Epic Of Caterpillar Chapter 287
Advertisement
-----
Ymir, seeing the power of the foreigners that accompanied his little brother and how they easily massacred his siblings, didn't even think twice about running away.
Ymir was strong, the strongest Blazing Ashura, and was born as a Divine Species, however, he valued his life over the others, and didn't saw any merit on risking it to save the people of his Nation.
Perhaps his father would have done it, but he, who never learned to value others, would never put anyone before him, and he would never decide to fight someone he couldn't win against.
Ymir left his mother on the castle, as he commanded all of his troops and civilians to form a massive army as the last stand, while he ran for his life, over the fastest fire lizard in the Nation.
"It doesn't matter! As long as I keep being alive, I can rebuild a nation again in no time! With my strength, I can enslave the women of other races, and make countless children! I will enslave everything that comes my way, and build a new nation! And when my power increases and I join the ranks of the gods, I will come for revenge, little brother!"
However, things were not going to go as Ymir thought.
Suddenly, a bright scarlet ray appeared behind him, as a beautiful and feminine figure revealed itself. A charming woman, with a large chest, wide hips, and fair white skin, her scarlet eyes shined brightly as her purple hair danced through the air. Behind her back, two large butterfly wings released an alluring floral scent.
One could think that she was a beautiful and matured fairy, but her scarlet eyes and the great goat-like horns over her head revealed that she was not a simple fairy. A demon would come to the mind of Ymir immediately. This belief was increased by the mischievous and sadistic smile of this woman.
Ymir immediately felt an incredible pressure go through his entire body, something that he has never felt on his entire life, something that could inflict fear even on him. Suddenly, the woman released some words, that only made Ymir more fearful, while also increasing his rage.
Suddenly, the ground shake as the floor seemed to have become alive. The floor, made of charcoal rocks and gray ground expanded itself as if it were mud and created a gigantic dome of over three hundred meters in the spawn of a second. Ymir's fire-lizard stopped in place and began to freak out, running away from the presence of the woman.
Ymir, on his desperation, decided to fight for his life, as there wasn't anything else to do. Thanks to the intel of his spies and magic artifacts, he knew that this woman was one of the members of the foreign group that came to his nation, killed the bandits and soldiers, and enslaved the weak citizens. He also knew that she was incredibly strong, and if he doubted for a second on his actions, he would die with regrets.
"I have to give it my all for a chance of survival… I, the great Ymir, cannot die today! Greatness awaits me in the plane of gods, a mere ant will not stand on my way!"
The fairy glanced at Ymir as he used his hidden transformation Skill, the one he had only used once to beat all of his siblings and enslave them afterward.
The Blazing Ashura's King's body bulged as countless of muscles bulged. His size increased several times, reaching five meters of height, and two new pairs of muscular and sturdy arms surged from his sides. Two new heads grew on each of his shoulders, as they grew giant white horns and countless tattoos shined brightly over his nude body.

Suddenly, an arc of heavenly flames appeared behind him as eight weapons made of his heavenly fire appeared in each of his hands. Ymir's appearance, which was originally that of an immature Blazing Ashura youth now resembled a majestic god of flames.
Ymir's eyes shined with blazing flames as he overlooked the fairy with a confident smirk.
"You are privileged to be able to see my Godly Ashura transformation! Gahahaha! Now watch closely, whore! As I pulverize your flesh until nothing, not even ashes remain!"
However, although the fairy seemed a little bit amazed by the sudden transformation of her opponent, she didn't cower in fear at all, and Ymir's overwhelming Aura seemed to not have any effect in her.
"Hey, I can do that too," She said.
Ymir was taken aback, and almost tripped over the ground as having such a big body made him lose his balance, the lack of training on this form was putting a burden on his physique.
"What?" He asked. Ymir wondered that if this fairy was really a fairy or even a demon, there wasn't any hint of doubt on her words, she seemed to be serious about having a similar transformation to Ymir.
"D-Don't mess with me…! Diieeeeeeee!!!"
However, Ymir didn't falter and immediately begun an assault of powerful techniques coupled with his strong magic, hundreds of punches, slashes and stabs rained over the Fairy, as her body began to turn into minced meat and exploded into pieces.
Ymir was afraid of what could this being true and continued to pulverize the flesh just as he said. Although he felt like his fire wasn't doing much damage, his physical attacks were easily bypassing the delicate-looking fairy defenses. Explosions of heavenly blazes filled the dome as Ymir pulverized every last remnant of his opponent, who didn't manage to do a single attack…
And just as Ymir was about to celebrate, the small pieces of slimy meat on his surroundings were enveloped in a dark mist, with a burst of energy and seemingly an explosion, Ymir had to cover his body with his arms and weapons to protect himself.
"W-What…?!"
As the explosion dissipated and the energy released did as well, Ymir once again glanced at the pieces of meat that he missed previous positions. But instead of there being any slimy meat, an enormous, metal giant stood there.
Ymir tried to clean his eyes, dumbfounded by this sight. "Am I in some kind of dream?" He thought.
"D-Did she revived…?! How could it be?! What is this?! W-What…?! Whaaaaaat…?!"
A colossal metallic body, with a seemingly humanoid shape, stood in front of Ymir, its height was of over a hundred meters tall. Eight giant arms made of different metallic colors moved as if they had lived on their own, the body of the metallic giant had countless of different decorations, depicting thousands of monster's species, some that Ymir had never seen before.
Instead of one head, the being possessed five, that of a beautiful and charming demoness, that of a raging wolf, that of a fire wyvern, that of a sand wyvern and that of an azure dragon. To top it all, sixteen different wings raised on its back, each one having a different design as if they were taken directly from living monsters and attached to this giant abomination.
In the past, before seeing this, Ymir had thought of his transformation as a true godly appearance, and was worshiped due to this. However, his height, which was of a measly five meters, could not compare to the titan in front of him.

Now, Ymir found himself as the ant in this situation. Ymir couldn't even move in fear, as the overwhelming Aura that this titan released was enough to paralyze him completely, and even inflict him with others negative status ailments and partial curses of various types.
If Ymir had trained his [Status Effect Resistance] and [Curse Resistance] Skills, he may have been able to free himself from this overwhelming presence and run away however he could. Ymir's lack of diligence was only but a small fraction of the reason for his demise.
He had thought that the citizens calling this foreigner group "gods" were an exaggeration and that most of the powers they showed, that he was able to do them as well. But now, he believed the same thing as those foolish and ignorant citizens that he despised for their weakness.
On Ymir's eyes, what was in front of him was a true god, what he thought of himself was never the truth. He wasn't a god, but just a bad and laughable imitation.
Someone who had just died in front of him blasted into pieces, had revived itself, and transformed into a being that Ymir couldn't even fathom to comprehend. Nothing seemed to make sense, well, the only right thing was his mind, filled with despair and fear.
"Did you have your fun? To think that I didn't even have to use my Resurrection… Your attacks were quite tough, I give you that, if I were a normal fairy or just the Sin of Lust and nothing else, I would have most likely died. Divine Species are pretty strong… Did you use Divine Energy… Hm, that just makes you more appetizing~"
"Aaaah…"
"Huh? Did a cat got your tongue…? Anyways, what do you think, Ymir? Can I compete with your transformation? Fufufu…" The voice of the woman resonated through the entire earth dome; it was so loud that it almost made Ymir's ears explode.
"A-Aaah… Aaaah! Aaah!!!"
Ymir couldn't do anything, he couldn't move, he couldn't even talk properly. He could only cry and cry, as he submerged himself in despair and fear. He was going to die now.
Before absolute might and power, Ymir lost his sanity and yelled like a crazed man. He kneeled on the ground and began to struggle with his own existence, the Aura of the titan overwhelmed his entire body and made him tremble constantly. Ymir's three heads, which had two eyes each, being six eyes, cried, releasing big and warm tears of pure fear.
"Aah! Aaaaah! Gyaaah!"
The metallic Titan, whose name is Kireina, sighed.
"What? You are not even trying? Oh well, I shouldn't abuse this form too often, or people will just begin to convulse on the ground without even giving me some entertainment…"
Kireina then, shapeshifted her demon tail as if it were a tentacle made of metal and grabbed of Ymir's struggling body. She cut down his two legs, and two arms, as Ymir saw with horror the torture he was going through, he yelled in more pain and agony.
"Gyaaaaahh!!! I don't want to die! I don't want to dieeeee!!! Gyaaaaah! Help! Help me, father! Mother! Heeelp!"
Kireina's main head, the head of a demoness, opened its metallic jaw, as it was revealed to Ymir, that only an abyss of countless fangs awaited him, twisting while releasing corrosive saliva.
Ymir yelled even louder.
"I-I don't want to dieee! Gyaaaaa-"
CHOMP
*Crunch, crunch*
Crunching sound filled the earth dome as Kireina's main head devoured Ymir alive. The fresh and warm blood filled her mouth with a delicious and refreshing taste, the bones were incredibly sturdy, yet delicious and salty, and the living flesh was tender and had a smoky hint to it. What differentiated other Blazing Ashura from Ymir, was that Ymir had a particular, heavenly taste.
"So, this is the taste of a Divine Species, delicious"
With the help of the Skill [Divinity Devour], Kireina was able to successfully consume a being that possessed Divine Energy on its body. Although it wasn't a god, it was a mortal equivalent to it.
Afterward, she grabbed the legs and arms that she had cut down and assimilated them to her body, using the Skill [Assimilation].
A new surge of power ran through Kireina's titanic body as she was overwhelmed by an ecstasy that she had never experienced before.
On this day, a mere mortal ate a future god and broke his destiny, which was filled with fortune and greatness at the side of the gods.
-----
Ymir was indeed an amazing meal, his flesh was incredibly tender and juicy, I think the only thing that could compare was Athos, but only by a little. Ymir had a very strong "heavenly" flavor, that must be the high concentration of Divine Energy that he was born with.

I have never felt this full before. It was as if I have eaten an immensely fulfilling meal like never before… So, these are the effects of eating a Divine Species...
I should have saved some for Ryo, he may have benefited from this, but I think that he wouldn't have been able to eat this flesh, he lacks the [Divinity Devour] Skill, and eating such concentrated quantities of Divine Energy may endanger his life.
I shapeshifted into a giant metallic dragon and flew through the "sky" of the Lower Realm, close by to the battlefield surrounding the Blazing Ashura Nation. Things were going very nice, my family and the villagers and undead were all working together and the enemy side was on the verge of completely losing.
I decided to watch for the moment, but when the enemy side noticed my overwhelming presence, they dropped their weapons immediately and surrendered… Well, my side still killed them for EXP, even if they were trying to surrender.
After half an hour, it was done and now the villagers took over the entire City of Inferno, entered the Castle and found the Queen, some guards tried to protect her but became EXP without any problems. The Queen was then taken by the citizens and decapitated in the City's citadel. As the Queen's head rolled through the ground, the people celebrated, they were really tired of this government.
This time I let Ryo eat the Queen and some of the siblings that were in the war, he gained some interesting abilities and his Ashura's powers were enhanced, the Royal Bloodline has those effects, huh. Zehe also ate the Royals which were of the Arcane Flames Ashura species and gained stronger Fire Affinity, which when coupled with her Shadow, Dark and Black Flames Affinities, became even stronger.
The city of Inferno then celebrated a big feast, although the people did not eat the corpses of the Blazing Ashura, only monsters and Familiars that I summoned. After going back to my humanoid form with everyone watching, they began to worship me as the Demon Dragon Goddess, and when I summoned Familiars for them to eat, I was worshiped as the Goddess of Life and Harvest.
I ate more of the leftover Blazing Ashura, but I wasn't able to gain more Skills, and my family neither, so I decided to not waste them as I turned them into Undead, adding a couple of thousand more Blazing Ashura Undead into the army.
After a fulfilling feast and the celebration with the rest of the citizens, who had already submitted to me unknowingly and became my own Kingdom citizens through the System, I decided to take a small break with my family. My children needed to rest, while I had some time together with my wives.
[Calculating EXP gained…]

[Kireina] acquired the Title [Divine Blazing Ashura Empress]!]

I Was Reincarnated as Someone's Mana??
My name is Magnus Karlsson, and by a series of rather unfortunate events that I had absolutely no say in, I was killed and reincarnated. In this story, you will follow Magnus as he tries his very best to survive in a world that's been thrown into chaos, together with the man whose mana he is, Allan Woodsworth. Well, not a man per se, more of a little boy who has no idea what the fuck is going on, but, you know... I'm sure it'll be fine. Nothing bad will happen to the pair. Nope. No abandoned kids here. Anyhow. The world that Magnus has been thrown into is one perversed by the will of a great mage who, three thousand years ago, decided that it would be a great idea to infuse all the people of the earth with so-called "orbs". These magical crystals allow their handler to control and generate mana, which they can then use to become mages. Most barely use them, since the mana cost of doing such a little thing as a fireball spell is absolutely ridiculous. Said mage, Theodore Cromwell, Magnus used his resources to infuse not only humans with orbs, but animals as well, giving rise to what the mage community calls "horrid perversions of nature", but what the common folk calls "monsters". Orbs can be used for much, and it is through orbs that people keep track on their level of mana and such, and destroying the orb of a monster is A, the only way to kill it and B, a good way to absorb extra mana and raise ones level. It is such an orb that Magnus has been tranformed into. ------ To those that care, I'm very sorry about the title, it's just that, well, it's very good to be blunt about isekais like this since people such as myself search precisely for this, so having super-serious names like "The Magnus of the World of Orbs" would turn people wanting a simple and fun isekai off. I hope you give this story a fair chance! ------ Edit: IWRASM now has a deviantart page!!! https://www.deviantart.com/thefunartcorner
