trag’Oul didn’t say anything. It was unknown if he couldn’t answer or if he disdained to answer.

“So in my opinion, you’re actually a fake guardian! Your so-called path of balance is to see angels and demons continue fighting for a long time while you hide behind the scenes and continue to grow wretchedly, right?” Roy grinned sinisterly as he exposed Trag’Oul’s true thoughts. “Whether angels destroy Sanctuary or demons destroy Sanctuary, it’s a disaster for you! Because your strength hasn’t fully matured, you can only use this method to fight for space to survive!”

“… It seems like you demons have studied me quite a bit…” TragOul was silent for a moment. “I actually knew that when my existence was exposed to the world, it would always alert angels and demons… Mephisto told you all of this, right? The seven demon kings of Hell are indeed extremely cunning. They pretended not to care about my existence while studying me thoroughly. Demon King Osiris, it seems like you should understand what kind of existence I am, right?”

“World-soul titan living in Sanctuary?” Roy asked.

“That’s right!” Trag’Oul admitted directly. “Demon King Osiris, I am a world-soul titan born in Sanctuary. All existences that threaten Sanctuary are my enemies. If you don’t give up and continue moving forward, then don’t blame me for being rude!”

“Oh? Enemy? Then, what will you do?” Roy was very curious.

Trag’Oul didn’t answer. But the next second, a strange energy field erupted in the silver tower and enveloped Roy. Roy felt the scene in front of him change, and he instantly came to a strange world from the silver tower.

Under his feet was a slowly rotating planet, and a gigantic sun was on his right.

Golden flames tens of thousands of kilometers tall rose from the solar corona, looking soul-stirring. In the distance, endless stars were shining, and he could see enormous comets flying through space, asteroid belts formed by hundreds of millions of meteors, and even immense flashes of supernova explosions.

This was a scene in space.. It looked so beautiful and fatal…
