[All Evolution Requirements have been met, please choose an Evolution Option.]
[…]
There were three options, but only one truly fit with me right now.
An evolution that quite fit one of my recent Fused Skills, and that also could fit very well with these star powers.
I chose it without hesitation, and while I ascended, I also evolved, creating a bright gold cocoon around my body.
"I have to hurry…"
As I changed and evolved anew, I simply couldn't stop thinking about my family that were at the other side of Abyss, fighting.
I was going to save them, no matter what.
Please, wait for me a little bit more, only a couple minutes.
I'll get there right away!

The landscape of Abyss had been changing constantly, from the cracks above the sky to the entire ground below burning and then being covered by countless bright, spirit crystals.
The opened Dimensional Cracks that led to the Spiritual Plane and Genesis created a new Era to Abyss, one where countless foreign element constantly descended.
And also an Era where the Outer Gods began to invade every inch of it, as not only there were Portals going towards the Spiritual Plane and Genesis, but also to the Outer Plane.
RUMBLE!
As the swirling, chaotic skies rumbled with rainbow, crimson, and black lightning made out of the chaotic new energies and elements invading the skies of Abyss, a battle right below these clouds happened.
An immense battle between Genesis' most powerful Gods against the aberrations that had spawned due to the constant mix between worlds and planes.
The rivalries of old gods, of traitors and of those that wanted to save their friends that ended stranded in other worlds, and the chaotic gate that sent them all here.
"Hahhh… Hahhh…"
A beautiful azure-colored goddess with rainbow-colored eyes, whose body was completely made out of bright, blue, and rainbow-colored slime floated above the skies, constantly intercepting several blows with everything she had.
"GRUOOOHHH!"
A gigantic aberration, a chimeric beast composed of bright spirit crystals and covered with miasmic tentacles and red eyes roared back at her, both clashing and making the entire world tremble.
The chimeric aberration, with the head of a goat, a cat, a dragon, and a rabbit roared furiously, its tentacles opening giant crimson eyes, firing deadly beams.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The goddess rapidly evaded, creating mirror-shaped barriers that she attempted to use to reflect the damage, which worked almost barely, though most of the time, they broke into pieces.
"Dammit! Even after fusing with the other Slime Girls, I can't get to the level of this thing!" the slime girl sighed.
"Rimuru, watch out!"
A beautiful, purple-skinned lamia goddess appeared in front of Rimuru, swinging her giant axes and clashing against the incoming crystalline claws, empowered with cosmic miasma.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
"Ugh…!"
However, the immense power of the monstrosity overpowered even her, pushing her away as it swung its massive tail, slamming her and Rimuru.
CRAAASH!
"Aaagh!"
"Nesiphae!"
Rimuru grabbed Nesiphae with her slime body, pushing her away and bouncing away with as much strength as she could, the titanic chimera chasing them.
"You damn thing! Free our friends already!"
A gold-skinned cyclops titan emerged behind the beast, transforming into thunder, and moving at lightning speed as she swung her gigantic golden club at it.
BAAAM!!
"GGRRHHH!"
However, it seemed futile, the monstrosity was incredibly durable, even their mightiest blows only left tiny cracks behind.
"SHAAAH!"
One of the monster's snake tails opened, unleashing a breath attack, and sending the cyclops titaness away several hundreds of meters.
BOOOM!
"Dammit, Brontes, don't be reckless!"
A hand made of shadows and void captured Brontes in time before she was to fall into the pool of deadly, living miasma that was constantly absorbing anything and turning it into a monstrosity.
"B-But Zehe! Are you implying we have to run away?! After getting so far!" Brontes protested. "We must do something!"
"I am simply saying it would be a… Well, a tactical retreat? The kids and the other teams are far away, we should quickly regroup with them first!" said Zehe, flying across the skies to pick up the rest with her shadow hands. "That monstrosity might have captured our Chimera friends, but we can't free them for now! And even… Kireina's doppelganger already died to save us from that thing! Do you want to waste her sacrifice?!"
"B-But…! I don't want to leave behind our friends!" Brontes protested, gritting her teeth.
"I know but- Ah!"
"ROOOAAARRR!"
Their conversation was interrumpted when something else arrived, yet another of those gigantic, crystalline spiritual monsters, further mutated with miasmic chaos created by the Outer Gods.
It resembled a gigantic, three-headed wolf!
"Shit, the second is here already!" Nesiphae said. "Girls, we gotta get out of here already!"
"Dammit, Wagyu…!" cried Rimuru, as she saw the gigantic monstrosity chasing them, the four quickly regrouped, seeing their friend now turned into a monster.
"We have to find the real Kireina and- Don't fuck with me…"
Zehe's eyes widened as she despaired. Yet another one emerged, one surging from the underground, breaking the ground and roaring.
This one not only had spiritual energy and miasmic chaos, but even… vampiric power, as it had devoured countless vampiric beasts it saw inside a forest nearby.
It resembled a giant titan made of green, gold, red, and black crystals, encompassed mostly of a miasmic, cosmic black wood, overflowing with the power of…
A Supreme Goddess from Genesis!
"F-Flora?" Rimuru cried. "So even she… Dammit, let's run! Quickly!"
However, it was too late, surrounded from all sides, and with the sky rumbling as more creatures approached, was there any other route than to fight?
Yet…
FLAAASH!
A flash of blinding golden light surged, blinding the beasts, and forcing them to step back, their skin burning and decaying, falling down.
The girls looked into the sky, gasping in disbelief. Her figure appeared, that of a beautiful fairy!
"K-Kireina-sama?!" Rimuru's bright rainbow eyes shone brightly in happiness.
"You took your damn time…" Zehe sighed.
"It's her?! It is!" Nesiphae celebrated.
"She's… different now," Brontes said.
