Grim Reaper in the Apocalypse: Reaping Immortals-Chapter 371: Reunion
Because Atlan activated the False Mutation of his Canzer Polyglot mutation, the Queen was able to understand his words even though he was using human language.
She was speechless with his audacity. A mere human treated her as nothing but an oversized lizard. The thought was so absurd that the Queen wasn’t immediately offended but felt that it was a little bit amusing.
’I wonder where you get your confidence, human. Careful. If I wasn’t so magnanimous, I would have crushed your skull along with the humans back there.’
Atlan, instead of answering, continued to put his attention towards Ninth, who was bleeding out of every orifice. He had to rip off part of her battle suit just to make a make-shift bandage to at least patch her up a bit.
"Porter…what are you…doing—COUGH!’
Ninth wanted Atlan to escape with Tulip before the Queen had the chance to get her hands on him. She didn’t want him to end up like him.
"You should worry about yourself," Atlan said as he twisted a knot to stop the bleeding in her arm. "You’re losing a lot of SoulTime."
Ninth couldn’t even access her Soul System to see her SoulTime. That was how much she damaged her body. So, she knew that her time was coming to an end soon. So, she wasn’t fighting it anymore.
But Atlan could still live. He could still escape with his life intact.
Instead, he came here and…
It was at that moment that Ninth finally realized that something was wrong. After all, she had never felt Atlan’s presence before he arrived on this battlefield.
Her mind and body were so damaged that it took her this long to remember that they were about to die from the Queen’s atomic bomb.
They should have all perished into nothing but atoms.
But instead, they were alive. Not only that but somehow, Atlan was able to arrive in this place without the Queen immediately noticing him.
It didn’t make sense.
Ninth blinked her blurry eyes. It was only then that she noticed a peculiar white object behind Atlan. It looked…pure. The aura and power it emitted were familiar—like a warm hug in the deepest of winters.
Then, she finally realized.
Those were wings. Normally, having a wing mutation wasn’t all that strange. However, Atlan was only a Student-level Savior. He shouldn’t have been given the chance to obtain this kind of mutation at least before his third year as a Savior.
And from what she could sense with her limited aura, the power emanating from those wings was something that only top-notch mutations emitted. It was probably above a 6-star rarity, judging from its aesthetic beauty alone.
But perhaps the biggest mystery of them all was the origin of those wings.
It didn’t look like any of the wings that she was familiar with. Its feathers were too white—the kind of white that would still glow even in the darkest of nights. It felt like it was forever illuminated by some kind of light that came from nowhere.
Just then, she saw the dragon behind Atlan open its mouth and release a ball of void, with violet and black mists of energy swirling around it.
The Queen finally had enough of Atlan ignoring her, so she decided to simply punish him by killing him without him knowing it.
Ninth, even in her most damaged state, couldn’t help but push past her limits to try and help Atlan. She was willing to put herself in between the destructive void and Atlan.
But before she could get up, Atlan pushed her back down and stopped her from doing something unnecessary.
Atlan turned around and faced the destructive void.
Suddenly, a sword and shield manifested in his hands, atom by atom in a mere fraction of a second.
Atlan brandished the shield in front of him and protected himself and everyone behind him from the void’s destructive properties.
And as it hit the shield, a strange force counter-acted the tyrannical aura left by the dragon, fighting it till it disintegrated into nothingness.
The shield rendered the dragon’s attack useless. Atlan didn’t even feel any recoil from using the shield.
The moment Ninth saw the sword and shield, she felt the power those weapons emanated and knew that they weren’t normal objects. If she was reading it right, then those weapons alone were stronger than her at her best!
That didn’t seem possible. Ninth didn’t even know why such ordinary-looking weapons would have so much power hidden inside them.
The only one who knew the significance of this weapon was the Queen.
The moment it appeared in Michael’s hands, was the moment the Queen realized that she hadn’t destroyed the prophecy as of yet.
Just as she feared, it seemed as if Atlan was the chosen one. He was the one who was going to help Tulip in killing her.
When she first heard that Atlan knew about Tulip’s name, she became suspicious of his real identity. She still wasn’t sure he was the chosen one, but to be sure, she imprisoned him in the infinite void thinking that he would never be able to escape.
But he proved her wrong.

’Where did you get that…’ the Queen asked, but it seemed as though she knew the answer already. She just didn’t want to accept it.
"I got it from a few friends I met in your prison. You might know them," Atlan said with a smile.
Just then, three blobs of light emerged out of his battle suit and showed themselves to the Queen.

The Queen, upon seeing the three good fairies, couldn’t help but take a step back from surprise.
She knew that the shield and sword could only come from the three fairies, but she didn’t think that they would come out of the prison with the human! This completely changed the battlefield. Her previous lack of seriousness in the fight quickly turned around, with her body tensing up as it expected a hard battle.
But contrary to the Queen’s thoughts, the three good fairies ignored her. Instead, they floated towards Tulip, showing their faces to their daughter for the first time in a long time.
