"Hmm... then I thank you for your efforts. I will have the materials delivered within one week at the slowest. Also, when will you depart for Asgard? The situation there is getting worse, day by day."
Stated Zekram slowly.
"How so?"
I asked slowly. I was aware that the situation in Asgard was messed up absolutely. I hope that the civil war hasn't erupted, or all my plans will be done for.
"When everyone saw that the relationships between Odin and Princess Hela are done for, and it very apparent rebellion will occur, others took their chances. Currently, we have some incomplete information about Jotuns, Flame Creatures of Muspellheim, and Dark Elves of Swartalfheim are rebelling."
Said Zekram in a grave voice.
"So Laufey, Surtr, and Malakith can't take it more?"
All three of them were on the same level as Super-Devil, and while as individuals, they weren't posing a threat to Asgard's rule over the Nine Realms of Yggdrasil, together, they could pose some threat. Not to defeat Asgard, but they would be able to cause them tremendous damage, from which they would be recuperating for centuries.
"Yes... what is even more surprising, Hela, while being of only an Intermediate Divinity Stage God, could fight with even Greater Divinity Stage Gods not specialized in combat. Jotun King Laufey has long longed for revenge for the last war, and Surtr wishes to destroy Asgard. While Malakith wants to wipe our Aesir and Vanir species respectively for genocide done by previous King Borr, which was done even before Asgardians arrived at Draconic Deus."
Explained Zekram, the situation there was getting even worse. Jotuns, the Ice Giants were all of High-Class in terms of Energy Reserves and Physique. Additionally, they had extremely fearsome Ice Manipulation innate ability, and countless of them were in Ultimate-Class.
While Musphelheim had a wide range of countless flame-related species that lived there under the rule of Surtr, the strongest Fire Giant that ever existed on the Draconic Deus. And finally, the Dark Elves of Swartalfheim, fearsome assassins and warriors with terrifying stealth skills and masters of magic.
In the past, they were almost brought to extinction by Odin's father, King Borr, but some of them survived and chose to hide in the depths of the Swartalfheim, waiting for their revenge,
"I may have a solution to this. Odin is a lost cause, he turned into a peace-loving fool, and now his enemies are rebelling and probably would march to war. So, I will go and convince Hela to leave Asgard and settle down in the Underworld with her followers. I will even provide her territory."
I said to Zekram, to which he nodded in satisfaction.
"What about the severing connection with Asgard? She will lose her Divinity and fall to Ultimate-Class the moment Odin will cast her out."
Stated Zekram.
Aesir and Vanir had different power systems, as they took Divinity directly from the Dimensional World Asgard, not from their followers. Additionally, they could get stronger even without becoming gods.

For example, Hela became a god when she was already Ultimate-Class, as she was given Divinity over Death and Slaughter by the God-King of the Pantheon Odin. He could also take it back as he gave her access to it.
This was the advantage of the Divine Pantheon from the Astral Boundary.
"Still better than being chained like a half-beaten dog, to live as a slave for the rest of her life. Also, like any other Aesir or Vanir, she could get stronger even without it, and don't forget that they can transform into Innate Gods. You know that someone like Hela won't be able to exist under Odin's rule after he decided to be a peace-loving idiot. Millions of Aesir and Vanir will follow her if she comes here because, like us, they are also a battle race."
I said.
If Hela joins our side, it won't be just her but also millions of their people. Asgard was built on blood and the corpses of countless enemies in the Astral Boundary, and now their God-King has decided to be a pacifist. From many of them, it was like thunder from the clear sky.
Countless Asgardians, all Berserkers, and many Einherjar would rather leave Asgard to continue their war-like lifestyle than be turned into ceremonial soldiers who would see battle once per century, and their main job would be catching thieves.
"If you can convince her, then it would be great. Also, be careful of Odin. All-Father is a mighty being. Even if he softened, he is still one of the top Greater Divinity Stage Gods in Draconic Deus, and he uses the might of the entire Asgard as God-King he can obtain the power of Apocalypse-Class for ten minutes."
Warned me Zekram as he soon departed from Castle Fuerig while I returned to my things.
After he left, I experimented with a new type of spell that I had been thinking about. More precisely, Dimensional Spells. It was a branch of Space Magic and a very strong one, capable of tearing down the fabric of reality itself.
I focused on one peculiar spell, called a Dimensional Slash, that is able to space itself. If I master this spell and transport it to the Tier Magic System, I would probably be unrivaled among all Untlimate-Class powerhouses on Draconic Deus. If not unrivaled, then at least in the Top 3.
I went to my training field to conduct my experiments, where I usually tested new magic spells. It didn't take me long before I already had a functioning spell matrix that could be tested.
By the initial analysis, the power of this spell was a top-notch Strategic-Tier spell. If more demonic energy was used in constructing the spell matrix, it could reach even higher tiers. The possibilities of the Dimensional Spell were infinite.
After a few tests, I ensured the Dimensional Slash spell was wholly stable and suitable for combat. In the future, I would have another powerful spell in my arsenal.
