Pov Dantho (Evil Priest of Greed):
I wake up already landing on the planet, so I get up and go outside the carriage, as soon as I leave I stop my wonderful carriage made of bones of a Dragon King with details of gold and mithril, I wave my hand making the carriage shrinking as a crystal bubble forms around it, I collect the small crystal sphere as I land on the ground in front of a large tree.
"(I hate coming to this place.)" (I)
I look around to make sure I'm in the right location, the sense of danger I feel never letting my guard down as I turn to face the big tree.
"It's me, Dantho." (I)
ραndαsnοvεl.cοm "What do you want here?"
I look at the tree and speak, a mouth opens revealing its teeth and tongue as it smiles speaking, this thing as always is disgusting.
I glance around, and as usual, I don't hear any other sounds in the forest, in fact, there is no sign of other creatures around, this place bothers me for the simple fact that it has nothing, a real detriment to me.
"Tell Yntra I brought what she asked for." (I)
"You may come in, Dantho." (Yntra)
Suddenly the voice changes becoming more feminine and with a loving tone, just hearing that voice gives me chills every time I hear it.
"(How can someone like her have a voice like that, it's kind of a bad joke how her personality changes at will.)" (I)
"I don't want to go in, you know I don't like those disgusting things..." (I)
"Don't make me repeat my invitation, I need to make sure it's you, so come in dear..." (Yntra)
"..." (I)
She continues speaking in a loving tone without raising her voice, but the meaning of these words are a clear threat, I look around and see thousands of eyes opening on the ground, trees, flowers, and even the grass.
"(I really hate coming to this place.)" (I)
The tree's large mouth opens wide enough for me to pass through with ease while the tongue stretches out to the ground in front of me forming a smooth ramp for me to pass through, as soon as I entered I realized that instead of a gorge, it was a tunnel with stairs of stairs bone, the walls and ceiling of the tunnel were slightly reddish while pulsing.
I felt and saw the tunnel move and when I got out I was in that horrible hall again, an Elf woman with black hair and blue skin was putting an eye on what looked like a person's head.
"You just need to place your hand on the eye with the magic circle on your right." (Yntra)
"..." (I)
Without saying anything I turn around and see a large giant eye without iris or pupil, what had taken place was a large mark in the shape of a magic circle, I put my hand in the middle and feel something passing through my body, soon after I go back to near the exit and pull a small bag from my waist which I throw at the Elf-like person's feet.
As soon as the bag touches the ground something starts to move inside before it comes out, smooth spider legs come out before a completely round body comes out last with the top part being a transparent dome with what looks like a greenish brain inside together with a liquid of the same color.
The size of this thing is bigger than the bag I dropped on the ground, that's because there was spatial expansion magic inside the bag, this thing moved up the "Elf"'s back and fastened her legs around her like a backpack, then a tentacle with a needle at the end comes out and pierces the back of the head of the "Elf" who shows no reaction never stopping moving her hands.
"Thanks for bringing what I ordered." (Yntra)
"Why didn't you have one of your sons or servants bring it?" (I)
"Since one of my daughters died, I must assume that others are also targets and may be being watched, there are also many ways to control people in this universe which makes our employees less reliable for matters of greater importance." (Yntra)
"You are an ally who has proved useful and even trusted by many forces, you also know more about this universe than my people, that's why I requested you." (Yntra)
"A pity I lost my Haku, we were together for a long time, I wish I had kept the original one with me..." (Yntra)
"With these memories, it should be enough, I can fill in the mental gaps with the memories I have of her… go to where I am…" (Yntra)
After she says the thing behind her back, it detaches itself and runs towards the wall, which opens like an eyelid for the thing to pass before closing.
"Is the body ready yet?" (I)
"Yes, I'll give you the coordinates as soon as I finish assembling the new Haku's body..." (Yntra)

Pov Zenos:
I was with my new God Handmaids, in a room with 2 of my sisters and several people watching through Elizabeth about what we are hearing.
"You mean we can attack them?" (I)
"It's up to you, Master..." (Cinthia)
"Best not to attack now, the bases that can be moved must already be being abandoned while the others will have reinforced security for the next few months." (Haku)
"Didn't you say your memory was incomplete?" (I)
"About secret information, yes." (Haku)
"But I know the Mother of Truth very well, she was my teacher and leader of many of my projects during our stay in our old universe." (Haku)
"She is cautious, from now on her movements will be less apparent until she is sure she can attack with absolute power." (Haku)
"But a reason to start an attack against them, we won't give them time to prepare." (Caitlyn)
"Do you know anything important about Yntra?" (I)
"Yes, unlike me in my previous life where I was obsessed with knowledge about life in its infinite forms." (Haku)
"The Mother of Truth sought to be the supreme leader to lead us and to that end, she eliminated everything that would be inconvenient." (Haku)
"She altered her own body?" (I) "No, she discarded the body and used what was left to merge her brain with dozens of others creating a network of minds, but a brain still needs many things like nutrients to function, she is using magic with our science to remake her mind while adding more and more minds." (Haku)
"With that her base is empty, the connection she's in has just her and many clones that function as her bodies to control as you wish." (Haku)
"The last time I saw her brain was totally spherical being over 1 kilometer in diameter and thousands of minds connected to the network, her mind is the complete information base for us." (Haku)
"All these minds, she stole so many brains to make this..." (I)
"The organic matter comes from various types of creatures, but the minds it used to upgrade its main brain and the brains used in its network are all clones of its own brain, it was done that way to increase compatibility and improve efficiency." (Haku)
"..." (all)
"(She made copies of her brain and connected them all!?)" (I)
I couldn't even imagine the results of this, a person's mind is not a computer that you can connect to other computers of the same type on the same network, this type of thing cannot be done safely, not even with magic and I know it.
"(There must be something else, something that Haku didn't realize, I studied monsters and magic for a long time, I also created many in this last year here in the Dungeon, in the Awakening Ceremonies I already performed the reconstruction of many bodies and I could feel these transformations in my body biological aspect, in the lineage aspect, in the energies aspect and even in the Souls aspect.)" (I)
"(I'm sure this is impossible to accomplish, the Soul wouldn't be able to handle it, the minds would also just be copying themselves and not expanding unless...)" (I)
I started to think and set up many simulations in my mind going over everything we know now, I even remembered the fact that this Mother of Truth has Authority, her Alliance with Evil Gods, and her partnership with the insect swarm.
"I think I understand..." (I)
"How many years has it been since you've seen her, Haku?" (I)
"Possibly more than 5 years, at least not directly." (Haku)
"Was there a difference when she started physically isolating herself?" (I)
"There was a change, that's when the Evil God became our ally, after that our operations expanded beyond anything we did." (Haku)
"..." (I)
"If I'm not mistaken it was the Evil God of Greed, correct?" (I)
"Yes, their Chief Priest is called Dantho." (Haku)
"I understand." (I)
I look at Elizabeth and I know she's come up with the same answer as me, then I look at Caitlyn and realize she hasn't even thought about it, she's just listening to everything without contributing to the conversation.
"Elizabeth, do you think it was Demon or kimera?" (I)
"Devil, if it was Kimera the mind wouldn't be so rational." (Elizabeth)
"If it was a Demon, then would it be possible to acquire Authority?" (I)
"In such extreme conditions? If it was during the transformation it might be possible." (Elizabeth)
"But they're not from this universe, magic doesn't even run in their bodies naturally." (I)
"That's why the time this Evil God appeared seems suspicious, Greed is one of the most corrupting concepts, which in turn can lead one to turn into a Demon." (Elizabeth)
"I thought that might be it, I didn't analyze it as much as you did, but it was a strong possibility..." (I)
Now we can assume that the Mother of Truth is some kind of Demon, I found myself thinking that I should seek out more information on this matter.
