Chapter 376 - Morpheus's Life-Attribute Dungeon Conquest 21/30: Wors.h.i.+ped Demon G.o.ddess

-----

Kireina was once again within her dreams.

She found herself with her usual physical body, walking through a road made out of her blood.

As she walked on, she saw strange figures, and she approached them, she saw familiarity with them.

Six figures stood, seemingly made out of hardened blood, they were her six children, Amiphossia, Ryo, Valentia, Aarae, Vudia, and Ailine. All of them were in this order.

Kireina seemed saddened, as they were mere statues of her children, and not really them.

As she tried to touch these statues, the seemingly hardened and dry blood that made them obtained life once again, each statue became figures made out of pure blood, and when the blood flowed towards the blood road, her real children appeared, they seemed to be peacefully resting.

Kireina hugged and kissed them, and afterward, she let them rest.

As she kept moving through the road made out of blood, she found small, dim lights in the dark horizon, and as she walked towards them, these lights kept multiplying endlessly, they were a dozen, then a hundred and then thousands…

Each small light wors.h.i.+ped Kireina as their G.o.ddess and offered her sincere and honest prayers.

Some thanked her for her benevolence.

Others thanked her for the delicious meals, houses, and other things that she brings to them.

And others thanked her for giving them another opportunity in life.

Kireina kneeled and held the lights in her arms, they were tiny but together made out a large population, their weight was incredibly heavy, but she managed to grab every single one of them with her strength.

She hugged them tightly and gave them her comfort…

And as she did, these lights were happy. They wors.h.i.+ped her more and her existence grew stronger and vast like the ocean…

Kireina then, cut off her arm and left the lights residing there.

Then, she continued through the road made out of her blood.

She then saw presences similar to her, they had her same anatomy, and some were copies of her soul.

Seeing how things worked out when she was kind to such existences back then, she did the same with these and hugged them tightly.

They were many, but Kireina was vast like the ocean, she had enough strength and power to hug every single one of them and held them in her lap.

The figures glowed as they merged with Kireina, into a single existence.

Kireina became even bigger and vast, her entire body was an amalgamation of thousands of things, some would say that she was horrible and grotesque, but others would say that she was beautiful.

She moved her ma.s.sive body through the road made out of blood, pieces of her gigantic body were torn apart and scattered all around, and more lights appeared and wors.h.i.+ped her.

Kireina saw her entire family, her wives, and children, and her subordinates, her entire empire was sitting on her vast body, which could become a world of its own. Everyone seemed to be at ease.

As Kireina felt her powers evolving with her dreams, three G.o.ds glanced at the Shadow Sphinx City from within a crystal ball.

Morpheus, the Demi-G.o.d of Horses and Centaurs released a small carefree chuckle.

"So she did it… She ate Megusan's soul… haha"

"Wasn't this within your expectations, brother?" asked Levana, the Demi-G.o.ddess of Bats and Bat Beastmen.

"I… I did expect this, but seeing it with my own eyes was something unique on its own…"

"Well, yes, it was frightening in a way, Megusan's existence fading away as he was eaten by Kireina's soul… it was really something else" muttered Levana, she was certainly terrified about Kireina's powers.

"Divinity Devouring is a technique that most of us G.o.ds possess, you are the second generation of G.o.ds, born after Genesis was split into Realms, so you never experienced the Great G.o.d Wars, Ragnarok… there, G.o.ds and True Spirits fought each other constantly, devouring each other souls and divinities," said Agatheina, while sipping a gla.s.s of Divine Beast blood, she seemed a little bit more recovered from her injury.

"I-I see… I've heard such things from Mother's subordinate G.o.ds, who partic.i.p.ated in that war alongside her… but seeing it live was a new experience altogether…" said Morpheus, as he sipped an aromatic tea.

"We may be immortals as we are ageless and our physical bodies can regenerate almost endlessly, but we G.o.ds can still die and be eaten…" muttered Levana, as she drank a little bit of blood from a gla.s.s.

"Indeed, Kireina is perhaps the first mortal that had obtained the Divinity Devouring Technique… no, Skill. In the past, the System did not exist, so most of the abilities showcased now by mortals were named Techniques or Spells… and various Skills didn't even exist back then… However, Divinity Devouring was a technique that most G.o.ds learned after ascending and preying over other G.o.ds… we could even obtain it by eating Divine Beasts" said Agatheina, her crimson eyes filled with the wisdom of the past.

"Really? But grandmother, I haven't gotten that Skill at all, even when I've eaten Divine Beast Flesh in several preparations…" said Levana.

"That's because a special ritual and several materials are needed to obtain it… although Kireina obtained it after completing a series of requirements. She ate Divine Energy from that fool's Omgramid back on his Dungeon, and after eating big quant.i.ties and digesting it with Devour, she obtained the Skill that represents the Divinity Devouring technique… Though I don't remember it being capable of infusing its powers into other skills neither our Auras… Her Divinity Devouring vastly differs from the technique we used back then, and the one that I still have, although it doesn't show itself as a Skill like hers" answered Agatheina.

"Could it be an evolved or superior version related to the Devour Ability in her Blessing?" asked Morpheus, genuinely curious.

"It should be… though, we could ask her directly, but I don't want to bother my Master," said Agatheina, as she glanced at Kireina through the crystal ball, who was currently peacefully sleeping. A certain and charming innocence leaked from her sleeping face, making Agatheina fall more and more in love with Kireina.

"I-I see… it must have been hard back then, in the Ragnarok…" said Levana.

"Agatheina, if so, many G.o.ds had Divinity Devouring… then, most of the G.o.d's divinities…" Morpheus muttered.

"That's right, Morpheus. You're quite sharp. Most of the current G.o.ds divinities used to belong to True Spirits, the real Spirits, and direct children of the World's Will, the ent.i.ty that represents this world" answered Agatheina.

"So, the G.o.ds in the past… even mother?" asked Morpheus, bewildered.

"Yes, mostly all of the Great and Supreme G.o.ds obtained their divinities after killing and eating the divinity of the True Spirits that represented such Attribute. Not me though, I discovered the Blood Attribute on my own, no True Spirit represented it…" Agatheina answered, with a mischievous smile, proud of her achievement.

"To be expected of Grandmother!" Levana said, praising Agatheina.

"But Agatheina… even the G.o.ddess of Death and the G.o.d of Nether Death?" asked Morpheus, he seemed to still be in doubt.

"That's right, Morpheus, even Hel, and Hades were mortals who raised to G.o.dhood. Hel, the Great G.o.ddess of Death, alongside her two siblings, Fenrir and Jormungandr partic.i.p.ated actively in the war, they were young back then…", said Agatheina, as she drank more blood, "After a series of events, the True Spirit of Death was cornered and killed after several other G.o.ds tried to eat it, and Hel, alongside her siblings, managed to eat its leftover divinity after several struggles… Hades ate a piece of it as well, which he managed to steal from Fenrir and Jormungandr, they were supposed to be G.o.ds of Death as well… Hades had the divinity of the Nether Attribute, originally"

Being given Agatheina's wisdom, the two demi-G.o.ds gasped.

"So that is one of the truths about this world's G.o.ds? This…" muttered Morpheus, terrified about the mercilessness of the past.

"Then such powerful divinities as Death, Life or Souls and Reincarnation wouldn't exist in G.o.ds if it wasn't because they originally ate the divinities from their original wielders, who were the children of the World's Will?" asked Levana, grasping the truth.

"Exactly, Levana… I know very well about the True Spirit of Death event because I was one of those G.o.ds who wanted its divinity as well… but if it wasn't for those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds who blocked my way…! Oh well, they were the first G.o.ds that died after Hel obtained her divinity, so I can't hold any grudges for the death, fufu" recalled Agatheina, remembering the despairing faces of the G.o.ds who got into her way.

"(G.o.ds from the past are scary…)" Morpheus thought.

"I guess the past wasn't as peaceful as now… so many events constantly happening, G.o.ds preying on other G.o.ds and True Spirits… it was a chaotic era" muttered Levana.

"Exactly, you G.o.ds of the second generation and so on are blessed with a world seemingly in peace… though, such small balance is soon to be destroyed by Master," Agatheina said, with a playful smile, while glancing at Kireina peacefully sleeping.

"We did well in getting on her good side," Morpheus said, nodding.

"Indeed…" Levana said, with a forced smile.

[Skill Descriptions]

[Abyssal Divine Lineage; Bloodline of the Divine Demoness Mother of l.u.s.tful Venom; Level 1/10]

A powerful Lineage was born when several Skills were devoured by the Superior Unique Bloodline of Kireina. It shows that her powers surpa.s.s mortals and she is closer to a divine realm, yet she isn't a G.o.ddess. Such bloodline possesses countless talents stolen from others, and it seems to have a will of its own, devouring weaker Skills acquired automatically without Kireina having to fuse them, raising its level, effects, and powers.

Each child created by Kireina possesses this bloodline, which has been forcefully updated.

It also grants the user the ability to speak telepathically to any of her descendants who possess her bloodline.

[Wors.h.i.+ped Demon G.o.ddess; Level 1/10]

A strange Skill born when two Skills raised to max level and the power and effect of the [Heresy] Skill made them merge while recognizing Kireina's new status as someone close to divinity.

It grants her the ability to gain power from those who wors.h.i.+p her, acquiring Experience Points, Skill Points, and extra Stats the more people wors.h.i.+p her, similar to true G.o.ds. It has the side effect of weakening the user if she stops being wors.h.i.+ped.

In a similar fas.h.i.+on to new Skills that Kireina has acquired, the Skill may automatically suppress and merge itself with newly acquired skills of its same category.

[True Grotesque Existence; Demon G.o.ddess Hermaphroditus; Level 1/10]

A Skill born after Kireina's former Belly Skill reached the max level. On its insatiable appet.i.te, it devoured all of her skills related to it, and evolved into a single and superior Skill containing all powers into one form, while amplifying them.

Kireina's Psyche and Physique are now one, and she can freely shape herself to whatever form she desires. However, she is dearly attached to her former appearance, so she won't change unless it is necessary.

Like previous Skills, this Skill will devour any skill related to its category. Although it still can't devour the Divine Flesh Skills.

[Abilities; [Body Shapes.h.i.+fting], [Fluid Manipulation], [Flesh Restoration], [Fluid Generation], [Grotesque Body Transformation], [Hermaphroditus], [Psyche Nourishment], [Physique Nourishment], [Phantom Trans.m.u.tation], etc.]
