God Simulator: The Goddesses In The Simulation Are All Real

[As you discussed your next steps with Evangeline, she nodded in agreement. "I'll do my best," she said earnestly. "But as you mentioned, I won't force it if I can't… although…"]

[Her voice grew darker, and a yandere-like expression crossed her face as her eyes gleamed with a dangerous intensity. "If I can't bring you back, I'll just kill myself. If you're dead, there's no point in me living either."]

[You blinked, taken aback by her sudden shift in tone.]

[Before you could address her rather alarming statement, a loud crash reverberated through the stronghold.]

[The ground beneath you shook violently.]

[Hellhound's voice boomed through the hall, "Come out and face me, Uncrowned Emperor! Hiding behind a woman? How low can you fall?"]

[You exchanged a quick glance with Evangeline, who nodded. "Let's go," you said, making your way to the hall.]

[As you approached the hall, you could sense the tension building. The Solstice Family patriarch stood there, visibly shaken, while Hellhound stood at the center, his massive Cerberus Zenith avatar snarling beside him.]

[Hellhound's eyes gleamed with disdain as he spotted you.]

["The great Uncrowned Emperor, protector of the world… now reduced to guarding some weak woman," Hellhound sneered. "How pitiful. Have you really fallen this low?" His words dripped with mockery.]

[You didn't respond, much to Hellhound's annoyance. He frowned and said, "Ignoring me, huh? You think you're above me?"]

[Hellhound lunged at you, his Cerberus avatar growling and charging forward with vicious force. Instead of summoning your own avatar, you simply activated your purple-grade Social Distancing talent.]

[Cerberus lunged… only to stop two meters short of you, snarling and snapping at the empty air.]

[Hellhound's expression turned from rage to confusion as his avatar's attack was completely nullified by an invisible barrier.]

["What the—?" Hellhound muttered in disbelief. "What kind of joke is this?!"]

[You chuckled. "Social distancing. Heard of it? Might save your life someday." You couldn't help but grin at the absurdity of the situation.]

[Hellhound roared in frustration, but before he could launch another attack, you decided to end it.]

[With a flick of your hand, you summoned your invisible tentacles, and in an instant, they pierced through Hellhound's body.]

[Hellhound's eyes widened as he gasped in shock, his body frozen. You activated your existence erasure ability, and slowly, Hellhound's form began to fade.]

["W-What's happening…?" Hellhound croaked as his existence was wiped clean. You made sure that only you, Evangeline, and the Solstice Family would remember him.]

["Goodbye, Hellhound," you said, your voice cold.]

[With Hellhound erased, Cerberus whimpered and vanished as well. No longer bound to Hellhound's revival ability, the avatar was unable to return.]

[As Hellhound disappeared completely, thirteen avatar crystals dropped to the floor where he once stood. You collected them, storing them in your space storage with a casual flick of your hand.]

[The Solstice Family patriarch, still recovering from the shock, stepped forward with an ornate box. "Here," he said, presenting it to you.]

["This contains the avatar crystal we promised as a reward for the bodyguard task. As for the other rewards…" The patriarch glanced at Evangeline and smirked. "I believe my daughter can handle that. I'll leave you two alone." He gestured to the servants, who quickly exited the hall, leaving you and Evangeline in privacy.]

[Once they left, Evangeline took your hand and smiled. "Come on," she said, pulling you along once again. "Let's go back to my room. We were interrupted earlier, but now we've got what we need."]

[You followed her back to her room, where she gestured for you to sit on her bed.]

[You took out the fourteen avatar crystals—thirteen from Hellhound and one from the Solstice Family—and began the absorption process while Evangeline stood guard.]

[The process was smooth, your godhead absorbing the energy from the crystals with ease. One by one, the crystals merged into your soul and into your godhead, the power increasing steadily within you.]

[After several minutes, you finished absorbing the crystals, feeling the rush of divine energy flowing through your body. You now had 123 avatar crystals and 7 celestial crystals. Only Evangeline's seven avatar crystals remained for you to achieve Ascendence.]

[Evangeline watched you with a smile. "You're so close," she whispered. "Only seven left."]

["Yeah," you agreed, standing up from the bed. "Only seven… and then it begins."]

[She chuckled softly. "I'll protect you while you absorb mine. Then, we'll take on whatever's next together."]

[Evangeline summoned her avatar, the Frost Goddess Divine Clothing, her ethereal attire that radiated power and elegance.]

[The winter crown on her head shimmered with frosty gemstones, and the ice scepter in her hand pulsed with cold energy. Her frost-covered battle dress rippled as she moved, sending a chill through the air.]

[With a deep breath, Evangeline focused inward, summoning the seven avatar crystals embedded within her soul.]

[A faint blue light surrounded her as the crystals began to emerge, each glowing with a soft, frosty light. As they left her, her aura weakened slightly, but her resolve remained unwavering.]

[She held the seven glowing crystals in her hand, offering them to you. "Here, take them," she said, her voice unwavering. "I'll be alright."]

[You nodded, accepting the crystals and feeling the weight of their power. With one final glance at Evangeline, who stood vigil, you began the process of absorbing the crystals.]

[One by one, the avatar crystals dissolved into your soul, each one sending a surge of energy that caused the godhead within you to pulse with power.]

[The air around you began to ripple as the energy from the crystals intensified.]

[Soon, you had absorbed six crystals, leaving only one remaining.]

[Evangeline, noticing your slight hesitation, smiled softly. "You've come this far, Linsley. I know you'll succeed."]

[With her comforting assurance, you focused on the final avatar crystal.]

[As you absorbed it, the energy around you erupted in a blinding light, causing the entire room to shake.]

[The walls seemed to tremble, and a powerful surge of divine energy spread outwards, affecting the environment like a shockwave.]
