Agatha glanced at the battlefield while squinting her eyes, sitting over her large floating throne made of divine materials, she looked like the governor of all heavens.
She noticed what just happened, Kireina had suddenly come with another party… and merged together with another of her clones.
"What is this demon planning? Heh… No matter what you plan to do… It is all useless anyways… With the power I have… My victory is secured… Come at any time…" she laughed.
Her servants around her, the Seven Virtues, looked at the war from above, their essences leaking the powerful Virtues gifted to them…
The war continued with large explosions resonating all across the skies, the army of Heroic Gods was coordinate excellently, as if they had trained since they were born together to fight like this!
Their bravery was unmatched, but Kireina's army held the upper hand in raw power!
CLASH!
One of the Heroic Gods was crushed to death and splattered across the skies, his soul was also destroyed by an enormous scorpion-shaped mech creature piloted by Nixephine.
BOOOMMM!
Another two Heroic Gods were killed right after by an enormous bird mech piloted by one of Kireina's wives, the Harpy Great Goddess Nephiana!
Her storming winds easily destroyed the two Heroic Gods, devouring them in the process!
"Huh? So weird, it barely gave me any power…" she muttered, wondering what was happening.
All of Kireina's strongest allies were fighting, and her wives and some of her children were also putting a big fight in the frontlines, many Heroic Gods started to fall like flies but many of her army felt like something was strange, something was odd.
They were devouring them, but they were getting no power at all! Why?
Kireina commanded everyone while floating in midair, her gloriously beautiful body released enormous quantities of divinities stacked up together into a monstrous aura that twisted space and time around her.
Her flashing crimson-red eyes inspected the battlefield as she saw her army slowly pushing forward. She didn't wanted to fight Agatha yet because having so many annoying flies with her would prove to be problematic, as she had already experienced it when she fought Ova.
She used her powerful eyes as she created hundreds of crimson-red eyes across her enormous nightmarish aura, instantly killing dozens of Heroic Gods who dared to look at her eyes through the mystical power of her Curses and Eyes, which she had developed since she got the Spider's 8 Eyes Skill as a tiny caterpillar!
Back then, they were merely a way to help her look better, but they had developed to the point of fusing with countless other powers and even Bubu's Daos, inflicting instant destruction to anything below her Realm or below her total power as long as they looked at her!
As she killed them instantly, she also devoured them instantly…!
But…
"Hm? Nothing? What is this?"
She glanced at Agatha as she smiled smugly from very far away, an enormous barrier was erected around her so strong that even Kireina doubted she would be able to destroy it in an instant, and would at least take a few seconds, enough for Agatha to attack her, because of this, she was being wary and staying at the sides, looking at the battle develop.
But to her surprise, something wrong was going on, and Kireina noticed it at long last when she ate the gods she instantly killed.
They didn't had any flavor; it was as if she ate air.
"This woman… what is this army?" wondered Kireina.
Agatha smiled back at her and raised an eyebrow, she hit the floor beneath her throne three times.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
And as if time reversed itself, all those that had died from her army were brought back to life, flashing lights of bright yellow-gold color emerged where they had last died, and they… materialized out of nowhere.
"Eh?!"
Everyone was left shocked!
Agatha smiled at this…
Kireina could only recall Ova's power into this, the Dao of Summoning… But this was different, this power was essentially something completely different!
What was this?
It felt strange, Kireina felt the scent within the essence left… it was definitely not normal.
"I've seen mortals revive other members of their group through the power of Holy Light Magic, but this was essentially completely different! How was she capable of reviving gods- no, Great Gods from all things like nothing?! This just… It doesn't make any sense!" said Zehe at the side of Kireina.
"Right? It's fishy…" said Gaby.
"It must have to be the reason why we didn't felt any flavor from them, nor power guuu…" said Rimuru.
"Kireina, what is it? Do you know something?" asked Brontes.
"Maybe she's like Ova?" asked Nesiphae.
Ova inside of Kireina's divine realm watched at this scene unfold.
"If you have my memories, you should know what this is… But even then, it weird, it is way better than before, and enhanced by a tenfold their power too." Said Ova.
"Indeed, I know what it is… This is her power, the power of her divinity, Agatha's Divinity is that of Rebirth and Wisdom. As it states, she has a special Divine Technique that she can use to… Revive those she had made a soul connection with. Essentially speaking, I knew this would happen, but even then, it is way stronger and better than her original power… It allows those that fall in battle to be revived by her power no matter what. Their power is left intact too, they're essential immortal as long as they're fighting for her, this is why they're so reckless and brave, they know their holy mother will revive them anyways!" said Kireina.
"What?!" cried Nesiphae.
"Incredible…" said Zehe.
"GUEEH! How are we even going to win then?!" asked Rimuru.
"But you said its even better?" asked Brontes.
"Indeed. The Cosmic Dao that they gave to her must aid her in this divine technique somehow. Her heroic gods had come back even stronger than before, each time they die… they might come back even stronger." Said Kireina.
BOOM!
The world shock as the war continued, explosions ensued as Kireina revealed the truth.
"A Dao… of Rebirth?" asked Zehe, glancing at Agatha as if she were looking at something completely nonsensical…
"How can we kill something that will never die?" asked Rimuru.
"Technically, she can die, and everyone with her will do so too." Said Kireina.
"How?" asked Brontes.
"I guess we can't stay here any longer, we'll charge up front while our army distracts the rest of her army. It is the only option at the end. I know a way to stop this, but I have to get closer to her. And well, she CAN die, it is fairly simple, I have to just crush her Origin Core and take her Dao by force." Said Kireina.
"That's… a bit reckless…" said Zehe.
"Well, when hasn't she not been reckless?" asked Nesiphae.
"It is in our nature guu!" said Rimuru.
"Let's do it, together!" said Gaby, as her slime pet Gubo emerged in her shoulder.
"Gubo! Together!"
"Hmph… I guess we have no choice. Though… what about those with her? They have… Virtues! And are also Great Gods…" said Brontes.
"Indeed! She has a whole specialized group of Great Gods with Virtues with her. I want you to distract them while I negate her power through my unique method, after this happens, you'll have the opportunity to kill them forever." Said Kireina.
"Can we do it?" wondered Gaby while gritting her teeth.
"Don't worry, you won't fight them alone. While I am busy with Agatha, you'll go with our children." Said Kireina, in a second, all of her wives' children emerged, all packed up with Totems and several powers infused into them!
Ryo, Amiphossia, Valentia, Aarae, Ailine, Vudia,
"We are ready!" said Ryo.
"But Ryo! I don't want you to risk yourself…" sighed Zehe.
"Mom, I insisted to mother this whole time. We have grown strong! We are strong enough to fight at your side now… Let me show that I can finally be at your side… at the side of all of you… I will make it worth all the train I have! After all, I got a son waiting for me, I can't possibly lose." Said Ryo.
"Ryo…"
"Indeed! It's about time we finish this story. We still gotta do something more important than this war, like saving grandma!" said Amiphossia.
"You've grown a lot, sweetie." Said Nesiphae.
"Hehe, I learned from the best!" said Amiphossia.
"Fufu, its looking like an interesting fight, right, mom? Let's do it like family!" said Valentia.
"If I am with big sis and mom, I believe I can pull through…" said Aarae.
"My babies… Ah, I guess you are no longer babies, right? I still do remember when you two were just little fishes… Alright! I trust your power! We can pull through together, like you said, Aarae!" said Gaby.
"Mommy, let me protect you from all those evildoers, guuu!" said Ailine.
"Guu… Ailine-chan! Alright! Let's do it together!" said Rimuru.
"El Dorado is ready mama! Let's charge together! Maybe I can't be big like you, but I can be beeg with El Dorado!" said Vudia, as she came with her gigantic mech gold golem which had received several upgrades and had become an ultimate artifact of Great Divine-Rank!
"With such a reassuring companion, I cannot help but be confident in our victory." Said Brontes with a bright smile.
They were all ready!
Although some were missing… But they were already with their mothers fighting down there, alongside Kireina too, with her many bodies, she never left her family alone. Never!
And there were some trump cards waiting to emerge within her divine realm too!
Kireina smiled directly at Agatha, as everyone released their divine auras.
Agatha noticed her.
"Oh? You're finally going to come? Despite seeing the power of Rebirth, you're not running away like I expected, but you plan to come closer?" she asked as loud as possible, her voice resonated through the entire battlefield! The gods looked at her with surprise, her flashing eyes looked like two suns atop the heavens!
"Of course, I cannot kick your ass if I don't come closer, Agatha." Said Kireina, her crimson-red eyes shone even brighter, like two crimson moons that illuminated the eternal darkness emanated by her aura of monstrous abyssal chaos!
TRUUUUMMM!
A tremor happened all across the Realm of Vida; the entire Realm was trembling! The impact between these two monstrous Great Goddesses' Divine Auras was so strong that even space and time couldn't hold on their shockwaves much longer!
Agatha smiled at Kireina's words.
"Oh, really… Then get as closer as you need to."
RUMBLE!
The world trembled once more!
The empty continents broke apart, flames came from within the depths of the Realm!
It was as if… the entire Realm was recognizing such a terrifying confrontation!
