Once we returned back to the World Realm, everyone that was waiting for us here were quite happy to see us back, and even more surprised when they saw a new Sun just appearing out of nowhere and shining above the skies, illuminating the World Realm with its faint yellow light.

"Mama! Mama's back!" Scarlet flew towards me, huggingtightly. "Mama I missed you!"

"I wasn't gone for that long, was I?" I wondered.

"A whole week passed!" Scarlet cried. "Your World Realm tis very fast!"

"O-Oh, my bad, I'm sorry for being gone for too long then," I sighed, kissing my daughter's cheeks and forehead. "Can you forgive mama? Now that we got the star, mama will help you beca Star Eater Realm too!"

"Really? Okay, I forgive mama!" Scarlet cutely said. "But I still missed you…" she kept hugging me, wrapping her tail around my body as usual.

"I'm sho showy baby girl, I'm here for you now," I caressed her long red hair. "Now letgo greet the rest of the family, alright?"

As we moved above the gigantic metropolis surrounding my castle, hundreds of thousands of people noticed our arrival and the new sun in the sky, greeting us happily.

"It's Kireina-sama!"

"She's back!"

"I heard she had gone to obtain a new sun? She did get it at the end!"

"A-Amazing!"

"It's a bit hot though, I hope summer doesn't get too long now…"

There were all kinds of people in my city. A city that I had developed over a long time, which once started as a small village, and ended extending into a massive metropolis full of the latest magic technology.

The people rapidly adapted to the changes, the technology made life much easier, but also more entertaining. The were also new jobs to maintain this society, which I ended building slightly similar to the one from Earth.

Large skyscrapers were already built around, mixing beautifully with nature and the Grand Forest. I didn't want the city to completely overtake nature, so with Charlotte we devised a large city that would meld with nature instead of aggressively take over everything.

All of the Layers of the Grand Forest had already been turned into a gigantic metropolis, these layers I once explored, when they were untamed and wild, full of monsters, dungeons, and other wonders.

And well, aside from the dangerous wild monsters, the dungeons mostly remained right where they were, although they were now all connected as a single gigantic Dungeon too, they were still there, and their original monsters continued appearing.

Dropped items, materials, food, and resources, Dungeons feed the populace with all of that. Most of the populace not interested on becoming Gods remain at mortal level, although at varying levels.

Thanks to the Origin System though, everyone can continue leveling up even after reaching max level, so a resurgence of old adventurers that hit max level had begun appearing.

The media of the city had spread around over the exploration of dungeons, and people that had mostly forgotten about a life of adventure and danger had suddenly shifted to that again, and their children, grandchildren, and grand grandchildren.

Because tgoes fast here, a lot more years have passed when I wasn't looking over all this time, so yeah, this place develops faster than I can even catch up to it.

Although all my close friends becGods like me, there were speople, mortals, which remained as they were, and went on their lives. Seven got a bunch of children, becgrandpas, or even passed away.

It makesslightly sad how different the perspective of life becomes once you beca God and continue your ascension, while mortals have much simpler lives… shorter too.

Although most people becChaos Humans, this didn't mean they becimmortal or something, they gained new abilities and such, but at the end of the day, even with great powers, everyone wanted to live their own lives.

Although my army of Gods keeps increasing as mortals that ascend becmore common and immediately join my ranks to fight on protecting their world, my Realm, the quantity of mortals remains as high as ever.

But are they useless? Of course not, they develop all kinds of amazing little things I love looking, delicious food, entertainment, and even video games, phones and more.

"A lot of people are calling you mama, you're popular!" said Scarlet.

"I guess I am, well, I am the one that made all of this possible, heh," I smiled pridefully. "Ah well, I can't really bother myself by giving them more attention though, I have a lot of things to do and a family to meet."

As I entered the territory of my castle, I saw my guards, the giant skeletons were still there, enormous in size and mighty, they had becpart of my Godly army. And more and more Gods were rapidly becoming SuprGod-level and soon to becWorld Devourers.

I plan to make an army of thousands of Cosmic Beings to aidin future battles. Because as I realized when I fought the Recessed, there was no way I would win a battle against all of them.

The swas with the Outer Gods, if the Maxima Universe hadn't arrived in that moment…

But a full-fledged war where I can't just escape? I would surely lose against so many cosmic beings. This is why I need a big army, powerful cosmic mechs powered by realm cores and miniature stars, and more strength.

"Welcback mom!" my beautiful daughter Aarae greeted us the moment we stepped into the castle, she was with Erwin at her side, her belly had gotten even larger.

"Yeah, it was really intense though! Good thing you were not there," Gaby nodded.

"You're implying I'm weak, mother? I can handle it!" Aarae said a bit angrily.

I guess she still had that fighting spirit even while being pregnant…

She's a lot like Gaby and me, actually.
