94 Gate of truth (2)
The president watched with amazement as Constantine faded from sight and reappeared out of the plane facing the illusory door that had appeared, the door gave off an ancient powerful aura obscure drawings and writings dotted the gate.
Makarov who was stationed outside watched this scene calmly, he had already guessed Constantine would not let go of this opportunity and would try to advance when he was still around, after all, Constantine might be short of friends of friends but he was abundant in enemies, sure enough, Makarov could feel countless malicious sights falling in this direction apparently they also sensed the situation here.
Constantine during his breakthrough scoured his soul removing all binding contracts on his person, these contracts were the source of the malicious sights, the contracts were his source of protection, most of his foes had been tricked into signing binding agreements with him and now that he was releasing the contracts himself they naturally wanted their sweet revenge.
Megatron also noticed some sights heading his way apparently hoping waiting for him to attack after all it was a well known fact that he and Constantine did not see eye to eye, but the truth privy to a few was that they were brothers, twins to be in fact, a very long time ago when they were still little mortal on a small middle ages plane, the plane happened to be unlucky and was involved in the whirlpool between paradise and hell, most inhabitants died leaving only 2 orphans alive, who were stained with the breath of paradise and hell, Michael and Lucifer were the ones in charge of the battle in that area and they noticed Metatron and Constantine, a shocking truth not known to many was that Michael and Lucifer were also twin brothers, maybe out of sentiment or some other obscure reason Michael wanted to adopt the two brothers but Lucifer who was also present perhaps out of spite, jealousy or whatever emotion blessed Constantine with hell affinity and sent him out of that plane to fend for himself while announcing to the world that Constantine was his.
Michael was furious but had no choice but to take Megatron and leave as a fight with Lucifer at that time would destroy their newly created truce and send the two forces back into the eternal frenzy of war which the forces of paradise had no intention of doing at that moment.
Although they had their differences Megatron was delighted Constantine was finally advancing, the advancement meant the only barrier from him becoming a paragon was going to be loose, although as the head of paradise he could exert paragon level power but that was only when he was in paradise his true level was that of level 5.
Kaiser on the other hand in the past millennia had instead broken through and become a paragon which was why she threatened Megatron’s status, Constantine’s close involvement with hell and the numerous contracts Constantine had kept on entering into was affecting Megatron normally such a connection shouldn’t matter but when it involved breaking through to become a paragon flaws like that mattered, normally the plan given by his mentor and adoptive father Michael was to use paradise immense energy and authority to slowly grind away and fix whatever flaws the connection had brought but Kaiser ambition had put Megatron on immense pressure and he was not sure if he would have enough time to fix his flaws and break through, the only way to solve the problem was if Constantine was dead or if Constantine broke through himself, their occultic connection was already very weak and the sublimation of a level 4 break through would break whatever little bond was left freeing Megatron from being influenced by Constantine involvement with hell, And so the last thing Megatron would do was to intervene in Constantine’s breakthrough.
Constantine was walking slowly advancing firmly towards the direction of the gate, a breakthrough like this couldn’t be stopped only a paragon level attack could pass through the different numerous dimensions and timelines and destroy the individual who was breaking through, any other attack would not even affect the breakthrough process it would only pass through the area like an illusory phantom, once the process started it could not be stopped except by paragons but even then they would have to endure some backlash, the process of a level 4 breakthrough involved not the origin of the plane or universe but the collective consciousness of the whole void.
It wasn’t that those enemies did not have a way to get paragon level objects to attack but that those who had the capability saw Makarov floating quietly in front of the core world Constantine was breaking through too close to the world and a paragon level attack to stop the breakthrough would undoubtedly affect the world which Makarov would definitely not allow, their only choice was to wait for his breakthrough to be over and then they could attack.
.....
They could only watch as Constantine opened the gate and walked slowly inside, the flow of time inside the gate and outside was vastly different, an individual could experience several lifetimes in the process of communicating with the truth but it would only take a moment to those waiting outside. The atmosphere slowly changed as they waited with bated breath for him to emerge, but seconds passed and there was still no sign of the sorcerer instead the gate was slowly vanishing, although it seemed the sorcerer had failed in breaking through and was destroyed by the truth, but there were very few idiots present they all knew it was most likely the sorcerer had found some way to stealthily leave immediately the breakthrough was over.
The malicious gazes received back their attention as they cursed and searched the surroundings trying to find any sight of the sorcerer, after searching with no result, a dark scaled demon appeared heading for the core world apparently not satisfied wanting to find the trace of the sorcerer in the world, a cold ‘hmph’ resounded and the flying demon stiffened before turning into ash drifting with the void currents. That scene scared back others with no good intention and they quickly left the area to find Constantine elsewhere.
