NOVEL NEXT Chapter 44 Hidden Part 4
Yoko was surprised to see the Erinys bowing and calling her mistress. It's one thing to hear about from Zero but it's another thing to see it. Yoko motioned for the Erinys to stand up and she did.
"What's your name?" asked Yoko
"It's Valna Mistress." said the Erinys
"So I want to know who you served before Yoko?" asked Zero but Valna remained silent refusing the orders of anyone other than that of her mistress.
"Okay Valna I order you to answer the question of this man." ordered Yoko
"I used to serve the god of this world. He put me here to observe the one called Dracula and make sure that he suffers for all eternity." Said Valna
"Were they the ones who gave you the minor less divinity? What were your duties here?" asked Zero
"Yes, I received my divinity and the power to gain strength from war from God. My duty is to make sure that Dracula and his soulmate die in each lifetime." said Valna
"Looks like you were right." said Yoko
"I want to know if the chaos entity is God or a minion of God. Which is it? What does it do?" asked Zero
"The chaos entity was created by God same as me. It gives Dracula power but its main duty is to trap the 2 souls in an endless cycle." explained Valna
"That God is manipulating everyone. I hope I can free them without having to fight it." said a slightly angry Zero who had guessed that fact based on the memories he had from the game.
"Well we've confirmed what we need to confirm so what now?" asked Yoko
"Well you should stay here and train with Valna while I create new companions that will fight with us." said Zero
"I can train anytime I want to know that Valna's with us so shouldn't I be helping you collect souls instead?" asked Yoko
"Well something tells me we may be fighting for our lives soon so I'd like you to be ready when it occurs." explained Zero as he created a clearing without any trees for them to train.
Yoko wanted to help but she wanted to get stronger so Zero wouldn't need to interfere in any of her future fights. "Okay." she agreed and flew towards the clearing with her new servant.
As they left Zero created a portal and 18 figures walked through. They were the Curlys from the previous encounter who swore loyalty to him in exchange for their lives. Zero activated his life creation and selected the evolution option and it asked him to select 20 materials to use. He chose the 18 Curlys and chose to combine them in order to evolve them. A game-like screen appeared and asked him to select the main creature to evolve and the rest would be turned into energy to empower its body and soul. A notification appeared when he used he selected the curlys.

17 out of the 18 Curlys faded and were replaced by green orbs that flew into the remaining 1. The remaining curly roared as her size increased from 5ft to 7ft. The new curly had was larger had more defined muscles, 6 arms instead of 4, and a darker shade of skin. Zero didn't stop there he waved his arms and all the dead curly bodies and souls appeared. He proceeded to remove the soul of the new super curly and her body fell to the ground. He then fused the 352 souls into 17 superior curly souls before combining all 18 new superior souls into one. Next, he moved on to their bodies he used 352 to create 17 soulless bodies their flesh, blood, muscles, bones, nails, and even eyes were useful. He then proceeded to fuse the 18 superior Curlys into a new creature that had 8 arms and skin that looked like they were made of diamond with a dark brown glisten. He was able to do all this in one thought due to the system working the skill for him.
He had created a powerful creature but it had little magical potential so he would use it as an ingredient. Next, he did the same to all the remaining souls and bodies. Now he had 22 High Valkyries, 20 Superior Dryads, 25 Superior Alura Une, 5 High Mandragora, and 50 High-Level Succubi. He remembered that in the world of Darksiders, the union of an angel and a demon was incredibly powerful. He then decided to use 20 High Valkeries and 20 Succubi souls to merge into 2 Nephalem souls. Now that he had wanted what he needed he was ready. The only problem was that after all those fusions and mergers his mana had run dry.
After an hour of resting to recover his mana Zero began the next step. He merged the 20 Superior Dryads into a Transcendent Dryad soul. Next 20 Superior Alura Une was merged into an Anthousai soul. The remaining 5 High Mandragora 5 Superior Alura Une were merged into a Hamadryad soul. Now he had 2 Nephalem, 1 Transcendent Dryad, 1 Anthousai, and 1 Hamadryad soul.
Using 1 Nephalem, 1 Transcendent Dryad, 1 Anthousai, and 1 Hamadryad soul Zero fused them to create an enormous green sphere the size of a car. It was dense and looked like a mini-green planet filled with vegetation. Now that the soul was formed he used the 2 High Valkyries and 20 Succubi souls to evolve it even more by turning them into energy that flowed into the sphere increasing its size even more and gaining a faint glow.
Next, he teleported all the new bodies over to him and activated his artificial life creation skill. All of Zero's mana gushed forth and encased the bodies in an egg of magic. He then sent the green sphere into the cocoon along with the bodies. The magical egg began to draw in the leaves, grass, and water from around covering itself with the earth itself. This would grow into a new lifeform that he couldn't design its form. It reminded him of a gacha machine which you couldn't tell what would come out. He sat on the floor and looked as the egg grew larger and larger with excitement.

Creature Explanation:
Nephalem: The offspring of both an Angel and a Demon that possesses both demonic and angelic powers. However, users of this power will have the potential to become more powerful than either side. This is due to the fact that said spirit would be neutral and possess power from the forces of both Light and Darkness. Nephalems are thought to be the embodiment of chaos and are forbidden to be created by both heaven and hell.
Transcendent Dryad: A dryad is a tree nymph or tree spirit that is close to becoming a god or goddess. It is personified as a plant and represents the plant kingdom or an aspect of it, usually by its perceived power and strength. Dryads have always been known to be female according to myth and usually inhabit oak, although they can also be found within ash, pine, poplar, apple, and laurel trees.
Anthousai: They are nymphs and minor goddesses associated with and presiding over flowers and plant life. They were described as having hair that resembled hyacinth flowers.
Hamadryad: They are nymphs and minor goddesses associated with and presiding over their own particular trees they are physically a part of. They usually do not leave their own trees, because if they were to and something was to happen to their tree the Hamadryad would die with her tree and vice-versa. So most of these nymphs stay within their own trees their whole life.
