When Rubia opened her eyes she expected it to be the cave where she took temporary shelter in, not black void with stars and nine different coloured suns in the sky!!!
She started quickly to look around in panic, her eyes finally noticed that she was on some sort glass-like floor, and massive eye-catching Winged Knight coloured in Crimson and Gold was holding the platform she was standing on.
After looking around she finally noticed a round table and several comfortable chairs, one of the chairs was an actual a throne, sitting on the seat of the throne right now was the same guy who gave her, her new powers, he was observing her the whole time without saying anything.
"How did I appeared here?" She asked him suspiciously.
"Your body is resting in that cave where you found shelter, only your subconscious is here." Raynor words shocked her for second as she looked at her own hands, she didn't look like a ghost or something like similar to that!
"This place is my domain, where laws are whatever I make them." He slowly got up from his throne and walked over to the crimson-haired girl who was seriously afraid now, because not many beings she knows off have personal domains!
"Y-You... who are you?" She asked defensively.
"That is something you should find out yourself." He shrugged her question as he was standing in front of her.
"You are here so that I could teach you about the power you received from me." He pointed at her right hand.
"First of all, your affinity with fire, light, sky and the very physical aspect of any kind, has reached the very peak, when you are in direct sunlight your physical performance will increase over ten times, your wounds will heal at an extremely accelerated rate." He said that in a single breath, then he narrowed his eyes.
"That means that in night time you will receive bȧrėbones of my blessing." He warned her.
Rubia's eyes bulged out for a second when she heard how many powers she has now!
But, then she remembered legends and stories of times before Shrine Maidens could form contracts and how people used to worship... Gods...
"You are a God... are you?" The Ex-Fire Queen asked with wide eyes, she said that while still not believing herself!
Then she saw his reaction and Rubia Elstein know the truth.
Yep, she received blessing from real goddam God!
"I am impressed...I thought this world doesn't know the concept of Gods and only worships spirits." Raynor said that with impressed voice.
Raynor then eyes slightly widened because he realised that the girl might have a mental breakdown, So he quickly operated his laws to stop that, and clarify his very existence directly instead of explaining himself.
Otherwise she will blame him for not slapping the Elemental Lords before they went crazy...
Well, it's not their fault that some crazy darkness from different reality made them go batshit crazy.
Several seconds later she calmed down and looked directly at him.
While she didn't receive a detailed explanation about who he was. she in broad terms know that he was a mortal who became a Deity and has means to travel between realities, and that came to this world ot get two Spirits.
Rubia took a deep breath and looked directly into his eyes.
"You have the power to fix this! they are no match for you!"
Raynor internally ġrȯȧnėd hearing that, yep that's the downside when people learn that you are the almighty god, and that you can make all their problems go away...
"I already made you my champion this alone makes you most powerful Elementalist in this world," Raynor said that with a slightly frustrated look.
"Even so! you possess power above the Elemental Lords! you could replace them or even erase them!" Rubia said that with heated voice.
"I do, and I already gave you the power to defeat them, you can call forth full power of Volcanicus combined with my given strength and Laevateinn you can be as strong as any Elemental Lord." Even so, his words didn't help this as the way she looked was slightly unstable.
Whatever she saw in the Throne Room of Elemental Lords has spooked her to this level.
"It will take time! even with my increased power, I won't be able to enter their domain casually! Unless I fight the entire world! Please! You must help me! I will do anything you ask!" The Crimson haired girl pleaded him.
This moment for some reason reminded him of certain Maiden of Orleans and her self sacrificing attitude, which constantly rubbed him the wrong way...
He just took a deep breath.
"Fine... I destroy the darkness which constantly plague the Elemental Lords." Her eyes brightened instantly when he said that.
"But the purification will be done by you or your followers, you only need to attack them when you entered the throne room and destroyed the thrones." His explanation made her nod seriously.
He then snapped his fingers and bright light consumed the whole pocket dimension, that moment the True Darkness which was plaguing the Throne Room of the Elemental Lords simply ceased to exist, still the Elemental Lords need purifying.
"Done..." He said that with sigh.
This reminded him of his first meeting with his Yue'er, it seems he has a thing for 'damsel in distress', so it seems he has Shonen Protagonist traits as well...
"T-That's it? Y-You did all that with a snap of fingers." She took a step back, the sheer amount of power he has was utterly insane!
And she wanted to attack him before!?
"What? you expected me going to the throne room and just blast them with my flames or something like that?" He chuckled while saying that, he could do that, but that requires effort, something he will do once he decides to stick around in this reality for a longer period.
Rubia didn't say anything she just lost focus for a moment.
"Since I have dealt with the biggest threat in this world, your life now belongs to me, you are not allowed to sacrifice your life like you have planned to do," Raynor said her with very serious voice which made her flinch and take several steps back from fear.
"Y-Yes I understand!" She quickly bowed instinctually like she was trained to do so.
"Now go and sleep..." With a hand wave, her consciousness returned to her body.
'She is like your Qingyue.' Hei'er said with sigh.
'Exactly my thoughts, you have seen my memories when I meet her for the first time?' He asked his cute and lovely Asura Royal spirit.
'Yes, I did, It was... informative memory...' Hei'er sourly said that, it's what she would have done in the same situation, or any other woman who would want power would do, yet she didn't like it because how close it hit to home.
'I would think so, only the difference is that she doing this for selfless reasons and Qingyue did for selfish reason.' He said with a sigh.
He is ready to leave this place for now...
~~~~~~Raynor's Inner World~~~~~~
While Raynor was doing his thing, inside his inner world, one of his new weapon spirits woke up.
The black-haired beauty slowly opened her eyes, several fresh memories slammed into her memory.
...
It took her several moments to realise the sheer scale to whom she got contracted!
A reality hopping being whose power massively dwarfs anything her world has to offer.
And now she is his contracted spirit.
"Hmph! So, you finally awake!" Restia looked towards the source of this voice.
She saw a girl which looked quite similar to her, only the difference being their clothes and disposition.
"Who... are you? why you look similar to me?" The Darkness spirit asked.
"I am a Royal Asura spirit, in your world terms I am pure darkness spirit, above trash like demons and their kind!" The girl proudly said that.
Restia was not impressed, because she was same as this girl. As creation of Darkness Elemental Lord Ren Ashdoll, demonic spirit listen to her as well...
"So, am I..." Restia said with sigh and whatever heat the Asura Royal Spirit generated evaporated the very same moment.
"She got you there 'Little Darkness'..." The new Darkness spirit heard another voice, another female person came in, she was similar to her as well, dressed in a black dress, but this one was taller and... wilder looking.
"I am Xue Ji and I am a Shapeshifting Asura Spirit, this girl here is her 'Highness' Xiao Hei'an or 'Little Darkness'." Xue Ji said that with a smile, while Hei'er pouted at her.
"You received relevant information needed to understand what is going on?" The taller spirit asked curiously, she does remember that their master mentioned that the two new spirits should know what is going on.
"...I do... " Restia said that after some time, she was still processing what is going on.
"To put you at ease, your 'mission' is already halfway done." Xue Ji said with a smirk.
"Before our master left your home reality he 'erased' the 'true Darkness' plaguing the Elemental Lords.
" The only thing left to do is to cleanse them with 'Blade Dance' and some purifying light..." Xue Ji said that with casual hand wave, to her these problems are child's play...
Restia just sighed and nodded hearing that, since she is around beings with worlds destroying powers her world's issues are child play...
"Great now let's go greet the other sword spirit our master got." Xue Ji motioned for her to follow.
Restia realised that the Asura Royal Spirit already left without telling anyone, she probably doesn't like the shapeshifting one's teasing.
"Our master has created a city just for us to live here in his inner world." Xue Ji started to explain in detail where they were at this moment.
Once the two darkness element spirits left the house where Restia was reforming, she showed around the place which everyone calls 'Asgard', named after the Divine Realm of Norse Pantheon.
"This place is enormous! how can something like this exist inside someone's soul?" Restia was shocked, while she received the information seeing it with her own eyes is something entirely different!
"Massive? this place is only average size to a mortal city, that on other hand..." Xue Ji motioned towards the sky.
"...Is... Billions if not trillions size bigger then this city..."
Restia eyes bulged out as she saw seven coloured 'galaxies' spinning in the sky.
"Your arrival here, alongside the 'Demon Slayer' has brought revolutionising change." Xue Ji said with smirk.
The Darkness spirit snapped from looking at the sky and turned towards the Taller Darkness spirit.
"What do you mean? what kind of 'Revolutionising change'?" The smaller girl asked with a confused look, she just arrived at this place! what did she do?
"Our Master used your contract as well as the 'Demon Slayer' one to alter the Spirit realm, now every single spirit posses 'proper' Element AND can transform into 'Elemental Waffe' mode." Xue Ji said that with a smirk, as now she has three transformations in total!
The human-size one, the demonic beast, and the newest 'Elemental Waffe' form!
Restia was slightly spooked by this, whole realm was effect by a... contract?
That moment she remembered something, as her cheeks exploded.
Xue Ji smiled seeing the reaction Restia had.
Then seconds later...
"Kyaa~~~"
Both girls looked at the source of this...girlish squeal.
Moments later Hei'er dashed towards them, she had a girl in her hands as well...
Restia's eyes narrowed for a second as she knew who it was...
"Look at her! isn't she cute! can't believe there is such a cute girl who has such dreadful name as 'Demon Slayer'!" Hei'er rubbed her cheek on the white-haired girl's cheek.
The 'Demon Slayer' looked at Restia, she had a poker face.
"Darkness Spirit... you here too?" She 'cutely' asked Restia while moving her head slightly to the side.
Her simple action was like a nuclear bomb to Hei'er as The Royal Asura spirit squealed again.
"OH.MY.GOSH I am keeping her!"
Xue Ji snorted hearing that, it's seems Hei'er has picked up some of their Master's 'slang'.
