“Uwaah, I don’t want to look at Kireina-sama anymore!” Ariant cried.
“Me neither! She gave me weird vibes…” Eriant said.
The twins suddenly turned their backs at me, they didn’t wanted to see me anymore. I guess that was also working, the power of intimidation. As I transform, my intimidation Skills which I’ve merged by the thousands activate, forming this enormous aura of intimidation that just scares off everyone. I guess I have no access to the fused Skills I acquired through my journey in Genesis, but I’ve got this new set of Skills automatically generated from this naturally born intimidation power.
And well, anyways, because I began using this form which transforms my body into my embodiment of the divine power I possess, which can switch around between elements, but which Chaos element is the strongest as I have the most Elemental Particles of that element, I am quite formidable… however, my MP is being depleted! I guess I lose quite a lot.
If we calculate this… I can probably keep this up for around ten minutes before my MP goes completely out. I can still keep this up more if I have other sources of MP. Naturally back in Genesis I recover Divine Energy over time through the praises and worship of my people inside my Divine Realm, and many of the treasures I’ve placed inside the Divine Realm too. In here I only got my natural recovery speed, the buffs from Colora and then MP Drain Skill.
As long as I keep killing monsters while in this form, I can just drain their MP and continue with it up as much as I could afford… I suppose that’ll do, right?
“What with this form, Kireina? What did you do? This enormous pressure…” Said Luminous, feeling shocked.
“Ahahaha, it is nothing, really. It is just another form; I call it Divine Element Embodiment… or something like that.” I said. “Kind of what my ego weapons do. You should be able to do this too, and Fiere, the twins, Brunhild too. You all got the potential. I think it becomes easier with Divinity over 3k, but even those at lower Divinity stats could try.”
“A form?! This feels… I’ve never seen someone take such a form before.” Said Fiere.
“It really screams danger; it feels as if you create an environment of power…” Said Luminous.
“Ah that’s just the Divine Domain Skill activating, my surroundings become a domain of my element where I can trap foes to devour.” I said. “Oh! Maybe I should go back to my original form for now…”
“Yeah, I would appreciate it, my Fear Resistance Skill is already almost at Level 10.” Fiere said.
“You were already kind of creepy but I never thought you could become so scary!” Said Luminous.
“Hmmm…” I said, quickly turning back. “But it feels odd. I guess it is because my soul got destroyed and restructured. But also, I can feel over ten thousand souls within my very soul. Is this the souls of the monsters I’ve killed, and humans too…” I said while rubbing my chin.
“So I guess you’ve found that out.” Luminous said. “The Soul Book “EXP” is just part of the souls and essence of what we slay which becomes part of our soul and also boosts our bodies strength. We level up as our souls and bodies become stronger.”
“Yeah I knew that long ago smartass, I learned it from Genesis.” I sighed. “This EXP and Leveling System works by similar means, but it is even more advanced as it works with Divine beings… it is impressive. Genesis System simply couldn’t go beyond mortal ranks and anything above would be forced to regress into a more primitive form of growth. But if I could just keep this Soul Book thingy up, which is exactly not a System but some sort of “symptom of the soul” I could quite literally bring back Leveling to Genesis for those above mortals.”
Everyone wound me looked with confusion, Luminous seemed to understand a bit.
“So your world has different set rules, huh?” He wondered. “I suppose the theory of dimensions is right then.”
“Theory?” Asked Brunhild.
“I read from that in the Akashic Records, the records of the Gods of this world, they had investigated many things and researched a lot. Dimensions was one of their theories. They’re like… imagine bubbles holding worlds inside, countless of them. So there are countless of bubbles holding countless worlds each.” Luminous said.
“E-Eeeh?! That’s so weird… Wouldn’t our existence be insignificant?” Asked Brunhild.
“Technically… yeah.” Said Luminous.
“Ugh… Is it all so vast?” Sighed Brunhild.
“Kireina came from another dimension most likely then.” Fiere said. “There’s no way something like that would be a mother otherwise. She must have come from an alternate dimension where mothers are monsters from the depths of hell.”
“Ugh shut up!” I said angrily. “Or I’ll turn into a monster again for you!”
“Eek! Please don’t.” Fiere said, trying to calm me down.
“Also you’ve been changing your character all the time, I remember the first time we meet you were quite nice and serviceable. You’ve grown cocky with me, huh? Do you think you’re my friend or something?” I asked while crossing my arms.
“W-Well… We aren’t?” She wondered.
“…Yeah, I guess!” I said while feeling embarrassed. “A-Anyways, Purification.”
FLASH!
I quickly healed the twins from their [Fear] Status effect, and the two felt as if they were revived. Their Fear Resistance had already developed to Level 7 in the meantime they were holding out.
“Phew… that was really scary.” Sighed Ariant.
“Kireina-sama, please tell us beforehand if you’re going to transform next time!” Eriant cried.
“Ugh you guys are such crybabies… you’ll have to get used to it! Alright, let’s go now.”
