Epic of Caterpillar

Chapter 732 - [Scripted Event: War Against Gods] 14/?: I Don\'t Care What You Are or What You Do, DIE!

While trying to use the Hyperion Fragments to their advantage, it seemed that Kireina\'s countermeasure was stronger than they had expected.

However, they were not at their full strength.

The Four Graces were connected the moment they were born, and also the moment they were raised to godhood.

Their strength could rival even their father, or be greater, as long as they were together, they were rather outmatched.

However, Kireina abused this very easy loophole, finding the perfect opportunity to grab one of them and immediately devour her.

The moment this happened, their power was greatly reduced, and the moment another one of them died the same way, if not even worst, their power lowered more.

They reached the point where their strength was not even half of their former one, and Kireina easily abused this, creating countless techniques, and improvising however she could.

Kireina was also struggling to fight and to win.

However, thanks to the help of her wives and her burning wrath, she generated new spells through the combination of them, used Skills and other abilities as much as they could, and used strange and underhanded techniques and plans to win and slowly bite down the defenses of the four graces.

Ultimately, the four standing ones, Eukleia and Philophrosyne used their last resort, the one they should had used from the beginning if they were not acting so c.o.c.ky, and decide dot fight off Kireina with everything they had.

But their control over Hyperion\'s will and soul fragments was not as masterful as Hephaestus over Helios Fragments, ultimately leading to them being overwhelmed by Kireina\'s insane battle tactics and abilities and also from Hyperion\'s will that kept attacking their minds.

Unlike Hephaestus, the Four Graces lacked a strong will and were immature and conceited. As second-generation Goddesses, they were spoiled rotten, making them too conceited at times.

Having never struggled through their lives while also never being taught anything of value by her parents unlike Kireina and her children, they became terrible at fighting the moment one of them was killed, and could barely improvise something as they struggled.

Even with all the resources given to them by their family, they used them clumsily and barely hold on, only to see each other being eaten one by one.

The moment Kireina saw how they began to kill the last group of people that was about to escape her Empire, and the moment she saw how those people that had lived their lives happily and relaxedly in her Empire, living simple and productive lives while worshiping her and giving a bit of power to her, she was dead set in making them go through utmost suffering.

Not even against someone like Geggoron had Kireina harbored so much hate, she was incredibly pissed, to the point that she was constantly barking and roaring like a monstrous fiend while laughing to her heart\'s content every time she ate one of the bastards that killed her people.

The two standing graces, Eukleia and Philophrosyne began to infuse their Divinities and all resources available to them into their bodies, while putting Hyperion\'s fragments in work once more.

Releasing blasts of light everywhere and cannons of blinding yellow glow, they slowly tried to break through this world of Shadows created by Kireina and her wives.

By using the Complete Divine Shadow Material Metamorphosis Skill, and several other Skills such as Shadow Transformation, Ambushing Shadow Horror and spells like Enshroud, Shadow World, Shadow Domain, Shadow Specter, and Darkness Mass, Kireina and her wives successfully became a being of pure and spectral darkness, generating a world of endless shadows and darkness within their interior, where they threw the two goddesses, who struggle to break in, only to find as their strength quickly dampened, they began to feel as if countless tiny beings were devouring their souls and absorbing all of their life.

Kireina had not only employed these Skills and Spells, as she had also used things such as Bacterial Nest, Soul Parasite, Symbiosis, Parasitizing Symbiosis Haven, Divine Soul Parasitism Technique, Divine Phantasmagoric Soul Group Control, Divine Phantasmal Symbiosis, and Divine Phantasmal Embodiment Skills, which she used to transform every inch of her gigantic shadow spectral body into tiny specters, ghost-like soul clones the size of bacteria that began to eat away all light.

They were specifically made to eat light, the goddesses specializations, although they would easily be destroyed with any other attribute, due to the desperation of the goddesses, they were unable to employ their other attributes, as they believed that only their light and that of the Hyperion\' fragments could fight against the endless shadows.

FLASH!

BOOM!

The two graces tried everything they had, generating countless explosions as the shadows never ended!

They could slowly hear the approaching laughter of Kireina, and her wives combined voices, their entire existence had become something completely different the moment they fused!

A being of complete darkness began to slowly eat away the Graces until they slowly began to feel exhausted, Hyperion\'s fragments weakened, as the goddesses lost control of the fragments.

Suddenly, the enormous fragments appeared right outside of their bodies, as their souls lost control of them completely!

"There!" said Kireina, as she extended her tentacles and grabbed the two fragments, absorbing them not her body.

"No! The fragments!" cried the two girls, as Kireina laughed once more.

"What\'s wrong? Do you feel a bit… anemic? Lethargic, perhaps? Sleepy, maybe?" laughed Kireina, as the two goddesses suddenly lost their balance, falling into the cold floor of this eternal world of shadows.

"Unnghh…!"

"You… monster!"

"Yeah, cry! Roar, bark! It wouldn\'t be fun if you didn\'t cry and struggled as much as you could!" laughed Kireina, launching countless spectral tentacles made of shadows, and beginning to devour the two Goddesses while they were still standing.

Flashes of light flew all around, destroying the tentacles but ultimately being overwhelmed by them, the two goddesses began to be slowly torn apart into pieces.

First their arms.

Clash!

"GGGYYAAAA!"

Second their legs.

Clash!

"N-Noooooo!"

And then, their little heads, crushing them like ants!

CRASH!

"NNGGYYYAAAAHH…!"

Their souls shrieked in agony as they lost their bodies, trying to escape as Divine Souls, thinking that they had a chance now that their bodies were no longer hindering them!

"Together… We can still… escape…!"

The two graces Divine Souls suddenly merged into a brighter and larger soul, exerting a brilliant light and trying to pierce through the darkness as much as they could!

"We must… survive!"

"We have to… We have to go back to our parents, and tell them of this monstrous being!"

"We have underestimated her…! Hurry!"

"Let\'s do it… together!"

Flash!

Suddenly, the sisters managed to break through the darkness, freeing themselves from Kireina\'s spectral shadow tentacles and her shadow world!

"We are free! Quick… Run!" they said, their combined Divine Souls of Light gleamed brightly, flashing like a meteor of light!

"Fufu, did you really thought I would let you go so easily?" asked Kireina\'s voice.

Flash!

Suddenly, the world once more turned into eternal darkness!

"Eh!?"

"What…?! Impossible!"

"Bwahaha… Bwahahahaha! Did you like it? By merging Mirage Magic with my new form, I can do a lot of tricky stuff like that! Did you like it? Did you enjoy that last drop of hope within your hearts? Did you enjoy being given some hope that you could escape and survive? That you could one day finally exert revenge for your fallen sisters?!" asked Kireina, she was playing with their minds!

Monstrous!

Grotesque!

Merciless!

Inhuman!

Yes, she was all of this, and more!

Toying with Gods as she pleased, exerting revenge over her fallen people.

She could not rest until she could clearly see the face of despair into their faces, she couldn\'t rest until she saw them suffer as much as she could!

She needed it!

She needed to appease her wrath!

The two goddesses fell with their combined divine souls into the darkness, their twisted and fused faces crying in fear.

"Mom!"

"Daddy… help!"

They cried for their parent\'s help.

Kireina could not help but feel bitterness.

How could these damned goddesses, after what they did, cry and call for their parents?!

Kireina suddenly felt strange…

Was this guilt?

She could not help but relate their cries to her children…

What would she do in such a situation if this were happening to her own child?

However, she quickly came back to reality as she saw the two goddesses combined divine souls blasting once more everywhere, screaming in anger as they insulted her.

"Let us go, you f.u.c.k.i.n.g monster!"

"Daddy will kill you!!!"

"He will tear you apart, and violate you and your disgusting family!"

"We will call Uncle Zeus to r.a.p.e all of your women and children!!!"

Then, Kireina knew that she was committing a mistake.

Why would she even think such things?

She needed to separate her own family from the rotten trash in front of her.

She even felt embarrassed for even being reminded of her children by the cries of this garbage.

"You\'re truly a rotten family, to the very core! All of you, I will devour all of your family! My own will prevail, at all cost… whatever it takes! Whatever it takes!" roared Kireina, extending her phantom tentacles towards the goddess\'s souls and then beginning to squeeze them down like ants!

"Nnngaaahhh…!"

"Geeehhh…!"

"Oh, perhaps you\'re hungry?!" asked Kireina, as she began to infuse this eternal darkness inside of the goddess\'s fused souls, inflating it like a balloon!

"NNGGGYAAAAHHH!"

The goddesses cried in agony as they sensed the darkness eating them from the inside of their very souls!

Kireina extracted the two Divine Cores from their combined souls, and ate them like candies in front of them!

"Nooo…!" they cried, as they exploded into countless soul pieces, which were then slurped by Kireina like noodles.

Kireina then felt a bit at peace now.

Although the war was unfolding outside, she gave herself the time to sigh in a bit of relief, as she slowly assimilated the powers of the four goddesses.

"Are you okay, Kireina?" asked Gaby.

"My wife…" said Adelle.

"Master…" muttered Kaguya.

"We defeated them, we had avenged our people, cheer up," said Altani.

"I… I am fine, do not worry. I might have gone a bit too mad… But as long as I am with all of you, I can endure everything. There is a lot to do outside, so let us go! My body in the Dark Steppes seems to have eaten a few of the Gods there… but it seems that she is still fighting Hephaestus," said Kireina.

"Indeed! We worked very hard, it was rather arduous!" said Oga.

"Man… I thought I was about to die many times…" said Smilkas.

"D-Don\'t ever joke like that…!" said Ocypete.

"Master, I feel even stronger now!" said Kjata.

"Killing those bitches was very satisfying!" laughed Nereid.

"Indeed~! And the delicious and sweet blood of their bodies was delectable! I cannot help but gorge on all of it," laughed Alice.

"We really did a very devilish work there~!" said Acelina.

"Four less little bitches, Hephaestus family has once more taken a big hit!" laughed Nixephine.

"I remember Blaze saying that they were terrible sisters, I am glad they are now gone~," said Nefertiti.

"Killing gods is truly something else…" said Nanako.

"Well, the power we got is pretty great too…!" said Ismena.

"Did we just get Divinity Devouring?" asked Sofarpia.

"I believe so!" said Sofelaia.

"Indeed, now that you have fused with me and devoured gods with me, you should naturally inherit the power to eat them even by yourselves later," said Kireina.

"Yaay~!" said Gaby.

"Alright! Let\'s get some god slaying done then!" said Oga.

"Hm! I can\'t help to slice them up really well! How dare they even approach our Empire?! I shall feast on their souls, ohohoho~!" laughed Acelina.

"We\'ll burn them all to ashes…" said Kjata.

"Until nothing remains!" said Kaguya.

"I like you girls\' spirit!" said Oga.

"Let\'s get to it!" said Nixephine.

"I am going to eat them too! Let\'s also go aid our chicks!" said Nephiana.

"You\'re right, hurry!" said Gaby.

"Yes, let\'s go-" said Kireina, as she was suddenly interrupted by the voice of an old man, Hyperion, the Great Titan God of Light.

"Wait a moment! Free me already!" said one of Hyperion\'s Soul Fragment.

"Free me at once! You know how long I have been sealed?!" roared Hyperion.

"We want to exert revenge, we shall aid you!" said Hyperion\'s fragment.

"No, you two are way too weakened now, you need to rest and get better after a bit of soul therapy. I got your other fragments in my Item Box, so I will stuff you inside of my Inner Realm: Soul World… Ah, your mother is with me as well, so look forward to that," said Kireina.

"Mother…?! You mean Gaia?!" asked the fragments, as they were thrown away inside of Kireina\'s Inner Realm.

Meanwhile, outside of Kireina\'s Domain, a fight between Gods and all of Kireina\'s allies, and children unfolded, a fight that would prove to be the greatest challenge that they would have ever undergone!
