Epic of Caterpillar

I used [Mighty Caterpillar Bite] in quick succession, and constantly! Each snap of my jaws constantly bite through the flesh of the chimera as I saw it had many holes over its parasitic core. The tentacles and the electromagnetic field were being dealt with Luminous, Fiere, and my Dao of Defiance, but this wouldn’t be enough, even though I was biting incredibly quickly, the chimera still had enough recovery speed and HP to tank this! I had to put more and more power into it if I wanted to end this quickly. I decided to employ the power of the Dao of [Fortune] and [Demise] as well, as I needed the extra luck and the overwhelming power of bringing things to their ultimate [Demise]!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

My bite became a gigantic and monstrous jaws made out of red and black phantasmal essence, each bite tore through the flesh of the chimera as I saw the growth of my power with each attack, my MP was being drained like crazy, but I also had my own MP and HP Drain, I was both tanking and fighting, all while draining the monsters’ energies! It was a stationary beast, but its power was quite mighty. Nonetheless, with this succession of bite attacks, it ended finally receiving more damage than it could sustainably heal, this coupled with a Miasma Vortex I just conjured with Aquamarine’s help finally went through the chimera, piercing through the center of its fleshy and spherical body!

BOOOOOMMMM!!!

“GRUUUOOOHHHH…!

“Now, Aquamarine!” I commanded, as Aquamarine changed appearance from a mass of miasmic water into a giant dagger. This time his body color and shape had changed! I-Is this because I imbued him with Chaos?! He became incredibly sharp-looking and resembled more like a longsword with spikes and a glowing red gem on its handle. This was probably a temporary form, but it looked amazing!

“RAAAAH!”

Aquamarine roared with his brave voice, as he unleashed the power of an Ego Weapon at full speed, falling at an incredible, lightning speed over the parasite’s brain, slicing through it and quickly ending up slicing the entire monstrous meatball in half!

CLAAAAASHHH!!!

“GRYYYAAAAEEEEEEGGH….!”

The Chimera gave a horribly pitiful groan, which quickly ended. The gigantic body was sliced in half and I quickly checked the status, the HP was finally zero… bastard took more than I thought. Ugh, before I could even reach the floor, I felt the burden. Using Daos with this small soul causes a burden that weakens me for a bit, exhausting my body. Now it felt as if all the food I ate was gone and I felt extremely hungry too.

“Phew, we finally did it, mama!” Aquamarine celebrated. He flew down below towards me, turning back into the necklace form while finding me in the floor quite sickly, my entire body was filled with bruises and cracks too, it would take a little while to recover, I fear we’ll have to take a small break before moving down.

My Chaotic Beasts slain the chimera beasts with the rest of the team, they were not the swiftest and the majority ended dying, but Luminous was someone very strong, and he took care of the rest while I attempted to help to get more EXP shared for me, although I had gotten more than enough I think! Phew, I am so beat, I want to eat a lot before fighting any god damn boss.

Ding!

Level 36, I am getting closer to Level 40, and then level 50 so I can finally evolve again… But all of this and only four levels? I guess I was overestimating these monsters. I need whole armies for more EXP. Those demons are bringing me a lot of EXP whenever the war begins, but I fear that by participating I might end up becoming the same slaughterer I once was in Genesis… So what do I even do? How can I do that without feeling bad about it- Ah, it doesn’t matter, I should better concentrate in my new Skills. Whatever happens in the war, I’ll deal with it accordingly. If I see the elves defending their territory, which I am allied with, the most basic thing I can do is fight with them, I’ve already killed demons that attempted to kill me or kill my summoner, that should be enough justification for my troubled mind.

Anyways, moving on the skills, I got two new ones, a normal and a Title skill. The normal one seems to be related to what I’ve done with Aquamarine, while the title one is weird… but expected. Is there any god looking at me? Aside from Luminous, I doubt it, so probably the Soul Book is just roleplaying or something… Well, whatever’s the case, I quickly decided to mop the floor out of carcasses and store them all inside my Item Box, we had a small break to take and then… whatever is dwelling in the depths of the dungeon!

…I hope it gives a more generous amount of EXP; this feels like such a slow progression after all the power leveling of killing three Demon Lords.
