Before beginning the ritual, I had carefully gathered many other ingredients other than what the Gods had given to me. Alongside Kaggoth's carapace and flesh, alongside the souls of several Divine Beasts and their corpses, there were also various other materials that I added myself, such as a one-meter pile of my horns, bones, nails, and fangs.

Of course, there were also a few of my Slime Clones, alongside a pile of living slimes that I had just summoned. There were also several body parts of many water attribute monsters found in Kaggoth's dungeon. My blood was also added into the mix, I generously gave away one liter of it without much problem.

Hydros seemed troubled, as she thought that a body made with so many materials might end up too big. However, it was not really the case, as this ceremony often compacted the materials a lot when the body was generated.

Aside from some of the slime properties, there were also added several pieces of magic technology into it, such as prototype transformation rings and bracelets, alongside several of my Magic Orbs and Wisdom Orbs, which were able to charge large amounts of power, and even generate it.

With Amiphossia's help, I also packed around one hundred different ghosts inside a crystal ball, which would also be used into the mix, to see what we can get.

Alongside all of this, not only Kaggoth helped with materials from her own body but also most of the Gods, Hydros could be said to be incredibly lucky to have so many materials for her new body! I am sure that she will end up extraordinarily strong.

But Hydros seemed to doubt.

"Err… I know that I should not regret things now… But Kireina-sama… Isn't this a bit too much?" she asked.

"You shouldn't worry about anything, even if it fails and it becomes a grotesque vessel, you can always leave it behind and we can try again tomorrow," I said.

Unlike most mortal beings aside from specific entities such as undead or spirits, Gods were capable of changing around physical bodies with extreme ease, this was because it could be considered that their Divine Souls were their real bodies and selves, while their physical bodies were considered as more like an 'equipment' although it was also very essential for their strength and growth… And well, most of them were very attached to it as it was the same body they always had since mortality.

If the new physical body were to fail, it could be possible for Hydros to detach herself from it and wait for a new body… although it will be harder than other times. It would be harder because through this ritual and by using my Divine Soul and Divine Aura as the fuel of the magi circle, I will be forcing Hydros' body to converge with the physical body, creating a better harmony within the two… Of course, it can still be detached, but it might end up hurting Hydros a bit.

Well, I am sure that it will work, and even if the resulting body is not like Hydros wanted, I can shape it around through my abilities.

"That's… it is true. I suppose I should stop doubting you, Kireina-sama, you're so nice with me…" said Hydros, as she filled herself with some more vigor, entering the large magic circle where all the materials were carefully positioned.

"It's about to begin… Demon Eyes of Appraisal!" said Redgaria, as his crimson eyes suddenly flashed out with a mysterious hue.

"Demon Eyes of Appraisal? What's new" I said.

"Oh… Yeah, I unlocked them after changing Classes and modifying my eyes with those of demons and vampires," said Redgaria.

"Interesting… I might have to eat your eyes" I said.

"Don't joke like that… It's hard to tell when you're serious about doing something ridiculous…" muttered Redgaria.

"Hahaha! Come on, it was just a little joke, don't you like to tease others too? …Very well then, Hydros, sit tight…" I said, as I began to infuse my Divine Soul and Divine Aura into the magic circle.

"Ah! This is… Kireina-sama's Divine Aura and Divine Soul!" said Hydros with fascination.

My Divine Soul and Divine Aura converged together into a mass of various colors, and ethereal energy of strange and bizarre properties that began to flow through the entirety of the magic circle. I then infused more of my Mana and Soul Energy as well. 

The magic circle began to glow with iridescent colors and dark colors, as a small semi-transparent dome appeared over Hydros, resembling the shape of an egg, and encapsulating the materials and the god inside.

Black electricity began to spark alongside black fire, as the process of combination and generation of a new body began.

"Uwaaaaaahh!" groaned Hydros in surprise and perhaps a bit of pain.

"Bear with it, Hydros… Also, make sure to materialize your ideal body within the new vessel, just think about it inside of your mind constantly!" I said.

"Y-Yes…!"

Spark! Spark!

The circle kept exuding powerful energy as black lightning, flames, and small explosions of these two continued to occur in a range of two meters surrounding the circle. Of course, I wasn't affected by it as much, but the rest of the people with me stepped back around ten meters.

This magic circle was created through the combination of many of my Skills infused within them alongside several spells. Amongst such Skills and Spells, there were Forced Evolution Induction, Flesh Manipulation, Blood Manipulation, Armor Combination, several egg-laying Skills that also helped in the formation of a body if adjusted enough, mutation induction, and so on. I was also infusing great amounts of Life Energy through my Root of Life Magic.

Spark! Spark!

"Ooh?! Just how many Skill effects and Spells did you infuse into the magic circle, Kireina?!" asked Redgaria.

"Many, a lot of the ones that could help, such as the binding of flesh, the combination of souls, the combination of ethereal and flesh, the enhancement of them, the induction of the mutation, the fusion of flesh, separation of flesh, and combination of flesh, the transformation of anything into slime, and vice versa, alongside the forced evolution induction… and so on, it is perhaps even more advanced than any other I've ever made before. I am getting quite good at Ritual Magic," I said.

"Is that even Ritual Magic at this point? You've already revolutionized it and improved upon it, something that many sorcerers amongst the Realm of Vida and perhaps the whole world of Genesis have barely done through thousands of years… It is all thanks to your unique abilities, I suppose… I wonder if there is a God of Rituals, perhaps he might be better than you…" said Redgaria.

"Oh? I would like to taste him if he were to exist…" I said, glancing back to the ritual as the sparks of black lightning and the explosions of black fire became less intense. Hydros groans became dimmer as her voice was slowly sounding differently.

The 'egg' made by my Divine Aura and Divine Soul began to crack, as light emerged from within.

Crack, crack!

Flash!

"Ahhh… I feel… So… new!" said Hydros, her voice now sounding like that of a seductive mature woman.

The different colored lights dissipated as her new physical body was revealed… and it was, well, quite something.

"Oh? What is this feeling? That presence…" muttered Redgaria.

"Ah, her body is quite pretty despite having been made with so many different materials!" said Izumi.

"This is it!" said Charlotte.

Hydros' new physical body resembled a humanoid mature woman, her size, however, was a few centimeters over two meters, she was quite tall. Her skin was of a clear bright blue, similar to the sea itself.

She possessed wide hips that made her appearance alluring and provocative, and her chest was also quite generous.

Hydros' new body also had one single eye, similarly to cyclops, which was crimson colored with several blue hues. Her hair was azure-colored with several crimson strands, which extended all the way to her feet, the hair seemed to move by itself, resembling the tentacles of squids or octopus.

All across her body, she had many golden markings, depicting several sea creatures. Hydros' new body had four arms, the two upper arms had a hard, red-colored crab-like exoskeleton starting from her elbows, which ended in large crab claws, most likely being capable of tearing through things with ease.

The other two arms below the claws seemed more 'normal', although they were covered in blue-colored fish-like scales starting from the elbows as well and having one-centimeter-long horns made out of sapphire-like jewels. Her nails in such hands were long and black colored.

She also had a fish-like tail surging from atop her round and bouncy butt. Her legs seemed streamlined, but had fish fins around the knees, while the nails were as long and black-colored as the ones in her second pair of arms, although there were no fish-scales in these areas, her legs looked smooth and soft, and her thighs could probably easily asphyxiate someone.

Hydros had pointed ears that ended in fish-like fins too, and also a few gills in her beautiful neck. In her forehead, there was a small, three-centimeters long horn made out of the same sapphire-like jewel.

"It is done… This body form…! It is really streamlined, despite the obvious chimeric parts, it seems quite professionally sculped… Good job, Kireina-sama" said Izumi.

"We need a few flesh, blood, bones, and other things extractions, for experiments, of course!" said Redgaria.

Hydros glanced at her own body as she suddenly smiled, showing her sharp, shark-like teeth.

"This… Is this my new body? I cannot believe it! These wide hips! Aaahhh~ A-And my voice too?! And these enormous breasts! Oh my! I am… really a woman now?!" asked Hydros with surprise and happiness.

"Do you look as you wanted to look like? And you're more like both… but yeah, your appearance is mostly female" I said.

"Yes, Kireina-sama! Ah- Wait, both?" asked Hydros, glancing down below as she noticed that there was another member aside from her vagina…

"Uuhh… Huh…" she muttered.

"I am sure that through your new slime-like properties, you can actually modify if you want to show both or only one of your preferences," I said.

"R-Really?" she asked.

"Yes, try it out," I said, as Hydros concentrated on the task given, her flesh slowly turned into an aquamarine slimy substance, shaping itself as her second gender suddenly disappeared…

"Now I am truly a woman!" she said with happiness, her beautiful scarlet eye shining brightly.

"Indeed, do you feel anything else though? How strong are you? Can you use some new abilities?" I asked.

"A-Ah… I think… I can do this?" said Hydros, as out of nowhere, her aura expanded around her body as a full exoskeleton armor covered her entire body, it seemed to be crab-themed, but it was completely metallic.

"Oh! That's the Transformation Ring effect?! It even inherited that!" said Redgaria.

"Transformation Ring…? Yes, I believe that this power might be of good use to serve Kireina-sama…" said Hydros. 

"Don't you feel tired? As you are a god, right?" I asked.

"I would like if you could call me goddess from now on… But no, I think I do not feel any fatigue, Kireina-sama" said Hydros.

"Goddess… I suppose you are truly a girl, just as you wanted… Congratulations? I guess," I said with a smile.

"Y-Yes! N-No, Kireina-sama… Now that I have a body like this… wouldn't you want to… t-to try it out?" asked Hydros.

"Try it out…? Ah, so this is what you were planning?" I asked as Hydros had already moved near me with a blush on her face, completely ignoring everyone else.

"It would be interesting to know if that new body can bear children…" muttered Charlotte with a perverted smile at my side.

"Wait, you're going too far now! I just met her two days ago! Sorry, Hydros. You're really beautiful, but I would like to know you more in detail about anything… else. I have been considering a lot my decisions up until now, and hastily taking girls into my bed is not a priority now that I feel like I've matured my mind a bit… I believe that before anything, forging a good relationship should be the priority as of now" I said.

"Ah… K-Kireina-sama! You are so romantic… I see! Very well then! Now that I can live once more in the mortal realm, I will stick at your side until you feel like our relationship is enough!" said Hydros.

"…You didn't get it that well, huh? Anyways, it would be nice to see the full extent of your capabilities…" I said.

Indeed, I believe that Hydros acquired way more abilities than she thought.
