During this month, humanity had not been idle either. Using the method researched by Rig, they began reviving humans one after another.
Rig was very shrewd. Fearing humans would revive people without restraint, he researched the Apocalypse Virus. Only those who died from it would be resurrected.
Although the Imperial Demon Army after the apocalypse was not included in this, Rig promised to help resurrect them if the power of the sin keys allowed.
The light energy collected over countless years by the Progenitor and the other angels from ancient times was naturally immense.
However, according to the beliefs of Guren and the others, many ambitious members of the Hiiragi Family would certainly not be on that list when the time came.
Two more days passed.
Luke looked up at Yuichiro in the air. Yuichiro's aura had changed dramatically compared to before. His ears had become pointed, and his skin had become extremely smooth. Compared to the simple-minded Yuichiro of the past, Angel Yuichiro now exuded a sense of nobility.
"You're here."
Luke turned his head and revealed a smile.
The newcomer was naturally Krul.
Krul walked to Luke's side, glanced at the nearly completed transformation of Yuichiro in the air, then looked towards Ashera, who was not far away, pierced by chains with his eyes tightly shut.
Ashera had also grown three pairs of wings on his back now. Otherwise, his other features hadn't changed much; it was still that beautiful face.
"I didn't expect it to take them this long. Rig clearly said before that this process wouldn't take much time."
Krul said casually.
Luke raised an eyebrow and leaned in close to Krul.
"Isn't that good? We get to have our own little world for the two of us."
Krul smiled, grabbed Luke's face with both hands, made a random funny face, and then let go.
"Originally, we should have been like them too."
Krul was certain that Luke must have done something to prevent her from being transformed into an angel.
Luke rubbed his reddened cheek and suddenly asked, "Krul, what are your plans next?"
Krul was puzzled, not knowing why Luke suddenly asked this, but she still thought carefully, her tone carrying a hint of playfulness.
"My brother is resurrected. Besides us, there are only angels and humans left. The two of us, as outsiders, can only hide and live in some corner of the world."
Luke stroked his chin, appearing to seriously consider the feasibility.
"Then wouldn't we two old immortals really live until the seas run dry and the rocks crumble?"
Krul placed a hand on her hip with a helpless expression.
"Who knows? Since I didn't become an angel, you'll have to be prepared for me to suck your blood for a lifetime."
Luke noticed that Krul was unusually aggressive today. Usually, he was the one saying such things.
Luke asked curiously, "Are you disappointed that you didn't become an angel?"
Krul snorted coldly, seeming not to care at all.
In the past, her sole desire was to resurrect her brother Ashera. Now that this goal was about to be achieved, she felt that as long as Luke accompanied her in the future, traveling around the world would be enough. What race she was held no meaning.
Luke understood Krul's thoughts and suddenly asked again, "If we could go to worlds from comics or novels in the future, would you be willing to go with me?"
Krul, thinking Luke was just asking casually, nodded after a moment's thought.
"Sounds like it would be an interesting experience."
Luke's lips curved upwards, hearing the answer he had hoped for.
Just as Krul finished speaking, Yuichiro's eyes in the air suddenly opened.
Then, the chains connecting the angels instantly snapped and disintegrated.
The angels opened their eyes one after another, initially looking bewildered. However, soon, sensing the changes in themselves, all the angels began examining their transformations with great curiosity.
Yuichiro was the same. At this moment, he was not only Yuichiro but also 'Mikael.'
Yuichiro tried flapping his wings, successfully hovering in the air. After leaving the Resurrection Array, the array itself changed.
The patterns on the array began to move, scrambled, and rearranged their positions. When they finally stopped, a flash of white light passed.
The seven sin keys, which still had some power left, transformed into streams of light and merged into the array. Soon, under the gaze of all the angels, a figure coalesced from the array.
"Progenitor!"
"King!"
That figure was the Progenitor—Sigmado.
All Vampires and demons retained their memories, while those who were angels in ancient times also fused with their ancient memories.
Thinking of how Lord Sigmado had worked for tens of thousands of years to save them, these beings felt sincere respect.
As soon as Sigmado opened his eyes, he saw the vast crowd of angels below. For a moment, he was dazed. Although most faces were unfamiliar, he still found those familiar ones among them.
The next second, two figures flew to Sigmado's side. They exchanged a glance, their expressions complex, but they still opened their mouths and called out.
"King!"
Sigmado smiled and shook his head.
"I caused such a tragedy. I am no longer worthy of being king. Like you, I am just an ordinary angel."
That's right. Upon this resurrection, Sigmado also shed his identity as an immortal, returning to being an angel.
Rig still firmly shouted, "No! Your responsibility was such. No one blames you. Only you are qualified to be our king."
The memories of Rig and Urd fused, allowing him to see things more clearly. Although he would no longer blindly follow as before, he still acknowledged Sigmado's contributions to the angel race.
Sigmado smiled self-deprecatingly. He now wanted to shed these identities of Progenitor and King.
In other words, he wanted to retire.
However, Rig and Ulder seemed to have no intention of letting him have his way.
Sigmado then noticed Yuichiro's complex expression nearby. He gave him a gentle smile but did not step forward to speak.
He knew Yuichiro was deeply conflicted. The experience of fusing with Mikael's memories was different from observing them as a bystander. At this moment, Yuichiro didn't know how to face Sigmado.
Below, the first thing Ashera did upon waking was to search for Krul's figure. He remembered everything; the memories of angel, Vampire, and demon had merged into one.
However, after finding Krul, Ashera couldn't help but be very puzzled.
"Krul, how did you..."
Before he could finish, Krul, seeing her brother truly alive again, stepped forward and tightly hugged him.
"Welcome back, brother."
In this situation, Ashera didn't want to ruin the mood. He patted Krul's back gently.
"Yes, I'm back, Krul."
Soon, the two separated and began talking.
Luke watched the heartwarming scene between the siblings and couldn't help but smile knowingly.
Luke waved his hand to summon the Light Screen.
The Light Screen now was vastly different from before. Not only was the UI more technologically advanced, but the content on it had also increased immeasurably.
Miku's image popped up and inquired.
"Welcome, esteemed Heavenly Dao Agent, Luke."
...Over a month ago, Rig sought out Luke.
"The plan is about to begin. Now you should give me those five sin keys, right? I'll resurrect Ashera first."
Luke hesitated for a moment, looked at the uncompleted ultimate task, and sighed.
He had known for a while that Rig would come to him recently to demand the sin keys, as humanity had already given all their sin keys to Rig.
"Where did you put those two sin keys?"
Hearing this, Rig couldn't help but frown and became alert.
"Why are you asking?"
Luke looked innocent and answered honestly.
"Rig, why don't you let me play with those two sin keys too?"
"Are you joking?"
Rig felt even more that something was wrong and began to suspect Luke had ulterior motives.
Seeing Rig's defensive posture as if guarding against a thief, Luke scoffed and handed the five sin keys from his chest to Rig.
Seeing the five sin keys right in front of him being offered so openly by Luke, Rig hesitated for a moment about whether to take them.
Luke wore a mischievous smile.
"What? Afraid I'll suddenly activate a sin key and kill you?"
As he spoke, Luke actually activated one sin key. A terrifying sense of crisis filled Rig's entire body.
Rig's pupils contracted. They were underground in Sanguinem. Given the power of the sin keys, he had nowhere to hide.
However, soon, steeling his heart, Rig stared directly into Luke's eyes and reached for the five sin keys.
Luke allowed Rig to take the five sin keys.
Only after Rig held the sin keys in his hand did he breathe a sigh of relief. He gave Luke a deep look, then turned and left.
"You really are unpredictable."
Luke shrugged and walked in the opposite direction of Rig.
His task panel had also changed.
Task: Collect Seven sin keys (7/7)
If Luke guessed correctly, although this task had no time limit, once the resurrection was complete, the seven sin keys would disappear, and the task would fail.
At that time, he would only possess the Golden finger authority of the seraph of the end world and would be unable to return to the Main World. Although Krul was here, he still had many anime series in the Main World whose continuations he hadn't seen. Not seeing the ending of the Little Detective would become a lifelong regret.
So... Rig, who had left, did not notice that an extremely small magic sword was quietly following him.
Rig brought those five sin keys back to the laboratory and, sure enough, placed them with the other two sin keys.
Seeing this scene through the magic sword, Luke couldn't help but smirk.
Rig, you won't always be there, right?
Afterwards, when Rig left to teach humans the resurrection method, Luke began acting as a Stealthy Ninja.
The magic sword provided a God's-eye View. Luke, like playing a stealth game, easily infiltrated and sneak-attacked, knocking out the guard, Bastia.
Having the Sixth Progenitor Bastia guard inside Sanguinem was already cautious enough, but Luke still succeeded.
Luke grabbed Bastia's hand, deactivated the protective shield, and touched the seven sin keys.
As soon as he picked up the seven sin keys, Luke felt the surroundings turn black and white... On a road in a certain country in the Main World.
An out-of-control truck was swerving erratically down the road.
As luck would have it, there was a little girl ahead.
And as luck would have it again, there was a passionate young man by the roadside.
And as luck would have it yet again, the young man saw the truck heading towards the girl, so he pushed the girl away and was killed by the truck himself.
After the young man died, a wisp of soul floated out of his body and landed in the truck driver's hand.
The truck driver smiled and said to himself.
"Great, another job done! Hmm... This quality of soul can only be a Sub Heavenly Dao Agent. It'll have to do. Let's send you to another world for training first! This one! Digimon!"
At that moment, a Light Screen lit up in front of the truck driver.
"Oh, Luke has cleared it. Now I can slack off! Time to pick him up!"
Then the truck and driver vanished into thin air, leaving only the young man's body and a bewildered little girl on the spot... Luke looked at the world around him turning black and white and freezing, feeling strange.
I completed the task, so what now?
He tried to summon the Light Screen but found no response.
Toot!
A whistle suddenly sounded by Luke's ear, and he also felt something poke his cheek.
He was startled, quickly turned his head, and stepped back a few paces.
He saw a girl who looked mischievous and clever, holding a Spring Whistle in her mouth and two Glow Sticks in her hands.
Luke looked closely. Wasn't this the naive and sweet Golden finger from the Main World?
Toot! Toot!
The girl blew the whistle twice more, looking delighted.
The Spring Whistle vanished into thin air. The Golden finger spoke: "Congratulations, congratulations, Luke! You've cleared it! Now you are officially a Heavenly Dao Agent!"
Before Luke could speak, the Golden finger pointed at him. Immediately, Luke saw a white light strike him. He felt his soul ascend, and then the Light Screen reappeared before him, now with many more functions.
Such... such tacky special effects.
"I know you have many questions now, but don't question them yet."
Luke felt the Golden finger before him had a different personality from the one he remembered.
Cyclical Personality?
The Golden finger paid no attention to Luke's feelings.
"Let me give you a general overview of the situation first..."
Over ten minutes later, Luke finally understood the situation.
So, the Old Heavenly Dao of the Main World retired. Before retiring, like a workplace mentor, he had to train the new Golden finger for a while. Thus, the new Golden finger had to observe humans for a period and write a report for the Old Heavenly Dao to check.
During this observation period, the new Golden finger came up with an idea.
If I have subordinates, can't I slack off!
Action followed thought. The new Golden finger began finding some 'accidentally deceased' destined individuals to start cultivating subordinates.
According to the plan, each Sub-world would have a Sub Heavenly Dao Agent, and the Main Heavenly Dao Agent would be the only one, equivalent to a chief manager. This way, the new Golden finger would only need to manage the Main World.
And Luke was currently the only one who had successfully passed the task. The other candidates could only become Sub Heavenly Dao Agents.
The most excessive part was that Luke only now remembered the memories about 'mother.' The mothers of all the candidates were played by this person!
Hearing this, Luke couldn't help but twitch his lips uncontrollably, almost unable to hold back.
After thinking for a moment, he asked somewhat puzzledly, "Didn't you say each Sub-world has a Golden finger? Why do you need to find Sub Heavenly Dao Agents?"
The Golden finger before him looked as if it were obvious.
"I lied to you. Oh, no, not exactly a lie. Once an Agent is found, doesn't that make them the Sub Heavenly Dao?"
Luke:...
"Anyway, that's how it is. From now on, these Sub-worlds are up to you. Didn't you want to travel to other worlds? Now you have no restrictions. You can add restrictions yourself if you want."
