Chapter 437 - Side : DemiG.o.d Of Eclipses And DemiG.o.ddess Of Dawns


-----


In the Divine Realm of Agatheina, the Vampire G.o.ddess of Blood, the G.o.ds that had been supporting Kireina and her Empire were having a small meeting.


"Although I do not want to force you into making your siblings join us, Morpheus… I do think that it should be a good idea to have them all together with us. This way, we could ensure Kireina-sama safety even more…" said Agatheina, while sipping a gla.s.s of scarlet blood.


"Sigh… I know, Agatheina. And in fact, they would join us if I asked… but I do not want to abuse my sibling"s goodwill and force them to do things against their wills… I"m sure that the moment Kireina saves their people, they would gladly come and support her more openly" said Morpheus.


"We decided to come in here because we are next in the "list"… And we were not forced by anyone" said Marnet, the Beast DemiG.o.d of Canines.


"Indeed… Although I would also appreciate it if more demiG.o.ds or G.o.ds could join us… if we gather enough people, we might be even able to create a Pantheon… the first independent Pantheon in the Realm of Vida" said Maeralya, the Beast DemiG.o.ddess of Felines.


"Yes… To be honest, I have been thinking about it… Didn"t Kireina-sama family and servants were blessed by several other G.o.ds? Where are they? At this point they should know that we are supporting Kireina openly, they should join us…" said Levana, the Beast DemiG.o.ddess of Bats and Bat Beastmen.


"Hmm… That is a good point, Levana. Many G.o.ds have blessed Kireina"s family and her servants… they should be joining… unless they have done this in secret?" wondered Agatheina.


"In secret? You mean… Like they didn"t tell anyone in their pantheons?" asked Levana.


"Yeah… Well, we kind of did it in secret, right, Hodhyl?" asked Merveim, the Wyvern G.o.d of Strength.


"Not as much, the G.o.ds of our Pantheon already knew about our blessings, and seemed mostly neutral until Kireina appeared and made our blessed children her allies… Well, it"s not like we are blaming her, she has helped them greatly. After that, we began to get a bit ignored and treated badly by our siblings, so we ran away and came here, knowing that there were some G.o.ds directly support Kireina" said Hodhyl, giving a more detailed explanation of how things came to be.


"I see… well, didn"t one of Kireina"s children, Belle, just got blessed by two demiG.o.ds?" asked Levana.


"Yes, she did… I have never heard of such demiG.o.ds before, but by their names and t.i.tles, they seem to belong to the Central Continent Pantheon… it is quite baffling to think that those G.o.ds who are constantly plotting on killing Kireina-sama had decided to bless her children… there must be some scheme going on in there" said Agatheina.


"Well, if they try to do something to Belle-chan, Kireina-sama will do something similar that she did to Apollo, it will end up being beneficial even," said Maeralya.


"I suppose so… I can"t imagine getting on Kireina"s bad side and getting my soul bitten by her… it must hurt like h.e.l.l…" muttered Marnet.


"Hahaha! I would like to see that! She could even infect them with her own Soul like with Apollo, and end up brainwas.h.i.+ng them and slowly being a.s.similated by her! I would love to- Hm?"


"What"s wrong, grandmother?" asked Levana.


"Someone… is coming… two demiG.o.ds, from the outside, they"re standing right ahead of the barrier we had set up around the Grand Forest," said Agatheina, completely switching her behavior, becoming serious and composed.


"DemiG.o.ds? So, they cannot wait any longer, huh? War it is! If they are demiG.o.ds, I can handle them myself!" said Merveim, readying for battle.


"Wait, brother, calm yourself a little bit," said Hodhyl.


"I will go instead," said Agatheina.


"Grandmother, only you?! But you"re still a bit weakened by your wound!" said Levana.


"Don"t worry, If I can"t handle them, I will just escape and call for Merveim and Hodhyl" said Agatheina. She wanted to scout things out herself before risking the life of the other G.o.ds…


"Oh? You have changed, Agatheina… You have become more thoughtful of our safety?" asked Morpheus.


"No, it"s not like that. If the life of Merveim and Hodhyl are at risk, it would greatly weaken our "Pantheon", it is better for me, who is more experienced in scouting to go take a look, I have more Divine Energy as well than any of you" said Agatheina, opening a portal in her Divine Realm and coming outside with her flesh.


This would often be called "descending". When a G.o.d does not move through a Realm with their Divine Realms and appear in the flesh over the world. This state usually consumes a large amount of Divine Energy.


The only Realms where G.o.ds can walk more freely in their physical bodies are in "Higher Realms", places filled with Divine Energy, where mortals cannot survive and only Divine Existences such as Divine Beasts and Living Deities live.


Agatheina glanced from the inside of the barrier, glaring at the two figures who had decided to descend as well.


"They are wasting their Divine Energy quite leisurely there…"


Agatheina slowly approached them while being covered in her Divine Energy, which showed itself as dark red blood.


"You two! What business do you have here? If you dare cross the barrier only death awaits you!" asked Agatheina.


The two demiG.o.ds were covered in their own Divine Energy as well, and their physical appearance could be barely noticeable.


One demiG.o.d was bald, and shrouded in darkness and light, while the other seemed to be a demiG.o.ddess with wide hips and long hair, covered in orange and yellow light.


"Ah, I told you that we were being quite rash by coming like this, sister," said the demiG.o.d.


"But brother, how could we had come then? It would have been too suspicious if we contacted any of the G.o.ds through the Interdimensional Merchant Shop…" muttered the demiG.o.ddess.


"What business do you have with us? Speak!" said Agatheina, baring her fangs while controlling the blood around her, slowly forming spears.


"W-Wait, Agatheina-sama, right? Please, wait for a second… do not get us wrong! We are allies, friends!" said the demiG.o.d.


"I-Indeed! P-Please, we have come to serve Kireina-sama!" said the demiG.o.ddess.


"Serve… Kireina-sama?" asked Agatheina.


"Indeed! We have been "guided" by her through our dreams… it was a very pleasant dream, one that we had never had before!" said the demiG.o.d.


"That is right, Agatheina-sama! We have also blessed Kireina-sama child, Belle-chan. We are allies" said the demiG.o.ddess.


"A dream…? Guided? Well, I am glad that you recognize the greatness of Kireina-sama… but your words mean nothing without actions or proof of what you have done! If you blessed Belle-chan, then you two are the DemiG.o.d of Eclipses and the DemiG.o.ddess of Dawns?" asked Agatheina.


"Ah, how could I forget my manners? Yes, I am Bovdohr, the DemiG.o.d of Eclipses" said the demiG.o.d shrouded in darkness and dim light.


"And I am Nomera, the DemiG.o.ddess of Dawns… Just as we said earlier, we had found our true purpose in serving Kireina-sama through the wonderful prophetic dreams that she has given to us… we had been truly guided to her path!" said the demiG.o.ddess.


"We don"t have any intention of going back to Jupiter-sama Pantheon. Even if we are deemed as traitors" said the demiG.o.d.


Agatheina seemed surprised by these two demiG.o.ds that she had never heard about, who were talking as if Kireina had truly presented herself in their dreams and had guided them towards a path to greatness.


Agatheina decided to not do any rash decisions and communicate with the other G.o.ds. Morpheus seemed the most surprised, while Merveim and Hodhyl came out with a trial for them to show their true intentions.


"How about they do the same thing we did?" asked Merveim.


"You mean… Taking away a piece of their divinity?" asked Hodhyl.


"Yeah, why not?" said Marnet, agreeing.


"Hmm… I wonder if they could still betray us later on though?" wondered Levana.


"There might be the possibility… but, for now, they would be weakened," said Morpheus.


The G.o.ds agreed with this decision and communicated it to Agatheina, who released a slight chuckle.


"Alright, you two. There is but a condition for you two to join our pantheon and finally serve Kireina-sama herself! Give up two large pieces of your soul, your divinity to Kireina-sama!" said Agatheina, ordering the two demiG.o.ds by glancing at them from above.


The two demiG.o.ds began to chat between themselves.


"Oh? That"s it?" said the demiG.o.d.


"It doesn"t seem bad at all… I thought we would have to give up our entire physical bodies… but this is way more generous as a "condition", brother" said the demiG.o.ddess.


"Indeed, Kireina-sama is a benevolent master," said the demiG.o.d.


"You two didn"t even doubt for a second…? Well, you can"t just give the pieces as they are, you must convert them into elixirs first" said Agatheina.


The two demiG.o.ds quickly extracted a large piece of their divinities, weakening themselves to prove their loyalty, and then each one created an Elixir with them. The divinity pieces were dissolved into dew-like liquid substances and sealed inside a flask made out of divine gla.s.s.


Divine Gla.s.s was a special material that could contain almost any liquid in the world, but after its seal was undone and the contents that saved were consumed, it would turn into dust.


"Here, please, give this to Kireina-sama as fast as possible. I would be delighted if she could drink my divinity and become stronger through it" said the demiG.o.d.


"Yes, please, as fast as possible," said the demiG.o.ddess.


Agatheina received the two Elixirs, one was bright orange, while the other was almost completely dark, while releasing some strange and ominous white light.


"It seems that you two are fully compromised into serving Kireina-sama, please, feel yourselves at home," said Agatheina with a bright smile, opening a portal to her Divine Realm.


The two demiG.o.ds were greeted by another five G.o.ds, Merveim, Hodhyl, Morpheus, Marnet, and Maeralya.


"Oh my, such a small group, I suppose were one of the first to join?" said Nomera, the demiG.o.ddess of Dawns as she revealed her physical appearance. She resembled a beautiful and voluptuous woman, with wide hips and a generous chest. Her skin was completely bright gold, and her hair s.h.i.+ned brightly like the sun. She had two golden eyes and her head had an arc of light resembling the dawn of the sun over the horizon.


"My fellow G.o.ds, you too serve Kireina-sama? It is a pleasure to meet all of you" said Bovdohr, the DemiG.o.d of Eclipses. He resembled a youthful man, his skin was completely dark on his right side, and completely yellow on his left side. He had no eyes and his head was bald. There was an arc of light and darkness, resembling an eclipse hovering over his bald head. He seemed particularly creepy, his appearance reminding Morpheus and the others of the appearance of Demon G.o.ds.


"Yes, yes, welcome to our Pantheon. We are still quite a small group, but we are working hard to protect Kireina-sama and her Empire. Most of our children live in there now, so it is our duty" said Morpheus.


"How wonderful… I wonder if we could make our own children so Kireina-sama can take care of them?" asked Nomera.


"Sister, I don"t think that talking about that is a good topic…" muttered Bovdohr.


"Well, most of our children haven"t been rescued yet, but we are next on the list, afterwards there would be our sibling children," said Marnet.


"That"s right, ah, I suppose we should introduce ourselves?" wondered Maeralya.


"But of course! Well, you two already know about me, I am Agatheina, the Vampire G.o.ddess of Blood" said Agatheina, appearing from behind the two demiG.o.ds and patting their shoulders amicably.


"And I am Levana, the Beast DemiG.o.ddess of Bats and Bat Beastmen… it is nice to meet new allies," said Levana, with a bit of a shy demeanor.


"I am Morpheus, the Beast DemiG.o.d of Horses and Centaurs. Levana, Marnet, and Maeralya are my younger siblings" said Morpheus, with a sincere smile.


"I am the Beast DemiG.o.d of Canines, Marnet! Nice to see some new meat in here once in a while! We are growing in numbers!" said Marnet.


"So, with you two, we are eight… two more to make ten… Ah, I am Maeralya, the Beast DemiG.o.ddess of Felines. Pleased to meet you two, Bovdohr and Nomera" said Maeralya.


"And I am Merveim, the Wyvern G.o.d of STRENGTH! …Nice to meet you" said Merveim.


"Sigh… sorry, but my brother likes to show off when he meets new people. I am Hodhyl, the Wyvern G.o.ddess of Nature. Merveim and I are siblings, and we are the latest addition to this Pantheon… It"s nice to know that there are more G.o.ds considering joining us" said Hodhyl.


"Oh my~ Everyone is so nice, hehe. Let us all be friends" said Nomera, with a bright and beautiful smile.


"Ahaha, I am a bit nervous, but it is nice to know all of your names. I do know some of you… but perhaps you didn"t know about us, we are quite the "obscure" demiG.o.ds… we barely partic.i.p.ate in Jupiter-sama Pantheon" said Bovdohr.


"I see… let us talk more about that, we would love to know more about them, especially because they are Kireina-sama enemies!" said Agatheina.


"Oh, with pleasure!" said Bovdohr, without a hint of shame.


"Hm, ah, this tea is so nice~," said Nomera, drinking the tea served by Morpheus while eating small biscuits.


Kireina had just gotten even more supporters on the G.o.d"s side.
