After cutting off a part of her own consciousness and leaving it in another world, Veronica's main consciousness awakened within Kritias, as the shadows that shrouded her body dissipated, and new changes within her soul and armor body happened.

​​

Her already powerful soul lost a piece of it, but still, the amount of power she got through this evolution compensated for this greatly.

Veronica's soul began to surge like an endless sea of shadows, covering her entire room until it began to slowly settle down within her soul.

As Veronica opened her phantasmal eyes, she glanced at her armor, which she had previously shaped into a dress to sleep more comfortably.

However, it was now back to an armor shape, gaining new features and appearances.

Her armor became completely black, with crimson decorations all around, resembling bloody full and half-moons.

Her helmet still held its skull appearance, but now a large crown made of purple metal appeared, resembling the one that Nyx was wearing when she met her.

As she glanced at her soul, Veronica noticed as many specks as possible of light emerged one after another…

It was as if her completely abyssal soul was slowly shaping itself to resemble the night, filled with beautiful stars.

Veronica tried to approach such stars, realizing that they were like another aspect of her soul itself and not a separate object.

Of course, they were not gigantic spheres of burning plasma and resembled just what she saw them as, specks of light.

The lights illuminated the eternal night of her soul, bringing in a mystical sight.

"My lady, once more you were out for a few seconds…" said Ozgeth.

"I… was?" asked Veronica.

"Yeah, this already happened before when you told us about Hades… Hm? Wait for a second, your soul…" muttered Shade.

Shade and Ozgeth then glanced at Veronica's soul once more, noticing the several specks of light.

"Beautiful, my lady's soul is like an eternal night," said Ozgeth.

"I am impressed… What are these changes?" asked Shade.

"My evolution… And well, I actually met Nyx… Oh! And I even left a little gift there…" laughed Veronica.

Ding!

[Nyx's Divine Protection]

The Divine Protection of Nyx, the Goddess of Night and it is personification from another World.

Increases all stats growth, while enhancing any light attribute-related Skill.

"Amazing, I even got Nyx's Divine Protection! And my stats increased all around, although that Soul Clone I created lowered my stats by a bit, when I evolved I gained even more, so I guess it balances out," said Veronica.

"Soul… Clone?" asked Ozgeth.

"Veronica, WHAT DID YOU DO NOW?!" asked Shade in concern.

"Hahaha… I just did what Kireina did! I just cut off a large chunk of my soul and sent it to that world, so I can get to know it better… Although we are no longer completely connected, I think she can send me info from time to time…" said Veronica.

"That's… Impressive, my lady!" said Ozgeth.

"No! That's insane! Kireina is a completely different being than you, Veronica! How could you try to do something so dangerous?!" asked Shade.

"It was dangerous, but I managed to get it through, so relax for a bit, will you? I'm doing this partially because if I am capable of befriending any of the Gods or people there, we might end up getting more allies," said Veronica.

"But allies from another world?! I-isn't that a bit of a stretch…?!" asked Shade.

"And what is Kireina? She also is from another world!" said Veronica.

"Shade, don't be so disrespectful with our lady, her plans are excellent," said Ozgeth.

"What?! I… Ugh, fine… I am just worried… What if your soul had been too damaged?" asked Shade.

"It was a risk worth taking. Actually, my soul was left very weakened, but the evolution triggered right after, so I recovered most of the damage," said Veronica.

"Then I am right! It was dangerous!" said Shade.

"Yeah, but everything went fine at the end, now, I can finally put my plan in motion!" said Veronica.

"Plan… What plan?" asked Shade.

"Fufu… It would be better to talk it with Ervas in here, so maybe tomorrow morning!" said Veronica.

"I am excited about what amazing plan my lady has set in motion," said Ozgeth.

"…Just tell me already," said Shade.

"Sheesh, alright. I will simply try to befriend the Gods there, it seems that there are also enemies they want to get rid of, so I could get some powers from that. Also, my Soul Clone will send me Source Energy from that world… And through the Samsara System, I can process that energy and make it my own power! Meaning… Mana! And more EXP too!" said Veronica.

"…What?!" asked Shade.

"Impressive! Even more power for my lady!" said Ozgeth.

Ding!
