Chapter 949: Vacation?
“I say he’s unlucky. After all, if he didn’t have the strength to deal with these problems, terrible consequences would fall upon him,” Eleonor spoke, being quite realistic.
“Hmm… You’re right,” Scathach nodded.
“Girls, we’re getting off track in this meeting,” Anna warned.
“Oh…” They all reacted at once.
Anna smiled in amusement; it was obvious that the girls tended to stray from the point when they started talking. This sight was proof enough of how well they got along.
Scathach coughed lightly to get everyone’s attention and began to speak. “To give Asgard a chance, we must strengthen its foundations.”
“Hmm… Now that Victor has solved the Dimension problem, I suggest using Idun,” Velnorah said.
“Even though the Dimension has stabilized and its vitality has returned to normal, it will still take time for new Apples to grow. We can use Gaia’s ability as The Mother of The Earth to boost the Apple growth for at least two batches, which will total 2500 Apples. I think that will be enough to strengthen the Gods and ensure the war lasts longer.”
“That opinion is valid, but the problem lies with the End Gods. Only the strongest Beings in Asgard can deal with them, and they can’t be killed, only sealed. Because of this, Hela still has the advantage,” Scathach narrowed her eyes.
To put it simply, Hela had three nuclear bombs at her disposal anytime she wanted, while Odin didn’t. He only had precautions that could work at best if several conditions were met.
Divine Artifacts, either armor or weapons, Divine Consumables like Idun’s Golden Apples, or others, were all useless in front of an End God.
It only took one attack from Fenrir’s claws to destroy all of that. Because of this unique Power, usually only a single End God would appear in each Sector, or at least that’s what Velnorah told Scathach.
“Balance must exist, so if a God of The End is born, a God of Beginnings will be born as well, but… we don’t have three Gods of Beginnings; we only have Victor…” Scathach’s eyes widened slightly as this thought crossed her mind.
Scathach looked at Velnorah. “Velnorah, you mentioned that it’s rare to find more than two Beings of The End in a single Sector, and usually, there’s only one for each Sector. If that’s the case, there should only be one God of Beginnings to maintain Balance.”
“That’s correct. In all the Sectors I’ve conquered as an Overlord, this rule has always applied. It’s only this Sector that is abnormal, with three End Gods and two even coming from the same source,” Velnorah nodded.
“So… You mentioned Balance… But look at our situation, there are three End Gods, but there’s only one God of Beginnings, which is Victor.”
“Well, that’s…” Velnorah’s eyes widened when she realized what Scathach meant. “… That… That’s quite possible, considering Victor’s future strength after training.”
“Girls, don’t let us wonder what kind of conversation you’re having; please explain,” Anna spoke gently.
Scathach sighed and said, “This is just a theory, but I think our Sector has three End Gods because of Victor’s existence.”
“… What does my son have to do with this?” Anna asked, confused.
“His strength, or at least the potential for his future strength as a God of Beginnings. Remember, the Universe has strange ways of balancing itself, and it will do so without us realizing it. Velnorah herself confirmed that having three Gods of The End in one Sector is ridiculous and far from the norm, but none of these Sectors had an existence like Victor within them.”
“Considering his potential, as he progresses in his Divinity, Victor may become one of the strongest Gods of Beginning to ever exist, and to counterbalance that, the Universe gave birth to three End Gods.”
A silence fell around the room.
“… This theory is quite possible, and I think there’s more than a 90% chance of it being correct, but we shouldn’t dwell on it now because it’s something we can’t change,” Velnorah said. “Let’s focus on our goals.”
“… Right… Use Idun, right?”
“Yes, this kind of method has only indirect effects, not direct ones. We need something that provides direct strength to the Gods,” Velnorah said.
“Hmm… Why not just Bless the Gods who will fight the End creatures?” Carmila spoke. The woman who had been silent until now analyzed the situation and felt that this was the best option, considering that their Faction had many Gods stronger than those of the Norse Pantheon.
“A temporary Blessing… In that case, if we’re going down that path, we should prioritize Blessings that increase survivability. Such as Luck, Victory, Warfare, Wisdom, and so on,” Natashia gave her opinion.
“… That’s possible… In fact, that’s a very good idea. We’ll be indirectly assisting the Gods of Asgard, and when it’s all over, we can simply remove the Blessing,” Scathach said.
“But there’s a problem. When a Higher-Level God grants a weaker God a Blessing, the weaker party will sense which God blessed them. Is there any way to conceal that?” Agnes spoke.
“Yes, there is,” Velnorah said. She opened her hand, and a metallic, spherical liquid began forming in her palm. This sphere grew in size, and in the next moment, it split into seven small cores. Once this division was complete, the cores formed into a kind of bracelet.
Six bracelets floated to the round table and stood still while one bracelet remained in Velnorah’s hand.
“These items are called Divinity Concealment items. My closest servants and I used these when we wanted to do something that shouldn’t be sensed by those who shared the same Divine Concept as us,” Velnorah took the bracelet and placed it on her arm. In the next moment, the bracelet came to life, and her entire arm was covered with a type of metallic armor.
“As for their effects, they tend to hide any Divine activity from foreign Beings. So, when we Bless someone, they will notice that a foreign deity or a stronger deity than them had granted them a Blessing, but they wouldn’t know exactly who.”
“… That’s perfect,” Violet smiled.
Velnorah nodded and added, “Be aware that this equipment has its limits, so don’t use very powerful Divinities, or it will reach its tolerance limit and be destroyed.”
“… As someone who has access to a lot of Divine Material that Victor provided, why don’t you create armor for us that can completely conceal the use of our Divine Powers?” Scathach asked. Even though she wasn’t a Goddess now, this fact wouldn’t last for long. After all, of all those present here, Scathach was the one who strove the most to become stronger.
Just like with her previous Noble Vampire body, she wanted to reach the maximum potential of this Dragon body, and as everyone knew, the power limit of a Dragon God was much higher than that of all other Races.
“I was already thinking about doing that, a strong armor that protects the body, adapts to various metamorphic forms, and completely conceals our strength level and Divine Concepts,” Velnorah spoke while narrowing her eyes as unpleasant memories crossed her mind.
“Entering a Higher Sector with several Elder deities in their own Divine Concepts is pure folly. I learned from my past mistakes. That’s why I’m going to create the perfect armor that utilizes my technology, Hephaestus’s abilities, and Dragon Runes,” Velnorah said with a cold tone that carried an enormous amount of determination. Ever since she evolved into a Dragon, one of the studies that consumed most of her time was Dragon Runes.
It was a mysterious Power that she instinctively understood. Even though she was not as talented as Anna in this aspect, she was a natural scholar, and she learned quickly. Even better, she was her own Master due to her mastery in various other Domains. So, unless it was something very specific to this art, Velnorah can develop it on her own.
“Good… I look forward to seeing your armor,” Scathach said.
“… Girls, you’ve lost sight of the goal again,” Anna said.
“… Oh.”
“Right, the Norse Gods, huh…” Violet began to speak. “Ugh, if it weren’t for Darling’s order to keep up appearances, we could just invade the place and take it for ourselves.”
“Sometimes, things can’t be solved with brute force, Violet. And we have enough resources to handle this quietly,” Carmila said.
“I know, it’s just that this method is plain boring,” Violet said.
“Well, I can’t argue with you on that because I feel the same way,” Carmila smiled slightly. “But it’s imperative that we adapt to every kind of battlefield.”
“Mm, Darling and Scathach told me the same thing; I already know. Let’s just deal with it,” Violet gestured with her hand, and seven screens appeared above the round table.
