"Divinity, huh? Well, I suspect it."
Yeah. I can feel a foreign yet familiar energy start to grow inside my body and soul. I suspect that this energy is Divinity because it feels familiar with the one Lord Susanoo released from his body, but I don't have enough ego to claim it out loud.
It looks like I was right.
"What kind of divinity is it? It feels very different from what I feel from Lord Susanoo."
"Of course it is different."
I look to the side and see Yasaka walk toward . It looks like she is done cleaning her body of all the sand from the Great Sand War.
"Lord Susanoo is an old God. His divinity is like Storm and Sea itself from age and faith. If you truly have the seed of divinity, yours will feel young and not yet have any identity to it."
Zelretch nods his head and says.
"The lady is correct. Yours is only a seed and has yet to beco a tree. It will grow into sothing more defined, and you will receive a domain."
"Right. I understand. So, what should I do?"
I look at Yasaka, who shrugs and says.
"Nothing. Divinity grows with ti and faith. The more faith you gather, the faster the divinity grows."
"Oh, well. That is good to know. I am too lazy to do anything about all that."
"Good, because I will slap your head if you beco like those crazy cultists the mundane people like to beco."
"The one who thinks they are the sons of God or sothing?"
"That's the one."
"Yeah. I will not try that."
I don't have enough ego to be like those people. They are too crazy even for . I shake my head and look at Zelretch.
"Anyway, do you need sothing, Zelretch?"
"I co here to take you back to my world. Gaia is getting restless and keeps sending signals to get you back to my world. It is annoying. It is like hearing a fire alarm blaring next to your ear."
"When do you want to return? I have a few days of free ti. I also want to let Yasaka visit your world."
I look at Yasaka, who perks up at my words.
"Can I? I wonder what kind of world is your world."
The old vampire looks at her and says.
"Are you sure? My world is like your world, you know? Except that no supernatural races stay on Earth. You will reach the outer layer of the world while the supernatural races will stay in the inner layer of the world."
"Outer layer? Inner layer? What's that?"
Right. Yasaka does not know that the Nasuverse is a very complex universe. Even the Earth is not a simple rock that evolves with ti.
"Our Earth is different from this world. Our world is more supernaturally inclined than this world. After the appearance of humans, the planet started to change. At first, it is subtle, but soon, the planet changes into what humans understand. Humans have started to create a law of physics, and that law has started to apply to the planet. Humans as a whole start to believe, and that belief changes the world itself."
"That is… dangerous. If they believe the planet is nothing but rock floating in space… all supernatural races will disappear."
"Exactly. That is why the Inner Layer was created. This is where they stay and live their life. This is the layer where the Age of Gods still holds strong, and the laws of humanity imposed upon the planet do not appear. However, as the planet slowly dies because of the rampant destruction, the inner layer is also affected."
I look at Zelretch and say.
"How affected is it?"
"Around 45% of supernatural races are gone from the inner layer. However, the inner layer starts to bloom once again after you give a little bit of life back to the planet."
"What happens when I am done healing the planet?"
"Humanity will stay on Earth and never leave the solar system. At least before they can enter the Type 2 Civilization."
"Wait. Really?"
Zelretch looks at right in the eyes and says.
"There is a reason why Gaia hates Foreigner, Ryan. The Void is the place you don't dwell for too long, for it is full of terror and madness. My Magic is a small part of the thing that holds back the creatures from the void from entering the Material World and wreaking havoc. Even with that power, so still slip out of the crack."
"Then why am I allowed to enter your world?"
"First, you are human or at least have human origin. Second, . If you arrive without , Gaia and Alaya will send their minions to question your intention or attack you if they are annoyed at your presence. The fact that you heal the planet also gives you a free pass to enter the planet."
"Right. I guess I need to thank you for protecting ."
"Bah. You are good. You also help . Gaia is happy enough to let take so of the rare material from another world. Previously, I needed to hide it from the planet, and now I can take them without the extra world."
"I see. That is good, then. When can we depart? How about tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow is good because I also want to relax for a mont."
==||==
"Before we go, I need you to prepare, Ryan."
I look at Zelretch and say.
"Why? Are there any enemies on the other side?"
"Enemy? No. The planet will bombard you with tainted energy, you know? A tsunami of energy will co at you. It will be a hundred tis worse than what you experience the first ti you arrive in my world."
"Ah, that. Don't worry. I'm already used to that. It also happened when I first received this upgrade."
"I have a feeling it will be worse. Twice as bad."
"Don't worry. I can handle it."
He nods and looks at Yasaka, who nods her head. We are ready to go. Zelretch nods and waves his hand, opening a portal next to us.
"Lady first."
Yasaka walks through the portal, and I follow her from behind. However, as I take a step through the portal, I can feel a heavy weight appear out of nowhere. Zelretch is not lying. A tsunami of natural energy entered my body. However, it is not the only thing that enters my body and soul.
Tainted Grain also enters my body. It is not as much as the natural energy, but it is still a lot, and all of them are tainted.
I grunt and imdiately take a lotus position to enter a ditative state.
Zelretch is right. This is a whole other level. I can feel the hatred, sickness, and decay from all the energy entering my body.
And I need to purify all of them.
I really bite more than I can chew.
