2024-10-29 19:42:56Angels, ethereal beings present in all worlds, held the role of overseers created by the gods to watch over their creations. While they observed, angels seldom interfered, making them the least sought-after spirits for those who wielded divinity. This reluctance stemmed from the angels' peculiar personalities.
Although angels possessed the capacity to experience emotions, they preferred to remain emotionless, eschewing feelings altogether. They lacked free will, perpetually following the directives of their superiors. Among angels, emotions were seen as a weakness.
Gaige couldn't help but be wary of the potential differences between the angels in his world and those on Earth. He pondered if the resemblance between their outward appearances masked fundamental disparities in their principles.
With his hands clasped in prayer, Gaige gazed up at the angel, glowing brilliantly against the night sky. Earthly depictions of angels often depicted them as fair-skinned beings perched on clouds, adorned in flowing white robes, and bearing two enormous wings or harps. The reality, however, differed significantly from these expectations.
The angel above him was completely unclothed, displaying breathtaking beauty and a flawless figure. Cascading dark hair, partially obscured by bangs, framed her face. A single eye peered out from the veil of her bangs, also a deep black hue.
While her appearance resembled that of a human, she wore no clothing, and her immense wings were attached at her ankles. These wings unfurled to double the size of her body when spread open.
Gaige recollected his first encounter with an angel, a moment that had rendered him speechless. Now, his only reaction was a slackened jaw.
The angel peered down at Gaige with an inscrutable expression and urged him to state his needs before someone discovered them. Her voice, devoid of emotion, resonated in Gaige's mind alone, keeping their conversation hidden from Andy, the bystander.
Gaige hesitated before asking, "Catch? Who will catch us?"
"Who else could it be?" The angel regarded him sternly. "You, child, do not belong to this world. I do not wish to become further entangled. State your needs swiftly."
Gaige yearned to delve into the matter further, to understand what the angel alluded to, but he couldn't afford to squander this summoning. Instead, he replied, "Please assist me in locating Rowan, Minka, Straz, and Howl. They are fellow returnees."
"Offer prayers for at least an hour daily for the next two months."
"Alright," Gaige reluctantly agreed.
In the blink of an eye, the rooftop returned to its dimly lit state. Gaige felt the weight of the commitment he had just made but couldn't deny that it was the most manageable condition he had encountered when seeking a favor from an angel.
"S-sir! D-did the divine being help locate everyone?"
"Yes, she wi–Ack!"
Gaige's words were cut off when information suddenly flooded his mind without warning. Images of the four transmigrators and directions to their location filled his thoughts.
"I'll never get used to this," Gaige muttered. He tapped Andy on the shoulder and instructed, "I'll go. Stay here."
Andy attempted to argue but was swiftly silenced as Gaige leaped from the building and raced off at astonishing speed.
Time was of the essence. Gaige had witnessed a vision of the four transmigrators in a perilous situation—bloodstained and desperate—prompting his urgency. He couldn't help but wonder why they were courting trouble in a peaceful world, even as he ventured into the unknown himself.
Dodging through rooftops and eluding CCTV cameras, Gaige covered vast distances in mere minutes. He reached a sprawling cornfield an hour later, guided by the images planted in his mind.
As per the angel's instructions, Gaige had no information about the adversaries the four were evading. He navigated the cornstalks cautiously, making use of his superior hearing to locate them.
Their labored breathing guided him to the transmigrators' hiding place. He sighed with relief at finding them but was greeted by a drawn longsword upon his arrival.
"Please leave us alone!"
A woman's voice echoed through the cornfield, revealing their pursuers at last. Gaige froze as he stared down the blade of an extraordinary sword, clearly beyond earthly craftsmanship.
"Are you one of the pursuers?" Gaige asked cautiously.
The black-robed figure responded with a gatling gun, taking to the air with ease. Gaige admired the man's strength, enabling him to wield such a heavy weapon and fly simultaneously. With a resigned sigh, Gaige once more assumed a prayerful posture.
The angelic chant invoked a dome-like shield above them, guarding against the onslaught of regular bullets. "W-who are you?"
"You're not one of the pursuers?" queried another of the transmigrators.
Gaige couldn't offer answers; he was occupied chanting his prayer. His gaze swept over the four, searching for someone to hold the shield in his stead. It was impossible to both defend and attack simultaneously. Fortunately, he had a peculiar method of transferring the shield, rendering it most effective when entrusted to the two women in the group.
"Please, hold the shield." Gaige kneeled before one of the women, clasping her hands and bestowing a brief kiss before instructing, "Don't speak; keep your hands together."

Gaige, unfamiliar with the identities of the transmigrators, decided to entrust the lady in the best physical condition with control of his protective shield. With divine energy gathered in his mouth, Gaige directed her not to speak to prevent spilling the energy, then rushed towards the unknown robed man carrying a Gatling gun. The sudden deep kiss not only shocked the lady but also bewildered the other three transmigrators. None could voice their objections, realizing that Gaige's strange action was linked to the protective shield enveloping them. Without a glance backward at the four, Gaige sprinted toward the mysterious assailant. He deftly cut two corn stalks, converting them into makeshift weapons infused with aura. While the stalks appeared normal, they possessed a sharp and robust edge, capable of dismembering a human. "Shit!" Gaige spun the stalks to shield himself from another volley of bullets. This time, the bullets proved more formidable than before. He kicked off the

Rowan, with his short, straight black hair styled in an undercut and intimidating gray eyes, appeared far from intimidating to Gaige. However, to his group, he radiated a dominant aura, evident in his leadership. But Gaige was disappointed. None of the leaders he had hoped to follow for protection and guidance in adapting to Earth met his expectations. He speculated that these individuals had lost their otherworldly strength due to an extended stay on Earth. Gaige couldn't reconcile the image of these formerly powerful beings with their current vulnerability. "There's no way they escaped from the other world with this level of strength. I'm sure these people were once formidable before coming here." "What are you casting?" Rowan demanded, jabbing Gaige's neck, drawing blood that trickled onto the longsword's blade. Misunderstanding Gaige's muttered incantation in Soleil's language as a spell, Rowan reacted in defense. "Y-you!" Gaige abruptly stood, accidentally causing Rowan to sc

Upon their return, Andy greeted them with a worried expression and a barrage of questions. Gaige allowed the group to have their reunion while he headed straight for the room where he had ordered his subordinates to prepare bedding. However, he found them shamelessly sprawled across his makeshift bed, fast asleep. Gaige was utterly drained. He hadn't had a chance to rest since his intense battles in the novel world, and even after returning to his original world, he had been on the move gathering information. What depleted him the most was expending his powers to assist this group of returnees. Too exhausted to kick his underlings out of bed, Gaige settled for pulling on his red fur coat and lying down on the floor. As the five returnees chatted among themselves, their voices gradually became distant murmurs as his eyelids grew heavier. The following morning, Gaige expected to wake up on the floor. To his surprise, he found himself next to a strikingly beautiful woman, his head nest
Welcome back Transmigrator Chapter Fourteen: Earth's Cold Welcome
The Earth was a peculiar place. A world inhabited by single-life beings, where death meant the end of existence. There were no second chances or afterlives here. Earth's survival rate stood high compared to other worlds with monsters, magic, and supernatural creatures. It was a less savage place, where a single life was deemed sufficient for all. Yet, every now and then, souls with multiple lives found themselves lost and stranded on Earth. To rectify this anomaly, "they" would send these lost souls to worlds where their existence matched. However, once one experienced life on Earth, the desire to return here would overpower any longing for a life of perpetual struggle. The transmigrators' ultimate goal had always been to return to Earth. They yearned for a life free from bloodshed and endless battles. Yet, upon their return, they were met with cold rejection. Earth was exclusive to single-life beings. Everyone and everything here had but one life to live; a single life was the sol
Welcome back Transmigrator Chapter Fifteen: An Ominous Encounter
In the heart of the day, the sky stretched out like a breathtaking canvas, adorned with shades of tranquil blue and milky white. These were the mornings Earth was meant for – green plastic lawns, garden chairs, weathered wooden porches, and delicate butterflies pirouetting above the steamy urban pavements. The sky, deep and serene, stretched infinitely, punctuated by sugary-sweet clouds. Gaige inhaled the nostalgia-laden breeze, savoring the tranquility. There were no monsters lurking on the ground, no wyverns soaring through the sky. This serene morning would have been perfect if it weren't for the existence of the purgers. "This is only the second day," Gaige muttered, his thoughts serving as a reassuring mantra, an attempt to quell the rising tension within him. "Why are you breathing this polluted air?" Minka's voice pulled him from his contemplation as she stepped out of the glass door of the department store. Gaige had decided to accompany Minka on their city stroll, his pres
Welcome back Transmigrator Chapter Sixteen: The Gathering of Powers
"Howl, work your magic on calming them down," Rowan ordered, rubbing his temples as he wrestled with thoughts. Facing multiple purgers at once was an insurmountable challenge. Gaige might have the strength to survive, but the rest of the group lacked the power to confront even a single purger with their current abilities. Rowan continued massaging his temples, pondering how they could endure this impending ordeal. "Did the spirit give any indication of how long this hunt will last?" Rowan inquired. "No," Gaige replied. "How generous of her to leave us in suspense," Rowan quipped with a wry smile. With Howl's group now calmed, they looked to Rowan with hope, eager for him to devise a plan to save them. Rowan sighed, understanding their anxiety. Their one advantage lay in Gaige's divine powers, sealed onto parchment paper for convenient access to healing spells. However, healing wouldn't be of much use if they died. He mustered his composure, addressing the group once more. "Firs
Welcome back Transmigrator Chapter Seventeen: Unmasking the Purgers
For most people, death remains shrouded in mystery and fear. Perspectives on what awaits in the afterlife vary widely, each one as bewildering as the next. But for the purgers, death is an unyielding certainty. Purgers, blessed with unnaturally long lifespans, bear the weight of knowing that this existence is their sole chance. They grapple with the awareness that death holds no second chances or reincarnations for them. They are trapped in an irrevocable decision, forced into their grim profession by various pressures beyond their control. Many returnees painted purgers as psychopaths due to the brutal and vicious manner in which they eliminated their targets. However, these actions were driven by a deep-seated rage toward returnees. It had become second nature for purgers to harbor intense hostility, leading to savage murders. Minka, clenching her fists in frustration, shared their cruel fate. "Purgers are never content with merely ending our lives. They take pleasure in tormentin
Welcome back Transmigrator Chapter Eighteen: The Seven-Day Purge
Twenty-eight days had passed, and the night sky glittered with stars, as though they might cascade like snowflakes at any moment. Gaige and Minka, stationed on the rooftop, gazed up at the tranquil sky, counting down the minutes until the angel's prophesied hunt would commence. "Five minutes left," Minka announced over the stolen handheld two-way radios, one for each of them. This ensured that everyone remained in constant communication, both inside and outside the building. The group had divided into three teams: Minka and Gaige were lookouts, Rowan and Andy served as decoys to lure the purgers into their carefully constructed traps, and Straz, Howl, and his friends manned the control room. Howl would oversee the traps and assist Strazz in deploying her poisonous fog and smoke when a purger was near. In essence, they had transformed their dilapidated building into a trap house designed to ensnare the purgers. But, of course, their fervent hope was that the purgers wouldn't show u

Once Gaige Feryuson returned to Earth, the system was no longer with him or anyone else. He was overjoyed when he gazed into his reflection and saw his appearance revert to what he recognized as his original and very first identity—the average-looking Kim Nery. Though he looked plain, weaker, and less imposing than the main character-like appearance of the Commander Knight Gaige Feryuson, he loved his Kim Nery look because it granted him more peace and a sense of calmness. "Papa! You look uglier!" Lambert pointed out, and he immediately jumped into Gaige's arms when he noticed him descending the stairs. "You don't have to be rude anymore," Gaige said. He laughed at his son's apt remark. "Bert, the purger system is all gone," and he gave him a kiss in appreciation for the fact that his son still recognized him despite his current downgraded appearance. Lambert pouted, causing Gaige to laugh even louder. Lambert said, "I am just being honest, papa." Everyone gathered one by one, draw

Chapter 255: "Welcome back, Kim Nery!"
The chaos surrounding Gaige Feryuson showed no signs of abating, even after the one who initiated it had perished. Explosions and fires raged, and the air echoed with screams and cries. The streets were strewn with corpses and blood, and despair loomed over everything. Gaige Feryuson realized that the world had indeed been abandoned because the once-familiar skies were now devoid of the countless angels he had grown accustomed to seeing. For Gaige, it was far from comforting to gaze up at a clear sky for the first time without spotting any celestial beings lazily drifting through the heavens. Despite the departure of the immensely powerful creator, this didn't imply that only humans would remain. The remaining purgeable beings still existed, and although their extraordinary abilities would gradually wane, new returnees would continue to arrive. This was a fortunate development for the returnees and transmigrators, although not all of them were benevolent; some certainly posed a thr

Chapter 254: "Dandelions"
Each existing world has its own set of rules and foundational principles. Whenever something or someone violates these laws or disrupts the foundation that sustains its existence, the gods, along with the celestial beings, step in to intervene. The Purger system is one such example of divine intervention. Its purpose is to ensure that Earth remains exclusive to single-lifers, and this exclusivity serves a specific objective. Single-lifers are inherently less powerful than multiple-lifers, making purgers indispensable for Earth's stability and balance. However, the gods retain the freedom to abandon a world if it becomes excessively troublesome and burdensome to maintain, regardless of the significance of its inhabitants. In the case of Earth, the loss of an archangel, a significant decrease in the purger population, and a recurrence of errors have made the gods less inclined to rectify the situation and more inclined to forsake the world. Abandoning a world is a relatively straigh

Chapter 253: "Shut it down!"
Gaige Feryuson and his family had safely departed Yawyklim City. Each member settled into their seats while Gaige piloted the minibus. It was a moment of respite, albeit brief, as an unexpected and massive explosion rocked the entire city of Yawyklim. Gaige slammed the brakes suddenly, causing all his passengers to lurch forward, then quickly settle back in their seats. Everyone peered out the windows, their curiosity piqued by the sudden explosion. "Hasn't the hunt concluded?" Cain inquired. In response, the others simply shrugged, equally perplexed. As they were leaving, they had witnessed angels descending from the sky. They assumed it was the angels' responsibility to restore order following the hunt's chaos. They didn't quite comprehend the methods the angels employed. Gaige mumbled, "Hmm, it's not the angels." He enhanced his vision using his divine abilities to see farther and observe the events unfolding inside the city. Although his vision was somewhat limited, it was enou

Chapter 252: "You steal the life out of me!"
The administrators and gods had convened in one place to investigate the individual responsible for tampering with Earth's purging system. They had initially waited patiently for Andy YDna's summons, but several seconds had already passed, and the elusive purger had yet to appear. The significant time difference between Earth and heaven meant that waiting for even a brief moment in heaven translated to hours on Earth. The delay in receiving the summons was causing irritation to mount among those gathered. One particular god, his patience worn thin, unleashed his frustration upon the system administrators, angels, and toads. "What is going on? How much longer must I endure this waiting?" he growled. As a god vented his frustration, the surroundings quaked, and those beneath him gasped for air, momentarily losing their ability to breathe due to the sheer force of his presence. "Please, remain calm," Lord Lintian urged, trying to maintain composure. He sighed while his hands were occu

Chapter 251: "Beware of Bugs and Errors"
Ainspenser couldn't comprehend why everyone was staring at them with evident dismay. Frustrated by the situation, she questioned, "Why are they acting like this?" Gaige Feryuson, however, merely let out a heavy sigh and chose to ignore her inquiry. The murmurs from the onlookers continued, with voices speculating, "Which side is he on?" In reality, Gaige didn't align himself with either side. He walked away from the gathering to avoid getting caught up in the brewing drama. As all eyes followed him, they were taken aback when Gaige's fist struck something that appeared invisible. A resounding noise filled the air, and an invisible figure was sent tumbling. The invisibility spell concealing Andy shattered upon impact with the wall. He struggled to regain his footing but couldn't utter a word. Gaige reappeared in front of Andy, aiming his gun at Andy's forehead and firing without uttering a word. The sudden gunshot sent shockwaves through the onlookers, rendering them momentarily sp

Chapter 250: "WARNING: You got scammed!"
The Central Plaza was enveloped in the suffocating aura of death. Purgers opened fire fervently, even before they touched the ground. Fortunately, the purgeable beings were ready. Those with the ability to create shields covered those charging forward, allowing the others to engage the purgers immediately. As the two sides collided, the area became drenched in blood, and the acrid scent of death hung heavily in the air. The triumphant shouts of the enemy were nauseating, but no one wavered. "We can win!" declared one of the leaders upon seeing the purgers sustain more damage. The initial elation and confidence of the purgers quickly dwindled as the purgeable beings gained the upper hand. No one had expected these typically fearful and feeble individuals to respond with such ferocity. It caused the purgers to feel iffy about the sudden change. Also, the purgers' morale declines even more as they worry that they might not respawn as a result of the system's ongoing failure to co

Chapter 249: "Why are you targeting me?"
Except for Gaige and Ainspenser, everyone had gathered at Yawyklim Central Plaza. It was an unprecedented occurrence during the hunt, where opposing sides engaged in direct combat instead of scattered skirmishes. Purgers typically operated individually or in small groups, and rarely had they united en masse. On the other hand, purgeable beings were usually helpless and unprepared during the hunt. However, this time, they had learned how the hunt worked and gained the knowledge of how to combat purgers. The fear and vulnerability that once filled their eyes had given way to determination and a will to survive through their own strength and abilities. All of these changes had come about due to the efforts of both Andy and Gaige. Gaige had successfully persuaded the purgeable beings to cooperate, while Andy had effectively led the purgers. Even the angels observing from above found themselves anticipating the outcome of this rare event. With no clear distinction between hunters and pre

Chapter 248: "Are we still playing?"
A gentle breeze carried an oily scent through the air. Distant roars, initially faint and unclear, gradually intensified in volume and significance. Suddenly, Gaige Feryuson found himself in an open, expansive area that left him feeling uneasy. Perplexed by his circumstances, Gaige slumped down, gazing vacantly at the sky while making feeble attempts to grasp at the mud beneath him. "Why am I in the mud?" he wondered, his words being spoken with his mouth but only echoing within his mind. As he continued to survey the peculiar scene, he struggled to recall what he might have forgotten. Just then, a powerful gust of wind tore through the space with swiftness. However, the wind seemed to be coming from his eyes, so he turned his head to the side to shield himself from it. Gaige's face stung as the mud struck him with force. It was at that moment that the open space abruptly transformed into a confined area, resembling a dungeon. "Haha! Seriously." He laughed as he finally realize
