"This sounds interesting, perhaps it could satiate the hunger of your Treasure Core, offer the materials now, Drake!" Androda said.
"Alright!" Drake nodded. "Take these!"
He swung his claws, using one of his secondary bodies, the only second body he had, a Doppelganger that he had assigned inside of his own Divine Realm, while he assigned the body outside as his "Main Body", giving him all the stats without debuffs.
FLUOSH!
The three pocket realms flew into the treasure core, which began absorbing them, slurping them as if they were spaghetti or sothing. Drake and Androda were left speechless as the core devoured them without any difficulty, processing the realms in their entirety, and glowing brightly.
"It's glowing! I think that's enough for at least two rings? If you can also match the resources you give to the Divinity Core and the Divine Ability Core," Androda said.
"Only two? Okay, eat these too," Drake swiftly took out of his body four fragnts of Pandemonium and Chaos.
They were the fragnts he had obtained from his brother, [Pandemonium's Demonic Eye], [Pandemonium's Right Leg], [Pandemonium's Left Leg], and [Chaos' Miasmic Blood].
The core absorbed them, trembling as crimson lightning and black chaotic flas erupted from its body, and then it dripped miasma, before recovering and growing even more gigantic.
And yet...
"Not enough... Drake, three rings is too much at your current level! How about we leave it like that for now?"
"No... I need more power," Drake sighed, looking around his Divine Realm.
For a mont he had considered cutting everything on it and only leaving a small island where his castle and the villages would remain.
But that would only weaken him in the long run, so he decided not to go with the plan...
His other consideration was throwing Muramasa there, his powerful soul would prove to be a wonderful material.
But he wasn't sure if he would recover the sword after that... It was a gamble he didn't know if he could take.
Using his other Venerable Treasures was not possible because they were tied to other Ascendancy Law Rings, which would only weaken them.
"Hmmm, I think I got more resources here."
Drake opened his shadows, revealing a giant mass of cursed miasma, a large quantity of the cursed miasma sea from the dinsion of the decayed goddess, which he had secured beforehand!
Alongside this, there were millions of groaning Yokai specters, which he quickly offered, the core absorbed them, and it seed to be almost there...
But not yet.
"I wanted to save these to forge Muramasa into an even stronger form but... So be it."
Drake opened his palm, revealing the fragnted pieces of Fortune and Deus' Ascendancy Law Rings! Androda was surprised, thinking he had eaten them.
"You didn't eat them?!"
"No, I kept myself from doing sothing so stupid, I was sure I would need them. And... well, screw it."
"Wait, don't say that word!"
Androda knew that whenever Drake said, "screw it", it ant he would do sothing crazy.
And he did.
"Muramasa, I'll ask for your permission first, do you want to do this?"
"I do. If it ans I can be of any use and grant you more power, I will gladly offer my body and my soul, the spirits and weapons that compose all seem to agree."
"Really? Even that grumpy Celestia?"
"Don't call grumpy, Drake, I simply worry about you sotis. But yes, I am willing."
"What about the rest? Skadi, Uller, Ariel, Hephaestus?"
"I am ready if it ans I can help you better, you are after all our maker."
"We've enjoyed our lives greatly, if it ans we can save this world, by all ans, use us as materials."
"That boy Triton has his own trident, so I don't have anything to worry about, heh! I am sure Aquarius would have wanted to do this. And you said we won't die, right? So sure!"
"Since the mont you created , master, that I've been offering my fla to you. And this mont is no exception."
"Ahh... you guys..." Drake felt slightly moved. "Yeah, don't worry, you won't die. You will simply... well, transform into sothing else, an even deeper fusion into my own power. You'll be a part of , forever... I know that sounds weird, but it isn't... Wait, isn't Rose among you? Are you sure?"
"I am, master! Please don't worry! I had long ago died, and you helped avenge my family when we confronted Red and the Vampires. My soul is yours to use however you please."
"The only one that isn't here is Belle... But she's with her mother now, I cannot ask her to co and do this," Drake nodded. "Alright, go."
Drake sent Muramasa down towards the Treasure Core, alongside the Ascendancy Law Ring Fragnts, as the core absorbed the rapidly and gluttonously.
RUMBLE!
FLAAASH!
It shone so brightly it seed to have beco a star... Drake felt a slight tinge of lancholy as he saw his precious sword disappear, alongside all his friends that made her.
But he knew they weren't dead, they were simply evolving, reforging themselves and becoming a deeper part of his own powers.
"Now... is it ready?"
Drake faced his Treasure Core, it had grown to a titanic size, bigger than the moon itself. By now, it was its own star amidst his Divine Realm.
"It's ready..." Androda sighed. "Drake, don't you think you're going too far?"
"I am... but to save this world, we had to make so decisions," Drake looked down. "I'm sorry for disappointing you, Androda. Maybe I am not the man you thought I am? I have beco more decisive, but also colder... my resolve to save this world and my family is too big, it has led towards a darker path, perhaps."
"Not at all, dummy," Androda hugged Drake from behind, kissing his face. "I was just worried, but you're still the sa man I love... and darker path? You talk like you've murdered millions! Relax. They are not dead after all."
