149 Chapter 10: Hmmm
Hueco Mundo...
"So I'm thinking we're done here?" Starrk yawned as he stood at the air above, overlooking the hundreds of millions hollows kneeling down below them.
He saw that many of them almost passed out when his gaze landed on them. He almost rolled his eyes at that, he wasn't that scary, besides its not like he was the one who went on a killing spree.
Yeah, he shuddered remembering Lilynette grinning as she massacred Vasto Lorde and Adjuchas like she was killing some ants with boiling water.
Starrk was pretty sure that the Hueco Mundo has been greatly weakened where a single division from Gotei 13 could pose a threat to them.
"Yeah, we should probably head back now." Sun-sung covered the lower half of her face with her sleeves as she glanced at the Hollows them.
"Oh, thank Satan for that! This whole retrieval Starrk thing is pretty boring!" Apacci groaned, she didn't even get to do anything here!
Everything was done by the little midget! She shot Lilynette an annoyed glare which the little girl ignored. It might just be her imagination but, Apacci was pretty sure she saw a smug smirk on Lilynette's face for just a second.
"We should probably bring back this girl to Lord Alexander as well." said Mila Rose as she pointed a thumb at the former third Espada, Nelliel.
Starrk suddenly frowned as he lazily turned his head to the side, where a red portal suddenly appeared.
The others also turned their gaze at the portal, with Nelliel slightly moving into a defensive stance.
A beat later, a figure suddenly "walked" out of the portal. It was Tier, who was wearing a plain black tank top and white denim shorts.
"Starrk, Lord Alex has requested your presence."

Earth, Parthenon—Nashville...
Sitting at the arms of a large statue of a certain goddess, is a handsome man with short messy silver hair and two purple bangs on both side of his face.
He was wearing a white greek-like toga, a pair of light brown caligae and a golden laurel. He also has a golden bracelets on both of his wrists.
With a sigh, he looked up, "What are you doing here, Da'ath?"
There, standing at the head of the statue is none other the landlady of Yuragi Inn, and the Da'ath of Earth, and currently the strongest Sephira on the world.
"You know..." Landlady began, looking at the silver haired man, "The "Ritual" will be much easier with you participating."
"Buzz off." He rolled his eyes, "I have seen the other side, I know the "truth" that was hidden, this universe is controlled by something of a higher existence, and in the end, everyone will die, including me."
Landlady frowned, she had also been on the other side but she couldn't remember meeting this so-called higher existence.
"Don't be ridiculous, I have been there before, there is only the Origin Tree."
"Transcendent Connection," said the man, "My Conceptual Skill that allows me to share connection with the almighty, primal, primordial, omnipotent or transcendent, in this case, the Origin Tree, therefore receiving insights from cosmic knowledge, be empowered by said source and unlock diverse inner talents."
Landlady remained silent, just silently watching the man as he stood up and clenched his fist.
"With it came knowledge I shouldn't have known, I have seen the "Truth", but I refuse to accept it!" He turned his gaze to the landlady, giving her a maniacal grin, "That man will also possibly be able to learn the "truth" due to the Yesod Fragment, and trust me, he will help me."
Landlady remained silent for a minute before she finally decided to speak, "...I know your plans. And I'm telling you, it's stupid and will endanger the world, causing its balance to be destroyed. Alexander won't allow it, he will never allow anything that might cause harm to his family."
"We'll see." The man closed his eyes before disappearing in purple light.
Landlady sighed and massaged the bridge of her nose, "Why can't you just listen to me once, Yesod."

Ente Isla, Blue Moon—Heaven...
Sitting inside the throne of a gigantic palace, is a beautiful petite woman wearing a white gown, staring at the faraway red moon.
The woman has a long silver hair with a white headband, with a bangs covering her right eye, showing only her left ruby red eye.
This woman is Ignora, the self-proclaimed God of Ente Isla, Leader of Angels, and mother of the Demon General Lucifer.
Her attention was caught by the sound of footsteps approaching her. She took her eyes away from the red moon and looked at front, where she saw two girls walking towards her.
One is a girl around 17-18 years with golden eyes, and white hair with yellow fringe. She wears a white, one piece sleeveless dress with a brown belt and a light brown sandals.
Beside her, is a young girl around ten years old with golden eyes, reddish brown hair with an olive fringe. She was wearing an astronaut suit, holding her helmet in her arms.
The two look almost identical.
They paused a few meters away from Ignora and gave a light bow.
"Mother." They said.
Ignora gave them a nod as a small smile appeared on her face, "Eros, Nuxe, how nice of you two to visit me. Is it about "that"?"
Eros is the older girl while Nuxe is the younger one. Despite them calling Ignora mother, they aren't related...at least, Ignora isn't the one who gave birth to them.
Eros and Nuxe are a Sephira, they are both the Personification of the Sephira Malkuth. They, along with the other Sephira, sees Ignora as their mother.
As for why there are two of them, well, it was the result of Ignora's action, when she split the Latent Force into Demonic and Celestial Force.
Eros nodded at Ignora, "Indeed mother, we came here to inform you that the thing you asked us to make has already been finished."
"We put a lot of effort into it mother!" Nuxe grinned, giving Ignora a look that says "praise me".
Ignora softly chuckled, staring at the grinning child in amusement, "...Good job Nuxe, Eros. You all have done a wonderful job, thank you."
"Hehe~" Nuxe blushed a bit as she shyly covered her face with her helmet.
"No need for thanks mother," Eros smiled, "Though, I'm a little curious, what do you plan to do with "that" thing mother? It is very dangerous."
Ignora's eyes turned cold as she moved her gaze towards the red moon.
"War."
