Chapter 606 - Traveling Through The Skies, Reaching The Floating Continent Of Cosmos!
-----
After having enjoyed a week inside the beautiful underground city of Tevra, the party quickly decided to move out towards the next God in the list.
Razdall, Vedon, and Lamus were said to live close to one another, while Nymera, The Goddess of The Moon and the Night lived the farther from here alongside Zilmera, the Goddess of the Stars and Constellations.
Tevra, who had gotten a beautiful and quite sexy black dress after a few days of getting used to her new humanoid vessel, looked radiant and a bit overwhelming in her beauty. She was also rather tall despite this vessel having been made "pocket sized" as she was as big as a Giant, who were three meters tall. The beautiful Dragon Goddess began to explain some things to the separated split souls as they traveled across the skies over Wellerman.
"Nymera and Zilmera live faraway from here, within the Floating Mini Continent of Cosmos. It is a secret continent that floats above the skies of the Demon Continent, not even the people in here know much about it. Even less the people of the other continent at our side… In that beautiful haven is where they take care of many Beast-kin Tribes. It is said to be the Paradise of Beast-kin. They usually recruit any tribe of beast-kin that they see, this is why it is rare to see them around in the wild anymore. These two goddess had taken the work of taking care of them." Said Tevra.
"Amazing… Did they created the Continent?" asked Aleksandra, who was with them.
"Although they made some changes on it. No, this continent existed before the Ragnarök, it was a large piece of land that simply separated itself from the entire continent eons ago through the formation of the world. It is said that within it, there is a large concentration of Anir and Kelsus parts that has yet to become land, which enhances its richness. Alongside that, there are special stones that let the entire continent float, named Cloud Stones." Said Tevra.
"A floating continent… Now this feels like a dream." Said Jason.
"Fufu, but it exists. Although I have not visited it, my children had gone there sometimes. They are welcomed. And usually, there are always feasts and parties, the tribes that live there are truly unique in their lifetimes. Although they to adapt to the dangerous nature and powerful Rank 15 and above monsters that emerge there constantly, they are also very festive… I guess they inherited that custom from the two goddess that take care of them. Nymera and Zilmera are quite the party doers." Said Tevra.
"Interesting. What's the direction?" asked Ervas.
"Well, above, to the west. It should take about a week to reach it at our current speed." Said Tevra.
"Well, we are going slow because it is fun to see the beautiful scenery, but I am excited to get there so… Wellerman! Time to go faster!" said Veronica.
"GUUUUUUOOOONNN…!"
The enormous flying ghost ship began to move faster and faster through the skies, reaching towards the beautiful sea of clouds atop the skies and swimming through it easily!
FLAAAAAASH!
"S-Such speed! How fast can this go?" asked Tevra.
"Way faster! This is not even 10%!" said Veronica.
"W-What?!"
"Now, Wellerman, get a bit serious." Said Ervas.
"GUUUUOOOONNNNN…!"
Wellerman's entire body flashed with divine energy, as it began to be infused all across its body! In an instant, it released a powerful blast of energy from the rear, flashing through the skies like a meteor!
FLAAAAAAAASH!
"This speed should be decent; we'll get there in a few minutes." Said Ervas.
"I-I can tell…" said Tevra.
"Hey, did you said that there were Rank 15 and above monsters there?!" asked Veronica.
"Yeah, such monsters form due to the enormous quantities of divine energy that the floating continent has. But that's not all, all across these skies in this certain region of the continent, there are enormous and almost oppressive quantities of divine energy, so the creatures that spawn here are monstrously strong. Well, to me, it wouldn't be much- Now that I am in this body, I don't know if I should be that confident though." Considered Tevra.
"Wow! I never thought we would find such strong monsters." Said Veronica.
"Indeed, there are quite a lot of them, a few thousands, all flying towards us at super sonic speeds. All of them seem to be incredibly super-evolved Wyvern, Thunder Bird, Wind Slime, and other monsters… Amazing, they are not even Rank 15, the average is Rank 18, and there is a dozen that reach Rank 20… There are ten of them that are Rank 21, and three at Rank 22… So there are more Ranks above Rank 20… Interesting. They are stronger than the Demon Gods possessed y the Necromancer Fragments." Said Ervas.
"Eh?! SO many! I didn't even detected them…!" said Tevra.
"Ueh?!" cried Aleksandra.
"Oho? Time for some smacking then!" said James, taking his mace.
"Dear, you're going to fight those?!" asked Aleksandra.
"Well, yeah. They are pretty strong, a good source of EXP. Now that I am a God it has become very hard to get it in nice quantities, dearie. Want to join? Ah, right… You're a mortal still… Oh! Why don't you watch and get EXP like that? Keep changing Jobs and you'll catch up to us in no time," said James, kissing Aleksandra's forehead and patting her shoulders, as he jumped into the air like a flash.
"Y-You've gotta be kidding me…" muttered Aleksandra, seeing the tremendous swarm of terrifyingly strong monsters. The monsters she constantly defeated everyday in the dungeons to level up was nothing compared to these creatures!
Ervas and Veronica watched at the beast approach.
"They kind of remind me of the Monsters we saw in the Moon, but those were even stronger." Said Ervas.
"I wonder if there would be higher ranked monsters in more populated areas of outer space!" said Veronica.
"Perhaps. Although for naturally strong monsters to emerge, a lot of energy is required in that place…"
"Yeah…! Now… Everyone, come out!"
An army of Demigods and Gods emerged from a giant portal made by the split souls, an EXP fest was about to start!
