Apollo glanced at the scenery in front of his eyes. A clear blue sky, vast and green plains that go far through, almost endlessly.

Several temples were made out of white stone, olive trees, and several other plantations. Giant mountains filled with resources and a large forest of special trees that produced a yellow fruit that possessed Thunder Attribute Mana.

"This place is my 'father's' Divine Realm… Why am I here? What had happened to me?" thought Apollo.

As Apollo tried to glance around his surroundings, a slight pain blossomed inside of its Divine Soul.

"Ugh… What… My soul was damaged?"

However, before Apollo could check his Divine Soul completely, a zap of lightning appeared from within the clear sky, as it molded itself in the figure of a large and burly man, with white hair and a long beard, his eyes were golden colored.

"My son, you're awake," it said, it was Zeus, the God of Thunder and Father of Apollo.

Zeus' expression was that of contempt, he seemed mildly worried about Apollo. However, Apollo knew how easily Zeus could fake emotions, so he remained wary of what his old man was planning.

"Father, why am I here? Has something happened to me? I can't remember" said Apollo.

"My son… you lost the memories of what happened?" asked Zeus, glaring at Apollo from above… he seemed strangely wary of his own son. He was even holding a solidified ray of lightning on his left hand, something that Zeus had never done while talking with Apollo.

"Of what happened? But what exactly happened? My soul… is damaged but I can't remember what caused that… I even feel like a lost an amount of Divine Energy…" muttered Apollo, he was genuinely confused and a little bit afraid.

"Hmph, just as Flufuns said, the trauma of having a piece of your Soul taken was too much. The Pain you suffered even made you fall unconscious, and shout in pain" said Zeus.

"W-What?!"

"Son. Don't you remember anything before that? Before falling unconscious?" asked Zeus.

Apollo glanced at the white stone floor in the middle of the palace where he was resting, his aquamarine eyes gleaming in a strange light…

"I do remember being in the Constellation Pantheon Meeting held by Jupiter-sama… and then… when we were gathering to decide who to bless… I think… UGH!"

Before Apollo could look more into his own memories, a sharp pain crossed his Divine Soul once again.

"Even if you try to remember the pain comes back…? Well, we'll tell you what your sister, Athena, figured what had happened" said Zeus, as he explained Apollo about Kireina attacking him when he tried to retrieve Evan's Blessing.

"W-What?! That's impossible, father! How could a mortal do such a thing?! It cannot be…! That 'monster' had already grown into something that can damage Gods?!" shouted Apollo, finally realizing what had truly happened to him, although he couldn't remember it, he accepted his father's words as the truth.

"Yes… the 'monster' is something beyond our comprehension… I can't understand the rest of the god's negligence in the subject, she should be eradicated at all costs… To think that even Supreme Gods think that she is just an Ant…" said Zeus, anger rushing through his mind as the veins on his forehead bulged with pumping blood.

Although Zeus was of the first generation of Gods that saw Genesis split into Realms, he was always an immature man without real values. He lacked discipline and tactfulness and was a lustful man that only cared about life's pleasures.

Due to this, he involved himself too much with mortals, and this did not change even after thousands of years, he was one of the few exceptions within the first generation Gods who usually were more reserved and did not care about Mortals to the point of doing justice by themselves.

Most Gods had already figured out that over-involvement with mortals would only lead to pain and suffering, but because Zeus thrived on mortal's desires, he would never understand this.

And most of his sons, who were of the second generation, grew spoiled and as ignorant as him… all of them held grudges in a mortal, something that would be often ridiculed by Gods.

Why would someone hold grudges against an ant that killed a few other ants that you took a liking of? Only the foolish that gives them enough value… although Zeus does not value mortals as equals, he values them as 'something that brings him pleasure', his children may value them a little bit differently, but all of them get pleasure from mortals in a way or another, even if it's not sexual.

One could get a sensation of fulfillment when your Hero wins a war, or when your Hero becomes more intelligent or a talented Alchemist or Librarian… When their Hero does great achievements, such Gods would often see themselves in them, and feel pleasure.

Apollo thought similar to his father and had expected great things from his Champion Evan… and Kireina. He was a fool that liked 'interesting' mortals and would often bless them without deeply analyzing their personalities of faith.

Now his own irresponsibility and stupidity bite him from behind… and he was utterly disappointed in what Evan had become and in what Kireina truly was. He felt embarrassment over the one he blessed, Kireina, who had killed and eaten many blessed Champions of his close colleagues.

Just like his father, he desired Kireina to pay for what she had done… And even more now that he got to know that she had directly attacked him!

This had deeply hurt Apollo's pride as a God of the Light Attribute such as himself.

How dare a mortal attack and actually damage a God? It was unthinkable on Apollo and Zeus heads up until recently, their grudges growing bigger as they thought about it.

"Those foolish and ignorant Gods, who are too lazy to do anything by themselves don't even care about Kireina's wrongdoings, and think of it as nothing in 'the great scheme of things'… However, your sister is not a fool, and with her influence and words, she had gathered several gods like ourselves, who desire to take justice by our own hands!" said Zeus, proudly as he finally lowered his guard, the solidified thunder that he was holding on his hand disappeared.

Even Apollo couldn't help but agree with his father, one of the individuals that he perhaps most detested in his life, but it seems like Kireina had gained that spot now.

"Indeed… I can't believe how those Gods think that the 'monster' isn't a problem at all! Those fools, and perhaps even Jupiter and the Supreme God will thank us deeply when we finally slay the demon!" said Apollo, as his body shined in bright yellow light, filling him with energy and determination.

As father and son seemed to have reconciled, for the time being, they moved towards Athena's Divine Realm and meet with the Goddess of Wisdom, she was being surrounded by several other Gods and Demigods, alongside some of their Living Deity servants.

"You're finally awake, big brother. I suppose that father had already explained to you most things?" she said.

"That's right. Athena, I shall lend you a hand as well"

"That's a good answer," said Athena, as she invited Apollo and her father into their meeting, none of the Gods in here had realized that Apollo, although very slightly, had changed.

Athena and the other gods revealed all of their secrets to their trusted Apollo as his aquamarine eyes gleamed in a strange dark light, however, such thing was undetectable by the gods, whose entire bodies were covered in their own lights of divinity.

Inside Apollo's soul, a certain area had a will of its own, separated from Apollo's real thoughts. Slowly, this piece of his soul devoured itself… while spreading its eerie essence.

Kireina only needed to wait to see results now.

As Seishin began to get used to her new body while practicing things such as shapeshifting and her new Magic Attributes, Amiphossia and I glanced at the quivering Nine-Tailed, four meters tall Phantom Fox, Sesshomaru.

Sesshomaru was one of the newest additions to Amiphossia's team. He was one a Nine-Tailed Phantom Fox Chief and commanded a large group of hundreds of Phantom Foxes in the Forsaken Labyrinth lower floors, which were ultimately defeated and eaten. He proved to be quite resilient, and Amiphossia took a liking to him, so she 'adopted' him.

Much like Seishin, Sesshomaru is a specialist in the Phantom Attribute, and most of its attacks use this element. It's magic and its movements alongside its Skills. He can easily turn himself into a phantom and shapeshift his body parts, usually to become larger and have a greater bite or slashing power with its claws.

It had recently learned to use Moonlight Magic, a derivation of the Light Attribute, but it still has a long way to go to develop it fully, as it barely has learned some spells. Certainly, having a humanoid body with a better-developed brain may let him learn spells quicker and also chant them faster.

Sesshomaru was slightly smaller than Seishin but was just as fearful… perhaps even more.

His entire body quivered as we held him tightly. Amiphossia with her large arms while I used my Aura, shaped as giant hands.

"Awoo…!"

"Sesshomaru, be strong~! It's not so bad, you know. I'm even starting to like this!" said Seishin, she had quickly adapted to her new body and even liked the skillfulness of a humanoid body and her new six hands, now she will be even able to wield multiple weapons.

"That's right, relax, dumb fox!" said Geraldine, mocking Sesshomaru's pride.

"Common, Sesshomaru, don't be so fearful! Fufufu, you will love this new power!" shouted Shirohibe, almost fanatically.

However, Sesshomaru wasn't convinced at all by them… the two women were crazy, and his former male friend had turned into a sexy woman all out of a sudden, and was just fine with that?! 

I can understand his troubles… but I'm just here to do some experiments… it's not like I take some pleasure in changing other people's genders or doing weird things!

Well, perhaps Seishin hasn't developed its sexual life and that's why it didn't really care about that, but Sesshomaru was the father of countless foxes and had several partners, as I remember.

I bet he loved his male pride over everything and used to be the alpha.

Even after having its family slaughtered and eaten, he was enslaved and given a new chance in life, and slowly fell in love with my Amiphossia, mostly due to her Charm Skill. He wasn't as prideful as before, but still held immense pride, and liked to teach Seishin about masculinity and 'how to be the alpha in a relationship', as Amiphossia had told me before, though they only talked with growls and barks.

But now Sesshomaru was about to change a lot… fufufu.

"Awooo…!!!"

Holding tightly on the Phantom Fox, we began to select the needed materials, just as Seishin, a dozen corpses from healthy-looking humans were selected.

We also added the body parts of the Twelve-Tailed Phantom Fox Chief, an evolved form of Sesshomaru's species.

I also added the flesh, blood, fur, claws, and fangs of Phantasmal Crimson Foxes that had begun to appear in the Forsaken Labyrinth due to its additions in Monster Affinity.

I decided to add my own Tails, created by the [Calamity Abyss Demon Phantasmagoric Living Chimera Tails] Skills, which I cut off quickly and synthesized them into Sesshomaru's back. The generated countless black fox-like tails, alongside some that had needles filled with poison and others that had the heads of snakes or dragons.

"Awooo…"

I added my Orbs, which I took a dozen off my body and a few hundred Phantasmal Mana Stones and Minerals. Like Seishin, Sesshomaru was too big to resemble a ball of flesh and materials put together, but he seemed to have been covered in colorful and strange clothes.

After adding the last touch in my own Slime Clones and other types of Slimes of different Attributes in the hopes of him learning them, it was done.

"Its time!" said Amiphossia.

"Alright, Sesshomaru, bear with the pain a little bit!" I said, as I glanced at Sesshomaru's troubled eyes, his 'alpha' pride was being completely torn apart as he began to glow in a bright and eerie light, which covered its entire body and changed its shape drastically.

Activating the Skills and Spells necessary to force the evolution, he began to evolve straight away.

Like Seishin, Sesshomaru demi-human body was in the 'giant' side, reaching almost four meters.

"Awoo…! Aawwoo… Aaah… Uwah…! Nooo…! I don't want to become a woman…!"

Sesshomaru's first words were muttered from within the voice of a young and charming lady…

"Oh, she's so cute!" said Amiphossia, as she glanced at Sesshomaru's new appearance.

"C-Cute…?!"
