There were series of notification streaming in front of me, it was all good that Eunomia was healing, I was back to being strong, and I was happy about the new updates, but there was one particular notification that drew my gaze.
["Goddess_whowieldsa_ice-sword" is gazing at the user with tender, loveable gaze]
I could instantly tell that it was Isha's, and an ingenious idea flashed in my mind as I glanced at Isha.
Although I was feeling anxious due to Pyre's pained cries, never have I ever heard him cry so much, it wasn't like I was in a situation in able to do something over a spilled milk. And since he was directly connected with me through my soul, I could feel his pain and sadness of the lose of his loved ones, you could also say that the entirety of the nature was his loved one, but if he took everything to his heart, then he wouldn't be able to survive, it wasn't that he felt nothing, he just didn't bother expressing his feelings as he carried in the pains of the nature. His loved ones he was grieving for currently were none other than the dragons, who had now turned into undeads.
It wasn't that I wasn't taking Pyre's condition seriously, but I didn't try to comfort him because the situation was already out of our hands. I couldn't really do anything currently and he too was crying exactly because he knew nothing could be done now.
"What is it?" Isha asked feeling my gaze.
"Make me your recipient." I said.
"What!?" Isha asked in surprise and disbelief.
[You! You know that you can't become a god of you become my recipient now, don't you?] Isha exclaimed telepathically.
[When did I ever say I wanted to become a god?] I asked back.
[Y-yu-you! I can't believe you!] Isha exclaimed, but since she knew that I wouldn't change my mind, she sighed and complied with my request.
["Goddess_whowieldsa_ice-sword" is willing to become the user's sponsor] [Y/N]
Since I didn't know much about it, I decided to trust Isha and clicked yes, because I knew she would accept my request.
["Goddess_whowieldsa_ice-sword" had become the user's sponsor!]
DING-!
[User is the first to get a sponsor!]

'The rewards seem good....' I thought as I equipped the outfit that was given to me as a reward. A hooded, dark brown, long coat with a pitch-black t-shirt, similar aesthetic cargo pants, boots, and gloves manifested, adorning themselves on my almost naked body.

"What is essence?" I mumbled with a frown.
[Essence = Pure or innate ki]
After I got the answer to my question, I understood that my stats were lower because I had started anew, but that wouldn't matter much if I employ the essence with each and every moments of mine from now on, it would easily make up for my lack of stats. I glanced around, noticing the states of the five alive, but abruptly
[Sponsor: Goddess_whowieldsa_ice-sword has sponsored the user's actions, and will continued to do so without tying down the user, who has his free will.]
"?" Tilting my head in confusion, I glanced at Isha from the corner of my eyes, but she avoided my gaze as she looked around, whistling as if she found something interesting.
[Become a god, Eshwar. Though it is annoying to join a faction, you can stay neutral and enjoy the battles between the other factions. And it won't be all that bad since I'll be next to you.] Isha said telepathically, assuring about an alternative choice which I came to agree albeit reluctantly.
'Calm down, Pyre. What's done is done, we can't do anything now and you know it.' I mumbled inwardly.
"Erebus." I mumbled and a small, cute, black cat manifested into reality with a puff.
"Mrew~" Erebus stroked his head at my arm as he purred empathetically, and I could tell by his actions that he was trying to comfort Pyre, who was crying as he rested on my soul which was the only place he could find solace in.
"Let's go. Let's go give those poor souls their ends, so that they can rest in peace." I said as I tapped at Erebus's head, meowing in agreement, Erebus became bigger than a bus with a loud puff, covered in a large magic power oozing cloud.
Jumping on his back first, I glanced at Isha and offered her my hand which she took in an heartbeat, I pulled her up and made her sit behind me as we gazed at a distance where the cries of the nature was stronger.
"W-we, we'll also join." Charlie said, and Grace, break, Reynolds, and Hannah nodded their heads in affirmation.
I turned back in an unnatural angle, held Isha's waist and lifted her up before making her sit in front of me and hugged her front behind, before glancing at the batch with a uncertain gaze.
"Are you sure? You will die due to the speed he'll run at." I warned as I pointed at Erebus, who began to growl and hiss in a low commanding tone, urging them to get on of they planned to.
"Y-ye-yes!! We'll still go with you." They said in unison and I waved my hand with a sigh, lifting then up with energy manipulation that was levelling up like crazy. If I used these skills, whose basic principles I was well aware of, it won't take that long before they too become those of higher levels, like the few I already hold as proofs.
I made them sit behind me with Grace, Neal, Reynolds, Hannah, and Charlie sitting respectively behind each other in a straight line.
"Break through." I commanded Erebus in a low growling voice and Erebus shot out towards the empire.
[Hurry up!] I commanded inwardly, the command just now was directed at the "Veil" to whom I, my original self, had given a very important mission to.
And Erebus, who was pushing himself down, off of the floating island began to run mid-air, lunging himself forward, faster and faster, the beautiful scenery in front of me changed continuously due to his speed, which had already reached to a level of breaking through the sound barrier.
Isha's scent infiltrated my senses, which I wasn't able to realise until it was too late. My vision, that covered almost 180° began to darken and soon nothing entered my sight nor did I hear anything from I surroundings, except for Isha's broad but small figure and her rhythmic breathing sounds that overwhelmed and engulfed my senses, she soon glanced at my face and smiled beautifully and nudged me with her shoulder, since I could tell that she was getting flustered, I shook my head in daze, asking her look front.
And with a smile creeping up my face, I chuckled lightly as my senses returned, only then did I notice that Erebus was now running on the ground, making his way through the broken apart buildings that were in ruins, which themed the world, apocalyptic.
Zombies rushed at Erebus, who was rushing at a speed of sound, and turned into shreds before they even understood what had happened after they rushed towards their opponents, that had extremely strong scent of blood and life engulfing then, which had made their mouths salivate.
"Ha!" I commanded and patted Erebus's back gently, but strongly enough for him to feel the urgency.
