Epic of Caterpillar
chapter-174

As I teased the Champion of Psychic Eyes, her face was shrouded in fear and despair. All of my words seemed to be of great impact to her sanity. I didn't want to break her before bedding her, so I decided to only play around a little bit with her before taking her for myself.

Nanako yelled at me with disgust before preparing her next attack, she put herself into a strange position as the Psychic forces surrounding her covered her kimono, her kimono grew in size as it changed from its scarlet colors to golden and pink colors, it began to float in the air majestically as he aura started to increase in size. Suddenly, her beauty increased and her pink hair grew towards the skies like a river of Sakura petals.

"All-Seer Arts; Psychic Release!"

Suddenly, a powerful force broke through the air as an invisible hand grabbed my entire body tightly. As I glanced at Nanako once again, I discovered that her aura was the one attacking me, similar to my own aura. Although it seemed to be an invisible force, it had a source. Her eyes kept releasing a powerful Psychic Aura that covered the entire vicinity of around 100 meters.

Her aura fluctuated as it opened thousands of eyes, that looked at me with scorn. It was an amazing display of her true powers.

The giant invisible hand grabbed me tightly as it throws me towards the ground at an amazing speed, however, I manipulated the Gravity and Wind around me and stopped midair, while I ordered three of my [Arms of Demise] to stop Nanako's invisible hands. Suddenly, two massive hands began to fight each other, creating devastating shockwaves, destroying everything, and anyone near them.

Nanako's Psychic Hands were strong, as they managed to destroy my [Arms of Demise] with ease, however, each time this happened a massive magic explosion would occur, making her aura protect Nanako in surprise. She glanced at me with hateful eyes while she sweated due to the fear, I only kept sending more [Arms of Demise] to pressure her into attacking in other ways.

Suddenly the eyes in her aura began to change as her presence grew thicker, suddenly her Psychic Hands retracted from her body as her aura began to shapeshift into a humanoid-like giant made of transparent pink light. Nanako was on its head while commanding it with her limbs.

It suddenly rushed towards me as it devastated anything in the battlefield, its blows were even stronger and her defense was outstanding, alongside this, the thousands of eyes spread through the monster body were able to shoot powerful beams of pink light, vaporizing anything that came her way.

My [Arms of Demise] were no longer useful as the monster was able to destroy them before they could even reach a closer distance to safely detonate and guarantee any damage. I wanted to experiment with how our two auras could compare as I tried to imitate her Art, molding my own aura, resembling a mad wolf. I used other skills while solidifying its mass, and the Aura Wolf was ready.

Suddenly a battle between two giant beasts took the spotlight in the heated battlefield as I commanded my wolf to bite the giant monster limbs, easily tearing them apart. However, Nanako would command her monster to shoot thousands of laser beams, that deal heavy damage in my Aura Wolf, however, because it feeds in my own Stamina and MP, it would regenerate endlessly.

Suddenly Nanako displayed a new Art as she created a powerful set of armor over her Aura Giant, while a massive Katana showed up, both of them were incredibly sturdy and made with her own [Organic Armor Materialization] Skill. My Aura Wolf was barely able to damage it as she pounced over me and slashed me hundreds of times with incredible mastery, while at the same time, shooting thousands of laser beams.

I never imagined that she could be this strong, she was really deserving to be called the strongest Champion!

Due to her new strength, I began to pressure her more as I released powerful magic spells, mostly in the form of massive meteor showers, weapon shaped projectiles, and blazing tornados. However, as I kept trying new magic in her, most of it was completely bounced off or did too little damage, which demonstrated the power of her Arts.

Nonetheless, as I started combining elements, more unconventional magic spells would rain over her, from massive Black Hole rain to Gravity Altering Seals, and even massive One Hundred Venomous Gemstone Hammers. As my spells kept evolving alongside me, she was quickly overwhelmed as she wasn't used to adapting to the situations and most likely only overwhelmed monsters and dungeon bosses with her Arts.

When the armor in her Aura Giant began to shatter into pieces, she used almost all her power and magic into one single point, the red-eye in her forehead, concentrating everything she had. She released a massive beam of complete annihilation, as her last resort against me.

The power of the beam was devastating, it completely vaporized my aura entirely as I felt my skin beginning to burn to a crisp, my armor started to melt and my hair was turned to ashes. Its power quickly penetrated my entire body and all my internal organs exploded inside of me, but thanks to [Pain Nullification], I felt no pain.

Of course, I received the attack willingly, as I wanted to try out to what extent my recovering capabilities were now. If I wanted, I would have conjured several magic barriers at my disposal and even bounced her beam to her, killing her instead.

As Nanako saw how I was completely vaporized in front of her, she released a "sigh" as her Aura Giant slowly dissipated.

"I… Somehow did it… I defeated… A Realm Menace…"

Suddenly, the entire war came to a pause as even my servants watched at the results of our fight with surprise. Some of my servants began to panic as they never imagined their Master to actually die.

However, Truhan and Celica only smiled.

Some of my soldiers glanced at them with surprise.

"Senior Truhan, why are you smiling?! M-Master is… Master is…"

"Bwahaha! Death? Nonsense! Master Kireina is just playing around, look"

"Huh?"

As all the humans and demi-humans glanced at me, I was once again in one single piece, even when all my organs exploded, my skin burned and my bones melted, I was back to normal without even a bruise, I was already using a new pair of clothes that I created using [Equipment Materialization].

Nanako Maki who was sighing in relief was suddenly taken aback in complete surprise, as I was very close to her and giving her a happy smile.

"A-Ah! Y-You died! I saw how your entire flesh and skin were completely melted… How is it possible?! What kind of regeneration abilities do you have? Are you immortal?!"

The moment I "died", my body did burn to almost ashes, as my immunities and absorption abilities didn't prevent damage from a non-elemental beam made of Psychic Power.

However, as I felt my entire body completely being destroyed, I suddenly activated all my regeneration skills and felt an incredible power surging through my very soul, my entire body suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and even half of my brain that was already being vaporized regenerated out of nowhere. The Skills used was a combination of [Body Fluids and Flesh Creation and Manipulation], [Elixir Blood], [Instant Limb Regeneration], [Ancient Hydra Head Regeneration] and [Logic-Defying Near Death Full Recovery]. The combination of all these skills regenerated my body completely as if nothing happened, I was "revived" to put it short.

Happy with my little experimentation, I glanced over Nanako with a playful smile.

"Fufufu… It's a secret…"

"Guaaah! G-Get away! I won't become your puppet! I would prefer death than to serve you, you horrible monster!"

As she said these words, Nanako took a small pink knife from her garments as she tried to slice her neck, however, she lacked the strength to do so as she was completely exhausted.

As I slowly and coquettishly walked towards her, she tried to drag her own body away from me, but to no avail, I captured her with my own Golden Threads, I even played with her body and tightly wrapped her with a bondage technique that I usually use with my wives. All her curves were visible through her Kimono as my threads tightly wrapped themselves around her.

"Hmm?! Ghaa! L-Let me go!"

"It is time for you to sleep, Nanako…"

After saying these words, I released a small pinkish fragrance from my butterfly wings which quickly made her enter into a sleeping state. Saving her into my Item Box, I looked at the humans surrounding me, who had frozen in time after seeing me play around with their respected Master as if she were a mere toy to me.

"A-A-Ahh…! How dare you, monster!!!"

"KILL HER!!!"

"Save Lady Nanako!!!"

"Uoooooohhhh!!! Die!!!"

I was suddenly swarmed by thousands of humans that jumped over me like little ants trying to kill a bear. I enhanced my hand with my Aura while using my [Transcendent Art] as I waved my arm, wiping out hundreds of humans with an incredibly strong and catastrophic attack of multiple types of forces colliding with each other. The humans that somehow survived had their bodies instantly bound, while all their stats were lowered, and to top it all, the had their minds completely destroyed and their souls heavily injured.

However, even after seeing my overwhelming strength, these humans kept attacking me in hopes of somehow dealing with any damage to me.

After five swipes from my hands, thousands of humans died as the entire hill where I was standing was completely painted in scarlet blood.

"Sigh… That's all they have I suppose…"

I commanded my troops to keep on cleaning the war by devastating the humans, I noticed the Wyvern Family had already joined in and were doing their deeds, killing countless humans while burning them to ashes. They seemed to enjoy this the most, most probably because they held a grudge for humans.

At the other side, there was Redgaria who glanced over the battlefield with a malicious smile, even when he used to be a human, he is surely no longer one, as he sees most humans as just ants and crushes them with his powerful Undead Army while gathering their souls on his crystal sphere.

Whenever a strong group of soldiers tried to work together to take him in, he would summon one of his "personal" Undead, who held immense power and mastery over various techniques and magic, similar to the Undead King and its Knights.

The airborne team was going great, led by the Harpy Girl and her Father, alongside Ocypete, the Gale Bird Valkyries and Griffon cavalry, they overwhelmed the enemy with powerful magic attacks from the skies, without giving the humans any type to retaliate or recover.

I was constantly talking with the Harpy Girl while updating her about the condition of the Wind Hero, he seems to be having lots of fun with my wives, they're beating him beyond belief, but thanks to being a Hero, he can somehow recover and keep on struggling, he has a lot of vitality and resilience. Some of my wives were affected by his slicing winds rampage but they quickly regenerated thanks to my Flesh and Slime Minions accompanying them. In that enclosed Shadow Space, he can't get out unless Zehe gives him her permission or dies.

However, I feel like I am missing something…

As Kireina overwhelmed Nanako Maki with her incredible regeneration capabilities and peerless strength, the Champion of Freezing Winter, Sapphira Diamantine, ran for her life, after Kireina's wives, Mady, Adelle and Charlotte forgave her life.

Sapphira knew about the Hero of Wind's current state and as more and more notifications of her fellow comrades dying came to her, her heart was suddenly enveloped in rage and impotence. Qualified as one of the weakest Champions, Sapphira didn't have enough confidence in her own strength and only ran through the battlefield in hopes of escaping the hell she was currently in.

She would have rather preferred for all of this to be a horrible nightmare, but as she ran, she felt exhausted and the pain of her wounds was clear to her. It wasn't a dream at all.

As Sapphira saw the end of the battlefield, her heart was filled with the hope of her survival, however, that hope couldn't even bloom inside of her heart as it was instantly crushed by the might of thousands of powerful Undead Soldiers.

Although she struggled with everything she had, creating a massive commotion of Ice and Winter, she was slowly diminished, losing hope and despairing, she died while being impaled by hundreds of Skeleton Soldiers.

Redgaria, who was spectating such a scene, laughed playfully.

"Haha…! To think that I would come across such an interesting specimen, you will be a good addition to my collection of Undead Knights..."
