Chapter 298: Anjell Intervention Recap: Tiny Human Footprints...65 Million Years Ago?

"Know that Allah(God) revives the earth after its death. We have certainly made the signs clear for you so perhaps you will understand.

...

Know that this worldly life is no more than play, amusement, luxury, mutual boasting, and competition in wealth and children. This is like rain that causes plants to grow, to the delight of the planters. But later the plants dry up and you see them wither, then they are reduced to chaff. And in the Hereafter there will be either severe punishment or forgiveness and pleasure of Allah(God), whereas the life of this world is no more than the delusion of enjoyment.

...

No calamity or blessing occurs on earth or in yourselves without being written in a Record before We bring it into being. This is certainly easy for Allah(God).

We let you know this so that you neither grieve over what you have missed nor boast over what He has granted you. For Allah(God) does not like whoever is arrogant, boastful-

Those who are stingy and promote stinginess among people. And whoever turns away should know that Allah(God) alone is truly the Self-Sufficient, Praiseworthy." -Al-Hadid 57:17, 57:20, 57:22-25

[65 Million Years Before Leviathan’s Invasion]

{North America}

Running on four legs through the vast, dense shrubbery, one of the first primate like species, the Plesiadapis, pokes it’s little head out from a bush.

From where it is, the sight of the huge orange half setting sun hidden behind the beautiful blue ocean catches the eyes of the earliest version of the primate species.

The relaxing sounds of waves make the warm blooded heartbeat slow down and the sensitive nostrils reacting to the smell of salt in the air, making the mammal more curious.

The furry beast slowly and carefully uses it’s four limbs to make it’s way towards the waves.

The large crash from a single wave startles the creature and he dashes back for the comfort of it’s safety bush.

Primordial temptations overpower the sense of fear as a few less alarming waves beckons one of the most distant evolutionary relatives to humans.

Being one million years seperated from the extinction of the dinosaurs, the ocean waters are a sign of safety and sanguinity to a majority of land species who survived the tribulations caused by the newest "update" to their celestial body.

The small, mysterious "ape/dog" leaps forward using it’s two hind legs but lands on all fours in the shallow water right before the wave retreats away.

Thinking the wave is another animal and the early mental logic of the simple beast has made the "monkey/dog" believe it asserted his dominance on the ocean. The small creature chases after the tide, but the poor thing is unprepared for the retaliation from the cruel but protective ocean.

The Plesiadapis is engulfed by large crashing wave.

However, due to it’s adaptive ability to swim, the earliest primate ancestor resurfaces and tries to escape to dry land.

Unfortunately for the little guy trying to make it back home, a small human hand gets a hold of one of it’s hind legs.

The helpless Mammal without any defense to protect itself tries to shriek, but chokes on the salt water that had aided in baiting the prey.

There are a couple underwater muffled snaps.

With the final sliver of orange sun left over the horizon, above the surface of the water, a tiny hue of red accompanies the waves as they crash down on the sand.

There is the disturbing sound of crunching and chewing coming from close by.

The tide pulls back in but the next thrown wave slams over, and erases a small human footprint walking away from the ocean’s domain.

[Recap Start]

Katsu looks in the direction his teacher is fixed on and lets out a silent scream as he falls backwards from his one knee to his ass.

A smaller version of an Iceman but with only one eye, its left eye, with a pink and diamond checkerboard pattern eye. Where its right eye should’ve been and a chunk of its temple and forehead, looks as if something or someone with claws tore its eye out, not caring about the Iceman. The rest of the head is almost pristine surrounding its glistening eye, moving left and right.

The purple and pink, diamond checkerboard pattern that covers the whole eyeball, is the exact replica of the one Leviathan had on the night he started to shatter humanity’s existence.

Unlike their enemy, the texture of this Iceman looks less sharp to the touch and is an incredibly darker "dead" shade of blue. It has small chunks missing all over its torso, arms and legs visibly missing and it sits quietly in an oddly fitting elegant reading chair. Its head is down with a book in its lap as if it was reading.

The Iceman then closes what it was reading and slowly puts the book on a side table. Each movement causes slight damage to the "Elder Iceman".

As his hand moves away from the book, a symbol ☯️ can be seen on the spine of the cover. On the same side table are 4 other books. Each with a single symbol on the spine: ✝️ ✡️ ☪️ ☸️

...

Daisuki: "K- Katsu I haven’t got a single idea what’s going on, but this thing...This thing says it’s our ’Creator.’"

...

...

Daisuki: "Even if it’s not physical pain, whatever he’s going through is probably even more confusing. As for your second question, believe it or not, those frozen vessels only last 120,000,000 years, and the strength left in this one isn’t enough to control 3 eye users and force one to use their ability. This Iceman is on literal borrowed time and only has enough energy for a ’blessing’ after its connection with me."

...

...

Daisuki (with a reassuring smile): "You guys are my little brothers, because of you and Saku, I now have more ’Treasures’ than anyone could ever hope for. I would rather be dead than live having lost what I view as my treasure."

The cracks on the old creature slowly grow progressively more vertical. The eye drops a single tear that, once it falls off its cheek, turns into a gently floating snowflake.

...

...

Daisuki (EI): "No, but I’ve been watching through all your eyes, as well as that Commander Gray, his replacement Nephilim, and all the others who have those ’eye beings’ that were recreated in the image of the ’Anjell Eyes’. Knowing your mentor’s ability was the only possible way to make this meeting possible, I asked my ’Anjell Eye’ to use its ability to connect to Gray’s subconscious. To make sure, the mentor Daisuki was matched with Saku, and you, Katsu, into the same ’Squad’. So I could give you this ’Communication Eye’ and bless your friend Saku with the ’Absorption Eye’.

...

...

Daisuki (EI): "Yes, Lilith is the ’name’ of my partner who helped me create the meteor that contained the genetic code for ’Intelligent Complex Life’. That same meteor crashed into your planet and was the launching point for human evolution today!(looks at Katsu) It’s the very fact you both acknowledge your differences that end up drawing you two closer to each other.

Like your mentor relayed to you before, the reason I’ve brought you and Saku here is to ’bless’ your left ’Anjell Eyes’ as the new ’Communication Eye of Wisdom’ and his Anjell Eye is in the process of receiving a blessing as the newest ’Absorption Eye of Wisdom."

Katsu (suspicious): "Communication? Absorption? Are there any more of these ’Eyes of Wisdom’?"

Daisuki (EI): "Yes there are...were four. Now there are a total of three ’Anjel Eyes of Wisdom’.

Communication, Absorption, and Creation.

The fourth, the Destruction Eye is no longer in existence.

...

...

Saku’s eyes, again swell up seeing his beautiful version of his mother in the dream space, this time with only her left eye with the same pink and purple checkerboard pattern. Her right, the same green color as her son’s.

Saku is struggling to move towards her, flailing but not moving.

Saku: "Why do you look like-"

Saku’s Mom: "That’s a cute name, I hope you make her happy, Saku. My name is Lilith. Right now, as we speak, your mentor and your ’complimentary force’, Katsu, are speaking to my partner, Yahweh. You don’t need to talk and I apologize for deceiving you into thinking I am your mother, Sweetie, but this is the easiest way to convey this message to you so you’d understand the ’blessing’ you are receiving."

Saku: "...’Blessing’?"

Lilleth: "Yes, the eyes you humans have referred to as ’IceEyes’, are actually life forms that were recreated in the image of the ’The Eyes of Wisdom’ or ’Anjell Eyes’."

...

...

Lilith: "The ’Communication Eye’, the basic ability to communicate without a language barrier."

...

...

Lilith: "The Absorption Eye, being able to take in the information as it’s presented and the ability to recreate or improve what one’s learned."

...

...

Lilith: "Those are the only two Eyes of Wisdom that were left in the possession of Yahweh."

...

...

Lilith: "However, the one who started this whole mess, is none other than the monster you’ve appropriately titled ’Leviathan’. He’s the one who now has the ’Creation Eye’."

...

...

Lilith: "The final ’Eye of Wisdom’, the ’Eye of Destruction’ no longer exists or will ever exist again. On the official day of Leviathan’s physical birth, it was used to try and destroy him.

Unfortunately, the ’Eyes of Wisdom’ can’t be used to harm each other, so it destroyed the dead planet in hopes the timing was right and the large force of explosion would end the creature."

...

...

Lilith: "Unfortunately, my sacrifice was only enough for Yahweh to escape and eventually launch our meteor containing the resources and genetic coding needed to destroy most of the life above sea level and fuse with living marine life. That genetic fusion would eventually evolve into intelligent life we made, together. Our treasure we worked so hard for would have been lost because of that beast. But I would rather be dead than live, having lost what I view as my treasure."

Saku looks at the alien pretending to be his mother then at the lonely alien species standing on top of its "ship", releasing the 6 mile wide space boulder. It starts floating towards a slowly rotating Earth with Saku and Lilith on it.

Lilith: "Leviathan was able to cocoon himself into a protective casing just in time and use his time to create as many replicas of the only other species it knows about."

As the meteor gets sucked into Earth’s gravitational pull, Lilith turns and puts her hands on Saku’s shoulders and Saku is unable to look at the impersonation of his mother in the eye.

Lilith: "There’s only a short amount of time left, Saku. So please listen to me, you don’t need to look at me if you wish."

She bites her lip, trying to hold back tears but from her cracking voice, Saku can’t help but look at the woman NOW with two green eyes like his mother, crying.

Lilith: "But please, do everything in your power, along with your friend, Katsu, to defeat Leviathan and reclaim the Creation Eye of Wisdom. Even if you two choose not to transfer it into one of yourselves, from the pleas of a distressed mother, don’t let that monster destroy my children.

Please, Saku..."

Saku, hearing that takes a second and hugs the crying woman/alien. As the meteor begins flaming up in the Earth’s atmosphere he gives the consciousness for the mother of humanity a final goodbye in the blinding whiteness of the burning meteor.

Saku: "I promise, I’ll make you proud, Ma."
