Yandere Levelling in Her World-Chapter 146 - 147: New World

Ren kept staring at the sky.

"This isn't good…" he muttered. "Is this what I think it is?"

The sky above Norbata had turned an unnatural blue, like the color of a wound that refused to close. A massive beam of energy still stretched upward from the traitors' lab in the distance, piercing the clouds and vanishing into something beyond sight. The air felt heavy, pressing down on his chest.

Ren clenched his fist.

There was something inside him. Something ugly that hated everything about this.

A primal fear crawled along his spine, mixed with a boiling hatred that made his teeth grind when he looked up at that glowing sky.

"This isn't normal," Ren said again, louder this time. "No way."

Kyouka stepped closer, her eyes narrowed as she scanned the horizon. "You're feeling it too, aren't you?"

Ren nodded. "It feels like… something bad is coming. I don't like this."

Astrid swallowed. "The lab. That beam. The traitors said they were going to change the world, but I thought it was just insane talk."

Nina hugged herself. "I can't hear the birds anymore. I can't hear anything. This is insane...I don't even hear the noise of wind."

Selene slowly raised her head. "Neither can I."

The city had gone silent.

Not the peaceful kind of silence, but the kind that screamed something was wrong. Cars were frozen on the roads. Sirens had died mid-wail. Even the wind seemed afraid to move.

People were able to talk, but soon they realized it was not their mouths that were speaking. In fact, they were not talking at all. Their words were being transferred directly into each other's heads.

It was a disgusting feeling, yet at the same time, it was a sign that something insane was about to happen.

Then the beam flickered.

Ren's heart skipped.

"Get ready," he said. "Something's coming."

For a brief moment, the world held its breath.

And then it happened.

A shape tore through the blue sky.

It was not a meteor. Not entirely.

It burned with the same blue energy as the beam, falling fast, screaming as it cut through the air. The clouds split apart as if pushed away by fear itself.

"What the hell is that?" Astrid shouted.

"RUN!" Kyouka yelled.

They did not get the chance.

The entity slammed into the land far beyond the city outskirts.

The impact was silent for half a second.

Then the world exploded.

A blinding flash swallowed the horizon, followed by a shockwave that ripped through Norbata. Buildings shook violently. Windows shattered. The ground buckled beneath their feet.

Ren was thrown backward, his vision white.

And then the pulse came.

A wave of energy rolled across the land like an invisible tsunami, passing straight through them.

Ren gasped.

Instead of pain, warmth flooded his body.

It was a weird feeling of overwhelming power, as if everything about his body was improving.

"What…?" Nina whispered, staring at her hands. "I feel amazing."

"My eyes," Astrid said in disbelief. "They don't hurt anymore."

Selene flexed her fingers. "It's like being reborn."

Ren's breath caught as he looked ahead.

Because the world was changing.

Right in front of his eyes.

The buildings below began to twist and stretch, concrete bending as if it were clay. Skyscrapers warped upward, their shapes becoming jagged, uneven towers of stone and metal fused together.

The streets cracked open, revealing glowing veins beneath the asphalt.

"What am I seeing…?" Ren whispered.

The ground trembled again.

To the north district, massive stone ridges erupted through the city blocks, shattering apartments and malls alike. Wind howled between them, carrying strange, almost human whispers.

Selene shuddered. "Do you hear that?"

Ren nodded slowly. "They're… talking."

The north had become something else entirely.

Jagged peaks rose where office buildings once stood. Broken highways curved into narrow mountain paths. Silver-blue moss spread across shattered walls, glowing softly as darkness crept in.

Astrid pointed. "That moss is moving."

A gust of wind disturbed it, and faint spores drifted into the air.

Nina covered her mouth. "Don't breathe that in."

Ren remembered something the hunters had mentioned.

"Dungeon Floor One," he said. "Driftpeaks."

The whispers grew louder, urging, tempting, pulling at the mind.

"No fucking way! Ren is right...this is fucking driftpeaks." Nina muttered, as she could easily tell about the only floor of the dungeon that she had been.

"And it merged with the northen district," Kyouka said.

Another tremor rolled through the city.

This time, the east district changed. They were able to clearly see the far horizon of the east side because all the districts were visible to them.

The ground collapsed inward, forming massive sinkholes between residential blocks. Water surged up from below, flooding streets and turning them into dark canals.

But this was not normal water.

Glowing coral-like structures burst through submerged buildings. Bioluminescent plants wrapped around streetlights, turning them into eerie lanterns.

"The east…" Nina said softly. "It's underwater."

Ren watched as a bus was swallowed by the rising water, only for something large to move beneath the surface as if it was alive.

"What the hell is that?" Astrid asked.

Ren swallowed. "I don't know but it's underwater! This is insane!"

Sunken Streets where visibility dropped to nothing beyond a few meters.

Pressure Zones that crushed anything unprotected.

Living Reefs that reacted aggressively to sound.

Tidal Corridors that shifted paths every few minutes.

Selene clenched her jaw. "That whole area is a death trap now."

The pulse did not stop.

To the west and south, factories and warehouses twisted into massive overgrown ruins. Steel beams merged with roots. Concrete cracked as colossal trees and huge structures burst through the ground.

The air turned thick and humid.

The change did not stop at just one side of the city. It spread everywhere at once, like a living thing claiming its territory.

Kyouka broke the silence. "So… the gate."

Ren nodded. "It didn't just break. It vanished all together it looks like."

Selene looked pale. "It's over. This might be the end of the world."

Astrid whispered, "The dungeon was contained… and now it's on the surface...is this really what traitors wanted?"

Nina's voice sounded little too excited. "What end of the world?This is a chance! We are hunters and our job became lot more easier and important because of this."

Ren closed his eyes.

He could feel it now.

Not just fear.

Not just hatred.

But something calling to him from deep within the transformed land. Itwas calling him.

"Yes," he said quietly. "That pulse didn't stop at Norbata."

He opened his eyes.

"The dungeon floors merged with reality. Cities everywhere are probably changing right now."

Kyouka exhaled slowly. "So this is it."

Astrid forced a weak smile. "No more normal life, huh?"

Selene looked at the ruined skyline. "No more old Norbata."

Ren stared at the twisted towers and glowing biomes, his reflection flickering in the strange light.

"The traitors might have wanted this or not," he said. "The world itself is a dungeon now."

He clenched his fist.

"And surviving it… is the only way forward."

***

High above what used to be Norbata, in a place untouched by collapsing districts and screaming earth, two figures stood within a fractured pocket of reality.

Chiyo slowly turned her head.

The woman beside her looked ordinary at first glance. Long golden hair flowing gently despite the absence of wind. Calm eyes. A soft smile that did not belong on someone standing at the edge of apocalypse.

"So," Chiyo said quietly, her voice carrying an edge she rarely showed, "you weren't lying when you said you didn't even need to lay your hands on them personally for it to come true."

Lan Jia kept smiling, as if she were listening to a child speak.

Chiyo's fingers tightened inside her sleeve. "Even as a goddess… you make me scared," she muttered.

That admission alone shattered the illusion of normalcy. Chiyo Daichi was not human. Not anymore. Perhaps never truly had been.

Lan Jia turned toward her fully then. Her smile softened, not mocking, not proud. Loving. Terrifyingly sincere.

"I can do anything for my love," she said gently.

The broken sky trembled.

"There is an ability," Lan Jia continued, her voice warm and almost shy, "one that lets me see futures. Not possibilities. Not branches. The future."

Chiyo stiffened.

"In that future," Lan Jia said, eyes glowing faintly, "this world will witness my love and its genuineness. Every scream, every collapse, every rebirth will prove it."

She placed a hand over her chest.

"This whole world will melt before my love."

For a moment, even the distorted reality around them seemed to recoil.

Chiyo stared at her, unease crawling deeper than divine instinct. "Your undying love...huh," she muttered. Then, after a pause, "But… you have my blessing."

Lan Jia blinked.

Then she laughed softly.

"I don't need anyone's blessing," she replied, shaking her head. "The only blessing I want is from my baby Ren."

That name echoed unnaturally, rippling through the fractured space.

Chiyo clicked her tongue and shrugged. "So this means our relationship ends here."

She glanced sideways. "Just in case, let me ask you something."

Lan Jia stopped walking.

"What are you to me from now on?" Chiyo asked. "An ally? An enemy?"

Lan Jia took a few steps forward, then paused. Without turning fully back, she glanced over her shoulder. Her smile was gone.

"As long as you keep your pussy and fingers away from my baby," Lan Jia muttered calmly, "you won't be anything to me."

Her eyes sharpened.

"But if you interfere with him," she continued, voice cold enough to freeze gods, "and my love… then you can become whatever you wish."

Enemy.

Obstacle.

Corpse.

Lan Jia turned away and began to leave, her presence fading into the darkness.

Just before disappearing, she spoke again, almost casually.

"Good luck getting to your sister and your father," she muttered. "I hope your revenge comes true."

Lan Jia slowly walked away, leaving Chiyo alone.

For the first time in centuries, the goddess felt something dangerously close to dread.

"Lan Jia...Faceless woman...you might be our worst mistake...both mine and my sisters." Chiyo muttered, as her attention went back to the ever-changing Norbata knowing Goddess awaited her.
