Chapter 963 - A Conversation Between Gods (1/2)
-----
Within the Divine Realm of Kireina, above the skies within the Heaven Layer, the Gods gathered alongside the souls of all the Gods Kireina had eaten, which now amounted to dozens after dozens.
Led by her allied Gods, all these God Souls had formed the Divine Council of Gods, and they spoke about man things, mostly to just kill time as they were now mere souls without much to do.
However, a conversation between the wyvern Gods, Merveim, the Wyvern God of Strength, and Hodhyl, the Wyvern Goddess of Nature underwent alongside Othairth, the Dragon Goddess of Poisonous Eyes.
They suddenly received the news about Brulzrayn, Qondress, and Nymbais getting killed by Kireina rather easily, but she had decided to not give them a second chance in here because she had grown to hate them for what they did to the mortals that were once the allies of David.
”Well, I didn't particularly expect them to get here either, Kireina did say that she held these mortals in some regard as they were the allies of the previous lives of her children, the harpy children who were born from the eggs laid by Nephiana, one of her wives,” said Hodhyl.
”Indeed, in the end, I didn't expect them to get here, and even if they did, I would have given them a good beating for being such treacherous and traitor bastards… In the end, they acted against our mother, Tiamat, beliefs and helped the Gods of the central continent, even allying with Zeus from all things, who was abhorred my mother as he had once tried to rȧpė her,” sighed Merveim.
”Ugh, don't remind me of that bastard, I am happy that he is gone from existence… And I am deeply sorry for what the bastard had done…” sighed Zeus former wife, Hera, Goddess of Marriage and Nebulas.
”Ah, don't worry about it,” said Hodhyl.
”Yeah, it's not like mother didn't give him a good beating back then,” chuckled Merveim.
”Hm, our siblings have perished just like that? It is shocking to me to think that I was once working for them, I am glad that I opened my eyes and went away from their corrupted minds, I bet they didn't even care when I went away… you might call my brother Nyzzet a coward, but at the very least he's not a bastard like those three,” sighed Othairth.
”I don't know if I should feel flattered or not over such a statement, but thanks nonetheless, nee-sama,” said Nyzzet.
”Well you've grown stronger too, all that training helped at the end, right? And Kireina-sama even gave you back the skill that Thanatos stole from you using Greed, so you've recovered most of your power as well,” said Othairth.
”Yeah, I guess this wimpy younger brother had finally become a man,” said Merveim.
”Hm, you worked hard helping everyone,” said Hodhyl.
”I don't know what to say… I don't think I deserve such praises… And it's not like we worked that hard… Well, the fight against Thanatos was rather hard, yeah…” said Nyzzet.
Although they talked about it as if it were the past, the battle against Thanatos happened just a few days ago in the outside world, perhaps no more than a single week… It was just that inside of Kireina's divine realm, time went by incredibly fast.
So for the Gods, this was as if it was a long time!
But they had also helped in even this fight, through the power of the God Descent Skill, they descended over the bodies of their blessed, such as Merveim and Hodhyl over Titus and Eshne, Othairth over Nanshe, Nyzzet over Goghesdum, and so on, so they still aided them in battle! Even more, as they had their army of living deities' children, which also used the same power, the more stacked over a soul, the stronger the believer would become.
Like this, even the Demigods were able to defeat the powerful peak-stage God Realm enemies they faced with utmost ease, even Mao was receiving such aid, so their victory was more than secured, in fact, the entire battle was a massacre, a complete massacre, a one-sided slaughter!
When Gods descend over the bodies of their believers, they also undergo the same pain and effort as their heroes, and this can be done even when their believers are gods.
”How are the mortals that those trio of idiots possessed?” asked Othairth.
”I think they are good. The three had merged with their souls, which were also raised to godhood, but when Kireina-sama ate them and crushed them completely, she easily separated the parts from these dragon gods and reconstructed their souls little by little, sticking each fragment where they needed to be, in a way, it was an incredibly meticulous work that only a Soul Attribute God could ever do right, but Kireina-sama is Kireina-sama, she's incredible in every regard, so this was easy work for her, only taking about half a minute,” said Hodhyl, who was in love with Kireina for some time now and had begun to speak about her the same way Agatheina did…
”Although it seems that for now they are being healed slowly in the Hell Layer, where there is a spring that heals souls. The souls were reconstructed, but the cracks remained, so this bath will hopefully heal such cracks and remake them completely,” said Merveim.
”They should be fine in a couple more days, after that, I believe Kireina-sama might give them the chance to either reincarnate or get new bodies, maybe?” wondered Maeralya, as she waved her multiple cat tails, she exuded the divine aura of a Rank 3 Goddess, long ago she used to be a Demigoddess, but now, she was a strong Goddess! Her beauty had increased quite a lot, and she was within the list of possible wives for Kireina, which was a list made by Gods that liked to gossip.
