Epic of Caterpillarchapter 319: at last... skill fusions!

[Day 198]

After last night's negotiations with Morpheus, I got to know a lot of things. Like that of the Thanatos Kingdom sending Vampires as spies who are slowly destroying the Kingdom from the inside, and things about gods as well, like the Great Goddess of Beast being a horrible mother and the Goddess of Blood liking to play around with mortals and use her descendants to do her bidding.

Alongside this, Morpheus seemed to comply with his promise, as today, Sofelaia and Sofarpia obtained his blessing, it wasn't much compared to a God blessing, but a Demi-God Blessing is better than nothing. Their strength was increased and some of their skills awakened, in especially that strange magic that they had sealed, they awakened it, and just as I imagined the moment, I got to know about Life Attribute, that magic was exactly that.

According to Zehe and Redgaria, Life Attribute Magic is similar to Chaos, being a forgotten element that was very hard to obtain, only a selected few being who were descendants of gods could obtain this attribute.

Most of the Centaurs in Cilane were descendants of the Great Goddess of Beasts Ova, who had Life Attribute as her primary divinity. However, through the years, this blood colluded and any centaur awakening with this magic attribute hasn't been seen in hundreds of years, most of them having the skill sealed and set at level 0. Now Sofelaia and Sofarpia, who are long descendants of Morpheus, who is one of the sons of Ova, awakened this magic.

They also went through small changes.

"M-Master… we have received the blessing of our ancestor Morpheus-sama!" Said Sofelaia, bewildered by her new surge of strength.

"I can't believe this! Could it be? Have we been chosen to liberate our people by our ancestors and representative God?! Heavens!" Said Sofelaia, looking at the ceiling as if it were the sky where she thinks that Morpheus inhabits.

I was happy over their boost in strength, so I celebrated by inviting them to have breakfast with us, they got to know Rimuru's cupcakes and several other of my preparations, and were delighted by the food.

As Wall and Mao played with each other around the room, I began to think about the implications of what was happening.

Not only was the Cilane Kingdom somehow connected to Thanatos, but also the Azuma Empire, if the Azuma Empire ends up making bonds with Thanatos alerting them of my existence and then use me as a common enemy to exterminate, creating a peace treaty between each nation… Perhaps I will be seeing two Kingdoms trying to knock on my door…

Was I too rash with the Slime Clones that I sent? For them, Izumi is dead, so they probably hold a tremendous grudge to me, and after I put a stop to these Vampires, the Thanatos Kingdom will also hold a grudge against me. After this is done, I should do something to weaken the two nations somehow, even if small…

Perhaps I could start negotiations with the Thanatos Kingdom if I take some Vampires as hostages? But would they value their lives?

Well, if anything happens, I will have to just keep on creating more trump cards, more guardians, chimeras and stronger soldiers, technology… everything I have at my disposal that can give me some edge against these future enemies, to welcome them with open arms and surprise them before its too late. I'm confident that I can do well on my own, but I want to protect my people and my family, I can't just run away neither confront them head-on, as they could use the opportunity that I am distracted dealing with some, to strike my family in my back…

Seeing how things are getting worse and worse in Cilane, I decided to spend this day preparing myself, packing lots of food and other items and afterward, I went with most of my family towards the Dungeon to grind, cleaning every floor and obtaining the most Experience Points that I could before tomorrow. I trained and made level up each of my Chimeras equipped on me, alongside Mao who I discovered I could equip as well as Wall.

After today's grind in the Dungeon, Catterpillar and the other Chimeras evolved and became stronger versions of themselves… Catterpillar became a High Shadow Catterpillar, gaining Shadow-Attribute Magic and other stealth-related Skills. Mao and Wall still need to grind more to evolve, for now, I left them beating Undead Skeletons for the rest of the day with the other Chimeras.

[Calculating EXP gained…]

[Kireina] gained 22.067.867.000 EXP!]

[Kireina] Level increased!]

[LEVEL 064/250 EXP 11.303.582.830/38.300.000.000]

The Centaur Twins trained their Life-Attribute Magic, but it seemed to be hard to train and level up in just one day, so for the very least, they practiced the two Spells they had. One was named [Recovering Life] and the other [Life Transfer].

Both skills seemed to be purely about healing, however, the [Life Transfer] could be used to drain the life of others, in the form of their Health Points, although it was very slow, someone who trained this Skill enough could drain the life of anything surrounding them, becoming fearful warriors.

As I rested at Mady's side with Nephiana and Adelle, I began to fuse Skills, I had so many and I wanted to get this over with so I could obtain a significant boost in my abilities before starting tomorrow's journey.

Skill Fusions of the Day;

1) [Lineage of Legendary Heroes and Blessed Beasts Bloodline of Lust] + [Mounting Cavalry Talent] + [Lineage of Ancient Spectral Beasts; Nine-Tailed Phantom Fox Bloodline] + [Ancient Lineage of Malicious Snakes; Jörmungandr Bloodline] + [Lineage of Fantastical Beasts; Yokai Spiritual Bloodline] + [Lesser Fire Dragon Bloodline; Lineage of Ancient Dragons] + [Giant's Bloodline] + [Blazing Ashura Royal Bloodline; Lineage of Fire Giants] + [Divine Species Bloodline; Heavenly Flames Ashura] + [Lineage of Tyrannical Giant Insects; Mathonth] + [Lineage and Blood of the Ancient Giant Wisdom Whales] + [Lineage of Chimera Beasts; Desert Adapted Monsters] + [Desert's Beastfolk Lineage] + [Divine Species Pedigree; Outstanding Talent] = [Abyss Chimeric Lineage; Divine Bloodline of Calamity Bringers]

*An awakened Bloodline that shouldn't even exist. Its powers contain multiple bloodlines and special genetic heritages, it offers all of the bloodlines and lineages abilities but combines them for stronger and more chaotic results.

Chimeras with different bloodlines and combined genetic abilities will be born, the power is chaotic but the beings born with this blood are said to both destroy the world and save it. Increases the chance for genetic diversification in children and descendants. Kireina was already receiving most of these bloodlines' abilities before this, so its increase in power to her strength is not as much as those who would be born with it.

Children who have older Bloodlines will receive an update when they are born, already grown-up children don't receive this update, as it only happens when they were born.

2) [Five Mystic Cursed Tails] + [Phantasmagoric Tails Creation; 2] + [Phantasmagoric Tails Creation; 3] + [Greater Spectral Tail Creation; 4] + [Mystical Nine Tails of the Phantasmagoric Moonlight Fox] + [Twelve Spectral Scarlet Blooded Tails Creation] + [Basilisk's Phantom Tail; One Hundred Whip Attacks] = [Calamity Abyss Demon Phantasmagoric Living Chimera Tails; Level 1]

*Creates countless phantom tails that resemble the tails of monsters that the user has eaten, they can shape into a snake, wyvern, wolves, or dragon heads and attack on their own by using the user's skills and spells. Tails can be shapeshifted into any form that the user has eaten, even fluffy foxtails. If used with another skill, perhaps…

3) [Sin of Lust Impossible Flesh and Blood of Heroes and Beasts; Divine Elixir Physique] + [Phantasmagoric Flesh and Bones] + [Giant Red Demon Flesh and Blood] + [Ancient Volcano Turtle Charcoal Flesh and Blood] + [Ancient Dragon's Flesh and Blood] + [Calamity Dragon of Bloody Chaos Flesh and Blood] + [Ancient Wisdom Whale Adamantine Bones and Muscles] + [Phantasmagoric Ethereal Physique] + [Blazing Ashura Physique] + [Demon Overlord of the Sin of Lust Incomprehensive Supernatural Body] + [Unstoppable Resiliency of the Ancient Guardian Wyvern] + [Divine Species; Heavenly Flames Ashura Physique] = [Illogical Chimera Physique; Divine and Ancient Flesh and Blood of the Phantasmagorical Existence]

*After fusing so many flesh and bones alongside Physique Skills, a new Physique Skill was born. The power that it harbors can let the user freely change parts of its body into an ethereal and phantom form. Resistance and Strength had already surpassed the limits of its species and has become something else that shouldn't belong in a mortal.

Hidden power is waiting to be awakened. With the use of Shapeshifting and other skills, the user can divide its body and create countless phantom clones that can, later on, become physical, the repeated use of this may come with several burdens to the user as its existence as a mortal cannot take on much of it. Increases all physical capabilities (Strength, Defense, HP, and Stamina).

4) [Venomous Ghost Psyche] + [Blazing Phantasmal Psyche] + [Spectral Ghost King Psyche] + [Heavenly Blazing Psyche] + [Concentrated Phantasmagoric Dark Matter Essence] + [Phantasmagoric Slime King Essence] = [Void Phantom Essence Empress Psyche]

*A "psyche" Skill that increases the power of the user's Soul, it increases Soul Stats partially and it also gives it the ability to move like a ghost and even expand outside of its physical body to attack or defend on its own, further solidification needs higher Ranks of Soul.

5) [Charming Empress of Lust Unique Cursed Spear, Axe, Sword and Bow Techniques: 62] + [Ultimate Sword Technique: Silver Rainfall of the Seven Stabs] + [Ultimate Magic Crossbow Technique: Spiritual Arrow Barrage] + [Ultimate Claymore Technique: One Hundred Cross Smashes] [Thunder Lance Mercurius Divine Techniques: 10] + [Grandmaster Veteran Sword, Magic Crossbow, Claymore, Dragoon Lance and Shadow Dagger Techniques: 35] + [Spiritual Wind Long Bow Ultimate Technique: Windstorm Arrow Catastrophe] + [Gemstone Short Bow Technique: Sapphire, Ruby and Emerald Arrows] + [Sin of Lust Arts; All Technique Combo] + [Flame Bandit Technique; Four Blazing Arms Assault]+ [Blaze Berserker Technique; Firestorm Axe Whip] + [Giant Blaze Axe Techniques; Overwhelming Burning Slaughter] + [Holy Guard Arts: Tornado of Holy Slashes] + [Knight Arts: Shield Bash] + [Ocean Arts: Oceanic Strokes] + [Blazing Martial Arts; Four Fists Barrage] + [Heavenly Fists Arts; Onslaught of the Eighth Purgatory] + [Impossible Annihilation Rampage and Battle Style of the Unleashed Demon Overlord] = [Transcendental Battle Arts; All Weapon and Fist Grand Master; Level 1]

*A culmination of countless Techniques and Arts Skills, it concentrates all of the knowledge of each technique which is scattered from different skills into a single All Weapon and Fist Grand Master Skill. Each technique which made this skill is present but the new one which combines each other also appears, as the Skill levels up, new, never-seen Arts will appear to be used. Similar to the Library Skill, this Skill absorbs any technique or art that could be fitting learned by the user automatically. Each technique has its own Stamina and MP Costs, the use of these techniques and arts can be used in different weapons or all at once, releasing a powerful blast of power, which is what creates a technique.

*A combination of several boosting techniques and abilities gave birth to this Skill, it possesses each skill and their effects into different "spells". There is no Love-Attribute Magic, but this is something strangely close to this. Each "spell" cost their own amount of MP or Stamina, as the Skill levels up, the spells become stronger and new ones appear.

*Summons giant Arms and Jaws of a giant and terrifying demon, a skill like this shouldn't even exist. Its power is equivalent to Kireina's stats, but its creation can be abused and overwhelm enemies with countless of these. Their resistance to physical damage is a little bit better than before, when they "die" they explode in a Chaos-Attribute magic explosion, it can inflict several status effects at random… If used with another Skill, perhaps…

*A power that should only belong to gods, yet a mortal possesses it. By using high quantities of Magic Points (MP), Soul Energy, and Stamina, one can generate elements from thin air, manipulate them, and even materialize them with other certain skills. Alongside this, the user can mold such elements, fuse them and form artificial living beings named golems, with enough magic and soul energy, golems can be made to exert almost any task. Kireina can now mold the world around her as she pleases… with a very high cost of course.

Cost; varies.

*A strange and unique Skill that shouldn't even exist, only some gods possess an ability similar to this. Made up by the countless weapons that the user ate, and also by the ones that were fused to create weapons, this Skill can materialize such weapons or even mix them up and edit them, even to the point of merging with the user's armor or Aura. This Skill possesses more uses than what it seems, but Kireina is excited about summoning countless swords, lances, and axes for real like one of the characters in Earth's animes that she liked.

Cost; varies.

12) [Repulsive Venomous Stench Spinning Gas Bomb] + [Thief Arts: Venomous Needle Shot] + [Corrosive Venomous Bullets] + [Poisonous Heart Bomb] + [Poisonous Balloon Bomb] + [Charming Empress of Lust Poisonous Abyss Body] + [Venomous Blood Tattoo Curse] = [Demon Overlord of Lust's Corrosive Venomous Abyss Physique; Poisonous Bomb Body; Level 1]

*A strange skill that may resemble some creatures, but it's unique enough to be considered unique in certain areas. Allows the user to change its body into that of venomous, toxic, and poisonous materials, it also allows the user to freely control this poison, generating bombs, needles, bullets and even solidifying it, using its own body to coat its armors, weapons, etc.

It's similar to Poison Attribute Magic but it has its special abilities that can surpass certain spells, while it falls short in others. This Skill, coupled with Kireina's other abilities becomes a dangerous power. The user can freely edit its poison to do certain things. Certain toxins and chemicals can be used for alchemy and medicine, similar to Amiphossia's venom, but it falls short compared to her.

Cost; varies, with more MP toxins can be edited more freely.

They can form giant hands, jaws, carapace, and even unleash abilities and magic spells on its own.

By infusing it inside of her body, she can enhance all of her capabilities. Expanding her Aura can create a grand domain, pressure and fear can also be exerted with even more power.

As the skill levels up, the armors become stronger, sturdier, and easier to control.

Cost; varies.

16) [Parallel Head Processing] + [Seductive Empress of Lust Thundering Tireless Mind] + [Sin of Lust Cunning and Parallel Thinking: Masterful Lier] + [Brain Share] = [Demon Overlord's Parallel Mind Processing and Brain Share; Level 1]

*An updated Brain Share, after so many days, Kireina has finally found enough skills that could be fused into it for a positive increase of efficiency. It grants the ability to have even more parallel minds, not being restricted by only three, but more than three can exert a high pressure in the user's main mind. Each Parallel mind can also posses' other parts of the body easier and also have their own Parallel thinking and multi-tasking capabilities.
