Epic of Caterpillar

Chapter 2001 Reuniting With The Undead Team

-----

"S-She destroyed it by herself?!"

The huge wasp-like Spiritian woman glanced at the scene using her sharp, ethereal spiritual eyes. She was in complete disbelief. Although her previous creation had also been destroyed, it wasn't easy at all for her foes to do so.

They had to go completely all-out, to the point of breaking down and almost dying! Yet… for some reason Kireina did it almost effortlessly?!

And to top it all, she even created a new powerful being, capable of wielding the arts those in the Necrotic Plane can wield, completely overwhelming her insectoid army in the process!

"T-This is unbelievable! They said she could only wield Chaos, right? And her Devouring Abilities… Yet she did so much more!" Hedlehash roared in pure frustration.

She glared at the other Spiritian Gods next to her, her eyes glaring daggers into their very souls!

"Eep! L-Lady Hedlehash, we simply told you what we knew!"

"It's really hard to learn from another world, especially because most of the troops we sent there died…"

"For now, we should retreat before that monster comes for our lives- I mean, for your life!"

"Hmph…" Hedlehash was furious.

Amongst them, she had the highest authority as she was a Divine Spirit Queen, the highest rank below their Supreme Ruler, the Primordial Ruler of the entire Spiritual Plane, whose true strength could not be properly measured.

But that many speculated could be as high as a World Devourer, if not higher than that! However, if the Ruler were to channel the might of the Plane itself, they could be compared to Universal Rulers, a Primordial!

However, unlike true Dimensional Rulers, they dependent on their entire Plane for that and it was a tiring, temporary power up that they couldn't use all the time either, even less outside of their own Planes.

The reason why the Necrotic Plane Ruler, who could do the same, has been suppressed so many times by Kireina was this very reason.

All of the Ruler's Spirit Generals were Spirit Kings and Queens, which were comparably as strong as Supreme Gods on their Peak!

However, although Hedlehash knew Kireina was a Supreme Goddess, she was pretty sure she exuded a power way beyond that…

"That woman is not just in the level of a Spirit Queen." The wasp-like woman said. "I have to quickly report this to her majesty, lest we risk our entire Plane falling into pieces… It is frustrating I cannot bring her results unlike that wicked Obsidian, but information is often times said to be much more valuable than riches."

Her insectoid mandible clicked as she smiled, glancing at her weak subordinates, not stronger than mere Spirit Grandmasters, comparable to Peak Great Gods, but nothing compared to her, who was a Peak Supreme Goddess in power alone, without even including all her techniques.

However, she had the weakness of being rather frail physically, unlike the other Spirit Generals, and her powers exuded in the Concepts of Summoning, Creation, and Mutation, the three Daos she was comprehending, aside from her Core Dao, the Dao of Insectoids.

"Indeed! That is a very well thought answer, milady!"

"We should hurry up and go meet our Primordial Ruler!"

"Please, create a portal!"

These Spirit Grandmasters were cowardly cockroaches that the Primordial Ruler had given to Hedlehash to assist her into managing resources and materials for her armies… However, they were disposable.

"Oh yes, I will be going, but you guys are precious materials." Hedlehash smiled. "After my previous materials were taken away from me, I'll have to do with you five! I'm sure you'll be able to become something interesting… Even more if we use something that's right below our noses."

"W-What?!"

"W-Wait, please, milady, think this through!"

"We were not assigned to do that!"

"We've only been ordered to obey you and serve you because the Primordial Ruler said she'll spare our kingdoms…!"

"Have mercy!"

The five Grandmasters asked the wasp-like woman for mercy, but she didn't gave them any. Smiling as her very presence suppressed their powers, pushing the Spiritians to kneel before her.

"Fufu, don't worry, I promise it will not hurt, not even a little bit!" Laughed Hedlehash. "You will die to serve your Kingdoms! I am sure your family will be proud!"

She spread out her hands as countless tendrils made of spiritual crystals emerged, piercing the Spiritian's bodies and imbuing her monstrous powers into their bodies!

"Gryyaaaarrggh!"

"Please, have mercy- Gruuaargh!"

"Guuaaagggh…!"

"N-No… W-WAIT!"

"AAAGGHH…!"

Their bodies quickly started to mutate, constantly growing larger and larger and fusing together, overtaking the entire building they were hiding in and destroying it all as a mass of many colorful crystals erupted everywhere!

"Fufufu, yes, this will be enough! See? I told you that you would become just a fine piece of art!"

The malicious Hedlehash laughed as she opened a rainbow-colored portal, disappearing from the scene as the monstrosity she left behind started digging into the Spirit Sky Island's surface into its core.

"GRUOOOOHHHHHH…!"

RUMBLE!

…

Meanwhile, as Kireina defeated Hedlehash's latest chimeric creation, its red-colored crystalized core shattered open, revealing to her that there were four people inside.

And those four people were members of their own squad, which had gone missing after them and Truhan's group were sucked into the Spiritual Dao Storm.

They were four Undead Gods that had served Kireina since almost the beginning, most of them having evolved from Hobgoblins that she had recruited within the Grand Forest.

All four of them evolved into special Undead forms and were good friends with one another and especially her oldest daughter, Nesiphae.

"Ugh… Geh, what's going on? My head hurts…"

"Hahh…! Ah?! Where's my head?! I lost it!"

"It's here dummy."

"Guh, I feel like puking- Huh? Ah! Kireina-sama?!"

It was Katara, the One-Eyed Phantasmal Oni Curse Caster, Duruno, the mighty Abyssal Dullahan Warrior King, Futima, the Futatkuchi Goddess with a long black hair she could control at will, and a monstrous set of jaws at the back of her head, and Gufumin, a small and adorable Ghoul Warlock.

They were part of their own team of Undead that controlled Kireina's Undead Legion before she died, she felt relieved they were "alive", but couldn't believe they had been forcefully turned into monsters! contemporary romance

"It's you guys! I'm so happy you're alright-"

RUMBLE!

But this emotional encounter was quickly interrupted, as the neighboring floating island started shaking.

"GRUOOOOHHHH…!"
