Epic Of Caterpillar

As the day went by, I gathered my entire family and went to Morpheus's Dungeon, in the usual third biome, which was often cleared of monsters by my citizens.

The god's astral projections descended inside Morpheus's Dungeon while surrounding my family.

Amongst them, there was a new face, a giant dragon with twelve golden eyes, purple and gold scales, long yellow jewel horns, and two pairs of wings, his size was around sixty meters.

He seemed intimidating, even more than Merveim and Hodhyl, but he also had a passive and calm personality. He was being rather shy.

"H-Hello…" he said.

A giant dragon god of thunder, stuttering?

"Hello, Nyzzet, it is a pleasure to meet you. I am Kireina, well, you might have already guessed" I said.

"Yes… I am thankful for your benevolence, Kireina-sama… Now that I have joined the Pantheon, I've felt more relieved…" said Nyzzet.

"I'm glad to have you relieved of your concern. I hope that you can help us all in the future… at least if you don't want to fight, there are other ways that you could assist us" I said.

"Yes! I gladly will… anything but fighting…" said Nyzzet.

"Oh, Kireina-sama. About Nyzzet's dungeon, he'll give it to ya as well!" said Merveim in between chuckles.

"Yeah, we convince him of being more generous," said Hodhyl.

How exactly did they convince him…?

Well, that's not of my concern.

"That's nice, I will go and conquer that dungeon in a few days then," I said.

"Sigh… I hope Kireina-sama can take good care of it" said Nyzzet.

"Don't' worry, even when I steal dungeons, I am capable of sharing the Divine Energy acquired from it to its original god… though with Omgramid, I didn't share anything so he fell" I said, remembering the God of Sand and Earth.

"I-I see… well, I have saved a large quantity of Divine Energy, so I don't think that will be my destiny…" muttered Nyzzet.

As some of the gods greeted my family and my children, who they had grown familiar with, Agatheina noticed a slight change in my Aura, that the other gods did not.

"Kireina-sama… T-That scent! Is that… Light Attribute Divinity?!" she shouted.

The rest of the gods immediately stopped what they were doing and directed their gazes towards me.

"It's true…" said Bovdohr, the Demigod of Eclipses.

"I can feel it… Kireina-sama, you cannot hide it any longer! Such brightness! Such splendor!" said Nomera, the Demigoddess of Dawns.

These two gods had a strong connection with the Light Attribute and were immediately able to sense my new divinity.

"…Eh? Wait a minute, it's true" said Levana.

"Could it be?" asked Morpheus.

"Kireina-sama, did you kill a Light God… it is not a demi-divinity either, it is a true divinity," said Maeralya.

"This…." Muttered Marnet.

"Yes, well. I had already told you what I did to Apollo before, right? A few days ago, the assimilation and erosion of his Divine Soul finished, and after connecting back with my split soul that assimilated Apollo, I acquired the divinity by default" I said.

"So that's how it is! Kireina-sama is really the greatest and strongest being in this Realm, no… in Genesis!" said Agatheina, with a fanatical and enamored look.

"Such a way to kill a god! As it even been heard of before?" asked Merveim.

"In a way, Apollo wasn't killed. He just became one with me, and I slowly absorbed his consciousness and will" I said.

"That's… terrifying… even us gods cannot do something like that," said Morpheus.

"Was it the same with Geggoron and Megusan?" asked Levana.

"Yes, more or less," I said.

"Such a power… When gods like us steal the divinities of other gods, we usually use the 'Divinity Devour' Divine Technique, which teals the divinity of the soul of a weakened god, the weakened god, without a divinity on his soul, would slowly die… but what Kireina-sama did is something completely different…" said Morpheus.

"Well, there are some Demon Gods that are capable of eating other gods for their powers… but even them don't end up straight up merging with the preyed god. This is only possible with Kireina-sama's incredible and varied list of abilities which she can converge with her Divinity Devouring Skill!" said Agatheina.

"In a way, it was as if I had become Apollo as well, but my original mind was stronger, so my mind was not affected. The only thing I ended up acquiring was Apollo's memories" I said.

"I wonder how it could feel… well, perhaps I don't want to know," said Hodhyl.

"But Kireina-sama, what about Apollo's physical body and Divine Realm?" asked Maeralya.

"The way how I assimilated Apollo's soul was slow and steady, his physical vessel is being used as a second body of mine as of now. His Divine Realm has not changed in the slightest because I have willed it… but it might end up converging with my Inner Realm skills if I do something too rash with it. My split soul, which is sharing its mind with me, is currently acting as Apollo, her acting skills are flawless, and she has not been detected yet" I said.

"This is… too good! If we can plan things accordingly, we could even raid the Divine Realm of Apollo while Zeus, Athena, and the rest of that family are together, and end their plans once and for all! I would gladly bathe in their blood!" laughed Agatheina devilishly.

"Agatheina, don't be so hasty, proper planning will be needed… we cannot be reckless in doing such a thing… but the possibility is there," said Hodhyl.

"That is… hopefully, you don't invite me into that raid…" said Nyzzet.

All of the gods glanced at Nyzzet with angered expressions which made him shut up.

"Anyways, I have planned a few things that I could do with Apollo beforehand. One of them includes convincing his family to join my Pantheon… though if Apollo begins acting strange all out of a sudden, it might end up awakening suspiciousness. For now, no rash decisions can be made. Gathering info from what he hears and talks with his family is valuable enough" I said.

Then, I explained to them about how I acquired Blaze, about Hephaestus's moves, and Athena with Zeus and his family trying to raise heroes in Azuma to kill me.

Blaze, who was staying silent behind me through the conversation finally stepped ahead and greeted the gods.

"Well, hello! I never expected Kireina-sama to have so many god allies…" she said.

She had my appearance, as she was using a clone of my body as her vessel, although its appearance had mutated a bit due to her divinity, such as the skin color, the hair becoming orange flames, and the blazing red fairy wings. The original clothes changed as well, as she had now a dress made out of flames and small red horns began to grow on her forehead.

"Kireina-sama, you mean that you stole Hephaestus's sealed daughter, the one he uses every day to forge artifacts?!" shouted Levana, almost falling unconscious.

"Yes… Levana, it was not intentional. I was transported to Hephaestus's Dream World randomly as I slept, it is not my fault" I said.

"And you even stole the Dream World as well? Impressive, Kireina-sama! Your power knows no bounds! You just ate Geggoron and you can already do such a thing?! Even Freyja would be raging right now if she were to know!" laughed Agatheina.

"Freyja… that's the Great Goddess of Dreams and Nightmares… thankfully she doesn't live in this Realm, but she already knows about me, Hephaestus told her about what happened and then he later came to the conclusion that it was all my fault. I was a bit surprised don how fast he figured things out… sometimes these gods have enlightening moments before falling once again into stupidity and ignorance" I said.

The rest of the gods nodded to my words.

"I am very thankful for Kireina-sama rescuing me! She has given me a lot of freedom! Always being sealed in that place… for thousands of years… I was going insane! Well, I had already given up on escaping, but one day, she just came out of nowhere! Although her form back then was that of a giant golem made out of rocks and lava! Since that moment that I fell in passionate love with her! And decided to accompany her! We are essentially always together now, as our souls are mixed and harmoniously existing! Isn't that romantic~?" said Blaze.

Agatheina, Hodhyl, Maeralya, and Nomera glanced at her with great envy, much like my wives yesterday.

"Kireina-sama, how could you?! Wasn't I going to be your first goddess woman?! You promised it to me!" protested Agatheina.

"I never promised anything like that…"

"But weren't we going to make a new race of strong children?!" protested Hodhyl.

"I never promised you that either…"

"What about Cat Vampires?!" added Maeralya.

"What?"

"Kireina-sama, I am very glad about you finding your partner with Blaze-sama!" said Nomera, with a bitter and forced smile.

"Nomera, you're terrible at acting…"

"Uwah! Why are they so angry?!" asked Blaze.

"Sigh… first of all, Blaze and I are engaged neither are we going to make children any time soon. I already have over twenty wives to love and take care of. Second, stop protesting like that, please, I never promised anything of the like to you…" I said.

"Oh! So you haven't done anything yet?" asked Agatheina.

"Really?" asked Hodhyl.

"Is that so?" asked Maeralya.

"W-Well…" said Nomera.

"No, stop looking at me like that… your desperation is unbefitting of goddesses, maintain a bit of decency… please," I said.

"Okay! If it's only your souls being bonded… then it is fine by me… As long as I get the first kid between all the goddesses, I am fine with it" laughed Agatheina.

"Alright, I think it's fine… as long as we one day have a strong child!" said Hodhyl.

"Hopefully, you don't falter against me in bed when that day comes, Kireina!" said Maeralya.

"I am fine with anything! As long as… Kireina-sama can give me some love as well someday!" said Nomera.

Their behaviors make no sense, they are nuts.

Why are these goddesses so desperate over copulating? They are gods, they do not need to reproduce so much if they are pretty much ageless.

Anyway, I decided to present the gods my Dream World (or universe) and Bilili, which they already knew of but wanted to see in more detail.

Bilili was a bit shocked it seems. Because the Dream World of Hephaestus appeared in my Dream World out of nowhere, and he had to move it to an area that would not affect nearby planets' gravitational force.

The dream world of Hephaestus appeared as a bubble, where the volcanic lands were, it floated around the Dream Universe until Bilili stabilized it and settled it in a place far away from most galaxies.

Its size was immense, at least that of a giant yellow sun. When anything entered inside, they would be transported to those volcanic lands, where a giant golem governed the place… which was the avatar that I used to travel in there.

The giant golem seemed to be calm and rather peaceful, and when I spoke with it with my Aura Clones, I discovered that it had become something similar to another alter ego of myself.

The residual mind and memories gave it a consciousness independent of me, but also connected.

The moment I interacted with it, we managed to create a connection.

Anyways, this golem can move outside of the Volcanic Dream World and explore the Dream Universe, but much like Bilili, it cannot get outside to the 'real world'.
