It was the m of the day within my Inner Realm. Time Dition ossible here as well; I could accelerate its internal time up to a huimes faster thaime outside. But to make it possible for us to sleep well and synize with the outside world, I disabled the Time Dition fun. Right now, it was m. The Rainbow Sun , formed of nine colorful stars I had refined long ago, rose from the horizon, illuminating my expansive Inner Realm with a myriad of beautiful colors.
The gentle sound of the Immemorial Fountain of Youth behind me created a nice background noise as I woke up from my sleep. I was strong enough that I didn’t need sleep at all, but sleeping was like a delicious cup of wi still felt o do so, and it calmed things such as stress and soul exhaustion. Although I wasn’t going through the tter, I was slightly stressed.
Not because I was going to fight Gods, but because I was worried about my family, and it made me feel slightly guilty for being too direct with my approaches. Imaginiing them involved in something terrible was one of my worst nightmares. Now that I have two people I o protect, I ’t be too reckless in my attempts.
Or, well, I simply have to do it alone while they’re not watg!
For now, however, I was looking at a skill I have possessed sihe beginning of my new journey oh. Ohat Clide, the only Administrator I’ve trusted, grao me and also to my sister.

Its description ged the moment I obtained a Css, yes.
Especially this:
-----
Increases the amount of Stats gained per Level by x2 of the chosen Css Stat Growth.
Increases the amount of Skill Points and Stat Points earned by 10 after taking a Css, grants access to the Skill Shop.
-----
The amount of Stats I earn per level is now doubled, and above all, the Stat and Skill Points I get per level are also made into 10 instead of the previous 5. My mother told me most people earween 1 and 3 stat and skill points per level, so I was ridiculously privileged with my higher growth.
Although the System is something like a piece of equipment for me, it might bee a powerful on to devour the Gods and obtain their powers properly, so I have begun to both appreciate it more and desire to make it grow faster.
Why do I want their powers? So the Worlds they manage don’t end up colpsing or dying. If I bee the world's pilrs instead, they will be spared from destru. Therefore, dev the power of the Gods and taking their pce as the goddess of these worlds is also my new pn, something I’ve thought about as I slept in my dream realm.
For now, I have over three huhousand Credits, so I should be able to easily upgrade this Skill. I also spend credits in some Credit Shop thing? But I bet there’ll be more useless items there. I will check it ter, I suppose, just for the sake of it.
Ding!

Iing! That’s quite a lot of upgrades and three new Abilities right away. I could spend the Credits again, but I’ll save them for ter. Seeing how I don’t gain more stats out of leveling the skill, there’s not much of an urge right now.
More importantly, it seems I ow sponsor people. I should try doing this with my mother and my sister first. Perhaps simply helping them cultivate is not the only thing I do now. If I could turn them into my Avatars, they could bee even stronger.
But my “Divinity” is developing; it is not something that existed in Murim, the growth of this world is pletely different. And for my Divinity to grow, I either o create a religion or just eat other beings that already possess Divinity.
“I should try to prehend this better now- Ah.”
I realized my sister and my mother were on my left and right sides. They wao cuddle with me after the “terrific” talk of yesterday, and like the family we are, we simply slept in the same bed. It was o be hugged by my family after so long. It almost made me feel like when I was a little child.
I stealthily walked away from the bed while the two were still sleeping soundly, taking a bath ierfall behind my pace while admiring the beauty of nature aing in silence. While being naked, I sat cross-legged.
“Let’s see… Divinity and Mana, is it?”
I eled my I and Energies into the System, looking through what it had absorbed for me and quickly infusing it into my body. Aside from the endless seas of Mana, which had increased by almost ten times their inal numbers, there was a small sparkle of golden light. This must be the Divinity, isn’t it?
“Let me grasp that.”
I moved the Mana and the Divinity into my body. While I refined more Primordial Essence Dew Drops with the Mana and the Immortal Essenbination, I analyzed the sparkle of light. Its nature and essence were pletely alien to any power I had acquired before, yet it still felt both frail and strong.
“I easily destroy this if I want, but I must el its powers.”
The small glowing light tinued growing rger and brighter, finally nding in the middle of my chest as I deposited it inside of my Primordial Core. Rapidly, the entire Divinity spread its roots, further bining its esseh my energies.
FLASH!
And I felt my power suddenly rise tremendously, for a bit before everythi back to normal. It was very faint, but the power of a Divinity was amazing!
“So this is your pods. Iing.” I giggled to myself. “Well, cultivating this the normal way doesn’t seem tthen it. I’ll truly o eat a God, huh? Well, not like I haveen old geezers before to bee stronger.”
I had to kill all previous Venerables of Murim to asd into an even higher existehan them, so I wasn’t fn to the whole cept of dev another person’s powers. However, I don’t know if I could call these “Gods” persons, seeing how they’re more akin to monsters due to their nature and ins.
I had acquired some new Skills as well, somethied to the Pope and the Spirit I killed. One of them allowed me to jure... a much weaker version of my Photon Esses, and the tter has the ability to summon spirits of light.
Both seemed okay; perhaps if I could bihem with my abilities, I could create stronger soldiers of light. However, I’ll leave that possibility for ter.
More importantly, and the most amazing skill I’ve acquired so far, is this:
-----
[God Predator (SSS): Lv2]
[Skill EXP]: [11.740/200.000]
A Css Skill that only belongs to the Divine Css: [God Eating Camity: Ragnar?k].
Devour the Divinity of your foes. By killing and abs the powers of Gods and their Avatars, you devour their Divinity to drastically increase your Stats and i Skills and Titles from them. The rger the prey, the strohe rewards. The higher the level, the more power you draw and assimite from your prey.
Level Bonus (2): Deals +100% more Damage against Gods and their Avatars. Increases the amount of Stats, Skills, and Divinity assimited through God Predator by +20%.
-----
Simple description for an SSS Rank Skill, but it works. It does what o be done. I believe the description might be smaller because it was a Skill the System had to just retly create, perhaps.
Also, there’s apparently a Css Skill Tree, let’s see.
-----
Level 100: [God Killer: Lv1 (SSS)] [Cost]: [2000 Skill Points]
Level 200: [Divine Css Absorption: Lv1 (SSS)] [3000 Skill Points]
Level 300: [Divine Soul Parasite: Lv1 (SSS)] [5000 Skill Points]
Level 400: [Undead God Summon: Lv1 (SSS)] [6000 Skill Points]
Level 500: [Locked]
Level 600: [Locked]
Level 700: [Locked]
Level 800: [Locked]
Level 900: [Locked]
-----
Four Skills avaible. God Killer most likely increases damage dealt against Gods. Divine Css Absorption could let me steal the csses of foes that have divinity or divine csses reted to Gods. Divine Soul Parasite might allow the creation of a parasite made of divinity, or perhaps parasitize divinity-holders. And stly, Undead God Summon could let me summon Undead from the Gods I kill or devour.
Apparently, there are nine Skills in total, eaew one be learned with a certain level requirement! As of now, I learn four new Skills. However, there is a catch: I ’t learn them all. Right now, I have less than four thousand Skill Points. Meaning that through normal means, I ’t obtaiher Skills.
For now, I will pick the obvious one because I easily predict they will e for my head.
Ding!
[You have exged 3000 Skill Points, and you learhe [Divine Css Absorption: Lv1 (SSS)] Css Skill!]
[You ow absorb and assimite the Divine Csses reted to Gods of the foes you sy, including the possible Skills that be learned and part of their own Skill Points.]
[The Divine Csses you steal will be either assimited into your current Css to upgrade your Stats aing Abilities or be grao another person after modification using your own Divinity.]
“Good! With this, I could give my sister and my mother very strong csses.” I smiled. “A good harvest.”
And I even steal my foe's Skill Points once I kill them, eveer. I suppose this was how it was inteo earn more Skill Points for these ridiculous Skills, isn’t it?
A Css specifically made to kill the Gods.
…
Once my family woke up and we had a hearty and rexing breakfast inside my Inner Realm, we decided to finally walk bato the city. The pce had calmed down, although there were still many people around the destroyed church. Mostly workers up the rubble. We noticed a few nobles walking around; apparently, they were looking for the culprit behind this. Apparently, they were with church members as well.
“You go to the Adventurer Guild. I will resolve the entire problem with the church for now.” I told my mother and my sister to cover them with stealth veils that would allow them to be unreizable to those pursuing them by any ce.
“Are you sure, Katherine? What if…” My mother was worried.
“What if what? I won’t lose. Don’t worry. I will follow your words and not be as aggressive, mother.” I smiled at her.
“You got this big sis!” Ruby was already looking forward to what I would do.
Thanks to my Veil Skill and the {Umbral Night Stealth Art} which I had stolen from the {Venerable Of Night and Nightmares}, I was able to easily camoufge them amongst the crowd. As they moved to the adventurer guild, I quickly set my gaze toward the groups of church members.
Around the ey, there were roughly five mroups. Eae was made up of five padins and two priests. They were stantly looking for me, asking random people ireets too. There were nobles as well, and their guards. However, they were not helping them but simply watg over them with suspicious expressions on their faces.
I tell that the Lord of Nexus City does not like the church that much.
“I am here if that’s what you are looking for.” I stepped forward, standing in front of the group of two priests, and gave padins, their eyes widening.
“Y-You!”
“It’s her, right?!”
“Foolish woman! Do you truly believe you’ll be spared if you appear before us so recklessly?!”
“I’ll kill yht now, sinner!”
There was little room for versation with these fanatics.
“I nning on holding a versation. But if you greet me with bloodshed, I will also greet you back with more bloodshed.”
I uhed my sword, and with a single ale swing, a wave of darkness and light was unleashed. The padins were cut down into shreds, and the priests died in the resulting explosion. It was like crushing ants; there was her fun ement in this. Yet, it didn’t make me feel bad either.
Ding!
[You have sin [Priests of the Church of Light: Lv150+] x2 and [Padins of the Church of Light: LV180+] x5!]
[Level Up!]
[Your Level has increased from Level 403 to Level 404!]
[All your Stats have increased. You gained Bonus Stat Points and Skill Points.]
[The Tod {The Brilliant Mother Of Light} groans in frustration!]
“Well, that’s that.” I yawned. “Oh, sorry for making a se. I’ll the pce for you.” I noticed several people were watg in utter horror as I waved my hand, and all the corpses disappeared.
“W-What is she?!”
“She’s a monster…”
“I’ve never seen someone kill those high-level NPCs so seamlessly!”
“R-Run…! RUN!”
A lot of the low-level pyers ran away, followed by the rest of the popution. And right after, the rest of the church members appeared, led by a blonde woman wearing saintly white clothes.
“T-There she is! The sinner! Attack her!” She anded, waviaff. Rays of light rushed towards me, attempting to restrain me.
“Yht is nothing against me; I’ve already told you people.”
With a simple thought, an overwhelming Primordial I Aura surged from my body, like an endless eruption of golden essehe church members fell to their knees before they could even touch me. The woman trembled in pain, vomiting blood, as she grabbed a golden relic.
“Y-You damned monster! As the Saintess of the Church of Light, I will not go down! I will avenge my fallen rades! RAAAH!”
She activated the eye-shaped relic as it suddenly fused into her chest. Her entire body transformed as she started to bee incredibly monstrous. Gaining a pair of angeligs, long and nky arms and legs, and a face with a single mouth and no eyes.
[Saintess of Light: Raffilia: Lv300] has utilized the [Forbidden Divine Religelicus (SSS Grade)]!]
[Due to her strong faith and belief, she has been grahe wish to obtain a body that could match your power, evolving into the [Fallen Angel Of Despair: Rafflesia: Lv600+]!]
“SINNER!”
And they keep pulling out tricks from their asses; these people are truly resourceful.
“Sadly, that body of yours atch my power either way.”
