In the Divine Realm of Agatheina, the Vampire Goddess of Blood, the gods that had been supporting Kireina and her Empire were having a small eting.
"Although I do not want to force you into making your siblings join us, Morpheus… I do think that it should be a good idea to have them all together with us. This way, we could ensure Kireina-sama safety even more…" said Agatheina, while sipping a glass of scarlet blood.
"Sigh… I know, Agatheina. And in fact, they would join us if I asked… but I do not want to abuse my sibling's goodwill and force them to do things against their wills… I'm sure that the mont Kireina saves their people, they would gladly co and support her more openly" said Morpheus.
"We decided to co in here because we are next in the 'list'… And we were not forced by anyone" said Marnet, the Beast Demigod of Canines.
"Indeed… Although I would also appreciate it if more demigods or gods could join us… if we gather enough people, we might be even able to create a Pantheon… the first independent Pantheon in the Realm of Vida" said Maeralya, the Beast Demigoddess of Felines.
"Yes… To be honest, I have been thinking about it… Didn't Kireina-sama family and servants were blessed by several other Gods? Where are they? At this point they should know that we are supporting Kireina openly, they should join us…" said Levana, the Beast Demigoddess of Bats and Bat Beastn.
"Hmm… That is a good point, Levana. Many Gods have blessed Kireina's family and her servants… they should be joining… unless they have done this in secret?" wondered Agatheina.
"In secret? You an… Like they didn't tell anyone in their pantheons?" asked Levana.
"Yeah… Well, we kind of did it in secret, right, Hodhyl?" asked rveim, the Wyvern God of Strength.
"Not as much, the gods of our Pantheon already knew about our blessings, and seed mostly neutral until Kireina appeared and made our blessed children her allies… Well, it's not like we are blaming her, she has helped them greatly. After that, we began to get a bit ignored and treated badly by our siblings, so we ran away and ca here, knowing that there were so gods directly support Kireina" said Hodhyl, giving a more detailed explanation of how things ca to be.
"I see… well, didn't one of Kireina's children, Belle, just got blessed by two demigods?" asked Levana.
"Yes, she did… I have never heard of such demigods before, but by their nas and titles, they seem to belong to the Central Continent Pantheon… it is quite baffling to think that those Gods who are constantly plotting on killing Kireina-sama had decided to bless her children… there must be so sche going on in there" said Agatheina.
"Well, if they try to do sothing to Belle-chan, Kireina-sama will do sothing similar that she did to Apollo, it will end up being beneficial even," said Maeralya.
"Hahaha! I would like to see that! She could even infect them with her own Soul like with Apollo, and end up brainwashing them and slowly being assimilated by her! I would love to- Hm?"
"What's wrong, grandmother?" asked Levana.
"Soone… is coming… two demigods, from the outside, they're standing right ahead of the barrier we had set up around the Grand Forest," said Agatheina, completely switching her behavior, becoming serious and composed.
"Demigods? So, they cannot wait any longer, huh? War it is! If they are demigods, I can handle them myself!" said rveim, readying for battle.
"Wait, brother, calm yourself a little bit," said Hodhyl.
"I will go instead," said Agatheina.
"Grandmother, only you?! But you're still a bit weakened by your wound!" said Levana.
"Don't worry, If I can't handle them, I will just escape and call for rveim and Hodhyl" said Agatheina. She wanted to scout things out herself before risking the life of the other Gods…
"Oh? You have changed, Agatheina… You have beco more thoughtful of our safety?" asked Morpheus.
"No, it's not like that. If the life of rveim and Hodhyl are at risk, it would greatly weaken our 'Pantheon', it is better for , who is more experienced in scouting to go take a look, I have more Divine Energy as well than any of you" said Agatheina, opening a portal in her Divine Realm and coming outside with her flesh.
This would often be called 'descending'. When a God does not move through a Realm with their Divine Realms and appear in the flesh over the world. This state usually consus a large amount of Divine Energy.
The only Realms where Gods can walk more freely in their physical bodies are in 'Higher Realms', places filled with Divine Energy, where mortals cannot survive and only Divine Existences such as Divine Beasts and Living Deities live.
Agatheina glanced from the inside of the barrier, glaring at the two figures who had decided to descend as well.
"They are wasting their Divine Energy quite leisurely there…"
Agatheina slowly approached them while being covered in her Divine Energy, which showed itself as dark red blood.
"You two! What business do you have here? If you dare cross the barrier only death awaits you!" asked Agatheina.
The two demigods were covered in their own Divine Energy as well, and their physical appearance could be barely noticeable.
One demigod was bald, and shrouded in darkness and light, while the other seed to be a demigoddess with wide hips and long hair, covered in orange and yellow light.
"Ah, I told you that we were being quite rash by coming like this, sister," said the demigod.
"But brother, how could we had co then? It would have been too suspicious if we contacted any of the gods through the Interdinsional rchant Shop…" muttered the demigoddess.
"What business do you have with us? Speak!" said Agatheina, baring her fangs while controlling the blood around her, slowly forming spears.
"W-Wait, Agatheina-sama, right? Please, wait for a second… do not get us wrong! We are allies, friends!" said the demigod.
"I-Indeed! P-Please, we have co to serve Kireina-sama!" said the demigoddess.
"Serve… Kireina-sama?" asked Agatheina.
"Indeed! We have been 'guided' by her through our dreams… it was a very pleasant dream, one that we had never had before!" said the demigod.
"That is right, Agatheina-sama! We have also blessed Kireina-sama child, Belle-chan. We are allies" said the demigoddess.
"A dream…? Guided? Well, I am glad that you recognize the greatness of Kireina-sama… but your words an nothing without actions or proof of what you have done! If you blessed Belle-chan, then you two are the Demigod of Eclipses and the Demigoddess of Dawns?" asked Agatheina.
"Ah, how could I forget my manners? Yes, I am Bovdohr, the Demigod of Eclipses" said the demigod shrouded in darkness and dim light.
"And I am Nora, the Demigoddess of Dawns… Just as we said earlier, we had found our true purpose in serving Kireina-sama through the wonderful prophetic dreams that she has given to us… we had been truly guided to her path!" said the demigoddess.
"We don't have any intention of going back to Jupiter-sama Pantheon. Even if we are deed as traitors" said the demigod.
Agatheina seed surprised by these two demigods that she had never heard about, who were talking as if Kireina had truly presented herself in their dreams and had guided them towards a path to greatness.
Agatheina decided to not do any rash decisions and communicate with the other gods. Morpheus seed the most surprised, while rveim and Hodhyl ca out with a trial for them to show their true intentions.
"How about they do the sa thing we did?" asked rveim.
"You an… Taking away a piece of their divinity?" asked Hodhyl.
"Yeah, why not?" said Marnet, agreeing.
"Hmm… I wonder if they could still betray us later on though?" wondered Levana.
"There might be the possibility… but, for now, they would be weakened," said Morpheus.
The gods agreed with this decision and communicated it to Agatheina, who released a slight chuckle.
"Alright, you two. There is but a condition for you two to join our pantheon and finally serve Kireina-sama herself! Give up two large pieces of your soul, your divinity to Kireina-sama!" said Agatheina, ordering the two demigods by glancing at them from above.
The two demigods began to chat between themselves.
"Oh? That's it?" said the demigod.
"It doesn't seem bad at all… I thought we would have to give up our entire physical bodies… but this is way more generous as a 'condition', brother" said the demigoddess.
"Indeed, Kireina-sama is a benevolent master," said the demigod.
"You two didn't even doubt for a second…? Well, you can't just give the pieces as they are, you must convert them into elixirs first" said Agatheina.
The two demigods quickly extracted a large piece of their divinities, weakening themselves to prove their loyalty, and then each one created an Elixir with them. The divinity pieces were dissolved into dew-like liquid substances and sealed inside a flask made out of divine glass.
Divine Glass was a special material that could contain almost any liquid in the world, but after its seal was undone and the contents that saved were consud, it would turn into dust.
"Here, please, give this to Kireina-sama as fast as possible. I would be delighted if she could drink my divinity and beco stronger through it" said the demigod.
"Yes, please, as fast as possible," said the demigoddess.
Agatheina received the two Elixirs, one was bright orange, while the other was almost completely dark, while releasing so strange and ominous white light.
"It seems that you two are fully compromised into serving Kireina-sama, please, feel yourselves at ho," said Agatheina with a bright smile, opening a portal to her Divine Realm.
The two demigods were greeted by another five gods, rveim, Hodhyl, Morpheus, Marnet, and Maeralya.
"Oh my, such a small group, I suppose were one of the first to join?" said Nora, the demigoddess of Dawns as she revealed her physical appearance. She resembled a beautiful and voluptuous woman, with wide hips and a generous chest. Her skin was completely bright gold, and her hair shined brightly like the sun. She had two golden eyes and her head had an arc of light resembling the dawn of the sun over the horizon.
"My fellow gods, you too serve Kireina-sama? It is a pleasure to et all of you" said Bovdohr, the Demigod of Eclipses. He resembled a youthful man, his skin was completely dark on his right side, and completely yellow on his left side. He had no eyes and his head was bald. There was an arc of light and darkness, resembling an eclipse hovering over his bald head. He seed particularly creepy, his appearance reminding Morpheus and the others of the appearance of Demon Gods.
"Yes, yes, welco to our Pantheon. We are still quite a small group, but we are working hard to protect Kireina-sama and her Empire. Most of our children live in there now, so it is our duty" said Morpheus.
"How wonderful… I wonder if we could make our own children so Kireina-sama can take care of them?" asked Nora.
"Sister, I don't think that talking about that is a good topic…" muttered Bovdohr.
"Well, most of our children haven't been rescued yet, but we are next on the list, afterwards there would be our sibling children," said Marnet.
"That's right, ah, I suppose we should introduce ourselves?" wondered Maeralya.
"But of course! Well, you two already know about , I am Agatheina, the Vampire Goddess of Blood" said Agatheina, appearing from behind the two demigods and patting their shoulders amicably.
"And I am Levana, the Beast Demigoddess of Bats and Bat Beastn… it is nice to et new allies," said Levana, with a bit of a shy deanor.
"I am Morpheus, the Beast Demigod of Horses and Centaurs. Levana, Marnet, and Maeralya are my younger siblings" said Morpheus, with a sincere smile.
"I am the Beast Demigod of Canines, Marnet! Nice to see so new at in here once in a while! We are growing in numbers!" said Marnet.
"So, with you two, we are eight… two more to make ten… Ah, I am Maeralya, the Beast Demigoddess of Felines. Pleased to et you two, Bovdohr and Nora" said Maeralya.
"And I am rveim, the Wyvern God of STRENGTH! …Nice to et you" said rveim.
"Sigh… sorry, but my brother likes to show off when he ets new people. I am Hodhyl, the Wyvern Goddess of Nature. rveim and I are siblings, and we are the latest addition to this Pantheon… It's nice to know that there are more gods considering joining us" said Hodhyl.
"Oh my~ Everyone is so nice, hehe. Let us all be friends" said Nora, with a bright and beautiful smile.
"Ahaha, I am a bit nervous, but it is nice to know all of your nas. I do know so of you… but perhaps you didn't know about us, we are quite the 'obscure' demigods… we barely participate in Jupiter-sama Pantheon" said Bovdohr.
"I see… let us talk more about that, we would love to know more about them, especially because they are Kireina-sama enemies!" said Agatheina.
"Oh, with pleasure!" said Bovdohr, without a hint of sha.
"Hm, ah, this tea is so nice~," said Nora, drinking the tea served by Morpheus while eating small biscuits.
Kireina had just gotten even more supporters on the god's side.
