[Special Evolution has been unlocked. Do you wish to evolve? This might take several seconds if not minutes.]

[Yes] [No]

She immediately gave a mental command, pressing "yes". Her entire body started to transform right away. All the materials required were immediately fused into her body, as a giant black cocoon appeared within her World Realm. Indeed. Her plan was simple. She was going to sacrifice her body to be destroyed by Shub-Niggurath and then evolve inside of her World Realm and use the Evolution\'s power to just grow a new body.

But even with all her calculations, this would barely buy her a couple of seconds, if not less than ten. Shub-Niggurath\'s tentacles opened giant jaws with sharp white teeth, tearing Kireina\'s body piece by piece at an incredible speed, and eating her down. The Outer Goddess nourishing herself with Kireina\'s blood and flesh.

No matter how hard she tried, she couldn\'t move an inch. And Shub-Niggurath\'s tentacles already were moving towards her family, which she easily reached by ignoring her Domain entirely. They were also stopped in time.

Kireina forcefully moved her body, spending all her Mana and Cosmic Energy. Her Origin shook in agony as she tore apart her own body, her skin and muscles left behind in the stopped time space while she constantly regrew new flesh that was stuck in time, constantly "moving" this way was extremely agonizing, perhaps even more because her Soul was also affected too.

"Your struggle is futile! See as I devour your family, just as you ate my child!" Shub-Niggurath laughed, her black tentacles morphing into black spears, about to pierce the head of Agatheina, Alice, and Alucard who were the closest to her.

Their immobile bodies remained still, incapable of fighting back against the power of Time Manipulation. Kireina noticed Agatheina and Alice\'s faces, small tears streaming from them as their gazes were directed at her.

The black cocoon inside her World Realm had just been formed, the new body inside was forming, resembling a slime that started to harness all the materials within, transforming and evolving into something completely new.

If only Kireina had time, more time! She needed time! Her processing speed flashed; she thought about what she could do. Skills didn\'t work, Ego Weapons were stopped in time too. Her Chaos was slowly trying to fight back, trying to corrode space, but it wasn\'t working because Shub-Niggurath was also using Chaos Powers herself, and they seemed stronger than Kireina\'s.

"Come on…!"

"Think! What else can I use! What can I do!"

"What can I…!"

When Kireina found herself completely lost, the spears already touching her wives and child\'s forehead as small amounts of blood started falling from the tiny wounds that began to grow increasingly larger, Kireina\'s will flared.

She wanted to defy this fate. She wanted to breakthrough it, she wanted to overcome it. But no matter what, nothing would work, not even the power of Mandala.

Except something she had forgotten, the very power even these incredibly strong beings recognized.

"[Defiance]!"

FLAAASH!

With a loud scream, her Origin flashed with a bright golden and crimson light. Her Trait of Defiance released a shockwave of energy, the Time Stop Bubble swiftly shook, time itself regained some sort of speed, it was incredibly slow, but it was no longer just stopped.

"You channeled the power of your Trait?"

Shub-Niggurath noticed in a split of a second. Kireina wasn\'t strong enough to consciously utilize her Trait\'s powers yet. She could only use them unconsciously as she fought and moved. An aura covering her. But she had made sure that her Time Stopping Bubble would stop Defiance from fighting back!

Yet… Kireina did the impossible, controlling the uncontrollable force of a Trait for a split of a second, enough time was bought, her Bubble shook once more, another shockwave came from Kireina\'s body.

"RAAAH!"

With her monstrous body, Kireina kicked Shub-Niggurath\'s utterly titanic body, a dimension-shattering strike shook the entire wormhole. The Outer Gods seeing immediately flew to act as well, attacking Kireina. Bombarding her with their powerful beams or making their tendrils grow closer to tear her to shreds.

"You dare…?!"

Shub-Niggurath still held power over the Domain, tightening it around Kireina as she approached her tentacles towards the slow-moving monstrous fairy. Smiles surging in her countless jaws as she was about to impale her family to death.

"For such insolence, I\'ll make you see them die first, you pathetic ant."

With a ruthless voice, Shub-Niggurath once more aimed at Kireina\'s family… Only that this time, they were gone! The Outer Goddess eyes widened. She just managed to notice right in this instant that someone else, an external force, had manipulated space and brought these people away.

And the second after, she saw a rain of gigantic, bright stars falling into the Bubble, hitting it constantly. Cracks appearing over it as the stars exploded, leaving behind cosmic dust that corroded time and space magic.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

"W-What the?! Who dares interrupt my meal?!"

Shub-Niggurath watched in utter wrath as she noticed two figures looming above her. Two Supreme Gods that she had not seen before. Two people that had fought against an Outer God and held him off for a while, who had been left behind back in the Spiritual Plane. But that were swiftly absorbed into the wormhole just a minute later than the rest.

"Looks like we barely made it." Lucifer said, Kireina\'s family was right at her side, protected by a Dimensional Cube.

"Now we\'re fighting even more Outer Gods? This truly never ends…" Laughed Aura, slightly discouraged as his Aura of Nebulas expanded stars endlessly falling over Shub-Niggurath\'s Time Stop Bubble.

"You guys…!" Kireina\'s eyes looked above too, noticing it was the two of them!

However, something was different about them this time around. They were overflowing with a power far surpassing their former Supreme God status.

Now that they were no longer on Genesis, and that they had absorbed a lot of the Cosmic Power of the Outer God they fought against.

There was nothing stopping them from advancing further.

"Weren\'t you two Supreme Gods?!" Shub-Niggurath roared. "Why…?! Why are you… Peak World Devourer Realm already?!"

"Well, when you live for dozens of millions of years, you accumulate so much Elemental Particles that rising the ranks becomes a breeze." Aura smiled.

"Merely channeling a bit of the power of my True Body did the trick." Lucifer laughed.

With the time they bought, Kireina\'s new evolution was already halfway done!
