Theo, upon entering his divine sea, saw that everything was in chaos. Kuro, Kin, and Roiyaruse went to him, while Isis was still cultivating on top of the [Dimensional Room], next to a large sphere that emanated energy.
"Theo, you are such a loving person! Whenever this happens, my cultivation speed increases a lot!" Isis, who had stopped cultivating, approached him and said with a smile.
Theo looked at the loli, Isis and said, "Well, it's not as if I wanted this to happen; I just got a fantastic chance and there was no way I couldn't take advantage of that, right?"
"Yes, I fully support you. Keep looking for people who are going through celestial tribulation and continue to steal their last attacks," Isis said with a playful smile, "Think, you would be known the world over as: Theo, the thief of heavenly tribulations."
"No, that would be a lot of work. It's not like I know where heavenly tribulation would happen." Theo was not entirely against her idea, but he could not just go around looking for cultivators who were going through a heavenly tribulation.
"Theo, if you're serious about this, I can help you, you know," Isis said with a gracious smile. "While you were with that group of cultivators, I saw that many were close to climbing to the Monarch Spiritual Realm. At least 6 of them are very close. If I help a little, it'd be easy for them to get a head start. If that happens, you can go and do what you did with that Apollo cultivator. In addition, you would get the credit, and they would be indebted to you. What do you think? Isn't it a good proposal?"
"Mm, what exactly do you intend to do, Isis?" Theo asked, "I mean, how do you plan to get them to get ahead? In my case, I don't even truly know why Apollo managed to elevate when he fought me."
"Hehe~ That is simple," Isis said with a chuckle, "I can find what is missing for them to get a head start, and you just need to help with what is missing for them. In the case of the cultivator Apollo, he needed to feel the aura of someone very powerful and then have a goal of his own."
"I see. Okay, I agree with your plan, your proposal," Theo smiled and said, "But first things first, I still need to stabilize my affinities."
"Okay, but don't be in too big a hurry; you're not in danger yet. Leave it for a few more minutes like this," Isis implored.
"Okay, I will," Theo agreed.
"Hehee~ Theo, you are the best!" Isis, with her loli body, flew and kissed Theo's face and then flew towards the [Dimensional Room] and returned to cultivating.
"Grrr. I still can't help thinking that this woman is using Boss..." Kuro murmured. Apparently, he still had an aversion to Isis. He also always complained to Theo, saying that he was bullied by her.
"That may be true, however, it's not like it's a bad thing for the Master," Kin spoke as he took the form of a golden wolf.
"Yes, she is helping me and it will help her too." Theo understood very well. He knew that Isis was actually wanting to help him and in the process, she would also benefit from it.
Another thing, Theo no longer felt so far from Isis's power. If before he thought it was a gigantic mountain that was impossible to climb, now he thought that although it was very big, he could still climb that mountain; it would only be a matter of time before he managed to do that.
While Theo's consciousness was in his divine sea, outside, the vortex continued to cause a whirlwind.
"Isn't Theo taking his time to stabilize his affinities?" Shina murmured doubtfully.
"Maybe he has some purpose for doing that." Zaika, who was a hired beast, had a strong connection with Theo, and she kind of felt that Theo was taking his time on purpose.
"Yes, I agree on that, since the last time it looked even worse. However, Theo didn't take this long to stabilize that time." Yuki agreed with what Zaika said.
"Okay, we just have to wait," Mizuki said.
After that, although they sometimes looked in the direction of Theo, the girls voted to meditate or train their movement and attack techniques.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWithin Theo's divine sea, Theo, who was sitting with his legs crossed, looked in Isis's direction and said, "It is good already, right? I will start to stabilize my cultivation and affinities."
"Yes, I have already benefited a lot, thanks," Isis's sweet voice echoed.
Theo then began to use his will while meditating and forced his affinities that were out of control to stabilize. When before it looked like a big storm that could sink even the biggest and strongest ships, gradually it had started to become calm.
Minutes later, Theo stood up as he murmured, "Phew! This was very productive. My lineage has increased a little too."
Isis in her loli form appeared once again in front of Theo and said, "I don't stop surprising myself. After all, before you were not even a Divine Beast, but with the increase of your lineage, you managed to rise and become a Divine Beast. It makes me hopeful to know what would happen if you continue to increase... What's next?"
"I also have no idea about that," Theo admitted. He didn't even know he was going to turn into a Divine Beast, and if he was ever going to become anything more than that, it was hard for him to guess.
"I'm going out. See you later, Isis." Theo said with a smile.
"Okay, after I go out and meet those cultivators, I'm going to help you find what's missing from them." Isis said before turning into a beam of light and returning to the form of a giant blue cat.
Theo opened his eyes and saw that his power was much stronger. He opened his status and saw:

'Mm, this reminds me that I need to buy more spiritual growth stones for my noble spirits,' Theo murmured in his mind. He also thought that he should concentrate on increasing his proficiency in his attack and movement technique.
"Theo, I made some snacks! Come and eat with us?" Shina walked up to him the moment she saw that he stopped cultivating.
"Yes, right away." Theo went to her, and wrapped his hands around her waist, making her cry out shyly, but she didn't reject his advance; she even closed her eyes, standing on tiptoe.
Theo kissed Shina's soft lips. It was kind of addictive. He kissed her for a few minutes, but when he saw that he was getting too excited, he stopped.
Shina had a dreamy look as she gazed at Theo.
