After Kireina had finally finished her late-night activities with her two new wives, Sofarpia and Sofelaia, she was deeply diving on her own dreams…

​​

And then, just like before, her dreams dispersed as she was transported to a different dreamscape, where the voice of a mature and devilish woman spoke to her, although with a rather humble tone.

"Ahem… Kireina, right?"

Kireina immediately recognized the voice, it was the same voice that once roared in pain when she blocked her arc of Divine Energy with her attack containing Divinity Devouring and Chaos Attribute Magic.

"A-Agatheina, the goddess of blood, right?! What do you need from me? Don't dare touch my family, or I swear that I will come for your head, goddess, or not!"

Over Kireina's overly cautious and aggressive response, Agatheina and Levana felt a formless pressure over their heads.

"W-Wait a second…! R-Relax, Kireina… I-I don't intend to do anything to your family! P-Please, forgive me for what I did before! Y-You can't see me through dreams, but I'm kneeling right now, I swear as the Goddess of Blood that I am!"

The sudden change in tone and perspective that Kireina had from the merciless Vampire Goddess of Blood made her even warier…

"What are you trying to do? Don't think that because your actions may be good, I will fall for it!"

'How cautious is this woman?!' Agatheina thought.

However, Kireina's wariness was justified, just some days ago Agatheina had commanded her Vampires to exterminate Kireina, giving them special artifacts that could track her down and even had given them pieces of Divine Beast Flesh for their consumption so they could ensure victory… yet they all died and were eaten.

Levana glanced at her grandmother with a worried expression.

"G-Grandmother, are you sure that this will work?" Levana's voice resonated inside the dream, the voice of a young girl took aback Kireina, who assumed that Agatheina was a lonely woman who only seeks power.

"Hm? Who is that? I'm getting rather tired of so many gods talking in my dreams! I'm getting out of here…!"

And as Kireina was about to leave, Agatheina shouted, with a desperate voice that Kireina did not expect.

"Nooooooo! Waaaait, please! Please wait!"

"Huh? A-Are you really a Goddess?"

"Kireina, please, don't be so harsh… After knowing your strength, I can only try to become your ally, I deeply apologize for my rash behavior earlier and for everything, I'm willing to pay the price with my dungeon, my family, or even… my body, if you so desire"

Before, Kireina was being offered such things by Demi-Gods, but a Goddess, who was several ranks in power above them was now asking for her forgiveness, while also offering her body, even. This only made Kireina even more confused…

"W-What this change in personality? I always saw you as the devilish goddess that seeks power, are you so desperate to survive?"

Seeing how Kireina calmed down and heard her words, Agatheina released a sigh of relief.

"Haah… that's not right, and the path to power is also at your side Kireina… Aren't you really interested in having a Goddess like me as your ally? Whenever you ascend to godhood, you will be persecuted by several gods, who will only want your head… Having allies is important, although I tried to kill you… That's why I'm willing to give you everything I have"

"I may have damaged you, but that's not enough for you to become so submissive with me, right? Do you have other intentions, backhanded intentions?"

"Please… I'm begging you… For that reason, I'm leaving you all of my precious children to you, you can enslave them to ensure their trust, I will allow that… You see, after failing, my children will be most likely punished by their mediocrity by the Demons in Thanatos… and the Demon Gods will most likely be angry at me for getting damaged by a mortal… They may try to kill you as well, so it's not so bad to have me, a former enemy, in your side. I could tell you even more things that could serve you well…"

Kireina was wary, but detected no ill intentions from Agatheina's presence, even after she activated all of her sense skills, fused them with her Soul and Aura and also her Mind skills, generating a powerful sensing power that could even travel through dreamscape and detect the current state of the gods talking to her, she only detected fear for her life and intentions to change and become her ally.

Kireina sighed.

"Alright, but how will the rewards be? And if your dungeon is near Thanatos, I can't take it yet… And about your children… Well, I may have some methods of teleportation, but make sure to tell them beforehand about the alliance"

Kireina had suddenly accepted Agatheina's offer, this, filled her with joy and happiness, alongside hope. Now that she could be an ally with such a strong being, the survivability of her people could be assured, alongside her slow rise to the top… Levana at her side could sense the happiness of her grandmother.

Agatheina, remembering Levana's state, also decided to bring her into the conversation.

"Thanks, you so much, Master Kireina… And about the other voice you heard, this is Levana, my granddaughter, she was born from one of my male children, who mated with the Great Goddess of Beasts, Ova, she is the progenitor of all Bat Beastmen, although her existence is widely unknown due to her nature…"

"G-Grandmother, you can't just…!" yelled Levana.

"Wait, 'Master' Kireina…? And… Levana? Are you one of Morpheus sisters?"

"Y-Yes, I am, n-nice to meet you, M-Master Kireina, thank you very much for your benevolence… I can see why my siblings, who have forgotten about my existence, had trusted you so much… I will leave my little children to you as well… I can give you everything I own, even my… b-body if you so desire… P-Please be gentle…!"

Now, two gods were calling Kireina 'Master', she didn't know what to think about this situation, she didn't like how such high beings called her a Master, but she remained silent about the matter.

And also, two goddesses were openly offering their bodies to her, two goddesses who have lived for hundreds of years, worshiped by many… Kireina couldn't really say that she wasn't excited about the possibilities, but she was also very confused over the demeanor that gods take, unlike the one she assumed they had.

Nonetheless, unlike Agatheina who had tried to harm her, Levana was completely unrelated to this, so Kireina tried to treat her like she had tried every other god, relatively polite, but casual.

"Ahem, it is also nice to meet you, Levana, the Demi-Goddess of Bat beastmen… And please, don't treat me like Master, that goes to your grandmother as well, it feels awkward"

Agatheina's voice resonated first, blocking Levana.

"T-That's fine… t-then how do we refer to you? Kireina-sama? Lady Kireina? Maybe Goddess Kireina!��� said Agatheina.

"Ah! Goddess Kireina may be good… well if she will become the leader of the Pantheon… Pantheon Goddess, perhaps?" added Levana.

Kireina stopped them once again.

"Just Kireina, Kireina is fine… Please, let's go back to the main topic…"

The two goddesses were taken aback, as the two were lost in their thoughts, embarrassing themselves while Kireina, a mortal, seemed more composed than them.

"T-That's right… About our children…"

"The two groups live together, thanks to grandmother, my bat children found a place to call home"

"I see, I was about to ask you where your descendants' village was, well, that just makes the transport easier"

Afterward, Kireina explained her plan on how to transport all of the Vampires, who gathered inside the giant manor in the territory they owned in the Thanatos Kingdom.

It was… a stupidly simple plan, but it seemed like the two Goddesses didn't possess such abilities as her.

"I will just place teleportation traps in their manor with my Slime Clones, and they will instantly teleport to a restricting zone in my Empire, although I need to set everything up first, I will try to hurry up due to the urgency of the situation…"

"Impressive, using the artifacts that can be created in Dungeons…? Us Gods aren't really allowed to place things in the outside world that much, so we can't freely shape the landscape to our liking to protect our children… but because you're a mortal with the tools of a god, it's possible!" said Agatheina, filled with hope.

After receiving the strong attack from Kireina, she became warier of herself and that she could still die as a Goddess, and due to this, the affection that she was restraining inside of her heart slowly leaked outside, she was not genuinely worried about the Vampires and their safety, resembling a younger Goddess than the old and cold ones.

"Yes, it is an incredibly good idea…! And about the prizes… Please, take these…"

The Goddess then used a large amount of Divine Energy to send special artifacts into Kireina's Item Box through strange means.

"Is this how you sent items to your descendants?"

"More or so…" answered Agatheina.

"There are two artifacts that we had saved, who were once owned by our strongest Champions of each race, alongside other small artifacts like detection items and the jewels made out of our blood, which can grant powerful self-regeneration, although I don't think you particularly need it, it could be useful for others" explained Levana, with a calmer tone.

"We could also give you our Divine Materials, and even all of our Divine Realm, and descend into a mortal vessel if you are still angered with us… Though I don' know if you could use them as you cannot manipulate Divine Energy, you can only eat it or send it back, right?" added Agatheina.

"You know a lot… but yes, they would be useless as I am now, but I may use them in the future, save them for now. And I don't need you to descend into a mortal vessel, wouldn't that make you very weak? So, no"

"As you say, Kireina-sama!" said the two Goddesses at the same time.

Kireina sighed over them using the honorific of 'sama', but she didn't say anything else about it.

The two goddesses were bewildered, their plan for survivability had succeeded, they had successfully curry-flavored Kireina, and the safety of their children was more or less assured.

Along the artifacts given to Kireina, there was a special device that she could use to talk with her, resembling a small pocket-sized mirror.

"That mirror will be of use so we can contact you more…"

"I see… I wonder why the other Beast Gods didn't give me any of these?"

"That must be because they lack the experience and connections to create a Divine Artifact, it was thanks to several of the Demon Gods that I was able to create these, there are some who are exceptionally good at crafting"

"Divine Artifacts��� but wouldn't this need Divine Energy to work?"

"Ah, no worries, it is connected to my soul, so I will supply it with Divine Energy whenever it needs… I can also take a lot of damage if that Artifact is destroyed, as it's not made with particularly strong materials… it is an insurance for you, with that artifact you hold my life as well, I hope that you can trust me more from now on…"

"An insurance…? You've gone to such lengths; I suppose your intentions are genuine"

Agatheina was happy over Kireina's recognition, as some strange feeling filled her heart, perhaps it was one of Kireina's charm effects, that could even affect gods if they were willingly submissive to her, or just her own individual feelings, although it was more of the first option.

"I'm glad you recognize me, Kireina-sama, Levana as well. Right?"

"Ah…! Y-Yes! Please, take care of my children…"

"I will…"

Kireina remembered the words of Mysterious Voice and decided to trust the Goddess for once, gaining new Divine Existences as allies. She was aware of her situation, so she decided to gather as many of these types of allies as possible, so she could be well-protected when she raised to godhood. She assumed that this would happen whenever she reached the max level, and although it was still quite far, it would happen eventually.

Kireina had not only developed a better understanding of others positions and perspectives but had grown slightly more benevolent, she not only desired to conquer and govern but also to protect what was hers, so she had already the intentions of taking good care of the Vampires and Bat Beastmen, as they were to soon become her citizens and subordinates.

Perhaps, due to the influence of her wives, or her Title as "False Goddess" and "Chimera Holy Mother", she not only was merciless with her enemies but developed a benevolent and protective side to her citizens and allies.

However, the news about Agatheina betraying her Demon God allies and the Thanatos Kingdom will soon be widely known, and the Demons who were once allies of the Vampires will now persecute them like terrible enemies.

Kireina had woke up in the middle of the night and immediately began preparations, using large quantities of MP, Soul Energy, and Mass, she ate thousands of kilograms of food while producing Slime Clones, and created teleportation traps with her Dungeon Maintenance Skill.

Carrying the teleportation traps which were adjusted by Kireina, the hundreds of Slime Clones used Stealth Skills and Levitate to fly through the sky undetected, in a few hours of incredibly fast travel using Kireina's shared Skills, they would reach Thanatos.

"Phew… This should do,"

As Kireina rested over the bed, she glanced at the two beautiful Centaur twins, Sofarpia and Sofelaia, who were peacefully sleeping while being covered in large bedsheets.

"Ah, this is my first time seeing them sleep like this, they are really adorable…"

Afterward, Kireina used a Teleportation Gate that she had installed in the Cilane Kingdom Royal Castle and went back to her Empire for some time, beginning preparations while most of her population were sleeping, she searched for a free zone, which was recently paved and then began to order Undead to construct hundreds of homes with her Construction System, making materials saved in the Castle appear out of thin air. The Undead worked diligently as if they always knew how to construct large houses.

Just to make sure, she decided to create large barriers surrounding this zone, there wasn't any insurance in that some Vampire or Bat Beastmen wouldn't like this idea and could try to harm her or her weaker citizens, so she was even prepared for something like this.

The sun slowly began to emerge from within the Icy Wall Mountains, once again illuminating the Realm of Vida. Kireina saw this not just as a simple morning, but as a new beginning, a new era, the unification of the Realm of Vida wasn't so hard now, which would end up also ensuring the safety of her wives and children.

These were her inner desires, a haven for her children to thrive, and this is why she could see herself in these Gods and Demi-Gods positions, who also wanted to ensure the safety of their precious descendants.
