Chapter 1906 Sacrifice
.

The World that Umbra unconsciously created to protect her own consciousness, memories, and mind began to crack and shatter apart. Finally, we were going to free her and we could live together.
Yet… Why?
Why was this happening?
Why was she disappearing before my eyes, slowly becoming part of my own self instead?
This isn"t… what I wanted…
"U-Umbra?!" I cried, surprised. "UMBRA! STOP!"
"It has been fun, Kireina…" She said.
"D-Don"t come saying that!" I said. "W-What do you mean…?!"
"I knew from the beginning that you wanted to sacrifice your own self for me… So I could get a chance myself…" She said, slowly dissipating, tears flowing from her big eye. "But I just couldn"t let that happen…"
"N-No… Umbra… Wait…! WAIT!" I cried; I couldn"t stop the tears from flowing from my eyes. "You can"t just… I thought you had another way for us… to become one."
"Yeah!" She said. "It is… By becoming part of you instead."
"But that will…" I cried. "No… I don"t want you to just disappear!"
"After I learned everything you"ve lived… Well, what I"ve lived as you, I was so happy. I was so happy that I made so many new friends, a family…" She continued crying. "That you could talk with mama again… I just couldn"t make you give all that up for me."
"N-No…" I felt devastated. The light that emerged from her crumbling world continued to consume us, everything else was falling apart.
"I want you to be happy!" She smiled. "I would never… take your life away from you, Kireina! So… take care! Don"t worry…"
Her darkness embraced me with a warm hug.
"I"ll always be there within you!"
FLAAAAAAs.h.!.+
With those last words, I could no longer hear her voice…
Her World slowly crumbled into fragments, unifying into my soul, and giving me even more power, alongside a new Realm apart from my own Divine Realm.
Umbra… My childhood self.
I"ll never… I"ll never ever forget about you.
A I opened my eyes again, I saw the pieces of my coc.o.o.n in the floor, s.h.i.+ning like ma.s.ses of cosmic energy that slowly dissipated into nothingness.
My new self was born, and I looked… exactly like her.
Like Umbra.
An adorable sphere of Pure Essence of Chaos, with a single red eye, and tiny tentacles below.
Maybe some… might not think of this as adorable, but Umbra was such a cute girl.
Ugh… f.u.c.k.
"Umbra…" I sighed, slowly shapes.h.i.+fting to a more comfortable form.
Even my fairy/demon form changed, my wings were bigger, darker, with giant red eyes, I even gained a long, demon tail with black scales, my I gained a third pair of horns over my forehead, growing pointy and upwards.
My fairy wings looked sharper, more demon-like, and these black scales were growing around my legs, arms, and chest. They seemed to be imbued with draconic and chaotic powers.
My eyes seemed to be s.h.i.+ning with cosmic, blue light, but there was also purple, red, and pink lights constantly s.h.i.+ning. My hair, aside from its dark purple colors with red ends, now had black undertones.
Hahhh… Yet, I couldn"t help but feel so sad.
As a dress made out of Cosmic and Chaotic Essence grew around my body, and as my Familiars greeted me after my evolution, I simply… I couldn"t really talk.
Ding!

FLUOOOs.h.!.+
Within the depths of my soul, a gigantic world of darkness and chaos surged. It felt like the birth of a tiny universe. It was incredible… It expanded continuously, much bigger, and tremendous than any Divine Realm.
"Umbra… This is… her gift, I suppose…" I sighed. "Thank you…"
Within this world, I could feel her presence… She was still there, everywhere. She had become me… Instead of me becoming her.
I guess I can understand why she choose this instead. But… Maybe I ended not being able to understand my childhood"s self as much. She ended being a much better girl than I could had ever been.
And with this evolution, I have officially ascended into a World Rank being I guess… Tier 1 out of 10. I"m guessing these will increase as I level up now? My normal Rank continues being in letters though, I do wonder if it"ll change, apart from my Realm.
"I"ll always be there within you!"
Umbra"s voice echoed within my memories once more… Ah, I shouldn"t be sad. I should be smiling, I bet that"s what she wants me to do, isn"t it?
I"ll only worry her if I get all sad…
"Mama, what"s wrong?" Yggdra asked.
"Master?" White wondered.
"Oi! Answer!" Black barked.
"Mama?" Aquamarine wondered.
"Master…" Silva sighed.
"S-She"s not responding… I"m worried." Colora said, panicking.
My army of Familiar babies began crying.
"Ah, I"m fine." I sighed. "Don"t get so worried you lot. Bubu and Shadrach aren"t here thankfully, they would had done an even bigger fuss over this… So, do you like my new form?"
"You look stunning!" Silva said. "But why were you so sad?"
"It"s strange, did something happen?" White wondered. "Master, you can feel free to tell us, we are your companions through all of this as well."
"Well…"
At the end, I ended explaining them the whole ordeal.
