Krenocia says "I can, but you should have sent it to my sister instead."

  "Nope. She is getting around two hundred angels, you get the avatar!"

  Krenocia says "Two hundred?! Please, tell me you are joking!!"

  "No, I'm not joking. I don't know the exact number because I didn't actually stop to count the cores, but it should be around two hundred."

  Krenocia says "I can't believe you killed that many angels! In fact, I can't believe that Holos had so many angels! Wait, does Holos even have any angels left now?"

  "Probably not. If he does, it won't be many. He is going to be fairly upset when he goes home. Haha!"

  Krenocia says "Ash, what's with that laugh? What else did you do?!"

  Um, well, I may have started a small fire before I left, but it's okay, I doubt he will return."

  Krenocia says "A small fire? How small?! Wait, why wouldn't he return?!"

  "Well, my guess is that he left that avatar where he did so he had a way to escape the pantheon. When it died, he probably went a little crazy. He may have even tried to leave. Either way, it isn't going to look good for him!"

  Krenocia says "That's probably true, but I don't like the way you are avoiding the question about the fire!!"

  "Oh, fine! I may have accidentally burned his city to the ground."

  Krenocia says "You what?!"

  "It was an accident, I swear!"

  Krenocia says "Oh, really? What were you doing when this fire accidentally started??"

  "I was just taking a walk around the city!"

  Krenocia says "Yeah, right!"

  "I was! I was just thirty feet tall at the time."

  Krenocia says "You were what?! How did you? No, you know what, nevermind! I don't want to know! I just have one question for you."

  "What is it?"

  Krenocia says "If Holos is found guilty, Mythica will invade his domain. What do you think she is going to do when she sees what you did?"

  "She will probably go crazy trying to figure out who did it, but she will have no way of finding out. There is nothing there that will implicate me."

  Krenocia says "Really? You killed all the souls and angels? There are no witnesses?"

  This tale has been unlawfully lifted without the author's consent. Report any appearances on Amazon.

  "Um, well, there might be a few souls who hid in the forest. I didn't bother trying to hunt them down."

  Krenocia says "So, all she has to do is ask them. She is an angel, they will tell her everything they saw and if you were thirty feet tall, chances are at least one of them saw you."

  "So you are saying that I need to go back and make sure there are no survivors?"

  Krenocia says "What are you going to do if Holos went back after feeling his avatar die?"

  "Um, run away?"

  Krenocia sighs and says "Just forget it. I suggest that you don't go anywhere near Mythica from now on."

  "So, you don't want me to go take care of the witnesses?"

  Krenocia says "No! Knowing your luck, you would run right into Mythica and Holos."

  "Yeah, you are probably right."

  Krenocia says "Anyway, thank you for the avatar. I will make good use of it. I'm also sorry for snapping at you, but you just keep doing crazy things!"

  "Maybe so, but they keep working."

  Krenocia says "Yes, they do and I'm not sure if that scares me more!"

  "Anyway, it is settled now and there is no going back. I will just have to hope that Mythica doesn't think of questioning the souls. Even if she does figure it out, there isn't much she can do to me."

  Krenocia says "There is plenty she can do to you, especially since you are in her territory. Why are you in the southern empire anyway?"

  "Just in case Holos was able to track my gate. This way he will think I am an agent for the pantheon. Besides, I was thinking about hunting some demonic beasts and collecting cores for my angel. Oh, that reminds me, can an angel consume angel cores?"

  Krenocia says "No! Well, technically they can, but they won't stay as angels. It is similar to cannibalism, it changes and corrupts them."

  "Oh. What would they turn into? Demons?"

  Krenocia says "No, it is something in between. I have never actually seen it, just heard about it."

  "So, it would be more like a fallen angel? If so, that might work better."

  Krenocia says "Yes, fallen angel would be a fitting description. Why would that be better?"

  "Well, let's be honest. An angel doesn't really fit with my personality, does it? I would probably get along better with a fallen angel."

  Krenocia says "That would only be an issue if we were going to give you an angel of ours. Since you are creating a new angel, its personality will be based off of yours. Actually, now that I think about it, this is a horrible idea!"

  "Don't worry, you are in the clear! You can blame whatever happens on your sister!"

  Krenocia says "While that is true, it isn't very comforting!"

  "Sorry, nothing that I can do about that."

  Krenocia says "Just try and keep out of trouble for a while?"

  "I'll try, but no promises."

  Krenocia says "I will take what I can get. Alright, I'm going to go drain the power from this avatar. Contact me if you need anything."

  After ending the conversation with Krenocia, I use the medallion to check in with Leonarr and Myria. Of course, when I tell Myria that I went back to Holos' domain without telling her, she is pissed. She chews me out for a good twenty minutes, but I don't really mind it.

  While she is ranting at me, I am working on recovering my mana, so I'm not losing any time. When she finally runs out of steam, I tell her what happened in the domain. She is still not happy about it, but she does admit that I gained a lot this time.

  Myria says "So, when will you be back?"

  "I am going to farm some demonic beasts first, so maybe a day or so. Why?"

  Myria says "So I can come back and punish you properly!"

  "Are you not having fun in the empire?"

  Myria says "I was, but things have gotten really chaotic now. For some reason, people are turning against the church and the clergy can't seem to use their powers. There are now so many different sides fighting that it is hard to keep track of who to fight."

  "That's simple, you fight anyone that isn't a beastman that gets in your way. It is interesting that the clergy lost their holy powers, it must have something to do with the pantheon. I wish I had someone I could ask."

  Myria says "Can't you ask that angel, Mythica?"

  "I could, but I can only summon her once and I don't want to waste it. Besides, I don't want to answer the questions that she might have for me."

  Myria says "You think she already knows about what you did?"
