Looking at the sword hovering in the middle of the ritual, Shiro could see that it's shape had completely changed. Its guard was now replaced by a black and red crystal that seemed to creep up the blade and pulsed in sync with a heartbeat. The blade itself was completely black with red runes and circular holes in the centre that are filled with the incomplete upgrades and Helion tried to infuse onto this blade.

  All of her runes that she carved to help her with Time Magic were also within these holes but the green glow had been replaced by red.

  Rather than a sword with a double sided edge, it was more akin to a katana now as the blunt side was 'corrupted' by the crystals.

  [Iriel, Soul Eater Blade of the Destroyer – Chaos]

  Upgrade in progress (45%)

  A blade formed from the masterpiece of Hephaestus, an indestructible sword and an immortal soul of an ancient being. Tempered by the primal forces of destruction, this blade now possesses the power to render all to null. Wielded by the First Born of Destruction, this is the only blade in the world that can handle her power.

  In your presence, your enemies will have their divinity suppressed by half a rank. (Rank 2 God -> Rank 1.5 Demi God).

  Effect 7 – This sword is bound to your code and can be summoned/resummoned at will.

  Code Bound – Shiro. (If you are to die and reincarnate without your memories, this sword can still be summoned but is synced to your level until you regain your strength.)

  Looking at all the upgrades to this sword, Shiro was speechless. All of the effects have been upgraded massively and if she was to fight Rokarn again, he would probably die within 5 minutes.

  Massaging her eyes, Shiro didn't even want to bother about the other notifications as she knows it's probably announcements to the world.

  "How are you feeling?" Shiro asked as Iriel floated there for a moment without saying anything.

  Furrowing her brows for a moment, Shiro was about to ask again when she heard him speak.

  "Why is my gender listed as sword…" Iriel asked as Shiro paused in surprise.

  "Errr… If you are going to f*ck someone in this form then I'd be rather concerned." Shiro said, pointing at the blade, causing Iriel to sigh heavily.

  "Tsk, well setting aside the problem of my penis, I need to rest for a bit since it's still a bit difficult."

  Nodding her head, Shiro waved her hand as Iriel transformed into a bracelet that wrapped around her right wrist.

  Looking at the bracelet, she noticed that it was rather thin with a pulsing crystal in the middle. Similar to the sword, it was black in colour.

  With Iriel now on her wrist, Shiro sat down and closed her eyes.

  Leaning back, she dove into her mana realm and looked at the ball of light floating in the corner all alone.

  "Sorry Silvanis, I had to borrow your sword body for Iriel. But I got something better for you." Shiro called out but the ball only 'glanced' back before continuing its sulk in the corner.

  Smiling helplessly, Shiro walked up behind it and sat down in the air.

  "You see, this is only something I can do for you but not Iriel since he needs a physical body. If you think about it, what I'm doing for you is slightly better than what I'm doing for him." Shiro said as she snapped her finger.

  Plunging her hand into her chest, she started to pull out a dark blade that seemed to be made up of black mist.

  "This is my soul sword. It's an old skill that I recreated just now since my control over swords have increased. If you sync to this one, it should be slightly better than your old body. Plus, if you think about it, the soul sword is better than a physical sword since I'm the strongest. By extension, you'll also be the strongest. Even stronger than Iriel." Shiro winked as Silvanis thought about it for a moment before turning around and jumped on her shoulder.

  Little by little, the ball of light started to fade as it transformed into white mist that started to fuse with the sword.

  Watching this, Shiro smiled. The Soul Sword in her hand wasn't a proper Soul Sword but rather one that's created from a shard of her that hasn't been touched by Destruction. If it was her proper Soul Sword, Silvanis would be reduced to nothing.

  'Iriel is a sword that's been touched by pure destruction while Silvanis is going to fuse with a shard of me that's cultivating the divinity of creation. The end product should be two swords that represent both primal destruction and primal creation.' Shiro thought to herself as she wasn't satisfied with just one Chaos grade weapon.

  She wanted two.

  Plus, not all weapons needed a physical form. When she was Anima, she had seen plenty of weapons that were more spiritual than physical since physical weapons can break during combat, unlike Iriel who is indestructible.

  'Silvanis is more suited to be a spiritual weapon if I'm going to infuse her with the divinity of creation since I'm using source codes as a bridge for me to become something akin to the First Born of Creation.' Shiro thought to herself as she opened her eyes once more.

  With Iriel on her wrist and Silvanis slowly fusing with the Soul Sword, Shiro decided to relax for now and make some adequate preparations for the second half of the new age. It was about time to go back as well since she succeeded in finding a way to obtain a creation divinity through Error.
