Epic of Caterpillar

Chapter 985 - Unfolding Events

Her gleaming yellow-gold eyes seemed relaxed, as she flew through the heavens of her divine realm and reached her large palace, sitting above her large throne leisurely.

Several figures appeared around her, all kneeling, they were countless of Heroic Gods, former Heroes she gave birth to in the past generations. They were all raised to godhood and served her diligently now, kneeling before her as if she were the pinnacle of everything within their lives.

They were easily her most devoted, and her army of undying gods too.

A particular group of them seemed shinier than the rest, they possessed Virtues.

Virtues were the opposite to Sins, in the world of Genesis, or at least within the Realm of Vida, Sin and Virtues were powerful powers, or skills, or abilities that were birthed by the system. Their power contains unlimited potential for growth, and they could quite literally make their users as strong as Gods.

As there were Realm Menaces, there were also Commandments, the equivalent of them, who held Virtues. Usually, only a few would arise as the generations went by and new Epics were born.

However, this time and age, Agatha had been cheating the system, and slowly gathered each Virtue over the generations, changing their mortal recipients as she made them into Gods one by one…

This way, she always had such powers at her side, and had monopolized them into obeying her! And they were seven of such powers, enough to give her an immense amount of power whenever she fused with them… A secret no one knew she could do.

She had decided to never raise a God with the Virtues because when a mortal became a god with a sin of virtue, this power would fuse with their souls permanently and become their divinities. And the only way to take them out would be by destroying this person\'s soul! Perhaps the Supreme Goddess of Souls could also do it without destroying it, but because she preferred to never do this to begin with, there was no problem nor any need to ask a Supreme, which might end up ruining her secret plans.

All the Commandments resembled beautiful mend and women of different sizes and shapes, their eyes gleamed with bright colors, and they were each one, a perfect recipient for the Virtues.

She had carefully selected them across the Epic users within the central continent, and these seven knights, mortal knights brought by the heroic gods at her side, were all the ideal and perfect recipients.

"All seven virtues…" she said, smiling at the heroes as she admired their divine-like auras of virtue.

The power they exuded was tremendous, enough to inspire her for greater goals. She watched at these knights as not people, but as trophies which she felt very proud of, she glanced at them with a smiling and sadistic expression.

However, a second after, her graceful expression distorted itself into one of anger…

"Tch…!"

She glanced at the side as she recalled what shew knew about Kireina…

She had seven sins and seven virtues. And due to this, she became… the goddess of sins and virtues. Aside from that title, she had also recently become the Great Goddess of Gula, a special type of new sin, something upgraded… and weirdly enough, each time she ranked up, it seemed like she gained a new divinity, something that usually didn\'t happen in Gods.

She also evolved! Although they didn\'t knew that.

It seems that because Kireina used the Divine Evolution Skill, she pretty much cheated the system, and after undergoing a calamity, she evolved like a divine beast. Gods didn\'t evolved, and only gained new divinities per Realm, not rank. Effectively, what Kireina was doing was cheating and gaining even more power out of evolving and picking small new divinities each time she did!

It was soon that she would evolve again and pick more of these super evolved sins divinities, and the Gods had no idea how she was doing this to begin with, but her power was already getting as big as a middle to peak Great God…!

But there was something else that annoyed Agatha…

"How can that being get the virtues too?! Afar all this time, I still can\'t find a clue!"

She had no idea how Kireina got the virtues if she had them right here. Maybe she could believe the sins… but the virtues?! They were here!

And later on it was confirmed that the three Realm Menaces were still alive, raising even more questions.

From where Kireina got these sins and virtues from?!

Out of her ass?

No One knew where she got them! But this wasn\'t without a reason. The Dungeon Shop was unknown because the System Gods had managed to suppress it after the initial "launch" so only those that got it in that certain time lapse could enjoy it now.

But even more, as they were extremely biased, they increased the prices to astronomical levels to anyone but Kireina, and also closed most of the sins and virtues being sold there. So although some had initially seen them, when they finally got enough dungeon points, they were gone, and everything was now even more costly as well…

Only some of the bold gods who dared to eat a dungeon core realized this, while most remained unaware of everything, Agatha didn\'t knew either, she was completely in the blue over all of this, she had no idea that she could had gotten them too if she were to be fast enough to catch up to what others were doing! But how could she know if it was so secretive? She was way too busy being a Great Goddess… or something.

Some speculated that she lied somehow, and others said that her divinity had nothing to do with possessing the actual sins and virtues. Others said that she was bullshitting her way somehow, but the most realistic thought that she had a backer, maybe the system gods or the system master, who were the only ones capable of creating more sins and virtues, and they used their power to gift them to her.

But the thing was… Agatha was furious!

"WHY?! WHY someone else has my precious virtues? And why there are more?! Gggrrr…! I guess… this just gives me even more drive to slaughter that filthy demon of lust and get all of that power she had stockpiled!" she said, as her heroic gods spoke.

"Indeed, my lady, we shall slaughter her together!"

"Yeah, together!"

"My lady, for you, anything!"

"Maybe as one we might be devoured, but many at the same time can easily overpower her!"

"If we all go against her while using our lady\'s power, victory is secured…"

"And then, our lady will be able to raise to Supreme Goddess, and reign supreme in the realm- No, the world!"

Agatha was, after all, the Great Goddess closest to becoming a Supreme Goddess in all of the Genesis, she was almost grasping it! She needed a little push, and she could become a Supreme and join the rest…

"That\'s right… Now, how\'s that kid doing?" asked Agatha.

"Isaac, my lady?" asked one of the commandments.

"Yes, the one I told you to take care of, I expect he had already become strong enough, right? After all, he possesses the blessing of the supreme god! Within that Blessing comes the special effect that lets her have a fixed chance on inflicting direct damage into the demon\'s Origin Core! With that, he should be used greatly to damage her as much as we can and then we can slaughter her!" said Agatha.

"Isaac is doing rather well, through this whole time he had progressed by leaps and bounds, and soon enough he will become a Great God… His entire team is also around Rank 6 or 7 of the God Realm. The Supreme God retainers had nourished and nurtured him well. He is the sword of the supreme god, so he must confront the demon, as he was destined to," said the virtue of chastity.

Possesing the immense power of damaging her origin core directly with his skills, Isaac had the best change at defeating or at least weakening Kireina greatly!

He was made for this, and his blessing and the growth he received were all those of a Legendary Heroic Great God now! He was raising to greater heights of godhood soon enough.

Much like Kireina, he had been given immense growth boosts from the divine entities, and he was sharpened and forged into the ultimate weapon for their desire of defeating Kireina once and for all.

Although what they didn\'t knew was that the Supreme behind this, the Supreme God of Star Oceans was laughing at this without stopping. He was a jester-like character, he did all of this for his own amusement, and was actually rotting not for his hero but for Kireina to an extent. He was fascinated with her growth and powers, and saw within her the perfect tool he needed to overturn this world and be freed from the chains of the world\'s will, so he could finally escape this world and go to the outer universe to continue cultivating instead of being confined in this world!

Actually, all supreme gods aimed at this, but the world\'s will would never let go of the pillars of the world! After all, they were the ones maintaining everything together as it was. It was impossible to let them go, impossible! No way at all!

Due to this, not many of the Supremes agreed with her… and even this jester-like supreme god was looking forward to enhancing Kireina\'s growth with his challenge.

Unaware of the greater schemes of those above her, Agatha foolishly believed in this supreme god and thought of him as a very considerate man… he was such a righteous supreme god!

The Supreme God of Star Oceans didn\'t liked Agatha, however, and found her hideous and the ideal puppet for the World\'s Will, so if she were to die before becoming a Supreme, it would be for the best, or so he considered.

But Agatha had no plans on dying! She was going to become a Supreme at all costs!

"Hm… thought that grotesque lion seemed suspicious. And… Ugh, it will be a pain to deal with Ova. Can\'t she just die and lend me all her power instead? I could use it better than her, that\'s for sure…" she sighed, as she began daydreaming about killing the annoying Ova and stealing her powers.

Suddenly, however, she received a call, a Divine Call from a being high above her!

"Eh?!"

"Agatha, I have chosen you as part of my council, connect to my divine realm through this connection and come here as a divine avatar, we must speak as soon as possible…"

This was the message, the divine oracle.

Sending divine oracles to great gods was near impossible.

Unless they were of a higher realm than the great god itself… and this message was done by someone way above her.

The World\'s Will!

"The World\'s Will! She wants to invite me?! I can\'t believe it! T-This is my opportunity! At long last… the opportunity I\'ve always been waiting for! At long last!!!" she cried, as she immediately did as the voice told her, using the "Strand" of divinity left by the world\'s will, she infused her consciousness and power into it and suddenly traveled through space into a immense divine realm of heavens and light.

FLASH!

"A-Ah… this place… Oh! I am a Divine Avatar?!"

Agatha glanced at herself as she looked like a beautiful white dove in her divine avatar, he other avatars of the two supreme goddesses with the world\'s will greeted her, alongside the world\'s will enormous presence, a gigantic sphere of blinding white light…

"Welcome, Agatha… I\'ve deemed you fit to join us, make sure to work hard to met my expectations," said the world\'s will.

"A-Ah… Y-Yes!"
