[A being who has a domain that is an entirely different world on its own,
What do you think I am?]
[A-A d-different w-world…?]
"…"
"…"
The won stared at the screen in front of them with dumbfounded looks on their faces. No one dared to say anything, as if scared that Neremoth might hear them.
However, after a long, long silence, Aisha couldn't hold back any longer and—
"…you think he will buy it?"
The Succubus questioned as she tilted her head toward her mother.
"It… seems like he is…?"
Eisheth answered. Even she seed confused by what was happening. It wasn't just her, everyone else was the sa.
"I can't believe he is actually pulling it off."
Edda couldn't hold herself back and laughed out loud.
"A-A d-different w-world…????"
Allura placed her hands on her cheeks and shouted in an exaggerated manner.
"Ahhhh!! He must be an infinity!!"
Edda joined her as well.
"Be silent, will you? He might hear us."
Lyriana spoke with a cautious look on her face.
"He cannot."
Edda waved her hand. She obviously had complete trust in her husband.
"There is no way this is going to work…"
Lyriana muttered. The elf had started biting her nails in anxiety.
This was an Eternal they were talking about, dammit!
An Eternal!!
An Eternal from the Supre World!!!!
One of the strongest beings in the entire Universe! UNIVERSE!!!
They were no longer in their little world where the Ancestral Order regulated everything and they, as re Divines, acted like the rulers. The opponent here wasn't a re Incomplete Divine Stage Cultivator who was having an anger fit because a child taunted him.
This was different.
This was VERY different!!
"Well, this is Nux."
Suddenly, Felberta chuckled.
She had seen this man's complete journey. She had seen him grow with her very eyes, in front of her. This wasn't the first ti he was doing sothing absurd; it won't be the last ti either.
The Eldraeth Progenitor had complete, absolute faith in her husband.
This was her pride as the first wife.
Lyriana stared at her and… suddenly her anxiety started to fade away.
'Huh…?'
It was sothing that surprised even her.
'What…?'
She couldn't understand. Even her increased heartbeat seed to have cald down as she stared at Felberta.
'Did she have a power like this…?'
The elf wondered in her head. She didn't recall her having such an ability. The one who actually had this ability was—
Suddenly, Lyriana turned to glance at Skyla only to find her staring at her. The second wife smiled brightly, as if saying 'everything will be fine, don't worry,' and Lyriana finally realized it.
She nodded at Skyla, as if thanking her. Skyla laughed again as she once again turned towards the screen, watching her husband pull off sothing like this again.
"This is going to work, huh…"
Lyriana muttered. Her eyes fell on Shadow. Out of everyone present here, the one who knew about the situation the most was her.
The rest of the won turned towards Shadow as well and the woman grinned,
"Ten more seconds."
The rest of the won grinned as well. There was still so tension, but with Skyla's presence, it couldn't grow much.
"Five more seconds…"
Shadow inford,
"Four…
Three…
Two…
One and—"
BOOOOOOOOM
A powerful shockwave rippled throughout the Universe, grabbing the won's attention. Every one of them could sense how the Universe was changing, but—
"…huh?"
Suddenly, Shadow's expression changed as she noticed a strange change in her body. Instinctively, she raised her head, staring at… nothingness?
At least that was what everyone else would believe if they followed her gaze. However, as the Soul of the Universe, Shadow was different.
She could sense it.
The birth of the 'Star'.
It was rely a spark at first, but she felt it. It was sothing much different than anything she had ever felt.
Sothing… much stronger.
Sothing… that seed to be connected to her?
No, that wasn't correct. It wasn't the only thing connected to Shadow. As the Universe's Soul and its First Goddess, she was connected to every entity here. Every change here had so effect on her and changed her.
The new 'Star' was no exception—just that… this entity was so strong that the connection she had with it felt much stronger as well.
And…
The change it was making here… was changing her as well.
And this change…
It was unlike anything she had ever felt.
Deep inside her, sothing changed—sothing she could not understand—and before she could even begin to, or inform Nux about this, a familiar warmth spread through her. A warmth that eased all her thoughts. Nux's warmth.
This 'Star'…
Shadow finally realized why it was so strong.
It…
It represented Nux.
In an instant, an extrely beautiful smile appeared on Shadow's face and she just closed her eyes, accepting the 'change' in her.
The star grew brighter, a light rippled through space, and Shadow… her body began to shift.
At first, it was her hair.
Black waves poured from her head like liquid night, and no, it wasn't her usual colorless dark hair. Now, they felt alive, shining like they held galaxies in them. Her strands curled and danced, catching light like the edges of a nebula.
Then her face began to form.
From the smooth blankness, the shape of her brow erged—gently arched, regal, and calm.
Her nose ford, delicate and straight, casting the faintest shadow along the curve of her face. Then her lips ca into being—full, gently parted, with the faintest hint of color. Her jaw was firm and graceful.
Her body filled with light and color. The darkness of her form deepened into a strangely powerful fabric that seed to represent the very Universe itself. Her skin glittered with stars, her limbs curved with a regal grace.
Gold earrings shaped like falling stars dangled from her ears, catching the new star's light with ease despite the ridiculously huge distance between them.
Once the transformation ended, Shadow finally opened her eyes, revealing her striking, glowing violet eyes. The shine in those eyes was deep—endless even—as if each iris held a whole galaxy spiraling quietly inside.
The first thing she saw were her sisters staring at her with dumbfounded looks on their faces.
Shadow also didn't fail to notice that their Universe had now gained color. Her sisters no longer looked like shadows but like they did back in the main Universe.
The sisters in question, however, didn't seem to care about it. Their focus was all on her.
"What the hell…?"
Amaya cursed out loud, clearly not liking the situation.
"Shadow…?"
Lane muttered, unable to believe what she was seeing.
"I got a new body~"
Shadow chuckled, making a 'V' with her fingers as she laughed out loud.
"…please don't do that."
Lane muttered.
"Huh? Why?"
Shadow frowned.
"It doesn't suit your… new look at all…"
Lane's answer, however, only confused Shadow even further.
"Huh??"
"Tsk, such a look doesn't suit you at all!"
Edda snorted.
"I agree."
Aisha nodded.
" too."
Allura nodded as well.
The rest of the won nodded as well.
"Too beautiful. Doesn't look like her at all."
Thyra added, and once again, the rest of the won—especially Amaya—nodded without stop.
"You guys…"
Shadow didn't know how to react.
Should she be offended?
But they were calling her beautiful…
But they were also calling her… ugly?
Is that even possible?
Just how exactly does she look for them to react like this?
Suddenly, she waved her hand. The Power of Genesis gathered around her, forming a mirror, and finally, her eyes fell on… herself.
*Picture*
"That's… ?"
She muttered, blinking her eyes more than once. She even started pulling her cheeks and making strange expressions with her face, and the more she did it,
The stranger the won felt.
Shadow's new look felt… too regal, like a trueborn noble instilled with proper etiquette for decades.
Seeing soone who looks like her act like… this.
It felt too out of place.
"Yep. Doesn't suit her one bit."
Allura nodded, now becoming even surer. The won nodded once again. It was rare for all of them to agree on things, but this… this seed to be sothing that brought them together.
Heck, even Shadow didn't dare refute them.
However, not all won were thinking about this.
"Shadow, you…"
Suddenly, Felberta called out, attracting everyone's attention.
"Hm?"
Shadow, who was currently stretching the skin beneath her right eye, glanced at Felberta and tilted her head. And Felberta…
"How did you use the Energy of Genesis…?"
Felberta questioned, and in an instant, everyone's expression changed—even Shadow's.
"…what?"
Shadow, as the Soul of the Universe, had the deepest connection to it. She could move anywhere in the Universe, and she could make anyone else move anywhere she wanted as well. She had a certain level of authority here, but…
All of this was done through her 'Will'.
She couldn't use any Energies here.
But…
"It seems like I now can…?"
Shadow tilted her head as suddenly, all Ten Primordial Energies materialized around her with just her thought alone, horrifying all the won present here.
"What…?"
