Artifacts and Items Ranks in Genesis were varied, but a big half of them were for mortals use, however, beyond Legendary Rank was Phantasmal Rank, and then Heavenly Rank, and after that… Divine Rank.

​​

Kireina remembered how these Ranks were organized, as a system window emerged showing her what she had learned from the memories of the various Gods she had eaten:

[Normal], [+], [++], [+++]

[Rare], [+], [++], [+++]

[Unique], [+], [++], [+++]

[Mythical], [+], [++], [+++]

[Legendary], [Lesser], [True]

[Phantasmal], [Lesser], [True], [Awakened]

[Heavenly], [Lesser], [True], [Awakened]

[Divine], [Demi], [True], [Great], [Supreme]

[Transcendental]

From Normal to Mythical, items were considered "Mortal-Realm" and had three Ranks in between, which were simply classified with "+".

However, from Legendary, it would then be classified as lesser and true, and from Phantasmal to Heavenly, from Lesser to Awakened…

Although Kireina had been fusing her Heavenly, Legendary, and Phantasmal Weapons in battle into the powerful Gungnir, which was a Skill, it had been shown already that the weapon was not strong enough to fight against a God, as it broke multiple times. Nonetheless, it was able to regenerate fairly quickly, and if she fused the Wyvern Overlord with it, Gungnir would become even stronger.

However, there were powerful Artifacts that Gods wielded, which Kireina could not retrieve as the Gods always saved them inside their Item Boxes…

And when anyone died, the items within their Item Boxes would disappear, turning into pure Primordial Energy and then being assimilated into the Origin Core…

Agatheina and some of the other Gods had only one, and only a few of them, these were Divine Rank Artifacts.

Divine Realm Artifacts were separated into four ranks, Demi, True, Great, and Supreme, and these Ranks were connected to the Gods Rank.

Meaning that a Goddess like her can craft up to True Rank Divine Artifacts, as she would need Great God Realm Divine Materials to even fathom to construct Great Rank Divine Artifacts!

Even with Hephaestus Divinity and Memories, she knew that she was not capable of doing this…

But now that she had Hephaestus Divinity and Memories, alongside his insight in creation coupled with her original powers, she knew she could be capable of crafting Divine Artifacts as well! At least of the True Rank.

But to carefully craft these True Rank Divine Realm Artifacts, she needed a ton of Divine Materials, more than what she could get through her Divine Realm or those of the other gods.

She was already planning on upgrading her Spears, Khaos, and Ginnungagap to Divine Rank as well, so she was doing that in the meantime, slowly gathering materials and setting up the formations needed for their upgrade.

Alongside this, she was using the help of everyone to craft Blueprints for new Mechs, which were like incredibly complex Artifacts, which could even have Ranks as well the same as other Artifacts.

All the previously made Mechs were only Phantasmal and Heavenly, and by pouring into them several Skills and her very soul pieces into them, they were able to exert a lot of power against the Gods, but after such a war, all mechs were destroyed…

Even Kireina recognized that Mechs gave her a substantial amount of power in the war against Thanatos, without them, many of her allies would have struggled a lot, and even she would not have been able to unleash as much power, even with her transformations.

So now, she was quite hungry for Divine Materials!

The World Dungeon within her Divine Realm did not give her new Attribute Particles, and the monsters and materials harvested there were also considered something like Pseudo Divine Materials, which could be used to fill up a little bit of the needed ingredients, but not everything.

When she heard that there was such a big treasure trove of actual Divine Materials that could be used with Attribute Particles and all of that, her eyes began to shine a bit.

"Kireina-sama… What… are you planning?" asked Smirkes with a trembling voice.

"Hmm… Before fighting those guys, which will most likely bring friends that I might not expect, it would be a nice idea to pick some of those treasures lying around," said Kireina.

"Treasures lying around?! Kireina-sama, that Divine Area is in the middle of the Three Dark Flames Territory…!" said Gravern.

"I know. It should not be too hard to go there, steal everything and then get out through teleportation… Of course, I am not stupid enough to fight them there, I will try to not fight and escape, I know that as you said, they are pretty strong and might have tons of trump cards behind their sleeves. I am currently crafting various things off-camera, so I wanted a new refill of Divine Materials…" said Kireina.

"Hmm. Certainly, those materials would be highly useful for us. Now that most Mechs which everyone worked so hard to produce are all broken apart, everyone is currently remaking them, although I have seen that they are still in the blueprint phase," said Agatheina.

Kireina raised her palm as she suddenly spent a tiny bit of Divine Energy and generate a complex magic technology battery.

"Through my new Abilities within my Path Jewels, I can create such technology instantaneously. However, this could only be considered to be Pseudo-Divine Materials, and what we are trying to craft are the actual real deals, which need tons of Divine Materials," said Kireina.

"I-I see… I have never seen such a thing," said Smirkes.

Even if Kireina were to upgrade her Path Jewels to Goddess Rank, the things she could create through them would not be true Divine Realm Artifacts, at most, they could be considered Chinese knock-offs…

However, by fusing them with the actual Divine Materials, proper blueprints, formations for their creation, and the use of her expertise alongside Hephaestus Divinity and Memories, she knew that she could skip a ton of steps and immediately craft them!

…Although it would be nice if Blaze and Lazuli could soon be reborn to help her with her Divine Flames.

Kireina often checked their eggs, and they seemed to be similar to Scarlet, and would probably be born as Living Deities.

However, probably a few more days would be needed to wait until then…

"Our force would increase a lot if we could craft True Rank Divine Realm Mechs… At least if we can craft one for each group, it would be more than enough… With that we could have yet another layer of protection and insurance, which was very useful against Thanatos, but not strong enough to fight against Kinesis when he acquired all those powers…" sighed Agatheina.

"Hm, if it wasn't because I used almost all of the power I got from the Origin Core Fragment to kill him… I do not know what would have happened. Although the abilities and divinities I gained from that fragment remain, I do not think I would be able to exert as much power as I did back then without proper preparation and more divine energy… Hm, this is becoming a management game now, how annoying… Well, it's not like I am nerfed or anything, I am sure that I can use the Path Jewel's abilities to fight back the Gods, but depending on their strengths and artifacts, they might be able to resist more than Kinesis did…" said Kireina.

"Seeing so many variables that could go wrong in a fight, it is completely understandable that you would want to prepare as much as you could, Kireina-sama. Although I am sure that you could be able to fight the Demigods and Low Ranked God Realms Entities, those above Rank 5 begin to get way too strong," said Agatheina.

"Well, I am sure that I can deal with Rank 9 ones even as I am now but… the amount of Divine Energy I would spend might be ludicrous. However, that is what happens when I get too strong, to exert my full strength I need more resources and power… Now I might even have the potential to fight a Great God… but will I be able to defeat it? Probably not, seeing how they are always with subordinates and are too strong to be defeated easily by some chomps… When I was a mortal I was more or less able to do everything I did due to the many preparations, the fusions we did, the mechs, and the many skills I constantly used. But in the end, I was still almost killed by Kinesis… That is an important lesson I cannot let go of, I have to overly prepare…" said Kireina.

"Sure thing! We'll help you prepare as much as you can, Masta!" said Rimuru.

"Yeah, leave it to us!" said Oga.

"It is hard to move from blacksmithing to Magic technology, but it seems that I can still apply such knowledge into this field, so I will keep improving on it with the help of Charlotte and Andromeda, alongside Lilith who is also trying to learn," said Brontes.

"I will also help with my knowledge about alchemy, which can also be applied in the construction of magic technology and the mechs we are planning to create, so leave such things to me! There are a lot of other girls who are learning with me, I think we could all reach Divine Science and Technology Ranks in our Subclass Fields soon enough," said Zehe.

"And we'll keep grinding Divine Beasts and Pseudo-Divine Materials from the Babel, I know they aren't the real deal, but they can still be used to fill up some ingredients," said Oga.

"I guess there is no way to change Kireina-sama's mind… But when are you planning to do such a thing? And wouldn't this enrage the Gods even more?" asked Gravern.

"Yeah, I know. But after doing that, I will teleport around the Lowe Realm and it will become pretty hard for them to reach where I am. I can do this every day until we manage to get enough power," said Kireina.

Kireina's plan was incredibly simple!

She would abuse her powerful and unique Spatial and Void Attribute Path Jewel and use Instant Teleport to move around the Realm and simply escape from the Gods!

She was going to run away in circles until she got enough strength and confidence that she would be able to deal with any threats that Gods might be saving for her.

"Alright, so our plan now is invading the Three Dark Flames Pantheon Divine Area, steal their riches, and run away… When are we doing that though?" asked Rimuru.

"Well, they planned the raid in a few days, perhaps two weeks in the outside world," said Smirkes.

"Maybe they are trying to prepare similarly to you, Kireina-sama," said Gravern.

"Two weeks? More than enough, in my Divine Realm the time goes incredibly slow. A day outside is like two weeks in here, so no worries, we have time to spare," said Kireina.

"EH?! T-that much time difference…" said Smirkes and Gravern at the same time.

"We will first raise everyone to Living Deity and maybe to Demigod by feeding them my Soul Fragments… After that, we will surprise them and raid them before they can raid us first… We'll pick up the loot and then run away," said Kireina nonchalantly.

Kireina was able to feed others her Divinity Fragments which would recover through Uroboros.

By doing this, they were able to accumulate enough energy to break through Ranks and beat Divine Trials to nourish themselves even more.

Kireina was able to give "false attribute particles" through her divinity fragments to those that ate them, and she thought that it should be at least possible to raise everyone to Demigod Rank at very least through this method, although they would not get all the complete power if they were to do this through real methods… But even then, most of them were already as strong as Gods while being mortals, so this was completely fine.

And even then, they were also gaining new Attribute Particles through Kireina's Dual Cultivation methods using the Chaotic Sin of Luxuria, a method that also boosted the power of all her wives.

Having said all of that, Kireina decided to go back to her Empire, as she was had decided to raise the next five in the line to Living Deities while using her True Body Clones to Dual Cultivate with the others for the rest of the day until it was to be dinner time.
