After giving all the food they had to Anastacia and Juliette, Ervas and Veronica finally decided to leave them on the planet.

These two clones packed up a lot of power, enough that even the two had lost some stats when they made them give them a solid amount of power, alongside having made their bodies using their fused flesh and also the excretions of Kelsus and Anir fragments, which also included the Mirror Bodies they got from Mirror Kritias, so they were more than strong.

They also inherited most of their skills and were quite literally little versions of them, that could do many things… they could also control the transmigration cycle from that distance, create life, produce plants, raise undead, and more… but they were still rather weak, and only shared tiny fragments of the divinities they possessed.

As the split souls left the terraformed planet and resumed their cosmic travel back to Kritias, the two fusion clones glanced at the terraformed planet from the skies.

"Hm… These are going to feel like long vacations…" said Anastacia.

"Yeah…" said Juliette.

"Let's nap, for now, Ervas and Veronica were pretty tired, so we might as well rest for them," said Anastacia.

"You're right… Let's slack off," said Juliette.

The two sisters cuddled with each other while floating over the planet, and began to take a nap while floating, rotating around the planet… whenever they were to wake up, perhaps something interesting might be waiting for them to look at.

The split souls resumed their traveling through the cosmos atop Fafnir Zahhak's back, as they rushed through outer space, finally reaching the Spatial Area where Kritias was located after an hour.

Using Cosmic Breach from Fafnir Zahhak, and Kireina's Dimensional Travel ad Breaker of Boundaries, alongside Ervas Void Magic and Warp, they managed to get through the incredibly dense Spatial Walls that enclosed the world of Kritias from the true outer space, finally crossing into the smaller outer space within Kritias.

Kritias was not flat land, it was a spherical planet, and so was Mirror Kritias, around the same size as Earth, possessing various continents and a vast sea.

The outer space had stars, but they were not really true stars but manifestations of light the size of cars, they could even be qualified as Divine Materials and not the real stellar bodies and were created when the world came into existence, they were now held by the Goddess of Stars.

There was also the sun, which was similar to the stars, a large sphere of fire and magma, but not as immensely big as a real star from the outside space, it had around the same size as the moon, and flew fairly close to the planet, although it looked distant enough like the sun on earth's solar system…

This was another Divine Material, most likely, formed when the world came to be, probably made from the corpses of Anir and Kelsus, and it was by no means a real star, but it worked fairly similar to one, but instead of having a planet rotate around it, it rated around the planet.

There was also the single moon, which had a smaller size than the moon of Earth would have, although it was no less impressive, and seemed to not be empty inside, being rather solid.

The moon of mirror Kritias had fallen over the planet, so they didn't get a new moon, sadly… Although when it fell over Mirror Kritias it barely did much damage other than a big rumble, it wasn't as potent nor powerful as a real satellite either, but it was mostly a way to control the ocean waves.

This moon could also be said to be a Supreme Deity Realm Divine Material, although the split souls didn't have any idea on what they could use Divine Materials, nor they had plans to use the moon itself for anything.

However, when they hovered over the moon, they found out it had plants and even a very little atmosphere, the plants were rather strange and blue-colored, and there were even little critters resembling insects with very hard and chitinous carapaces.

When they used Wisdom to inspect them, they realized they were named Moon Scarabs and were off a whopping Rank 16! Each of these bugs had the power to destroy a nation…

And there were also another group of monsters named Moon Rabbits, who wielded large hammers made of the wood of these plants, and used them to hunt the bugs and other monsters… they seemed intelligent.

However, as they didn't want to bother these people and were in quite the hurry, the split souls rushed back to Kritias, reaching the continent of Anir's Hands, and flying towards the coast that connected to the Demon Sea that led to the Demon Continent, flying over it until they found Seashore, and descended slowly to not cause any shockwaves or something.

They glanced down below as the runes that produce an illusion for Selene were still there, it was as if the house never left.

It was around 2 PM, and the two split souls sighed in relief.

"Home sweet home," they said at the same time, flying to the surface and taking out the illusion magic coating that made them invisible to the naked eye.

Although they had been gone for so long for them, it was only a few hours in here…

They quickly took out the real Selene and positioned her in the same spot the illusion was, meticulously making it all seem as if they never left.

Selene, like the rest, had evolved and grown very strong through the time skip, so she had become something like a Haunted Ghost Demigoddess… her Rank had lost their usual numbers and became Demi-Deity of Rank 1/9, and her race name was Spectral Divine Pandemonium…

She had to suppress her divine aura from the rest of the town, which was made thanks to Ervas and Veronica's powerful runes, which suppressed her aura's essence from leaking from her body and soul.

Of course, Selene's appearance was that of a gigantic living city, so the one they left in Seashore was but a piece of her true body, which was gigantic after assimilating many houses and other buildings, alongside many divine materials.

As the split souls entered Selene, they sensed some people coming to their house through a

carriage…

They had just entered the house and there was already someone coming here to annoy them, couldn't they catch a break?

Actually, the carriage was way bigger… what was this all about?

And as they glanced through the windows, there were also… people wearing white armor?

They looked like… crusaders or something… like Paladins.

Ad they were holding a large flag, that was completely white, with an old and bearded man-made of bright yellow-gold light on it… with a bright sun behind him.

This ridiculous flag was the flag of the Empire of Bestellen!

"Why is the Empire of Bestellen here?!" asked Veronica.

"How odd… Have the aristocrats sold us after they realized that I was the same Ervas that the Empire of Bestellen is calling the Demon King?" asked Ervas.

"I told you we should have changed our identities!" said Veronica.

"But it is a pain to be addressed as someone else you know?" sighed Ervas.

Knock, knock!

Ervas and Veronica felt strong presences outside… these were no normal paladins.
