Soul and body overlapped, and Levi reopened his eyes.
He glanced at his character panel:
(Materialization of the Soul + Goddesses' Loving Protection, Image! Image! Image!)
[Heaven's Feel (Fragment) Ice 6-Star (-) → Materialization of the Soul 7-Star]

[Goddesses' Loving Protection · 6-Star (-) → Goddesses' Loving Protection 7-Star]
[Status Magic]
[Chant: Corresponding Goddess Name (can call multiple names simultaneously), I hereby pray to you (all), please grant me the Goddesses' Loving Protection!]
[For every Goddess who develops a favorable impression of Levi Bright, a brand new protection will be formed]
[The higher the Goddess's favorability toward Levi Bright, the stronger the magic effect correction. When reaching the highest level (V), the corresponding protection will become a Permanent Passive]
[The greater the number of Goddesses holding favorable impressions of Levi Bright, the higher the Magic Star Level]
[Currently Held Protections:]
[I. Hearth Goddess Hestia's Pure White Love V: Super-rank boost to Magic Recovery, super-rank boost to Health Recovery, super-rank boost to effects and power of Guardian-type Skills or Magic, Obtained Hearth Arcanum (Fragment) (New)]
[II. Forging Goddess Hephaestus's Inquiring Love V: Obtained Development Ability 'Swordsmith' S, super-rank boost to Fire Resistance, Obtained Forging Arcanum (Fragment) (New)]
Just as expected, the 'Heaven's Feel (Fragment)', which was originally modified from 'Magic Core (Ice)', had now officially evolved into the 7-Star Magic 'Materialization of the Soul'.
Leaving aside the fact that bonus attributes in all aspects had skyrocketed again, he had also obtained the 'Divine Power' attribute and the 'Demigod' status, thereby completely breaking free from the limits of lifespan.
In addition to this, perhaps due to the changes brought about by the materialization of the soul, or perhaps because the last bit of apprehension in Hestia and Hephaestus's hearts had disappeared, the 'Goddesses' Loving Protection'—which had the lowest star rating among the three magics Levi currently awakened—had also quietly completed its evolution.
The effects of protections at Level IV and below remained the same, but 'Hestia's Protection' and 'Hephaestus's Protection', which had just risen to Level V, brought with them a fragmentary 'Hearth Arcanum' and 'Forging Arcanum' respectively.
With a slight movement of Levi's mind, he dispelled the barrier surrounding the training field.
Hestia and Hephaestus walked up quickly.
"Levi, you finally succeeded!"
The Blue Ribbon hugged her lover's arm, her tone as excited as it could possibly be.
The red-haired Goddess also wore a smile. Raising her right hand, she took the opportunity to stroke the cheek of the person before her. "Congratulations."
Transforming from a mere mortal body into a Demigod, Levi was naturally excited as well.
However, there was one matter he still needed to confirm.
After being affectionate with the two women for a while longer, he took out the Valkyrie Class Card and silently recited, "Dreamlike Summoning."
A pillar of white light descended, followed by six Spirit Clones manifesting one after another.
In the DanMachi world, Spirits possessed very powerful spellcasting abilities, and the weapons they forged or magic items they created mostly possessed special effects.
It was precisely because of this that this race was also known as 'The alter egos of the Gods'. Many individuals among them were, from the very beginning, 'alt accounts' created by the Gods of Tenkai in the Lower World.
Originally, when he heard this saying, Levi didn't think much of it.
But after obtaining the complete version of the Third Magic—or more accurately, after unlocking the 'Divine Power' attribute—a conjecture quietly surfaced in his mind.
Levi closed his eyes. Through the magic power supply channel within his body, he called Alise to his side. She had woken up not long ago and was happily eating breakfast with her friends.
"Follow my Spirit Clone to the Dungeon. If you find a pitch-black infant dragon being born, help get rid of it."
"Huh?" Alise was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, but she didn't think too much about it. She nodded and said, "I understand."
In the blink of an eye, the girl and Thrud appeared on the 6th Floor of the Labyrinth.
However, it was somewhat unexpected.
Faced with the arrival of a Spirit possessing Divine Power, the entire Dungeon did not react.
"Boss?" Alise turned her head to look at the golden-haired girl beside her.
The latter made a silencing gesture. After waiting for about half an hour and confirming that her appearance indeed would not summon pitch-black monsters, she finally sent Alise back to the surface.
Two seconds later.
The figures of Levi and Thrud descended.
Almost instantly, sensing the aura of Divine Power, the Dungeon began to go berserk.
Levi activated his Byakugan. He easily pierced through the rock walls and 'saw' the pitch-black infant dragon being rapidly gestated not far away.
He wasn't a madman himself, and he had no interest—at least not at the moment—in testing the Dungeon's tolerance limit for Gods. After confirming that he was different from the Spirit Clones and could not perfectly restrict the Divine Power within his body to prevent even a wisp from leaking out, he teleported back to the station.
As for that pitch-black infant dragon, the moment it was born, it was slain by Thrud, who had returned a step later, turning into three dropped materials on the spot.
The pale-gold haired boy, reappearing in the training field, raised his head and looked at the former members of the Astrea Familia who had been waiting there for some time.
"I told you before that I would remove the flaw of your existence as Heroic Spirits needing to rely on my magic power supply once I found a method."
"Now, I will fulfill my promise."
Hearing their employer's words, even though they knew this day wouldn't be too far away, the girls couldn't help but reveal expressions of surprise.
Seeing everyone looking at him with anticipation, Levi didn't waste words. He immediately took out the 'Dress of Heaven Class Card' and performed a limited deployment.
Because he had already mastered the complete Third Magic, this time, the 'Materialization of the Soul' on his character panel was not forcibly changed to 'Heaven's Feel (Fragment)'.
Only at the very bottom of the sub-page, a few extra lines of chant text and related effects for the 'White Grail' domain and 'Black Grail' domain appeared.
[...]
[When forming a 'White Grail' or 'Black Grail' domain, target souls whose physical bodies are within the domain can undergo Incarnation (Can be toggled off) (New Effect)]
"White Grail, chant!"
A sea of azure magic power manifested alongside Levi's chanting of the spell, instantly covering the entire training field.
Immediately following that, a viscous liquid flowed up along the girls' calves. In less than five or six seconds, it wrapped around their entire bodies.
"Wuu~~~" x n
Although Alise and the others had been separated from the Reincarnation System of Tenkai through Heroic Spirit Summoning magic, because of the underlying rules of the DanMachi world, they were not truly Heroic Spirit bodies, but rather possessed a nature leaning more towards undead.
To put it more bluntly, if one were to use magic like 'Holy Light' or 'Purification' on them, it would often have a super-effective impact.
But at this moment, the individual attributes of the ten girls who had descended from Tenkai underwent an earth-shattering change.
Just like Levi half an hour ago, under the baptism and scouring of a massive amount of pure magic power, their souls gradually turned from intangible to tangible.
However, it was not 'Materialization of the Soul' in the true sense.
It could only be considered a successful 'Incarnation'—this point could be seen from the girls' individual panels.
They had not unlocked the 'Divine Power' attribute. It was just that compared to before, their individual Ability Stats had, without exception, all received a significant increase.
Especially Alise and Gojouno Kaguya. previously, after training their Five-dimensional Ability Stats to the SS limit, which is 1199 points, they had sought Goddess Astrea's help to raise their Falna level to Lv.5.
Having undergone the baptism at this moment, a large amount of time was directly skipped. Their lowest Ability Stats grew directly to C-rank, and the highest easily stepped into the great barrier of S-rank!
As for the other eight girls, because they were summoned later, Levi hadn't had time to help them accumulate 'Feats'.
At this moment, their Ability Stats also reached the SS limit one after another. Next, they just needed to follow the Spirit Clones to the 51st Floor for a few laps. After returning, all members of the former Astrea Familia could cross into the ranks of First-Class Adventurers.
Of course, these could only be considered small matters to the current Levi.
What he truly cared about was actually the startling similarity in physical nature between Alise's group and the bodies of Hestia and Hephaestus under the 'Byakugan' state after their successful Incarnation.
