Today I received a large amount of information through my sleep, it was from Apollo.

It seems that the assimilation of his soul had been a success, and it is completely taken over my split soul alter ego. Through 'Uroboros' and 'God Devour' I was able to assimilate my split soul into his soul and then make my split soul devour itself, which also ended devouring Apollo without him even noticing.

He was digested in a few weeks and his entire existence became one with my split soul. Even if he were to be a God, he was completely powerless, unless he wanted to destroy his own soul to get rid of me.

Now that I have acquired this information, I created a new bond with my split soul, and we became one yet again.

As result, I acquire everything that was eaten and assimilated.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

[Kireina] acquired [Divinity of Light (Apollo)]!]

[The [Fragment of Light Divinity (Apollo)] has been integrated into the [Divinity of Light (Apollo)]!]

[The acquired Divinity has been integrated into [Kireina]'s Rank 7 Soul!]

Indeed, assimilating a god is completely different than just a demigod, which I ate a day ago.

My buffet is quickly improving into greater beings, I feel a bit overwhelmed, but grateful for this foolish god.

[The [Divine Aura of Chaotic Nightmarish Venom Life; Level 4] skill has awaked into the [Divine Aura of Chaotic Nightmarish Venom Life Light; Level 4]!]

[The [Worshiped Demon Goddess; Level 10] and [Secrecy of Ancient Spirits; Level 10] Skills have merged and awakened into the [Worshiped Heavenly Aberration Goddess; Level 1] Skill!]

[Kireina] acquired the [Transcendental Light Attribute Source; Level 1] Skill!]

Due to how Apollo was eaten, only his soul powers were assimilated, but his physical vessel remained untouched and due to the slow erosion of the soul, it does not seem to reject the new soul inside of it.

If I want to acquire more skills, I will have to devour the physical body of Apollo, but it is better to use it as a spy inside God's pantheon.

And addressing his Divine Realm, I should be able to acquire it as well, but I fear that it might end up being integrated into my Fragmented Divine Realm, so I've left it with the original body of Apollo and my alter ego possessing it.

Now that we have made the connection and shared powers, my alter ego had already received my latest skills and divinities, so it is way stronger than it was before.

Though I do not think it would mind giving me a few pieces of Apollo's flesh and blood, which can regenerate pretty easily by using the skills it acquired from me. But I do not think I can do that now, as Apollo's children, wives, and his family would probably notice what he is doing.

By the way, Apollo has three Demigod children, and many Living Deity Children, he also had many mortal children that never raised to godhood across the entirety of the central continent.

His three Demigod children are:

Aristaios, the Demigod of Bright Winds, the eldest son of Apollo, was born from a mortal woman named Cyrene, a princess of one of the central continent Kingdoms of the past. Cyrene is still alive as the Huntress Demigoddess of the Sacred Wind Bow.

Asclepius, the Demigod of Light Medicine, was born after Aristaios from the womb of his mother, Coronis, another princess of the central continent of the past. Coronis was slain by Apollo's sister, Artemis (by his request), for being with another man even after spending a night with him. Apollo was benevolent enough to forget the life of the children in her womb, who possessed his blood, Asclepius.

And last but not least, there is the young and beautiful Khariklo, the Nymph Demigoddess of Clear Water, born from a Spirit of Water named Azura, who disappeared (died) after giving birth to Khariklo. His main wife seems to be Cyrene, but there are a few others that are Demi goddesses as well.

All of them are rather weak, as only Aristaios possess some fighting capabilities… I am still thinking about parasitizing them, leaving them alone, eating them, or convincing them of joining me through my Apollo Alter Ego.

Hmm, going into too much detail about the central continent, now that I have all the info, would be a hassle, so I will just skip its explanation and bring it when it is necessary. The only thing I can say is that Isaac, a guy that was a relative of an adventurer that my servants killed is being raised as a promising hero by the gods there… well, I kind of knew this already by the other god's mouths but seeing Apollo's memories gave me a bigger and clearer picture of everything.

Everything feels so dim and meaningless for mortals when you take into consideration that their entire lives, tasks, and missions are but the fabrication of gods… as if they were all chess pieces.

Apollo had blessed Isaac beforehand, so now that I have taken over his divine authority, the blessing is of mine. Of course, I can make it seem as if it remains as Apollo's blessing to my will, if I change it to my name, the hero might go crazy.

I don't feel any threat from this little man, he might as well raise in strength and make the 'fated' war more interesting… and about the Heavenly Commandments, Apollo wasn't as informed about them as I thought, but it seems that their information is being hidden even amongst gods.

But from what he had, they are beings equal to Realm Menaces, but that serve the 'good gods' while realm menaces represent sins and bring chaos and destruction.

The Gods and the World's Will created this endless cycle where Realm Menaces and Commandments and Heroes fight against each other in constant wars between generations and generations.

The purpose of these whole events is to generate strong heroes that could become new gods to maintain the world, while also sharpening humanity's strength. The Realm Menaces also bring destruction and chaos, so the Realms don't become too overpopulated with mortals.

Whichever wins, there are always a group of gods benefitting and another losing. It is like an event where they all gamble away Divine Energy, Divine Materials, and more, and the winning side gets all the benefits.

Well, too bad I am not a peon in these God's chess tables anymore.

Due to my unique Epic, I have gained the ability to control my own destiny and that of others, and I have already changed many events in the Realm of Vida. I will gladly change even more of them; I will not let any of these events occur as the gods plan them to go as.

Well, they are already growing desperate.

Does Athena really think that I do not know that she and her father, alongside many of her siblings are trying to use Azuma Empire to somehow kill me?

What kind of joke is this?

Are gods incapable of thinking rationally?

They are really delusional beings… This shocks me a bit, as this 'genius plan' came from the Goddess of Wisdom herself, who should be expected to be… well, intelligent.

And well, after 'stealing' Blaze from Hephaestus, he is incredibly enraged and about to do something about me.

I think he will most likely plan some kind of stupid scheme to 'provoke' me out of my Empire.

I will just follow his plans and then eat him up when he least expects it.

Maybe some actions will be required… such as 'Oh no! I've completely fallen into Hephaestus master plan!'

Yeah, that should do.

Anyways, after assimilating the God of Light divinity, I woke up… quite radiant today.

I felt that my whole body was very bright.

And in fact, it was.

I glanced at myself to find that my hair had turned blonde out of nowhere and my eyes were blue, my wings were golden as well and my skin was pinkish and healthy, unlike the pale white skin of a Vampire.

"Is this some kind of joke?" I said.

My wives and children that slept in my bed were glancing at me as if I had become a deity of pure light.

Even a halo appeared atop my head…

What now? Feathered white wings?

Poof!

My butterfly wings then became feathered white wings.

"Ooh! Amazing, Masta! You have become very bright and heavenly!" said Rimuru.

"I have to admit that she looks kind of hot," said Oga.

"Kireina is always pretty and hot," said Brontes.

"Could you stop this flattery? This strange transformation must be some kind of aftereffect after eating Apollo's soul…" I said.

"APOLLO'S SOUL?!"

Evan, who was in the room, drinking tea with Amiphossia in the distance yelled in surprise and fear.

"Yeah, I just ate him. Well, not me, it was my split soul, that's why it took some time" I said.

"Oh, so you already did it? Ufufu, well, it didn't take as long as I imagined!" said Nesiphae, laughing mischievously.

"Oh! That is nice, Masta! How did it taste?" asked Rimuru.

"I can't tell, as I only received his powers, my split soul was the one that had the pleasure of tasting it… and I am back," I said, shapeshifting back to my original form.

"Well… I guess… things are like that… but how? My blessing and divine protection of Apollo have not disappeared" said Evan

"That is because Apollo's body is still intact, I only ate and assimilated his soul, so it is more like a different body, a second body using Apollo's body… well, even his body is being slowly converted into me. But for now, I keep the blessing, so I do not awake suspiciousness," I said.

"I-I see… Mother-in-law-sama is a fearsome being…" said Evan, falling unconscious.

"Evan, I'll heal you!" shouted Amiphossia, covering his body with her phantasmal soul and healing his tired and stressed mind.

"Did he just fell unconscious due to fear?" asked Athos.

"Nyahahaha! What a coward little boy!" laughed Geraldine.

"Amiphossia-sama, perhaps being with someone stronger and less sensitive than him would be the best for you…" said Shirohibe, while floating around like a ghost.

"Ah, shut up Shirohibe! I love my Evan just as he is! Even if he is a bit… well, coward?" said Amiphossia.

"Evan is no coward, he was just very surprised, my daughter. Remember the war in Athetosea? He bravely confronted his brother and killed him," I said.

The moment I said that one of my harpy babies, Solyth, the bright, yellow-colored chick jumped for some reason, his eyes widening for a bit, but then it quickly calmed down…

"Solyth, what's wrong?" asked Nephiana, carrying our baby.

"Chirp, chirp…" said Solyth, who seemed to have forgotten about what we just said and took a nap.

Perhaps what I said awakened some memories of her past life?

Anyway, after Evan was attended by Amiphossia, we had a nice breakfast.

Today I will have a meeting with the gods in Morpheus's dungeon, where I will talk with Nyzzet as well, introduce them to my Fragmented Divine Realm and also assess the souls of Moonfang and Sunclaw's royalty and heroes alongside Cathin and his party.
