Chapter 1002 Divine Legacy

"Huh?" Aether was stunned after seeing the living Goddesses in front of him.

Nell was a thing to consider, but Lifa and Rhea were hard to deal with since they were considered tyrants and nearly unapproachable for their time.

Not to mention, there were two Goddesses from another world and another two hiding inside the body of a mortal girl. However, this mortal girl named Elysia was also not as simple as it seemed.

"You came back much quicker than expected." Fortuna had just finished making a snowman, and Nell had returned with God's remnant soul.

"Yeah, I was pretty lucky, and everything went well because we're old friends. Unlike a certain stubborn one." Nell rubbed her head as she felt she didn't put much effort this time. They even found this legacy site easily, thanks to Luna.

"Woah, another little ghost." Elysia was amazed when she saw the little ice ghost near Nell. She left her igloo to take a closer look.

"I am the beastkin progenitor, not the little ice ghost. I was known in the past as Ice God, rank fourteenth in the Divine Order." Aether immediately put up his authority.

"Wow, rank fourteenth. Which one is stronger between you and the Sky God then?" Sylvia approached curiously.

"Divine Ice is superior to wind and thunder. Isn't the answer obvious?" Aether puffed out his chest.

Unfortunately, the little ghost had no charisma of his past glory. It was cute instead.

"All right. What do you think about Yuuki? She is an eight-tailed snow fox with extreme ice innate ability. Is she worthy to inherit your Heavenly Ice?" Nell pointed her palm towards Yuuki.

"Eh?" Yuuki pointed to her face.

"Hm, she looks quite promising. It's like a half-finished gem. But, why is she under contract with someone? What a pity, she belongs to someone. Heavenly Ice is superior and the inheritor must be able to rise to the top independently. Unless she can revoke her contract with her owner, she can't touch a candle of my Heavenly Ice." Aether sighed and shook his head. He then patted Nell on the shoulder. "I'm sorry my friend, I can't pass my primary legacy to your people."

"Ah." Nell rubbed her cheek with an awkward expression. She glanced at Yuuki and Elysia with an innocent expression, saying she wasn't involved in that situation.

"Hmph! What's wrong with that? My bond with my master is eternal. Such a puny ice is just like a grovel by the roadside compared to my master." Yuuki snorted sarcastically and folded her arms. That remark truly offended her.

"Huh? A little pet, and you dare to talk back to me? Introduce your master in front of me, and we'll see that you're nothing more than an ignorant frog who can only stare at the sky from the well." Aether was irritated. He usually kept calm in all situations. Still, he could not tolerate ridiculing his Heavenly Ice like that.

"Ack! What are you doing?" Aether was suddenly squeezed from the side.

"Couldn't you be a little more polite? You talk more than that and you could be knocked out for real. I'm serious, her master isn't someone you can offend." Nell immediately reminded her old friend solemnly. She glanced at Elysia and Elena in case they would do something for Yuuki.

"Is it like that?" Aether was surprised at his old friend's remark.

"Yo, just give it up, my old buddy. That can be counted as a great contribution to our existence. We should quickly pass our primary legacy and complete our duties worldwide. In this way, we can dissipate in peace." A little wind ghost emerged from a cube in Evelyn's hand. He went over and put his arm around his old buddy's shoulders.

"You, you are the Sky God's remnant soul? Did you die too? I thought you ran away because of your cowardice." Aether could recognize this little wind ghost with just a glance.

"What are you saying? I am a brave warrior. You must pass your primary legacy to someone worthy enough to hold it as I did. For the 2nd, 3rd, 4th tier inheritance, and so on... we can pass them on to some promising young generations at the Sky Library.

That way, we have a one hundred percent chance of getting a God-tier heir and a bunch of opportunities for mass produce the chance for a new God to appear." Sorush persuaded his old buddy as he would love someone to accompany him on the boat.

"What's the point of that?" Aether frowned as he failed to understand.

Sorush then explained several important things about this divine group, especially the key factor for everything, namely Elysia. This divine group revolved around this seemingly powerless young girl, and Aether almost offended the big boss unknowingly.

"Give me your Heavenly Ice. I can help you to make it easier for you to choose more worthy inheritors in the Sky Library. Maybe, Vrelenia can have more than one new Ice God in the future." Nell held out her hand.

"You will give my Heavenly Ice to her? Even though she is a beastkin, she is a female. My Heavenly Ice and the primary legacy is for the future Ice God, a male God!" Aether scratched her head and exited with another reason.

"Then, take off the limiter and let us handle the rest. How bold of you to put the limitation just by gender. Ice is ice, it doesn't matter whether the holder is male or female." Nell replied with a crafty smile.

"..." Aether was under enormous anxiety. He was amid several Goddesses and had no choice but to comply. He only needed to give his little gift to help this divine group save the world.

"Worry not. I also handed over my primary legacy to her after removing the limitation. If you've seen that snow fox girl is actually worth it, then please go with it." Sorush sighed and patted his old buddy on the back. He was originally stubborn and held his ground, but he couldn't bear Nell's bullying.

That said, Aether handed his Heavenly Ice to Nell with a heavy heart. He then whispered to his old buddy via telepathy. 'You handed over your Impeccable Storm? Who have you chosen to hold your primary legacy?'

'You can find her if you observe those girls more closely. She had an almost perfect affinity for divine wind and lightning. Anyway, I hope we win the decisive battle, and then we can put our trial grounds in the Sky Library. There will be a bunch of Sky God's variants in the future! If the real me has the chance to cross the world to Vrelenia, he will be wide-eyed in shock, hehe...' Sorush looked up at the sky full of expectations.

'That Spirit-level human girl holding your trial ground gate, huh? Well, anyway, I have seen that this is the divine group, but where did the other three Gods go? That should be the six that are still alive, right? There are only the Goddesses here.' Aether looked right and left as if he was looking for someone.

'They are busy with their things. Oceanid, Regulus, and Xerroth move independently, but they occasionally hang out with this group.' Sorush replied, then flew back to the cube artifact in Evelyn's hands.

"Yuuki, Ice God gave his Heavenly Ice to you. Take it and merge this with your soul." Nell brought the divine ice drop to Yuuki.

"I don't want Heavenly Ice or anything like that." Yuuki refused instantly. She didn't even glance at that divine ice as if it was just a worthless item.

"Come on, don't be like that. I have removed the limitation, and there are no conditions as excessive as what Ice God said. You have Ely to help everyone too. You will no longer feel cold with your extreme ice power." Nell waved her hand, trying to persuade Yuuki.

"But Eve hasn't even merged the Sky God's legacy with her soul." Yuuki tried to feel a spiritual connection to Evelyn through her master. She could tell the Impeccable Storm was still dormant in Evelyn's soul realm.

"That's because Eve can only refine it gradually with her Spirit-level power. You are an Empress, and can refine it in one go. Perhaps, we will have a Celestial Fox from the myth soon?" Elysia patted Yuuki's back and glanced at Evelyn.

"Mm, that's right. I need some time to completely refine it even with Ely's help." Evelyn nodded in confirmation.

"Celestial Fox..." Yuuki muttered softly and tried to imagine her cool-looking nine-tailed fox beast transformation.

Since her master had such expectations for her, she received the Heavenly Ice reluctantly.

"That's good for you, Yuuki." Sylvia hugged Yuuki from behind.

"Ah, you are heavy. Don't ask me to carry you." Yuuki staggered forward, almost lost her balance, and fell into the snow.

"Mou, I am obviously as light as a feather. But, I feel a bit envious. Is there a dark-element related legacy left?" Sylvia pouted and ignored Yuuki's complaint.

"You can beg the Heretic God, the devil's former God. Get off my back now, you devil." Yuuki pushed Sylvia's face from her shoulder.

"No chance. He is so stingy and I don't want to beg him." Sylvia snorted, then got off Yuuki.

"We have Ai and Zera. You can ask them for pointers." Elysia replied with an amused smile. Yuuki and Sylvia's friendship exchange was always adorable.

"Ah, that's right. We have the Void Goddess and Chaos Goddess of Destruction on our side. Instead of legacy, I can learn directly from the real powerhouses of divine darkness!" Sylvia dropped her fist onto her open palm.
