Chapter 580 - Awakened Parallel Gods
Chapter 580 - Awakened Parallel Gods
-----
Within Midgard, formerly known as Future Kritias, the Split Souls traveled through this vast Divine Realm World.
Using Phantom Clones, they had been traveling through this place for some time now, mostly seeking something.
By using their divinities as a compass, they were seeking the former and original wielders of these divinities.
Of course, aside from the Bright and Dark Gods from the outside Kritias, there were still the Gods from the Future Kritias sealed in Midgard, all of them were slumbering, as Bestellen had used his authority to steal their divinities through his power over Law, and then seal them into perpetual slumber.
However, now that the bastard was done, the right thing to do was to look for these Gods and aid them. Although they had lost their divinities, they were still powerful beings with a lot of knowledge that could be useful as allies. Now that Future Kritias was tied to their divine realm, it meant that they no longer had the obligation of staying there, and could actually travel outside and aid the split souls.
However, not all of them had lost their Divinities, there were some of them had had managed to keep theirs, as Bestellen had missed absorbing their divinities for motives such as them having hidden and sealed themselves already elsewhere, or perhaps they were already healed from before and Bestellen could not find them or didn't mind them… there was also the other reason, which was that he merely didn't knew where the heck they could had hidden.
.
The Gods were Lamus, the God of Space and Otherworldly Knowledge, Vedon, the God of Inventions, Alchemy, and Magic, Tikdall, the God of Wisdom and Intelligence, and Droella, the Goddess of Time and Patience.
They noticed that from all Divinities, these four were the ones missing- No, wait, there was one very elusive one.
Qadall, the God of Death and Souls.
What were these five Gods doing as of now?
The split souls didn't know, even with their divine senses spread through Midgard, these Gods were all hiding inside their own pocket dimensions essentially, so it was harder to find them.
And in the meantime, a group of their Phantom Clones, which they spread all across Midgard, reached the hiding place of two Gods.
Or well, the place where they were sealed…
The two gods in particular were Uphy and Phunana from the future. They looked rather similar than the ones they just meet, but they were covered in a white crystal of holy properties, and there were giant stakes piercing their bodies.
It was a tragic sight, after seeing the sisters so happy and energetic, now they saw their future versions, roughed, their bodies were covered on wounds, and they seemed to be sleeping, crystalized in time…
"Their souls are weakened… This is awful," sighed Veronica.
"We already saw this through Bestellen's memories when we ate him… Let's begin by destroying this crystal," said Ervas.
"Yeah… Hm. This crystal seem to be a curse, a materialized curse and sealing power. I suppose it is not really an earth attribute crystal, but the materialization and crystallization of an imprisonment made through sealing them. I think I can consume them with Death Magic," said Veronica.
"Be careful…" said Ervas.
Veronica used her Death Magic and her Jynx Goddess Skills to slowly degrade and consume the crystalized seal and curse, slowly disintegrating it- no, devouring it through the combination of Goddess of Gluttony Skill into the mix.
This deadly trio made a quick end of this seal, as the two bare souls of the goddesses were shown, their eyes slowly opening, glancing at the blue sky above them drowsily.
"Hmm…"
"Ahh…"
The two goddess slowly woke up, their divine presences were still strong as Great Goddesses, but as they were stripped from their Divine Authorities, their authorities as pillars of the world were gone.
What was even happening now? They had suddenly woke up after who knows how long… Their minds were dizzy, and they didn't know where they were and what were they doing.
But the figures of two people greeted them, Ervas and Veronica.
"They woke up fast… Alright, let's repair their souls," said Ervas.
The two goddesses could not even speak of how weak and lethargic they felt, so the Phantom Clones began to work over their souls without them being able to do anything against it.
At first they panicked and thought that only something bad awaited them, but that wasn't the truth! In fact, they slowly began to feel revitalized. Whoever was doing this, it was a goodhearted person at the end and not someone bad as they had initially feared. These two persons were healing the souls of gods, somehow…
Of course, it was through the use of the Soul Reconstruction Skill that they managed to do a lot.
Also, the goddesses souls seemed still well assembled, so it wasn't hard to heal them. Unlike souls they had eaten and later on reconstructed, which felt like resolving a puzzle, these goddesses souls resembled just very worn-down sheets that needed to be recovered.
The two goddesses felt like they were in a relaxing spa as very experienced people were giving them amazing oily massages, their bodies felt revitalized, and every inch of their muscles and bones felt born anew… a wave of relaxation hit them, and they suddenly fell asleep.
"Eh? They just started napping in front of us!" said Veronica.
"Wait, really?" asked Ervas.
"Yeah…" said Veronica in disbelief.
"I suppose they were relaxed. Now I wonder how we will explain to the goddesses outside about their two future versions… Maybe we should rename them?" asked Ervas.
"I don't think they would be fine with that! They're not pets, you know?" said Veronica.
"Right… Well, what do you have in mind?" asked Ervas.
"I honestly have no idea, maybe a paradox will happen if we make them met their other selves… I feel a bit frightful over the thought," said Veronica.
"Certainly, it would be troublesome if something weird happens… Though I have the feeling that nothing bad would happen," said Ervas.
"Hmmm… Damn, this is a heavy topic to think about," said Veronica.
