That castle in the distance was overflowing with Corrupted Cosmic Energies and Spiritual Energies of the Ice and Fire Element. Without a doubt, Skadi, Lazuli, and Blaze were there. Probably also that Supreme Spirit that was accompanying Skadi.

Dammit, I am not really liking this. I consider Lazuli and Blaze my adoptive daughters, I don't want to see them turned into monsters, they must be suffering the same way that Freyja did... And Skadi as well as her spirit.

We've managed to rescue the gods too, and even Uru is here, one of Lazuli's retainers and knight guardian. He probably could know some things about what happened earlier, but I am not too sure.

However, it doesn't really matter, we have to get there asap anyways, no time to waste!

Once the monsters were finally dealt with, I waved my hands, using cosmic energy to gather all resources left behind, which was all the Loot produced.

"Looks like we're done," said Brontes, appearing by my side as a zap of electricity. "It seems that they were quite strong though, everyone else was struggling a lot."

"It must be because they had yet to awaken their Cosmic Authority," I explained. "They had been fighting with just their Divinities and the Origin System's Skills and Levels, it what's helped them get strong enough they wouldn't die immediately, like you girls before I found you."

"Oh yeah, I suppose that's what they did then..." Brontes nodded. "So what do we do, Kireina?"

"Simple, we advance, go to that castle, and destroy it," I said. "We'll find what's going on inside and then move forward... I bet you're itching for a bigger battle, right?"

"Indeed," she nodded. "Vudia could use some fighting as well, she wants to level up and train some more."

"Alright then," I nodded. "Everyone! Quickly come back to Wall, we're moving to the castle in the distance!"

I called for everyone who was still exploring the frozen lands or gathering resources, my children in specific, were making snowmen already.

Seriously, I think I've indeed raised them too spoiled, to be relaxed in a situation like this... "Aw! Already? Can't we make more snowmen and play snow ball wars?" wondered Vudia. "I want to play some more!" Ailine said.

"Just when I thought you girls had already grown up a bit more..." I facepalmed. "We'll play all you want later! Come back, we can do something like this inside my Cosmic Realm anyways..."

"Yeah but it feels fake... I want to be in the outside world some more..." said Solyth, complaining.

"We want to explore the outside world mom!" said Nyphenne. "Come on, can't we?"

"That's enough you two! You know that we are on an important mission! We've come here to rescue friends, not to bid our time!" said Nephiana, appearing to reprimand our daughters. "Now come with us or I'll grab you back to the nest like some chick with my talons!" "Eek!"

"Ok, ok!"

Vudia and Ailine were also dragged back by Brontes and Rimuru, they had grown more rebellious than I remember. I guess they indeed want to freely explore a world outside.

This entire time I've always kept them within Realms or special spaces, never outside, because outside is so damn dangerous!

"Mwaster! I brought you a lot of stuff gaaoo!"

Suddenly, as I saw everyone quickly climbing and flying over Wall, I noticed Mao arriving, she

brought with her, carried through her Aura shaped as hands, several things.

It was well, a pile of ice and frost cosmic crystals that she found around.

"Oh? These are pure Fire and Frost Spirit Cosmic Crystals?" I wondered.

"It's of pretty good quality guu!" Rimuru nodded, walking to my side. "Well done Mao!"

"Thank you gaoo! I did my best mining these!" Mao puffed her chest pridefully.

"Hmm? I can't really tell, are these different in some way to the other spirit stones?" Nesiphae asked.

"They are," I nodded. "They're supposed to be made of compressed and crystalized cosmic spirit energies... I'll store them for now, they'll come in handy as ingredients later. Now..." After giving Mao her head pat to make her happy, I quickly glanced at the two approaching figures that Palami, Raito, and Asure brought with them.

"Stop right there," I said. "Palami, Raito, Asure, you plan on bringing these people I don't even know inside of Wall without even asking me?"

"A-Ah! We apologize, we forgot to introduce them to you, Kireina-sama!" Palami became slightly flustered.

"My bad, sorry..." Asure apologized.

"They helped us out a whole lot!" Raito said. "They healed Palami and saved her, then helped us fight all those other monsters, Kireina-sama! They're good guys!"

"Good guys you say..." I squinted my eyes at them. "Is that true? Are you really good guys, I wonder?"

"Yes, or well, we're trying to be," said Eduard, his deep voice echoing from one of the two almost identical mechas. "It's a long story, where we come from, but I hope you could listen to us."

"We mean no harm, and we've decided to help you largely because we're lost and need some help ourselves," said Michaela. "We believed that helping others is the best way to earn their

trust."

"It certainly is, these three already love you it seems!" I sighed, crossing my arms. "Hmm, first, tell me what exactly you are, and where did you come from."

The two looked at one another through their mechas heads, then glanced back at me.

"We are descendants of the Human Colonies that escaped Earth millions of years ago," Eduard said.

"You may know that world as Genesis now, which seems to also happen to be the name of the Alien Lifeform that invaded our planet, G.E.N.E.S.I.S. which seems to have become Earth's main authority now..." Michaela said.

"Y-You're... really?!" I gasped. "So you're Ancient Humans!"

"Yes, technically- Well not really we're their descendants," said Michaela.

"Modifications were made to our kind over many years to survive zero gravity and also to be able to pilot our machines and be attuned with machinery much better," said Eduard.

"We are frail, so we cannot go outside of our mechanical suits, or we would risk dying

immediately," said Eduard.

"We're sorry," said Michaela.

"Ah, I see... No, no, it's fine!" I said. "Actually, this is just incredible..."

I never expected this to ever happen.
