After I caught up to Megusan, I let Rimuru, Gaby, and Nanako get used to their new strength by ganging on it… long story short, she was utterly defeated without many problems.

She was certainly insane, and after seeing the possibilities of winning, she became even more insane and driven to despair, she tried to kill herself alongside Rimuru, but she didn't expect that my Rimuru was strong enough to even stop her reckless charge. 

Gaby and Nanako then assisted Rimuru as the three slain the Demon God's last Soul Piece, everyone was showered in large quantities of Experience Points afterward.

When we finally came back to the Light Sphinx City, the people began to kneel in horror and also gratefulness.

"Oh, Dragon Goddess, we thank you for defeating the demon!"

"Please have mercy on us, we swear that we did not know about it!"

"The Demon possessed our princess, and then indiscriminately killed the entire Royal Family inhabiting on the Castle… Even our beloved Pharaoh…!"

"Please, Great Goddess, have mercy in our Souls!"

They were all like this… but this indeed made things way easier to control.

My children accompanied by my wives descended from my back as they calmed down the quivering Light Sphinxes.

Light Sphinxes had a different appearance than the brown-skinned Shadow Sphinxes, as they had pale white skin, blue eyes, and long blonde hair, with white fur on their lower halves of great desert cats. 

Amiphossia accompanied by my Slime Clones and Rimuru, began to heal the wounded resulted from the disaster that Megusan caused when he ran away from the castle, as he had decided to completely make it crumble over the city as a distraction for me, it seems.

My daughter healed the wounds of the dying Sphinxes as they had long lost hope for surviving, their bones suddenly reattached and their mushed muscles recovered with vigor.

Amiphossia's Heavenly Medicine Magic had already reached level 10 some days ago due to its repeated use while healing the wounded, and it evolved into Miraculous Medicinal Princess Magic, which offered stronger versions of the previous spells.

Releasing white lights over the wounds, or letting people drink her special venom, she healed most of the serious-looking wounds, while my Slime Clones and Rimuru walked around healing small wounds, pains, and so on.

"Such a beautiful young lady… could you be the Goddess of Healing?"

"She must be one of the Dragon Goddess Daughters, so she is a Goddess, of course!"

"To think that there is magic capable of healing broken bones and reattach limbs! Please, Lady, teach me your ways!"

"My, my~ Thank you very much, hehe," said Amiphossia as she thanked the praises of the wounded.

Amiphossia beauty and powers quickly became very popular within the Light Sphinxes, her pure white hair and white snake tail made her seem like a holy individual for them. Amiphossia did not seem to mind, but her party, Geraldine, Seishin, Sesshomaru, and the Shirohibe did not like how clingy they were being.

"Nya! Don't be so touchy with Amiphossia-sama!" roared Geraldine, releasing small flames from her mouth alongside cold from her body.

"Grr! Growl!" roared Seishin, the Twelve Limbe Phantom Wolf, and Amiphossia's mount.

"Grawl!" added Sesshomaru, one of Amiphossia's 'tamed monsters' from the Forsaken Labyrinth, a Nine-Tailed Phantom Fox of several meters of height.

"Don't get so close to lady Amiphossia…! Or I'll curse you!" shouted Shirohibe, the former concubine of Ashura, the Yokai King. She is a Shirohibe, a Lamia-type Yokai, with a similar appearance to Amiphossia in the way she is almost completely white, with crimson eyes.

Amiphossia calmed down her party as she released the hundreds of ghosts that she stores inside of her Phantasmal Soul.

"Don't worry, they may say rude things, but they are all sweethearts! Everyone, come outside~!" She said, with the best of intentions, the dreadful ghosts that were tamed by her appeared in the city and began to assist the people.

At first, the Light Sphinxes were completely terrified to the point of fainting, but after understanding that they were just helping people out by carrying them to safety or moving away the debris created by the collapse of the Royal Castle, the people became more open-minded.

"To think that she is also a Ghost tamer!"

"Can Ghosts even be tamed, to begin with…?"

"She is without a doubt a Goddess!"

The most important leaders of the Light Sphinxes were killed, and aside from needing assistance in healing and remodeling the city, they needed a new leader to follow. I decided to use such an opportunity to 'descend' from the sky and bless a few people to make them my apostles. Vajrara, Alice, and other Vampires will help with the expansion of my religion.

The Light Sphinxes were in a vulnerable state, so it was the perfect opportunity to make them my believers. 

Flash!

With a flash of blinding light, I shapeshifted into my original form and flew through the skies, slowly descending with the flap of my wings.

"Light Sphinxes, Morpheus, your founding father has sent me here with the task to guide you all to a better future, a future of prosperity and happiness!" I said, pretending to be something similar to an angel at this point.

"Aaah! Such blinding light!"

"The Goddess has descended?!"

"Is that her human form? So, dazzling!"

"Her wings are so beautiful, shining in pink and purple colors, so exotic and alluring…!"

Of course, as I talked, I used Mirage-Attribute Spells such as Deceiving Charm, Enchanting Voice, Brainwashing, Memory Edition, Wonderful Alluring Aroma, and more. The combination of such effects of people in a state of vulnerability both physically and mentally made the whole brainwashing incredibly easy.

"Here, it is the grace of our Goddess!" said Vajrara as she shared Potions made out of blood to the wounded, her appearance was certainly ominous and terrifying for the Light Sphinx, but due to my brainwashing, she seemed like a Holy Apostle.

"Thank you very much, oh priestess!"

"Please, drink this mysterious and bubbly Potion, it will be nice for your pain," said Keenan, the Half Beast Demon Vampire, who surrendered to me and became my loyal servant, forcing a smile as he shared Potions as well.

"Mysterious…? Gulp… Uuoh! So good!"

"Or you could have this delicious Bento Box, made out of amazingly flavorful meat, rice, and the Goddess secret sauce, completely for free! It will only cost you a prayer, nothing else!" said Cassandra, the Half Succubus Vampire, which I made into my Vampire, becoming a fanatical worshiper of me. 

"Ah, I am so hungry, thank you very much… I shall offer a pray!"

"Cassandra, please don't steal all of the attention! Here you have, little girl, tell your parents to offer a prayer before eating your food!" said Caedmon, who has a Half Shadow Lord Vampire that once served Aleksandra alongside Cassandra, now he was another of my loyal servants.

"Thank you, mister," said a little Light Sphinx girl.

"Don't thank me, thank the Goddess!"

"Thank you, oh Goddess!" said the little girl, closing her hands as if praying.

"Everyone, please, offer a prayer for our Goddess, so she can feel your gratefulness! It is the only thing we ask, we don't ask for money, neither physical objects, but your most sincere of devotions!" shouted Alice, while sharing Bento Boxes and Potions everywhere.

"Thank you very much, missy!"

"These Potions are incredible, I feel anew!"

"My Stamina has completely recovered…! Even my MP?!"

"These 'Bento Boxes' are amazing! They are packed with delicious meat and rice!"

"The Goddess is so benevolent, blessing us with food and healing!"

And while doing these things, I multitasked and rebuilt the destroyed houses with the [Transcendental Element Creation and Manipulation; Golem Materialization] Skill. The pieces of stone moved and molded themselves to my will, the people saw this as even more miracles.

I then went towards the castle and remade it into a tower-like castle, while taking out the corpses of the Royal Family. I tried to look for their Souls, but they seemed to have been eaten by Megusan to nourish himself while running away.

I had planned on pseudo resurrecting them… but I had a better idea if they lacked Souls.

In front of the people, I did my best to seem as if I was healing the corpses, by touching their foreheads, but in fact, I inserted a slime-like tentacle in their heads and put a small Slime Clone, which parasitized the corpses as I did, they took over the corpses, assimilated them with [Symbiosis] and [Parasite] and then healed all wounds internally, and by parasitizing the brain, they obtained some of their original memories.

I used the Root of Life Attribute Spell Healing Life Aura and Life Infusing Breath to make the corpses seem more 'alive' and less pale and lifeless.

If they truly knew what I exactly did, the people here would freak out in horror.

Even their Pharaoh, whose body was crushed with its internal organs and bones crushed, suddenly recovered and stood up.

"Ah! I've been revived!"

"Pharaoh-sama!!!"

"Oh, Goddess! She has revived him!"

"This is… this is really the act of a Goddess!"

"Amazing! Incredible!"

"To be able to revive people…!"

"Goddess-sama, please, revive my daughter!"

"My husband died, please, revive him, I beg of you, I will offer my prayers for the rest of my life!"

"But of course, my people… please, guide me to them~," I said, as I was guided to several other corpses, which I revived similarly, their Souls had long drifted away.

Using the same means, I revived several people which were mostly forgotten by the rest aside from their closest relatives, some families died completely and were revived in the same fashion.

"Mother…?" said one of my Slime Clones, acting like the deceased little girl that die crushed by the ceiling of their crumbled house.

"Oh, my children! Snif, snif" cried her mother, as she hugged me… I mean the little girl.

The more unbelievable things I do, the more recognition I obtain, and their worships and prayers filled my soul with power and energy.

As the night fell, order and peace were finally restored in the city, but the night was far away from tranquility, as a large festivity was going on, lights flashed everywhere as stalls filled with food prepared by my Slime Clones and Vampires offered delicious preparations made with Familiar and Monsters meat.

The alluring aroma of grilled meat and the 'special sauce', which was made with my blood and other ingredients, made the citizens of the Light Sphinx city drool in hunger.

I sat down in a large throne-like seat, while the Royal Family of the Sphinxes sat down around me, of course, my own family was closer to me than them. Although the entire Royal Family were just my Slime Clones, whose minds were Split Minds created with the [Demon Overlord's Parallel Mind Processing and Brain Share] Skill.

"Mommy today was also a fun day and the food is delicious!" said Valentia, as she voraciously ate a large Giant Snake in a stick, which was grilled and then poured in the sauce.

"Big sister, I think it's the same food as yesterday…" said Aarae, as he ate fried fish with vegetables.

"I didn't know that you could revive people even without their original souls, mother…" said Amiphossia.

"Ami! Don't say that out loud, its Kireina's secret!" said Nesiphae.

"Ah, well, I can tell you how I did it tomorrow, my daughter. Tomorrow will probably be our last day in this dungeon, we will defeat the last Boss in the depths of Floor 50 and then conquer the Dungeon!"

"Yay! I'm getting bored of this place, to be honest, ~ Hoho" said Acelina, celebrating that we will finally be back in the comfy room of our castle back in my Empire.

"Haah~ I can't wait to take a warm bath in our castle, and then sleep for a whole week in the comfy bed!" said Ismena.

The two girls grew as royalty, so they had higher standards than most of my wives.

"You miss those things so much? Any place is a comfy bed for a warrior!" proudly said Oga, as she tightened her burly muscles.

"Ah, but you're a brute that grew in a literal hell, of course even the scorching sand of this dessert would be a comfy bed compared to the Lower Realm, Oga…" said Nefertiti, she also missed the comfy beds and her servants.

"What did you say?! I didn't grow in… wait, I did" muttered Oga.

"Well, I grew up as a little Squirrel inside a tree, but I also miss the comfy bed of Kireina-sama, and the large bathrooms of the castle~," said Kaguya, daydreaming, as her white squirrel ears twitched cutely.

"What?! Kaguya-chan, you were a squirrel…? Like the animal squirrel?!" asked Sofarpia, bewildered by Kaguya's carefree remark of her previous forms.

"How did it feel to have such a small body…? I wonder if it was hard for you to get used to a human body…" asked Sofelaia, joining in.

"Uueh? It wasn't anything much… I was born and then… was taught how to eat acorns… and afterward… I think I slowly learned how to use Fire Magic and killed a few lizards…! It was a very boring life until all of the ordeals with the other Emperors happened, and then Kireina-sama took me in her Kingdom" said Kaguya.

"I-I see…" said Sofarpia and Sofelaia at the same time.

"Hmm… I think it would have been very awkward to be a scorpion before a Girtablilu, thankfully I do remember always being one, but not this big though" said Nixephine as she drank a large bowl of steamy soup.

"I don't really mind sleeping anywhere… But I want to eat that boss!" said Lilith, after her evolution into an Oni-type Chaos Human, she had awakened more savage instincts, and openly talked about them more freely. Long gone are the days when she used to be quite shy. 

"I wonder if there are any materials, I could obtain from it…" said Charlotte, as her devilish tail moved around. After her evolution into a Demon-type (Succubus-type) Chaos Human, her desires and greediness had become more obsessive.

"As long as I am with Masta and Ailine, life will always be comfy!" said Rimuru, as she hugged our daughter, who was snacking on small pieces of grilled meat. She's so cute.

"Thank you Rimuru, it really means a lot to me that you think like that"

"Mastaa…"

As my wives saw how the words of Rimuru melted my heart, they also tried to say the same to get my attention. 

"I-I think the same! I don't really mind sleeping anywhere!" (Acelina)

"Me too! I don't mind! Let's sleep in the sand, Kireina!" (Ismena)

"Yeah, we were just acting overly spoiled there… We didn't mean it!" (Nefertiti)

Aaah… they are already clinging on me… Well, it makes me happy, nonetheless.

[Kireina] acquired the [Light Sphinx Savior] Title!]

[The [Kelpie Empress], [Dragon Centaur Goddess], [Shadow Sphinx Savior], and [Light Sphinx Savior] Titles merged into the Unique Title [Centaur's Race Savior Goddess]!]

[Title Explanation]

[Centaur's Race Savior Goddess]

A Title was only born after the user had gained the recognition, admiration, and worship of all Centaur races, even those lost in history like the Kelpie, Dragon Centaur, and Sphinx Centaur.

This Title grants a powerful Charm effect towards any Centaur that meets the user of the Title, no matter if they are enemies or not…

Similar to Titles such as [Chimera's Holy Mother] or [Ancient Vampire Race's Supreme Sovereign], this Title grants the ability to any centaur below the user command to easily obtain certain Skills, such as [Superhuman Strength], or different types of magic attributes.

It also grants a passive increase in their stats and their growth per level, extra gained Experience Points, better and stronger evolution choices.

It also it gives the user a sense of responsibility towards the race, perhaps this could be seen more as a negative side effect, but because Kireina already intended on making them her citizens and be protected and nurtured by her, she didn't felt any change in her mentality or her instincts.
