Reborn with Infinity Skill Points, I Enslaved All Universes-Chapter 245 --Descent of the Angels
The Human Emperor tried once again to contact one of the incarnations Daniel had left behind in this world.
But each of those incarnations acted like puppets on strings—executing only pre-programmed orders, completely unresponsive to any attempts at communication.
In an instant, all the pressure that had once been shouldered by Daniel now fell squarely back onto the Human Emperor’s shoulders.
"I really thought," the emperor muttered to himself, "that with this Thousand-Year Apocalypse, my role had finally come to an end... I could finally enjoy retirement."
"But it seems I’ll have to keep going after all."
A faint smile of helplessness appeared on his face, but it quickly faded. A moment later, his expression grew grim and serious. Humanity was on the brink of extinction—he couldn’t afford to show even the slightest sign of weakness.
Immediately, the Human Emperor issued a global command—an imperial edict bearing his seal.
"All awakeners not currently on special assignments are to assume combat-ready status."
"All human and allied races are to enter Level 1 Battle Alert."
For humanity, Level 1 Alert meant the highest possible war footing.
According to protocol, all resources were to be centralized. Everyone, regardless of class or background, was to prepare for total war.
This alert signified one thing: humanity stood on the precipice of annihilation.
Survival—and a desperate will to fight—became the only meaningful goals.
As long as even 1% of the population survived, humanity would not be extinct.
No matter the cost, there would be no retreat.
Once the decree spread, countless awakeners across the continent of myriad races adopted solemn expressions.
"My god... Level 1 Battle Alert?! I’ve never seen this in my entire life!"
"Same here! I’ve lived over two hundred years and I’ve never encountered this before!"
"Let me give you a little history," one veteran whispered grimly. "Level 1 Alert is only issued during species-level extinction events."
"As far as I know, the last time this alert was activated was during the previous Thousand-Year Apocalypse."
"You mean a thousand years ago?! No wonder I’ve never heard of it..."
In mere moments, the entire continent had mobilized.
All eyes turned skyward—to the descending figures of the Angels of Gold and Silver.
No one knew how long they had waited. But finally, the first of the angels set foot upon the earth.
The Angels of Gold and Silver had officially descended.
And for many of the awakeners present, this was the first time they had ever seen an angel up close.
They were, in truth, breathtaking.
The Angels of Gold and Silver possessed an overwhelming beauty, exuding a natural air of holiness and grandeur. Behind each one, majestic golden wings unfurled, shimmering with divine light.
So... these were the beings known as gods’ chosen race?
They looked so divine—so utterly out of place in this grim, war-torn world.
One of the angels lifted his head, eyes gazing toward the direction of his celestial homeland.
"It seems the laws here still haven’t fully lifted," he murmured.
"The more powerful the being, the stronger the suppression..."
"Very well. Then allow me to be the first to begin the purification of this world!"
He raised a single hand slowly. At his fingertips, a massive sword of pure gold condensed into existence.
"Praise be to Lady Aurelia. Allow me to cleanse this land of its filth and ignorance in your name!"
But just as the angel prepared to bring down his golden blade, a sudden downpour of luminous arrows fell from the heavens.
The angel’s expression darkened as he sensed the overwhelming energy bearing down on him. With a swing of his massive sword, he unleashed a golden arc of energy upward to intercept the attack.
Blade met arrows in a thunderous collision that shook the skies.
And then, from the air above, a lazy voice echoed:
"Meow~ So what’s so special about angels? I honestly don’t get where you people get your pride from."
A sudden hurricane formed in the sky, moonlight shining down in radiant beams.
The Angel of Gold and Silver’s expression turned heavy.
"The devotee of Moon Goddess Luna?"
"Correct, meow~ Surprised you recognized me!"
Ally stretched lazily, a relaxed smirk playing on her lips—but her eyes sparkled with icy contempt.
"You’re not even one of the god’s main devotees. That makes you cannon fodder at best. So now that you’ve met the First Devotee of Moon Goddess Luna, why don’t you drop to your knees and beg for mercy?"
With that, Ally activated her [Insight] skill, scanning the angel before her.
...
[Joshua]
[Level: 198]
[Race: Angel]
[Innate Talent: Grade B]
[Description: An utterly unremarkable, average angel.]
Joshua was, to say the least, disappointing.
He wasn’t even level 200. His talent grade was only B. Weak, unimpressive, and certainly unworthy of facing someone like Ally—an SSS-tier awakener and Luna’s First Devotee.
"Well, that’s enough talking. I don’t feel like wasting words, meow. Let’s get this over with!"
Without waiting for a response, Ally launched herself into battle, intending to end this fight in one swift move.
But just as she moved to strike, the situation abruptly changed.
A flood of angels suddenly descended all around her.
Though most of them hovered around level 200, they still posed a significant threat.
Being members of a superior race, Angels of Gold and Silver enjoyed racial bonuses that often gave them an edge over other awakeners.
Among the group, Ally even spotted two individuals with S-grade talents.
Meanwhile, Joshua, the angel she had just mocked, launched a counterattack of his own.
Ally twisted her body effortlessly and dodged the strike. With reflexes honed through years of battle, she retaliated with her own skill—swift, precise, and lethal.
Her power overwhelmed him in an instant. A single attack tore through Joshua’s chest.
Yet surprisingly, he didn’t die right away. Instead, he grinned.
"That’s it? Looks like you’re not as strong as I thought."
And then, finally, his HP hit zero.
His body disintegrated into a flurry of golden feathers and vanished into the wind.
But Ally’s face did not relax in the slightest.
Because more and more angels continued to descend upon the world.
Even as Moon Goddess Luna’s First Devotee, Ally had needed to exert near-full power to eliminate one mid-level angel.
How was she supposed to deal with the hundreds—no, thousands—more?
No.
She looked around sharply and her pupils suddenly shrank in alarm.
It wasn’t just dozens.
It wasn’t even thousands. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
The once-open sky was now crowded—absolutely choked—with angels.
Tens of billions... no, hundreds of billions of angels!
Their sheer numbers blotted out the heavens, a divine tide crashing down upon the world.
And the worst part?
Every single one of them was at least level 200.
Ally shivered involuntarily.
This... this was the true arrival of the Apocalypse.
Could the races of this world... really survive it?
