Such a ridiculous yet blissful farewell was quite a thrill, even for Madoka, who, in the multiverse domain, could already traverse the histories of many worlds.
What reassured her the most was that when she woke from her slumber, Su Mo and Homura were still by her side.
The divine realm of the Silver Garden was timeless and undisturbed by outsiders, making it the perfect main battlefield.
No one in this world would probably have imagined that God Madoka and Homura Akuma, who were supposed to be opposites, were actually on such good terms in private.
After Su Mo left, Madoka lazily lay on the bed and scrolled through the chat group. As expected, Su Mo's movements had sparked another round of discussion in the group.
Shiroyasha: "Hahaha, Su Mo is back again! I knew our place was the most suitable stage for him!"
Shiroyasha had always been incredibly confident in her own strength and the upper limit of her world. Among all the heavens and myriad worlds, how many could have a higher or even equal upper limit to Little Garden?
Kanae: "I'm so envious of Lady Shiroyasha. A weak world like ours has nothing to offer to help Lord Su Mo."
Kanae was expressing her thoughts with complete sincerity, however...
Shiroyasha: "Shut up, you homewrecker!"
Erica: "Shut up, you homewrecker!"
Rin Tohsaka: "Shut up, you homewrecker!"
In the eyes of the other two, her words were definitely a flex. After all, although Kanae's world had no special features, she and her sister were quite the special features themselves! Not to mention, they had even succeeded in their "ascension"!
Seeing the rare sight of the chat group united against a common enemy, Madoka rubbed her full little belly and dared not speak. Fortunately, no one in the group made any connections or questioned her.
Rin Tohsaka: "Although Kanae is humblebragging, I have to say, Little Garden is indeed enviable. The same goddess divinity is three-digits there, while in our world it's only five-digits, or even less in a Servant state."
As a magus, she envied the unique power system of Little Garden.
Rin Tohsaka: "But speaking of which, didn't Lord Su Mo say before that Madoka's world also has multiverse-level potential and an upper limit?"
Rin Tohsaka: "If that's the case, there might be quite a few Cosmology's comparable to Little Garden."
Before, they would have used a special power system to anchor a world's level and value. But after witnessing Su Mo's actions in the world of Black Bullet, they had to admit that as long as one's realm was strong enough, even the most ordinary world had a single-universe-level upper limit.
This was determined by the characteristics of the universe itself; it was just a matter of whether an individual could benefit from it.
Hearing Rin Tohsaka's words, Shiroyasha shook her head pretentiously.
Shiroyasha: "NONONO! You're overthinking it. Being able to gain single or even multiverse-level inspiration from an ordinary world is something only Su Mo can do."
Shiroyasha: "And even if the upper limit can reach the multiverse level, it doesn't mean you're actually qualified to touch it."
Shiroyasha: "You all know about our world. Although there are multiverse-level existences, it's just the Wind of Decadence, a half-step single-digit, stuck there. If we can't get rid of it, we can't ascend to the multiverse domain. And if we can't ascend to the multiverse domain, we can't get rid of it."
Shiroyasha: "In this situation, the multiverse domain is just an illusion that no one can grasp. It might as well not exist."
Shiroyasha: "Although I don't know the specific structure of Madoka's world, since even Little Garden can only do so much, their world probably isn't much better."
Shiroyasha: "To reach the so-called, possibly non-existent, upper limit in one go is almost impossible! Even for Su Mo, the best way to ascend is to come to Little Garden."
Shiroyasha spread her hands, genuinely expressing her opinion.
She wasn't looking down on Madoka's world. It was just a mindset.
If even Little Garden, a world teeming with Asura and Buddhas, couldn't produce another proper single-digit existence, what right did Madoka's universe of magical girls playing house have to touch that level?
Erica: "That's true."
Erica: "Actually, my world also has a multiverse-level structure, but in terms of power limit, it's far from Little Garden."
Even if she didn't want to admit it, Erica had to. The difference in resource limits between worlds was a given and could not be changed by human effort.
Erica: "However, if we're talking about Lord Su Mo, then pretend I didn't say that."
She then added another sentence. This wasn't to negate what she had said before, but merely to add a condition. The resource difference between worlds could not be changed by human effort.
So, one just had to transcend human intellect. Coincidentally, Su Mo had always been very good at surprising them in such matters.
Shiroyasha: "That's true."
To ascend to a two-digit existence in such a short time and absorb the entire Christian god-group, she couldn't find a second person even if she looked through all of history.
Shiroyasha: "But even so, ascending to the multiverse is not that simple! Didn't Su Mo say so himself? To ascend to the multiverse domain, you have to first accumulate experience with the Cosmology in various worlds... In novels and manga, this would be the classic training arc. It definitely won't be fast! It should take at least two and a half years, right?"
Two and a half years to ascend from a two-digit to a single-digit existence.
Based on Su Mo's past promotion record, Shiroyasha's judgment was undoubtedly too conservative. But according to the common sense of Little Garden, her judgment was ridiculously radical.
If word got out, probably the entire Little Garden, including the Dual Goddesses who trusted her most, would treat it as a joke.
Ascending to a single-digit existence in two and a half years? If such a thing were possible, then the two-digit beings might as well not live. Even the Wind of Decadence would be too ashamed to live on.
After all, as the embodiment of Little Garden's eschatology, the Wind of Decadence had been a half-step single-digit since its birth and had not changed at all. At that level, time had no meaning.
However, for the chat group, Shiroyasha's statement was too typical.
Rin Tohsaka: "Gasp, this plot feels familiar!"
Rin Tohsaka: "If Lady Shiroyasha hadn't emphasized it so much, I wouldn't have thought anything of it. I would have thought the same as you."
Rin Tohsaka: "But since you keep saying it, I feel like a classic face-slapping plot is about to be triggered."
Rin Tohsaka: "Wait, let me investigate first!"
As an old member of the group, Rin Tohsaka's keen intuition told her that things couldn't be that simple.
Hearing her words, Shiroyasha was stunned. She had witnessed the miracles Su Mo had created several times, so she naturally understood what Rin meant. It's just that...
Shiroyasha: "No matter what, this is an unprecedented single-digit existence. Su Mo has only visited two worlds to investigate. Even if a classic plot is triggered, it can't be this fast, right?"
She still couldn't believe this possibility.
And hearing her words, even March 7th couldn't sit still.
March 7th: "Lady Shiroyasha, don't you think that the more you say this, the more it sounds like you're setting up a flag?"
Hearing March 7th's retort, even Shiroyasha herself couldn't sit still. Just as she was about to click on Su Mo's page to check his information, Rin Tohsaka had already returned.
Rin Tohsaka: "...Ah, it actually happened..."
Shiroyasha: "?!"
Kanae: "?!"
March 7th: "?!"
