Epic of Caterpillar

Chapter 1417: Transmigration!

Something completely insane had happened! Just after having technically died, I found myself within some very weird place known as "The Root" where everything is supposedly archived? What the heck does that even means? Does that means that even those that die and have their souls destroyed still have somewhere to rest? It was very intriguing, this place seemed to connect to not just other Universes, but whole other Dimensions and Timelines! It was very strange.

However, the bad thing was that I wasn\'t even able to see more of it, even though I was told there were more versions of my own existence out there and that I was merely just another version of "Kireina", I wasn\'t able to get more info in that regard because I was dragged elsewhere. However, from what I learned, it appears that there is some sort of Multiverse shenanigans where there are multiple versions of me, Kireina!

That\'s batshit crazy, how can I even cope with that? Does that mean I could one day meet another "me"? Well, I have done it multiple of times already with my clones, so that\'s not so weird for me now that I think about it…

And when I finally opened my eyes, I felt like I finally had a body. I was me! And… Huh? I looked around my surroundings and found something quite insane. There was a giant throne room, and countless people wearing knight armor lined up from left to right, there was a beautiful elf magician in front of me looking at me in horror, and there was a guy with a long white beard resembling a king sitting right in front of me with a princess at his side, a blonde beauty.

"Please, Hero, save the Kingdom from the Demon King- What the heck is that?!"

The King and everyone else was horrified when they saw me.

"Hey, what\'s wrong? Am I not pretty?" I wondered, looking at my own body, I realized there was something extremely wrong going on.

I was a dog-sized caterpillar. Oh well, back to my humble beginnings I guess.

…

No, okay, but seriously, what the heck is this? Don\'t tell me all these Isekai stories are actually true and you can get summoned as a hero by some random alien Kingdom to defeat a fucking Demon King! Wait, this is real! I can\'t believe I just reincarnated into a caterpillar again but just because I was summoned!

"A-A giant caterpillar?!" Asked the King furiously. "How dare you summon a mere familiar?! This is not a stupid contest for who summons the most random familiar! Arrest the summoner!" The King pointed his cane at the elf girl in front of me, she actually had a very clumsy expression in her face.

"Ueeehhh?! I didn\'t do anything wrong! I did summon he hero like you said! It was in here, in the book!" The girl cried. "I just did what the book said!"

"Silence you wench! You\'re lying!"

"You dare mock the King?!"

"You\'re in a human nation, stupid elf woman, do you think you can offend the King just because you\'re the Shrine Maiden of the Elf Tribe of the Hardwood Forest?"

"Merely having the [Summoner] Blessing doesn\'t mean that you\'re somehow higher than the King!"

"She must have lied, this is a farse, she didn\'t summoned any hero!"

"W-Wait! Please! I can try to summon him again!" The Elf girl kneeled before everybody, as the King was very impatient. The princess at his side told her father to calm down.

"King Domas, please wait and listen, maybe she committed a mistake, she could summon the hero now if she tries again, be more merciful!" The princess said.

"My daughter Elettia…" Sighed the King. "Fine, one more time!"

"A-Alright!" The elf girl said, as she suddenly began to conjure a spell! Wow, it feels like I am watching an anime.

"Oh, hero of legends, please hear our call, we need you!" Cried the Elf, as she said some words I couldn\'t understand, they sounded weird and babbled, but this summon Spell looked pretty crazy, maybe I should eat that book.

FLAAAASH!

A magic circle emerged right before me, as something began to surge from it! It was a…

A log!

Yeah, it was a piece of wood.

Wow, is her summoning skill gacha-based or something?

"UWAAAAAAH! WHY?!" Cried the elf girl.

Everyone in the throne room suddenly fell silent, as they looked at the elf girl menacingly… The King and even the Princess, they all lost their temper over the clumsy girl.

"L-Let me do it again!"

FLAAASH!

And another time, she summoned a… a rock.

"UWAH! A-Again!"

FLAAAASH!

And the fourth time, she summoned a… Huh, that\'s a piece of cloth? Oh, a handkerchief, and of good quality.

"N-No… My mana ran out…" The girl cried.

"…"

"…"

"…"

"…"

Oof, things are getting pretty eerily out of the sudden, I know how to read the room pretty well and I am pretty sure shit is going to get bad! H-How can I get out of this situation though?! I got an useless summoner that summons crap, and I am a caterpillar, a cute green and… purple with red and black colors? I am definitely not a normal caterpillar like the one I was right after reincarnating.

And I can feel the elements of Chaos, Darkness, Illusion, Emotions, and Dreams and Nightmares within me… And that\'s without saying that I am emanating a slightly divine aura? I am not a Supreme Goddess, not even a Goddess now actually, I was nerfed to the ground! …But I still got some divinity as the starting point!

Oh, can I see my status? No, I sent Andromeda away before I died! Uagh! All my Path Jewels are gone too? No way! And… my weapons too, I just put egos on them! What the heck? And… well, what else can I do now?!

"Apprehend her and throw her into the dungeon! …And kill that ugly thing and get it out of my sight!" Said the King Ruthlessly.
