Established Pinnacle: The Enigma
Chapter 119 Athena's Chronicles: AmbitionsNot like she understood anything herself, but if she said that, Louise might spank her big time. So she used Noelle instead.
Louise also realized that, and stopped talking. She was only being so considerate because she felt Enigma's aura on the young girl, meaning she was at most his believer or... another fiancee.
It was fine anyhow. She was going to respect his choices, and of course she did not want to verify it now. Lest it was true. Respecting his choice and considering her feelings were two different things altogether.
They continued on their journey and left the topic. But Noelle still memorized everything to heart. Maybe in the future, she would be able to picture something so grand and unfathomable.
And her belief that Louise, Mimi and Enigma were people out of this world were strengthened. They could be beings of an entirely Higher Realm for all she knows!!
When they reached the edge of a cliff, they suddenly gazed down and saw a man-slaughter below. There were thousands of demon... corpses. All the way to a hundred kilometers, and maybe even beyond.
"Uhh..." Mimi looked down and sensed that even Ruler Demon Kings were killed ruthlessly and left in tatters. There was no complete corpse, and each corpse at least had a bone or two exposed.
"The Abyss is this strong?" Noelle paled in fright and took a step back. This was just too ruthless, even Rulers were slaughtered, let alone a little half god like herself.
"No, it's not that there are a lot of stronger beings here. This is the first floor, and the strongest should be a Half Deity." Louise commented, her gaze looking at a faraway place.
"Then big sister, how do you explain this mess?" Mimi looked down and asked without any hesitation. The difference between Lesser Deities and Deity Kings was grand.
"A Deity King can at most fight a few Deity Lords, or hundreds of Higher Deities, or a tens of thousands of Greater Deities, or even tens of millions of Lesser Deities." Louise suddenly said all of a sudden. Mimi and Noelle knew that.
But before they could even ask her what she meant, she pointed forward, towards a dark place miles away and continued, "Then you can say that they can easily wipe out tens of billions of Half Deities, right? So what would happen if one met that?"
Mimi and Noeele followed her hand and their complexion paled immediately. Despite not being able to see as far as Louise can, they felt the pressure immediately with one glance.
"A Deity King who can hold tens of billions of Half Deities, will lose to hundreds of billions of Half Deities, and will immediately die against even a trillion Half Deities. So what of tens of trillions of them?" Louise asked once again.
And now that she mentioned it, how could Mimi and Noelle not understand her. There were probably over trillions of Half Deities rushing over their way right now.
"Why... Why are there a lot of them? Isn't that number just too illogical? How is the World not destroyed?!" Noelle asked in stupor and disbelief. She was even more stupefied at Louise's calm behavior.
"Half Deities are like first league combatants in authority here." Louise suddenly opened her mouth, and Noelle could already guess what the latter half would be.
"And there are hundreds of billions of first league combatants within a whole Continent in the Middle Realm. And there are tens of thousands of overall Continents within that Realm." And she was right, meaning that, they were to expect over tens of trillions of Half Deity equivalent beings here in the Abyss? As mobs?
"No way..." Noelle trembled in fright. For the first time in a while, she truly felt fearful for her future, and whether she will even make it out alive.
"Big sister?" Mimi likewise did the same, by now, they could see a black sea rushing towards them at full momentum. A black sea that stretched as far as their sight could see.
But that was not a sea though, it was definitely not a sea!!!

『ID: Athena W. Vermillion』
『Congratulations for breaking through. You have gained a new Divinity, "Lady of Wisdom". Your R7-Stone Metal Law has become R8-All Metal Law. You have one chance to either upgrade one of your Providence or gain a new one. What would your choice be?』
Athena looked at the message for a while before manifesting her Providence and Artifacts. Being someone who prided in her Wisdom, she did not want to make a mistake. Plus, she was the only one who had PRIDE in her Wisdom.
As for the new Divinity, it likewise delt with Wisdom. She was quite knowledgeable, but this Divinity stretched out her Divinity throughout the Multiverse.
Not that she was base-line all-knowing within the entire Multiverse, but that there was nothing she could not learn, or wish to know about throughout the whole Multiverse.
Thus included Secrets and Mysteries weak enough to be known Multiversally, and those related to Deities and the likes. Anything beyond that, was still forbidden to her.
『Providence(6): Eternal Wisdom(Zenith), Athens Manifestation(Fantasy), War Dominion(Unique), All-knowing(Unique), Artifact Creation(Unique), Hero Maker(Unique)』
『Artifacts(2): Aegis(Lost), All-Knowing Owl(Lost)』
'Hmm, Eternal Wisdom is a variant type, and I can't use it since it's highly advanced. But Athens Manifestation is different. I can still use it since it's only Fantasy, but I should not go overboard with it.' She thought to herself as she calculated.
Unlike Enigma, who had collective types only, people with variant types could use their Providence according to their situation. For example, a variant type "Primal Chaos" could be used to create many Unique, Ultimate or Divine Skills related to the Primal Chaos.
And when it was Fantasy Grade, it could create even beyond Divine skills. But at this time, Divine skills were above their leagues, so Fantasy Grades were scorned at... for now.
But it was not like collective types were bad. Enigma was an example, he already had multiple Skills from his collective Providence, and this was when he was forcing himself not to comprehend more of them.
Athena was thankful that she had all variant types. With this, she can create Skills according to her situation, instead of searching for already created skills by her Prime life incarnate. Most important of all, she was not afraid of using Divine Skills even now.
"I'm busy conquering an entire world now, Eternal Wisdom and All-Knowing are useless. Artifact Creation is useful as it is, I won't be able to use it freely when it's upgraded.
"Even if I can use Divine Skills, I can at most use three before stopping. Athens Manifestation is already upgraded, anymore and I'll regret it. Now, War Dominion or Hero Maker?" She thought about it carefully.
For now, what she needed most were Deities. The seven towers had around 500 000 Deities collectively, but she had to conquer them to have them under her name.
ƥαṇdα- ηθνε|·ƈθm And even then, that was still only a third of what she truly needs to make this entire Plane a Mythical Plane. Why was she trying so much? Are you even asking such a stupid question?
There are 7 major races in this place, if she can have them all as Believers, then make them Mythical, she could come in second place of being the person with the most Faith points throughout all her peers.
She already knew who would be first, in fact, she didn't compete with him knowing quite well that he will do so without even meaning to do it. So, she decided to protect her pride and be content with second place for now.
『Congratulations. Your "Hero Maker" has become a Fantasy Providence』
As for the weapons, like any other normal True God, why would she upgrade a Lost Weapon she could barely use to a Runic Weapon she could not use?
And her reason for such a Providence, was also simple. Heroes, were mortals who were Deity Lord equivalents. But not anybody could be a Hero, as mostly those with Chosen potential could even attempt at being such a Mythical profession.
『You have one chance to upgrade one of your Divine Arts (Basic). Please make your choice』
『You have recieved "Talent Bestowal", you can use Faith Units to increase talent and bestow a single talent into beings. Your population has been multiplied by ten. You can now have 2 000 believers. Enjoy your trials and do make sure to promote even faster』
She chose this one specifically since it worked wonders with her newly upgraded Providence. She truly hoped to create a divine skill used to make heroes out of this, a cheap copy of a certain someone's ability that could easily make gods come to fruition.
『True God Pantheons have been temporarily postponed for a year』
『Your Spartans have officially become a Mythical Race. They can now increase their race by accepting other Spartans from Terra』
