Clearly, Elliot recent battle with the Administrator had made the Queen Taratect misjudge Kumoko's actual strength!
The Queen's connection to her daughter only provided a general sense of her power, not precise details. She must have thought Kumoko was the one fighting the Administrator, mistaking that imnse power as Kumoko's own.
In the blink of an eye, the Queen Taratect shattered the barrier between the Lower and Middle Stratums, appearing right in front of Kumoko and Elliot. Her body was enormous and bloated, yet her speed was still shockingly fast.
She opened her mouth, and an intense beam of destructive energy erupted. Everything in its path was instantly obliterated. Countless creatures throughout the labyrinth were vaporized by the shockwave.
Elliot frowned. At his current speed, he definitely couldn't escape. He'd only slow Kumoko down. It was better to let her go first while he tried to hold off the Queen alone. Without a word, he scooped Kumoko into his palm.
Kumoko panicked. "Elliot, what are you doing?! Elliot..."
"You go first. I'll catch up," Elliot said with firm conviction. But Kumoko knew that was just empty talk. Once a monster like her mother targeted you, there was no escape.
But Elliot didn't give her a chance to argue. With imnse strength, he launched Kumoko through the air like a cannonball.
"ELLIOT—!" Kumoko's voice faded as her body shot into the distance.
Only when Kumoko was out of sight did Elliot finally relax a little. He knew he was no match for the Queen Taratect either, but Kumoko staying would have been useless and would only hinder his movents. Letting her escape was the better choice.
RUMBLE! BOOM! Chunks of rock rained down from the ceiling as the Queen Taratect continued her devastating attacks.
"Terrifying... I'm completely outmatched by a monster like this." Encountering opponents he couldn't beat one after another was starting to get Elliot down. Damn it! I didn't co to this world just to be their punching bag!
The entire ceiling of the cavern was on the verge of collapsing under the Queen's assault.
Was he, a mighty Dragon, really going to be buried here? He didn't have enough skill points to learn Space Magic to escape either.
[Divine Spark Awakening Quest Activated. Transfer to Quest Location?]
"Huh?" Elliot was a bit stunned. It seed this Divine Spark Awakening quest couldn't be completed here; the system would transport him to another location to finish it.
"Transfer!" Of course, transfer! Anywhere had to be better than this cursed Elroe Labyrinth right now! As the saying goes, "as long as the green hills remain, there will be no shortage of firewood." No matter where in this world he was sent, as long as he survived, he would eventually return.
[First Stage of Divine Spark Awakening Quest Initiated. Beginning Interdinsional Travel.]
The space around him began to distort. Hearing the system prompt, Elliot paused.
Interdinsional travel? Am I going to another world?
He worried for a mont if he'd be able to co back. But then he rembered this was just the first stage of the Divine Spark Awakening quest. After going to another world, he would naturally return to his original one. So, no need to worry about being stuck.
Of course, the system didn't bother answering these unspoken questions.
[Beginning Travel...]
A flash of light! Just as the cavern ceiling was about to crash down, Elliot successfully transferred!
....
anwhile, Kumoko, who had been 'thrown' a great distance by Elliot, was now frantically digging through the rubble where he'd been, wailing uncontrollably.
"Elliot! Where are you?! Answer , Elliot!"
"It's my fault! I was too weak! I held you back! Please co back! We can grind levels together, okay? When I get stronger, I'll protect you!"
"Please, answer ! Please, co out!"
But no matter how much she cried out, there was no response. Elliot was no longer in this world.
"AAAAAAAHHH—UNFORGIVABLE! UNFORGIVABLE! Whoever took Elliot from , I'LL MAKE THEM PAY!" she scread, her eyes bloodshot, her voice raw with grief.
"Body Brain! Magic Brain! Information Brain!"
"Here!" Three distinct voices, each with a different personality, responded in unison within Kumoko's mind.
"Since the Queen Taratect can connect and contact my soul through so pathway, then conversely, I can use that sa pathway to contact her soul! You three, go into the Queen Taratect's mind and wreak so serious havoc!"
"Yes, ma'am!"
"Understood!"
The three Parallel Minds imdiately used the soul link to invade the Queen Taratect's consciousness and began their rampage.
Kumoko, with her [Heresy Nullification], had an immortal soul! In a soul battle, she would never lose to anyone! She was going to turn the Queen Taratect's mind completely upside down!
....
anwhile...
Elliot arrived in another world.
"Where is this place?" Elliot slowly opened his eyes. Warm ocean waves lapped against his rocky scales. Soft sand, carrying the faint, salty scent of the sea breeze, cushioned him. The sound of crashing waves filled the air, carrying far in the open space.
Long-distance interdinsional travel was a huge strain on a traveler's soul. Often, transmigrators didn't die from their physical bodies collapsing, but from their souls shattering under the pressure of a foreign dinsion. Elliot's soul had endured the stress, but he felt incredibly weary.
"Ah, whatever. I'll just sleep for a bit." He could endure hunger, but lack of sleep was truly a killer. There didn't seem to be any dangerous monsters nearby. Elliot didn't overthink it and just conked out.
The sun was gentle. The tide ebbed and flowed, bringing in nurous shrimp, crabs, and shellfish. Seagulls soared lazily in the clouds above. Everything felt so peaceful.
Recalling the dangerous, knife's-edge life in the Elroe Labyrinth, where every day and night was filled with anxiety, Elliot suddenly found this feeling of just lying flat rather nice.
He didn't know how long he slept, but eventually, he sensed a faint movent approaching.
Tap, tap, tap... Light footsteps. Not the steady, heavy steps of an adult; it sounded like a child.
"Dodoking! Klee is here to see you!"
Dodoking...? Elliot, still groggy, heard the na. It sounded like sothing from a children's story, a very stereotypical monster na. Clearly, this child thought he was the so-called Dodoking.
Dodoking? Klee?
Ugh, don't tell this is the world of Genshin Impact. Elliot's mind slowly started working. He rembered that many of his skills ca from this world.
So, ending up here wasn't that surprising.
Could it be that by completing the Divine Spark Awakening quest in this world, I can obtain the power to slay gods? Elliot pondered.
He knew that the world of Genshin Impact also had the [Heavenly Principles]. The Heavenly Principles possessed authority similar to the Administrators in Kumoko's world, ruling over this world, controlling all its laws and rules.
Below the [Heavenly Principles] were the Seven Archons, who governed the seven elental powers.
The Archons possessed divine power but were also constrained by it, unable to defy the Heavenly Principles.
One of the Seven, Venti, had once helped Vennessa overthrow the tyrant of Mondstadt.
Later, Vennessa ascended to Celestia, the abode of the gods, as a Wind's Favored. Vennessa had asked Venti if ascending to Celestia ant attaining godhood.
But Venti told her that long, long ago, Pangu's blood ford the rivers, Purusha's body nourished all life, and Ymir's brain beca the sea of clouds, bringing life to the world. After hearing this, Vennessa entered Celestia and was never seen again.
From this, Elliot inferred that the so-called [Heavenly Principles] seed to require the nourishnt of divine power, using the bodies of gods as fuel, to maintain the order of this world.
His nasake, Zhongli, had also ntioned that both gods and elental beings like Azhdaha were subject to the [Erosion] of the Heavenly Principles.
In this world, not even gods were truly immortal. So, whether it was Vennessa or the Seven Archons, none could defy the laws established by the [Heavenly Principles].
I know I know what you are thinking... but just let answer you all... he will co back with a human form and our kumoko will gain that too
