"I don’t know... probably not. The Celestial Races are vastly different from other races. I won’t know until I gain their racial essence to analyze," Ray said with a shrug."Anyway," Ray turned his attention back to Elfie, who was looking at herself and her new wings, trying to get used to her newfound abilities."Are you feeling okay?" Ray asked, rubbing her head."Yes, I feel great," Elfie replied with a smile, clearly enjoying the patting."What about you, Arlen?" Ray looked at her brother.Both of them had a high-level affinity with the Angelic race.That was why Ray turned them into high-class angels.Since Ray had already given them the essence of other races before their transformation, the effects of those other races strongly influenced the transitioning process.Unlike others, the traits of those races grew out predominantly.As a result, they might have felt overwhelmed, but Ray’s presence seemed to ease the effects, allowing them to handle it better.Maria also had a very

Lillian and the other countesses, old as they were, had never dealt with giants or high-level spirits, especially not ones with such intelligence and power, equal to that of gods. Most elemental spirits were little more than instinct-driven beings, shaped like random monsters. They didn’t speak, nor did they have practical intelligence. Before coming here to Muspelheim, Ray and his companions had visited Jotunheim. When Ray appeared before Ymir, the Ice Giant King had spoken the exact same words as Surtr. At first, Ymir hadn’t believed him either, until Ray revealed the very thing he was about to show the Fire Giant King. "You want proof? I’ll give you proof," Ray muttered, activating a particular transformation he had never used before, a form so powerful and nearly invincible that he had never felt the need to rely on it. [The Nature’s Wrath: Developed Transformation Activated] This form came into existence when Ray merged all nine elemental essences into one energy called [N

Walking through the gate, they appeared in a grey, rocky world covered in ice, hidden by mist that blinded even gods. Ray raised his hand, gathering [Nature Essence] before releasing it in waves. Instead of a concentrated attack, the waves converted all mist and ice nearby into wind for hundreds of meters around them. “That’s one handy ability, to transform one element into another with just a wave of your hand…” the goddess Frigga muttered, clearly impressed. “Well, you can do the same with magic,” Ray replied. “I know, but abilities are still better than spells.” “I can’t argue with that,” Ray agreed. “It’s been a long time since I was last here,” Freya muttered. “Good to see Hela hasn’t changed anything.” “Hmm… how long has it been since you last saw her?” Ray asked curiously. “About seventy millennia,” Frigga muttered. “That long, huh?” Ray nodded. “What can I say? She loves her alone time a little too much. I think she’s been in closed-door training or some

Ray could feel both their arms vibrating with fear."He will not attack you," Ray said, sighing."E-Easy for you to say. T-The Norse gods are destined to be devoured by him," Freya said, still trembling, and Frigga nodded restlessly."Fenrir, will you devour them?" Ray asked."No, Your Majesty," Fenrir replied with an expressionless face."See? He said it himself. He won’t. Now stop acting like children," Ray said, and the women reluctantly let go of his arms.Soon, they reached a grand palace known as the Hall of Hela, Eljudnir.Ray didn’t even need to step inside, as the Queen of the Palace herself came out, sensing the presence of someone she hadn’t sensed in a very long time."Hela?" Freya and Frigga looked upon her with surprise as they saw a tall and slender goddess walking out in a black-and-green gothic floral attire that covered her entire arms and a slim gown reaching the floor.Her long, straight black hair perfectly complemented her pale skin and emerald-green eyes, which

“I’m glad you decided to focus on your other divine concepts and not just Time,” Ray muttered, patting her shoulder.“Yes… once I began to concentrate on my Divinity of Death, my strength grew significantly. A few years later, I also managed to comprehend the Divine Concepts of Souls, Beauty, Ice, and Decay,” Hela said.“Once I focused on them alongside the Concept of Death, I managed to gain comprehension of the Divine Concepts of Purity and Darkness, and after a few hundred years, I also gained comprehension of the Divine Concept of Annihilation,” she added, smiling.“So many divine concepts… no wonder your presence is the way it is,” Frigga said, stunned.“The Concept of Annihilation… that’s even stronger than the Divine Concept of Destruction,” Freya said, sighing slightly in jealousy.“Usually, gods find it extremely hard to cultivate more than one divinity. There’s an unspoken rule: once a god or goddess achieves comprehension of three divinities, they usually cannot gain more.
