Peace is a delicate equilibrium in the chaos of existence. Its song of serenity is reachable to all. In the arms of peace, storms gather and dance to form a wave of justice.


Colors within the three half-moons on God Demon Power stones; red, blue, and green, represent the main emotions of a God Demon, them being: anger, sadness, and fear, given to them by an angel. In the fourth and fifth one, yellow and orange, dwells the emotions of love and joy, provided by an archangel.

But within the sixth half-moon...



PRESENT TIME—HEAVEN

Above, a vast light blue sky arched like a celestial dome, blanketing everything in a serene embrace. Clouds were soft and adorned the expanse, inviting the possibility of walking across their ethereal forms. This is Heaven.

Heaven itself existed as a sublime void, encompassing around eighty percent of the universe's Hypervoid. Nestled in an alternate dimension, it could only be accessed through the Gates of Gods, concealed within Akshar's room of void—a confidential meeting place where Asher once met Akshar.

Governed by the Celestial God Helion and overseen by the highest echelon of beings, the Seven Angels of Heaven, this ethereal place held immeasurable authority. Seven Angels, the Sebun, are ranked even higher than S.S.O.G and the Royal Consort, who are in fact, the rulers of the cosmos.

As Helion strolled through Heaven, the Sebun trailed behind—the epitome of kindness and unparalleled might. These divine beings were the cosmic rulers, entrusted with maintaining the fragile balance of power.

Access to Heaven was a privilege reserved for the highest entities known—Gods, Archangels, Angels, the Royal Consort, and the Holy Guards of the shrine.

But something unexpected happened. Suddenly, a figure sprinted across the clouds, eventually halting to catch its breath. "H—Helion! Th—They... They! They are here!"


ABOUT TEN MINUTES LATER THE LAST TIME—ATLAS

"I see how it is... So, his name is Sagittarius?" Kazuri murmured, casting a narrow gaze to his right. "He must be here to take Onyx. Be on alert and do not attack blindly, all of you."

As his words trailed off, Sagittarius entered the building of Atlas as he hid his aura perfectly.

"Not bad, pupil of Ace. You are not dumb, nor ever was."

"Sagittarius!"

Beside Kazuri, Lance positioned himself, and both extended their hands to their sides. "Onyx, try not to lose your cool! He is after you!"

Sagittarius smirked, and in an instant, the walls of Atlas were obliterated by an incoming force. Debris scattered, and dust enveloped the area. "Sagittarius! Move forward!" a voice echoed.

Nodding, he sprinted ahead, and upon his chest being touched, a long sword materialized from his mouth. "Divine Punishment!" With a roar, he swung his sword, only to be barely halted by Kazuri's blade.

Sagakiri leaped toward him, severing Sagittarius's head. Catching it mid-air, the celestial being casually reattached it without effort. "Killing me is impossible. I am not trying to act tough, but everything I say is the truth. I do not lie."

He clashed with Kazuri and loud booming sounds of steel were heard all around the place. "Lance! Back me up!"

Lance knew what he had to do and barely stopped the other figure from striking down Kazuri.

"Just what the fuck are you?!" Lance questioned her, the Woman of Harmony. "You differ from demons, just as Sagittarius."

"I am Gemini, founder of the clan known as Harmony."
