After what happened with Ruby was assessed with everyone in my crew, including my family, I quickly began to devise strategies and a set of plans we have to do now. I had thought about some sort of way to create a protector for Ruby. I remember leaving a slime with her at all times, but he ended staying here when she teleported away. Is there a way for me to teleport her something? or maybe teleport directly to her? I wondered that as I asked the system.
[Calculating…]
[All possibilities within your current capabilities had been calculated, there is currently no available option to teleport directly towards Ruby]
Damn it… Is there a way to send her a Spirit or a Slime?
[Calculating…]
[There is a way, by purchasing the [Slime Tamer (B)] Divine Ability for 200000 Divine Power, you might attain the power to do a variety of things involving slimes and only slimes, one of them is sending them towards a target whom you share a powerful magical and divine bond, although limitedly so]
Can I turn myself into a slime and go directly towards her?!
[No, it had already been calculated and that's impossible. Fuyu could, but that would be meaningless as she doesn't have enough power nor the ability to bring you with her as it would only be possible for her slime form]
Right… Is there not a Dragon Tamer that can do the same?
[No… I had already calculated it host, there's no other possibilities, please stop asking]
Okay, okay, don't get angry…
[I am not angry, host. I am merely stating a fact. Emotions are unsuitable for a system such as myself]
Yeah, right. You sound pretty angered right now.
[I am not angered…]
Okay, I'll stop, I don't want to anger you more.

And Slime Tamer, huh? That certainly gives me a few ideas, but teleporting a Slime there will easily get detected by the people watching over Ruby, so that might wait for later, whenever we are already getting closer to perhaps help Ruby escape by herself.
Also I don't want to spend any more Divine Power for now, as I want to use it to enhance my own Divinity and power, I can use 500000 to jump to the next Stage of my Realm, so I cannot waste it anymore.
"So what should we do now?" Asked Benladann. "Prioritizing Ruby's rescue seems like a must, but are we even ready to fight someone at Rank 8? Isn't it just hopeless even with your current state of power?"
"Yes, it is incredibly hopeless, we need some power leveling before even daring to do so, but I believe there's a way to get there, or at leas to get enough power so we can grab Ruby and escape." I said. Of course, I had said that to Ruby with a lot of courage but deep down I don't feel so confident. If I cannot really attain enough power, the best we can do is rescue her and storm the place, as long as we are all mortals, the gods cannot properly intervene, this is a trump card I must use well.
"So we are not going to kill her then?" Wondered Rakasha. "I can't blame you, seems too hard for now… Unless you were to call your father and your mother…"
"Yeah, I had considered it and asked them, both are in different continents, and nobody has teleportation magic, they'll have to come by flight and that'll take them at least a few weeks, and because their presences are too strong, they will ultimately bring unwanted attention… I don't want to risk their lives." I sighed. "Sorry."
"No, it is fine," Said Rakasha. "I would never force you."
"Anyways, if I think I can defeat them, I won't hesitate, but as of now, the best we can do is the hit and run tactic, grab the girl, and probably absorb some divinity if possible, and then get out of there… But before that, we'll go prepare and grow a bit stronger, I hope… It is mostly so we can get the inheritance of the Frost Queen all while seeing if I can make her into my side… Whenever [Fate] truly breaks and the Venerables revive, if we got many Venerables at our side, our chances of survival will increase exponentially… I am sure that if I tell her about the vampires she might agree, she hated them." I said while laughing a bit.
"If we get the Venerable by our side, that would be amazing! Although I doubt she can do much right now until Fate breaks." Said Tisha. "That woman was a righteous warrioress… She's admired even by our tribe of elves."
"She's the one that saved the world from the Vampires after all, her might will be of great use!" Said Pekora. "But we better prepare for the worst too, that inheritance… if people hasn't been able to clear it for thousands of years, I doubt it is anything too easy for us!"
"Yeah, I could assume…" I sighed. "Nonetheless, we got a month to do this, so we'll have to hurry. We'll spend a week inside the divine realm to assess everything one last time, remember that time here goes faster than the outside world. I want to assess the last things, train my family, and so on. You all should do the same."
"Alright… But what about afterwards?" Wondered Miranda.
"Well, after that, we'll reach Heaven Port, probably look around for half a day and then go investigate the Frost Tower where the Venerable left the inheritance. I also learned that the inheritance of the demon of dungeons is there, so I could get his power a second time too. Lastly, we'll investigate the surroundings and slowly reach the Fiefdom of the Vampires."
Thanks to the power of the Unique Skill [God] I can actually mask my powers. Because my divinity is tied to this Unique Skill, I can actually pretend to be a mortal without leaking any sort of divine power, this makes it so gods… will most likely ignore me. I can use this to infilter the Vampire's town. Red wont be able to harm me as long as I am a mortal.
