With the rush of divine energy flooding her body, Nimue and Attie who were trying to keep her alive naturally came in contact with this energy as golden runes spread across their bodies.
Feeling a cool energy spread through her body, Nimue couldn’t help but feel relaxed as her mind drifted towards unconsciousness.
However, with the danger of Shiro’s body collapsing, she quickly woke herself up as she glanced at the mana realm.
But when she did, she noticed the golden runes spreading along the borders as the pressure seemingly disappeared. Relaxing her efforts, she realised that the mana realm was now stabilising itself as a golden energy seemed to flow through the mana links reconnecting and healing them in the process.
Feeling a little confused about this, Nimue wasn’t able to say anything as her mind was beginning to drift off once more.
Unable to hold on, she collapsed on the ground as she could see that Attie was in the same situation. The golden runes pulsed as a red crystal enveloped his body.
Closing her eyes, she lost consciousness.
While this was happening, Hades looked at Shiro with shock as a surge of divine energy erupted out of her which had the power to repel his own. Glancing at his hand that was forced off her back, he understood what this meant. Her divinity surpassed his. Despite ruling over the concept of death and souls, his divinity was no match. A smile formed on his face as he observed the changes in her body.
With her mana links being broken previously, it gave way for the divine energy to seep into her body and enhance it in the place of mana. With golden energy pulsing through her veins and repairing her links, her physique was no different than when she had activated her skill ascension. The only difference was that this was now her base form rather than battle form when she unleashed all of her power over her divinity.
"She’s no different to a true God/Demi God now. Her physique is the same as mine." Hades smiled.
While there was more than just power and physique when it came to Gods, it was no exaggeration to say that Shiro was a quarter of a step into proper Godhood.
Taking a step back, Hades glanced at Kalus.
"I don’t know if I should call your granddaughter talented or monstrous. She’s actually forging her own godly physique as we speak and she stumbled upon this method herself. While I would say it’s lucky, who’s suicidal enough to destroy their own body to seek out divine energy? If she made a mistake, there was a chance she would have just died." Hades chuckled as Kalus looked at Shiro with worry.
"Mn should we do anything?" He asked as he was concerned for her safety.
"Nope. We should just wait right now as divine energy is currently healing her. By the time she reawakens, she should be stronger than ever with a physique that is many times more powerful than people of her tier. Though there are still limitations when it comes to her level, she shouldn’t have any problems." Hades smiled.
"I see..." Kalus sighed in relief as he was nervous when she injured herself so heavily. But since she was speaking with determination and confidence, he decided to trust her choice. Thankfully, it paid off.
Time passed as the divine energy slowly reinforced her body. Her links were completely repaired and were even better than their previous condition.
Groaning softly, Shiro slowly opened her eyes as she realised that she had been unconscious for quite a while.
Standing up, she expected to feel her body ache slightly but it was strangely refreshed.
"You’ve finally woken up. Sleeping for a week in here is quite a surprise." Hades smiled as he appeared in the realm.
"I slept for a week?" Shiro asked with disbelief as Hades nodded his head.
"It’s not surprising considering that your body was getting used to divine energy. With what you have done, your physique has been improved and your mana seems to have been infused with the divine energy." Hades reminded as Shiro paused for a second.
Moving her arms around, she guessed that the divine energy was probably the reason as to why she felt so energetic right now.
Glancing at her system, she noticed a few new notifications.
Most of them were just health reports and notes about divine energy entering her system. However, the most important one was how both Nimue and Attie were undergoing evolutions after being infused with her divine energy. Glancing into her mana realm, Shiro could see both Nimue and Attie encased in a crystal while Iziuel and Estrella rested beside them.
Looking up, she could see her mana links being lined with golden energy which radiated with a divine aura that Shiro recognised since she had used her ascension skill previously and this feeling was unforgettable.
Since both Nimue and Attie were undergoing an evolution right now, Shiro decided to not disturb them just yet.
"Right then, can you sense divine energy now? After this ’little upgrade’ sensing it should be rather easy." Hades smiled as Shiro nodded her head.
Snapping her fingers, the same golden energy started to wrap around her arm as Hades nodded his head in satisfaction.
"The original plan was to teach you how to isolate and use this without ascending but with your upgrade, it seems like I no longer need to teach this. For the remaining time here, we’re going to spend it teaching you how to enhance your spells and create new ones using divine energy." Hades said with a smile.
Seeing as though Shiro could now bring out divine energy at will, it was only natural to assume that she could now use it without directly ascending. If he had to describe it using numbers, she had access to around 20 to 25% of her power as a Demi God and ascending would unlock the rest. Of course, he didn’t know that she could easily change her Demi God form into true God with a few skill combinations but doing so had its drawbacks as she would not be able to use divine energy at all for the next few days.
At first, this backlash confused her a little since she didn’t use divine energy outside of the form but now it made sense. With her being able to use divine energy and having it infused into her body, not being able to use it would hinder her quite a bit during combat.
For the next month or so, Shiro continued to train with Hades as Kalus would occasionally spar with her to see if her skills were battle ready. After all, they needed to make sure that Shiro makes the most out of the divine energy in her body.
If she wasted it on a skill that can be replicated using mana, she is essentially cutting out a majority of her power on purpose. Testing out different combinations for her divine energy, they discovered that she had the capacity to use 2 original divine energy spells and enhance 5 mana spells per day before she ran out of divine energy. This wasn’t including the divine energy she would use for reinforcing her body so if she was to include that, it would be around 1 original spell and 3 reinforcements.
That wasn’t bad as the original spells created using only divine energy were many times stronger than her normal spells but the only problem was creating one. So far, all of her ideas were able to be replicated with mana so they couldn’t be counted as divine energy spells.
Even her world class magic, Requiem of the Dead, could only be classed as half of a divine energy spell since the majority of it could be replicated using mana. The main requirements are mastery over souls and a large mana pool.
But despite the lack of progress in making divine energy spells, Shiro had gotten used to enhancing her spells so the time wasn’t wasted. During the weeks of training, she had noticed that the crystals were becoming foggier over time but there was nothing she could do other than wait.
In the last week of training, she heard a shattering sound in her mana realm as two notifications appeared on her interface.
