Chapter 920 - [Ascendance Of The G.o.ddess Of Sins And Virtues] 41/?: Preparing For The Confrontation
-----
The G.o.ds of the Lower Realm were growing impatient as Zeus continued to rest and his family had still to give them an order on what to do next, everyone was counting on Baltis to create divination, while Apollo gathered materials to create a special formation to trap Kireina and not let her teleport anymore.
Nonetheless, the G.o.ds were growing impatient and so did the two Realm Menaces, which one of them had run back to his own Kingdom after getting bored of waiting, Vretrion, the Realm Menace of Pride.
The Dragon G.o.ds, however, were still gathered together and sharing energies to grow stronger, while the three dark flames, the tyrants of the Lower Realm were growing impatient, they had already seen one of Kireina"s clones decimating dozens of DemiG.o.ds in a second, and they desired to destroy her at all costs if possible, without being merciful at all!
Defeating her was the top priority at hand, yet it has already been a few hours since the Yggdrasil Branch was stolen by her, and the G.o.ds were growing worried that she might have just forgotten about them all together and her powers could somehow ignore or fool Baltis, the G.o.ddess of Stargazing Eyes, predictions.
It was also a possibility that she might have just escaped into another Realm! However, the G.o.ds were held in high hopes that such a thing has not happened yet.
Although they were afraid of her, the Lower Realm G.o.ds were more afraid of another being, Zeus himself.
He had showcased such amount of power when he conquered and enslaved them all that the G.o.ds had grown instinctively fearful of him… They couldn"t think of any way for him to completely lose against Kireina, even when he was wounded by her clone, there should be a way for him to somehow come back one way or another.
The G.o.ds were in high hopes for Zeus to be recovering and fine, while waiting for the moment to strike, for Baltis to come and predict where Kireina might be and to go there, trap her in the special formation and decimate her and anyone with her once and for all.
These G.o.ds, especially the Dark Flames desired to defeat her so much because Zeus had promised to free them after they were to defeat and kill Kireina, and their resolve to fight such a monstrosity even if the odds were not in their favor was their new purpose.
All the G.o.ds in the Lower Ream desired freedom from Zeus claws, and decimating Kireina would offer them freedom once more! Even if it seemed insane, it is not like they ever had any other option, right?
In the end, Zeus could simply destroy or devour them himself, that he allowed them to kill her and free themselves was already the best possible scenario that could have happened.
Instead of having been killed and eaten by him, they were given the chance of surviving by doing something that not many would think was realistic, but they had numbers and were many.
And even then, they also had Zeus and his whole family to a.s.sist them, things couldn"t possibly go wrong, no matter what!
There were also the Dragon G.o.ds, they all were strong in their own way, and even more, the G.o.ds of the Azuma Empire had also come! If all of them fused their power against Kireina, things seemed to have suddenly turned brighter than they had thought they could be!
However, this couldn"t be far from the truth…
Nonetheless, the G.o.ds continued to feed themselves with the thought that they could actually win and reach somewhere, as there was no other thing that they could think of or anything else that they could grasp the last hopes they had for surviving this whole ordeal.
And as this happened, within Kireina"s Divine Realm, the monstrosity that now had become a complete threat to the entire world was continuing to grow stronger in the backs of everyone, waiting to surprise them and destroy them.
And just as she rested and had a relaxed moment with her family while everyone else was getting concerned for their lives, she suddenly received two more Divinities, boosting her strength a little bit.
-----
As I was resting with my family, I got a message from my Zeus clone. It seems that they had managed to successfully kill and eat Dyonisos Divine Soul, alongside Heras Divine Soul, the wife of Zeus!
I realized this the moment their residual souls emerged inside of my Divine Realm and gathered with the other Residual Souls, becoming mere mortal souls now after I had completely eaten everything else that gave them power.
A rush of divine power showered my entire body as I felt like I was evolving, my entire being upgraded itself, as my soul flowed with a slightly great quant.i.ty of new power. Perhaps it was not enough to reach Rank 9 yet, but it was good enough to nourish myself into my next level of strength.
I was feeling excited by merely imagining what I could become if I were to reach Great G.o.d Rank, so this little incentive is all I needed before beginning my next course of action…
Ding!
[You acquired the [Divinity of Sacred Animals and Plants (Life, Nature, Holy Light) (Dionysus)]!]

This power seems quite good enough!
I decided to glance at my stats, as I was once more amazed a little bit as I grew even more ridiculously faster than before.

…
Excellent, my Divine Energy is already at 34 million, this is enough for what I will do next, and even then, now that I am constantly absorbing Void Essence and eating Dream Worlds, my Divine Energy regeneration has multiplied several times.
Aether is nearing 18 million, which means that my magic-based attacks or long-ranged attacks that are not purely physical deal a ton of damage, I might be already in the realm of Great G.o.ddess strength-wise.
My Fate is in an amazing number, most G.o.ds have less than one million, Zeus only had around 1 Million so… Yeah, I got a lot of it, I am super lucky and charismatic!
And my Ki is also outstanding, but even as a G.o.ddess, it seems that my specialization is still long-ranged attacks with my Aether being at a higher number than Ki.
Additionally, my Nature Attribute Particles, Life Attribute Particles, and Illusion/Emotion Attribute Particles increased a bit… To think that attacking with a bunch of sharp wood is now stronger than the blackholes I can generate… I guess that"s just the supernatural nature of Attribute Particles and the real power of attributes.
After all, Black Holes I generate are magic-made (or well, divine-made), and are bound by my quant.i.ty of attribute particles. I suppose the "laws of physics" or whatever my memories learned from that one magic-less earth don"t apply here, or perhaps they do apply in the great scheme of things?
I don"t understand really well where the line between real physics and then the magic-based phenomenon is made… perhaps magic-based ones are actually everything, and the ones that humans in this magic-less world understood as laws of physics are not the actual truth, but a flawed understanding of a place where there isn"t enough magic to explain such phenomena?
Okay, maybe I am getting too much into this thought process, I need to clean up my mind.
After eating and replacing Dionysus and Heras, Zeus and the other clones remained within Apollo"s Divine Realm, cooking up the big divine formation that will trap all the G.o.ds for me to devour.
And what should I do in the meantime? Isn"t that a give? I am going to go steal Vretrion"s Kingdom and let Brontes slaughter this guy.
According to my surveillance, such as my spying slime clones deposited there, Vretrion is waiting within his Tower, alongside the G.o.d with him, this guy was his major benefactor through his entire life, a G.o.d named Khustia, the G.o.d of Abyssal Blight.
Well, this guy is a mere snack too, so we are pretty much going to go there watch Brontes beat the s.h.i.+t out of Vretrion more than anything, it will be a nice spectacle.
I wish I could have let Altani eat Baltis, or Alice eating Zeus, but when I asked them if they would have wanted to do that, they said they mostly didn"t care… So yeah, I guess they just don"t give a d.a.m.n overall.
As I was thinking all of this, Brontes came back to the castle, of course, her size reduced.
"I am ready…" she said, exuding the power of a Rank 4 G.o.ddess.
Yup, my Brontes is already Rank 4 G.o.ddess! This is thanks to intense Dual Cultivation sessions, eating my Divine Soul Fragments, and also using Charlotte"s help to craft special Divine Concoctions and other consumable items made of Divine Materials, which hastened her cultivation speed even more.
Well, she also ate like a few thousand Thunder Attribute Divine Beast inside Babel, she goes there daily to just hunt endlessly.
With all of this and her amazing artifact, the golden club she always carries, which is now a True Rank Divine Realm Artifact, we are ready to depart!
