The sparring battle against the lesser Ruvoid God took three days and three nights until everyone concluded the end of it. They were satisfied and could assess the bottom line of a lesser version of their enemy.

On the fourth day in the morning, Elysia entered the secret realm to tell everyone it was time to leave.

"Master Ely, Celestia just needs the finishing touches, and I believe I can make it into a mid-tier divine grade cursed sword." Zera came out of the bracelet realm to tell the results of her hard work in the last three days.

"Hehe, thank you, Zera. You've worked hard. Do you know why weapon's spirits are so rare in our arsenal and quite scarce in Vrelenia?" Elysia held Zera's hand to express her gratitude. Zera had considered everything for Number One, which was the best possible outcome.

"That's because not many spirits are worthy of becoming a weapon's spirit. Also, a divine being in the past slightly changed the world's law to send the lingering soul straight to the afterlife to avoid the soul refiner on the other side. Am I right?" Zera made a rough assumption but needed to figure it out after saying it.

"Yup, that's right." Elysia nodded slightly.

"As for our arsenals, I felt a faint fluctuation from those magical artifacts and weapons. The spirits were probably seriously injured and entered hibernation, or simply left a fragment of their soul there. Others were annihilated in the great battle, leaving the empty vessel without spirit ." Evelyn raised her hand. She had heard this discussion before.

"Yeah, it explains why spirits with intact soul bodies are almost non-existent in Vrelenia. But, I heard that there are a lot of them on Earth. Even nobody can have spirit in their sword." Zera folded her arms and tapped her chin. She came up with some ideas regarding Earth.

"There are plenty of wandering spirits on Earth, but our weapons or artefacts are too high-end for them. Also, we will revive our spirits when the time comes. They only need to be restored to their optimal state, not completely dead." Rhea shook her head. She and her fellow Goddesses did suffer a significant loss, but not all spirits died for nought.

"Mm, that is our next project after the Ruvoid God threat is over." Elena agreed to the proposal but felt an inexplicable sense of tiredness just imagining it. The weapon and artefact's spirits revival required much time and effort.

"Let's quickly return to the portal and get everyone back." Lifa urged everyone to fly faster back to the portal.

"Nee, Master Ely... Why do you want to save this world? In my eyes, you have no reason to fight so hard because you don't belong to this world." Zera asked in a whisper-like voice.

"Hmm... I also wonder why. Maybe, it's because my dear friends are from here? I obviously have to protect my people's homeplanet." Elysia looked up at the clear sky with a gentle gaze.

"Even though you barely know some of them? Evelyn and Sylvia were probably the first ones you became friends with. But, it's only been a few months, right?" Zera needed help understanding.

"That may be true, but the people in this world are fairly simple. We value sincerity, and loyalty is what follows. We can also see a person's personality and traits, thus it will be easy to judge a person's value. All of my people is chosen and precious. We have a greater plan for the future and beyond." Elysia looked at Zera and gave him a head pat.

"O-oh~" Zera could at least guess Elysia's basis for accepting someone to join the group.

After lifting the seal, Elysia and her little group entered the secret realm. The first thing they found was the devastating terrain.

The land was destroyed, mountains turned upside down, rivers dried up, trees burned to ashes, ice flakes everywhere, and a mixed energy emitting curses spread widely in the air.

The sky was red and cloudy, giving off an intimidating eerie impression. Only the lesser Ruvoid God and a group of people on top of a hill in the distance remained.

"This secret realm doesn't have any residents in it. But, my little sister found a gate to a trial ground and secured it. It's a legacy left behind by a God from our era." Rhea tugged the hem of Elysia's sleeve.

"..." Zera immediately flew up into the sky to fetch the lesser Ruvoid God.

"Keke, so the curse divine law is like that. It's interesting! I only need to master this technique and may be immune to the real Ruvoid God's curse!" Xero felt his blood boil with excitement. He began to understand the curse of divine law and was confident that he would not be disadvantaged against the real deal.

"Well, just don't get too proud of yourself or you'll be the first to die like in the past." Oceanid rolled his eyes.

"Hmph, the lesser one really isn't to be trifled with. It's more troublesome than the avatar, but I'm confident I'll be able to face the real one after training myself again." Regulus puffed out his chest proudly.

"Just don't try to hide behind your wives like you did in the past." Oceanid sighed.

The lesser Ruvoid God was restoring itself after being defeated for the thirty-second time. Everyone was waiting for it to finish, even though they were already quite satisfied after testing their strength against the opponent and its divine curse.

"Hmm?" Nell noticed Elysia and her big sister had come to pick them up. She then gestured to the girls and the dragons to withdraw from the battle.

*Swoosh*

Zera appeared like a ghost before the three Gods and immediately retrieved the lesser Ruvoid God. She converted it back into the linked core fragment.

"Girl, what are you doing?" Xero was surprised that he failed to notice Zera's arrival.

"Take this thing back and put it back where it belongs." Zera removed Celestia from the sheath and enhanced the newly forged blade with the core fragment in place.

The curse fluctuation increased drastically, and the demonic cursed sword emitted an intimidating aura. The dark realm seemed to be getting darker and more oppressive, but Zera smiled happily at what she was doing.

"The battle data that you accumulated after fighting six God-level beings, five Emperors, and several other Saint and Spirit-level beings produced something extraordinarily great. Now, fuse and upgrade to become the perfect weapon to kill all enemies!" Zera fused the linked fragment to the black crystal in Celestia's rain guard.

*Boom!*

The billowing black thunder flashed as the cursed aura exploded. Celestia and Zera were enveloped in an atmosphere of darkness and curse so thick and pure. Still, it looked different in the eyes of Xero and the others.

"You!? As expected, you have a hidden agenda regarding this whole sparring event!" Xero pointed at Zera as if he had predicted this kind of outcome. He immediately dashed off to attack Zera and stop the fusing ritual.

"Don't disturb me." Zera raised her palm and sent the tired Heretic God backwards tens of meters with a dark shockwave.

She considered a few things and immediately flew high into the sky to bathe Celestia in black lightning.

"I already said that she is the possible enemy!" Xero shouted in annoyance and immediately caught up to the sky.

"..." Oceanid glanced at Elysia and the others near the secret realm portal. They were still calm as if everything was within their predictions, but he couldn't ignore what Xero had said. It wasn't easy to put my trust in Zera, even with his wisdom.

"Ugh, let's back off and see what those two can do." Regulus didn't feel like rushing to a conclusion and immediately landed.

"Absorb!" Zera raised Celestia high into the sky, and all the darkness and curse energy scattered in the surrounding air and land was absorbed like a massive insatiable vortex.

"!?" Zera was alarmed by the sudden attack, and she caught the Heretic God's spear with her bare hand.

She had no time to explain and couldn't move before Celestia had finished going through the forbidden tribulation. She also felt embarrassed to ask for assistance from Elysia. Her hand was bleeding, and her curse body protection was torn.

"Go away. I'm not an enemy!" Zera kicked Xero with another tremendous shockwave.

"Only ghosts believe in that! Actions are louder than words for you to fool, and Elysia is still guilible." Xero was still in his crazed battle rush and couldn't believe the words of the possible enemy.

"You appeared before us without explanation and did something that made us question your actions. Speak now or this will not end well for you." Oceanid restrained Zera with the water-bending divine law. He would make Zera talk now.

"Hmph! I don't have time for it. Disperse!" Zera released a massive gravity push to send the two Gods away.

"Alright, it's a misunderstanding. Stop attacking Zera. She is good, and I can explain her action." Elysia spoke solemnly and sent it right into Xero's and Oceanid's ears.

"Misunderstanding!?" Xero couldn't believe what Elysia was saying.

*Swoosh*

The vortex in the sky looked like a black hole, but it disappeared a few seconds later. The surrounding darkness and curse had been sucked away, and the sky's light returned to illuminate the destroyed land, indicating that the disaster was over.

"Master Ely~ This is Celestia who has been forged and enhanced to mid tier divine grade sword! The precious meteorite ore won't go to waste with this." Zera happily and proudly presented Celestia to Elysia.

"Zera, your hand is bleeding." Elysia ignored the heavy Odachi and treated Zera's injury right away.
