"everyone is alright here! just a couple scratches." Timothy said.
"same here." Inz said.
"quick this child needs medical attention now! they've lost an eye!" Lein said.
Inz uses her ice magic to help cool the child down, Timothy bandages up their eye, as everyone is checking on the citizens, Violet is in the forest hunting the last of the soldiers down, "get back here!" Violet shouted at the fleeing soldiers, "if you're a soldier then face me like one!" she shouted hoping to get their attention, with no choice she killed all of them one by one, swinging through the trees while burning their corpses so that the mist doesn't spread throughout the forest, if the forest were to be surrounded by the mist, then all the people that survived would most likely face death again, in order to not let that happen, Violet is determined to finish them all of so that none make it back, and so that no more people will get hurt.
Violet didn't manage to take them all out, but she took out more than 80% of the ones that retreated, Violet didn't know why some of the soldiers stayed behind and some of them stayed back to fight the gods, perhaps Mede was making them stall for time as the majority of them ran away to avoid further losses? maybe Mede was actually low on soldiers and ordered them to run away so that she could preserve her soldiers? no matter what her intentions for ordering them to run were, at least Violet might have put a stop to what she was intending to do.
"ah.. Violet, you have made my next plan to take you all out a lot easier than I had anticipated." Mede said, followed with hysterical laughter.
"I've cleared out most of the soldiers than were running away, they didn't even bother to defend themselves." Violet said, "gods can order their troops to do one thing from any distance as long as they were in the same timeline, but they can only order them to do one thing at a time, so maybe she didn't think you were going to pursue the soldiers." Timothy said.
"really? then do I have any soldiers I can order here?" Violet asked, "unfortunately, there aren't any soldiers that you command in this timeline, but even if there were, I doubt you'd be able to command them anyway.
"hey, Tim, you and the others are leaving now right?" Lein asked with a red face, "is he embarrassed?" Violet and Inz both thought, "yeah, we got what we came here for so we should really get going." Timothy was confused why Lein was asking him something like that, "really? then could you take me with you, I'm getting really bored in this world, especially since Inz won't talk to me." Lein said, Timothy and Inz were both shocked for some reason, Violet was now confused as well, "are you sure?" Timothy asked.
"didn't you just hear me?" Lein said as he steadied himself and said "lets go!"
Timothy and Inz were quite surprised at his sudden outburst of energy and started laughing at Lein for doing something so out of character, "hey! why are you laughing, did I do something weird?" Lein asked, Inz and Timothy stopped laughing and said, "you've always been the type of person who would always have a cold shoulder except for when you brag about yourself, but other than that, you've never been seen with this much enthusiasm before, what got into you this time?" Inz said.
"nothing's gotten into me at all okay!" Lein shouted, all the people went back into their homes and locked their doors and windows for the time being, the king sent a message to everyone in their houses then thanked the gods for helping him save what's left of his kingdom again, "yeah whatever, you old human." Lein said, "hey that's rude!" Inz told Lein, "how is it rude when it's the truth!" Lein told Inz, Lein and Inz started arguing again, "Violet you were the most excellent fighter I have ever seen, thank you for your help." the king said, "oh it was nothing, just helping out where I should." Violet said, "I hope Felix is seeing this wherever he is now." Violet thought.
A portal then opened up behind them all and a small girl with golden drills and purple eyes, came out behind them, holding what looked like a cannon but with a different shape, "hi! I'm your new god from now on, Mello!" Mello was very cheery and happy for some reason, "oh hi there, token loli." Lein taunted the little girl, "w-w-w who are you calling a, t-t token loli! Lein you basta-" just as Mello was about to shoot Lein, he used a lightning bolt to tickle her, making her lose focus and she ended up shooting the forest causing a massive explosion, "now now, no need to get so worked, Mello, I'm just teasing you, haha." Lein laughed, "Lein I'm never going to forgive you!" Mello screamed.
"who is this?" Violet asked, "oh, this is Mello, she's quite a new goddess, as you can see, but this is still her permanent form, unless if she reincarnates."
"oh so this is what a new goddess looks like, so does that mean that I'm technically a new goddess too?" Violet said, "well I suppose you are technically a new goddess, just a very strong one." Inz said, "Mello say hi to Violet, she's the reincarnation of Vemillia." Timothy said, "wait what did you just say, the god we were searching for all those years back, is right in front of me now!, seriously!"
"okay, that's enough talking for this timeline, lets go to the next shard which is about three timelines over from our position."
"I'm ready." Inz and Lein bot said, "me too!" Violet followed up, "wait are you all just leaving me here?" Mello asked, "of course, we'll come back once our mission is done, ok?" Timothy said, "fine, just come back soon, I'm getting kind of nervous here." and with that they travelled to the next world then the next and then the next where they will find the next shard.
