Chapter 2015: Armageddon Gets A Visit

—–

Once I revealed more of the truth, they were left flabbergasted once again by the shocking news. I could take over Dungeon Cores, refine them, and claim them as my own property while infusing their power into my dungeon. Yggdra played a major role in the entire process, benefiting from these cores as if they were additional hearts of her own. This was also part of how she had evolved into such a powerful being.

They also learned about little Andromeda. After Yggdra allowed her to explore, the tiny goddess slowly walked around the flower garden and eventually made her way toward us, where she met another little girl: Esmeralda.

“Awah…” Andromeda sat down and waved her little hands. “Aeeh…”

“Awah!” Esmeralda replied, greeting her happily.

Our parents and Master Felicia remained silent as they watched the adorable interaction between the two babies. Soon the girls began picking flowers and sharing them with each other. Then they started crawling on all fours, chasing butterflies and other insects that fluttered among the blooms.

“Well, I’ll be damned. She really is a little goddess,” my father said. “She has the aura.”

“Yeah, she definitely possesses divinity,” Shade nodded. “Incredible. So there are not three, but four divine beings under Sylphy’s control? And she herself is evolving into one through a completely different method than ours.”

“That seems to be the case,” Nepheline nodded. “Hmm, hey Faylen, what’s gotten into you?”

“I just… I am speechless,” my mother said, suddenly shedding a few tears as she smiled faintly. “Long ago, our entire species—no, the people of this world—longed for hope of this magnitude to bless our lives. Sylphy, you are that hope. You, your friends, and your familiars… you are all living, breathing hope.”

“Mom…” I muttered, surprised by her reaction. “Calm down…”

“Sorry. It is just that when you have learned so much about this world and its past, things can sometimes feel bleak,” my mother replied. “Well, I am glad about this. Was there anything else you needed to show me?”

“Uh, yeah,” I nodded. “Over here. Follow me.”

I opened a portal to the floor leading to Armageddon’s Divine Realm. As we all stepped into the fiery, burning landscape, we unleashed our auras to shield ourselves from the intense heat.

Esmeralda stayed behind with Yggdra and her new friend Andromeda, who continued playing happily together.

“W-What is this?! It is so hot in here!” Nepheline cried.

“Incredible… It is as vast as the first floor—no, even bigger?!” Shade wondered.

“It is massive in here!” my dad exclaimed. “Ah, I feel so attuned to this environment… Is this natural spiritual energy and divine energy flowing through the air? And it is fire attribute too! I-I could cultivate here so easily…”

My mother and Master Felicia stared around in disbelief for a moment, taking in the gigantic environment and the world before their eyes. Then they turned back to me with wide, surprised gazes.

“Sylphy, this is ridiculous. Is this another divine realm?” Felicia asked.

“Yeah. It was made by her. She is up there waiting for us,” I said. “I want everyone to meet her… and please do not get mad.”

“…?” Shade and Nepheline looked confused.

“This floor is at least five times as big as the first floor,” my mother observed. “And it is clearly being created and controlled by a much more experienced being. This was not made by a young divine spirit but by an experienced god! Sylphy, who is this mysterious god you are talking about? An ally?!”

“Let us go see her.”

We flew high into the skies, admiring the endless volcanic landscape until we reached a massive crimson castle floating above.

We landed inside the castle and were greeted by divine humanoid ant spirits of all shapes and sizes interacting with one another. Upon seeing us, they looked slightly surprised, stepped aside, and bowed.

“Lady Sylphy! Welcome!”

“What a surprise. Your last visit was hundreds of years ago…”

“Welcome, welcome.”

As we walked forward amid the greetings, my mother and father looked at me in confusion.

“Who are these ants? They are all divine spirits!” my father said.

“They are not as strong as true divine spirits like Ifrit, but they have the potential to become gods themselves,” my mother noted.

“Yeah, they are the children of… well, a friend,” I muttered, glancing back at Aquarina’s parents. “Once you learn who she is, many things you have been wondering about will finally make sense.”

We reached the throne room. The grand doors opened to reveal a crimson hall decorated with large golden bonfires. At the center stood a throne of gold and rubies, upon which sat a giant insectoid spirit goddess. Her body was humanoid and quite voluptuous now that I saw her true form. Sharp, hard red exoskeleton gleamed like polished metal, accented with golden parts and divine spirit jewels. She even had large breast-like growths beneath her steel-like plates. Her evolutions had somehow made her more humanoid. I could definitely see what Beelzebub saw in her now. She was growing into quite the striking bug queen.

Perhaps my influence as her human master was shaping her transformations. Whatever the case, this giant blazing ant queen of divine fire spirit power was none other than the villainous being who had once threatened their lives.

This was exactly why it was so difficult to explain.

“W-Wait, who is this?!” my mother asked, stepping back. “Such an enormous halo of divinity…!”

“She is incredibly strong and has an amazing affinity with my element too…” my father said, awed. “She is… a goddess of fire? But why is she ant-like?”

“GRRR…” Armageddon clicked her mandibles angrily. “Master, why have you brought so many people to my lair again? Did I not tell you I wanted time for myself?!”

“Do not act insolently,” I said. She quickly lowered her head. “This is my family and my friends. You are to treat them well and kindly. Understood, Armageddon?”

“Uugh… Y-Yes… Master…” she muttered angrily, unable to disobey.

Shade and Nepheline stared at her in shock, while Felicia beside me looked amazed and rubbed her chin thoughtfully.

“Well, I have to say this is shocking,” Felicia laughed. “I knew something was going on here, but I never imagined you would have allied with some kind of wandering goddess—or should I call her an evil goddess? Although unlike those, her origin is an Artificial Great Spirit, I see! Are you rebelling against your makers, Armageddon?”

“Precisely…” she nodded confidently. “Heh, I guess someone here actually knows someth—Ungh?!”

TRUUUM!

However, just as things seemed to be calming down, two enormous pressures surged forward and began crushing her. One was a very cold, dark force, and the other carried the weight of a mountain.

“Nngaaaah! W-What the—Ah! It is you?! W-Why did you bring them here, Master?!”

I looked back and saw my father-in-law and mother-in-law staring furiously at Armageddon, their auras blazing with immense power.

“How is this possible…?!” Shade asked in disbelief. “How are you alive?!”

“We killed you; you damn bitch! What are you doing with our daughter-in-law?!” Nepheline demanded angrily. “Have you brainwashed her or something?!”

Ah, yeah. I had expected some kind of reaction, but this was a little too much.
