[Spells: [Dark Nightmare], [Uneasy Nightmare]
When I woke up, I felt as if my Divinity had suddenly become a bit stronger.
Last night a hostile God of some kind tried to interrupt my Vudia's good sleep, so I quickly went towards her dream the moment she cried for my help.
It seems that due to the connection between bloodlines that I possess with my children, I can move to their dreams. This is similar to Jormungandr who had visited my dreams when I obtained his bloodline, back then in the Forsaken Labyrinth.
The moment she called upon me in her dreams, I have suddenly moved away from my current dreams and summoned to hers. This was extremely useful, no one that possesses my lineage or perhaps my blessing can be affected by outside forces without me interrupting the ones disrupting the anymore.
And to top it all, that god was quite tasty. I chopped a large piece of his divinity before he left, so I feasted on him alongside Vudia, she seemed to have an affinity of some kind with it, so she ate a large chunk as well, probably gaining something similar to me.
About my second body, we had merged back into one after the classes ended yesterday. So, I was not weakened or anything when we fought against the strange god, which name I presume is 'Geggoron', based on what the System says about his divinity fragment.
And what is this about nightmares? I can really affect dreams with nightmares now…?
I am sure that Vudia had obtained something similar as well, and perhaps 'Divinity Devouring' too, so I should test it out with her.
Perhaps teaching my children 'Divinity Devouring' by making them eat a small piece of my divine soul should do the trick. My divinity covers my entire soul, which can regenerate easily by consuming other souls, so I won't get permanently affected by giving them a few pieces, unless I were to extract a large chunk all at once, like the other gods. But even they are capable of regenerating that lost piece of soul with some time.
Vudia seemed to have woke up before everyone else and came towards me.
"Mommy, I'm still weird!" she said.
Her golden eye was still crimson red, her bright brown hair was black, and her golden skin had become paler. Alongside this, her yellow wings turned black and red.
It seems that due to the fight yesterday, she had become too angry, and unleashed her inner talent. Resulting in this interesting change of her appearance… or colors, she had the same height and size, not even her little white horn had grown or something else.
"Calm down Vudia, I don't think it's that bad… I am sure that you will be able to go back to your original appearance if you calm down, my baby" I said, hugging my daughter and caressing her silky black hair.
She seemed to like my warm embrace, resting her head in my shoulders.
"I don't like these colors… they're too gloomy…" she murmured.
"Calm down, it is fine… I do not think it's that bad! You are my daughter after all. What you have awakened is not something ugly, but strong! You have finally awakened your vampire side, something that you inherited from me" I said.
"My vampire… side?" asked Vudia.
"Indeed! I have often seen you turn your golden eye into a crimson red color when you drank too much blood, your fangs would also grow. Now it seems that you have achieved the complete transformation! It is something to celebrate, not to be sad about" I said, as I caressed her hair and gave her a peek in her cheeks.
"Really? I am not ugly?" she asked.
"Of course not! Why would you ever think that my baby? You are one of the most beautiful princesses in this entire Realm! Your new appearance makes you even more beautiful. Look! Now you have the same eye colors as me! We are the same! Even our wings are similar, see?" I said, as I showed Vudia my eyes from close and then flapped my butterfly wings.
"I-Its true… I am like mommy now! I was like mother (Brontes)… but now I can also be like mommy (Kireina)?"
"That is right my love, everything is okay, you will always be my beloved daughter, no matter what your appearance changes into. And I am sure that everyone else would agree and think the same in here" I said. Incidentally, everyone had begun to wake up. Ailine was the first one to wake up and notice Vudia's new appearance.
"Uwah! Vudia-san, you are so cool! How did you change like that?!" asked Ailine, her rainbow eyes shining brightly.
"I don't know, nee-san… I just got very angry! And then it happened!" said Vudia, she had already gained back her enthusiasm.
"I love your crimson eye! It's like mommy! Are you a vampire now? Can you suck blood?" asked Ailine.
"I can! I can also manipulate blood… look!" said Vudia, as she conjured a Blood Attribute spell and called upon a floating mass of blood which she changed into different shapes, such as needles or her small golems.
"Maybe you could do blood golems now? That's so cool! I want to awaken my Vampire side as well!" said Ailine.
"But Ailine, you can already use Blood magic!" I said.
"Well, yes… but it's different than innate talent, I only draw it from my Color Magic, mommy!" said Ailine.
"I see… so it's kind of like the same, but not… Wait, no, I don't get it. Anyways, Vudia should be able to change back to her original appearance whenever she relaxes fully and feels comfortable with herself… For now, I would like to ask you my baby if you obtained some new Skills after the dreams we had together?" I asked Vudia.
"Ah… I got… something called Divi… Divinity Devouring! And Nightmare Magic! Although I don't know how to use it" said Vudia.
So by having shared the meal with my daughter, she obtained a part of Geggoron's powers as well, this is very interesting information… perhaps I should tell Redgaria?
It seems that her mortal body is also capable of consuming the divinity of others. This is further proven as she obtained 'Divinity Devouring' Skill.
Brontes and Rimuru alongside Zehe were already glancing at Vudia with a little bit of confusion.
"Vudia-chan…? Guu… did you learned how to shapeshift?" asked Rimuru.
"She seems to have a slightly different aura, a bit more intimidating as well. I can detect Dark and Blood Attribute from within her… I've never seen a spirit of the blood attribute before…" analyzed Zehe.
"Vudia…? You have become very… cool! You're like Kireina" said Brontes.
"Ah, mother you don't mind my appearance?" asked Vudia.
"Hm? Why would I? You seem to have become very strong now, so it is fine" said Brontes, without putting much thought into it.
"Haah… It seems that I was just overthinking things…" said Vudia, her entire body suddenly shined brightly as she changed back to her original appearance.
"Oh, you changed! How did you do that? So cool!" said Ailine.
"Impressive, guu! So dazzling, Vudia-chan!" said Rimuru.
"So you can also change back to your original form, and your aura had suddenly changed back! This is unprecedented… Vudia-chan is really a talented girl" analyzed Zehe.
"Yeah, that's my baby," said Brontes, hugging Vudia with her large and burly arms, the embrace of her two mothers made the little princess very happy.
"Hmm, perhaps we should tell them about what happened last night, Vudia," I said.
"Okay…" muttered Vudia.
As we had breakfast, I explained to my family about the sudden attack of what I assumed was a Nightmare Attribute God who tried to assault Vudia in her dreams.
Also, I decided to call on Agatheina and the other gods through her artifact, and they joined in the conversation by talking over the artifact.
"It must have been Geggoron! That bastard! Daring to touch my master's daughter?! Only death and suffering will await him! Kireina-sama, let me crush him by myself! You don't need to bother with the pest!" shouted Agatheina.
"Agatheina, I am just as furious as you, but you shouldn't waste your Divine Energy leisurely, let's think of a plan together before doing anything," said Morpheus.
"Grr… I have to agree with Agatheina in this one, brother! I really want to crush that gathering of smokes right about now!" roared Marnet, seemingly baring his fangs. Although I could not see him.
"You two calm down already… I am just as angry; I cannot believe that he would dare break the boundaries we had created over Kireina's Empire" said Maeralya.
"Boundaries?" I asked, the rest of my family were just as confused.
"Oh right, I suppose we never told you… Due to our recent moves and allying with you, we created a barrier with our powers surrounding a large chunk of the Grand Forest and its surrounding area. We made it so no other gods would dare come here and wreak havoc if they were to have some grudge against you or saw you as their enemy" said Hodhyl, the Wyvern Goddess of Nature.
"Yeah, we just made it like three days ago, it was a tiring job and a lot of our Living Deity Children had to help out," said Merveim, the Wyvern God of Strength.
"I came out with the idea, Kireina-sama!" said Agatheina, trying to get my attention.
"Well, it was all of us that came out with it, don't steal the credit, grandmother," said Levana.
"But even when we made the barrier and planted our Divine Realms above the Empire… we cannot protect boundaries such as dreams and dreamscapes… I feel quite powerless, without having any opportunity to help Vudia-chan when she most needed it," said Agatheina.
"Don't worry, aunt Agatheina! I am fine, mommy was enough to beat that bully!" said Vudia.
"I'm glad, Vudia-chan… I can see that you have awakened Vampire powers. Would you like my blessing?" asked Agatheina.
"Blessing…?" wondered Vudia.
"Agatheina! Stop offering blessings and don't go off-topic, please" said Hodhyl.
"Anyways, we are glad that you managed to fend him off, I suppose he isn't as strong while on his dream avatar, which is not his real body neither his soul, it was just his consciousness and part of his divinity," said Morpheus.
"Morpheus-sama seems to know a lot about that Demon Demigod?" asked Sofelaia.
"Oh, well yes, my child, Agatheina informed us about a few problematic demon gods who had become 'Loner Gods' and wonder the Realm doing whatever they please," said Morpheus.
"We also knew about him; he was an ally of one of our siblings that betrayed our original Pantheon…" muttered Merveim.
"He's quite the problematic bastard! I knew that he was behind Maeralya's and Marnet's Kingdom troubles" said Hodhyl.
"I really did not imagine that it could be a god that was messing up with our people, but it now makes a lot of sense…" muttered Maeralya.
"That's right! Now that we know who it is, let's crush him!" roared Marnet.
"Easy there, Marnet. Let us think things carefully, we also need to consider Kireina and her family feelings and opinions" said Morpheus.
"Well, if it's really him… then how did he guess that one day I would come to end his tyranny over you guys Kingdoms?"
"He probably connected the dots, and probably assumed that you would eventually go there to end him, just as you did with Megusan through Morpheus's request," said Maeralya.
"Well, it's not like I forced Kireina to do anything… but I suppose it's true," said Morpheus.
"I see how it is… but why the hurry? And why did he target my daughter?" I asked.
"This is just an assumption, but it may be because he wanted to provoke all of us, including you," said Levana.
"Well, it ended very pathetically for him, with a large chunk of his divinity bitten off! Haha!" laughed Merveim.
"Does he want me to go there quickly? Perhaps he devised a strategy or made several traps and powerful vessels…" I said.
"That must be the case," said Morpheus.
"Well, although we are conflicted, we cannot rush you into it, Kireina, take your time to go there," said Maeralya.
"Indeed, do not mind my rage, I am just a wild dog sometimes. We are gods, we are accustomed to waiting and having patience" said Marnet.
"Don't worry, I've already decided it. He really did provoke me, daring on trying to touch my daughter… I will make sure to eat him whole this time. I will get going in a week, when I have things done in here, some of my children are about to be born," I said.
"I see… thank you very much for your consideration, Kireina," said Maeralya.
"Indeed, you are a very considerate and benevolent person, we should also be more patient. Do not rush yourself and take good care of your family. You are a splendid role-model." said Marnet.
Hmm… well, I am doing it for the rewards and also to save the population so they can join my Empire and give me more faith and worship, which means more strength. But I will take it as they say.
"Don't worry, we are allies after all"
"Kireina-sama, so benevolent! You are a true goddess!" said Agatheina.
"Yeah… Thanks…"
