I was a merciful goddess, I let him have a second chance, because I've had plenty myself. It was only fair after all, right? Killing things instantly wasn't my thing... Unless they really, really pissed me off, and were genuinely malicious pieces of shit.
This Lich though, he was just being ignorant, stupid, foolish. But he wasn't vile or malicious, they were all genuinely worried about the fate of Abyss, the world where the Blood Progenitors originated from.
From what I've learned, the Blood Progenitors came from Abyss somehow, even though I'm fairly sure it is incredibly hard for aliens to enter Genesis, maybe they came from Hell. Or they were somehow reincarnated souls from Abyss, maybe that did it? Either of the two options doesn't matter anyways.
What matters is what they did. From what the Undead have investigated in the ruins they've left behind, they helped the "foolish and ignorant people" of this Realm to rise. This is how they were able to form two large nations and even dozens of smaller ones, most of them have ended being conquered by the other two.
After both evolving the beings of this Realm and experimenting as much as they wanted with them, finding and discovering new ways to grow stronger themselves, they used the powers they gathered in this world to create a portal to their original world, Abyss.
Once they left, the civilization they built were tasked with hiding the three pieces of the gate that broke down once they left, and so on and so forth.
"There it is..." I smiled, as I noticed the large red stone fragment floating in midair, in the middle of the ancient ruins, there was a thin bubble of divine power forcing the item to float like that. Its presence alone generated a small barrier that could protect a few people inside of it, not like it mattered. "Please, handle it with care, these fragments are- Ahh!" The Lich panicked as he saw me breaking the barrier and then grasping the red stone without any hesitation or carefulness.
"Hm? Did you say something?" I wondered.
"N-No..." He sighed.
Ignoring his words, I imbued some of my powers into the fragment, which quickly made it react. I borrowed the Blood God's Authority I stole from him, and completely dominate the piece.
A tremendous, abyssal aura surged from within, slowly making its way to the power source I was planning to go for after a few minutes. This bastard's really trying to get to it before me!
"Change of plans, we're diving down!"
"Eh? Kireina-sama?!"
Agatheina was confused as I held her in my arms like the adorable vampire princess I liked to think she was, as I leaped out of Luminous' back.
FLAAASH!
With all my strength into my heels, I kicked the ground below, a powerful shockwave was generated. The shockwave ran through the floor and stone, shattering everything and blowing away billions of pieces of debris everywhere.
BAAAMMM!
The bedrock of Ravenfolt shook, a realm-wide earthquake just happened, but I didn't have the time to care about it, as I summoned my Swarm Aura, shaped it into gigantic drills, and began digging as much as I could.
"What's going on?!" Agatheina asked.
"That Outer God bastard's trying to get to the Realm Cores of both Ravenfolt and Atlantis!" I said. "He somehow divided an avatar or something down there, we have to stop him, or he'll get back the strength he lost from Buddha's palm attack, and what's worse, he could take over the entire realm like it happened in Helheim."
"I see..." Agatheina gasped. "Then let me help as well!" Her Divine Blood Aura helped me dig down, and so did Luminous and his dragons, piercing through the bedrock, we only had seconds before he could get to it.
CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!
