Chapter 834 A New Goddess Emerges -----
Yggdrasil was an enormous tree that had been growing stronger over eons since her accidental birth, she had been slowly absorbing the energies of the world and growing stronger to the point where she could also be considered a being above Gods, but she lacked the ability to properly fight. Bound to enormous trees, there was a limit of how much she could do for others. And felt frustrated she wasn't able to fight to defend the planet.
But Manationia was the perfect vessel. She had to simply give this girl her powers and she would be able to work as something like her own vessel! But what was a vessel? In simple terms it was an entity capable of holding another being, a vessel of the power of Yggdrasil! But Yggdrasil was incapable of completely detaching herself from the planet, but she still had an incredible amount of power and various tree bodies interconnected through hundreds of kilometers of underground roots that crossed even the seas.
The plan that Yggdrasil had was quite simple, she was going to infuse a part of her soul into Manationia, recovering her stamina in the process, and then allow her to fuse with the biggest tree she had grown, the first one she had, and interestingly enough, the one whose roots belonged to where she was located!
"Manationia, fuse with my soul and this tree body!" Said Yggdrasil, sensing how Aqua was battling to defend the planet, she didn't had much time left, she had to do something, and through Manationia, there was such an option!
"W-What?!" Asked Manationia in shock. She didn't knew what Yggdrasil was even talking about!
"B-But you're a giant tree, that's…!" Muttered Manationia, however, Yggdrasil stopped her from talking.
"You can do it! You already did it with the Hivemind, it shouldn't be so hard to do it with me… Here, hold my hand and I shall guide you…" Said Yggdrasil, her silver eyes looked directly into Manationia's soul as the young Manationia felt frightened for a bit. She was doubtful, she was a bit scared, even, but she also wanted to help, to change the fate of this planet and to defeat the invaders… She had already gotten herself involved, she couldn't back down now.
Despite this, she felt a bit of fear, after all, she still needed many years of experience to overcome her childish behaviors, although she had already done a great job… But Yggdrasil to her was someone she just meet today; she didn't know if what she was saying was the truth completely and felt doubtful because of this reason.
"Please, Manationia, trust me…" Sighed Yggdrasil. "I want to protect this world."
"…Okay!"
Manationia decided to not doubt anymore, holding Yggdrasil's phantasmal hand, a strong connection between the two's souls was formed! The soul of Yggdrasil and the soul of Manationia nourished one another with their energies, as the tow saw a bit of each other's memories, and Yggdrasil saw her life until now, how she was born as a little farm girl, how she slowly grew as one, sometimes bullied because of her dreams, but always keeping her cheerful attitude.
"This girl is… I see, so pure… I guess she's really someone deserving of becoming my vessel, let's make a strong bond contract together, Manationia!" Said Yggdrasil, as the two souls suddenly connected together by a strong bond, so strong it was an incredibly strong one, their souls felt as if they were holding hands, always!
And then, Manationia began to automatically fuse with the tree's roots, her entire body and soul turned into an enormous soul, fusing with it!
FLAAAASH!
The entire tree began to grow even larger than before, growing limbs and even a figure carved on its wood, it was like as if Manationia had become a doll made of wood, and even wings covered in plants and leaves appeared! It was quite a beautiful sight to behold in all honestly!
And the entire planet began to tremble as the titan slowly began to move…!
TRUUUUMMM…!
…
Meanwhile, as this was happening, within the outer space of Eden, a fight continued! The Valkyries unleashed their strongest techniques, after having finally slain all other enemies except the Hivemind Matriarch, they had believed things would go to the better, but the Matriarch developed new powers after having bitten that one Angel, and she was constantly developing her powers.
Her once mortal soul had already become divine! And she was gluttonous, she wanted to devour more angels to acquire even more power, she was unleashing her powers constantly. Now that she got the power of divine energy, she fused it with the energy of the star she had snatched from her star system, and fused both powers to unleash terrifying attacks!
But above all, she had acquired something else! When she devoured half of that angel, she acquired knowledge and memories. The memories and knowledge of the angel whose half she had eaten. These memories filled her with knowledge about The One, the universe itself, magic, divinities, realms, everything an angel knew for common sense! She realized this world had three primordial deity pillars, and that there were even many more planets filled with juicy gods to devour everywhere!
She also learned how to properly use divine energy and the power of the star she held, and she knew all of this and learned it quite swiftly so, all ready to unleash its powers… In a second, she quickly conjured new servants, summoning them through her powers!
"Angels of Flames, emerge!" She said, as several magic circles emerged around her, and thousands of entities made of pure flames from her star emerged one after the other, they had the appearance of angels wearing armor, and emanated a strong radiation and heat! She had just summoned an entire army in seconds, all thanks to the knowledge she had acquired.
The Hivemind Matriarch might had lost her children, but what she gained instead was outstanding!
