Every motion and movement was being secretly tracked. Ramiel was not happy getting abducted, but entering the tenth realm has certain restrictions; entering any of the realms needs authorization from the ruler of the domain, unlike the Third Primordial True Dragon named Trazgallen Villmarine Ber'git, who resides in the eleventh realm and has no restrictions because they are not bound by the rules set by one of the two archons at the divided Dereliquit Regnum.
Irles was very aware that certain situations might unexpectedly happen when they were outside Sheol, even in the small garrison city that Ramiel created, it might be a challenge but she trusted Ramiel and her instincts to handle any unforeseen circumstances that may arise. Ramiel's strategic planning and leadership skills have proven invaluable in the past, giving Irles confidence in their ability to navigate any challenges that come their way.
The sleeping spell the adductors used was strong enough to render her completely unconscious, leaving her vulnerable, but the enemy wasn't aware or too lazy to double-check the people around their main target; Ramiel was just another name for them, thinking that the stories around this white-haired young man were exaggerated like what most nobles and aristocrats would do to boost their inflated pride and ego.
The stories around Ramiel were so absurd that they were too good to be true. Tales that he can summon vast armies with just a simple command; he can cast simultaneous spells without
Restriction, and he could even control the elements at will. Little did they know, Ramiel's powers were far beyond what they could imagine, and he was biding his time, waiting for the perfect moment to reveal his true plan.
Some might see his plan as stupid and reckless, hearing his plan for the first time would seem to be arrogant and overly ambitious.
However, it wasn't that simple, Ramiel was always like this even when he was a young lad. His actions might be unconventional and really hard to understand, and at times they seemed to be pointless and just for show. But Ramiel always had a method to his madness, and his ultimate goal was much grander than anyone could anticipate.
That is why he was able to achieve this: a world ruled by controlling power and having authority was his ultimate vision for every living being in this world. He has vital information that even those who were part of the collective could never gain access to; this was information that was restricted to all of the collective.
Something was protecting this vital information; even Beta attempted many times to gain access to this peculiar memory, but each attempt was met with a formidable barrier that seemed impenetrable. Despite his relentless efforts, the truth remained elusive, leaving Beta frustrated and determined to uncover the mystery at any cost.
The four conscious links that Ramiel created were for this reason; he established these four separate conscious rooms, but only one room can be accessed by the collective, the other three were protected by one of his other personalities, who was fiercely guarding the memories within. The barrier to accessing these rooms was not just physical, but also psychological, as each personality held a piece of the puzzle.
He made sure that his grip and control over his other personalities would never waver, knowing that their cooperation was crucial in maintaining his sanity and protecting the memories he deemed too painful to access. Ramiel's intricate system of conscious links served as a safeguard against potential threats, ensuring that his past remained safely locked away from prying eyes. Ramiel was willing to go to great lengths to ensure that the truth was hidden within his own mind.
He was still the biological human son of Samuel Garcia, a known scoundrel. Ramiel's entire being and personality were created by both his parents, and knowing this the dark evil was lingering. Despite his inner turmoil, the young Ramiel tried his best to live a normal life with his human mother, Amelia. He went to school, made friends, and even gained a new family that was Grandpa Tang and Grandma Mao Liu Chen. But his life was always complicated and filled with bad memories, as he struggled to keep his dark side hidden from those closest to him. He feared that if they found out the truth about his true nature, they would reject him, and he would be left alone.
Beta's curiosity only grew stronger as he realized the magnitude of what was being hidden from them. One of his personas was to guard information that he deemed important and too sensitive to be shared with the collective, like his fear and sadness, because those who are connected to him will also share this burden, and he does not want anybody to feel his inner demons.
Ramiel understood the potential consequences of sharing such personal emotions with others, especially considering the interconnected nature of their consciousness. By creating individual guardians for specific information, he sought to protect both himself and his fellow conscious links from unnecessary pain and turmoil.
Beta was fully aware of what was happening while Ramiel and Irles's bodies were asleep; they had been surreptitiously taken to the far-off huge-dimensional portal that connected all the realms by the bunch of kidnappers. The gate will only lead to the opposite side if the user does not have the authority of the ruler of the place they are travelling in. Only then can it be explicitly accessed toward another location.
It was a magnificent structure, but without magical energy to activate it, it was just another abandoned useless gate, similar to the Gate of the Sun at Tiwanakuin, the neighbouring Bolivia on Earth.
As the abductors opened the gate, somebody came out and greeted and congratulated the abductors on their fine work. It was a middle-aged man about 60 years old, but he had a lean and toned physical body. He was about 6 feet 5 inches tall, bald, and had red eyes and a beard that was reaching 4 inches extending right below his chin, and he was wearing a military-inspired uniform. and both of his hands were replaced with machine-interfaced prosthetics, and it was made of mithril, the same-looking arm that Warlord Tharkeroth Dallmethad has.
The man's authoritative presence commanded respect as he surveyed the scene with a sharp gaze, exuding an air of power and control. His voice was deep and commanding, sending shivers down the spines of those around him.
Ramiel could feel that this man was stronger than him, both physically and mentally. The man's aura seemed to radiate strength and experience, and he knew he needed to tread carefully in his presence.
Ramiel noticed the subtle scars on the man's hands and arms, hinting at a history of intense battles and conflicts. Despite his intimidating appearance, there was a sense of honour and duty that emanated from him, making Ramiel realize he was in the presence of a seasoned warrior.
This was unexpected and not within his expectations, But the distinguished man has no information about Ramiel's true ability, so as for now, he can only wait, The man ordered the abductors to bring them inside the gate, where Ramiel would soon discover the true extent of the man's power and influence. The tension in the air was palpable as they entered the gates, unsure of what awaited them inside.
It was a short trip, but the smell of the tenth realm was heavy and filled with smoke from all the industrial factories. Unlike in Sheol, which uses magical tools and tamed animals for everyday jobs and activities like farming, manufacturing, forging and construction, in the Military Empire of Gremore machines are the primary source of power and production. The contrast between the two realms was striking, with Sheol's reliance on magic and nature standing in stark contrast to Gremore's industrialized approach.
The distinguished man was the last to come out of the gate, and he ordered his officers to implement the usual protocol for handling guests. A female officer gave a salute and addressed the man as Commander Haroun Greiss, one of the four Guardians under Quen Sheaira Liluth Demiurgos.
