"I have an idea."
"What is it?"
"It will take two things which will take a crapload of mana, but you'll both be so much stronger."
"What is it?!"
"It would probably-"
"GOSH DANG IT WOMAN, WHAT IS THE IDEA?!"
Hades' shout caught me off guard, and Asmodeus smirked.
"Alright, I'll tell you."
They leaned in.
"I'm going to try to make you two angels again, then I'll make proper bodies for you to inhabit."
They blinked.
Luma blinked.
Sona blinked.
…
"How the heck do you expect to make them angels?"
"Well, that is their species, right?"
Asmodeus started stuttering.
"W-w-well yeah it is, b-b-but we lost our grace and our blessings."
"Yeah, you can't just return it."
"Then I'll make you new ones."
Everyone blinked.
Then Luma sighed.
"Rose, you can't just-"
[System command processed. Creating, Angel's Grace (Bottled).]
"It appears I can just."
I held up the bottled grace and smiled.
Everyone, including Luma, just looked at me in shock.
"I used a combination of System Owner and Creation to build a crafting menu modification."
"Why didn't you ask me first?!"
"I did."
"When?!"
"I sent you a notification about it and you clicked check for accept."
"Oh…"
"You thought it was an automatic thing, didn't you."
Luma blushed.
"Maybe."
"Automatic thing?"
"Luma will occasionally get things such as evolution requests or ascension requests, so she has a habit to not read and just confirm."
"So, why didn't you assume she just did that?"
"Because it also tells you who sent it."
Sona blinked.
"Luma, you're an idiot."
"I don't listen to sender because usually it's just an automatic message. Those don't have senders!"
I sighed.
"Alright, next time, I'll confirm with you, in person."
"Thank you."
"Anyways that is a pretty overpowered thing, any limits?"
"I need to know how it works and what materials are used."
"… Then how did you make-"
"Archangels pretty much have their grace hanging on a stick in front of them, it was pretty easy to analyze it."
"… Why were you analyzing their graces? You didn't know you'd do this."
"I was actually trying to figure out how to break it if it became necessary."
"… oh…"
"Yeah, I did figure it out, by the way. Anyways, this one is quite similar to the original angel's grace, but it bases off of my power instead."
"Incredible."
"What's your System Owner even at?"
"6."
"Oh… Wow."
"So, can you do much else?"
"Really, I can just make new Owner level functions and change their requirement levels."
"What?"
"Theoretically, I can take the heal they have and make it Owner level."
"That's cheating."
"Precisely why I didn't do it."
"So, does it have limits?"
"Of course, I made it cost stamina to use."
"That's good… That doesn't stop you…"
"I know, but it will stop a lot of others who would abuse it."
"You are making literal grace and talking about not wanting people to abuse it."
"There's a difference, I'm not doing it for myself."
"…"
"…"
"*SIGH*"
Alright, so, who wants to test the grace."
"Test?"
"Yeah, I mean, I analyzed the original, but it's not like I could experiment with it, it only works with demons, meaning you two would be the first ones I'm trying this out with."
"Shouldn't the system still work?"
"Remember, it's based in my power, not the Ruler's. He has it perfected, Mine should be perfected but I don't know for sure."
"Eh, I'll try it, why not?"
Asmodeus reached for the grace, so I handed it to her.
"Okay, what do I do with it?"
"Drink it."
"…Okay… Bottoms up."
She drunk the whole bottle and the light was visible going down her throat, but it stopped when it reached the heart level, then it expanded.
Asmodeus started to scream. Hades started to panic but I blocked him and nodded. This was the exact same response that the shards made when I purified them.
Meaning, I had to make one more push.
{Oh, Asmodeus, take my blessing and be purified into your true self!}
My voice echoed through the room causing the other three to shiver, but Asmodeus stopped screaming.
Light shot from her eyes, nose, and mouth as she began to hover, then her bat wings reverted to feathered wings which then shook and turned into metal wings.
Her Halo reappeared, then it cracked in two and became dragon horns.
Her tail faded entirely, and nothing replaced it.
Then she fell to the ground, her hair a lot longer.
"That was dizzying."
"Asmodeus?"
"Yes?"
"What are you?"
"Hm?"
She noticed her wings and horns.
"I would say dragon, but I don't think they have metallic feathered wings."
"Asmodeus, do you mind if I try something?"
"Sure, what- AH!"
I lit her on fire. There was no effect.
Hades was smiling.
"Interesting, you are an angel again, but more durable."
"Like a Valkyrie."
"A Valkyrie?"
"Specifically, a mythological Valkyrie."
"What's the difference between them and regular Valkyries?"
"Mythological Valkyries guide souls to the death realm, and they have wings that are impervious to most weapons. They also are very deadly fighters."
"So, they aren't commanders?"
"Nope, mythological Valkyries are formed in a squad."
"Huh, that's cool. Will Hades become a Valkyrie too?"
"Nope."
"Why?"
"Valkyries are women."
"…Oh, what's the male version."
"They don't really have one, but some things call them Berserkers."
"OOOH, I like that."
While Asmodeus was admiring her new look, Hades was bugging me to make him grace, too.
"Alright, here it is."
He took it and immediately drank it.
Then he started screaming in pain.
{Oh, Hades, take my blessing and be purified into your true self!}
His screaming stopped and he underwent a similar transformation.
His halo reappeared and broke apart, but this time, it flew down to his hands and gave him claws.
His wings went through the exact same process as Asmodeus's did, but his tail was the icing on the cake.
His tail wrapped around his arms and broke off before forming into chains with massive blades at the end.
"Woah, a weapon."
"Try pulling it into you."
He reached and the blade and chains flew into him. They made his wings bigger.
"WOAH, I CAN SUMMON BLADES!!!"
"Definitely fits berserker title."
We all nodded.
Then Asmodeus looked at the blades.
"Let me try to summon a weapon."
Then she lifted her hand and a glowing spear formed in her hands.
"Woah…"
Asmodeus and Hades kept playing with their new weapons.
"Great, you're breaking things again."
"Gabriel is not going to be happy."
Luma smiled at the thought of him fuming again.
"No, no he won't be."
