Epic Of Caterpillar

-----

After Ova accepted Kireina's offer, she was granted several powers on a whim, as she suddenly connected to Kireina's soul.

"What is this?" she wondered.

"I've used Divine Soul Connection, this grants you some of my powers, a part of them, with them, and your knowledge, aid my clones into building the Totems as fast as possible. Ah, with this buddy in the mix," said Kireina, as she showed Ova the little Bubu.

"A totem…"

Ova suddenly gained a lot of inspiration out of nowhere, as she realized that her Law Comprehension was… being shared with Kireina and vice versa!

"What…! My Law Comprehension of Life and Nature increased so much… over 70%! Is this the one you have too?! And the other Law Comprehensions also increased…" she said in surprise.

"That's right, through this method it is possible to share Law Comprehension temporarily. However, it is hard to keep connected in battle unless we fuse, so it is better for these situations. There is a special area where you can leave a soul clone and share the comprehension of everyone a little bit, hastening your comprehension of everything. But that's not the topic as of now. What we need to do is move. Let's get to it," said Kireina.

"Alright!"

Ova quickly rushed into the scene with Kireina, as the two began to work into a Totem at flashing speed.

In fact, they had already designed it and had the entire blueprint inside their minds, Kireina shared it with everyone across her clones and they all began to move automatically, countless materials were harvested all across the entire divine realm and brought here in mere seconds, continuously, as rivers after rivers of items appeared and piled up.

Ova and Kireina alongside everyone around them placed each item where they needed to be, even Kireina's wives and children were here, well, some of them, as others were with her other body beneath the central continent.

Countless divine runes were placed in the ground, fusing with materials, absorbing them, and assimilating them. While formations emerged one after another, and Ova learned about the Grand Formations that Kireina made using pocket formations, which only gave Ova an amazing idea, fusing them into the new Totem!

Into the totem formation and the totem divine technique scroll that was being made, many factors were applied at incredibly precise and flashing speed, Ova and Kireina who shared memories now were incredibly efficient at doing everything.

It seemed insane as Bubu glanced at how everything was being designed and made at time record.

Some of Kireina's children who were too exhausted to help anymore played with the small caterpillar, while their mother and her new ally continued their work.

"Is this creature named Bubu?" wondered Nirah, as she cutely glanced at the caterpillar in the palm of her hands, Bubu licked her nose with its long nose.

"Hehe, it tickles!" she chuckled.

As Nirah glanced at it, her tail seemed utterly terrified. Unlike the naïve Nirah, the new mind of Megusan, the old Megusan was still inside her snake-headed tail, who glanced at the scene with horror.

"W-What is that being…?! Such enormous Chaos Attribute power… T-This is even more horrifying than Kireina itself! It feels as if it were glaring at my very soul, at my very being! Nirah, how can you not notice thisssss?! Gyeeeggh…!"

Megusan fell unconscious as Nirah noticed it.

"Eh? Megu-chan?" asked Nirah. "Megu-chan" was the new nickname that the ancient Megusan had instead of tail-chan. He had argued against it but in the end, Nirah addressed him like this from now on…

And it wasn't as if Nirah didn't notice Bubu's overwhelming power, but she was just used to it because it was very similar to her mama. And in fact, she liked it a bit.

"You smell and feel like mama a bit, Bubu-chan. Wanna be my pet?" asked Nirah.

"Buuu!"

Bubu licked her nose some more but then waved her head.

"Bubu…"

"Oh, I guess you're already contracted with mama, aren't you?" she asked.

"Bubuuu!"

The caterpillar nodded.

"Do you like mama a lot, Bubu?" asked Nirah.

"Bubububuububuuuu!"

Bubu nodded a million times. There was something within Bubu that made it see Kireina as the closest thing it could ever have similar to a mother. Something inner within Bubu was obsessed with Kireina the moment it put its eyes on her.

Perhaps it was her delicious and appetizing Chaos Origin Root, which was ideal for Bubu, or how she was able to rescue it from the eternal imprisonment where it was thanks to Kireina's Summoning it…

Despite Bubu seemingly being like a child, it had a complex mind within the personality of a toddler, and it was already very curious about this new world and the vast possibilities there were within it. What awaited Bubu in the future now that it had arrived at this new and strange Universe? It couldn't wait to devour the endemic beings of this world, of course, and soon enough, it would enjoy it thoroughly!

However, for now, Vudia wanted to carry it.

"You've carried Bubu for way too long now, Nirah, it's my turn! Let me, let mee!" said Vudia.

"Sheesh, alright, Vudia-chan!" said Nirah, as she pouted a bit. She liked Bubu a lot and didn't want to let it go.

"Hehe, he's like a little caterpillar baby thing!" said Ailine.

"Yeah! I think mama said she was a caterpillar too, right?" asked Vudia.

"Bubu?!" asked Bubu.

"You didn't know? She was! Is this coincidence?" wondered Vudia.

"I don't know, but maybe Bubu has something to do with that!" said Ailine.

"Perhaps you were summoned because she has like… Maybe a Caterpillar is her mystical spirit animal or something," said Belle, who was at the side.

"Mama showed us Bubu's status, and it said it was born from a Chaos egg, I wonder if Bubu is similar to grandmother Chaos…" said Ailine.

"Oh yeah! Maybe Bubu is like the equivalent of grandma in another world!?" asked Vudia.

"Bubuee?!"

Bubu didn't know about any grandma or what they were even talking about anymore. And he felt utterly lost in the conversation at this point.

"What should we do with it? Do we keep it as a pet?" asked Vudia.

"Bubu?!"

"No! It is mama's summon!" said Nirah.

"Buhh… I want a Maxima Summon too…" sighed Vudia.

"I bet you'll get a very shiny one!" said Ailine.

"Maybe you'll get a slime one? Uwah! Wouldn't it be cool to have Maxima Summons?" wondered Vudia.

"Yeah! I wonder if mama will ever share her Dao," said Ailine.

"I-I don't think she can do such a thing… yet. She did say that by eating the things produced by Fafnir and Electra, we can get Residual Dao Essence and slowly form a Dao Fragment of their Dao though," said Belle.

"Yeah, Dao is complicated, I am fine with my own powers. Being a Great Goddess is already a big achievement!" said Nirah.

"Yeah but it's not as cool as having Dao! We are all Great Goddesses now," said Ailine.

"Graaaaooo!"

Suddenly, Fafnir emerged from behind her big sisters.

"Ah, Fafnir-chan!"

"Graaaoo!"

Fafnir was caught by her sisters, as he was flapping his newly developed draconic wings but was flying rather clumsily around.

"There, don't go around flying!" said Ailine.

"Yeah, you're still a novice in flying stuff," said Belle.

"Yeah! We can teach you tough! We all help each other," said Vudia.

"Grao? Gra! Grao!"

Fafnir suddenly noticed Bubu as it leaped over it, Bubu felt a sudden dread encompass its body as it jumped away.

CRUNCH!

"Fafnir, don't try to eat it, it's Bubu, mama's new summon!" said Nirah.

"Grao gra?"

"No! No food!" said Ailine.

"Graooo…" sighed Fafnir.

"Uwah, what's that?"

Suddenly, the little Scarlet arrived now. She had decided to sneak into the divine realm because she was bored of waiting in the underground. If she were to be needed, she would teleport.

She came eating a large grilled monster leg, it seemed to be a scaled leg, so it was perhaps a dragon of some sort which she had casually killed and grilled.

"Scarlet-chan! Look, this is Bubu," said Nirah, showing Bubu to the girl.

"Bu… bu? Can I eat it?"

Bubu suddenly felt two enormous invisible jaws pressing like deadly forces over its body, although Bubu was so tough that even Scarlet's jaws that ate entire Gods and Great Gods alive couldn't bite on it.

"Bubueeehhggh…"

"Stop it, it's not food…!" said Vudia.

"Eh? Ouch, it's so hard… Can't eat him anyways," said Scarlet, as she felt like her mandibles hurt a bit by trying to bite Bubu.

"Bubuuu!" Bubu got angry, but the girls were all the daughters of Kireina, so it couldn't get too overly angry, so it only roared.

"Hehhe, you're cute, not dinner!" said Scarlet.

"Its name is Bubu," said Ailine.

"Bubu… Why such a weird name? Did mama ran out of names?" sighed Scarlet.

"Mom said that Mama was sometimes good at names and other times pretty lame," said Ailine.

"Auntie Rimuru said that?!" asked Vudia.

"Yeah! She said she was named after an anime character of mama's world," said

"Oh, now that's weird," said Belle.

"Fafnir! We need your help, can you come?"

Kireina called up to Fafnir as a spatial slime clone emerged at his side and teleported him away.

Electra came right afterward as if synchronized with Fafnir disappearing.

However, she wasn't by herself but was mounting a gigantic mech made with her Dao of Technomancy. It was incredibly powerful and emanated immense quantities of divine power.

The mech resembled a Power Ranger's mech, it was made out of various parts.

"TRUUUUMMM!"

The mech walked over the floor and then sat cross-legged near the girls. Electra and the Harpy Chicks that were inside jumped outside and met their siblings.

"Uwah! So cool! Were you guys out adventuring in the mech?" asked Scarlet.

"We were!"

"Chuu, it was a hard battle."

"But we maintained the justice of the world, even if… by a little bit!"

"But as long as we can bring a smile to our people, our efforts and sacrifices are worth it."

"That's why… We fight for our people!"

"Ah, justice! So refreshing at times!"

"Hehe, they're inspired."

The harpy siblings were all talking very chunni stuff, the other siblings were left quite speechless.

"Me…! Leader!" said Electra, she already knew how to speak at this young age, showing her amazing intellect.

"Of course!"

"Yeah, little sis is the leader this time around…"

"Not red ranger…"

"Don't get like that, hahah!"

"Look, Electra, check out this caterpillar," said Belle.

"Eh? Cater… pillar?"

"Electra, Bubu, come here please!"

Kireina's voice called, as a spatial slime clone emerged and teleported both away.

"Eh? They're gone!" said Vudia.

"I guess mama need them for the thing she's crafting." Said Belle.

"I wonder what it is…" wondered Ailine.

The girls decided to go take a look.

And what they found was…
