Epic of Caterpillar

Chapter 850 - Blooia?!

According to Masta, it has not even been over a year since she and I came into existence in this world.

But it really felt like a loooong time ago since I was summoned!

I do not really remember anything before being summoned.

I think Masta once said that it was because I did not have a soul when I was summoned.

Masta acquired a special skill when she evolved into a butterfly, which gave her the ability to summon me!

She says that I was created from that moment onwards…

It really feels like a long time since that day, guuu…

It feels like old memories or even the faint memories of dreams…

But it was all real… we have reached very far now.

Anyways… what was I talking about?

Guuu…

Oh right! Now that I am a goddess, I have a way better memory, guu!

I was talking about Masta summoning me!

So, I had no soul!

Masta is too nice to me to tell me things up front, but I think I did not have a soul because I was too weak back then.

I was just a little slime, after all, a tiny blob of water.

But Masta said that I was very strong from the get-go, guu!

Masta has always been nice to me, there has not been a day without her loving and caring for me!

I love her so much!

But even without a soul, I had a small consciousness, guu.

And as I evolved, I developed it, and became more intelligent!

Although I was still forgetting stuff from time to time…

And as I grew stronger at her side, I helped her as much as I could!

I could not possibly be left behind by Masta, guu.

I was born to be at her side after all!

I remember that she once said that before I appeared, that she was very lonely…

I am glad that I was there for her afterward!

And then, Wagyu-san appeared, and our legendary party was formed, guu!

Recalling those times always fills me with happiness guu.

Now we all have families.

Even Wagyu-san! He has many children, and they are cute!

Once in a while, we gather with Masta, and the three of us simply go around her Divine Realm chatting and recalling the past, guu.

It is always nice to be with my friends!

Well, Masta is more than a friend now, as we love each other!

And when two people loooove each other, they express their love in the night!

And after that, Ailine-chan, my little daughter, was born!

I was very happy when she was born guu…

I never thought that it could be possible for someone like me to be blessed with such a talented daughter.

She was very intelligent, more than the dummy me!

I think Ailine-chan has a promising future ahead, and she was born from the love that I and Masta share.

I think I love her more than anything in the world!

Even a bit more than Masta, but I think Masta knows and is very happy about that!

Having a daughter is something very precious guu…

Although I feel like I skipped some steps of being a mother guu…

Ailine-chan didn\'t need my milk because I don\'t produce it, and she was a slime guu…

And because she was born very intelligent, she could talk right away after being born guu!

She was very special, my special little princess…

Ailine-chan, I love you!

She must be sleeping now… guuu…

What was I talking about?

Ehh…

Guuu…

Ah!

My journey with Masta!

Well, I grew stronger at her side, guu!

I could not let her grow stronger and leave me behind, not at all!

So I keep striving to grow stronger.

In this world I was summoned into by Masta, there was this amazing System that you could use to level up, so I used it as much as I could, and I somehow managed to catch up with her, guu.

I cannot be left behind at all guu!

I have to always stay at the side of my Masta… and wife!

I-It is a bit embarrassing to call her wife, I am used to calling Masta Masta since I was born…

But she likes to be called my wife, s-so I do call her like that sometimes too guu!

And she also likes it when I call her Kireina, but it feels odd, I like to call my Masta as Masta.

It has really been a long journey guuu…

We fought against the Emperors to survive in the Grand Forest, then against the armies of Redgaria… Ah, I still remember how strong the Undead King was… That was a hard fight!

Recalling that past, such enemies seem like little things to us now guu…

I never imagined back then that I would become a Goddess guu…

Well, not a Goddess, I am a Living Deity guu!

Well, not really, I am now a Rank 1 Demigoddess guu!

Just after doing lots and lots of love with Masta, my power suddenly raised, and a strange giant sphere of blue fire emerged inside of my Divine Realm guu!

But I managed to get rid of it without asking Masta for help, I didn\'t want to bother her guu…

It was not so hard either guu…

I am getting better and better at this Divine Technique stuff!

I have to simply concentrate my Soul and Skills into it and… I can do a ton of interesting stuff.

After having eaten a lot of God\'s Divinity fragments in the last war and also Masta\'s soul pieces that she insists me to eat, I am growing pretty tough guu!

I am no longer the frail and little slime guu!

I am a big girl now, so I can also take care of myself guu!

Hehe, whenever Masta realizes I am a Demigoddess now, she will get happy guu…

After fighting the Undead King there was a bunch of new challenges, it was a lot of fun but also hard… We conquered a big dungeon, saved some spirits, killed a few evil humans, then we ate another bunch, we defeated more humans, and more humans and… Athetosea was gone, then we went to a big dungeon underground where Masta ate divine energy and became very strong! And…

A lot more guu…

Up until now.

Ah! I remember how we fought vampires and Masta slapped Agatheina, hehe…

And now Agatheina is my friend and Masta\'s wife too, we share a bed now! Who would have thought guu?

She is a sweet woman, like all the other girls.

It could be said that all the girls are very cute too, I love them all guu!

And now, all of us are Goddesses, how amazing guu…

Phew… I am tired guu…

As I do sleepy time, darkness engulfs my mind.

.

.

.

"Rimuru-chan…"

Gu?

.

.

.

.

"Rimu… ru-chan…"

Gueh?

Guuuu…

.

.

.

"By the heavens… C-Can\'t you hear me? Rimuru-chan!"

GUU!

I felt it!

Someone spoke into my mind guuu!

Who is it?

Masta?

No…

Guuu… I am scared now!

Go away guu!

Or you are going to force me to get angry!

Suddenly, the voice talks to me again…

"N-No! Wait, please listen to me… I am… Blooia, the Slime Demigoddess, Rimuru-chan!"

Gueh?

Blooia… Blooia… Bloo… ia?

Who is Blooia, guu?

"E-Eeeeh?! I cannot believe you would forget about me, Rimuru-chan! How can you do such a thing guu?! It really hurts my feelings guu!"

Guehh…

She kind of speaks like me a little bit.

Wait…

Now I remember!

Ah, I have to thank the new memory of a Demigoddess, guu!

Due to my composition is pretty hard to keep memories guu…

Well, now that I have a Divine Core it\'s easy guu, but it is still getting hard to organize them guu…

"Rimuru-chan? Are you still there?"

Ah, the voice! Right!

She is… the Goddess that blessed me back then!

Without her, I would have never become humanoid-shaped, I think!

"Of course I remember you guu! What do you take me for guu?"

"A-Ah… But you clearly asked me who I was…"

"N-No… You must be… imagining things! Yeah, guu!"

"Okay then… Anyways, Rimuru-chan, aren\'t you happy to hear my voice? I am your mommy, Blooia!"

Mommy?

I do not think she is my mommy guu…

Isn\'t she just the goddess of slimes or something guu?

I mean, I am very grateful for her help and blessings guu.

But I do not see her as a mother guu!

More like a mysterious benefactor type of deal…

"You are not my mother guu!"

I boldly tell her a few truths!

But she seems saddened.

"Eeeeh? H-How can you say that of me? Sniff… Who do you think all Slimes come from? From my Primordial Slime body! …Sigh. But it is fine, I guess… I don\'t think it\'s good to force someone to recognize me as their mother if I have never interacted with them until now guu… Sniff…"

Primordial Slime?

I do not get it but… she got quite sad…

And she really seems like a nice woman guu…

"Okay, I am sorry guu! Don\'t get sad!"

Somehow, she seems to cheer up a bit.

"Eh? Okay… A-Anyways, I called you now because I was very happy to see that you are now a Demigoddess! Kireina-san has really been taking good care f you since I sent the little you to her that time… I am glad that your destiny was not like the others, who ended as EXP bags…"

"Eh? Whatchu talking about?"

"Nothing, never mind! Those souls have come back to me anyways. So, I called you to congratulate you and… ask you for a little favor…"

Eh? Favor?

But she is a goddess…

What favor does she wants from the little and humble me, guu?

Wait! I am a goddess now too!

Ah…

"Yes? As someone that helped me with her blessing and also my friends, please ask for anything!"

"Oh, Rimuru-chan, you grew to be such a nice, gentle, and beautiful young lady! It is just a little thing I want to ask you… Erm… C-Can I join your pantheon with Kireina-san?"

Guu?

GUUUU?!

What is this?!

Blooia, the mysterious slime goddess is finally joining us guuu?!

After so long guu!

It was about time, oi!

"Hmmm! Sure thing! But I have to ask Masta first about it! But I think she would gladly accept you, Blooia!"

"Aahh! Thank you very much, Rimuru-chan! I am so proud of my little girl guu!"

"Though why do you want to join so late, guu?"

"…So late? Oh… W-Well… I would have wanted to join all of you earlier but… I am rather… s-shy… and just recently I finally acc.u.mulated enough courage to… a-ask you guu…"

"Eeeh? You? Shy?! I do not believe it guu! Maybe you were being lazy guu? Or maybe you are a coward who didn\'t want to help us guu!"

"What? I am… not a coward guu! I-I… sniff… I am not a coward sniff… It\'s just that the world is scary guu… Sniff… I don\'t like to go out guu… Don\'t be bad with me, Rimuru-chan! Don\'t treat your mommy like that… sniff…"

Ehh? What\'s this?

Now I feel bad guu…

Maybe I was a bit too harsh on Blooia-san…

"S-Sorry guu… I do understand it a bit, the world is really scary! I am always scared… But at the side of Masta, I become brave guu! I think I can help you too guu!"

"Aah! Really? Y-You are such a nice daughter, Rimuru-chan! I love you!"

"D-Don\'t say that guu! You can\'t tell someone you have never met before that you love them guu!"

"I-Is that so? Okay… S-Sorry… sniff…"

"Eeeh? You are crying again?!"

And that is how I meet Blooia and how she might come to our pantheon tomorrow guu…

She is really a crybaby guu…
