Chapter 520 - Plans
-----
As the Split souls explained to their family and allies about their next course of actions, Ismene from all people ended asking an important question.
"But if at the end you eat Bestellen… who will maintain Mirror Kritias from being destroyed by a lack of attribute pillar gods?
" asked Ismene.
Certainly, it was an important question. After all, if they were to eat Bestellen, where would the entire Mirror Kritias go?
Without Bestellen being the last pillar to all the attributes, the entire world would certainly be destroyed! It was a frightening thing to think about.
So how would the Mirror Kritias keep being there if the pillar just disappears?
"Well, that's a simple answer,
" said Ervas.
"After we assimilate Bestellen, we'll use the power we got to maintain Mirror Kritias for a bit of time and slowly fuse our souls with it… Most probably it might emerge in here,
" said Veronica.
"I see… Wait, what?!
" asked Ismene.
"As you can see, we are already fused with many pieces of Kelsus and Anir, these pieces came from the Demon God-King, but are virtually from these two Origin Gods as well. After all, the Demon God-King, from all the info we gathered, was born spontaneously from the world itself… Meaning that the two corpses are still somehow alive. The entire world of Kritias, both the original and the Mirror Version are made of the corpses of these Gods…
" said Ervas.
"And it seems that they had acquired some kind of consciousness. We could call this Kritias' Will, or maybe both Kelsus and Anir Wills? I don't know…
" said Veronica.
"But by watching over Mirror Kritias, we discovered that there was some kind of will within this world which had awakened a few hundred years ago,
" said Ervas.
"Both of these worlds, the normal and mirror possess what's called Origin Core. These Origin Cores are the crystallization of the world's energies and its center and core. If we can reach it, we are confident about infusing our souls into it and fuse with it, possibly eat it, maybe,
" said Veronica.
"In resume, don't worry, we got this,
" said Ervas, giving a thumbs up.
Everyone sighed, as they were not understanding half of what they were talking only for a few exceptions.
"I suppose that's that, we can't discuss it anymore. We have to just trust them,
" said Jason.
"Indeed, let's trust them,
" said Ismene.
"For now, what will we do? We'll get there immediately?
" asked Gaius.
"Yes, we'll get there right away,
" said Ervas.
"Right away, pekoo?! Can't we wait a bit to get used to our powers?
" asked Pekorina.
"Nope, there's no time at all!
" said Veronica, as their Divine Realm suddenly began to be reabsorbed into their divine souls, and the three appeared outside, within the outer cosmos.
However, they were at the same time inside the Divine Realm… this was thanks to their phantom form Spells
/Skills.
The trio emerged in the outer cosmos as Kireina quickly began to manipulate space-time.
"Let's get going, shall we?
" she asked, fusing her soul with the two split souls as they created a connection with Mirror Kritias, the world connected to their transmigration cycle!
FLASH!
Suddenly, an enormous gate in space-time emerged, which would lead them straight into the outer space within Mirror Kritias!
"Let's go!
"
The trio entered there, as, within their divine realm, a discussion with their phantom forms happened.
Daniel, a former Hero, and the shield of Eustace was asking them something.
"My lords… I know I am in no position to ask this… but… will you really kill all… the coworkers?
" asked Daniel, after the time skip, he had evolved and become an enormous ant, the size of an elephant, and he was covered by many plates of the silver exoskeleton, looking like a giant walking tank.
"Certainly, we'll kill all those that get in our way,
" said Ervas.
"Don't worry, those that won't get in our way won't' die. Eustace and his family are not even there…
" said Veronica.
"Oh… I… see…
" sighed Daniel, he knew he couldn't go against their wishes, he was still repenting for what he did.
"However, we won't destroy their souls,
" said Ervas.
"EH?
" asked Daniel.
"Well, we will, but then we'll reconstruct them,
" said Veronica.
"What? How?
" asked Daniel.
"Very easy to do now, as we had become as strong as Hekaton in terms of soul manipulation…
" said Ervas.
"What we will do is eat the souls, shatter them, get all the powers from it, and then reconstruct them without the powers,
" said Veronica.
"It will be a painful experience and it might cause some mental traumas, but those traumas will also go away when we reconstruct them,
" said Ervas.
"After that, we can either revive them, giving them new bodies similar to the original ones, or as monsters or whatever, or we can put them into the transmigration cycle and let it do its thing, randomly reincarnating them somewhere else,
" said Veronica.
"I-I see… That's… certainly good, thank you for considering what I asked… I am really thank you. I and my family shall work as hard as we can to help out!
" said Daniel.
"We are counting on you then,
" said Ervas and Veronica.
After the conversations, Veronica began to create several new sets of equipment for everyone, using her powerful creation powers and Art Goddess Skill, she was able to easily create top tier equipment infused with magic and even pieces of her soul ad that of Ervas, which they named Soul Equipment and Soul Weapons!
And even more, these were fused with the already existing cursed equipment that everyone possessed, such as Axe-chan, who got a super upgrade like all the cursed equipment infused with souls, which everyone had been using. Cursed Equipment and Weapons held a lot of power as they had statuses and could develop skills to aid their wielders.
Now that they were fused with this Soul Equipment and Weapons, all of them became even stronger, receiving a boost they were unable to get like everyone else due to the nature of their material bodies.
As everyone checked out their new equipment, Ervas and Veronica quickly decided to change Jobs.
