[All of your Stats have increased!]

[You earned Bonus Stat Points and Skill Points.]

[Several Skills have Leveled Up!]

Just as Kireina felt the boost to her stats that leveling up brought to her, which should had made her feel happier the stronger she got before fighting the Demon King, something completely unexpected happened.

The reason behind why the Demon King was buying so much time became much clearer now to Kireina and all her companions. Using his powers, the Cosmic Shards, and also his new alliance with a certain Huge Arachnid Monster, he managed to bring forth a completely insane outcome!

The skies started shattering apart, as huge cracks leading to different worlds opened… Such worlds were Genesis, alongside the other Planes such as the Necrotic Plane, the Spiritual Plane, the Chaotic Plane, and the Dream Plane!

All four Pseudo Dimensions, which connected many universes, worlds, and dimensions together all opened themselves before Grand Terra, alongside Genesis. Why? Why was this happening? Did they want her to go back to Genesis?

But didn't they tried to kill her back then? What was that huge spider planning now? And since when did she had such powerful abilities?

Kireina, in all her strength and powers, could only figure out a few things at most. Using her Cosmic Eyes combined with the Universal Essence of the Maxima Universe, and the memories of its Ruler, she knew that he had been cooperating with the Necrotic Ruler because of a single group of mysterious beings.

The Usurpers of Destiny.

This group of mysterious beings seemed to expand across who knows how many worlds, perhaps. And they held a tremendous authority over almost anything. Their primary desire was to obtain Grand Terra and Genesis because both of these worlds were Fragments of the Origin World.

The Demon King and the Spider Empress were most likely cooperating with them, and now, the next stage of whatever crazy plan they had has finally begun…

"Why are you doing this?! What's the reason behind this?! You're opening Genesis gates?! Didn't you killed me back then, you want me back in Genesis to just ruin all your plans again?" Kireina provoked the Spider Empress.

"This doesn't have anything to do with you coming back or not!" Laughed the Spider Empress. "In fact, your existence in here proves that what the Usurpers of Destiny said was the truth! You're a crucial ingredient to the next stage of their plan!"

"Plan?!" Kireina asked. "What Plan is this?!" Her powers continued expanding endlessly across the entire surroundings, generating distortions in space itself. "SPEAK!"

"Let me rephrase what I said. Your Unique Trait, [Defiance] is the special ingredient~" Laughed the Spider Empress. "And my name is Arachneia, Kireina! Make sure to remember it well! Hahahaha!"

FLAAAASH!

Before Kireina's powers could reach her, Arachneia quickly disappeared between the layers of space, leaving behind the ever-expanding cracks and portals opening to the other planes and Genesis.

"She's gone?!" Elfina panicked. "Is she someone you know, Kireina?"

"Yes, she's one tough cockroach." Kireina sighed. "But we can't waste anymore time. I can feel that the powers of the Demon King are the ones producing these portals, if we defeat him maybe we can-"

"WAY AHEAD OF YOU!"

Suddenly, the Demon King's voice echoed within his Demon Castle, as the entire surroundings trembled, and the huge Castle floated in midair!

A tremendous Chaotic and Cosmic Power lifted the entire structure in midair, and then with tremendous speed, it started flying all the way into the skies!

"W-What the?! He's running away?!" Luminous roared with fury.

"This is bad! They must be planning something that we cannot fully comprehend yet." Ervas panicked for the first time. "The Usurpers of Destiny… Just what is their real goal?! Why are they going so far with all of this? And why… is Kireina an "ingredient" to such an event?"

"This is just an hypothesis, but it might be related to her ability to defy destiny itself! Kireina's Trait allows her to defy destiny and warp reality itself to her advantage to an extent, making simply impossible things… possible." Frank said. "Could it be that they want her to somehow warp reality to bring forth their plan? Her powers alone could do that even if she didn't intend to!"

"My dear Kireina! Why are you still sitting there?! Catch me if you can! Bwahahahahaha!" The laughter of the Demon King echoed. "Don't worry! I'LL LEAVE A NICE GIFT BEHIND TOO!"

The power of the castle flying into the skies generated a huge tremor in the Demon Territory, creating huge cracks filled wit deadly miasma, as monstrous creatures kept surging from within, attacking the demon civilians.

"ROOOAARR!"

"GRUOOOHHH!"

"SHAAAH!"

"W-What is happening?!"

"The Demon King's Castle is flying into the skies?!"

"M-Monsters! RUN!"

"H-He's running away… Our King has betrayed us?!"

"HEEELP!"

Everyone felt shocked as they saw the entire Demon Territory being overrun by monsters, innocent lives were being constantly massacred! However, Kireina somehow felt paralyzed.

She didn't knew what to do. She wanted to protect Grand Terra, but Genesis was also in great danger! Both places at the same time.

And if she went to Genesis, she would have to leave behind all her friends she made here… without even a proper goodbye.

"What do I even do?!" She thought. "Umbra…!"

"MOM!" Amiphossia cried.

"Snap out of it!" Ryo roared.

Her two children quickly shook her body, making Kireina's eyes open wide, as she snapped out of the daze she felt… She was actually experiencing fear. Fear of the unknown danger, fear of whatever these incomprehensible beings beyond her universe were planning.

And fear of being used, and manipulated without realizing it, as their puppet for their devious, malicious plans…
