Chapter 438: Birth Of A Goddess

BOOOOM!!!

​A colossal pillar of absolute, light-devouring black energy burst out from the depths of the sea. The sheer conceptual weight of the beam parted the ocean waters for miles, shooting directly into the sky and momentarily stunning the entire planet.

​On the violently rippling sea surface, Julian stood perfectly balanced. He stared at the towering column of black energy with a proud, knowing smile. With a flick of his wrists, he unsummoned his twin supreme broadswords, sending them back into his spatial inventory, and calmly dusted the sea spray from his armored arms.

​"Why am I even worried? Congratulations, my Queen... Your current strength is now equal to my peak strength."

​[Underwater City - Cave.]

​Deep within the abyssal sanctuary, the atmospheric pressure reached critical, reality-bending levels. The Guardian, Cupcake, and Queen Seraphina instinctively took a step backward, physically pushed away by the suffocating dark energy aggressively swirling around Mirabella. They stared in awe at the three floating stones—gold, red, and pitch-black—which, after a few agonizing seconds of violent rotation, seamlessly merged into one perfectly smooth, unfathomable orb.

​BOOOOM!!!

​A massive, concussive wave of pure necrotic energy burst out from it. Before the three onlookers, the single, unified gemstone shattered into blinding, ethereal light, and shot forward, violently merging directly into Mirabella’s forehead.

​"...?!!"

​They watched in absolute, paralyzed shock as a blazing golden star appeared on her forehead, burning with the authority of the cosmos, only to vanish into her skin the very next moment, leaving no physical scar.

​"Phew... There is no heaven tribulation." Seraphina said, sighing in profound relief, her legs nearly giving out. Historically, advancing to the peak of the Divine Sovereign stage required surviving apocalyptic lightning meant to cull the unworthy.

​"She is Heaven’s child. There is no need for a Tribulation because Heaven already recognized her." The Guardian said with a serene smile, watching as Mirabella slowly opened her eyes. The familiar blue irises were gone, replaced by a radiant, terrifying, and absolute golden glow.

​BOOOOM!!!

​Mirabella stood up, her aura fracturing the indestructible stone beneath her boots. She stared down at her hands, flexing her fingers as she felt the unfathomable, planetary-scale powers flowing rapidly inside her core like a raging, conceptual tide, just waiting to be released.

​"Aunty, attack me with your strongest skill, aim to kill me." She said, her golden eyes looking up at Seraphina with chilling calmness.

​"Huh? You sure about that? I am a Mid-Divine Sovereign, although you’re now a peak, you might still get injured." Seraphina hesitated.

​"No worries, go ahead, I won’t block." Mirabella said, her tone leaving no room for argument.

​"Alright then."

​Seraphina’s expression hardened into that of a ruler. She snapped her fingers, and her supreme class artifact, the Diamond Scepter, materialized in a flash of deep blue light.

​"Water annihilation dragon!!"

​The supreme specter glowed blindingly bright, weaponizing the very concept of the ocean. A colossal, roaring water dragon—composed of highly compressed, razor-sharp aquatic energy—shot out, heading directly towards Mirabella with absolute, unfiltered killing intent.

​’Such strong attack... Some hours ago, I won’t dare take this head-on.’ Mirabella thought, calculating the devastating damage output, right as the abyssal dragon smashed directly into her, completely erasing her physical form from sight in an explosion of white foam and crushing pressure.

​"Mirabella?" Seraphina called out in a low, trembling voice, staring at the violently churning empty space before them.

​’I can’t sense Master’s breath! Is Master dead??’ Cupcake thought in absolute, paralyzed shock. Not only her, but the elite Subordinates guarding the perimeter outside all froze in shock, feeling their absolute connection to their sovereign momentarily sever.

​"She is dead." The Guardian stated factually, slowly nodding her head as she read the laws of the room.

​"What??? No!! I didn’t mean to kill her!! She asked me to!" Seraphina yelled in raw horror, dropping her scepter as the reality of vaporizing her best friend’s daughter set in.

​"No worries, as long you all remembers me, I can’t die."

​"....?!!"

​The three powerful beings completely froze. From the scattered, ambient necrotic energy in the room, Mirabella simply appeared out of thin air, reforming her physical body without a single drop of blood or scratch on her clothes. She had bypassed regeneration entirely; she simply was.

​"In short, I am now unkillable." She added, testing the boundaries of her newfound immortality.

​’My Goddess!! That’s my strongest attack, and I also used a supreme class artifact... Isn’t that skill too overpowered?’ Seraphina thought in lingering shock, staring at Mirabella as if she were a glitch in the very fabric of reality.

​"Finally, I can settle everything in Galaxy Fall." Mirabella smiled softly, the weight of survival finally lifting from her shoulders. She bowed slightly at Seraphina and the Guardian, showing respect for their monumental aid:

​"Thank you for everything!! But I am sorry, I can’t stay... I have important things to take care of."

​"Umm... But what about the feast?" Seraphina asked, still reeling from the emotional whiplash of murder and resurrection.

​"Maybe next time, Aunty... I need to look for Mom’s other two soul fragments, and also clear Galaxy Fall of the Evil one’s forces." She said, her golden eyes narrowing as she mapped her target list.

​Seraphina sighed deeply, knowing she couldn’t chain a Goddess to the ocean floor, and nodded her head: "Alright then, maybe next time... Make sure you visit me! Okay?"

​"I will Aunty, thank you again."

​Mirabella smiled, and with a mere thought, her body dissolved, vanishing into a swirling vortex of dark, necrotic smoke. Cupcake stared at the spot where her body had been, right as Mirabella pulled her, and she vanished into smoke too.

​"What happened?!! Where is Master?!!" Vespina yelled, swimming inside the cavern at breakneck speed, her weapons drawn, only to be forcibly recalled into the sub-space, vanishing into dark smoke before she could get an answer.

​"....?!"

​Seraphina and the Guardian were left standing in the silent cavern, staring at the lingering wisps of smoke, utterly stunned by the shifting of cosmic eras.

​[On the Surface.]

​The red skies had faded, but the ocean remained violently unsettled.

​"You finally succeeded, I have been waiting for you up here." Julian said, turning around smoothly as Mirabella walked out from thin air before him, stepping out of the dark smoke like a queen stepping onto her throne.

​"Stop the act, Julian. I know you’re the one." Mirabella cut him off immediately, a slight, dangerous frown on her face.

​"Huh??? How? I hid it well." Julian blinked, a genuine crack appearing in his confident, Dark King facade.

​"Hid it well? I admit your soul is the purest I have ever seen, but you can’t hide your profile." She added.

​"Impossible, my System already hid--"

​Julian completely froze, his jaw snapping shut as he realized the fatal slip of his tongue, staring wide-eyed at Mirabella’s suddenly stunned expression.

​"Wait!! So you have the second System?!!" She asked in profound shock.

​Julian ran a hand through his hair, dropping the remaining layers of his disguise as his chaotic, primordial aura flared.

​"Oh well, Seems I can no longer pretend. Yeah, I am Julian Aethelgard, your future Husband, and the Master of the Chaos system."
