Epic of Caterpillar
chapter-467

Phymara Luna Moonfang was the daughter of the queen of Moonfang, Dalia Luna Eyefrost, and also the daughter of Lionel, the Lion Beast King.

She was the sole daughter of the Queen, a former slave that through immense effort slowly raised in ranks, recognized by the King as someone worthy of governing at his side becoming the Queen.

At young age that Phymara showcased an impressive talent with magic, she had inherited her mother's Ice Attribute Magic but was also born with Holy Attribute Magic, and Light Attribute Magic, her fur was pale yellow and she had an adorable and small complexion, but her magic was capable of defeating strong warriors with ease.

However, although Lionel recognized her strength, she never became his favorite child, and Phymara was quickly forgotten by her father.

Her mother was quite crude, and never raised her with love and care, so she grew distant from everyone, and a bit asocial with the rest.

She had impressive magic which she trained diligently to one day impress her father again.

She traveled through several dungeons and defeated the monsters inside, even to the point of killing some bosses by herself.

Gaining riches inside the dungeons and powerful equipment, she slowly raised in strength. When the time came for wars or skirmishes between nations, she would always participate and put into use her amazing talents to make her father and mother proud.

But her mother, no matter what she accomplished, ignored her. And her father had his eyes on her eldest brother, Drarus, who had recently awakened his Epic Skill and became a 'Hero' of Moonfang, his power was unparalleled to any of his siblings and outshined them all.

Phymara fell into despair. Although she was a princess, had outstanding magic and all the riches she could imagine, she lacked the attention and love from both of her parents…

One day, as she fell lost in the world, an entity came to her.

A creature from the nether of the world, a being malicious to its core. A creature born from hatred.

Yet, it was divine. It made Phymara feel complete.

"Ah, you're God, aren't you?"

Phymara was never a fervent believer of Maeralya or her daughters, as she never truly believed in gods, or mostly ignored them, as they had never done anything to help her or had talked to her.

But Geggoron, a god, appeared in front of her.

She immediately filled the void of her heart with faith.

"I am Geggoron, a Demon God. I felt that you lack something in your heart. You are talented and praised for it, but you lack the love and care to fill the void within your existence. I have come to give you faith, so you can be whole again. And in exchange, you shall give me your body,"

"Faith…? Whole? What is there for me to even doubt, you are God after all… such a divine and incredible existence… I have been overwhelmed, please, take me, I am yours, and only yours," said Phymara, her eyes becoming scarlet red, and the small amount of sanity that she had slowly dissipated.

Since that day, Phymara became insane, and at the same time, she gained faith.

With faith, she did not need the approbation of anyone, or the attention of her ungrateful parents, she had faith, and Geggoron, she felt like she did not need anything else anymore.

She became the first believer of Geggoron in Moonfang, she created a cult and spread his words of wisdom and insanity to the people, she helped him brainwash others, even her siblings and parents.

"Isn't it beautiful? We are all one now, we do not need to seek each other's approbation! We can be like this forever, can't we?"

She sacrificed innocents for the sake of Geggoron, giving him strength and faith.

Demon Gods were capable of gaining Divine Energy through intense faith, but sacrifices were also included, the more sacrifices, the faster he could grow.

Geggoron's influence grew and grew… until the entire Moonfang Kingdom was in his grasp.

The faith that had made Phymara feel so alive, brought the doom of many people, though she never cared about this.

She was now one with God himself, Geggoron. And her entire family was as well, everyone cooperated so happily and did everything together for one single purpose, serving God, Geggoron.

"I have never seen something so beautiful," she thought every day, her life was now that of eternal happiness… until one day.

Kireina appeared, she easily ate Geggoron's split souls and destroyed his plans, she infiltrated the Kingdom and brainwashed the entire population with her wicked unholy powers.

Her family was cornered, but as long as they stuck together, they would surely survive…

But for Phymara, Kireina was crafty and malicious, a true demon, unlike Geggoron, a holy God so humble that it called itself a Demon.

The crafty and unholy demon separated her family and enclosed each person inside a different domain space, with two of the demoness concubines.

Phymara wanted to help her siblings and her parents, her beloved and happy family, the perfect life that she had was being now shattered by a selfish creature that came from the outside world.

"I cannot let… I cannot let all of you destroy my perfect life! It was all so happy! I wanted it to be forever! Why? Why?! Why must you interrupt my life?! What have I done to you to deserve this?!" Shouted Phymara, confronting the two women in front of her.

"Oh my, what is this…?" asked Nixephine, teasingly.

She was an outstandingly beautiful black-haired woman, with dark chocolate-colored skin, six slender yet strong arms, a massively generous pair of breasts, and a lewd and voluptuous body… she had six golden eyes, two were humanoid, while four were smaller and were in her forehead. Instead of legs, her lower half was that of a giant golden scorpion, with a hard gold exoskeleton, massive pincers, and a long and sharp stinger. She wore golden accessories across her entire body, barely covering her nipples and waist.

"What kind of fantasy was Geggoron giving to this girl? Well, you might not be in fault about it, but your God, Geggoron, dared to attack our daughter-in-law, so it was obvious that we would come to kill him, simple as that" said Nefertiti, releasing a devilish chuckle.

She had the beauty of a refined empress of the desert. Her bright chocolate skin shined glossily, her hands had paws covered in silky black hair with thin claws, and her legs were also covered in such fur and had smaller claws. She had long coyote ears over the top of her head and a long coyote tail over the top of her round and smooth butt. She wore a simple white dress, revealing most of her body.

Although she had the characteristics of a coyote beastmen, she was a True Light Spirit's descendant.

"F-Fantasy?! How dare you call my life a fantasy! It was all I worked very hard to achieve, you are nothing but evil villains that had come to ruin it all for the sake of it! You must be exterminated in the name of God!" shouted Phymara, bright and holy light exuding from her small body, as the Nightmarish Aura of Geggoron's split soul appeared as well from within, both light and darkness entangled with each other, living in perfect harmony.

"Holy Eclipse Cannon!"

The magic energies exuded from her body merged into one single beam of eclipsing light and darkness, flying towards Nixephine and Nefertiti with outstanding speed.

Flash!

Nixephine and Nefertiti smiled.

"Let's teach this little girl a lesson, shall we?" asked Nixephine, as her golden-brown Aura expanded, creating gold sand out of thin air, which moved through the air as if it were water.

"I was a bit annoyed when Kireina-sama decided to pair me with you, but I guess I have to admit that your proposal is good. Let us teach her a good lesson, fufu" laughed Nefertiti, her golden aura, as bright as the sun itself appeared in a shape similar to an arc. It moved to her will, concentrating in a single spot, her hands.

"Golden Dunes Great Castle Barrier!"

"Desert's Sovereign Light Cannon!"

A giant castle made out of golden sand appeared from out of thin air, protecting the two, while a giant cannon of blinding bright light was fired from within Nefertiti's Aura.

Flash!

Both beams of magical energy clashed against each other, Phymara and Nefertiti used their primary energies (Spirit Energy/Mana/Divine Energy) and Auras to enhance each other attacks, trying to defeat the other.

However, Geggoron's split soul merged with Phymara began to exude an eerie Divine Energy, giving her beam even more potency.

Nixephine grinned.

"Having problems? Let me help you out!" said Nixephine, shaping the golden sandcastle into a cannon-like structure, and creating cannonballs of this magical golden sand.

"What? From where you learned that?!" shouted Nefertiti.

"I call this Sand Cannon!" laughed Nixephine, firing gigantic projectiles made out of solidified earth magic in the form of golden sand, all made into balls as hard and sturdy as mountains.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Each cannonball flew towards Phymara with immense speed, breaking the wind itself.

"Ah! What is that?!"

Phymara desperately shifted the direction of her Eclipse Cannon and destroyed the cannonballs in time, only to give Nefertiti a blind spot to abuse!

"Foolish girl!" shouted Nefertiti, laughing maliciously as she charged her Light Cannon with more of her Spirit Energy, the light began to shine so brightly that for a moment, the entire enclosed space became a world of pure whiteness.

Flash!

The massive beam hit Phymara directly, sending her flying through the air, her entire body was burned by the intensity of the bright light.

"Aagghh…! Nightmarish Eclipse Barrier!" she shouted, as an eclipsing convergence of light and darkness transformed into a barrier that protected her from the burning damage, as her Divinity retrieved from Geggoron's split soul began to regenerate her burned flesh…

As she fell to the ground with a clash, Nefertiti stopped infusing her Spirit Energy into the attack.

"That was a good distraction, I have to admit it," she said to Nixephine.

Nixephine laughed as she gave her a gentle smile.

"Fufufu, it's nothing!" she said, releasing small chuckles.

"Y-You filthy monsters, you won't be able to win against me, I have the power of God in my side!" shouted Phymara, her aura expanded wildly around, forming giant tentacles that began to slap the ground and destroy anything near them.

Five spheres of light and darkness began to rotate around her as she jumped to the skies and flew towards Nixephine and Nefertiti with a wicked smile.

"Eclipsing Sun!" shouted Phymara, as she controlled the spheres rotating around her, they suddenly increased in size, resembling smaller Overpowering Suns!

"A magic battle it is!" laughed Nixephine, which had both outstanding magic and physical strength, she infused her Aura and Mana into the sandcastle, making it change shapes again.

"From where you learned that?" asked Nefertiti, as she generated a massive whip of bright and solidified light.

"It was obviously from Kireina-sama! After seeing her shape many things and her own aura and magic as golems, the insight of a new spell series came to me!" said Nixephine, laughing.

Her sandcastle suddenly generated massive arms, which Nixephine gave her Legendary and Phantasmal Equipment, the [Earth Shaking Golden Claymore of Ancient Sands; Mathonth] and [Grand Runic Palace's Wall of Protection; Zakon].

A giant magic-based sandcastle golem wielding a titanic blade and an immense shield joined in the battle, receiving Phymara's 'Overpowering Sun' imitations with slashes and its shield.

Nixephine was capable of using her techniques into the golem by infusing more of her Mana, and thanks to the 'Divinity Devouring' effect conjured by the Slime Clones accompanying her, the attacks were able to pierce the Divine Energy-enhanced magic fired by Phymara, generating explosions that broke the wind itself.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

"Huh?! Did she shape her magic as a giant? And that blade and shield… Legendary Rank weapons!" shouted Phymara, bewildered. Her staff was also a Legendary weapon, alongside some of her accessories, but it was often very rare to find someone else with such a high rank of weapons.

"No matter, as long as I have God at my side… everything is possible! Eclipsing Sun! Eclipsing Sun! Nightmarish Eclipse Blade Rain!"

More Eclipsing Suns were directed towards Nixephine, who bravely slashed them in half by controlling the giant blade with her magic golem.

Boom! Boom!"

From within Phymara's aura, large clouds were generated, which began to create blades of solidified Nightmarish Eclipse Magic in the form of sharp blades, raining them over the two girls.

"That is just a bad imitation of Kireina-sama!" shouted Nefertiti, raising her light whip and destroying the blades with immense speed and gracefulness by whipping them with her magic.

Clash! Clash! Clash!
