[Devouring Complete! You have gained the ability [Life-Death Conversion].]
[Life-Death Conversion (SS)]
Details: The sub-authority that belongs between [Life] and [Death]. It allows one to convert life to death and vice versa.
A short explanation entered Shiro's vision before disappearing. Based on the information present on it, this ability allowed for the conversion of life to death. That is, bring death to everything that has life. At the same time, it allows him to bring life to the dead, forming what is known as [Undead].
Of course, they would truly remain "dead" unless their souls are brought back from Terra's reincarnation cycle, or [The Root] itself if the former isn't functioning here.
That's what happens in Shirou's world as there's no reincarnation cycle present in it due to the lack of the gods' presence. Simply put, this wouldn't have happened if the Age of Gods had ended—the denizens of that world will have a final resort to lean onto instead of being obliterated by [The Root] and lose their existences.
"Confessarius..? Oh well, they know Kal'tsit too..." He mumbled as he recalled the memories that he had just gained thanks to his devouring.
Turns out, this random [Passer-by A] is a member of a group called [Confessarius]. They are doctors and scientists who study life at first glance, but they are actually casters who had mastered the power of [Life] and [Death] through unknown means.
Furthermore, they are working with the current General of Kazdel. Since Kal'tsit is from Babel, an organization under the current Sarkaz Regent Theresia, he knew the conflicts between them.
The General pursues an iron-clad rule whereas they would kill their way to prove Kazdel's strength. On the other hand, the Regent is a pacifist who wants to show the world that Kazdel can co-exist peacefully with other nations—that they could stop their suppression against them as they are harmless enough.
In this battle, it is not wrong to say that the entire world's interests are inexplicably connected with it. Hence, Kazdel is actually a complete battlefield where everyone is involved, starting from mortal mercenaries up to the Feranmuts.
"A battlefield..." Shiro said as a sharp glint passed in his pupils. "I want to go there."
Fortunately, he could suppress his excitement as he looked towards a cliff.
"How strong am I right now..?"
From the moment he became god, Shiro lost track of his combat power. Even when his panel showed him his current status, it doesn't give a clear picture on what he can do right now.

Killing Intent: 100 (MAX)
First of all, a huge change happened in his stats. His [Soul] is in a strange state of 999B, which is the maximum capacity of a Creator God. When Shiro upgraded this system as a magus, he took into consideration the numerical ranks of it. Since putting anything beyond billions won't make any sense as it is beyond the limits of a , he didn't choose to do so.
After all, a could ignore such base stats. Furthermore, it wouldn't matter much in higher-levels as their fights would be more on [Authority] and [Godhood].
"Chief-class, I see. The billionth mark is for the , so being a as a Low Ascendant is crazy enough."
Below 50M constituted most of the while or has a status of below 1B. Anything above that is classified as an and , respectively.
While his current life level is only at , it didn't matter since his stats far surpasses the norm. Though, he could still increase his status by upgrading it.

Tapping the "+" icon four times, he went from to in a span of seconds.
[Body: 80,000,000 --> 140,000,000 (Chief-class)]
[Mind: 90,000,000 --> 160,000,000 (Chief-class)]
In a span of that upgrade, cracks began forming beneath him. Then...
Rumble-!
Crack-!
A pit of more than a kilometer deep is instantly made. It has a radius of more than 100 meters, making it a terrifying sight to anyone present here.
Not far from here, Shiro saw this scene and felt guilty.
"I knew this would happen."
To be honest, he already saw that his Soul Points gained from killing [Angra Mainyu] is enough to let him go to at once, yet he didn't choose to do his upgrade in Shirou's world, mainly because of the destruction that he'll cause.
It's not like he could upgrade in the middle of Fuyuki City and cause a "gas leak" that wiped out a city at once...
"Hm... Might as well clean this up."
Shiro floated in mid-air before he summoned forth a dozen transparent strings in his hand. These are all formed from mana, in which they contain about three million units each. He manipulated them to surround the crater he's in before letting the ground be destroyed by it.
BOOM-!
The moment these strings landed towards the cliff, it simply disintegrated in an instant. Rocks became pulverized sands as they fell to the ground, making the surroundings of the crater at its level. At this point, it is no longer a crater, but the bottom of a hill.
"Tsk... There's still a world suppression, huh. Looks like this world really is protecting itself against 'something'."
Usually, the world wouldn't do anything against destructive powers, but it'll be different once it affects a large scale. For some reasons, it prevents anyone from breaking the "balance" maintained in it.
Shiro looked up at the starry sky. The sight looks magnificent, yes, but he could vaguely see that everything is a fake—a curtain is present beyond the skies to hide the true skies of this world.
Suddenly, he felt a gaze belonging to a high-level entity. He merely smiled before taking out his black sword. Then...
[Lord of the Mysteries]-!
[Armament Convergence]-!
[Augmentation]-!
In this attack, he triggered a of 20 times, which he paid in full using the energy generated by his materialized soul. It helped that the cost is not as absurd as the of the grail.
Seeing that 'it' is injured, Shiro placed away his sword before his pupils glowed scarlet. Nothing seemingly changed in his appearance, but he is actually showing the true form of his to the one who peeked right now.
"If you come here..."
*****
'It' is scared.
This is the first time that 'it' had seen a lifeform so terrifying that 'its' eyes suffered a severe injury due to the sight of his true form. As an entity that possesses the 'Wisdom' that knows everything in this vast and endless space, it had long been arrogant.
'It' didn't take the "barrier" seriously as it glanced at that special world once in a while through the gap. He found some lifeforms interesting and toyed with them for a while, ultimately turning them into lunatics that would forever fight in that snowy place.
However, 'it' saw something horrifying this time. Even with 'its' 'Wisdom', 'it' couldn't comprehend a thing about 'him'. 'His' overall life level can be said to be way below 'it', but 'his' soul far surpasses everything.
If 'it' considered 'its' existence as a "Foreigner", then that "man" can be said to be the "True Foreigner". "He" could see through all mysteries that 'its' 'Wisdom' is nothing but a joke in front of 'it.'
'I have to tell the others.'
In the end, 'it' wisely withdrew all of 'its' influences in that planet and went to find 'its' fellow 'Foreigners' instead...
