Epic Of Caterpillar

So these guys were a pain to deal with because they wouldn't talk even when I tried to brainwash them using illusion magic, they would remain still as if they didn't even were people… I feel like they were just doing this stuff because they were ordered or something, by someone so strong they couldn't disobey them, such as Mammon.

I guess the wielder of the Primordial Sin of Greed is a strong little fellow, he got the perks to intimidate even our little friends here to force them to do his bidding without any issues!

But with us? It was very hard so I ended eating them around while we fought them, the ones that ended surviving were tied up using my threads, but these guys were not faltering at all! They really wanted a piece of this cake.

Well, whatever, I decided to ignore them and try to close the gate.

The gate was a massive gate of glowing black and blue colors, like a massive portal to another place. It was quite interesting to see how it worked, it had an arc of gray stone around it infused with runes and the like, where the people went into to well, get to another place.

I created a slime clone and threw it there.

F L A A A A S H!

The thing that happened was pretty ugly, it got fried and died instantly! Wow, that sucked.

I guess you can't get through here without their permission, yes? Then we'll have to improvise a way to make them give me their permission.

So I began using all sorts of spells on them, nightmare magic, poison, everything, I even made them say whatever words I wanted, but nothing worked. I couldn't change their intentions.

Or maybe Mammon is the one that has to allow us? Oh well, I decided to improvise something else instead, and expanded my entire body into a mass of red flesh and chaos, and devoured the entire gate, the entire portal, I ate it.

P O O O O F F F!

It quickly disappeared and then I swallowed it and tore it apart into tiny pieces until it was all gone. Using my superior mind and the help of the System and Andromeda, I began calculating its recreation. I started throwing a lot of materials that my other body put inside of my Inventory so I could take them out, and in a few minutes, I made up a Formation using a lot of Space and Time Attribute Divine Materials. I also used the power of the Dao of Gates, which was amazing for this one to the point it looked doable to duplicate the creation of a Prince of Hell.

Anyways, using the power of other Path Jewels such as the Space and Void Path jewel I had which was already at Supreme God Level without me doing anything over it, I recreated a new gate by myself.

Everyone looked at it while smiling and nodding, as if saying "naturally, you would do it anyways, why were you even worrying so much"… I KNOW! Agh, what's wrong with wanting to try to be more decent?

I remember when I was weaker, I used to be way more monstrous than I am now, but now that I grew strong, I want to do things politely because it became boring to use brute force for everything, it felt dull, unsatisfactory, even.

So because of that, I want to rewrite how I do stuff and do it better, to try to be a better person, because I know I can be a nice person, right, ghost man?"

I looked at the forgotten ghost before me, he looked at me with a monstrous and wailing expression, he wasn't getting me at all.

"Ugh, you're so disgusting…" I sighed.

CLASH!

He disappeared in an instant, I ate him, I also ate all the other ones left, I was done with this race of ugly ghost people, they're the worst, really. They forced me to do genocide! I will never forget this, they left me with a big scar, all because of them wanting to eat my emotions.

"I guess you just ate them all! All that talk about being polite…" said Zehe.

"S-Shut up!" I sighed.

"Haha! They're all gone now, POOF! Gone! Bwahahaha!" laughed Oga.

"Come on Oga, don't be like that with me…" I sighed.

"Dear you said you wanted to talk politely with them but now you made them all go extinct." Sighed Nesiphae.

"I know… I know what I said before! Anyways, let's get through this gate, I am going to beat Mammon to death and get his Primordial Sin." I said.

"You sound awfully confident over it, but let's try it, I guess… What's the worst that can happen, dying? I guess." Said Redgaria.

"Dying is not an option here, we'll do some tricky little things around here to not die, so all of you stick to me well enough." I said.

"Alright! Let's get to it." said Zehe.

"Yeah, let's go." Said Nesiphae.

"I wonder what's behind this…" said Oga.

"Another hell?" asked Kaguya.

"Well yeah…" sighed Nereid

We got through the gate and as obviously, we got through the other part of the Hell Layer, reaching the Layer of Greed just as I had copied the Gate. I couldn't adjust it to go anywhere else though.

When we got here, I closed the portal and what we found was… the outskirts of the Pandemonium, and the Layer of Hell where the power of Greed lies within. Everything in here was… red, like before. I guess Hell is not really that original.

Actually, it was, when we walked some more, we reached an area where there was a massive sea of smelting gold, people were being constantly thrown there by demons, and they were constantly clawing their way back only to be thrown back into the gold once more. It was a very sadistic stuff.

"Wow this is messed up!" said Rimuru.
