Epic of Caterpillar

Palami, Raito, and Asure were born as Elemental Demons, a rare species of Demons that evolve into "Lords" of each Element, the only three in their small village, when they were ravaged by the Armies of the many human-governed Kingdoms and Empires in the Realm of Vida, they were swiftly made into slaves.

After having gone through many terrible experiences while clinging to life together, they were all ultimately saved when Kireina rescued them alongside many other slaves. They were given shelter, good, and also a new reason to keep moving forwards.

To grow stronger and fight the forces that had destroyed their home, while also following their Lady, Kireina, with her dreams and goals that surpassed what anybody had ever thought about.

However, out of nowhere, she was gone. Still hoping for her return, even if she had to defy destiny and death itself, the three Demons joined Truhan and Celica\'s forces in a defensive battle against the incoming army of the Spirit Plane.

They managed to fend off the otherworldly invaders only for a bit before a bright light were to absorb them all inside of this Realm. They had thought this was it for them, however, they instead ended finding themselves in a strange, bright world, strange yet beautiful.

Wandering across the land, they fought and escaped from deadly Spirit Beasts, while staying together like the team they always were, until they rescued a group of Spirit People in a small forest from stronger Spirit Beasts.

"Phew, are you alright?" Palami wondered, her shining bright armor and her beautiful blonde hair waving by the wind made the many Spirit people that they rescued gasp by her alien beauty.

"A-Are you an otherworldly dweller?!"

"T-To think someone like them would help us…"

"Thank you, please don\'t pay mind to the younglings words."

A few of the spirit children spoke rudely, but the oldest of the group of four quickly bowed his head, thanking the trio of Demons.

"Who are you calling otherworldly dweller, you brat?! You\'re the aliens here!" Raito groaned angrily, his hair letting out zaps of lightning.

"H-Hey, calm down a bit Raito!" Asure sighed, his huge body unbefitting of his gentle nature.

"Ahahaha, don\'t worry about it." Palami laughed, trying to calm down Raito. "Anyways, a lot happened… We\'re not enemies though, but we were attacked by beings from this world, who are you? Are there more people like you around?"

"W-Well…" The chief glanced at the other hunters at his side.

At the end, the people invited the trio of demons to their small village, the trio was surprised by the beautiful, otherworldly architecture, and their "fleshy" appearances certainly brought the attention of many inhabitants that glanced through the windows of their crystal-made homes.

"You must know very little about us, the armies of the Spirit Queen has relentlessly been attacking your world. We can\'t do anything about it, we\'re merely villagers living in this Floating Spirit Island… But if you want to know about us…"

The Spirit People simply referred themselves as "Spiritians" and were nothing like the bug-like soldiers they fought before. They had mostly human-like appearances, but had beautiful tiny wings made of crystals behind them.

Their skin varied in colors, depending in their elemental affinity, but they all had a translucent, crystal-like skin, and a brighter colored hair. They often called themselves after the ores and crystals the embodied.

"My name is Amethyst; I am the chief of this small village…" The older Spiritian spoke, with a gentle face and short purple crystal-like hair. "Our people is spread across these many floating islands, but there are also large Empires and Kingdoms to the Upper Spirit Heavens. Right now, you are within the Lower Spirit Heaven, right above the Endless Sea of Clouds."

"T-This world is THAT big?!" Raito was shocked, drinking the mildly sweet and fruity drink they gave to them. "Woah… Ain\'t no way we\'ll be able to go back home now…"

"You\'re being a bit too pessimistic, aren\'t you?" Asure sighed. "About that Spirit Queen, who is she?"

"The Spirit Queen is the newest Supreme Spirit that governs our world. In our World, the strongest of Spirits govern the Upper Spirit Heavens, sitting above the Spirit Throne. They\'re like our Gods." Amethyst explained. "By devouring Spirit Beasts, we can grow stronger and gain new magic and abilities through developing our Spirit Heart." The man pointed at his crystalline chest, as the trio noticed a heart-shaped purple crystal.

"So it\'s her that is trying to invade Genesis, our world…" Sighed Palami. "We didn\'t even wanted to come here, but when we were fending off her bug-like army, a bright light sucked us in…"

"Oh…" The chief stopped sipping his warm drink. "Then you were absorbed by our World through the Spirit Dao Fluctuations… How unfortunate."

"Spirit… Dao Fluctuations?" Asked Raito. "The hell\'s that?"

"A natural phenomenon where a large quantity of Spirit Dao Particles gather in the skies and create a huge tornado that distorts the heavens, because of that huge crack in the sky, it most likely affected the outside as well…" Sighed Amethyst. "The crack can\'t be seen at all times because of the clouds and floating islands, but it is to the far south."

"I see…" Palami sighed. "But our friends… We can\'t leave them behind while we escape. I can feel some really close, should we go look for them first? We can\'t really bother about the Spirit Queen or whatever, her power is way beyond ours. We need to concentrate in the present."

"The present…" Said Raito. "Talking about that though, is the Spirit Queen evil? Why is she trying to do this?"

"She\'s… we don\'t exactly know well." Sighed Amethyst. "She is certainly a greedy woman. She usurped the throne of her sister, the former Spirit Queen, and sealed her within the Spiritual Dark Depths, below the Sea of Clouds. Since then, she has been recruiting young men across many villagers to her army. She\'s the governor of over ten Kingdoms and Empires which were all unified by her sister in the past. Her power and authority is the highest in our world…"

"Yikes, that only sounds like it is even worse than we imagined." Raito sighed. "But the Aesir were colluding with her… And also they were collecting Yggdrasil Trees, what\'s up with that?"

"Yggdrasil Trees…?" Amethyst spoke. "That\'s… So that\'s what she\'s trying to do. It is because of our Spirit Tree, the Ancient Yggdrasil that exists in the highest heaven, it was withered. If she\'s gathering them from other worlds, she\'s most likely trying to help the tree regrow anew, or create new ones? But her methods… they\'re too barbaric. I\'m sorry that we cannot do much for you other than offer some food for your help."

"It\'s nothing to worry about." Palami smiled gently. "For now, we should go look for the rest of our friends, and-"

TRUUUUMMM…!

Suddenly, a huge impact hit the barrier around the village, conjured by several bright pillars surrounding the entire sector.

"Chief! A strange Spirit Beast has appeared! It is trying to attack the barrier!" A Spiritian flew inside of the chief\'s house.

"What?! But the barrier should make it so they don\'t detect us! How come?! Did somebody led that thing here?" Amethysts panicked.

Palami, Raito, and Asure quickly decided to help.

…

"Ahh~! What a wonderful monster I have created~ Now destroy those aliens, and while you\'re at it, have a small snack on those pathetic weaklings too!"
