BXBX NOVEL Chapter 226: New Hestia!
"Punishment!" Aether shouted as purple energy sparked around him and went on to follow the mystic transparent veil.
The transparent veil now had purplish lines around it, making it appear as if veins were decorating it.
This upgraded veil then went on to cover the roots of the deva tree that was about to finish encompassing the entirety of Hestia.
Hestia by now looked like a ball of wood under the deva island. Chi, who was working his wonders inside the wooden cover, was also about to end everything, leaving only Mana, who had yet to do her work.
"And… done." Chi looked at the yellowish array that covered the countless miles of Hestia.
The residents inside looked up at the wooden cover that was now lit by the arrays, which acted like the sun.
They didn't, however, dwell over it too much and got back to working, knowing that it was something their lord was doing because of their connection to him.
And just when everybody was thinking that they were done, a small, tiny problem showed itself.
Who was going to power up all of this? Well, of course they were, but that meant that they had to continuously fuel up their work. This is why it counted as nothing but a small problem, but Mana had another plan.
"Let me!" She shouted.
*Fwsshhhh*
And from her bluish body, endless mana shot out towards the world, enriching the wooden cover, and in but a few minutes, the world of Hestia… completely disappeared.
"My, oh my, I guess my arrays finally worked." Chi, who had yet to channel energy to make his arrays work, looked at the disappearing world and stroked his beard in amazement.
"And that makes it." Draco spoke. Having watched everything from start to finish, he would be lying if he said he was disappointed.
This was good enough for him. The planet was now protected, invisible, had defensive and offensive capabilities, and could even work autonomously with the little touch Mana gave in the end.
Thus, Draco nodded in approval.
"Good job." He said.
"You're welcome." Aether, who had just appeared next to him, replied.
"This much is nothing!" Mana shouted while launching herself to hug him.
"I've done what should be done." Divinity added.
"Mhm mhm." Chi nodded.
"Alright." Seeing how everything was as it should be, Draco nodded once again and thought of his next plan.
Still waiting for Joie to find his candidate, the celestials and devas were all standing close to the lake, and Yapa was watching all of this with them.
And then, out of nowhere, Draco appeared next to him, grabbed him from his robe's neck, and the two disappeared.
"Did Yapa go somewhere?" Looking behind her, Life was surprised to not find the monkey man.
"I don't know, maybe?" Water replied, still looking at Joie.
-----------
"Whoa! Where are we, my lord?" Yapa, finding himself in the middle of the endless expanse of space once again, was surprised. He looked around and asked Draco, who was looking in a specific direction.
"We're still close to Hestia, you just can't see it." Draco, looking at where Hestia should be, replied.
"Huh?" Yapa, not knowing how or when such a thing happened, looked confused.
"Don't worry about it. We have worlds waiting for us to devour; let's move." Draco said.
And so the duo teleported away. Not stopping until they were in front of a planet.
Draco wasn't in his main body at the moment. Seeing how he had yet to discover the full potential of his new powers, he had to take his time once again to study them.
And what better way was there other than to stay on such a secure planet?
The planet they appeared close to was one of the world's of the celestials from the Rose Alliance.
The world now was devoid of any protectors, so all the duo had to do was, destroy the tower, kill all life, and then devour.
The process was easy and fun for Draco. One world after the other, he didn't plan to settle down until he was done devouring all of them; only after that would he go to Yapa's realm.
It didn't take long to do that, and now, all he had to do was devour this last realm and he would be good to go.
{Devouring} Looking at the vast expanse of dark lands in the dimension they were in, Draco was looking forward to what he would gain from it.
Realm were not like worlds. While planets were visible, realms were like a dot in the endless sky you couldn't find unless you knew the exact coordinates. Draco knew, and thus he was able to enter it, destroy the tower within and kill all life like he did with all the previous worlds.

{Devouring Complete!}
"A realmly phenomenon…" Draco opened his eyes in surprise before he squinted them, turning serious.
"So, world's have essences while realms are more specialized?" Out of everything he had gained from the previous 7 worlds, there was nothing worthy of note. All the worldly phenomena he could get, he already had. Thus, he didn't benefit much other than being one step closer to a high celestial.
However, now that he discovered this new fact, things will change.
"This is interesting. Very interesting." Draco smiled evilly.
"Yapa." He called.
"You told me your world was a realm, am I right?" He asked, looking back at him.
"Yes, my lord." Looking at the cold eyes of Draco, Yapa felt a chill.
"Good, good." The demon, smiled.
"Let's move."
