Agatheina called me through the artifact that she once gave me so we could communicate, the ringing noise filled my ears, so I had to answer.

"Agatheina?"

"Kireina-sama! Big news! It seems that Geggoron had begun some strange plans, and the people of Sunclaw is being held captive by him and mutated into strange creatures…!"

"Oh? So, he is getting a bit desperate… well, should I hurry up? I am currently with my family doing a little trip in… well, I will explain it to you later," I said.

"Those are not the big news, Kireina-sama. The big news is what is happening to Marnet and his children, due to Geggoron's insanity, their children are being turned into monstrosities one after another, they need you to hurry up and defeat Geggoron before all of their children become monsters," said Agatheina.

"Oh? They want me to hurry up…? And where is the compensation for that?"

"Here~! Fufufu," Agatheina laughed, as I felt that my Item Box received several flasks filled with Divinity, most of them related to the Life Attribute.

I opened my Item Box to reveal the items, several long flasks made out of Divine Glass and filled with different colors of Divinity, condensed into a liquid.

"Are these…?"

"They might be small on their own, but they're small pieces of the divinities of most of Marnet's Living Deity children, the progenitors of the different subspecies of dog beastmen! Kireina-sama, please drink it all so you can grow stronger!" said Agatheina.

"Well, this is quite a lot… I am a bit surprised. Very well, I shall hurry up then," I said.

Although I considered that several of them could help my children or wives, I decided to drink them all, and then if necessary, share some of such divinities assimilated into my soul.

They were quite many, and all of them had some Life Attribute Divinity, but as they varied, some had small touches, such as Fire Attribute, Phantom Attribute, Earth Attribute, Wind Attribute, and so on.

[The Levels of the [Ancient Demons and Yokai Phantasmagoric Conjuration Magic; Level 7], [Eclipse & Dawn Magic; Level 3], [Desert Cat Princess Magic; Level 2] Skills have increased!]

Well, I got a few things now… a third pseudo demi divinity seems fitting when I have eaten so many Life Attribute Divinity Fragments.

I suppose that as long as I eat a lot of the same type of fragments, they will end up converging into a Pseudo Demi Divinity.

I decided to call my family back from the Dream World for now, and quickly discussed the thing with them and our next course of action.

Bilili wanted to come with us, but he was incapable of coming to the real world, such as any other thing originating from the Dream World, but I left a few of my Aura Clones with him.

Bilili held more power than he showed, but because he was a young god, he was not aware of it as much. However, I was planning on using his help to confront Geggoron, the real one, or 'the main body' as his split souls call him.

Using my Dream World, my new Pseudo Divinity related to Nightmares and Bilili's powers, which are connected with me through the blessing we granted to each other, it should be possible to track Geggoron down, but I need to catch him while he is distracted…

It seems that he had moved his Divine Realm above Sunclaw's capital. I will try to find an opportunity to ambush him… and finally, devour him.

Alright, time to get working.

Ah, now that I think about it, I should ask them for their help, some of them had already finished their dungeon explorations.

"Grryyaaaaaa!!!"

The screeches of countless monstrosities and grotesque monsters filled the forest, as two humanoid shadows rushed through the shadows created by the tall trees that made up most of the outskirts of Sunclaw and Moonfang.

"These monsters… weren't they people some seconds ago?!" said one of the figures, a blue-eyed and white-haired masked wolf beastmen, the 'Eclipse Blade Werewolf Paladin', Eifert of the Sunclaw Kingdom.

"And the sky… I am sure that it was a bright day with a blue sky as clear as spring water… T-This is… the power of that Demon God that people were worshiping?! What is it planning to do now? As it is finally gone insane?" asked the other figure, with blue eyes and azure long hair, alongside long fox hairs and a fluffy tail, the 'Sun Blade Werefox Samurai', Haruko of the Sunclaw Kingdom.

Both Heroes were perhaps one of the only survivors of the Sunclaw Kingdom that have not fallen into Geggoron's grasp. They had tried to run towards the Moonfang Kingdom to alert about the events happening in Sunclaw and receive support from their neighbor Kingdom.

However, they ended up having to do many twists and turns in their travels as they fought against more and more of Geggoron's cult members and brainwashed soldiers, alongside Monstrosities and Nightmare Hunters.

The two Heroes were exhausted, their armor was into pieces and their weapons were barely standing, as they were of Legendary Rank… but even Legendary Rank weapons seemed to be affected by Geggoron's divinity.

And as they were refuging themselves inside a small village, the sky suddenly turned dark, as a strange and ominous barrier covered almost the entire territory of Sunclaw.

Eifert and Haruko tried to calm down the civilians, but as they did, the dark sky trembled, and small nightmarish creatures with the appearance of dark specters began to take over the people, not even children were spared.

They all then cried in agony as their bodies began to break apart and regenerate at the same time, they transformed into monstrosities, grotesque creatures that the two Heroes have been confronting these last days.

Eifert was suddenly struck down by a large black fireball thrown by a grotesque octopus-like fleshy monster that used to be a whole family, that mutated and merged into a stronger monster.

Opening its wide jaws filled with sharp fangs, the creature glanced at Eifert, smiling.

"Gyagyagya!" it laughed.

"S-Shit!���

Eifert's sword was thrown away when he fell to his knees, and his right leg was burned and inflicted with a strange curse that made his body lethargic.

The grotesque monstrosity approached Eifert as it slowly moved its tentacles towards him.

"Hiyaaaaa!"

Haruko appeared out of the darkness, raising her long katana, which was covered in azure flames, unleashing hundreds of consecutive slashes upon the grotesque monster.

Flash! Flash!

"Grryyaaaa!"

The blazing slashes pierced the flesh of the grotesque aberration and cut it into pieces, Haruko grabbed on to the lethargic Eifert as she kept running through the forest.

"Haruko… thanks, but my sword…!" said Eifert.

"Sigh, you're such a baby…" muttered Haruko, rushing towards the left and grabbing on Eifert's sword.

However, another monster in the form of a wolf covered in dark armor appeared behind Haruko.

"Graaaawwwl! Succumb to Geggoron-sama!"

"Not today!" shouted Haruko, wielding her blade and unleashing thousands of slashes made out of blue flames.

Slash! Slash!

The flames pierced the wolf-like creature's armor, melting its exoskeleton.

"GRAAAAA!"

"Here! Piercing Light Bullet!" shouted the Eifert, conjuring a Light Attribute spell that summoned spheres of piercing light that fell over the wolf-like monstrosity. 

Flash! Flash! Flash!

The spheres exploded in the wolf-like creature as it shrieked in agony and then fell over the ground, seemingly dead.

Haruko then rushed through the forest, trying to find an opening to see things clearly, but more and more creature's cries and shrieks filled their surroundings.

As both Heroes escaped the forest, their route was blocked by a large wall made out of pure and nightmarish darkness… overwhelming energy that the Heroes could not comprehend.

"Ugh…! W-What is this?!"

Haruko tried to pierce the darkness, but it was impossible, as many techniques and spells as she released over it, it would not even falter.

And as she did… the creatures were closer and closer.

"Is this… the end?" she thought.

"We never had a chance… everything is hopeless… Marnet-sama, where are you?" wondered Eifert, praying to Marnet, the Demigod of Canine Beastmen and the father of them all.

"No… Eifert, let's fight… to the end!" shouted Haruko, wielding her katana and releasing blazing Aura from her body.

"It's hopeless for me… you might have a chance, but I am done for, my leg is broken at this point, and it is burned as well. To make it worse, I was cursed, and I have become extremely slow… Use me as bait so you can win sometimes. If you can run around the barrier, you might find some opening on it and escape" said Eifert, with a mild smile, the mask covering his face cracked, revealing his handsome appearance.

"Eifert… I would never…! No! I will never leave a comrade behind…" muttered Haruko.

"Gggrrryyaaaaaaaa!"

"There they are! Capture them! Gahahaha!"

"Gyahahaha! They shall become fine vessels for Geggoron-sama!"

The monstrosities not only were overwhelmingly strong but were even capable of speaking and communicating with each other. Due to their connection with Geggoron's main body, they received direct orders from him.

"Haruko… You can't… you must run away, your life would only be wasted in here, don't be foolish!" shouted Eifert.

"No! Eifert, let us fight, to the end! Like true warriors!" said Haruko, as her sight was greeted by the monstrosities finally emerging from within the forest's darkness.

"Haruko, don't be foolish!" shouted Eifert, as Haruko rushed towards the monsters.

"Hiyaaaaaaaa!" 

Haruko began to unleash dozens of techniques, one after another, defeating many monstrosities in a berserk frenzy, her body was completely covered in black blood and sweat, her muscles became stiff, yet she forced them to move through buffs and skills. Her Aura faltered, but she drank Mana Potions for it to forcibly recover.

Eifert could not stay watching, he used all of his capabilities to unleash spells and abilities while being tied to Haruko's back. Even if he could not walk anymore, Haruko forced him to fight. 

The monsters died one after another… but more and more appeared until the pair was surrounded by hundreds of them.

Haruko felt that she had enough Mana for a few more techniques, and she would be done for. Meanwhile, Eifert had already run out of Mana.

"Gyagyagyahaha! You're done for!" shouted the monstrosities, rushing towards the pair, jumping over them!

"Hiiiyaaaaaa!" shouted Haruko, releasing her last techniques. Slashing blue blazes pieced the monstrosities, opening some space for her to move.

But her body could not move anymore, her muscles were too stiff, she fell to the ground, gasping.

"Aghh…!"

"Haruko!"

The monstrosities glanced at the despairing pair, their wide and deformed mouths laughing eerily.

"Gygygygy! Capture them and convert them into believers of the great Geggoron-sama!!!" shouted a monstrosity with the appearance of an ominous bug with twelve sharp legs.

A giant made out of fleshy muscles extended its large hands towards the pair.

"Don't worry, it will be quick! Don't resis-"

Clash!

A thunderous sound filled the entire world. Even the monstrosities became frozen as they moved their grotesque heads towards the origin of the sound.

Gigantic, sharp claws covered in countless eyes, mouths, and sharp fangs alongside a hard dark-colored armor-like exoskeleton suddenly broke apart through the nightmarish barrier made by Geggoron himself.

"…Eh?"

"W-What is that?!"

"T-That's not… Geggoron-sama!"

Although the creature was grotesque, even more, frightening than the monstrosities, it had the soothing voice of a mature woman. 

"Knock, knock~ Geggoron, I've come to pay you a visit!" it said.

Clash!

Another claw appeared, breaking apart a large hole in the Nightmarish Barrier, as a large group of people began to rush through the gaps… A pair of giant wolves rushed towards Haruko and Eifert, the monstrosities glancing at the two with fright.

One was a wolf above ten meters tall with three heads, covered in dark and gray fur. It had large horns in each head, alongside the third eye in their foreheads. Dark spikes decorated his entire body. It ran through the ground like a crazed hound, releasing an Aura of eternal darkness.

The other was a wolf of almost the same size as the previous one, with a single head but whose body was covered in bright, golden fur, it had large golden horns and shining yellow eyes. It flew through the skies with long and feathered white wings, releasing an Aura of brightness.

"It has been long since we had a war!" laughed the three-headed wolf.

"Indeed! Let us not disappoint Master!" said the golden wolf.
