Chapter 882 - [Ascendance Of The Goddess of Sins and Virtues] 3/?: Yggdrasil Sprout Raid!
After having everything prepared, Kireina and her family were ready to depart to their first destiny, the famous Yggdrasil Sprout, the powerful and enormous Divine Material which was a gigantic tree branch from the original Yggdrasil Tree, which grew as its own tree within the Realm of Vida through the origins of the realm.
She stood in front of her own clone, which she had made specifically to blow itself up.
True Body Clones didn\'t have souls of their own but did have egos of their own, however, the soul was shared, so they were mere extra bodies she made for the same soul, and each body was assigned one of her many egos.
Yesterday inside of her Divine Realm, the other True Body Clones she sent around the Lower Realm finally came back, so she was able to create this new True Body Clone.
The plan was simply to let it bring forth chaos and confusion and provoke Zeus into a 1v1 fight where it would blow herself up whenever it managed to grab it with her fleshy and gibbering body.
She adjusted it so it wouldn\'t take away many of her stats whenever it blew into pieces, and finally set it off.
"Good luck, me," she said.
"You go it!" said her true body clone, as it flew away from her Divine Realm.
Kireina then quickly gathered with everyone that was going to participate in the raids to the three main targets, which were not many, as she wanted the majority to save their strength for the true fight that would come afterward. However, she had an immense amount of wives, children, friends, subordinates, and allies, so even if a large amount decided to stay, she was going with a big army already.
The big army grabbed each a large teleportation crystal which they would use to set up the Teleportation Formation, which would teleport the entire Yggdrasil Sprout inside Kireina\'s Divine Realm.
"Everyone is ready… Let\'s go then!" said Kireina, as she began to suddenly compact her entire Divine Realm inside of her Divine Core in a millisecond, quickly taking away the large space it took over the Spatial Layers where she deposited her Divine Realm, and then teleporting over the Everwood Kingdom…
…
It was but another peaceful day for the elves living in the Kingdom of Everwood, as they were completely unaware that their Queen, Faylen, had already become a Goddess and had joined other Gods into the crusade of killing Kireina.
Meanwhile, their royal family was brainwashed and made into puppets for the moment, although Faylen planned to heal their minds afterward to break them again and repeat the cycle she always loved to do with them.
Large trees that seemed to be smaller versions of the Yggdrasil Sprout erected over the smaller forest, reaching the high canopy, where many types of colorful birds lived in, singing, and making the every day of the elves a beautiful day, there was no day where they would not hear the melodies of the birds.
With pointed ears and long hairs of all types of bright colors, Elves spread all around the forest that surrounded the Yggdrasil Sprout.
"Another beautiful day…" said a young mother elf, with long blonde hair and emerald eyes, as she walked through the local market with her little daughter.
"Mama, I want apple!" she said, pointing at the fruit seller, who had an offer in apples.
"Oh my… We could make apple pie! We haven\'t done in a while, haven\'t we?" she asked, to her daughter, of her vivid image but simply younger, whose emerald eyes began to shine brightly as her eyebrows raised in excitement and surprise.
"Really? Yaay! Apple pie!" said the little girl, jumping around as she moved near the elf man that sold apples.
"Oh, but it isn\'t a charming young lady!" he said with a warm smile.
"Oji-san, we want apple!" she said.
"Oho? And what apple might you want? We have many apples! Look, red, blue, green, and there\'s even this one special apple here… look at this," said the man, showing the girl an apple covered in caramel.
"Uwah! Candied apple!" she said.
"Oh my, sorry if she has been bothering you, sir…" apologized the mother as she finally caught up to her daughter.
"Don\'t worry…! Ah, and the apple is one copper," said the elf man, as he saw the girl eating the candied apple.
The elven woman smiled bitterly as she felt like she fell into the trap of the greedy old elf… but ended buying a kilogram of apples and the candied apple too.
The little elven girl had her entire mouth covered in red caramel, as she liked her little lips.
"Hmm! Mama, do you want some?" she asked.
"Oh, sure thing! I paid for it, so I am getting some! Nom… Hmm… It has been some time since I hate candied apple…" said the elven woman, recalling her past.
They kept walking through the market as the woman saw a person selling fish that was brought from the nearby lake.
"Oh my, these are still alive!"
"Yeah missy, only two coppers for that one just because you have charmed me with your beauty!" said an old elf man while winking.
The elven mother couldn\'t help but release a small chuckle as she began to look for the coins to buy the fish.
Completely unaware of this, several figures spread all around Everwood glanced down below to the Elves living their daily lives, completely unaware that Gods were watching over them at this moment, and that a big war was undergoing between their progenitor, Zeus, and Kireina, the demon who killed their uncle, Hephaestus.
"Foolish mortals, they have no idea of the horrors of the outside world, eh? Sigh… It makes me want to squash them like ants for being so ignorant and useless! It would be a nice sacrifice for father!" said a young man, Tereus, Demigod of Brutal War.
His entire body was shrouded in big scars of countless battles, his muscles were enormous and as strong as the most powerful of maces, his skin was as hard as armor and tanned, making it slightly brown-red. His hair was long and blonde, and he held a single piece of stone carved as a large blade-like weapon, which was his artifact. He wore leather pants and nothing else and seemed completely wild. His gaze held the pressure of a thousand bloodthirsty lions.
"What are you talking about? Who taught you to talk like that, Tereus? I doubt Uncle Ares would even want such a thing to happen. Haven\'t you heard? Mortals are vital for our growth as Gods, we require their worship to become stronger. Desiring to annihilate them merely because they are weaker is nonsensical. As Gods, we must protect the mortals, not kill them," said Anteros, the God of reciprocated love (or contrarily of unreciprocated love), son of Aphrodite.
His entire body looked like a beautiful Greek statue, his body and features seemed to be perfect, his muscles were slim yet well-toned, his legs slender yet strong, and he wore a simple toga to showcase his beautiful body. He had small, pink-colored feathered wings behind his back, and a charming smile, alongside short pink hair and shiny golden eyes.
"That\'s right, it is just as big brother says. We must treasure mortals who live for very little. After all, Mortals are vital for your growth as Gods, and instead of despising them for their weakness, we should strive to love and protect them, just a smother has taught me…!" said H.y.m.e.naeus, the God of Weddings, one of the sons of Aphrodite.
His figure was smaller compared to his older brother, Anteros, but it wasn\'t less of an Adonis, his entire figure was beautiful, slim, and the definition of the perfect human male physique. His face seemed angelic and slightly feminine, with a sweet and beautiful smile, and shiny pink eyes alongside long pink hair made into braids, he also wore a toga but lacked the little wings behind his back.
"Sheesh, can\'t I say a joke? It was a joke! Don\'t get so overly serious over it! I know that I shouldn\'t kill them… Don\'t lecture me as if I were a child…" sighed Tereus, as he crossed his arms.
"Hmm… Father and grandfather Zeus will be very busy, but it seems that the demoness will not be too much of a threat, after all, Grandfather Zeus prepared a lot of things, and enslaved most of the Lower Realm Gods, forming a large army. Kireina will stand no chance, even if she uses all her powers. Father and grandfather will wear her down with a giant army and then take her down after she\'s weakened… There\'s no necessity to be preoccupied," sighed Iacchus, the God of Mysteries, known as the third son of Dionysus. He was a son of Dionysus and the Titaness Aura, born before Genesis became realms.
"Oh yeah, I guess we just sit here for now," sighed Tereus while crossing his arms and groaning, while floating above the skies inside his Divine Realm and glaring at the mortals from a crevice.
"I believe in Zeus-sama. He has been dead-set in defeating the demon that killed our Heroes since he got to know what happened to them. She is a demon that can defy a bit of fate, and managed to kill our heroes ahead of their destinies within their Epics… I wish I could participate in the battle, but Zeus-sama deemed me worthy of protecting this place, and I shall do so with all my might," said Ihmir, the Demigod of Chivalry. He resembled a stoic man with a serious face, with short blonde hair and golden eyes, he was wearing heavy golden armor over his body and seemed to have a very serious expression while glaring at the Elves.
"Indeed, let\'s put our faith on Zeus-sama, everyone… He had prepared thoroughly through this entire ordeal, so he is most likely already secured victory! Let\'s simply patiently wait for the minute we can hear that monster\'s last scream of pain before vanishing into the void," said Khyenar, the Demigod of Military. He resembled a muscular old man, with a white mustache and short silver hair, his eyes are aquamarine, and his entire body is covered in Iron Armor, he wields a lance seemingly made of steel, but all of its equipment is made of Divine Materials.
"I can see that all of you are eager for our Grandfather\'s victory! That\'s fills me with joy~! So, do you two want to come to celebrate after all of this is over within my Divine Realm? I am sure that I can offer you many… entertainments," said H.y.m.e.naeus coquettishly, as he winked to Khyenar and Ihmir… the two gods felt a sudden embarrassment as they blushed, although manly, the beauty and charm of the son of Aphrodite even affected males, and they couldn\'t help but feel excited by thinking about being invited to one of her children\'s orgies.
"W-We could do so after this is over…" said Ihmir.
"Indeed. It would be a p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e, H.y.m.e.naeus-sama…" said Khyenar.
"Oh my~! How wonderful, I will make sure to make you enjoy it thoroughly~ Fufu…" chuckled H.y.m.e.naeus coquettishly, as he blushed a bit.
"(What kind of men are these? I thought they liked women… Wait, I am pretty sure Ihmir and Khyenar have wives and children too…)" sighed Venia, the Demigod of Holy Righteousness. He had the appearance of a handsome young man with long white hair and emerald eyes. He wore a light, white-colored armor, and held a golden sword in his left hand.
"So? Venia, do you want to join us after this? I can assure you that my beds are made of the finest silk," said H.y.m.e.naeus.
"I-I will have to decline the offer, H.y.m.e.naeus-sama… But thank you for inviting me nonetheless," said Venia.
"Sheesh, well, you are losing the opportunity to experience the p.l.e.a.s.u.r.es of the flesh, stoic knight~" sighed H.y.m.e.naeus.
"Hold on, stop speaking, everyone… I feel a sudden disturbance on space…" said Umlena, the Goddess of War, one of the Gods that had its champion eaten and her blessing stolen.
"Hm? I don\'t sense anything-" muttered H.y.m.e.naeus, as space over the barrier that covered Everwood, and the Yggdrasil Sprout suddenly began to distort!
"W-What is that!?" asked H.y.m.e.naeus, pointing at the strange figure appearing!
All the Gods, after seeing her, were shocked.
"T-That\'s…!"
"No way…!"
"But how?! Didn\'t she reached the Lower Realm?!"
"Father was sure that she never visited this place! How did she… teleported here?!"
"Can we even stand a chance?"
"This demon…!"
"So it is you, Kireina! How were able to fool Fate itself to not be detected?!" roared Umlena, raising her large blade as her crimson hair waved by the winds up above.
"Fufu… Why should I tell you? All of you are mere aperitives… And my mother always said to never play with my food…" said Kireina as her playful words made chills run through the spines of the Gods!
