Naturally, when giving mortals meals using Divine Beasts or even feeding the Divinity Fragments, they were able to easily ascend into G.o.ds. In a similar way, when giving G.o.ds Cosmic Dishes, they will naturally ascend into Cosmic Beings themselves! As simple as that!
Ding!
[Your [Cosmic Dishes] have influenced all those that have eaten them!]
[Thei Realms have all reached Supreme G.o.d: Rank 10!]
[The [Cosmic Cooking Apprentice: Lv1] t.i.tle Skill has Leveled Up!]
"How do you feel now?" I asked everyone with a smile.
"Much stronger… This is amazing." Altani said. "However, it feels lacking, like I am missing a last thing to surpa.s.s my limits."
"Yeah, me too! I feel so strong, but I am not yet World Devourer Realm either." Gaby sighed. "Even though we fought so many d.a.m.ned foes back then! It is a bit frustrating."
"Do we need some requirement to achieve the next Realm?" Wondered Charlotte. "My Divine Realm has become so large…"
"Yeah, you need to consume a World Core to ascend. Or well, something very similar would be a Realm Core." I said. "When I consumed the Realm Core of Helheim, I was able to ascend into a World Devourer Realm. So apparently they count as World Cores if you feed them with enough Cosmic Energy, which is what the Necrotic Plane Ruler did. They"re also… Apparently something like Origin World Fragments too? Well, the whole Genesis is a big fragment."
"To consume a World…" Sighed Redgaria. "That seem like a rather huge filter. I can tell why not many can even reach such a Realm. And I am quite envious! Why didn"t you share the Cosmic Dishes with me? At least give some to my beloved sister!"
"B-Big brother, it"s fine. Don"t ask such things to Auntie Kireina…" His little sister was really disappointed of him.
"Redgaria you"re not part of my family, you"re my friend maybe, but you are not getting the same treatment as my them!" I said. "Don"t be c.o.c.ky now, I"ve helped you enough. If you want to grow stronger through my aid, well, you"ll have to pay for it."
"And what can I even pay you with? I am a poor soul with no pennies." He sighed halfheartedly.
"You have many riches and resources, actually… But another thing you never did is promise me your utmost and eternal loyalty through an oath. So I can"t really trust you too much." I crossed my arms.
"Hahh… T-That"s…" He groaned, he seemed slightly reluctant.
"What about us, auntie Kireina?" Wondered Yiksukesh, acting all cutesy with me. "Can I get some Cosmic Dishes? A-At least for my family? I"m sure Uncle Jormungandr, Fenrir, and auntie Hel are very sorry!"
"Aww, well, maybe I"ll consider it. But they also must swear loyalty and an oath with me first." I said. "This includes you, dear Loki."
"B-But of course! I would gladly do so right now, y-you can even take my hand as your wife too, I don"t mind!" She was very thirsty, I see. What a desperate little s.l.u.t. I won"t fall for such tricks anymore.
"Sorry Loki, I am not looking for any more wives right now." I said. "Also you shouldn"t just offer yourself like this. I only take those girls I truly love." I caressed my queens as they sat around me.
"A-Ah… I shouldn"t have even hoped…" Loki sighed. "That was so embarra.s.sing, what was I thinking?! Uggh…"
"Mom…" Hel was glaring at her furiously. "You disgust me."
"I can"t believe you"re still the same even after all these years regarding how desperate you are for a date." Said Jormungandr.
"Ugh, she"s not my mother…" Fenrir looked somewhere else. "I have no mother anymore."
"H-How can you say that?!" Loki cried and wept like a baby for a little while, but we ignored her. "Don"t say that! You"re the only thing I have left, buaaaah!"
As we ignored Loki and Redgaria"s tantrums, Agatheina and Alice asked more things about how to progress their cultivation right now.
"It is a pity we arrived inside of Abyss, if we could go into the Outer Universe, it wouldn"t be so hard to capture and devour some worlds." Agatheina sighed.
"Yeah, I suppose we"ll be stuck like this for now, it doesn"t matter. With the Maxima Ego Mechs that Charlotte is making, plus our ability to level up and gain skills again with the Origin System, I don"t think we need to hurry." Alice was trying to look at the brighter side of the problem.
"Well… About that…" I said with a teasing smile, my wives and children quickly opened their eyes wide, realizing I actually had a plan. "There should be a way. I have gathered so far a few Realms before I died. Their Realm Cores have been absorbed by the World Realm Core though, but I still got that Double Realm Core that was born from the fusion between the Realm Cores of Ravenfolt and Atlantis. It is tremendously huge, and it was loaded with Cosmic and Spiritual Energy due to the circ.u.mstances that gave birth to it. Come on, follow me, I"ll show you where it is."
I guided my beloved family across the skies of my ever-growing World Realm, in the way there, we saw all matter of fantastical and colorful visages. New landscapes appearing every minute, as my Cosmic Energy continued transforming everything, and filling it with Cosmic Treasures born out of the excessive Cosmic Energy spread everywhere.
"It should be around here." I said, looking in the middle of the intersection between the newest Atlantean Sea and the Blood Sea formed just recently within my World Realm.
"Oh, this area! It does remind me of the same place where both Realms had collided." Said Gaby.
"My Vampires should be around here as well…" Alice said.
"Mine too." Agatheina nodded.
"I see, well, we can say hi to them later." I shrugged. "Faylen, Yggdrantia, we"re here."
FLAs.h.!.+ FLAs.h.!.+
Two figures surged from the seas, it was my Elven wife Faylen, former Realm Menace of Envy, and Yggdrantia, my Yggdrasil Spirit Ego daughter. Both had grown rather close with one another and were taking care of a little thing for me.
The seas rumbled as they separated, a gigantic tower made of Yggdrantia"s body emerged, inside of it, a ma.s.sive dark red and blue jewel glowed brightly…
"Kireina-sama, you"re finally back!" Faylen was really happy, greeting me from atop the tower.
"Mama, the Double Realm Core is growing bigger and bigger every minute with the infusion of Cosmic Energy and the two Seas!" Said Yggdrantia. "I think it has become fifty times larger right now. How big do you want it to be?"
"As big as possible! We"ll be mining it for its resources after all." I smiled, my words quickly revealing my plan to my family.
"Wait, mom, don"t you mean…?" Aarae asked. "Are we… Oh, I get it now!"
"So you"re helping this Realm Core grow bigger and bigger so we can mine and get our own World Cores out of it?!" Agatheina asked, her eyes s.h.i.+ning brightly, as she gave me a big deep kiss. "Mooch! You"re such a genius, my beloved queen!"
"A-Ahahaha, come on, I am not that smart." I giggled. "We still need to test if it works though. So let"s begin chopping a few pieces." I materialized a huge pickaxe made using my cosmic, blue-colored exoskeleton.
