Epic Of Caterpillar

-----

As Kireina fought the Four Graces, a war unfolded outside of the domain she created to entrap these four goddesses.

The moment they saw how Kireina used her Warp Skill to appear out of the barrier and immediately entrap the four strongest gods on the battlefield to deal with by herself and her wives, the rest of her allies, friends, and family knew that she was counting on them to deal with the rest.

However, to fight against the three other Gods who had appeared above the skies, they needed to first break the barrier that entrapped them inside the Empire!

The Wyvern Family quickly joined hands, although their father was not present as he was called by Kireina within the Dark Steppes to fight at her side, the other Wyverns, Abellona, Aine, Adena, Titus, and Eshne had decided to stay within the Empire to protect it.

After having been recruited by Kireina months ago, the Wyverns had been sharpening their Skills, evolving, and becoming even stronger than before.

After undergoing great challenges in the Dungeon below the Grand Forest, the five wyvern siblings strengthened themselves and seemed to have finally caught up with their fellow allies and companions.

However, no matter how strong a mortal grew, against a God, their strength and abilities were meaningless.

They quickly realized this as the five wyverns used their combined breath attacks and spells, trying to break through the barrier, but seeing how it yield absolutely no results.

On top of that, they also felt as if the barrier was slowly draining their Mana and HP, slowly weakening them to the point that even their Regeneration Skills seemed to not be completely enough.

The Wyverns glanced at the sky, noticing the three figures left when Kireina and her wives disappeared with the four goddesses that had caused so much chaos down below, to the point of taking the lives of innocent citizens.

The three of them seemed to smile.

They were not simple mortals, although their bodies seemed to be smaller than them.

They were Demigods.

Abellona quickly noticed how overwhelming their pressures and prowess was, to the point that simply glancing at them made him shiver.

He, a respected Wyvern, a being above many others, was trembling now.

Not only him, but all of his siblings did so.

Although they once met with the Wyvern Gods, they were gentle and amicable, while also having suppressed most of their power.

However, unlike them, these Demigods just wished their death, and their Aura alone made their hearts ache in fear and despair.

Did they even stand a chance against such beings?

Against such beings so above them in almost everything?

Abellona gulped down saliva, as he was woken up from his daze by Titus.

"Oi, Abellona! Wake up already, we are in the middle of a fight! We gotta destroy this if we don't want to die!" roared Titus, the enormous and muscular Wyvern.

"I…! (Was I… doubting myself?)" wondered Abellona once more.

"You're not alone into this!" said Eshne.

"Abellona, get your shit together!" said Aine.

"Come on! What would Kireina-sama do in this situation? What would our dad do?" asked Adena.

What would Kireina do?

What would their father, the Wyvern Overlord do in this situation?

Wasn't it obvious?

Despite being mortals…

Despite being seen as weaker than Gods.

Kireina and the Wyvern Overlord fought bravely against them.

The Wyvern Overlord was currently at Kireina's side within the Dark Steppes, ragging an incessant and catastrophic battle against Hephaestus and his wives, immensely strong gods.

If they were not able to even put a dent on these Demigods, their children, who were clearly weaker than them… How would they be able to call themselves Kireina's allies and friends?

These thoughts were not only running through Abellona's minds but through the minds of most of his allies present.

"What with these mortals?"

"Did they just got paralyzed out of fear?"

"Mortals are really pathetic… Let's give them a swift end while our sisters get rid of Kireina, shall we?"

The three Demigods spoke, laughing maliciously as they raised their arms, their powerful Divine Energy began to leak out of their bodies, combining and forming an enormous magic circle, although it seemed that it was incredibly complex, seemingly taking some time to form.

Everyone, however, seemed on alert.

They already saw what the attack from those four goddesses did… if they were to again receive another one like that, the entire Empire would crumble into pieces and the people that are still evacuating would be annihilated.

They had to act, and quickly.

Abellona roared, as the wyverns did so as well.

"Alright…! Gods or not, we'll beat them up!!!" roared Abellona, as she enhanced his entire body with his Aura while activating the accessories equipped on the claws of his feet and arms.

His siblings did the same, like many others around them too.

Their entire beings began to be covered in enormous mechanical armors and bodysuits, resembling their appearance but unleashing a refreshing alien air, as if something that should not even belong to this world was being unleashed.

The three Gods glanced with intrigue, yet their confidence did not falter.

"Oh? More of those weird armors? What can the equipment crafted by mortals even do against us anyways?" they laughed, charging more power into their magic circle.

"We'll make sure to smack them like the ants they are…!"

"How dare they offend our father and steal our sister? Now it is time for them to learn their place…!"

All of the teams that Kireina had forged through many years finally came together, as an enormous army, wearing the powerful equipment that she had been designing since she got her hands into a Crafting Skill…

This was the culmination of Kireina's research, and also the culmination of all this time gathering allies and helping them grow to the point where they could finally fight at her side!

Now that Kireina and her wives were not present, they had to do everything they could to fulfill their lady's expectations!

"Let's not waste any more time then!!!" roared Titus, as the five siblings, now covered in enormous mechanical armors flew towards the barrier, their entire bodies flashing with their respective colors.

Flash!

Suddenly, the five of them came together as one!

A thunderous sound filled the entire battlefield, as lightning made of all the wyvern's colors fell over them!

An enormous dragon-like mechanical titan then emerged from this combination, a powerful being that no longer was the same as those wyverns trembling as they glanced the gods laugh at their faces!

Three heads, the head at the center was red and filled with rubies and other jewels, the left head was black and seemed furious, and the right head was green and seemed calm.

Their torso was gigantic, composed of layers after layers of Divine Materials resembling metal, enhanced with millions of magic circuits and cores of all kinds, alongside the body parts of Kireina.

They had six arms that had enormous and demon-like metallic claws, with an eye in each claw, and two pairs of enormous wings, each one was of a different color, from black, red, green, and orange.

An enormous tail waved in their backs, as it extended for at least 60 meters, covered in metallic scales and spikes.

"This power…!" muttered Abellona.

"This is it! This is the power that Kireina-sama had granted to us!" said Titus.

"This is the item… that we can use to fight against Gods!" said Eshne.

"We had trained so much to get our strength, now let use it through these artifacts, and let's defend our home!" said Aine.

"Fight for our home!" said Adena.

"GROWL!

The giant mechanical dragon roared, with its enormous body, it began to release countless storms made of flames, nature, and darkness, alongside its powerful triple breath cannon, and its giant claws that slowly began to tear down the barrier!

"I am with all of you, guys!" said a tiny voice, although it was very small and cute, they knew who this person was!

"Kireina-sama!" they all said at the same time.

"Well, not exactly! I am an amalgamation of her body parts and Slime Clones used for this equipment, but yeah, I am Kireina! I am with all of you, let's do this together!" she said, as she began to infuse even more power into the wyvern's attacks, which now came infused with God Devourer!

Boom!

Crash!

Clash!

As the wyverns slowly started to break through the barrier desperately, the rest of his allies began to act as well!

Giant mechs after giant mechs started to fuse with their partners, creating new and bigger forms to destroy the barrier with overwhelming force.

A giant humanoid mech emerged, seemingly made up of many wolf-shaped mechs, its entire body was enormous and powerful, as it roared like a wolf, tearing apart the barrier with its blades and roars.

"Let's do this, everyone!" roared Kekensha within the enormous mech.

"We can do this, with the power of docking!" said Wagyu.

"Let's fucking do it!!! Gyahahaha!" laughed Kurimu.

"United as one, we are capable of doing anything!" said Tsuchimizu.

"I can't believe we are doing this again… But yeah! Let's do it!" said Yuki.

Alongside the wolves and wyverns, there was the team of monkeys, one of the earliest allies that Kireina ever had, all of them had progressed tremendously since then, and although they faltered at first, after realizing that Kireina was the same as them, a mortal, but still fought so bravely for everyone' safety and future, they couldn't help but feel motivated!

The giant combination of their mechanical bodysuits formed an enormous and furious Monkey King!

Prideful and ferocious, resembling Son Goku, the Monkeys had merged into the incarnation of one of Earth's Legends!

Raising their enormous and metallic staff, the Monkey King flew through the skies on its floating cloud, attacking the barrier with tremendous attacks that combined all of the monkey's techniques and spells into one, showcasing devastating spectacles of colors!

"This… it feels as if we were made just for this moment!" said Kizuato.

"Kizuato, don't lose your focus, my friend!" said Yukan.

"I am clearly not used to all of this power!" said Goruden, barely controlling all of the power that their combination brought.

"Hmph, I usually like to act in the shadows, but this situation has forced me to join you together, don't dare falter!" said Jinsoku.

"Err… Let's use some magic too, shall we?" asked Meiji, as he commanded all of the Spirits infused into the enormous Monkey King Mech, as several lights of all colors floated around the mech, shaping as projectiles and exploding over the barrier, generating more and more cracks!

Within the crowd of mechanical giants, two giants flew through the skies, combining their mechs and becoming a greater being.

"Celica-chan, Kireina-sama is counting on us!" said Truhan, blazing with fiery determination.

"Sure thing! Let's do this not only for her, but for our home, our people, and also our children!" said Celica, smiling pridefully as their mechs combined, an enormous blazing demon covered in the dark flames of purgatory emerged from a storm of black fire, furiously glaring at the gods below the barrier.

Four crimson eyes, a crown of sharp horns of red and black, a large armor and enormous arms, with six arms and even wings made of black fire to boot!

It raised its axes as it flew towards the barrier, impacting it like a blazing meteor made of black fire!

CLASH!

Crack, crack!

The barrier finally began to crack even more, as tiny pieces fell into the ground, dissipating into nothingness!

The three Gods glared at this in surprise and awe!

And even a slight speck of… fear!

"What?!"

"Impossible! They're simple mortals…!"

"They couldn't possibly be able to… break through the barrier!" they said.

"Oh, is that what you think, you fuckers?!" asked a roaring voice below them and the barrier, as a giant mech that seemed to be the mechanization of death itself emerged from the crowd!

An enormous knight of death appeared, his body nearing one hundred meters, covered in metal and gothic-themed armor, with a skull made of metal as its head and its eyes blazing with phantasmagoric blue fire!

This was the Undead Team, composed of the first Undead-type soldiers that Kireina raised long ago, alongside the former Slave Team, they explored Kaggoth's Dungeon and grew incredibly strong from such an adventure, coming back to the Empire to finally protect it as much as they could, as this was their beloved home.

"Please, everyone, calm down a bit!" cried the Ghoul Boy and seemingly the leader of the team, Gufumin.

"Fufufu~ It makes me so happy to be one with Gufumin~! Nothing can stand in the side of our love!" laughed the malicious Futima.

"Gufufu, I'm so hungry, time to eat this barrier!" said the terrifying Katara.

"Sigh, with these girls it's always like this…" sighed the Dullahan Duruno.

The giant mechanical knight of death began to pierce the barrier by infusing its Phantasmal Aura, and the power and magic of the four Undead, eroding the barrier slowly thanks to the effects of God Devourer infused in each of their attacks!

Crack, crack!

The barrier finally began to fall apart, as small holes began to be revealed!

The three Demigods, Cabeiri, Cabeirides, and Thalia, children of Hephaestus, gnashed their teeth in anger!

"Impossible… they're actually breaking through the damn barrier!"

"Hurry up in the creation of the attack so we can blast them all away!"

"Fufu, let me give them some diversion!"

One of the Demigods, Thalia, opened a portal to her Divine Realm, unleashing countless Divine Beasts over Kireina's army.
