Epic of Caterpillar

173 Scripted Event Athetosea Great War 17/?; Prioritizing a Slave Over the Hero

As I was commanding my troops, the Hero of Raging Winds finally showed up, with a raging face he attacked me with his slicing winds. However, I only had to summon my armor with the properties of a [Wind Orb], the skills that I obtained after devouring the meat of the boss from the Wind Shrine Dungeon, to completely nullify his attacks, even more, due to my high Wind Affinity and Manipulation, I managed to use his wind attacks at my advantage, increasing the power of my armor.

His first impression was already underwhelming, but he kept attacking me with his Wind Arts, he created four massive bursts of wind and directed them to all my angles, without leaving any blind spot. He then pounced over me while creating a sword made of concentrated wind, and tried to stab me in the chest with his amazing speed.

That only caused him to get scared once again, as all his attacks were once again absorbed by my armor. I was about to embrace him with my arms and asphyxiate him right in the spot but he sensed my intentions in time, flying away with a scared expression.

So, this is the famous Hero of Raging Winds? And he has such an uninteresting face…

I summoned my [Legendary Relic]; [Thunderstorm Glimmer Odachi; Raiu], that I obtained after easily killing the Elemental Knight of Thunder and flew at max speed towards him while using my skill; [Illogical Propulsion Speed], which gave me an advantage in speed over him for a few seconds, creating a tail of multiple colors in my wings.

The idiot was taken aback as I slashed his face with my Odachi, releasing powerful purple lighting that kept his way through the entire battlefield, devastating lots of humans on its way.

However, he suddenly transformed into a mirage of wind as he slowly dissipated, he tricked me.

I was quite surprised as I immediately sensed his presence above me, he had a very tired expression and his face was full of horror… Maybe he didn\'t think I would be this strong?

Just to tease the poor Hero a bit, I roleplayed as a malicious villainess.

"Oh? Where is my meal going? Fufufu…"

At this, he immediately yelled;

"T-Tch! Y-You monster, have you already devoured all the ones you killed?!"

"Fufufu… Perhaps… But I\'ve been patient, I really want you to be my main dish…"

As I said these words, I made sure to give him a wicked and dominant smile, just to break him even more, making him think that I was completely insane. Well, I am a little bit…

"M-Main dish?! I\'m going to kill you before that happens!!!"

As the Hero said these words, he braced himself with his green wings once again as he flew at max speed towards me, while raising his invisible bow, he shot more than one thousand small arrows, that were made of an incredibly concentrated wind, slicing even the air.

To his barrage of arrows, I received him with my own aura, molding it like a shell, I blocked each of his attacks with ease, while using my armor to absorb the arrows captured, further increasing the power of my armor, it seems that it was close to evolving. The Hero\'s magic is really full of power.

He was once again surprised by my actions.

"Aah?! H-How can you just be immune to all my attacks?! And you seem to become stronger?! But my power comes from God!"

"Well, it\'s not like I can\'t take damage, it\'s more like your attacks are too weak to cause any to begin with, what\'s your Magic stat?"

"M-My stats?! What are you talking about?! How can you talk so casually wit-"

While the idiot kept talking, I had already appraised him and saw that his stats although quite good, weren\'t anything crazy, the combination of my wives would be more than enough to completely overwhelm him. And because he was fairly strong, they will be finally able to go all out.

I commanded all my wives who had already grouped once again to play around with him, and that they could go all out as he was fairly strong. All of them were rather happy, as they glanced at the Hero with sadistic smiles.

"There are more important things for me to pick up before I have you for dinner. You are pretty lucky, now you can have fun with all my precious wives, treat them well"

"What?! What are you…?!"

As the Hero said these words, I used once again [Illogical Propulsion Speed] and flew at max speed towards my next destination. Although he tried to follow me, he was suddenly stopped by Gaby\'s massive Ghost Ship, which threw hundreds of cannon explosions towards him, making him retreat.

"Is she not even going to bother with me?!"

I made sure to tell my wives to leave him somehow alive, so the Harpy Girl can finish him off and have her revenge, alongside this, she will most likely awaken her [Epic] if she kills him.

He was quite persistent and followed me even after receiving so many attacks from Gaby, so Zehe appeared and enclosed him in a Shadow Space alongside all my wives, there he was probably overwhelmed with attacks, and its most likely looking for a way to escape.

I flew at max speed while support any of my troops, showering them with boosting abilities and casting several healing domains for them to have safe places to recover while doing this, I manipulated over twenty [Arms of Demise] as they devastated everything with their massive sizes, creating complete paths of pure meat paste and blood. These many kills are really giving me an absurd amount of EXP and my servants, a lot of the survivors will probably evolve.

As I flew towards my next target, the Champion of Psychic Eyes, I glanced over the giant tree, which was being currently set in a terrible fire, and was already being turned to ashes. While I praised the Wyvern Family for their good job, I received a new notification.

Ding!

[Conflicting [Epic], [Greater Epic of Aldoris Ferne, the Benevolent Forest Descendant] has been annihilated by [Servant/Subordinate] [Legendary Relic of the Wyvern Overlord]

[Servant/Subordinate] gained a prize reward] [Legendary Relic of the Benevolent Forest Descendant]

"Oh, it died?"

It seems that the Champion was still alive even after becoming a tree, well, not anymore.

As the giant tree finally died, its fragrance completely dissipated and it remains only released a toxic smoke that made most humans feel dizzy, while others became intoxicated. Their morale was now low and some soldiers even began to escape from the battlefield, although most were quickly caught by Redgaria\'s Undead Army.

Oh, talking about him, he has been relaxing in the outside of the battlefield while summoning countless Undead, he\'s taking things very easy, I think he was drinking tea while looking at the scene. His Undead army was obviously stronger than mine and held tremendous power alongside advanced intelligence. He mostly dedicated himself to command his troops around the entire battlefield, so no one truly escapes.

When I finally reached my destination, I saw Truhan and Celica devastating thousands of humans by themselves, Celica was wearing a new set of [Phantasmal] equipment and a weapon, it seems that Truhan gifted them to her, as he noticed that she wasn\'t the best defensively. I suppose its fine, he killed that Champion, so he deserved his price. I won\'t take them from her.

Anyways, I was able to admire the strength of a [Phantasmal] weapon, a rank higher than [Legendary], its power was outstanding and each of Celica\'s blows was able to shape the entire world, the ground trembled while the heavens distorted, it was a spectacle to behold.

In the other side, there was the fusion between the entire Slime Family, a Rainbow Slime Giantess, wearing black armor and weapons, the power of the six Slimes combined even surprised me, as they are comparable to Truhan in some extent, I can\'t believe they were originally just born while I was mass-producing slimes to kill for EXP.

Meanwhile, the Slave Team was in their own, destroying everything a usual, although the Elemental Knights overwhelmed them before, due to the Rainbow Slime support, they managed to survive and were now helping in weakening the human troops.

When I glanced over my next prey, I saw her desperate expression, as she used her eyes to shoot powerful pink rays, that could vaporize most weak soldiers and deal high damage to my commanders. She also displayed a special Arts of her own species, named [All-Seer Arts], she was able to use the psychic powers contained in her eyes to create powerful barriers to protect her and her subordinates.

Instead of killing her, I decided to enslave her instead, making her suffer for her stupid schemes and the headaches she caused me before. I think it\'s a fitting punishment… She is also a beauty and her Japanese-like demeanor and facial features are incredibly alluring to me, probably because I used to be an Otaku in my past life. There was something deep down inside of my heart that was yelling at me "Capture her!".

Approached her army as I commanded my gigantic [Arms of Demise] which quickly flew through the skies and demolished everything in my way, the only hope that Nanako Maki and her subordinates had was completely crushed as I flew towards her, roleplaying once again as a malicious villainess, I teased her a little bit.

It seems that she immediately recognized my presence and glanced at me with hateful eyes.

"I-It can\'t be…! You finally show up before me, Realm Menace of Lust, Kireina…!"

"Oho? I never thought that your beauty would increase if I saw you up close… You will really make a wonderful personal slave… Aaah~ I can\'t wait to taste your body…"

At my words, she suddenly blushed for a small second but was suddenly embraced in a disgusting feeling as she looked at me with fear and despair.

"W-What?!"

"We finally meet, Nanako Maki… I have been containing myself for this very moment, and because just killing you would be a complete waste, I have concluded that I will enslave you and make you my personal slave, aren\'t you lucky? Fufufu…"

Due to my overwhelming pressure that shifted itself like a monstrous black beast and my words, Nanako Maki fell down the ground, while quivering in fear. I really didn\'t think that I would break her with this roleplay I just did. She seems to be frailer than she appeared to be.

"Y-You…! Aaah…! You killed everyone…! You have done so many horrible things, you have ruined so many lives… You have completely doomed our Kingdom! Don\'t you have any regrets?! I have never met a fellow Demi-Human capable of doing such things! You are a complete monster, a devil to the core! Merciless! Demon! Demon!"

At her words, I shrugged.

"Sigh… Well, I\'m sorry? Bwahahaha! How about you struggle a bit before I capture you, just to make things more entertaining…? You see, my sin is beginning to ask me a lot about doing sadistic things, and I can hardly contain myself…! Fufufu…"

Nanako took my words incredibly seriously, as she stood up and braced herself with all her Psychic power, glowing in pink light. Suddenly, thousands of eyes made of pink and gold light appeared out of thin air, surrounding me in a strange space.

"All-Seer Arts; One Thousand Eyes of Judgement!"

The eyes enclosing me shined in bright pink as they began to shoot thousands of vaporizing rays towards me, and because they enclosed me in such a small space, I had to receive the thousands of vaporizing rays head-on, bathed in the terrible light, I felt a small pain, and realized that I didn\'t have my [Pain Nullification] activated.

I summoned my [Magic Reflecting Six-Armed Wyvern Armor] as I fused it with my already existing armor using the power within my forehead and chest Orbs. A crimson light shined as it fused completely, generating a dark scarlet armor with six arms, each of my shoulders had a tyrannical wyvern head and I even gained a giant tail. Now each ray would be ineffective as it bounced from my armor without any delay, not even half a minute passed as the thousand of eyes destroyed themselves and I was instantly freed from Nanako\'s attack.

She glanced at me with surprise as she didn\'t expect me to have magic reflecting ability, and she has most likely never fought against someone that could just easily reflect her attacks, which held immense power.

"M-Magic Reflection?!"

"Aaah~ It\'s still too soon… Fight more, struggle more! It\'s not fun if you don\'t… Fufufu…"
