Versatile: Alternate World-Chapter 616 A Spark Of Rebellion

War changed most of the terrain in the Luminous Continent in the past timeline. Due to the monster invasion and the cult themselves bringing ruin to almost everywhere they land, the chaos is widespread and has made most of the places in many areas ruined, destroyed, and cannot be rebuilt again, or totally inhabitable by anything beyond the things that have occupied the land itself and unless it was cleansed, it will remain as a stain.

Thankfully, due to my preemptive actions and killing the Tormentor much earlier than expected, the damage is minimal enough. It might be a small gesture but it was enough for the faction I will be joining. Due to the war against the monsters, they suffered a lot and have lost resources, have very low morale, and against enemies who are almost impossible to beat, they are at a total disadvantage.

I am just in the distance but I can see the place that I was heading to had a large black smoke rising on the horizon. A normal bonfire won't make that much smoke and it is also impossible for campfires to do that. It's not like they are burning the forest itself.

"The war has already started?! Lucia, can you scan ahead on the area where the smoke is coming from?"

"I will try once we get closer Master. With all the trees around, I can't scan the whole area properly."

I pick up a scroll from my inventory and tear a scroll with the skill [Area Stealth] to let both Leona and I get covered by the ability. Once the skill enveloped both of us, I let both of us closer to the area so that Lucia can properly scan the place without getting too close.

"There, Master! I am scanning now!"

After a few seconds, Lucia answered again. "Scan complete. There are angels there, one side is full of those black-winged angels and the other side has pure white wings in them. It seems the black-winged angels are having a hard time and from the looks of it, the white-winged angels are the ones who instigated the attacks." 𝘧r𝗲𝑒𝔀𝘦𝙗𝓃oν𝑒l.𝐜𝗼m

"I see. So this was the tactic of those guys that Sigma and Sparrow mentioned. The Castellan of this area is purging all of the rebels in the area so that the plan that the two discovered will be carried out."

"Are you going to help the white-winged angels, Master?"

"No. This time, we are not going to side with those peeps. We are going to spark a rebellion this time around."

I let Leona hover above the village where the Fallen Angels are defending. They have plenty of casualties and the Angels are already doing a good number on them.

"Return Leona."

Leona is immediately recalled and I fell into the air. Before I reach the ground, I activated my Flight ability, and fly into the battlefield. I landed on the side of the Fallen Angels and at the exact time I touched the ground, the duration of the [Area Stealth] is also over, making me reappear and causing the Fallen Angels to panic the moment they saw me. However, before they will attack me, I put my palm flat into the ground and activated a healing skill.

"[Area Heal]!"

The wounded around me looked at their wounds that started to close on their own and the blood that was spilled disappeared and returned to their bodies. Causing them to wonder what is happening. And as they wondered what is happening, I pulled out the Versatile Weapon, changed it to a scythe, and jumped through the barricade that is used to stop the angels from advancing. Before the Angels can respond, I swing my scythe in the air, spinning as I land on them. With little time to even dodge, the angels can only watch as the scythe cuts their bodies in half. Because they are just angels with thin armor, the Versatile Weapon that can easily tear out the armor like paper, the angels were immediately killed without a struggle.

"[Due to your recent actions, the Angels will now view you as an enemy and will attack sight.]"

"[Your actions have made the Fallen Angels a bit trusting of you. They will view you as a friend]"

Looks like it is a success. And although it is sad that I have become an enemy of the Angels, it is necessary if I wanted to change the outcome of the war. I don't like the way it ended in the past. I don't really care if I changed many things too much in the game. I will take responsibility for everything that will change because of my little actions.

The angels that are not caught by my spinning scythe attack started to run away but before they can even run, multiple golden chains appeared out of nowhere and pierced their heads with them, killing them instantly. In the distance, a familiar snake appeared while at the top is Sigma standing with her two hands crossed together with Harmless Sparrow observing the situation from behind.

"Why are you guys here? I thought you guys would be going straight to the Large Tree?" I asked the two of them.

"We plan to stop in a small town to resupply stuff since we escaped the City of Clouds hastily before the Tactician tracks us to be the one responsible for intercepting the letter we were supposed to stop in the town and buy some potions but since there seems to be a battle, we decided to intervene," Sigma answered as she flies down from the head of her snake alongside with Harmless Sparrow before recalling him back.

"I was expecting to see more action arriving here but I never even get to do anything. Sad," Harmless Sparrow scratches her head.

While we are talking, one of the angels with a mask on his face approached us.

"Did I hear it correctly? You guys intercepted a letter that was sent by the Tactician?"

Sigma turned to look at the Fallen and frowned. "And you are?"

"I apologize. I will have to introduce myself. I am Alain, I am the leader of the Rebels and the Leader of this village. So, please answer, did you guys intercept a letter from the Tactician himself?"

Sigma turned to look at me and I just answered her with a single nod of my head.

"Yes. We did intercept a letter from the Tactician himself. However, we cannot show you the letter itself. We destroyed it before as we suspect it will be tracked but we still remembered the contents. We are quite sure that it involves you if what you said as the leader of the Rebels is true."

Hearing this, Alain looked at the men behind him and they give a nod at each other.

"Come with me. We will discuss things inside."

We followed Alain inside the village. Although the village is looking good, it is clear that they are in poor condition and it seems that some of the buildings are almost on their last straws and are already on the verge of collapse.

On the side of the streets, some of the Fallen Angels are being treated for their wounds. I could immediately cast [Area Heal] on them and heal them from their wounds but I hold it back for a bit as we will be discussing things with him. Until we knew what his plans are, I will have to hold off healing the wounded just yet.

He led us to a building that is in the center of the village which means this is the office of the leader. Just like the rest of the buildings around, just a little bit of shaking and this building will collapse in no time.

He prepared us some chairs and we sat down on them with a table in front of us. He pulls off his mask and hangs it on the side as he starts to prepare us some snacks.

"I apologize for the poor conditions of our place. It's hard to meet our meet's ends due to the Castellan destroying most of our means to make business properly and although we are slowly recovering, it is still not fast enough to fully recover especially if the troops of the Castellan always harass and tries to destroy our village whenever he gets a chance."

"It's fine. Anyways, let's hear everything from these two about the letter itself."

"So this is how they put the letter and the contents were..."

Sigma and Harmless Sparrow took turns retelling the contents of the letter. After

"Hearing all of the contents, it seems they have indeed learned what we did to his previous letter and troops. I already expected it but to think it was this soon, we will be having trouble responding against them on this one," Alain has a bitter look on his face.

"So it was true that you guys knew about the Tactician's plan?" Harmless Sparrow asked.

"Yes. There is no way we won't know about it as he involved our families in this battle. We don't want to think too much about it but I must put an end to everything and their aggression towards us. We will never be bowing down to them and letting them kill us. This is where we are born to be, then this is also where we will die. We will be fighting back."
