Epic of Caterpillar

After having eaten a piece of the System Master, I felt like I could do a lot now, I even got a ton of Divine Skill Points and Divine Dungeon Points, so I could craft some new Path Jewels or upgrade the ones I already have to match my Goddess Rank and increased in strength!

You see, Path Jewels can be upgraded in power by using more Divine Skill Points, upgrading their Rank to higher ones, which might increase their power or even receive new Skills, Abilities, or effects.

Usually by upgrading them based on the number of Ranks within a Divine Rank, such as the Rank 1 to 9, only an upgrade in power would happen, but when they crossed to the next Divine Rank, such as from Living Deity to Demigod and then to God, they would most likely gain new Ability branches.

But not for now.

Right now, I shall now partake in Evolution.

[Loading Evolution Details]

[Primordial Chaos Vampire Fairy Goddess of Nightmarish Destruction and Heavenly Creation (Unique Species)]

A Race created by the unleashed power received after the user freed itself from the restraints of the world.

A Race of Gods never seen before, generate specifically for the user.

By ascending into a Goddess, your power had exponentially skyrocketed, and the insane amount of Attribute Particles you possess cannot be compared with any one of your Rank and may rival Great Gods.

This evolution specializes in the use of Dream, Nightmare, Illusion, Emotion, Chaos, Fate, Deadly Sins, Heavenly Commandments, Blood, Void, and Space Attributes.

You become a Chaos-born being that governs these elements and can freely transcend through dreams, illusions, and more.

[Future Evolution Choices: Unlimited]

Ooh?!

Thanks, System Gods!

I guess they are pretty happy that I munched off their daddy, he was kind of an asshole for them too.

What I know about it is that the bastard just left them completely isolated and alone, and originally intended to use them as something like independent computers…

Damn, what a horrible father!

Why am I the most villainous around here but I always end up being a better parent than the majority of these Gods?

Like damn, is it being a bad parent a trait that a God must have to be a God?

I mean… Well, whatever, time to evolve.

I quickly flew out of the room and made some space high into the heavens of my Divine Realm, if my evolution triggers some chaotic effect, it is better to do it in here.

And… boop!

Ding!

[You have selected the [Primordial Chaos Vampire Fairy Goddess of Nightmarish Destruction and Heavenly Creation (Unique Species)] Evolution!]

[Initializing Evolution…]

Flash!

Suddenly, all the Attribute Particles inside of my very soul concentrated into an enormous force, fusing with my physical body!

Oh wow, that was pretty fast!

My body immediately began to be covered in a cocoon of darkness, as it began to melt away!

Agh, again with this?

As I melted away and turned into soup, like a caterpillar into a butterfly, I began to reform, slowly, bit by bit, as if I were being born again from a primordial soup of life.

My cells started to multiple once more, dividing and fusing together, forming all of my new body completely!

My soul was also dissolved… which gave me immense and excruciating pain.

But my Divine Realm did not tremble or anything, so it was seemingly safe.

I fought against falling unconscious, as the pain took hold of my entire mind…

But I simply stopped thinking about pain.

So yeah, here we are, evolving…

La, la, la…

As the minutes went by, my flesh had already formed and kept growing and expanding!

And after a bit more…

There!

It was… almost done!

Now…

FLASH!

Radiant light and abyssal darkness emerged from my body, as I exploded out of the cocoon, I was, once more, reborn!

Damn, now I am evolving again, did you like that?

I bet you were waiting for me to evolve for a long time, so it's nice to evolve again after not so much time before the other evolutions.

By the by, I am just talking with my own minds, so do not mind me, mind.

The radiance and darkness coated my body and merged themselves with me…

And it was over!

My body appearance… barely changed!

…

What?!

I really expected some nice and amazing change!

Well, I gained a third horn growing from my forehead now, which goes up like that of a unicorn, but it's dark and coated in purple and pink metallic materials, it is not so long though, so it's a bit cute.

And yeah, the enormous horns at each side of my head remained the same size, but now coated n this metal, and well, several jewels as well.

Really, it was as if had become some kind of Alter Version of the Tiamat from Fate Grand Order, my horns were just as big and majestic!

Damn, now that I remember her, she was quite the waifu material, too bad it was a fictional world, and it would be copyright to visit it or something.

Ding!

Oh, is this because of eating the restrictions of the System Master?

So I am finally me!

And it became the third race…

Just how many races can you be at the same time?

I guess that this race is my primordial existence, while the fairy race is the physical body I forged in this world, and the Dungeon… well the Dungeon is the Dungeon.

Oh, all my stats gave a big jump, damn, this is indeed quite nice.

However, I thought it was going to be way more.

But seeing how you get not so many stats in the Ranks of Living Deity and Demigod, it is quite normal to see these stats.

As you rank up into higher Realms such as Goddess, each number of the Realm's Rank should give even better stats, I am assuming so.

This means that as long as I keep ranking up as a Goddess, the bonus stats I can get through will increase even more.

And well, my Divine Skill Points and Divine Dungeon Points recharged a lot.

However, it is not as much as I used to have.

But this is simple, I can get more every day, or, like before, eat Gods.

…Or dungeons.

Oh yeah, I got some Dungeon Cores that I can buy in the Shop… so I could technically get even more power from them.

Oh, now that I think about it…

Shouldn't I let my wives and children eat Dungeons too?

If they can, they would be able to get the Shop for themselves, and strengthen themselves even more!

We could do some full-cycle thing where we keep strengthening ourselves by buying stuff.

Woah, is that even allowed?

That is pretty bad, please, do not nerf this!

At least not for me and my family!

Hm… No, it would not be as crazy though, as they would need to also gather their own Points, and it would still take time.

And they do not have the discount stuff…

I wonder if I can gift the discount Skill.

No… I do not think it will work, seeing how unique and amazing its effect is, it is most likely just for me.

But well, eating a Dungeon would benefit them either way anyways.

Talking about the Dungeon…

What with the Dungeon Shop?

Does it say that can freaking rank it up?

What?

Since when can a shop freaking evolve?

Or maybe this is a way to restock items and unlock higher-ranked ones?

As I remember correctly, there were some Ranks I did not even know about in this shop.

But the thing is, they were locked.

I could not even buy them and had exorbitant prices, or prices I did not understand.

It seems that you can refine Divine Skill Points and Divine Dungeon Points, and get something of higher quality, similarly to God Ranks, but for these Points!

Well, isn't that weird?

But I guess it is a better way to cope with the progression of these insane numbers, instead of just making everything cost too much, you refine the points and make them less but of higher cost and value, which can get you even better powers and items fitting of your Rank.

Sounds interesting, right?

Everything I was able to buy in the shop was only up to Living Deity, the Sins and Commandments were considered 'mortal' for some reason.

So now, I have to refine my Divine Skill Points and Divine Dungeon Points as well as Ranking Up my Divine Dungeon Shop…

Oh, and I cannot upgrade my Path Jewels if I do not get the proper high-Rank Divine Skill Points…

Oof, well, now you are just forcing me to do this, huh, System Gods?

Okay, alright.

Ding!

[Do you desire to Refine 65.585.000 Living Deity (Rank 1) Divine Skill Points into 655.850 Goddess (Rank 3) Divine Skill Points?]

So low! They better have lower prices!
