A sea of blood, as far as the eye can see. Corpses piled up like towering mountains, with cries, screams, pleas, and suffering clearly audible.

A woman with her head bowed and panting heavily. She has many wounds, with blood covering her entire body. The sword she holds is used as support to keep her balance.

"Hah... Hah... Hah..."

'Mother... It seems I will be joining you soon... Leston, I hope you're doing well.'

In the silence, she seems to shed tears from both her cheeks.

"As expected from a Chaos Creator. You truly inherited power directly from your father, Rimuru!"

Ignoring what her enemy is saying, she continues to cry silently with some regrets.

Her teeth chattering, her eyes already teary, her whole body trembling violently.

"Forgive me, Veldanava... I can't promise to return to you. I hope you will take care of and guide Velzard properly."

She no longer has any strength left in her body. How long has Rimuru been fighting these rebellious gods? A day? A week? A month? A year? She can't be sure.

Her only regret is that she won't be able to see her younger sibling hatch. Are they doing okay without her? Can Veldanava take care of her sibling and navigate this chaotic universe? But it's okay, right? – She thought.

Veldanava had something special from birth: the body of a celestial emperor. He possessed physical defenses that were extremely difficult to breach, even his father secretly coveted that power. If this rebellion hadn't happened and the days had remained peaceful, perhaps Veldanava's imperial body would have been stolen by his father.

That's her regret now; she wanted to join Veldanava and protect him again. But reality is different. She never expected this battle to consume so much time.

Slowly, she lifted her head, looking back at all the remaining enemies. Her golden eyes shone coldly, with no trace of emotion in their depths. Until she recognized someone.

Her previously cold expression now looked at them with shock. Her golden eyes widened with trembling hands and a body shaking violently.

How could she not recognize them? They are Rimuru's second and third older siblings.

With millions of troops behind them, her older sister Marinda smiled sweetly at Rimuru.

"Little sister, are you still not giving up?"

Unable to speak, Rimuru's eyes were blank. Her body trembled more, her breath heavy, cold sweat pouring down from her head. Trembling, her mouth slowly opened.

"Y-you..."

Sirius, or her third older brother, threw something to Rimuru. There was a bloodstain on the cloth.

Rimuru's hand slowly reached for the cloth and unfolded it.

"No... No... No... This can't be..."

Her tears flowed freely; she still couldn't accept the reality before her.

"You will share the same fate if you continue to rebel, Rimuru. Come, take my hand and join me. We will live happily."

It was Sirius extending his hand from afar. He had always liked his sister, with unmatched beauty. No man could ever think of not wanting to marry a woman like that.

Meanwhile, Marinda clicked her tongue at her sister's behavior.

Her eyes still wet, Rimuru clung tightly to what was before her. Her sobs were unceasing, as if ignoring everything. She continued to cry while hugging her first older brother's head tightly.
