Epic of Caterpillarchapter 1994: kireina's here!

When everyone had already lost all hope, when there was no way out of this situation! When things couldn't get any better, and when everyone seemed to be slowly giving up, fully knowing their almighty leader was no longer with them.

A miracle happened!

She, the one they all thought was dead, appeared, alive and kicking, right there, right now! Her wondrous, majestic presence being the same, if not even stronger than before. Her beautiful butterfly wings larger than ever, shining with cosmic and chaotic radiance!

It was her… The Supreme Goddess of Endless Gluttony and Chaotic Demise. The one and only! They had to say her name! Or else, the world around them would simply feel like it had stopped in time.

"Ki… Kireina-sama…"

Celica was the first to say her name, as her gorgeous red eyes glanced at her dear General with a gentle smile, filled with a feeling of nostalgia.

"Hello, Celica, everyone. I'm back!"

Meiji, Truhan, Goruden, Kizuato, Jinsoku, Yukan, Raito, and Asure glanced at the figure of their devilish leader with utter stupefaction!

"KIREINA!"

All of them at once screamed her name, as Kireina's red eyes shone brightly while hearing her subordinates say her name. Her two spears, Black and White, shone brightly with her Divinity and Cosmic Energy, as she moved her hands at an extremely fast speed, spreading countless cracks across the gigantic sword she had stopped.

"[Divine Cosmic Spearmanship Arts]: [One-Hundred Piercing Stars]!"

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

One hundred blows hit the giant sword at once, in just a split of a second! The imagery merely resembling stars themselves as they shoot down on their target!

Crack, crack… CRACK!

The sword gained countless cracks, beginning to shatter apart, and then, at the third second… Everything exploded into a thin dust made of black crystals!

CRAAAAAASSSH!!!

As the sword exploded into pieces, the mastermind behind this noticed a huge black spaceship-like divine artifact floating above the skies, and several other figures descending from them into Niflheim.

"K-Kireina?! Who is she?!" She wondered, gritting her mandibles. "Wait… The Supreme Goddess of Chaos from Genesis! I see… Well, that doesn't matter anyways! Another insect to crush!"

As she thought that, her voice echoed into the rest of Niflheim, as her swarm kept increasing in size, rushing down towards Kireina to devour her.

"You might have managed to break a mere sword, yes, but that doesn't mean anything! I can ALWAYS make more!"

As her voice resonated, Kireina noticed the aberrant undead-like Spirit Chimera Beast roar in fury, his two heads opening their eyes at the same time as a powerful aura of phantasmal energy and death erupted, materializing five more of those swords at once!

"Hoh? Not bad."

Kireina laughed, as the swords descended towards her all at once! However, her spears resonated with her magnificent Daos, Divinities, and Skills together, as countless of nebula-like explosions ascended towards the descending swords.

Explosions of cosmic light and many transcendental colors spread out, the swords could not even hurt her at all!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOOM!

The swords instantly disintegrated before her almighty strength, the eyes of the culprit behind the insectoids opened wide… However, she did not want to believe she had such strength!

"Ridiculous! She must be doing something strange! Attack her! With everything you have!"

"RAAAAHHH!!!"

The gigantic chimera started moving, rushing towards Kireina. Its huge body made it so a few steps were enough to reach her much smaller body. Its gigantic claws extending towards her to grasp her flesh and tear her apart.

"Let's try my newest toy, shall we? [Soul Feasting Abyssal Caterpillar Jaws]"

With a mere thought of her mind, an enormous cloud of countless of red and black colored caterpillar-like abominations materialized itself in front of her, swarming the two arms of the Chimera Spirit Beast and devouring them in mere seconds!

BBBBZZZZTTTT…!

Creating a monstrous and aberrant sound as the caterpillars feasted on the arms of the chimera, they began to multiply constantly. Kireina was absorbing their energy, restoring her HP and MP rapidly!

"W-What?!"

Hedlehash was left utterly flabbergasted the moment she saw such a ridiculous thing happening! And it did not end there, as Kireina swiftly began to transform!

"Let's play by the same rulers, alright? Silva can't summon as many beasts as you can, so let me use my latest cheat. Courtesy of the dumbass that rules the Necrotic Plane."

Her appearance changed slightly as half of her face was covered by a skull-like mask. Her wings turned deep black, overflowing with phantasmal flames, and her skin turned even paler than before.

Her purple nails became black, and her hair turned silvery-white, as her dress became black and dark blue, her shoulders were now covered on skulls, and her hips were decorated with several more bones, her beautiful neck now gained a collar of bones as well.

One of her hands had suddenly turned into a skeletal hand, as it suddenly conjured a huge sphere, her Path Jewel of Necromancy, which further channeled her powers and Daos coursing through her entire body.

Ding!
