"Dad, be quick~," Little Veronica said in her soft, sweet voice.
Theo bent down and picked up his daughter. She was his youngest daughter, small and soft. He patted her head affectionately as he spoke in a gentle voice. "I will be as soon as possible."
"It's a promise!" She linked her pinky with his and smiled.
After saying goodbye to his children, wives, and family, Theo starts teleporting 100 light-years per second.
In less than 1 minute, he arrived at his first objective, which was a planet called Vulcan. Just in case, Theo wore armor that covers almost every part of his body, black color with red accents, with high elemental defense, and a lot of resistance to physical damage.
Hiding his presence, he entered Planet Vulcan and expanded his illusions around the entire planet. It was a gigantic, middle-class planet; even so, he managed to use his illusions all over the planet; it proves how much he trained and evolved his technique.
Shortly thereafter, he found whoever he was looking for, Saint Sandro – Divine Magma Salamander. His original form was a salamander that looked like a cross between a frog and a gecko, a large toad-like mouth, a more stretched body like a gecko, and a long tail surrounded by magma.
Coming out of a volcano, Sandro transforms into a human form, he is completely naked, and before he could get dressed, Theo appeared.
"Y-You..."
Not even giving him a chance to speak, Theo used [Devour] with him still alive. He prefers to take no chances and have a divine being reincarnated. Although their enmity is because he wanted Theo dead because he liked Helena, Theo was not the perfect example of a good person; if they are an enemy, and, if necessary, he will devour even the soul.

"…" Well, it increased his soul by 1,000 years and his Cultivation too. So it wasn't bad, although the number of cells filled was almost negligible.
'Well, it was just a Saint in the 2nd layer...' Theo sighed and felt a little longing for the Heavenly Divine Tribulation.
Theo faked Sandro saying goodbye, saying he had something to do on another planet using his illusions and then left Planet Vulcan.
'Okay, one is gone, 110 to go...' Theo's eyes sharpened and his lips curved into a predatory smile, and he began to teleport across the universe until he reached the next target.
It took about 1 minute for Theo to reach his destination.
In front of Theo, a green planet was quite visible, beings of the vegetarian type dominated the planet, and the carnivores were almost extinct; even the seas were full of trees and plants, the planet was a truly green planet.
Divine Friesian Horse, Saint Edward – Saint Realm 3rd Layer. Theo's next target. This one Theo had personal grudges with. This stupid horse wants to kill his children for being carnivores and thinks they are a threat to all other animals. However, his own planet led the carnivorous animals to extinction; only the most harmless survived, but it is unknown for how long.
However, as personal as it is, Theo still used his illusions and disguised everything. Theo has read Saint Edward's mind before but still read a little of what you needed to know to get out without looking suspicious. What Theo didn't want was to alert the other divine beings. It would be better if he managed to kill them all without them suspecting. However, there is no way everything goes as he wishes, but he will try to eliminate as much as possible before they find out and hide.
"Golden Divine Fox! You dare to invade my..."

Theo wiped his ear; this horse's voice was incredibly loud and irritating. After using [Devour], Theo made them think Saint Edward had gone out and teleported towards the next target.

After passing through almost 30 different planets, Theo devoured the thirtieth divine being, and a different message appeared on his retina.

[Congratulations! You've reached the 3rd Layer of Saint Realm]
[Nine Hundred Thirty Thousand Years; Changed to Nine Hundred and Thirty-One Thousand Years]
[Congratulations! Affinity: [Divine Sound Level 1] Acquired!]

'Divine Parrot of Sound... It was called Saint Jozef, yes? Mm, I won't forget your sacrifice!' Theo smiled, he didn't even know how strong this affinity could be, but he was happy nonetheless.
The stronger he gets, the better, especially after hearing what Isis told him.
'Well, well, there are still 81 more divine beings to devour...' Theo still acted cautiously, but he didn't know there was a top 100 divine being rank, and the 100th rank has just been replaced, which caught the attention of the divine beings, but they thought it was only surpassed by another divine being; however, it still caught their attention.
Theo returned to teleport after following the same pattern as before, but upon arriving at Planet Hermitages, he couldn't find the divine being he was looking for. Finally, after researching a bit, he found the reason.
'Rank of divine beings... Damn, was there something like that?' Theo didn't read the memories of divine beings that deeply, so he had no idea such a thing existed; not even Helen and Isis told him that.
Theo used his illusions and entered the [Dimensional Room] and looked at Helena and Isis.
"Why didn't you tell me there was a rank for the top 100 divine beings?" Theo was a little upset. Because of this, divine beings started to gather, especially the top 51 to 100. Many of them were targeted by him, and now, reunited...
Wait, wouldn't it be better if they were together? No... If he made them disappear suddenly, it would be suspicious...
"You didn't ask, darling~," Helena said in her seductive voice and blew a kiss from a distance.
"...If I don't ask, you won't say, wait, I saw your memories... It's here, dammit!" Theo cursed. He hadn't noticed this before, as, for Helena, this rank was irrelevant, and she was ranked 3rd. With Isis first. Since she reached this level, she has only looked once and has never called that rank, so Theo hasn't noticed this before.
"Haha, Darling, you're funny~," Helena walked over to him and pressed her pair of breasts to Theo's chest and blew into his ear.
"...I'm pretty pissed right now, better back off." Theo took a deep breath to calm himself; he had no reason to take out his anger on Helena.
"Where are you now?" Isis asked.
"Planet Hermitages, I was supposed to find that damn turtle-type divine being, but he wasn't here anymore. For a turtle, he was pretty fast." Theo made an awkward joke, but Lala looked at him strangely.
"I'm not talking about you. You're different; Lala is special. In fact, he has a turtle divinity, and I think it's a good idea for you to eat his divinity." When Theo mentioned it, Lala's expressionless eyes showed a sparkle they'd never shown before.
"I want it; I'm willing to do anything!" Lala said in a very animated way, totally different from her normal one.
"Let's not talk about what you can offer me." Theo ran his hand over the top of her head and smiled gently: "You help me a lot, this is the least I can do, anyway, I need to find him alone. It will not be easy not to arouse suspicion with many divine beings together. And, from what I understand, he's ranked 100. In fact, he was the 'lucky one' who climbed into the top 100 after I devoured the Divine Sound Parrot."
"Ara, Darling, I'm so happy!" Helena ignored Theo's strange look and kissed his lips awkwardly, and said, "I hated that shitty parrot, he was annoying, and his voice was unbearable. I'm so glad you got rid of him for me."
"It wasn't exactly for you, but because of you, but I think it's the same. Anyway, why did you start calling me Darling when I haven't even made you my woman yet? Oh, whatever, I need to meet the others separately. I will continue to try to find others that are still below Rank 100. However, I think there are almost none, the weak ones I devoured first... Anyway, I already know what I wanted to know; I'm going, bye." Theo didn't even let them talk, and he's already disappeared before their eyes.
After searching, he realized that he was right; the divine beings who were currently his enemies were ranked 100 or above.
'If I kill the ranks 1 to 50, it will get attention, and if I kill the ranks 51 to 100, it will, but they are together, basically asking to be my target. Whatever, I'll take them all, and then get the rest. If I don't get them now, bad luck, but I'll still keep looking!' After some thought, Theo planned what to do next.
It was better to have several at once than just 1 or 2.
In any case, he needed to act fast.
